am I the only one that is disappointed that it was lead on that command ships would get a new model instead they are givin a t1 model and reskined its like taking a big mac putting it in a burgerking box and calling it a whopper (referring to the new eos)

on a off topic I think all t2 ships should be remodeled to separate them from there tech 1 counterparts and allow for design to better fit there roles

I hope the current commandship model choices and skins are just temporary because I will admit im quite disappointed but I personally do like the new marauders :D

When you hire and bankroll 50 new art asset designers for CCP, Team Trilambda will have the art creation power to do whatever you want. In the meantime though, the art department is busy with the assets for the new SoE ships, the new deployables, finishing up the Golem and then getting back to remodeling all the T2 ships to look somewhat different from their T1 progenitors.

Patience is a virtue, especially in a slow game like EVE. It's surprising how few eve players actually have it.

Are you kidding me? I'm stoked for t2 myrm and cane. Though, I really, really, really wish the new sleipnir model wasnt getting camouflage. Who the hell thought up space camo...

The community has been asking CCP to make this change for years, you picked the wrong time to complain. Roll

My understanding is that T2 variants will have separate models eventually so it should all come good in the end. Unfortunately CCP have deployed their staff in such a way that lots of 'invisible' programmers are fixing things under the hood and the art folks are seriously under resourced so we don't get ship models updated as frequently as many of us would like.

I'm very happy that CCP have fixed things such as missiles and warp speed but it probably doesn't help that they are throwing a lot of cash at Dust and have wasted cash on WOD.

The models should have been like this from the start as people been requesting for years that for example the myrm hull should have been used for the Eos. Been here since 2007 and I even wanted this to happen. Now I love having a T2 myrm.
