Ok, so I checked out the photos, video. I don't know what you are complaining about. I thought it was going to be horrid.

At least you don't have to fly around a long turd like an Armageddon or Maelstrom.

Yup.

Golem looks like a plastic toy now, like the Noctis. Textures are all wrong on top of the too simple design.

I agree sadly. I actually like the new hammerhead feature in the design but the wings just don't work flattened out like that. I wish they'd give more bulk or add another feature to the port wing. The lack of balance in the design is upsetting.
Also, colour and texture don't help.

Golem on Singularity doesn't have light channel yet so it will look better when completed.

Anyway, dear whiners, now you know how I feel about that "New Scorpion" abomination. So there's justice after all Twisted

I could not agree more!!!

The proportions are off, the hammerhead look is actually no bad as a concept but doesn't work yet, not at all!
The wings look clumsy and awkward and the whole ship proportion is whacked!!!

If you're going to make a new hull then scrap the whole idea and go with an original design. Not some frankensteined Raven / Tengu blend.

Give it a longer body, shorter wings, make it look like a shark even more...

this is the exact feeling of anxiety I had when I saw digital Jabba the Hutt.

I think the words we are looking for is "It lacks Character".

VIsual reference for Marauder transformations:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rP8eX3N8uc

By having multiple smaller individual parts offset in time it gives a more dynamic and kinematic visual.

Currently ALL Marauders have the SAME timining, everything slides together all at once, guess what , the human eye can't watchitall simultaneously. If you OFFSET the animation of different parts, AND allow it to flow in ONE direction it immediately improves the effect.

The Bat mobile had this SAME effect, theanimation is offset in time so it appears the individual parts are not all moving together.

The Marauders all have the SAME timing for EVERY single part. You need to offset this more. Bring out some BIG guns, the turrets right now have WAY more interesting animations.

Take a look and STUDY the animation of stop motion genius Phil Tippet for ED 209. There are parts the spin, slide, twist and lock.
Try to incorporate more of that visual language and complexity into the marauders transformations. Have something rotate, spin and unlock, twist and slide into position.... Make it more dynamic and it will appeal more.

Hell even just the STEAM that someone added in a random video for a marauder transformation added more visual PUNCH!

Yes I know the new Golem is not finished.

Yes I am aware I'm panicking about a work in progress and not a final asset.

However, the direction so far is bad! If there is ANY way to stress this to whoever is currently mangling the Golem, I want them to KNOW why it's not working yet.

The corpses are also not done but they are in much better shape and already looking pretty in this pre rubicon release form.

The Golem needs more work on proportions, it also needs something done about the wings and hammerhead concept. Like I said, the hammerhead concept is interesting but doesn't work with the Raven hull.

I'm worried that the final version will not look much different from what I see now and with only a month left before Rubicon I am worried that this design is close to final.

Dear CCP modeler of the Golem, I am telling you this out of love and passion. You have a player base that gives a shizer about the look of the ship. You don't want to disappoint us or Jita burns!

The Achura were ugly. Then they were prettified. Now ONE of their ships is being uglified? Sounds like justice to me. 0.-

Gee, it's a good thing that didn't happen to the Federation Navy Comet. I'm so glad it still has its flashing police light that makes a lot of us make siren noises as we fly it.

Because that would have been a shame.
