looks like the old model with less details ? have they gone backwards? the rear end looks like a plastic toy now with no details. i hope this is just temp. Also, will the golem get a brand new model?

i mean i looked at some old videos like 3 years old and the golem looks like this plain and flat. Are you sure they didnt use the last generation model?

because everyone was complaining about how ugly it was...

So, they figured they'd beat it with the ugly stick to show us just how ugly it really could get...

Change for change sake strikes again!

Enough with the "Change for change's sake" when you really know less than nothing of what you're talking about.

The old Golem model wasn't compatible with having animations and was just a recolor of the T1 Raven. All four Marauders are due to have models that are distinct from their T1 progenitors and the Golem is no exception to that.

That doesn't mean that the Golem model looks particularly good compared to the other three, however...

The areas that the 'animation' currently resides are essentially the same. They very well could have animated those very same texture areas on the old model, and it would have been just fine. You didn't actually go back and compare the models side by side did you? Prove me wrong. The two top panels are nearly identical. And the bottom ones, though not identical, have no visible hindrance to being animated.

why did they have to change the whole ship if they are only modifying the top and bottom of the golem? i mean the wings has been flatten out , all the lines and crurves are gone the rear end looks plain all the details are removed. i dont understand

Having seen how horrid other models looked on Sisi as they were getting updated, I like the look of the Golem. I liked the look of it before, now I'm REALLY liking it. The gull wings are spiffy.

Blanking signatures doesn't seem to work, so this is here.

I do not know what is happening with the CCP, can create a awesome ship as they did with the scorpion, with the tempest, with the maller, the stabber, or more recently with the apocalypse that are ships that were well done with lots of details and beautiful.

Then make a new model golum that looks more like a model of paper or card and not one spacecraft.

In my opinion if you want the model to be different from the raven that gives origin okay, but do something that is in accordance with the standards that have been set up in recent alterations to ships.

The model remains I refuse to be seen flying a golem, even if it might be able to equip doomsday devices, and have infinite tank.

The golem model in SISI looks... looks like my nephew designed it.

As good a job as ccp did with the Kronos, why do they have to destroy the ICONIC design of the Golem?

I do hope they rethink it before it rolls out in Rubicon; I have only flown my golem for 3 weeks or so, if it rolls out looking this horrid, I am simply going to park it and go back to my CNR (until they ruin that too)

CCP you made a mistake, please fix it.

Actually if you flip the Golem upside down, it looks quite good imo.

My problem is the bastion animation.
I mean, I didn't expect a transformer, but I did expect something a good bit more goddie than what we got
