I've been playing EVE for a few months now using the
classic client and I was always surprised to hear people
say how ugly Minmatar ships are. I always thought they
looked quite good. Well they did, on the classic client.
After downloading the patch I logged in to find my Rupture
looked horrible! It was one of my favorite ships in the
game and now I'm embarrassed to fly it. It would seem I'm
not the only one. Almost all the Minmatar pilots I spoke to
who used the classic client said they hated the premium
versions. Some ships, like the Hurricane, are almost
identical like the so don't really apply here.
Basically, I'd like CCP to implement a poll for players to
decide which ship models they would like to see in-game. I
think this is only fair seeing as so much of this game is
player controlled.

And why not? From what I understand it's the players who
have made this game what it is. Why shouldn't we have a say
in some of the aspects of it? I'm not asking them to do
this now, but to consider the players who pay their
subscriptions every month to continue playing.

Yes, lets have CCP occupy their time with useless menial tasks because YOU don't like the look of certain ships. Minmatar ships are not famous for their asthetic appeal fly another damn race if your ugly ruppy is such an issue.

I'll refrain from posting when you grow a frakking brain and start using that grey matter for something useful other than stupid posts.
Get this loud and clear.
To say such an asnine statement as "This ship is ugly" is like saying your face is ugly and I demand CCP change it.
Get me?
Good.. now you can do this 1 of 3 ways.
1: You go back and accept the fact that Minmatar ships are duct tape with bailing wire and enjoy the fact that they are badass and ugly enough to make people laugh until they realize they just lost there armor to a hail of artiliery fire.
2: You reroll and pick a race that makes you look more attractive.
3: You quit the game.
IF there is one thing worse than a whiner... its one who refuses to take into account that CCP has more importaint things to do then to fix one stupid paint job.
There is a grapihcal error in the Malestrom class battleships.... Check the left rear of the ship and you'll see a hole in the shell of the ship.
This could be my Graphics Card.... but it shows up in the Mac Book Pro as well.
So yeah...
But instead of screaming at CCP as I tend to be anal about such things.. I accept the fact that there are bigger fish to fry.
When you reach that stage... then you'll be heard.
Not until then. =============== CEO of Clan Shadow Cadre www.shadowcadre.com ===============

Edited by: De''Veldrin on 14/03/2009 05:43:08 Minmatar ships are ugly. That's one of the reasons I love them. They have that "lived in" look that makes Star Wars so much more appealing that the antiseptic cleanliness of Star Trek. Minmatar ships look like someone's been using them for something.
Though, tbh, the Rupture does look like a pneumatic nail gun. --Vel

Wow, really? Your complaining about visuals? Why don't we complain about the gallente Dominix-class battleship or the Osprey-class Cruiser. Those are ugly so we should obviously waste Devs time to make them look "cool".
No support. I don't know why I bothered replying.

I have always taken to the Minmatar ships :). They look like somebody found a banged up concrete mixer on a scrap yard, welded it to an oil rig and bolted a warp drive to it. There, done.
That's their charm :). It is also very much in line with Matari lore: ex-slaves who freed themselves and who built their own boats. To a people like that, what it looks like is not even a consideration. That it works though, that very much is the point.
If you want to talk ugly... the old client made Gallente ships look shiny, which I found pleasing. Now the ships are matted, which gives them an unfinished look, but that could be defended because the ships are put through the rigours of space.
Ugly? Have you seen a Brutix lately? Even in their siny state they looked like someone squirted toothpaste into a blob and thought "Now, if we could make that into a space ship, that would be neat." I haven't seen one with the matte finish, but I guess now they'll really look like a cringe fest. And you know what? I don't care. It adds character.
I want to see what an Imicus looks like now :).
Matari ships look like a slag heap with a warp drive [and a porta potty]. Smile and be happy.

Caldari ships though. WAY too angular for me. But hey, that's EVE. Why worry about something like that?

get a grip, the way they designed the 'older ships'(story line based that is)
old-minmatar - old rustbuckets, if it does the job, its good enough new-minmatar - actual ships, look at the Hurricane and Maelstrom. they are products of the new Minmatar Republic thingie Amarr - hulls to show-off their divine right. it doesn't only have to work, it needs to impress ppl, and put fear in the heart of enemy's. so shiney gold, and smooth looks Gallente - a peacefull organic look, but a battle interior. Caldari - whatever makes everything fit in the hull, it doesn't really matter what it looks like. if some ships look anything remotely like a bird, then it's fine. (Raven, Blackbird and Osprey for some examples)
so, some ships look like teh sex... others look like ****. i for one never flew minmatar because how horrible they look. but i love all the differences between the races...

Minmatar = An guy falling down the stairs in a wheelchair that's duct taped and held together with bailing wire and spit... while shooting an uzie.
And the funny thing is.. they do it "Gracefully"

Everyone knows that Matari ships are held together by some futuristic combination of paper clips, glue, duct tape, chewing gum and rubber bands.

I happen to like the new look for the Minmatar ships, myself. The orange lighting details and intricate non-sprite frameworks and scafolds stunned me so much that I spent five minutes switching between my ships seeing how cool they looked now. If anything, they look better, and even a bit sturdier (I can now believe my Tempest will not pull and Enterprise-D on me every time the armor takes a cruise missle, with that second support and all).

For the most part, I like the premium client (especially with how they fixed the scythe/scimitar, which imo previously challenged the moa for the ugliest ship in the game on classic). I like the classic mastodon/mammoth a little more than the new, but only marginally. In general, I'd prefer to keep the new look minnie's have in premium.
