One thing I always hated about EVE ships is how the DEV's purposely tried to make almost every ship asymmetrical...
The best looking EVE ships are the ones that are symmetrical IMO...
I'm involved in the Infinity ship designs, I think some of them look way better than any EVE ship, at least until I see the new DX10 EVE ships. Maybe they actually improved some of the designs...
How many Current Earth vehicles are asymmetrical? Percentage wise, not very many. Infinity is striving for more of an Earth based ship design concept, whereas EVE ships don't look like the Babylon or Homeworld Earth type vessels...

Edited by: Death Kill on 01/08/2007 10:41:15 They look horrible. They look like something designed in the 70's or early 80's. So far, all this game has going is nice looking planets and thats it.
And those ship names are incredible rubbish.

Indeed. See, this game is made by a bunch of n00bs...probably in their bedroom. This game is gonna fail and its not even going to launch.

Symetrical ships always get a bonus in my book. They may look sweet as, with textures on them. Even the scale of them is grand. As for the game itself, silly nae-sayers. As long as it has great content, it won't matter. But no one can say if it's good or bad because it's not even out.
People never understand something that's different then the standard 'fare' anyways. Lack of imagination really. (These days it's PvP frag fest or nothing eh?) Think, use that brain of yours for a moment. There's more to gaming and life then what everyone else does.

Some good designs there, but others such as the kraken, albion look a bit naff, the nabilone is just horrible imho.

While the designs aren't bad they are rather boring and generic sci-fi ships.
While alot people do hate eve ship designs being asymetrical at least they look original.

The ships are designed by ppl in their bedrooms, I should know, I have designed ships for that game...
There are currently no ships that are for sure in the game...
There will be a ton of player designed, modeled & textured ships submitted for approval.
After approval there will most likely be some type of voting, to see which ships make the final grade.
It's a lot of fun to be part of... And if some of you hate the designs, oh well...
I mean, we're talking pre-alpha stuff here and you guys are crying over some of it... Sheesh...

Every single one of them, bar none, looks like something produced for a low budget generic 80's sci-fi movie.
There's like, little to no imagination to the designs and yet again we're seeing ships that are symmetrical and somewhat aerodynamic.
I was really impressed with the backdrops and the texture work on planets etc... but this is really dissapointing.

I agree with Verone.
You don't need symmetry and aerodynamics in spaceships. You need those things if you're designing the next F1 car.
Go crazy with the design!

QFfrackinT! Mark of very creative, even artfull design is that people love & hate it. Like in EVE.
The above modells are bit boring. IMHO. _ Mal-`Appears we got here just in a nick of time. What does that make us?¦ Zoe-¦Big damn heroes sir.¦ Mal-¦Aint we just.¦ |

Well, that's the style the lead DEV wants, classic looking "Earth Type" ships...
Which was always something I thought EVE was missing...
I was never impressed by EVE ships, but the game play is what kept me here. I guess that's what matters in the end. Good addictive gameplay...

USS Nimitz
Personaly I like the look of alot of those ships. Never been a fan of the bubble or round look of most ships though.
And I'm a fan of symetrical myself. To me it just looks strange when you see one wing with a thruster in the back of the ship and the other wing is way up on the nose with 3 thrusters, to me it looks like that wing is being pushed forward and eventually off the ship by the thrusters.
So far the only 2 asymetrical ships that I like is the kestrel and the cormorant (it's a pansy destroyer but damn is it sexy).

The thing about Eve ships is that, even when they're ugly, there is a clear sense of design standards that are consistent for each race. After a few months of playing, it's usually clear what race produced a given ship, even if you've never seen that particular ship before. Maybe you don't like the look of all the ships in Eve, but I think they all show a sense of inspiration.
I must chime in a 'me too' on Verone's comment--these ships have little creativity behind them.

That's mainly due to texture colors.
Amarr - Gold Gallente - Green Caldari - Gray Minmatar - Brown
The models themselves do not really look like the ships we see in Babylon 5, Homeworld, BSG, or any other Sci-Fi movie or show for that matter. They look more like Farscape & Lexx ships. Not really what is associated with the classic Earth style ships.
But that's fine, EVE has a different style, good for EVE. Infinity will have a style more in line with what most other Sci-Fi themes contain... That's the way the lead DEV wants it...
I like a lot of the designs I see in Infinity, and I dislike quite a few as well...

EVE ships are EVE ships, they are designed by a proper concept artist. The ships in infinity looks infinite crap and you can tell its designed by an amateur.

I have a friend who does sci-fi concept art, and his random scteches are ten times better.

But the question was is can YOU do better? And is your friend doing the concept art for this game?
