Dear Father Grigory,
Please be adviced that "camo" is not a good way to communicate a "space navy" identity.
The reasons are obvious. Insert 500,000 words of random citation of relevant whinings here.
Please, if CCP is heading toward the direction of fixing all the old outdated wrong inappropriate stuff, please STOP making space camos.

At least, considering it's used by Gallente navy, they should have made it pink and baby blue camo, not green. Please visit your user settings to re-enable images. |

Because green and black is the traditional colours of the Gallente navy, harking back to the decisive battles of the first federation in the megaswamps of Gallente Prime.

Could be disruptive camouflage at least. Wouldn't make any sense neither, but it would be cool. So... no affordable NEx store... no full-fledged Incarna... no casual content... no solo content... no PvE content...-á
Why should I keep paying to play this game? |

Okay you know what navy skins SHOULD be?
A flat neutral colour like a grey or a white or a black or something
With highly reflective coloured portions corresponding to race.
So, say, the navy hookbill would be mainly a dark grey with a few shiny blue sections on it.
Colour each navy's "stripes" according to faction: Caldari Blue, Gallente Green, Minmatar Red, Amarr Yellow.
Leave Space Camo for custom skins. |

It makes perfect sense. Targeting in EVE is not visual at all. Advanced space ships would be entirely reliant on their sensors. The only point to having a space ship any colour is for aesthetics! :D Make it pretty! Now if you think the camo is ugly then that is a fair point :O But saying it doesn't make sense... doesn't make sense! Ferox #1 |

To disorient or to made it difficult for the enemy to estimate its type, size, speed might just be useful in space while hiding or blending is a total non-sense in space. |

From a logical standpoint saying "oh, it's jungle cammo because they had jungles" is dumb. When you see a tiger-striped SR71 blackbird IRL let me know. Or a jungle cammo F-16. Or jungle cammo ANYWHERE in ANY modern military outside of the combat fatigues of soldiers, especially in airforce or navies that would handle projects like that. In militaries they use cammo because it's functional for hiding behind bushes. If they need something to look good they say f*ck that sh!t, we're gonna make it look good.
But ultimately, it looks like sh!t. Whatever the technical skills of EVE's art team, the art director sucks at art. |

It's just incase you land in a forest. I like the Rattlesnake and Rhea. I think they look good.

One of the biggest points about art is that it's subjective. What you see as utter **** and terrible art, others (like me) see as flavorful, interesting, and fun. If we were going for realism, all the ships would be boring, including your precious Police Comet. Those flashing red and blue police lights are just as pointless as the camouflage. |
