Yes these ship are ugly and I know whats going to happen with them

\o/

After flying the arazu/lachesis I can understand the idea behind their design far better, but they need a lot of work. the crifier/sentinel is sadly pretty hopeless imho.

Any chance of not redesigning the moa? How about bringing back the old scorpion model and cancelling the megathron change?

The current scorpion model is beyond ********.

Moa needs redesigned. It is just too bad off. It looks like a chicken being baked or something. I hate the ship. It makes me want to puke looking at it... I mean that literally. Trying to look at it and put some kind of logic to it, it makes me sick.

The new Megathron model is alright, but it does lose some of that organic feel it has right now. I think it's mostly the texture though, right now anyway.

As for the Scorpion, I agree. I never did like this new model. Before, the ship had character, now it's just too obvious. It's like, "oh look, it's a Scorpion, and it actually looks like a Scorpion. How quaint...". I think it would look much better with the one wing shape it used to have, just with the updated model and textures.

Also, while we're on the subject:
BunnyVirus, could you please, for the love of God and all that is holy in the universe, PLEASE talk to someone and get that stupid Ishukone skin changed? Nobody likes it. I f'ing hate it. They used to have the awesome blue cammo, but it was removed because of the new Navy skins. But please, not that horrible gray/gold crap that is on there now.

sry i cant do anything about your issue with the ishukone skins

So who do we gotta talk to then? I guarantee you would be hard pressed to find anyone who likes it...

As for the new destroyers, I like the new Caldari one, the Gallente one is.. alright I guess. The Minmatar one is meh, at least it doesn't look like it would fall apart if one of the crew farted. The Amarr one, I dunno. It feels "fat" to me. It kinda reminds me of the Abaddon, honestly. I think it'll grow on me after a bit, just uneasy with it at first.

I'm sorry but new Scorpion looks WAY better than old Scorpion.

With your ship list there, it seems that you really favor the hulls that many others refer to as "ugly." I think the updated Tempest looks awesome. The Vargur even moreso. Moa doesn't bother me so much, but he blackbird looks asymmetrical and lopsided for asymmetry's sake. If something is asymmetrical because it has some sort of sense behind why it'd be that way "in the real world," then I think many more people can relate to, and even embrace the design.

And before you start arguing that Eve isn't "a real world," keep in mind that design and technology elements we can relate to come from our real world we experience every day going to work or watching TV. At the end of the day, the game designers need to create an environment and a universe we can relate to. That way, it's easier for us to suspend our disbelief and Eve becomes a place we can invest in and have fun doing it because it all makes sense.

Having something like that with the gold would do wonders for it. And that's another thing that bothers me so much with it, it going from back to front like that. It was a HORRIBLE design decision by someone...

Also, the Moa looks like ass. Plain and simple. It's assymetrical for the sake of being assymetrical and it looks like crap. Like the entire body of the ship deforms in the back to merge into the two long, trailing engines in the back. Or how the whole ship is cocked upward while those engines are "level" with their direction. The whole thing just looks like a bad acid trip.

In fact, nature is symmetrical, thus symmetry is "organic". Symmetry comes in many forms, not just linear. Good examples are flowers, which have rotational symmetry, or DNA and its helical symmetry.

Being more attracted to something asymmetrical is very interesting, psychologically speaking, as we are prone to find it less pleasant than its opposite.
