I think the Moa looks like a piece of disgarded 1980's audio/visual equipment, but that's my opinion.


Something I think most people would agree upon is that missile launchers in general need an update. They should be visible on our ships and the missles should come from the launchers!

As long as they keep the picture of the fat man in the lights on the rear of my Dominix, I'm happy.

The dominix is supposed to be an older design ship, I think its fine the way it is. Just needs to be skinned a little better.

Why do you have to be such a tasteless clueless moron? Is it deliberate?

I like the Cormorant. Its the only Space 1999ish ship in EVE.

Imicus/Helios. While I can sort of see the rationale for a cov ops looking like it grew under a pile of dead leaves on the forest floor, it really needs to be redesigned.

Moa is by far the ugliest! The name reflects it, it needs visual changes along with hybrid hyper hype. Ship may become useful, but not very popular. Please, let Moa reinhabit the new world. Don't let Caldari birds die in extinction.

If it literally takes years to get to like a ship's looks that should tell you something.

You're absolutely correct, people wanting the spaceships they fly and not the test tube clone body they just so happen to be in in a spaceship command simulator to look appealing is just absurd. If something is only made better only by ignoring it or even becoming desensitized to it ('zoom out' and 'it grows on you' respectively), then it must be fine and not worth looking into.

I'll flay you if you suggest one more time to change the Moa into some hideous symmetrical block.

Spaceships don't have to be attractive. The Moa is fine. Crucible Moa looks even better. It's amazing what bringing the textures in line with today's standards can do.

You know what really needs to be redone?

EVERY Minmatar subcap. All of them.

If it were up to me, I'd make a few Gallente ships a little less bulbous and organic looking. Specifically the Celestis, Dominix (I kind of like the way the Domi looks at the moment - ominous, but maybe a little streamlining or slight restructure is in order), Exequror and possibly the Hyperion (just a little bit).

The Moa doesn't look good.

I never noticed that before! Nice, haha. Definitely gave the Dominix some flair.

I had never been a fan of the Brain shape of the domi myself. I get that it looks solid, down to earth and fits a ship that conveys the be-there-when-you-need-him vibe but I think a re-texturing to de-emphasize the play-dough effect (which IMO is a design flaw) by partitioning the sections will go a long way to improving the overall perception of the dominix. Being fat and cute is nice but when the Black Ops Sin is using the same model it really sticks out. It also needs bigger or more thrusters.

The Imicus though, no amount of fixing can help that one. It needs a complete redo.

Has anyone mentioned the raven, it could look cool, but whats up with it having a gimped wing of one side lol, usually the caldari ships are pretty good in the fact they are symmetrical but the raven looks rather stupid with a big wing on one side and a gimped wing on the other.

I disliked the ship intensely for years, but in the last couple of them it has grown on me. I quite like the overweight little metal ostrich with the overstuffed suitcase now. It is one of the ships that are uniquely EVE Online's. Quite a few ships could use a facelift, Moa likely among them. But I'd mourn that lumpen shape for a long time.

Anyways, carry on.

I too would mourn its loss.
