Why did you change the model of the Megathron? Once it looked like a pretty shark, now it looks like one with its fins cut off. I dont get what the sense behind that change is. Please dont let this go live! |

New Megathron looks sleeker and never looked like a shark to begin with (You're thinking of the Proteus, and to a lesser extent, Tengu, with the right subsystems). It may have lost it's fins but it has gained a more definitive visual style, a far better looking engine cluster, and also little animated spinny lights. You have to look for them but they're there. |

I agree. I like the new Megathron model. Wish that the front was curved instead of slanted though. |

New Megathron looks so much better. Make it idiot-proof and someone will make a better idiot. |

There is already an extensive 7 page thread on this.

As to your comments on the new look, I personally like it, and it's going to be better when it goes live. They've fixed some issues with the material resolution in internal builds. |

I found out that the Kronos has a floating hardpoint. Any turret, salvager and tractorbeam, floats in the air when fitted on that hardpoint. Would also like to see that all four turrets fit on the front of the Kronos instead of the current three. |

Love the new model and love the nice engine effects. Especially the glowing rippling effect and the blue glowing light strip around the engines (the one that lights up with the engine effects and warp effects). I think all of the older engine effects should be changed to look more like this.

Yeah, I think the Dominix would be a good candidate for remodelling at the battleship level, definitely. Especially with the new art direction the Gallente are going in; something one could define as a blend of Vexor and Dominix in this style (while cutting some of the awkward lumpiness that plagues the Dominix) would make for one of the coolest looking battleships in the game I think. The engine effects are great too, and there's also some on the Tempest and it's variants, on the sides of the engines. Slowly everything's getting just that much more impressive. |

the old megathron (current one in fact) is really a great beast.
the new one is awesome (as most of the updates on model are in this expansion tbh especially the tempest variants, except the vargur maybe wich is weird) |

The new model is a definite improvement, but I wish they'd get rid of those ridiculous shovels at the front. |

I like the new mega line. In particular, the Kronos. That, is a thing of beauty.

you are right, judging by the work done on the megathron hull, i can't wait to see a similar job done to the domi, hyperion and gallente capitals
keep up this good work, your doin'it right CCP |

if anything it looks like an artist went to work here who knows symmetry or witchcraft. the fins where always ridiculous, the new Galactica bay type things at the back look better. |

I'm in the "don't like it" camp. The fins really added some complexity to the rear of the ship to counterbalance the mass and simplicity of the front. Now, it just looks...simplistic somehow. Then again, I never really liked the look of the Mega all that much. |

From reading these comments here it seems a lot people dont know the difference between a model and a texture. As i said, texture is fine, the model is a joke for all Mega pilots (If there are any left). |
