Well let's be realistic, the lance on the Enyo is awesome.

The ishkur should really look like the Tristan.

Two different models for two different ships.

Yaay!!!!

dafuq indeed, if they're making changes to the Incursus hull, it sure as hell better be to add MORE lances. Like, at least a dozen of them, each one animated to spin like a drill bit. Then they gotta add a highslot module to the game called a ramming module, and when it's fit, ship deals structure damage when it bumps stuff, ignoring armour, shields, and resistances, and the Incursus hull and variants get bonus bumping damage with ramming modules fit.


Or at least a mini game where you can launch your Incursus / Enyo at a large dartboard for ISK.

this feature will be included in the next Danger Game update release.

It would be nice if CCP would avoid turning it into a Michael Bay/lol-obvious ship, like the Scorptransformer or the Fireflmoa.

The sentiments of so much of Eve. Taking the lance off the enyo would be like taking the briefcase away from the moa.

Yes. I'm still mad. There is no forgiveness for that.

It would be really nice if the blackbird didn't fall victim to the current trend of the art team redesigning Caldari ships to no longer look 'Caldari', stripping them of their character. Like the moa, yes, it needed an upgrade, touch ups, tune ups, but it went from something unique and similar to the caldari style, to 'generic symmetrical fighter'. Please don't let them ruin the blackbird the same way.


It's a new era. Rejoice in the fact that you no longer need to look ridiculous to look "Caldari". Smile

As far as the Moa becoming a "Generic Symmetrical Fighter"... well... it's not generic (nothing else in game looks like it), it's not symmetrical, and it's not a fighter. Just sayin'.

The moa looks great, people need to STFU, it still has some cues from the old moa. They don't seem to remember the old Moa looked like a ******** dinosaur with a suitcase.

Personally, all I want is for them to snip the Drone Bay off the Eagle since it doesn't have one.

The old Moa was ugly to the point of not really having a reason for being that ugly. As I said earlier, while the ugliness had a bit of charm I guess, the new Moa looks more birdlike which fits its name and Caldari culture better.

I guess hoping for pictures in this thread was a bit misguided?

Come on CCP, Seriously, give us an ETA on the Domi. You showed the design at Fanfest, and we've had what, 2 re-models, and soon to be 6 new ship hulls since then? (Moa, Blackbird.. Mordu's ships, 2 of the T3 Dessies, and the new Tug ).

It's not too much to expect something on the new Domi design, since clearly you invested some time into it.. plus people, more than just I, want to see it!

Just tell us it'll be part of the Dec update, and we can all walk away happy.

Are you stupid? I hope they touch the Retribution, preferably with a fist to punch a third mid-slot in. I want real tackle on my Retri!

I thought we were talking about aesthetic changes here, not fitting changes.

Asymmetry is pretty for about 5 seconds.



Seeming as the animation does not necessarily line up with the ships actual alignment does it matter ?

All ships in games could be borg cubes and death star spheres and it would have minimal effect on game play.


game play is just one factor of why people many people stay in the game.

Ships can be a thing of beauty, like Amarr, or a rusting hulk of a wreck like them Minnie Slave ships ...

... they can also start wars based on appearance viewpoints.

The look of a ship is crucial.

I'm all for bringing in new Hulls, rather than switching out old 'classic' hulls. Updating graphics is one thing, completely redeesigning is totally different. The only exception to that, I think, is the scorpion, which was always flawed at the start. but then I might say that anyway, as I only like Amarr lol. ;)

It took them around 3 years to get the new crow model into the game I think. So don't hold your breath, Domi pilots...

The old new model looked slightly different, there was no animations and there were missile launchers build in into the hull, because it was from before when the missile launchers were redone.
