I have to say I wonder how much sense it makes to redesign such iconic ships. These types of ships, capitals, are the things that we all as new players aspired to own, one day. Whether we like or dislike a certain hull, we have already factored that in and decided on a few ships that we'd love to own one day. Making changes to these hulls creates distance between those experiences as a new player and us as players now. It lowers attachment to the game.

I like it, it fit's good into the Caldari lineup with it's simple military style.

Ship Redesigns are allways a matter of opinion, but in general i have to say that CCP has made a good Job over the last years. Most critisism is based on nostalgia when they mess with "your" ship.

I wonder if any players aspire to run a citadel the way other players want to get a carrier asap

It's the same changes they've done to other Caldari ships I suppose; making them look more symmetrical and sleek. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so what one person likes another could dislike. I just question the sense in changing ships, it's unlikely to get many more people to use that ship, and it can disappoint the people who do use it currently.

Not that I have a single Caldari capital pilot. I haven't updated myself from the old culture of 'shield is bad.'

That looks like the 2008 model. Is it getting an update or do you just need to haul your computer's processing capabilities forward by 8 years?

Now if we could only get a Hello Kitty SKIN for the Chimera the torture would be complete.

I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week.

Maybe wait until it shows up on SiSi? Pretty sure if the consensus is that it needs a second pass you'll see it on Reddit.

As long as they leave my archon alone, all is well. It's perfect as is....

However I like what they did with it, looks more advanced instead of a space brick.
