Wait, isn't the Leviathan the Caldari Titan? Because this reeks of Minmatar "engineering".

This is a tough one:

Best: Hyperion

Worst: Every hauler in the game.

Most realistic: Rokh

Worst Looking: Tempest

Meanest looking: Brutix

Look a like: Mining barges look like different size bat mobiles.
Blackbird looks like space garbage.
Moa looks like a satelite
Huginn- a piece of stargate fell off.

Most beautiful ship, in my opinion, is a Dralthi Manticore.

Runner up would be the Garmur, and the Chimera.

Ugliest ship...most of the Minnmitar frigates. Amarr capitals.

Let's discuss overhauling the way we get intel in EvE.

It's hard to give one answer:

Best and worst to me in no particular order.

Best
Hel - looks crazy menacing
Leviathan - looks op
Demios - love taking that big thing out
Catalyst serpentis edition - soft spot for cats

Worst
Celistis - I mean seriously
Inquisitor - looks like something eating out of trees by natives
All freighters except for the provi

You guys need to stop hull shaming.

There's some serious spintimidation going on in this thread.

Every hull is beautiful! You just lack the SP it takes to fly them...


Well, yes. If you mean statswise, then yes every ship can be beautiful.

Asymmetry, however, is a scourge that must be removed from all ship models. It isn't beautiful, or even just good to look at. True beauty is symmetry.

Best: Everything except Dominix.

Worst: Dominix


I hope that one day that tumor will be removed from game and all record erased like it never existed.

Worst: Vexor/Ishtar....and Domi I guess....or blow dryer/screwed up handgun and potato/sneaker.

...but I still love them.



Best: All the sisters exploration ships...love those things <3

Too many favs to pick. I love most of the Amarr and Galente designs, and many of the new/reworked Caldari ships (Naga! <3).

Crucifier was one ugly mofo, but since the redesign it now looks great. Harbinger would be next in line for an update imo; those low res textures, and the wings look totally out of place.

As for best... I think I'm torn between Hyperion and the oracle.

As for worst, it has to be anything bulbous looking such as the dominix.

The bests are in no particular order:

-SoE ships particularly the astero
-New condor hull
-Nemesis
-New Crucifier (I like the open architecture and symmetry.)
-New Apoc (wish they'd scrub the filigree off Amarr ships though. Especially the frigates where its more obvious.)
-New Moa
-New Scorpion

And for some min love (although I'm not generally a fan of their ships)
-Talwar
-New Typhoon

The worst:
-Imicus
-Griffin
-Bantam
-Osprey
-Blackbird
-Velator (Worst rookie ship)
-Celestis
-Caldari / Gallente sub-cap industrials
-Celestis
-Exquror
-Belicos
-Atron (Zoom in really close, the ship is barely held together, for something that goes so fast it should fly apart)

Anything Sansha's Nation.

I left out a lot of Min hulls, they are tolerable and look like **** because they're supposed to be that way. Caldari/Gallente have a love affair with asymmetry that makes no sense. I'm fine with designs like the Thorax (I don't love it, but I can tolerate it) or the Manticore (which I love) but the Osprey is a serious WTF moment. Hopefully that guy took an art class or got fired.

I'm a little sad that the Nestor made it onto so many peoples' worst ship lists. I kinda like the ring and tailfin design!

Best Ship: Purifier

Worst Ship: Imicus

I've some to see a pattern. 90% of the worst piles of space feces are Frigates and Cruisers. No wonder we can't retain new players.

I find a list without the Megathron hard to take seriously. It should be hands-down in the top three.

Best = Vindicator (to me it looks like a big space hotrod)

Worst = Caldari Frigates (Look like they are made of Lego's)

I've grown rather fond of how the Stabber looks. I'd have to say that would be my favorite.

The worst would definitely be the Bantam.

The Blackbird, Imicus and Dominix are fine once you get used to them. They have their own great look to them. Bunch of haters in here. Lol

Flying a Helios definitely gave me a new outlook on the Imicus. I'd honestly hate to see it change. The covops version of it is one of my favorite looking ships.

I absolutely love the Mimir variant of the Rupture hull. But the Rupture itself looks like a cordless drill. The fin-spinny-bits really balance it out.

It's hard to say what the best looking ship is but I can tell the art guys have really earned they pay on this.

The worst looking ship continues to be the Imicus. C'mon guys we need to do something about that booger with the kickstand. The Celestis is close behind and looks like something you don't want close behind your behind if you know what I mean.


Beyond that I would say that the ships are headed in the right direction. Got a Typhoon recently and had not had one in two years and find the refinement to be outstanding.
