Ooh! Anyone able to provide pictures for the Sisi-challenged?

And yes-- dynamic landscape. Do want.

I'm sure that many megacrops.

we also invite all capsuleers to comment on the individual stations they encounter.

...Dynamic landscape?

What is 'dynamic landscape'? It's come up multiple times in this thread and it sounds interesting.

Firstly both Caldari Constructions and the Chief Executive Panel stations are painted in Wiyrkomi colours with the Wiyrkomi corporation logo.
I believe one of the other Caldari Corporations (possibly Expert Housing) was using Nugoeihuvi colours (the red camo). Personally I feel it would be more lore fitting for corporations without their own skins to just continue using the default colours rather than flying colours of rival business interests (at least for the Caldari State)

Also, how do Ishukone stations look? The Rhea, for instance, looks entirely too dark at present as it lacks the gradient that lightens up the Eagle, Buzzard, etc.

They are as ugly as the Rhea link

I fancy myself fairly well versed in EVE lore, especially Caldari lore. Expert Housing and Expert Distribution are NOH subsidiaries. Also Expert Intervention, but that's the DUST corp.

Also, Caldari Constructions-- wasn't that a KK subsidiary? Isn't that how Heth ended up being tapped for KK CEO?

• Expert Distribution, Modern Finances and Nogueihuvi are the same (all ugly as hell )
• Intaki and Impetus look nice. Impetus, Material Aquisition and Quafe are the same.
• Alliastra and TransStellar shiping are the same
• Joint Harvesting and Khanid look almost the same (except a little red area)
• Khanid is far to dark (I can barely see 90% of the station)
• Mordus Legion has normal gallente stations
• The Gallente Logistics Station doesn't seem to have different variants at all
• The light reflevtion on the Caldari Administrative Station is far to bright
• Sansha's Nation is pretty underwhelming (seems to be all standard)

All in all I can only find about 5 different stations per main faction. And most of them look very similar

I'm sure that many megacorps, Caldari Constructions included, would not hesitate to allow their good friends and associates the privilege of using station decoration as means of advertising...for a percentage.

That said, I am making notes for requested adjustments to these arrangements, and will continue to record these comments for those more suitably situated in the decision making process to judge accordingly.

Your voices are heard.

Did a little 70-ish jump tour of New Eden this evening.

• Malkalen Ishukone paint is subtle but attractive ("gold leaves"). Is Malkalen's old ruined station getting some custom tweaks

Here you go.

The following comment may seem harsh, because I am a roleplayer....

None of that seems harsh, and this type of feedback is why we have Test Servers and threads like this one. We are all making the world of Eve, and that should be fun for everyone.


Re: Caldari Constructions/Kaalakiota/Wiyrkomi

This is both a lore and art move. We want to encourage visual variety while offering opportunities for deeper immersion. As there are nearly twice as many Kaalakiota Stations as Wiyrkomi, this is a good way to keep that ideal.

According to Lore, Heth's denunciation and historic association with Caldari Constructions has had a impact on the value of CC real estate. As Kaalakiota has more than 170 other stations, taking money from a friendly non-rival for the privilege of rebranding an undesirable subsidiary is a smart move that simultaneously suggests distance and increases capital.

Both KK and Wiyrkomi are patriotic bloc megacorps. The Seituoda family is known to be in pursuit of diversification, though has not yet been particularly successful in that regard. To help advance their high-end market goals, Wiyrkomi has paid for the higher profile. Constructions took the branding, and Kaalakiota approved.



Many of the other changes suggested here should appearing on Sisi in the next few days. We hope you'll keep an eye out for other suggestions that haven't been addressed.

So.... this kinda belongs here, and kinda doesn't.

But the Sansha stations in Stain.... any chance of replacing them with some of the cool Sansha Battlestation models found in certain missions?

They are highly, highly factional stations and right now it seems silly they carry the banners of every other faction in the game but their own.

If you want the change why not go all the way and write a nice lore piece about Wiyrkomi buying up Caldari Constructions as a whole, it would allow you to move forward with the graphical changes, give the players something to read and make the lore/story feel like things are still happening.

None of that seems harsh, and this type of feedback is why we have Test Servers and threads like this one. We are all making the world of Eve, and that should be fun for everyone.

I think this is the same for a lot of the NPC Pirate factions, maybe it is something that can be looked at improving in future.
I'll note I didn't check the all the pirate factions so I'll have to do that shortly but it would be nice to see each Pirate (or I should say no Empire) faction flying their own colours or even station models if art ever had time.

*Edit
Okay some some of the Pirate ones are done like Gurista skins on the Caldari stations, missing on Gallente stations which is a shame but this is a tech issue?
