mmm,

First of: way to go CCP. A lot of little improvements. This is what you should have done instead of captains quarters to start with.

One niggle though.

The gallente retexturing. Alsthough I do not dislike the new textures as such they have 2 problems:
- It doenst fit Gallente: They are supposed to be the artist of this galaxy, yet now they have the most drab/dark colorset of them all. It ust feels wrong
- The textures are so dark i got trouble seeing my own ship in space.

Could we perhaps see something alike to this, but a *little* brighter?

again, well done on many other things

I'm rather fond of the new blueish colour schemes the Gallente ships now have, it looks good imo. Still hating on the space camo and Comet changes though.

With absolutely nothing to back it up, I get the sense that a lot of this is due to how the new shaders pick up the system's ambient lighting and environment maps differently than the old ones, and since a lot of the systems are now darker than they were, this rubs off on the ships.

That is not to say that maybe things could be tweaked to be a bit brighter, but part of it could just be down to the systems you're travelling though. Go to Amarr and see if it still holds true — that place is lit up like there's no tomorrow… P

Arazu and Deimos have a cool look to them now. A nice shiny gold on them.

Agreed!
Gallente and Amarr weren't loved in this patch concerning textures.
Both are too dark and gloomy.

Deimos looks awesome now, I love the new look on the Gallente fleet. The lettering is cool too.

The Iteron now has a gallente badge on the front, this makes it 21.4% less fugly P

If CCP really want to make Gallente ships look artistic and amazing at the same time, they should color more of them like the Astarte. The bronze looks incredible, its fierce enough for combat but 'pretty' enough to be Gallente.

Right hate the COmet, gimmie my old one back. However have seen how mean the navy mega is! Wow good call, space camo that looks good and makes the mega look more The Ishkur and Enyo look great, and the first ship i flew on booting up crucible? The Iterion 3 looks great. Love the new skins, now let me put the Rodan Navy colour scheme on my Domi and i'l be happy.

I like the new color scheme, on both the T1 ships and especially the T2 ships. It looks more grim and darker and fits nicely to the new darker star/nebula background.

I'm also a bit sad that the Comet was changed as I liked the police-look on it, though I'm still not unhappy with the new color, cause it makes it look more menacing... like an alien...

What I'm very happy about is the overall change to federation navy ships.. The darker green/brown cammo looks a whole lot better then the old light/dark green. Navy Mega and and Domi looks cool IMO.

BUT... I'm sad to see the Gallente Shuttle in gray/green as the old gra/yellow looked better

Some people screamed and yelled that the game would be a lot darker, but we were dismissed.

Enjoy the results now.
