Amarr ships should not be brown. You know what I am talking about. Nearly everything else is about them is great. They look "armored" with the plating over the black sections. They have great details. The Absolution and the Paladin could use a little less red, but its not a big deal, and the Crusader might use a bit more. The Redeemer, and Zealot are hot, hot, hot hot, hot. Really hot. The 8th turret hardpoint on the Armageddon model is making me speculate all over my pants.
But Amarr ships should not be brown. Gold is not brown. Amarr ships are gold.
Please CCP, tweak the colors of the Amarr ships so they are gold and not brown. Then they will be perfect.

They look mainly yellow to me...
Geddon looks a lil...funky, think it's due to the front and the fact it's now yellow and not actual golden.

Nope, DX8 wackiness wont make the ships brown instead of gold, they will make them less shiney and less shaderey*, but it wont make them brown instead of gold.
*Yes, that is the word i wanted to use

To be honest, from what I've seen, they look like a dirty rusty bronze color, which is not brown, but then again not quite gold. ---

Edited by: Goumindong on 28/11/2007 04:06:46 Tan is a type of brown, i havent seen them looking "rusty bronze" unless you are talking about the current colors on sisi, which might be that, but is in fact gold.

you do notice that the geddon's ina dark system, and you can see the reflection of the blue and such from the system, right?
I think the problem now is the ships take traits from their surroundings, the systems and such, more so than they used to, so that plays a major part in what the ship will look like. In other words, like they said, the ships are more reflective in places to show the materials in which they're made from.
Also when you think about gold, is there honestly that much gold in the galaxy to slap it on a ships surface? There's like 2-3 panals atleast on most amarr ships that are actually gold. You have to take scale into thought aswell, how much gold would say a whole rev take?

Zealots t2 color is green. This is fine and good.
Here is a picture of the Omen.
Notice the trim. There are two colors, a silver trim, and a gold trim.
Omen
The Amarr ships should be the gold trim colour, and if they need trim, it should be that cool silver, or the light tan. Then the "undercarrage" would be black to represent the "unarmored" sections.

I like the new colors more.
Gold is too gawdy and ugly and hard to look at. One example is the new retribution... it's just too much, it looks too fake. It's over the top. It still looks GOOD, I just like it less than say, the colors on the bestower.

Maybe you are seeing something I'm not. I haven't seen this 8th turret hardpoint on the Geddon you speak of. Then again, I haven't seen any pics of it from top or bottom, so I've prolly just missed it. If it's getting an 8th turret.... *twitch* glee!
But I have to agree with the colors a bit. They look a bit more like a dusty yellow than the gold that is evidently possible in that pic of the Omen. ______________ Eloquence belongs to the conqueror.

The Armageddon does NOT have 8 turret mounts. They (ccp) just missplaced the 7th turret so that the 7th mount stays visible empty if fully fittet. This is just lazyness on ccp's part, not a "omg 8th turret soon" conspiracy.

Hey, the empire doesn't have that much gold to spare anymore.
With the EMP-eror gone, and no new EMPress on the way, we just can't spare so much resources on our "fleet".
And the old ships are just so worn out.
Quite fits the story if you ask me.

And the Viator is now a dull brown and has lost the headlights how can they do that to that lovely shiny green finish?
And orange and brown mining vessels yuk! it's pretty boring looking at them at the best of times, at least make mining ships a little more pleasent/easier on the eye.
And boy I didn't think the Raven could get uglier!
The Retribution! I love it totally OOT, how an Amarr ship should be. Unlike the tatood Anathema that is just silly from what was a cool black finish.
But overall I love the new look, just needs some tweaking on some ship models.

People could also state you could spend your time rather skilling amarr and learning to fly them properly than whining about them, cause they are some seriously nice ships. Except maybe the recons, they got hit too hard.
On the golden color, the new color lacks shineyness, the old colour was far to comic-gold-like, something in between would be perfect.

Anyone who says the Amarr look rubbish are either out of their mind or have no proper sense of style whatsoever. Yeah, I know, someone's going to come along and say "it's personal perspective you evil troll!". No. There is a difference between saying something "looks rubbish/bad/like poo" and "I don't like it". SOmething can look good or bad in terms of quality, whether you like it is up to you - but it changes nothing in terms of quality.
Also, there isn't a single "brown" Amarrian ship - and certainly not **** coloured ones either. The default is more like a beige/cream. Saying that they are brown is a complete overexaggeration of the truth.
Secondly, they look good as they are. They look BETTER than the old ones. The quality is higher - the style is better!
And in fact, plastering the Amarrian ships in pure gold WAS done - if you look at WIP Trinity screenshots - and I can tell you, it doesn't look as good as what they do now, trust me. ------

I like the new look of the Amarrian ships alot myself. The old gold was neat, but realistically didn't make too much sense, at least at the scale we saw it. The Amarr Empire is huge, and old. They have countless ships, some of which have been in service for what, centuries? These are old, reliable warhorses that have seen action. On top of this, the vastness of the Empire (and the huge number of ships it would need to produce to police and protect it) means that the ships are not going to be elaborately decorated, especially not gilded bow to stern. The new look screams "utilitarian" while at the same time is stylish enough to hint that there is something more to them than simple efficiency. I think its a good compromise.

Edited by: Missy X on 02/12/2007 05:00:38 Since it came straight after my post I'm assuming that the ship in question is the new Prorator (which means no guns and pepperoni fo the pew-pew brigade). If so I'm glad that the Prorator is the sexiest ship in the game. But even if the Prorator looks the same as it always did, it's still better looking than just about every other ship out there. Sexy transport ships is the whole reason why I became a hauler. Even the Minmatar ones look good.

seriously come on guys, amarr has some of the coolest looking ships in the game, i think the whole "we don't have cap to fit a proper tank and power our turrets" has undoubtedly gone to your heads.
and it's true that you guys need the cap boost thingie.. but this whole rant.. is not full of win.
the whole spectrum of ships of all races have been changed and imo they all look great, they just don't look the way they used to look, but by all means if u want things to just stay exactly the same, then just run the old version of the graphics. no harm no foul.
the ships you got now look amazing, and u'll get balanced with the fitting thing if it fits with the overall balance sooner or later, which it just might.
but go out and enjoy your ships, especially when trinity launches the 5th, well actually the 6th to be entirely accurate, dt and all that. and quit this nonsense. you probably haven't even been out of the system you got moveme'd to in trinity on sisi yet, to see the variations either in different systems. seriously, you'll appreciate it.
