About darn time they got the models right.
Also about darn time they brought the Magnate back. Glad to see they are doing as the long-missing Astrometrics frig. Very smart CCP.

okay, now this i HAVE to see... will it be in the overview or right-click menu or both? ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ Take away the risk and it would make flying around in space utterly pointless.

While I won't disagree that the Maulus is very nice looking, the Maulus is NOT the astrometrics frig. The Imicus is the Astrometrics frig. and Cov-Ops ships specifically are ships with an Astrometrics bonus. it just never made sense that the Maulus hull was used for the Helios.
Now that Amarr will have an astrometrics frig (The long missing "Magnate" frigate) all races have an astrometrics frig and CCP can correct the error of having non-astrometrics frigs in astrometrics roles. It also creates more variations in the T2 frig range, and variations are GOOD.
Besides. I love my ugly little Imicus. Glad to see it getting some loving. (I DO hope that the new T2 version gets the cool BLACK paint job back. That just looks so much better for a cov-ops than GREEN.)
EDIT: That link posted above my post and in the OP is the MAULUS, NOT the HELIOS. I should know, I have a maulus blueprint, so I see them frequently as I make them

To think I was training specifically for the Helios, because it's the only Covops ships that doesn't look uglier than the T1 equivalent. :) Still, the Amarr and Minmatar ones are being prettified IMO, so I won't complain. --------------- ""Minimum collateral damage" and "Entire star system" do not belong in the same sentence." |

You're an idiot, the screenshot posted isn't a maulus hull, IT IS AN IMICUS HULL(New Helios), congrats on making yourself look stupid.

The Magante never left. nor was ever intended to be ingame as a base model. And were prizes in the Amarr Race championships some 3+ years ago
Basically CCP refused to model a brand new ship, instead just using one they had the model for
changin the model for ships that we have come to know the last 3 years also is kinda silly. Amarr had the Tormentor model they could still make a T2 ship out of.
I want a Tech 2 Burst also.
I can see the changes already on Teamspeak - "Probe jumping in, WTF THE PROBE Cloaked hahahhahahahaha" Other guy - "dude thats the new covetops model. Doh. _________________________________________________________ My Second EvE Video Club Seals Not Sandwichs

NO!!!!
CCP, please do not do this. Please, have some sympathy for those of us who trained for a Helios because it was the best looking covert ops. Don't give us this ugly ship as a replacement!
(Or at least let us take all of those skillpoints from Gallente Frigate V and put them into a shiny new Magnate?)

The Maulus based Helios model and Vigil based Cheetah models are both essentially wrong. They aren't Tech II version of the astrometrics frigates. With the introduction of the Magnate as the long missing Amarr frigate, we can right all these wrongs and fix them to be based from their correct predecessors.

\o/ Yay CCP!
The astrometrics frigates issue has bugged me almost since I started playing. SO glad to see CCP putting this one right.
Is the new "premium content" Helios gonna stick with the Silver/green paint scheme or use the black paint scheme from the "Classic client" imicus skin? (I'm voting for black, btw)

Good news on the Helios refit. Since my Ishkur and Myrmidon were nerfed I've been mostly a Helios pilot, and have always loved the little Imicus. I'll look forward to flying it in its new skin.
Guess that'll change invention a bit -- I'd better go get an Imicus bpo.

WTF?
Covert Op T1 Hull
Gallente = E-war frigate Amarr = E-war frigate Minmatar = E-war frigate Caldari = Astrometrics frigate
So instead of changing the one hull that is inconsistant, you introduce a new hull and change all the others?

So, uhm... those having a Cheetah or a Cheetah BPO now will STILL have a Cheetah or a Cheetah BPO, right ? However, the INVENTION chain will change, so you have to use the "other" T1 blueprint copy to invent, and the "other" T1 ship hull for manufacture, right ?

Yes.
Thre reason that the frigates didn't line up was because the Amarr didn't even HAVE an astrometrics frigate, so it didn't matter. the Devs just chose the hull pattern they liked best that wasn't in use elsewhere. Now that all 4 races have astrometrics frigates, the T2 variants can be made to line up properly.
T1 Astrometrics hulls -> T2 cov-ops ships T1 Electronics hulls -> T2 E-War ships
Just because it was really badly messed up before, and just because sticking with the mistake is EASIER doesn't mean you SHOULD stick with the mistake.

Say it again shall we. The Covert-Ops frigate is not an E-war ship, its a probing ship. It should be based off the astro frigate. Now it is. Cheers
