Edited by: Night Epoch on 14/04/2011 18:32:45 Great choice. Very cool design. Congrats to the winner & runners up!
Three questions:
1. Will we actually eventually see this in game? That's what was advertised .. but is it actually true on timescales shorter than 3+ years?
2. If so, will you use the ship attributes suggested by Alexey on his design?
3. Moreover, this would represent a third tier of battlecruiser. I assume CCP would balance this by adding three other tier 3 BCs for Cal/Gal/Min ?

Edited by: Merin Ryskin on 14/04/2011 19:12:51 What, I don't get to win as a "thank you" for finally getting you to do something about this? Oh well, maybe next time.
But seriously, what happened to the rule that the four runners up would be the top entries from each of the four races? Am I the only one who remembers this rule and sees a slight problem with having two Amarr ships, one no-faction ship, and no Caldari or Gallente ship?
Also, what about the un-specified prize that was supposed to be given to the top entries from the public voting round (the top 20 that went to CCP for judging)? Who are they and what was the prize?
It's good to see that you finally did something about the contest, but there's a serious problem when you don't follow the official rules in awarding hundreds of dollars in prizes. -----------

Congratulations to everyone!
I was very tempted to take a picture of a roll of ducttape from several angles, and submit it as a minmatar logistics ship. - That could have been pretty awesome. Now, if anyone became inspired to draw (create) an awesome minmatar logistics ship (shaped like roll of ducttape), by all means, send me an evemail with a link to the finished image. I cannot promise ISK, but I'd love to see something awesome like that. - In return, gratitude.

The Kite looks like a Tie Fighter. Maybe if more time was spent working on his ship design instead of the subsystems and he would have won.
I liked them all, certainly far more skill than I have. Congrats to all the winners!

oh yeah I saw that one. I didnt even know how it made it to the finals.
And so the kite looked a little like a tie fighters, So does the minmatar shuttle. point is they were still some of the best designs.
But if anything i can live with Shawn N's unnamed Amarr command ship, I do like that one, and the Serval, this game needs more duct tape.

Implementing a starship takes time - the high-grade 3D model (from which the ingame version will be derived) alone is a major undertaking. Before CCP released Trinity, they had an external agency working for I believe well over a year (maybe even two) to produce the models for all ships existing back then.
And then comes the texturing, the balancing, the finding of a proper niche to not having it be redundant.
And THEN you have to do the very same thing another three times in addition, because you can't just release an Amarr ship and leave the other factions hanging.
So, I'd assume that you'll see the Mentor (and whatever ships accompany it) about half a year after we get to see the Tornado (and whatever ships accompany it). And do we have an ETA for the Tornado yet? Nope... - Signature? What signature? |

@ mothermoon
I believe the Myriad is Gallente,
I mean look, its symmetric and acutally looks like it wont fly apart when it hits the warp button. So its obviously not minmatar.
Not painted gold so not Amarr
It's Symmetric so not Caldari.
Therefore it's Gallente.

On the subject of this contest and actual implementation
I'll try to keep this short and sweet to avoid a tl;dr.
By operating this sort of contest in the first place, an expectation for delivery has been created among the player base, and we expect CCP to deliver it quickly.
If the waiting period goes beyond one expansion cycle, a fair few people will start to doubt that it will ever happen, and the PR value that would be gained from operating this contest in the first place will be lost, while bolstering the trend of distrust people have in CCP's ability to deliver.
It's important to get the contest winners out as quickly as is reasonable, if you want to take steps to rebuild the playerbase's trust in CCP's ability to deliver. Pushing it too fast could also create problems, but generally speaking, the sooner you can get the art assets and ship blueprints for them into the game and in player hands, the better the PR impact will be. It's a good opportunity to rebuild at least some lost reputation.
On a tangent to that, keep up the war on lag; that is the most important of CCP's current, known initiatives to rebuilding player confidence.

Liked the Mentor from the beginning, suggested that it replace the lizard head Harbinger.
Would prefer the Mentor become the #1 Amarrian BC, and buff the Prophecy a bit to make it flyable, as no one flies it when they can get into a Harby.
Just finished Heavy Pulse Laser II training, bring it on!

Dig the winners, can easily see them flying around our 'verse.
Oblivion seems to me more forward thinking than the first place winner, and in that I agree with the previous post what said something akin to "why no second place for the T3 submissions? They designed the subsystems and all". The kite was one of them, don't remember the others right off by name.
We're ready for more T3s. Bring em on.
The next wave should look a little out of place/advanced being ahead of a 'verse in tech that is already well teched out. Ships on planet should have a backwards/less advanced feel. As is the nature of technology. (ie the Myriad. A little clunky looking, but in line with it's planet to cosmos industrial role. read the description.)
All in all thanks for the follow through. Was just wondering if there were indeed winners for this contest, who they were, and if indeed the goal was to take a player's submission and actually put their creation in-game. When you finally get around to doing this it will give a ton of loyalty from your subscribers.
It would have given us the players more trust if the runners-up were actually one from each nation, like you laid out in the rules. Don't set rules if you're just gonna break them. (this was part of my problem with the Jinx t-shirt design rules, but thats a different story) And seriously? Did one person win two second places? I hope this is a typo, or they have different last names with the same initial. 'Cause if not, this just really isn't cool to all the other brilliant talent that submitted.
Next time I personally will try harder in my own designs. The level even the runners up were on were a good bit advanced from my own submissions. Now we have a design level to shoot for from player submissions. I'm setting my personal bar a lot higher from this.

But the runaway winner for me is the sublime Amarr Command Ship. That is the kind of quality of design for a new TV show!
Hope to goddness we see these designs ingame, plus more CCP designed counterparts for the other races. (Its long overdue that we had complete new ship lines anyway).

I voted for the Oblivion and the Serval, and I'm glad they got top spots. I was actually hoping the Serval would get 1st. The Myriad was interesting, and I didn't much like that Amarr Command ship-thing, as it's only got two nice profiles and looks way to bottlecap for me. Never voted for the Mentor, but I did consider it, such that I'd call it second choice to the Oblivion. It's a good choice for 1st, and I hope it makes it into the game.
Actually, I'm hoping the Oblivion, Mentor and the Serval all make it into the game

Torrent? I looked at all the entries, and have no recollection of it.
That contest was fugged, which is why it doesn't have the real winners. There were also a lot more ships in the second contest, and some really fantastic ones. The Tornado was by far the best Minmatar Battleship entry, but not in the second contest for whatever reason.

Congrats to the winners. I though about entering but I didn't have the skills so I just stayed out.
I like the looks of the Serval, and I am curious to know what the Myriad will do. The other three ships are pretty cool looking, but they don't look vary Amarrian which is unfortunate. I hope that whatever happens these ships aren't made into either OP PWNMOBILES, underpowered scrapheaps, or overpriced super exotic things to ornament the hangers of the rich and carebear.

Edited by: EOH Antron on 15/04/2011 04:23:46 I guess I'll just repeat what other people said, for good measure:
1. Why don't you follow your own rules?
2. I hope you follow through with the hype that you've built up with this contest. Remember, this is a spaceship game. You WILL lose core player base by focusing only on making the faces pretty, and forgetting that new spaceships once in a while can be great fun, even if it means phasing out some older ones that no one uses.
3. Did you forget about the old winner? The Tornado was sick, even if I never fly minmattar.
4. Why can't wee see a little race variation? The peregrine was sweet.
5. Congrats to the winners. For all my complaints, I wouldn't be able to come close. Great design, great artwork, and I hope they show you the respect of implementing them.

Im a lil dissapointed... Don't get me wrong, I love the ships they picked, and I really look forward to flying them in game... especially since their amarr, Im hoping that they include at least the top 3? Cause I just got Amarr Battleship 5... and the Oblivion is smexeh. But I digress... There are several ships that should have gotton the top 3, in my personal oppinion.

Also agree with other posters that if the voting was done in a direct on Eve online instead of Facebook I think we would have seen a different vote. I personally wont sign up for Facebook just to vote for some crap, or get a coupon, or text my grandma, or find out info about a new Twilight film, or whatever nonsense is 'in' this week.

I believe the Myriad is Gallente,
I mean look, its symmetric and acutally looks like it wont fly apart when it hits the warp button. So its obviously not minmatar.
Not painted gold so not Amarr
It's Symmetric so not Caldari.
Therefore it's Gallente.
It's actually more a Minbari ship :-p

I like the winners, even though only 1 of my choices made it (Serval).
CCP's art dept could have been very canny, and chosen a non-minmatar battleship to go with the Tornado, so they would only have to design 2 more ships.
As it is, it seems like we will end up getting 4 new BS (Tornado+3), and maybe (no guarantee this winner will make it into game) 4 new BC. yay!

I've voted for the Oblivion and the Mentor. Both got first and second place good to see that. I really like the mentor for fully fitting the amarr design but still being original.
As for the Oblivion it has that "luxory japanese look" wich some amarr ships have too. I think Oblivion could be a bad ass ship. Though I think it would fit a smaller shipsize more.
Anyway like both those designs alot! Great artwork!

Only one i really like is the Amarr Command ship. All the rest have been done. Only one with a truly unique Design and nothing in eve is like it. The Myriad Is probably second best. Sorry but the winner and other runners up just look like ships we have with bits moved round or chopped off or mutated. I truly hope the Command ship makes it in one day in some form. Scaled up it would make a awesome mother ship.

Awesome work by all the finalists! I was personally hoping one of the two Caldari Battleships would win but alas. The Oblivion was a good pick and the Mentor was a good choice as winner. The Myriad was also very cool.
Just a shame there was no Caldari love. I guess people just don't appreciate the post-post-post modern square gunmetal gray art style that we in 'The State' value to much! ___

No love for Gallente either, no bulbous green shapes to be seen anywhere.

Of course they look like ships we already have you ******. They are supposed to share design elements and stylistic touches. If anything the command ship is the worst of the winners, becuase it could be from practically any sci-fi universe... Its only even a bit amarr because it has the right colour scheme.

I think CCP could add prizes for best gallente and caldari ships. The mentor ship looks fantastic wish it was minmatar. The minmatar ship looks bad, another flying bug with its weak transparent wings. Ships need to look more offensive like the mentor one, unless its an industrial.
Stop creating more horrible copies of reaper, vargur and go towards hurricanes and maelstroms looking.

Yep they all look pretty damn fine. But not expecting to fly them anytime soon. A year maybe at the earliest. Sure it takes time to make them but oh well.
It would be nice to have a new minning ship that is a bit more skll intensive then the hulk just to keep things interesting. But oh well. Don't have the skills to draw like the winners so back to my corner and my sketches.

Any idea for its' slot layout yet(assuming it makes it in-game)? Let's see...Minmatar Vagabond/Force-recon derived so it should be a shield-tank, and speedy, soooo....
I'm thinking:
HI--8 slots total, 5 or 6 guns, 2 or 3 missile/utility (Like a Cyclone/Claymore, and with the cloak in one of the latter slots) MID--6 LO--4 RIG--2

Originally by: Destination SkillQueue The mentor is a good choice for the winner.
Really? Congrats to Alex and all but the Mentor was *the* most boring out of all the designs - even the indy put it to shame. What made people (ostensibly) vote for this?? The command ship - which looks hideous imo - is at least unique and follows the Amarr's new fetish for building 1/2 a ship.
Winning order should've been 1/2. Serval/Oblivion, 3. Myriad, 4. Command ship, 5. Mentor.

I agree with Nares, the Mentor fits with the game "look" a completely "out there" design would look wierd even if better. and finally Amarr get a vertical looking ship, I love "erect" ships :) Not fussed on the Minnie ship, the poor Minnie need a ship of substance instead of yet another that looks like you could snap it with your fingers. SURELY the Minmatar have been building ships long enough to put something decent together lol.

In regard to building more new ships, I tend to agree, in rl a new car is released each year from every manufacturer, why can't we have the same. "I used to fly the 113 model Scorpion but now i fly the 114 model with a few tweaks to the design" But don't take away the current ships, or else you risk losing your "fave" ship. (except maybe the Moa and Domi...man they fugly lol)

Just a thought, but could it be possible to replace the current Tempest design with the Freeborn design?
I mean the Mealstrom and Tempest look like crap and are pretty much alike. Would be nice to have a Minmatar BS that didn't look like someone spilled a bottle of glue on the design table glueing all the odd bits together at random and then announced "ok, that will have to do for the Minmatar".

But seriously, what happened to the rule that the four runners up would be the top entries from each of the four races? Am I the only one who remembers this rule and sees a slight problem with having two Amarr ships, one no-faction ship, and no Caldari or Gallente ship?
Also, what about the un-specified prize that was supposed to be given to the top entries from the public voting round (the top 20 that went to CCP for judging)? Who are they and what was the prize?
It's good to see that you finally did something about the contest, but there's a serious problem when you don't follow the official rules in awarding hundreds of dollars in prizes.
i think i know what their response to that will be:

Looks like we're destined to see a new generation of Amarr vessels that look like floating Apocalypse bows, ahh well, it's CCP's game, if CCP wants the Amarrians to fly bows, the Amarrians shall fly bows. The Myriad though I think is a very deserving place-very very nice looking, though my overall pick would be either the various Vanguards or the Strategic Battlecruiser(both have a niche waiting for them, in my humble opinion anyway) They may not be the best looking, but they certainly have a place in the game at a future date.

Not to be rude to everyone but every (contest, TOS, EULA, etc) has this magic line. "Sponsor reserves the right to adjust, expand and clarify the official rules through the duration of the promotion." Or something to the same effect. So to see the "final" rules you should probably go read through them again prior to complaining. http://www.evecontest.com/finalvote/officialrules.htm
It seems some are mixing the rules from the deviantart contest and this one. But what do I know I just actually took the time to read both in their entirety. I have only posted this as many complaints are false/defamatory to CCP's image. Either Way, Congrats to the winners as there were many good submissions to compete with.

miss obvious i think that people here couldn't care less about ccp ability to change rules,but to why they are changed?
it is very simple contest,where ccp stated that win ships gonna be from all 4 races,very nice move to keep even score and justice for game if u ask me,yet it was changed,why?
not in many contest around the world have same man/who ever, is holding multiple win places(don't care much but is slightly strange at least to me)
there is no place where u can found answers about deviant contest winner fate and it seams from this contest too so people are curious what is going on.
but thank you for your effort to enlighten me and few others that ccp can do what it wants with their contest and reminding us they they are just honest and awesome people that we shouldn't question ever i kinda forgot about that.

first i'd like to join in on congratulating the winners too, clearly they put serious effort and care into their designs. hard work is worthy of praise. sincerely good effort.
however, i'm glad to hear these may never be seen in game. the only ship i can marginally stand by is the mentor... but even still there's nothing sleek, sexy, or cool about it. it's just another potato in space... at least it's not completely offensive like the others.
the oblivion looks ridiculous. like a large, red floating head, ripped right out of the final scenes of matrix 3. looks like it belongs in a wax museum or horror show behind a window. you know, the pop scene that scares you and then you laugh? not as a BS in a space game. no, no, no.
the amarr command ship? what the... why? design looks completely ridiculous. just no.
serval battlecruiser: looks like a stiff breeze or foul language would snap a wing, let alone my executioners gatling pulse laser w/ radio s. maybe it should be a scout or shuttle, but certainly nothing that would put such a fragile frame in front of a gun.
finally, the myriad industrial carrier... now if it were a bus... or some sort of civilian transport, like those little shuttles you see zipping around in the amarr stations but no one flies... then maybe... but really people, EVE doesn't need another large, oddly rotund shaped ship trudging thru space. seriously.
seriously.

1. This is the second contest. The Tornado won the first (with far better prizes, I might add)
2. The ships were chosen out of the top 20 by CCP. The top 20 ships that were voted upon by you. Not the full 47. If your ship didn't get in, it's because not enough people liked the same ship (or couldn't stand facebook even just to vote).
3. None of the winners have any influence on CCP whatsoever. That is very very obvious when you consider the fact that the results are three months late. Whatever gripes you have about it, please pour it on CCP, not the contestants.
4. If you don't like the way Minmatar ships look like they'll fall apart at warp 2.0 AU/s, maybe you should've been Caldari, duh. Duct tape nber alles <3
And if you think these are bad, try looking at the results of the first contest before the uproar (when Tornado wasn't even among the first set of winners because DeviantArt had no idea what the EVE universe was). Short memories... tsk.

If you and everyone else who has complained took the time to read the "rules" and not the BS in this thread you would know the answer to your question.
The first place winner IS going to be in game with CCP reserving the right to change/modify it of course. This is stated in both of the contest's rules. Along with answers to all the other complaints in this thread.
Reading this thread has made me lose faith in what I perceived as a level of "intelligence" to the members of this game. But I see that this game is like every other game ... Full of ******s. enjoy your day

Yep. The Tornado is pretty much the only ship guaranteed to be ingame, it was the precise stipulation in the first contest. (The when, however, is not specified, hehe, but from previous statements by CCP, might take at most a year).
