This is because the only way to visually tell the difference is by their colourings.

I guess it's not as big a deal with the mining barges.



That sounds nonsensical. Who ID's ships by actually looking at them? Most of the time they are tiny little dots in your crosshairs.

But I'm not wrong. They are going to charge an arm and a leg for T2.

Calm down miner. As you pointed out, people think they can get away with stuff they would not in rl... Like for example illegal mining... - Ima Wreckyou*

I will kill whomever necessary to obtain a Kaalakiota Stratios and Astero. Would even do it for a Nestor....and I've never flown one of those.


What I'm saying is, is that I would happily give CCP a sh*t load of money if they made the above links a reality. I'd probably pay more for those three skins than I would want to admit in public.


Those three skins made me *** abit in my pants, true story!!
Damn they are sexy!!!


So, as far as i understand the t1 skins does NOT fit onto the t2 hulls, right?
What about navy hulls then?
Say i bought a vexor skins, would it fit the navy vexor? Or is that a seperate skins, like t2 hulls?

T2 ships are already skinned from their manufacture.

Are the tech 2 ships ever going to be eligible for skins?


Of course they are. Unless CCP decides that making money is a bad thing.

The real question you should be asking is when. Not if.

They are probably arguing whether they are going to charge $50 or $100 for T2 skins.

I thought they would have you talk to agents occasionally and if your agent is really good at coloring, offer you a T2 skin.

The whole SKIN system is a big work in progress.

This, considering there were only 8 new calmari ships and 30+ amarr skins.


Where are these octopus ships you speak of? Tell me now.

Pretty sure it's been said a number of times that all T2 ships will eventually have unique hulls, like the Stealth Bombers.
We'll get SKINs for them after that happens.

In the mean time, I'd really like a Guristas and Wiyrkomi SKIN for the Tengu.

That moment when you realize the crazy lady with all the cats was right...

That's a looooooong time to wait at the current rate. Nothing prevents the ones that do have unique hulls from having skins even if that is the case though.
