CCP: Avatar redesign

In the case of the Avatar, I don't think anyone is demanding change simply for the sake of change. All you have to do is look at the stupid ******* thing, and realize that it could look a lot cooler.

The Mona Lise comparison is just downright dumb. Don't do that.

The Avatar is like the definition of stagnation. It could use a make over.

Now, no one is saying it's the only ship that should be fixed up. There are a few others, for sure. But the Avatar is up there I think. It's goofy looking. It's ******* ugly. But not only is it ugly, it's overall design is just poor. They could easily keep the original concept, the weird umbrella type of design, but give it an interesting modern twist and just make it look better overall. It could easily be done.

actually more of a plea LOL. Any chance of you guys redesigning the front end of the Avatar so it doesn't look like a mushroom with a face ready to give a blowjob?

Love the khanid paint scheme, love the armor bonuses to the amarr line but I absolutely cannot get past that front end.


Yeah! Lets redesign it so it looks like the new caracals then it'll be so cool with all its triangle shapes all over like this is Tranformers: the movie! Cause we need to ruin the game's individuality to pander to simpletons, yay \o/ !!!



I'm not sure.....is this sarcasm :)

Sounds easy thing to do, take a pencil eraiser and list of paper and bring something other than words.

Then we could talk about it.

You're right. Nobody should ever critique a video game ever again unless they are willing to fund, design, and create their own video game. It's only logical.

Don't overband this tiny stick. You said it's peanuts to rework. I don't agree.

The game is fine, well at least playable.

Haters are going to hate. Everyone likes different music and thinks other music sucks. You think the old apoc sucks, cuz "haters".

So does that mean you think the new designs suck because "haters"? Why is your "haters" better than our "haters"? I mean, if "haters" is bad doesn't that invalidate your message with all it hate?

Yes it's fine, but it could be finer. Maybe this idea shouldn't be high on the list of priorities but it's still a good idea and the Avatar is still a weird looking piece of crap.
