I, like a number of people, are upset that we're having the option to change what the front of our T3 looks like taken away.
Especially since the Engineering subsystem will still have full aesthetic influence but most often provides the least change.
The change I propose is simple, have the Engineering Subsystem change what the prow looks like. Easy and simple, I would assume. Immediate visual comprehension of a ship's capabilities was a primary focus of CCP's T3 destroyers, after all.

Please, show some love for us Proteus and Legion pilots! It's just not the same without my angry, crow-like bridge!

>P.S. All of the other changes are fine and dandy as far as I've seen

I think t3s should have one hull. The mix and match thing is tacky and makes them look dumb. They were all designed with only one group of sub systems that looks half way decent and even then they're still pretty ugly.

Especially the legion. No desire to even go for my racial t3 cause it's the ugliest of the bunch.

See, thats an opinion, which can't be right or wrong by any measure, but the whole idea of T3 having changable hulls is to provide an immediate visual representation of the ships capabilities. I know a Legion with the Tactical Targetting Network prow and Liquid Crystal Magnifiers body is going to be a ***** to take down but Covert Reconfiguration and Emergent Locus Analyzer body parts paint it as more of a target.

That being said, my opinion is the Legion is actually the prettiest :T
