Tyr Vaantau Amarr Peregrin Avionics	Posted - 2007.11.30 21:30:00 - [1] I guess CCP decided that there was too much red afterall :( Comparison Image I actually preferred the really-red one - and so did a lot of people I spoke to. What do you think? ------
Troye Gallente Strix Armaments and Defence	Posted - 2007.11.30 21:36:00 - [2] 1st Picture: "A hawk which has just dipped its beak in the blood of its latest victim" 2nd picture: "Fat chicken with a splatering of red" _______________________________________________
Tarron Sarek Gallente Endica Enterprises Alternative Realities	Posted - 2007.11.30 21:56:00 - [3] Inverted colors? Oh man.. it looked gorgeous. ___________________________________ - Balance is power, guard it well - Please stop using the word 'nerf' Nothing spells 'incompetence' or 'don't take me serious' like those four letters
Sara Finn Amarr Epitoth Fleetyards Vigilia Valeria	Posted - 2007.11.30 22:04:00 - [4] The other Carthum ships did pretty well, and look better with the 'more red' approach. In fact, when looking at a Pilgrim, you can actually tell it's a Carthum ship now, where under 'eve classic' it looked like somekind of Viziam/Carthum hybrid. The extra red on the Guardian looks fantastic, although that could be the better Augoror model. Actually, if I had a complaint for the Amarr ships, it would be the Viziam ones. They're missing their bright silver armour plating that used to define the group (i.e., Zealot and Prorator). The silver seems much more muted with the new skins. This doesn't include the Sentinel and Redeemer, as I really haven't seen a lot of pictures of them.

Escobar Noreaga Amarr F.R.E.E. Explorer Atrum Tempestas Foedus	Posted - 2007.11.30 22:35:00 - [6] personally i thought it was too red myself, i would have been even happier if they went with the same colour scheme as the zealot. but imo the inverted red is better the the old.
Cadiz Caldari No Quarter. Vae Victis.	Posted - 2007.11.30 22:37:00 - [7] Edited by: Cadiz on 30/11/2007 22:36:41 Looks less like a Blood Raider ship now; I like it. Did they change the Paladin as well so it no longer looks like a used feminine hygeine product? crosses fingers for Gallente baby blue being changed to a genuine teal or something ------ Director, No Quarter "There is no problem that cannot be solved by the judicious application of violence."

Xenomorphea Gallente	Posted - 2007.11.30 22:48:00 - [9] Originally by: Troye 1st Picture: "A hawk which has just dipped its beak in the blood of its latest victim" 2nd picture: "Fat chicken with a splatering of red" /signed Erm ... this is (with due respect) typical CCP : NOBODY complained about the red Absolution (1st picture), it looked absolutely GORGEOUS. In fact, I think everybody agrees that ALL new Amarr ships look simply amazing, both in model detail and texturing. OTOH a lot of players complain about the color scheme of other ships that used to look beautiful before Trinity (for example the mighty black Hyperion, or the fearsome Brutix, now look absolutely disgusting in gray/baby blue, with portlights white instead of aquamarine blue ...), but hey, expect no improvements there. Sigh. I'd love to be proved wrong. Xeno

Dude? why you have to say that... my "hawk beak dipped in blood" image so so much nicer _______________________________________________
Kel Dario Amarr Blue Sky Inc	Posted - 2007.11.30 22:55:00 - [11] I like the look of the Absolution with a lot of red. The inverted color one just look dull
Imperator Jora'h	Posted - 2007.12.01 01:51:00 - [12] Originally by: Kel Dario I like the look of the Absolution with a lot of red. The inverted color one just look dull The pics lack the shiny factor you get in person. Limits of JPEGs. As to the OP I think you have your ships backwards. The current Trinity graphic is the less red one on the right. Your pic says the old one is on the right.
Kurogauna	Posted - 2007.12.01 01:57:00 - [13] LOL NO! CCP changed the color of the abso and not the baby blue ...tell me its a joke! - Real men tank hull.

In fact, I think everybody agrees that ALL new Amarr ships look simply amazing, both in model detail and texturing. I don't agree. I thought some of the carthum ships looked horrible (Paladin and Absolution particularly... Guardian and others not so much.) This is a big step in the right direction, IMO. I'd love to see this same change applied to the Paladin.
dav	Posted - 2007.12.01 02:07:00 - [15] Edited by: dav on 01/12/2007 02:25:51 i like the rev one with shiny gold as dominant color with red highlights :D i like the total red more...
Cha Jeng Zenith of Things	Posted - 2007.12.01 02:16:00 - [16] I like the one with more red a lot more!
Terex193 Amarr Advanced Security And Asset Protection	Posted - 2007.12.01 02:41:00 - [17] i <3 the the first one,sucks they changed it :( Insert Catchy Signature Here
Balaurah	Posted - 2007.12.01 03:03:00 - [18] noooooooo I loved the extra-red absolution, was an awesome suprise when I logged onto test server and saw it. new one looks... meh, the sections that look like they shouldn't be painted being lovely red, while the main parts are a dull tan. yuck
Ricchar Drogo	Posted - 2007.12.01 04:13:00 - [19] Red was hot...unique...different... Gold with a little red...bleh same old boring gold IBTL
Cailais Amarr VITOC	Posted - 2007.12.01 04:16:00 - [20] Really red wins - change it back please ccp. C. Originally by: Jenny Spitfire Dehumanisation - griefers are cool and if you are not a griefer, you do not belong here.
Cosmo Raata Black Nova Corp Band of Brothers	Posted - 2007.12.01 04:20:00 - [21] Geez CCP, way to fix something that wasn't broken. How many man hours were spent on making something that was widely considered beautiful to something dull and boring? Perhaps it was just too cool to go along with Amarr the nerfed to hell race. Don't Ban me for my Love of Amarr!
Talla Hurzin	Posted - 2007.12.01 06:10:00 - [22] You people have NO eye for colour balance, design, or weight. The red-gold colour scheme was horrendous. Instead of the gold accenting the red, it was drowned out by this very deep, suffocating sea of red. It's much to bold of a colour to be the primary element of a design, especially coupled with the more passive (in this case) gold. With the changes it has the perfect amount of accents, and the red doesn't seem nearly as bold. As an artist I found the old scheme to be almost down-right offensive. /emote dons flame-proof suit
Ben Booley The Black Rabbits Academy The Gurlstas Associates	Posted - 2007.12.01 07:54:00 - [23] /me puts on fire suit I thought the mainly red one was just too bright and it hurt my eyes, much prefer the gold one with red highlights. I suspect that the JPEGs aren't doing it justice, and it will look even better (and shinier) in person.
TerrorWOLF PURE Legion Pure.	Posted - 2007.12.01 09:07:00 - [24] I must say that the less rad on looks better. The all rad just looked to blood rider like. May Your Death Be Slow And Painful
Laechyd Eldgorn Caldari Karjala Inc. Onnenpyora	Posted - 2007.12.01 10:28:00 - [25] Edited by: Laechyd Eldgorn on 01/12/2007 10:30:13 Ohnoes. The red one was so much more delicious. tbh. Red abso is like space-ferrari. I was actually condidering training for amarr. :/
Lardarz B'stard Amarr Dark Knights of Deneb Against ALL Authorities	Posted - 2007.12.01 11:39:00 - [26] I like it - it looks less like a pigeon now * Yeah, that's right... it was me all along. And I would've gotten away with it if it hadn't been for those pesky kids
Hirana Yoshida Behavioral Affront	Posted - 2007.12.01 11:55:00 - [27] It's much better with a toned down colour scheme. Manufacturers signature modifications shouldn't be allowed to overwhelm the basic theme. When did the Khanid Kingdom get into financial trouble and started taking on passengers? All the lovely black ships look like cruise liners with all those portholes :)
Girly'girl Minmatar Nuclear Halo Insurgency	Posted - 2007.12.01 13:53:00 - [28] The new version ain't that bad, but the old one was really nice. It was one of the most beautiful models on Trinity and they changed it, oh well. It seems to me that they also toned down Paladin's red color a bit in the latest SiSi patch? It's the same but less bright. That seems really bad too, I loved the Paladin a lot as it was (still nice). Well I'm happy that they haven't touched the Damnation, which might still be the most beautiful model in Trinity. If they did something to that I would be truly ****ed.

As an artist I found the old scheme to be almost down-right offensive. /emote dons flame-proof suit I second this. Also being an artist, the really red version was just too much to look at for me. It was overwhelming, and like you said, offensive. Also, to everyone else: don't judge this new color scheme just by the screenshots. When you get in-game, it's actually quite shiny and pretty. I like it much more.

The current Trinity graphic is the less red one on the right. Your pic says the old one is on the right. Oh bugger. You're correct. New point of reference: NEW Absolution is in my sig, other one...isn't. I do know my left and right, by the way. I think it was just a typing error. ------
