Initially yes. Than, the dev who debunked the crow debunked his own debunking. Claimed he was given bad info, the model is apparently indeed a CCP test model. Now that doesnt mean it'll make it into this expansion, it could have been the digital equivalent of a sketch drawing on some scrap paper. But once its out, player speculation runs rampant!
Jury is still out on whether they're developing that model or whether it was just an experiment.... |

So I jump through the Gate warp to planet 3 customs office at 70 in my Gila when I start Scanning for Anoms. There are 4 in Local so I pop the D-Scan to see to my Horror a Cheetah and RSS Combat Scanner Probes.
Just then the System Scanner clicks and I see Space Desert. I hit Warp to the first one just as 3 Canes land on grid. I figure they will never find me in there with my clever paint job.
When I come out of Warp my Gila landed in a Space Dessert. I was off by 1 s and my Chocolate Gila was Scanned down and killed. My Pod Breached in Strawberry Ice Cream so it was not a complete loss.

While we are on the subject... I see no reason for the Deimos to have the Federation Navy salad issue/camo paint job. Hopefully they will at some point change it so that the Deimos is gold/silver like other Duvolle Lab ships. |

Don't knock the effectiveness of pink in camouflage. Look up "Mountbatten pink" or "Plymouth Pink" sometime....Something even the British Special Air Service has had occasion to use. :) |

You guy have obviously missed out on reading the lore.
It isn't camouflage, it's SPACE AIDS.
It happens when heathen races have uncontrolled and pre-enlightenment ship building going on. Lore states that it all started when a Gallente space poacher had interconstruction with a Monkeytar. And it has been spreading ever since, to all races except of course to those that were chosen by god.
So, remember when you see a ship stricken by Space Aids, it isn't hiding,. It is God actually hating the pilot.

The green patches reflect black to radar, while the lighter area's reflect black to ladar..giving the ship a smaller apparent scanable area.
they use the cheapest paints so it has real colors in the visible spectrum.
I have actually Un-subbed my acounts,
We need more to do, not more to wear.
E-mail me when CCP has decent content a casual player can access in a 1-2h play period that is actually fun and contributes to long term goals. |

GǪso you go for what looks good and what is traditional instead. i say we go for what looks good, and make a pirate faction that neon-lines their ships to look like something otu of TRON: Legacy (or the original tron, if your feeling nostalgiac), cause i eman honestly, its nigh-impossible to see something in space visually without already knowing WHERE to look, and having the sun behind you to reflect the light back in your direction, so why dont we have big/flashy overly flamboyant ships instead of either Minmatar Rust, Amarrian bronze/brass, and Caldari Gunmetal?
indeed. if we are supposed to go for what looks good, than lets have what looks real good. camo ain't it. |

Not only is space camo stupid, but its random pattern breaks up the forms of the ships and makes them look ugly and hard to "read". |

Amarr is the only Navy Faction I would ever fly (well maybe Minmatar too since the camo is subtle). Space camo is currently the worst thing about ship designs at the moment imo. |

Space camo would be simply having mirrors attached to the hull that reflect the space around it and have the added benefit of reflecting lazors. . .
But then every ship in eve would look nearly the same ...

My cynicism leads me to believe they are putting ugly skins on these ships to motivate people to buy other ones from the Nex store. Creating the market so they are so "successful"

Wouldnt work.
1 you cannot make a mirrior perfect enough to defelct weapons grade lasers, a highly refelctive survace would only provide milliseconds of protection while the holes in the imperfections all mirrors have becomes exploited and blown apart.
2 furthermore highly reflective sensor returns even if they are deflected away from the ship squaking will still lead you to being detected. and you ask why? becuase there is a nice HOLE in my sensor sweep that shouldnt be there.
The way eve handels things is would mean that you're not acutally cloaking you're just fooling the sensors you are not there to the point the system will not call you out on any measue becuase there isnt enough infomration to lock onto let alone to fire at. All ships have this to a degree which is why majority of active electornic foot prints minuts capitol ships are smaller than they are phsycially large. Capitol ships exibit near normal singature reads with signatures much more massive than themselves thanks to all the electronic 'noise' they make.

Why do the military-grade (fleet issue, navy issue) editions of spaceships have standard woodland / desert camouflage paintjobs? It seems so silly and arbitrary. Why in the world would I have brown and green blotches on my stabber unless IGÇÖm flying it through a forest?
To me, GÇ£space camouflageGÇ¥ would consist of a black ship painted with pale colored dots. Now, this would be a pain in the butt to actually see, so IGÇÖm not asking for that obviously. But the camo blotches we have now GÇô seem so slapped on and out of place. Almost any other cool custom paintjob would work, I just donGÇÖt get the camo thing.
Is there something IGÇÖm missing? Is there some lore or anything that explains this peculiar design decision when it comes to ship paintjob?
Are we seeing new paintjobs or customization options come winter expansion?
Thanks developers and community alike, appreciate the inputGǪ

I agree, space camo is lame-o. At least make it digital pattern instead of the standard military camo of what, the 1900's? This is the future CCP, get with it!
