It may seem intentional, like leaving the blinker on by accident or the windshield wipers moving back and forth on a sunny day, but the last person who was aboard the Cormorant appears to have left the landing lights on. It is a terrible annoyance while flying and though the effect of lights moving is creative, it would be most welcome i the effect was either much subdued or removed.
That said, the model is beautiful and the ship is amazing!

It helps me find people firing from below me for moments I disable the overview

No! Stop taking away cool light effects! I miss the blinking police light on the Federation Navy Comet!

Guns retract when entering warp, why not silly landing lights on a ship that never "lands" but instead docks. I guess I preaching to the mob.

Not hijacking the thread: same topic, slightly different ship.

Harbingers lights look so awkward in space. At least is there a way to turn it off in settings? It looks pretty stupid to me personally, and doesn't help me in any way.

UNLESS: CCP makes a bonus where coming towards a target head on affects the other pilots field of view due to ships having their bright lights on. Otherwise, please allow an option to remove.

Don't get mad because you don't appreciate the art that is the cormorant.

You shouldn't be flying enemy ships in the first place.

CCP loves lights, that's why they left a glowing lego man in the Dominix. Look underneath from behind.

It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.

We need shadows behind planets so the lights actually have some use. It'd be like a spaceship version of Dead Space Pirate

If you think this is trolling you won't last long here, and if CCP goes by this thread they probably won't change it.

How do you Comet pilots always bring it back to about you??

Because it was one of the first ships to be significantly altered in this way (lighting effects, lights, disgusting cammo, etc).

How did you Veterans start?
