Originally by: OldWolfe Gawker, I will like to see you drive around in a hot shiney car with "Paris Hilton" name plastered all over it. After all, it's just a car and a mean to an end, nothing at all wrong with the colors that draws heads and thoughts towards your general direction, not to mention a lot social implications from such objects. 
If you don't like the fact that we rather have colors that matches EVE-online's THEME and not be a Disney land color, then stay out of the threads.
Well, aside from the fact that I would have no problem driving a hot pink paris car, you realize that in real life you make design decisions on your own, correct? When you go to buy a car you could theoretically purchase any colour you wanted, and pink honda civics drive just as fast as black ones.
Here no one is going to judge you on that basis, because you didn't *choose* to buy a baby blue spaceship. You chose to buy a gallente ship, and baby blue was the only colour available. Until CCP introduces customization no one will care what your ship looks like.
You do realize one thing about real life; there are hardly any pink or bright green cars (or any other custom colors) simply because they're colors based on personal requests. However, the corporations in general looks to the populations preferences of colors and gauge the kind of colors we want upon a spectrum and start selling those colors out.
The same should happen on CCP where CCP gauge the colors we prefer and start offering such colors that the majority of us prefers.
And from the look of it, theres more people really not liking the baby blue colors and other mild colors they gave Gallente, so we're in process of creating a voice to let CCP know we do not like the color schemes and wish it to be changed to something more "Gallente" (deeper blue color if need be as an example).

Well we all know that CCP won't listen, especially since it's coming out in less than a week, so all this whining is irrelevant. You won't change anything. Besides that, since you don't have choice, you won't be judged on those choices. If it's not the opinions of other players you care about, and it's just that your eyes will bleed at the sight of baby blue, then don't use the premium client. Problem solved.
As for being "gallente," I'm no RPer but it seems like if anything this is a step closer to that. Aren't the gallente supposed to be French? The colours certainly fit into my idea of their aesthetic. If you want "grit" I think you're thinking about the wrong race. Just look at the concept art, or the chronicles. Every instance I've seen refers to the Gallente of being more concerned about their political freedoms and enjoying life than war and other "gritty" aspects you associate with EVE.

You really need to chill out, man. If this has you making death threats against CCP's art director, you need to step back a bit and think about how much this game means to you. ---------------- Tarminic - 29 Million SP in pink Forum Warfare |

Hey man, why don't you go play some solitare or hearts or something? Seriously. Take your mind off things. Remind you that they're just games, just like EVE....

the overall color i'm seeing is a sort of sea-green, baby blue is more like this
i dunno, i see a little bit of it in there, but not much at all, it's predominantly the sea-green type color, i don't see it deviating much from this at all...

Edited by: Garrick Konquero on 28/11/2007 21:14:03 I think the Gallente ships look great. Blue-green has always been part of the Gallente color scheme. It's just more noticeable now.
As far as a lack of grit or battle damage: All our hull nanobots and painting drones keep the hulls ship-shape.

I would not mind a "blue-green" but not one that is very close if not baby blue/disneyland color.
All they have to do is make the color a bit more darker.

This is such bull****. I cannot make my character weight more than a three hundred kilos. How am I supposed to properly model myself in the game with no option for a full lengh beard? How come I cannot get a proper "muff diver" shirt from any of the in game stores? How come I cannot be a night elf, etc, etc until all the goons finnaly get banned.

Originally by: Tao Han Lachesis looks a lot better than it used to do. Get on SiSi before you sign any raving madmens threads pleae.
I did go on to the SiSi server and it enforces my feelings even more.
There is no sense of color pride to the gallente ships. It's all in colors that promotes a feeling of "dont take them seriously" mild to null uninspiring baby colors (even including command ship that should've had colors that gives out a sense of command).
The only ships that has anything of the feel of EVE is the navy mega and the faction mega and the Deimos and the navy Vexor. Pretty much it.
Come on, CCP, pick some better colors for Gallente....
Yes because jungle camouflage makes sense in space.  Blue is fine. I take exception to the capitol ships since, they're huge monstrosities, and definitely could have gotten away with a darker more silver/metallic palette but for the most part, the new paint job is survivable.

I'm getting real sick of hearing this. Exactly HOW MANY people do you think train only their native race's ships, considering the ease of crosstraining.
Just about everyone that's been playing more than a year has at least two races ships at hand, a LARGE portion are gallente. I'm one of them. I'm a Caldari pilot with 6m sp in Gunnery, and <1m in Missles. Your base race is of no concern here.

ah yeah, i can see now why there's some complaints...
i was basing my view on the colors off this:
Originally by: Kagura Nikon Gorgeous
THis is the most gorgeous ship I 've ever seen on any sci fi game! SHUT up your whiners!
i think that particular ship looks like it should, that before and after of the obelisk you can definitely see where it went wrong...the brownish color really should be more of a sea-green/metallic green, with the way those two compare now it looks like something out of super mario brothers...
perhaps it's just an issue with some ships, because i do agree with Kagura Nikon that her shot is a beautiful ship...

Now try getting an actual comparison i.e same light, same camera angle, same colour of background light ("hello red sun!" "well hello there yellow sun!" )...

The specular effect on the new obelisk means that the pattern is
- shiny - light colored
No regards on the color of the sun.
That's not hard to understand too.
