Ahahahha :P Helios got visually nerfed.
It's still a good cov ops... but you may have to drink until it's pretty when you fly it.
An Achura talking about 'visually nerfed'. That's comedy gold

Hey, if anybody would know they would. You might even say they're experts on the subject.

Well I can fly the Helios and the Buzzard but always preferred the Helios if for nothing else than the lava lamps. Alas the new look is not nice in the slightest, even cloaked I'd know it looked ****e, so it's off to the Buzzard for my probing needs. |

Damn, this really bites. I really liked the original model so much better than this lopsided piece of **** that we have to use now. When I think of space ships, the Maulus hull comes to mind, not this.

What I'm wondering is what was going through the designer's head when he spewed forth the Imicus model. I repeat, it resembles a LOPSIDED MONSTROSITY made out of SCRAP LOOTED FROM A 50's ERA SCRAPYARD that was WELDED TOGETHER BY A CR4CKHEAD.
Yeah, how dare CCP let people from the Minmatar Art Department design a Gallente ship!
See what I did there? |

Per the patch notes...
Quote:
The Anathema has had its model changed. It will now use the Magnate hull instead of the Crucifer hull
Here are a few pics of a Magnate (the only ones that I could find were pretty dated)...might not be a bad replacement.

Let this die ffs. I don't believe a person who says they spent month training up to fly a ship only because it looks agreeable to them. What utter rubbish (unless you only bothered training up the basic skills to get 'into' the ship).
Guys its the same ship. Leave it at that. otherwise, make more whining threads with an actual solution, i.e. change the imicus model (thus changing the helios model).
Plus I like seeing the Imicus in this new light. For people who like a T2 Maulas, you always have that keres...

TO EVERYONE IN THIS THREAD!!!!
I implore you to share your thoughts with the CSM people because apparently CCP are too stubborn to
1) Care
2) It's Gallente, they're supposed to be nerfed
3) Care
So I beg you to post here http://oldforums.eveonline.com/?a=topic&threadID=795958 and VOTE YOUR SUPPORT!

Hats off to the CCP ship modellers / art dept for the OLD Helios hull, it looked the part of a prober ship. You can see the original designer loved the ship, their job and put some thought into it.
Can't say the same for the new one, no love put into that model, I wouldnt be proud of it!

I too am disghusted beyond belief at the new Helios model. Butt-Ugly does not begin to describe it.
The only good side is that the damm thing should always be cloaked, so if I zoom out enough I don't notice.
CCP has repeatedly screwed up the whole modeling concept. There should not be ANY ships 'based on the T1 hull' - just make a nice new ship for all of the T2 variants. What is the point in 'basing off a T1 hull'? We live to see pretty spaceships, and now we got half of the ships as some sort of upgrade on an existing model.
It just makes no sense. CCP model designers must either be lazy, or CCP don't wanna pay new model designers. |

I felt like being physically sick when I saw the new model.

I'd be far more pis*ed off at these changes if it wasn't for the fact that my probing alt also has Amarr frigates V trained... the new Anathema is pure sex. |

I really wouldn't care all that much about any model changes. It's the fact that whatever idiots design half the ships think it looks good to be asymmetrical. Sorry, but it's built into our genes, symmetry is just way more pleasing to the eye.
I started in a Buzzard, and I'm one of the few that crosstrained for the Helios ONLY because it looked better. The extra low slot is a nice bonus, but it could have been exactly the same in every regard and I'd still have trained for it. Oh well, time to go back to my Buzzard I guess. |

The Buzzard is kinda ugly too, but now it's all I'm gonna fly after I lose my Helios because the new one is ugly enough that it makes me wanna puke every time I look at it.
The good thing about the Imicus not having a T2 variant was that you could pretend it didn't exist.

I can only hope they use the hull for some epic new T2 awesomeness. I can see WHY they did this, basically bringing the ship hulls in line with their intended roles. I guess the only hope for a T2 Maulus would be as some kind of mini-recon ship.
Can't see that happening soon though, since if you want a small cheap frigate-sized sensor damper you just use... a Maulus. :)
I take it you haven't heard of the Keres?

Apparently Im alone liking the new hull.
Granted the old Helio was pretty, but the new one looks like a sneaky-sneaky scanner ship. They are not supposed to be pretty or sleek. But leave a impression this is a ship with a very specific role.
Personally, I'd like some antennas and what nots on it

This tbh. Maybe people would not be so upset if they'd done a nicer job on the new imicus-based skin. Make it the richer green like the Ishkur, and add some of those nice half-clear spiral pointy things and we might be in business...
edit: and some blue window/dome things
