Just returned to EVE after a 6 month break. Saw the new model for the Typhoon and fell in love with the ship all over again.

You guys have some talented artists. They did a really good job. Kept it's form true to the original. Just praise where it's due, that is all.

You say this.. after the art team gave the Incursus the 'Ken Doll' treatment...


Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Totally agree. Typhoon looks awesome.

Now all they have to do is give us back the old Scorpion model.

Most of the model updates have been really, really good. I'm not sure I feel about this new blackbird though. Seems kind of super greebly and generic.

Sooooooo... nothing has changed then? Blink

edit: to all the art DEVs... as you are redoing to models for all the ships make sure you add something mildly irritating to the model... just to make the OCD crowd twitch a bit. Twisted

Like some scaffolding here... a thruster there... or maybe shift part of the model on the back end like on the Vexor, so it is not apparent until someone really LOOKS at it.

Hey at least this.

CCP confirmed that the new Dominix design is due to hit Tranquility by
2015 at the latest.

Was on the CSM note thingy.



Please don't give us the "symmetricallized imicus" though. That thing is awe full, the current one at least holds a place in our hearts.

Oh, I perfectly understand, Hal Morsh — a mission like this requires courage, skill, and heroism… qualities you are clearly lacking. Have you forgotten you're one of the bloody immortals!?

No. The Imicus is an abomination.

It is not its asymmetry that is the problem. The problem is that it looks like a Quasimodo sea slug on a crooked crutch with fire coming out of its ass.
People shoot it not because they want to get a killmail... they simply can't stop laughing at it as long as it is on field.

Seal's face is more beautiful than the Imicus! Evil

No, because of No.

The old scorpion was universally hated. Universally I say!

And thus the End Tmes begin with the last true Space Potato peeled down to be trendy and fashionable and remove its rotund individuality Sad

It should become the default name of all Enyos after this new version is rolled out

Has nobody realised that a lot of us fly Gallente specifically because of the oddball designs?

In other news, the Moa is no longer a contender for ugliest ship in the game.

HAHAHHAHA

(but seriosuly, that was held by the Execqurorrororiroueteiruteorit&^rt$oyasdh££$")&*&gasdbvas-thingy.)

I'm not one for redesign,s adn they usually just make them more homogenised, which is less distinguishable and dull. However, credit on the revamp Appoc model & Scorpion of late. Them is good.

And as for 'fixing' hulls to change what they doo (HP, Slots etc) ... there is one change, above all others in the game, period, fullstrop, that ranks as the best change ever, even against some of the non ship related changes:
What they did to the Iteron's was simply genius. Absolutly genius. Love it.

That's me done. :)

nearly.

But, the blackbird?? *snore* ... and don't touch the Incursus. And god please don't destroy the Beached Whale Domi. I like my ship names that reflect the look of the ship ...

I find it strange that CCP is bent on changing models of ships that contributed to them getting the recognition from the The Museum of Modern Art...

Iono... the new model looks pretty sleek and sexy while still staying true to the original form. Big smile

Don't worry... it still looks like the Dominix we know and love... with a little bit of a Vexor-esque face lift. Smile

That looks nothing like the Domi we were promised....

You really want this instead? They straightened it out and gave it another bent wing. Asymmetry is okay.
