the carcal uses the bent arms it has for weapon mounts and side side structure for defense purposes (if the game had some real physics for damage)

The Caracal looks pretty good in my opinion. I like the look of most of the Caldari ships though. Even if it looked ass ugly it isn't a huge priority. Rebalancing and creating content should always be a priority. |

Unique in reference to Eve hulls. Also it doesn't look all that much like the picture either. |

Klingon ships give the Thorax hulls some fierce competition. Everyone always says the Thorax looks like a dingdong but it doesn't even have a peehole like the Klingon ship.

Um... TIE Fighter wings are large radiator panels needed for the special ion engine used in the ship. The design was crafter to reduce the front to back cross section, increasing the difficulty to hit the ship. The drawback is that they are vulnerable to side attacks. |

Why a HUGE NECESSITY?
Aesthetically speaking, which is purely subjective, it just doesn't seem to stand out from other Caldari hulls. A ship like the Hookbill and Blackbird seem like unique hull designs. The Caracal looks like (and forgive me for saying this) a small version of the Klingon Bird of Prey.
As for how the ship fits and performs, I find it pretty dull. The Caracal and Navy Caracal typically fit RLMLs and an optional buffer. I've used the Caracal many times for troll-fits - Filling mids with ASBs, massive buffer, heavy active tank, etc. However, the Caracal only seems to perform on Frigates. The Cerberus, however, seems to just be a Caracal with massive HAM Range and awesome cap stats.
I don't argue that the Caracal is a great hull but it just doesn't seem to have any flare to it. Then again, I don't find most Caldari hulls to stand out anyway. |

I dunno why the Griffin hasn't been redone yet. Look at that mess. But I guess it's not a particularly widely-used hull.
And why hasn't the Breacher model been replaced with an edited Hound model? Just you know, replace the torp boxes with some other structure, and give it a plain brown paint job. Maybe remove those silly tendons attached to the cockpit. That would look pretty sweet.
Because the Hound is already an edited Breacher model. |

Imo caracal looks like a more fragile klingon ship from star trek but more grey and evil and smokey. Im thinking wings are probably shaped like that to house antennas for missile electronics n tracking. |

The Caracal is a rather ugly design. That said, there are basic design changes and texture improvements that could be made which would drastically improve it's aesthetic while still retaining the same basic forms and design concept. The Osprey doesn't have the same kind of promise. It's just one truly ugly duckling. The griffon I'm amazed wasn't changed back when they changed the crucifier. Both of them look like they were assembled from the same pile of spare parts.

First of all, don't start a discussion without explaining why you are starting a discussion.
Redesign.. the visuals? the attributes? the Hello Kitty antenna topper?
The Caracal is at least balanced visually... if this is what you mean. I agree, however, it could be updated but at least they gave us a new Blackbird and Moa design. These 2 were the best since the Scorpion. |
