murder one, you are without doubt the biggest meaningless *****er about Kali content that haunts these already infested boards. Everything isnt to your liking, and you campaign incessantly for changes that only benefit you, most of which are too late to even think of being put into Kali.
Im sure some poor art person is frowning tonight (or would be if they weren't at Fanfest drinking!) and feeling sad that you are vocalising such a rude complaint about their hard work. Personally I think the hype looks pretty good, but remain to be convinced whethers its a better blaster boat than the mega.
There is plenty to my liking. THE ENTIRE LOWER HALF OF MY POST IS PRAISING THE OTHER SHIP DESIGNS. And they're all done by the same guy. 1 crap design out of 8 is about an 87% success rate. Not too shabby.
*SNIP*
... what? lets see what you posted...

I can't possibly put into words how disappointed I am. I was praying to the concept art gods that some how, some way, the design would be changed to the point that it didn't look like a friggin ass pirate's sex toy. But alas, it looks exactly like the concept art, ring and all.
The Hype is hands down the single worst looking ship of all 8 new craft. Guns on its ASS?!?! Why? WHY? Why does it have a pancake in the middle with little dinner plates for engines? The nose looks cool, except for the little side thrusters or w/e those are. The rest of it looks ridiculous. No sense of proportion, no balance.
It looks ungainly and cumbersom. Imagine how that big stick is going to look when it bounces off it's target at 1km/sec and flips end over end as it tries to enter warp. The four engines make for a nice little symmetric elliptical ring right in the middle. Very stale/stagnant looking design. Pure symmetry like that makes it look dead. The ship looks more like a freighter than a battleship. The whole concept just turns my stomach.
Not saying I don't like symmetry either. I like the bilateral symmetry of the other designs. They're great. The Abaddon is probably one of the best looking ships in all of Eve. Hurrcain is increadable, the Rokh is sexy. The Myrmidon looks sleek and purposeful. Hell, I can even get used to the sailboat that is the Maelstrom. But the Hyperion is just garbage.
Lets see... praise... 2nd half of the post... hmm...

Right.
However, i must say, while normally your posts are a tad whiny, you do back up your points, so i give your props for that. :)
Repopulate Low Security!
Goal: To blaster-fit every Caldari ship with a gun slot! :D |
