Ah! They finally applied that design. Nice!

I wish they'd use it for one of the T2 models. Then again, I keep hoping for a 'command' destroyer or frigate. Hint. Hint.

Well, I'd also like to see boosts be on-grid only too. Not to derail the topic. Fat man = good. More use of that model = good.

They have...The stealth bomber


Yea ... I know. I do like the current version of the SB. But I'd like to see the fat man model used as a T2 hull.


Brilliant. I don't despise old design, and tech 2 should have different look alltogether.

As usual, I don't see a difference. Not that it matters anymore anyways.

Looks fantastic! I love the Tristan, but it seems like along with the mega, they upgraded two ships that were already pretty instead of fixing the ones that aren't (I'm looking at you Domi).

Why does no race have a ship that is shaped like a sphere? It seems a natural design choice, and I can't imagine it would be difficult to produce.

And what could be more iconic than a flying saucer? Where are the flying saucers in EVE?

Form and function.

Not potatoes.

If you want to talk about a bunch of crap mashed together, look at the Minmatar ships. What the hell are those wingy bits for?


good point there they look pretty lame aswell, i do like caldari ships though amarr are defiantely the best looking

The new crucifier design still needs a new paintjob for the tech 2 version.

Oh, I perfectly understand, Hal Morsh — a mission like this requires courage, skill, and heroism… qualities you are clearly lacking. Have you forgotten you're one of the bloody immortals!?

Gallente are the second nicest fleet in the game after Amarr.

Caldari are an abomination. Especially the awful digital camo on the navy ships. Whoever designed that mess needs a good flogging.

At least the camo on the Gallente ships is a bit more subtle.

Anyway nice new look for the Tristan though I agree with those who said there were other ships more in need of a refresh (and not the Domi).

That's a really good redisign/tweak.

Also, Imicus is perfect as is; leave it alone.


That first part is very true, I really like that redesign...
The second part... No...

oddly enough Tristan is the more combat oriented, and the Incursus is the tanky one... 50more ehp and bonus to reps... i think they got to 2 mixed up some were in development

I've always said the Arazu was the original gallente space-turd. The designer drunk or blind? Who the hell approved that as a pimp look?

And while we are on aesthetics: In the thousands of years that the inhabitants of Eve have been around why the heck haven't the Minmatar people discovered paint yet?

Nobody is that damned broke in Eve that at least ONE of the ships produced by these guys can't have at least a smidgen of paint. I feel like I need a tetanus shot everytime I dock up in a mtar station....

but hey, otherwise I love this game!
