Caldari haters

The carriers and dreadnoughts could need a face lifting, especially the textures... even when they've changed recently.. they are still blurry and ewww with highest settings.

Also scale up the Carriers and Stations.

All answers that are not GÇ£ApocalypseGÇ¥ are wrong.

Blackbird and Griffin are awesome, hands off.


Raven: Rotate 90 degrees and make it vertical

All answers that are not GÇ£ImicusGÇ¥ are wrong.

Dominix needs only a dorsal fin and whale tail added, and a drone bay on top like a blowhole.

Imicus is fine. I like to think of it as the developmentally challenged sibling of the Ishtar.

All answers that are not GÇ£ImicusGÇ¥ are wrong.

All ships that are Gallente! I don't appreciate art!

Moa.

Blackbird.

Bantam.

Condor.

Griffin.

All answers that are not GÇ£ImicusGÇ¥ are wrong.

The vindicator ...

All answers that are not GÇ£ImicusGÇ¥ are wrong.

Moa is fine. Let the Big Bird keep his briefcase.

I would like ALL of the Minmatar ships to be derustified.
They have been a strong independent faction, with close ties to the Gallente for some time now and i think the rust just isn't realistic anymore.

Color scheme's as is:
Amarr: Gold/Copper
Gallente: Silver/Green
Caldari: Blueish hue
Minmatar: Rust Brown.

Not that i really thought of any good color scheme yet, but i think it can be changed.
How about...... Black with Red details? kinda like the Widow.

Any and all asymmetrical ships.

I'm listening

I think the blackbird needs remodelling too

The most dramatic ships that need a total remodel.. The Dominix.... the Dominix by FAAAAAAAAAAR.

The Dominix is the old workhorse of the Gallente Navy. More to that is that this workhorse has been redone quite a bit, and while being a mainstay of the Gallente Navy, is massively out of date regarding spec's. If I were a gambling man, I would leave the Navy Dominix as the current Dominix hull (the Spacewhale, potato shoe turd), and re-purpose the base Dominix to This:

http://www.deviantart.com/art/Naru-Kami-Final-179403464

That ship took 2nd place. Just tint it green.

I would love the Vexor to be redone, maybe look something like this.

http://baranha.deviantart.com/art/FUJIN-FINAL-181896594

Now looking at its design from the Vexor, the changes are not overly substantial. Again I would leave the Navy Vexor as the original Vexor hull (The Gallente Navy don't like spending isk on new design ships when they can just buy the old ones rotting away for cheap and repurpose them), and change the Vexor and the Ishtar to the above (gives the newer people interesting new ship designs while keeping the old workhorse as the new navy variant).

Yes I know these are iconic, but Iconic does not mean "Stuck as is forever," they aren't historical monuments. The original flavor of the ships will be kept in the navy version of the hulls (which is important as the navy would keep an older model as it would cost the Navy Department Much Less to buy the old Dominix's and repurpose them, than buy the new updated model just to make them as useful as the old models, but cost a bunch more for designer "fluff".

You can design two new hulls for these two old favorites, re-giving them life.

The other benefit, the two above art submissions were submitted through your eve arts contest, so I believe you have the right to use these ship designs ALREADY (submissions are legal tender that they give up the right of the design and maybe used in game as CCP sees fit, check your legal).

If a dominix would look like that i would be flying one all the time.

How they got rusty in space in the first place is something I'd like to know..

That model goes agaisnt ALL standards for Gallente designs. There's no organicness to the hull. Gallente ships inherently have alot of curves.

You are citing the deviantart contest which was a complete disaster. CCP even made their own after the fact because deviantart did not enforce the rules at all. People submitted everything and the kitchensink that did not fit EVE.

The above is a perfect setup for a drone ship, especially a gallente one.

Typhoon.

Primae.

I'm sure we can all agree on the celestis, crucifier, and the asymmetric caldari ships, besides the moa.

I'm pretty sure we will never ALL agree. On whatever.

Asymmetry per se isn't bad, as long as there's a reason for it. Alas, with most ships it's hard to tell.


That said, please remodel the Moa/Gila, thanks.

Bhaalgorn... It needs to be more terrifying... the Geddon hull is not good enough

I'm listening

Imicus is fine. I like to think of it as the developmentally challenged sibling of the Ishtar.

Mega/Mach model has a random engine on top please remove it

Dafuq? No Dominix, Typhoon, Celestis? Did we forget at how disgusting the Bellicose (and variants) is? Fenrir, Obelisk are iffy too. The Aeon being so asymmetrical has always bothered the **** out of me. The Moa and Blackbird are pretty fugly too. Inquisitor, Tormentor, Bantaam, Ibis, god, the Imicus and the Vigil, Burst and Probe. The Wreathe is eh, could be better.


This. So much.

Easy the Domi one of the worst looking ships in the game.

all combat command to have the tier 2 models.

Absolution = harbinger

I was going to say unfuck the megathron model.....

Im not sure if you have one in your area, but please seek an appointment with an opthamologist ASAP.

PLEASE the caracal, it's the only ship that feels like a frigate while it looks like some type of fighter and is designated as a cruiser. If i were a real pilot i would be ashamed to fly and call it a cruiser, it just doesn't have that "awesome/grandeur" factor.Cruisers are quite big ships, and they should feel powerful not wimpy

Symmetry is over-rated in space ship design. There is no need for any specific shape, due to the fact that there is no need to generate lift, and nothing to create drag..
.

I'm listening

It's because the Caldari models feel the most dated. The other race's ships styling seem to age better, while the Caldari ships feel like the 90's still.

Please remodel the Harbinger, Cyclone, Maelstrom.

Thanks

Only thing about the Mega I don't like is the lights point down the slope of the front scoops. I wish they pointed forward, and the Mega would be damn-near perfect.

Also, CCP BunnyVirus, where are those drone forcefields for the drone ships we were promised? (Dragoon, Arbitrator, Thorax etc. don't have them, when they clearly have holes for the drone bays. Also, can we get some visible drone bays on the drone ships (Vexor, Ishtar, Tristan, Dominix)?)

I'd like to see the racial industrial ship designers and builders take a stab at designing and building mining ships, to compete with O.R.E.'s line of mining ships from the Venture class mining frigate, up to their behemoth exhumers. As it is now, O.R.E. has a monopoly on licensing the building of their mining ship designs to shipbuilders throughout the galaxy. At the same time, why not have O.R.E. introduce their own line of industrial freighters capable of large payloads or blockade running.

Perhaps O.R.E. can design and introduce a very sophisticated and costly, but effective drone that can open cargo holds and loot the contents, as well as scavenge the wrecks. Of course, the operator of such a drone would have to be careful not to break any laws and thus become a suspect, and because it is a drone, it would have a limited cargo hold for bringing back the looted cargo hold contents, so it might have to make two trips, or perhaps not be able to fit some items at all. Such a drone would only be able to be operated from specially built ships for the purpose of scavenging wrecks, like the Noctis, for example.

I would like ALL of the Minmatar ships to be derustified.

Golem & Kronos

The Golem is just a Raven with orange paint. Do what you did to the Stealth bombers and make it look bigger and tougher to be like what it's design to be.

The Kronos had a better skin/[paint job before the polish patch a while back it was shiny . Give it a better shine and thicker looking armor. Maybe change the "bridge" elements above the engines to look high tech.

The Paladin had its remodel with the Apoc change. I like it, I mean who doesn't like gold and red?

I think the Vargur looks pretty different and awesome from T1 Tempest already. The sails are changed and look more "efficient" the armor plates, paint and cockpit.

I actually started working on modeling redesigned versions of the retriever but had to stop because of some decisions and now we have to come up with a new design for them :)

I'm listening

What about remodelling Stations? How hard would it be compared to ships?

None of the above.......

I would prefer CCP spend some time fixing all the bags and making the game playable again, EYECANDY does nothing to help these issues......

When you finally get to updating the Abaddon, I would love to see it remade to REALLY look like its original artwork.

That original artwork had different proportions, and a lower wider look, totally awesome to me.

Oh, and Bunnyvirus, your killing me with all this delaying on letting us see the new Paladin!!

The paladin will get its own model, just sayin

I'm listening

Remodeling is quite Easy, but texturing them without losing texture quality is not that easy . We have some ideas how we want to redo them but so far had no time to do it.

Hmm, BunnyVirus seems to be be flying the art department flag.

Most likely an intradepartment contest of getting the most likes during vacation with the UI coders.

Your commitment has been noted, now we just wait for the delivery of eye candy in the next expansion ;)

Not really a fan of any of the Caldari cruisers, especially the Caracal. You could literally turn it into a giant cube for all I care. Just get rid of that current eyesore.

Myrmidon ...

After it had a turret hardpoint removed... the ship has 6 spots in a line for them, but only 5 guns to put there.

my OCD is bothered by that.

Mega/Mach model has a random engine on top please remove it

This should have been a poll, not a thread.

As for ship redesign, please CCP, stay in tune with the spirit of the ships design. Keep the caldari that ridged boxy design, the scrap metal rust of minmitar, the metallic sleek gold of amarr and the oval organic feel of galentea. Just make the ships more visually appealing while staying in touch with their respective traits (i. e. Scorpion). Also please fix the pirate faction ships that don't have a unique hull.

~Rumtin

Just because their named after birds does not mean they take on bird traits. If that was the case then why would they name a ship after an insect?

The odd engine thingi on Mach and Mega looks just stupid and annoying. For gods sake this engine is not even working! Also pls remove the side sponson on the front of the Omen. DonGÇÖt damage my beloved Amarr ships with asymmetric design! Leave that for Minmatar junk ;).

Also Absolution/Prophecy - the model is very cool, but outdated . It is too fat and too short. Make it longer and remove the fat belly, it looks like itGÇÖs pregnantGǪ

BTW if u change my dear Absolution to Harbinger model I will hack EVE, fly a dread fleet to high sec and destroy every station with your clone on it. Then again a Hurricane model on on Sleipnir would be sexy.

Ps. DonGÇÖt care for Caldari much but their entire frigate, cruiser an probably bc line needs a serious work (with nuclear blasts).

That Engine thing on the mega is not an engine

shrugs.... but loads of caldari ships have wings so...

Doesn't mean there not ridged and boxy. Look at their design, each one has sharp (almost) 90-¦ angels. The body on most is very squarish, Kestel, Moa, Caracal, Drake, Raven, Bantan, Rokh, Blackbird, Ferox... each of these hulls have very ridged and boxy like designs to them. Its the Caldari look. Wings or no wings, this is the way they were designed.

Dominix

Imicus

whatever it is it needs to be deleted

Ships aren't necessarily symmetrical in real life. Just look at any aircraft carrier - the command tower will be off the one side of the flight deck, and the deck itself is usually an asymmetric shape.

Not everybody is so OCD as to find even the slightest hint of asymmetry annoying - I personally like them.

That design is more along Caldari lines of ship design - Corax draws heavily on navy/submarine theme. If the devs give me a caldari gunboat looking like that I will give them my firstborn.

nope

just release a symmetrical megathron with dronebay of 75m3 and drone bandwidth of 0Mbit i'm sure it'll be a smashing success
