Dear CCP

The Tristan is a wonderful ship, but oh so ugly it almost looks Caldari. Please consider laying this tired old joke of a ship design to rest and give it a new look! I cannot, for the life of me, think of anything else than a fat guy carrying an American football.

Thank you for your consideration.

I'd reconsider that line if I were somehow convinced it was being touched by a beautiful young lady.

Actually I was just quoting you for +1 value. I was mostly talking to the OP, but I think I can get behind a photoshoot with some pretty Jin-Mei girls around the Tristan. ^^

Noxisia Arkana Deadspace Knights Likes received: 516	#15 - 2014-01-02 18:54:55 UTC 1 Disagree with OP. Tristan is my favorite looking frigate. It is also the only one that I sometimes jump into just to run a mission with because I like it that much. Now if we could just get rockets back onto it...

That's one beautiful ship. If the Tristan's model is changed to this, I'd probably go out and buy one just because of the new model. The Caldari put business before pleasure. The Gallente put business in pleasure.

I am disposable Republic University Minmatar Republic Likes received: 98	#20 - 2014-01-03 01:28:22 UTC I like the Tristan model aside from the token asymmetrical bit on the side. I'll never understand why CCP hates symmetry so much. Besides, ships like the Moa and Dominix exist, so stop complaining.
