Or alternatively, make weapons look like their cool icons. Railguns especially look bad as they currently appear in space.

Don't kid yourselves. Even the dirtiest pirates from the birth of EVE have been carebears. They use alts to bring them goods at cheap prices and safely, rather than live with consequences of their in game actions on their main, from concord to prices

Apathetic to this idea.

But if memory serves me right... the weapon icons were updated in the past, people complained (because the icons were not "unique enough"), and the icons were quickly returned back to the way they were.

I think it was one of the few times that enough people were angry enough with the change that the DEVs went back on it.

I think I still have the bottle of whipped rage froth from those threads somewhere in the pantry. Big smile

Make icons externalized and allow us to override them with our own images and everyone will be satisfied. Any change in icons will always result in dividing the community to two camps - the one that like them and the one that not.

Modding is fun. Please add more customization into EVE!
