Jumanat	Posted - 2008.12.13 22:58:00 - [1] Why is everything Caldari so ugly? The ships look like junk and their stations? Are they supposed to be the vandals of the future or something? Just seems with only 4 major races to choose from, why have only 3 that have some asthetic appeal?
Winters Chill Amarr 24th Imperial Crusade	Posted - 2008.12.13 22:59:00 - [2] its not ugly its "fuctional"
Karille Gallente Sharks With Frickin' Laser Beams	Posted - 2008.12.13 23:00:00 - [3] The Caldari favor function over form. We Gallente widely regard this as a bad move. That is why we kicked them out of our system.

Sidus Isaacs Gallente	Posted - 2008.12.14 00:06:00 - [10] Originally by: Jumanat Why is everything Caldari so ugly? The ships look like junk and their stations? Are they supposed to be the vandals of the future or something? Just seems with only 4 major races to choose from, why have only 3 that have some asthetic appeal? Dude, eye candy designs is imo weird in space, whats the point of you ship to look pretty??? :P Caldari design is functional and with the focus of effectivity.

MooKids Caldari Dark Echo Engineering	Posted - 2008.12.14 00:14:00 - [12] Caldari have the most advanced technology of the races (according to lore). Besides, have you seen Minmatar ships and stations? The old joke was that a key construction component for their ships was this. -------------------------------- CCP can patch away bugs, but they can't patch away stupidity.
Jumanat	Posted - 2008.12.14 01:17:00 - [13] Thanks Vaal for getting the reference. Yes, they have the best tech and they are for the most part the better ships, but why oh why do they have to look so hideous? Couldn't some graphic artist take a little more time with them?
Karrade Krise Galatic P0RN Starz	Posted - 2008.12.14 01:19:00 - [14] It's in our genes. Our ancestors were French. ... Oh wait, that's Gallente. NVM! Voluntold, New Webcomic
Colonel Vega	Posted - 2008.12.14 01:33:00 - [15] Pah caldari ugly The minmatar are held together with ducttape and bubble gum
Tentacle Monster Ammatar Free Corps	Posted - 2008.12.14 04:22:00 - [16] Hey, at least their ships don't look like plastic toys with rounded corners so the kiddies don't hurt themselves (Gallente)
Bohoba Caldari HolyKnights	Posted - 2008.12.14 04:28:00 - [17] the Raven looks so cool :) ....................... 10.5 hours a day do you have what it takes ?

Mystic Pete	Posted - 2008.12.14 05:40:00 - [20] Originally by: Karille The Caldari favor function over form. We Gallente widely regard this as a bad move. The Dominix. I rest my case.
Jinx Barker Caldari GFB Scientific	Posted - 2008.12.14 05:43:00 - [21] At least I am happy you are not attacking my rugged good looks. They go over well in the Gallente boy bars! ::::Click The Signature For the Blog::::

soldieroffortune 258 Gallente Trinity Council.	Posted - 2008.12.14 07:09:00 - [26] Originally by: Winters Chill its not ugly its "fuctional" no its ugly Originally by: soldieroffortune 258 "*Eve is about making yourself richer while making the other guy poorer*"
James Holcomb Caldari Davy Jones Locker	Posted - 2008.12.14 07:53:00 - [27] I don't find hardly any of the Caldari ships ugly. Matter of fact, it is the style of the ships that made me want to fly them. They are not symmetrical from bow to stern which makes them very unique to look at.
Lazyeye Larry	Posted - 2008.12.14 08:22:00 - [28] Originally by: Dyaven Originally by: Jinx Barker At least I am happy you are not attacking my rugged good looks. They go over well in the Gallente boy bars! You have a lazy eye. That I do!
Taipan Leviathan United Nations Space Command Marine Corps	Posted - 2008.12.14 10:10:00 - [29] Not evry ship can be as pretty as a hurricane. Deal with it.
Morgan La'Chance Caldari Dynamic Reallocation and Logistics	Posted - 2008.12.14 10:48:00 - [30] Come now, there are plenty of Caldari ships that aren't Moas or non-premium Ravens. Gallenteans, on the other hand, will never be able to shake off the shame that is the Exequror-hulls, Dominix-hulls, Moros, Celestis-hulls.
Ren Surkova Sniggerdly Pandemic Legion	Posted - 2008.12.14 11:19:00 - [31] the dominix is the best looking ship in the game sig filla, thread killa
Pr1ncess Alia Caldari Perkone	Posted - 2008.12.14 11:22:00 - [32] i like the moa, the raven, the scorp, the kestrel, the heron and the merlin hulls. the classic graphics gila has to be my favorite hull in the game. (green camo ftw) /dont throw things at me please //i really do like them
BiggestT Caldari Resurrection Skunk-Works	Posted - 2008.12.14 11:54:00 - [33] If you think that my rokh is ugly and the domi, tempest, archon etc belong to the "aesthetic races" then you have problems. EVE history t2 precisions
Vele Nori Amarr Dakinii	Posted - 2008.12.14 12:16:00 - [34] Edited by: Vele Nori on 14/12/2008 12:16:02 They have betrayed aesthetics for functionality. However I really like the Falcon, color texture and form, and sometimes don't want to leave it. Ravens are ok looking and I got used to the crow and merlin hulls. But anything with caracal/moa hull and all the drakes deserve to be put out of their misery as soon as you see them
Hyveres Caldari	Posted - 2008.12.14 12:50:00 - [35] How can one not love the nighthawk. It looks positivly EVIL :) "Subtlety is a thing for philosophy, not combat. If you're going to kill someone, you might as well kill them a whole lot." - Vulcan Raven, The Last Days Of Foxhound
inVictu5 Caldari Universal-Corp Nexus-Alliance	Posted - 2008.12.14 13:20:00 - [36] theyre should be ship skins "designs/paint" that u can mod a ship with 4 ISK... And the stations of the Caldari look like dead birds. The models for the ships arnt bad, its just the textures and windows.
Lyvanna Kitaen Minmatar Noonday Sun Corp	Posted - 2008.12.14 13:32:00 - [37] Originally by: Hyveres How can one not love the nighthawk. It looks positivly EVIL :) It's a big black box of death.

Rawr Cristina Caldari Naqam Exalted.	Posted - 2008.12.14 15:02:00 - [39] Nighthawk is sexiest ship in the game and you know it - Infectious -
Stitcher Caldari Duty.	Posted - 2008.12.14 15:38:00 - [40] different people, different aesthetics. Personally, I love the Caldari style. Reminds me of ships like the Sulaco, the Pillar of Autumn, the Nebulon-B, the Daedelus BC-304 or the Roger Young. See also the ships of the Alliance from Firefly. Seems to me like Caldari-style ship designs are pretty popular. - Captain Verin "Stitcher" Tarn-Hakatain.
Naibasak	Posted - 2008.12.14 15:51:00 - [41] The reason for their ships unique appearance is becouse of caldari shipyard security. Caldari ship building is so secret, no member of the design teem, for any one ship, knows what anyone else on that teem is doing.
Karrade Krise Galatic P0RN Starz	Posted - 2008.12.14 16:39:00 - [42] Edited by: Karrade Krise on 14/12/2008 16:40:58 so many fugly ships. I don't know where to start. Caldari do have some really nice looking ships though. Zee ROCK, Kestral, Pheonix...rest are ok or fugly. Best looking ship ingame to me is the Mega :D Voluntold, New Webcomic
Kweel Nakashyn Minmatar Brutor tribe	Posted - 2008.12.14 17:48:00 - [43] Caldari Ugly Galente Elegant Amarr scholar Minmatar Yarr Fetchez la vache !
Davina Braben	Posted - 2008.12.14 17:54:00 - [44] Y'know, even the Moa looks pretty good now, especially in Kaalakiota colours.
Tippia Caldari Raddick Explorations BlackWater.	Posted - 2008.12.14 17:58:00 - [45] My Lachesis was fitted with the following: 1x Spoiler 1x Air Scoop 1x Go-faster-red Paintjob. It is therefore superior to all Caldari ships. No sig for me, thankyouverymuch.
Rilwar BlackStar Industrial	Posted - 2008.12.14 18:03:00 - [46] Edited by: Rilwar on 14/12/2008 18:05:27 Edited by: Rilwar on 14/12/2008 18:04:19 Caldari ships look like real spaceships. Amarr are a close 2nd Gallente look like melted plastic. Minmatar is what MacGyver flys. Originally by: Tippia My Lachesis was fitted with the following: 1x Spoiler 1x Air Scoop 1x Go-faster-red Paintjob. I put fake chrome plastic Wal-Mart spinner rims on my Buzzard. It shaved .4 off my align time. ---O-H--S-H-*-T---
Redd Sectoray Grand Neurotic Usurping Retaliation Force	Posted - 2008.12.14 20:23:00 - [47] I used to agree with you on Caldari ships and stations looking ugly. That was before I set eyes on the Premium version of EVE Online. Now I absolutely love their looks.
Myung Chul Gallente Talocan Technologies	Posted - 2008.12.14 22:08:00 - [48] Edited by: Myung Chul on 14/12/2008 22:08:42 Caldari are sexy ships, there like the only race where all there frigates and destroyers look like they can dog fight hehe I <3 the Harpy

MotherMoon Huang Yinglong	Posted - 2008.12.15 02:01:00 - [51] Originally by: Stitcher See also the ships of the Alliance from Firefly. Seems to me like Caldari-style ship designs are pretty popular. \\I love when the fleet warps in, we need better warping effects with the next graphics update. I always thought about that as a minmatar vs. caldari fight lol.
Tiger313 313th Squadron	Posted - 2008.12.15 02:33:00 - [52] Originally by: Vaal Erit /emote takes off shirt and starts dancing on the bar. Yeeehaw, welcome to the Caldari Ugly. /emote slips Vaal Erit another tenner. Whoop! There are Caldari ships that look like shyte really, but there's some that look ace too. But in my opinion that goes for every race.
General Ric EXPLORATIS	Posted - 2008.12.15 06:36:00 - [53] Originally by: Karille The Caldari favor function over form. That argument might hold some merit if the Caldari ships were actually better (or more "functional") than any other race... Generally speaking Caldari ships have slightly better shield systems and typically in exchange for other trade offs, such as speed and armor. I fully realize that Caldari ships can't really be better than other race ships for balancing reasons. However, using an excuse like "they were designed to be functional while ignoring aesthetics" is somewhat meaningless when other races are clearly capable of achieving both. If anything I would expect Amarr ships to be ugly as hell with their emphasis on armor tanking - even if you operate under the assumption that they would look pretty coming out of the shipyard, they definitely wouldn't stay that way for very long. Anyways, I don't think most Caldari ships are necessarily what I would call ugly. However, I believe you would be hard pressed to find someone that doesn't think at least 1 Caldari ship got hit repeatedly with the ugly stick during its design phase. Probably the biggest problem with Caldari ships, in my opinion, is the lack of symmetry and seemingly pointless way in which some of the ships were assembled. Take the Moa for example - from both a functional and aesthetic standpoint, it really makes very little sense to have that thin arm and giant panel sticking off the side. Aesthetically, it looks like a mad scientist welded it together for no apparent reason. Functionally, this design choice would provide an extremely vulnerable target in combat - once your shields are down, a single well placed shot could effectively sever any systems in the arm from the rest of the ship and cause severe structural damage that would need a little more than an armor repairer to fix.
Lyvanna Kitaen Minmatar Noonday Sun Corp	Posted - 2008.12.15 09:04:00 - [54] Originally by: Rawr Cristina Nighthawk is sexiest ship in the game and you know it Black paintjobs look good on Caldari ships. It can even make a Moa halfway sexy (see Onyx).
Squably Minmatar Republic Military School	Posted - 2008.12.15 10:09:00 - [55] Originally by: Ren Surkova the dominix is the best looking ship in the game Lol if you think cow asses are nice to look at, sure Signature removed. Please do not imply profanity in your signature. Navigator
Miss Anthropy Lies Inc	Posted - 2008.12.15 10:34:00 - [56] Originally by: Dyaven Female Achura, anyone? Problem?
Roku Kotaki Kotaki Enterprises	Posted - 2008.12.15 11:10:00 - [57] It's a craptastic ship if you are speaking function, but I think the Ferox is probably the best looking Caldari ship, aesthetic wise. Originally by: William Shakespeare A fool thinks himself to be wise, but a wise man knows himself to be a fool.
SirMoric Caldari State War Academy	Posted - 2008.12.15 11:43:00 - [58] The most beautiful ship in the game: The Caldari Navy Raven! The shape, the colour, the brutish look..... yeah, you all envy it, you just won't admit it! The sound of those cruises leaving the "tubes" combined with drones ripping through frigates and alike.... a hellish ship. And I can fly one, cause I'm Achura, ENVY ME!!!! MUHAHAHA!!!!
Tippia Caldari Raddick Explorations BlackWater.	Posted - 2008.12.15 11:57:00 - [59] Originally by: Miss Anthropy Originally by: Dyaven Female Achura, anyone? Problem? He's just jealous because he's one of those. Remember children, our low charisma isn't due to our looks (we know we're good looking) but due to the fact that we tend to look down on all you lowly plebs who can't live up to our standards. It's the Achura's burden. No sig for me, thankyouverymuch.

Ivena Amethyst	Posted - 2008.12.15 13:19:00 - [63] only thing I can say about some caldari looking like wtf is: it's common knowledge that all eve ships look like a dik in some way or other* (obvious example thorax is obvious), I'm just sorry for the dude who's di*k looks like a raven or like a moa for that matter gallente on the other hand... phobos any1? pink to -------- Is that an Itty V in your pocket or ar you just happy to see me?

J'Mkarr Soban Amarr Proxenetae Invicti	Posted - 2008.12.15 14:37:00 - [65] Originally by: Stitcher different people, different aesthetics. Personally, I love the Caldari style. Reminds me of ships like the Sulaco, the Pillar of Autumn, the Nebulon-B, the Daedelus BC-304 or the Roger Young. See also the ships of the Alliance from Firefly. Seems to me like Caldari-style ship designs are pretty popular. The Nebulon-B is so completely Gallente - just look at the front of it! Also, I'm glad to see the Sulaco is in X3. I must find the ship to add. -- These are my personal views and in no way represent the views of Proxenetae Invicti, which maintains a neutral stance stemming from the strong ethics demanded of its work.

Seems to me like Caldari-style ship designs are pretty popular. The Nebulon-B is so completely Gallente - just look at the front of it! Also, I'm glad to see the Sulaco is in X3. I must find the ship to add. Rubbish, the Nebulon is Amarr, just look at the irregular plates on the side and half finished design. Just like the Apoc. I must say I do like the Daedelus BC-304, that reminds me slightly of the BSG with wider landing bays. That design really looks like a carrier. -- There's a simple difference between kinky and perverted. Kinky is using a feather to get her in the mood. Perverted is using the whole chicken. All this has happened before and will happen again
Black Scorpio	Posted - 2008.12.15 15:26:00 - [67] I like the Caldari asymetrical design. Makes the ships look "edgy"
