More forest camo because blizzard have secretly bought CCP and will soon be covertly introducing space forests... Or just because some of the devs play the wrong MMO too much...

They made an error with the store model, and are now compounding that error.
I totally agree, it just makes no sense whatsoever. The only camo achivevement is that it is now just harder to see the beauty of the model design and panel work.
Look at the new amarr navy look - much better.
Who wants to hide their Army Dominix on a jungle planet???
Sadly dissapointed here - not cool and awesome at all, just lame art direction.

i quite like it Signature - CCP what this game needs is more variance in PVE aspects and a little bit less PVP focus, more content more varied level 1-4 missions more than just 10 per faction high sec low sec and 00 |

Anyone who's ever read 'Excession' by Iain M Banks will know that camoflage on space ships is an obfuscation system to protect against quick scanning and reverse engineering.
Anyone that hasn't read 'Excession' is missing an awesome book.

Shut the **** up about fractals already. It looks like ****. And if indeed fractal camo was so awesome, there's no reason they can't make black on black monochromatic fractal camo.

The Camouflage Color Scheme looks strange on a Spaceship. But who needs colors anyway? Just make every Ship Caldari dull and be done with it. Or, on a second thought, better not.
The most likely reason for the change is, that the Ship Model sold in the EVE Store already has these Colors.

They confirmed that in another thread, yeah.
And the camo color is the main reason I did not even CONSIDER buying the model.

to the op..
I'm very sorry to say that we already had the "Screw You, we'll keep it"--Dev response in a Dev Blog,
Quote:
Q: Why having camouflage skins on navy battleships? A: The black and white skin you were used to on the Megathron Navy Issue has never been the proper Gallente Navy version paintjob and this is why it was changed. As some of you guessed, the correct one was already used on the EVE store Megathron Navy miniature. We are deeply sorry you may not like the new skins, however this unfortunately remains a matter of taste. But if you ask me, my preference would be that dreadnoughts in siege mode should transform into huge space robots with vacuum cleaners.
So it is unlikely that the art department will see the light anytime soon.

More likely, that someone at CCP just wants to get more players to support the addition of limited custom paintjobs to the game and is griefing our sense of good taste until the feature gets implemented.

Wow. I mean..........just wow. Who pounded the crud out of the Dominix with an ugly stick and decided to call the result a Navy ship? Are they trying to move people to Amarr ships or what? I mean.....COME ON!!!
I like the Domi. I was planning to get the new Navy version. Was really looking forward to it. Now that I've seen what it looks like? I doubt I'll get one.
Thing looks like a cheap Mattel or Hasbro knock off with a high lead paint job. I think I got cancer just looking at it.

Just play at low graphics settings like I do - everything looks like mud then.

After looking at some of the feedback on models offered at the EVE store, I've come up with a possible reason. Some of the models have negative feedback regarding their paint jobs. Paint straying outside the lines, undercoat showing through, etc. With this paint job they don't have to worry about that. However poorly the Navy Dominix is painted, it looks like it should be that way. No more customer complaints.
Of course it results in something that looks like regurgitated bunny crap, but at least customers won't/can't complain about the paint job.
Did you notice they're giving the Navy Megathron the same skin? The lines of the Mega pull it off better, but it's still one of those "What were you thinking? You should be used to drinking excessive amounts of beer by now and it's no excuse." sort of things.

With the right paint jobs, the store models would have probably sold better. Not sure who the **** decided a green Megathron was cool. I personally got a Tempest instead. ____ Minmatar ship fixes... |

Get rid of the camo! Or at least don't make it GREEN. THERE ARE NO BUSHES IN SPACE TO HIDE IN.
If you must keep the design, change the colors at least! Greys and light blues maybe?

The camo is horrid. There has been numerous suggestions of awesome alternatives, but CCP is too thickheaded to admit that it sucks.

The problem with the camo is that it is not the camo itself but its quality. Its freaking bad quality camo.

The camo is obfuscating the details on the ship model. Add solid colors to give it more pithiness. --------

*bump* I can't believe that in spite of the overwhelming amount of negative feedback about the pointless "camo" skins on Navy Mega and Domi, CCP are sticking their head deep into the sand and doing nothing about it ...
