The Nighthawk just looks awful, I want to puke everything I look at it. I am MORE the embarrassed to be flying around a black drake with red stripes on it. I looks like someone was like, " OH MAN, I have this great idea, lets take the nighthawk make it look like a brick, paint it black with red stripes, and say its what the community wanted." just my two cents here but CCP should change it back or make either hull an option, Because anyone who thing the drake is a beautiful ship need to have their eyes and head checked. (ALSO drake is still almost useless)

Anytime they make cosmetic changes someone isn't going to be happy because they liked the way their ship looked.

I kind of liked the old look of the Nighthawk but the new look is okay. There's nothing wrong with the Drake hull but they could have did a bit more than just add some red paint. I do understand using the Drake hull because it's a missile ship.

The one thing that does sadden me is the Ferox hull looks awesome but the ship is just horrible IMO. The Nighthawk is a pretty good ship that also used a hull design that looks really cool. Now the only way I will look at the Ferox hull is inside of the station. Cry

I think the new Nighthawk looks great, best looking Drake hull out there, and it's bonuses are nice to boot

Before the HM nerf the Nighthawk was almost as good as a Tengu but took a whole lot more training time. Now it's not nearly as good, still takes a whole lot longer to train and looks like a Drake.... Hmm

You were basically flying a drake that didnt look like a drake now you are complaining that it looks like the ship it was pretty much based off of?

Dont get me wrong i love the Ferox but it just seemed wrong to see missiles coming off of it.

Oh, Do go on... no seriously ive got nothing better to do then listen to all the petty arguments and feeble trolling attempts... 

The sad thing is i'm not sure if i'm telling the truth.

I fitted a Nighthawk today with heavies, and 2 720mm arties. I do close to 700DPS with caldari battlecruiser L5, and command ship L4. So if I had command ship L5 DPS be even higher. So with HAMs I'm thinking DPS could be 800DPS to 900DPS. The bonuses it gets now are outstanding and it just looks great. How the missiles and turrets sit on her are where they should be too. 700DPS with heavies plus the explosion radius bonus, mean boat. IF heavies ever get fixed, the Nighthawk even without guns and with command boosts instead will be a mean boat. Best looking Drake skin in EVE hands down too.

I like the new hull for the Nighthawk as well. I didn't fly it because it was a ferox hull. Now that it is a drake hull I have started to fly it finally even though i was trained into it. It never made sense to me to have the NH based off of the ferox as it was the turret BC rather than the missile BC.

I love the Ferox Hull.... tbh, i´ve just trained for the nighthawk so i can fly that gorgeous looking ship.

how could CCP do this to the Nighthawk?
This Drake hull is just awful.....

Please change it back to the ferox's shape.
