I'm not a trekkie, but looking at those ships made me kinda sad when I compared them to most Eve ships. I'm stuck with a domi for quite a while and... well it's ugly as hell. And it's not even Minmatar. If Amarr didn't blow I'd be piloting them for sure, cause at least they look decent.

I just don't like the asymmetric Caldari ships. I mean, it's one thing to make a ship asymetric, it's quite another to make it as grotesque looking as a Raven.
At least if they make these ships fugly, they could make them look fugly for a damned reason.
The Domi isn't that bad, it'd look pretty nice if it were shorter and a little longer. -------------------------------------------------------- Working towards my own personal Dreadnought, one ISK at a time. |

My alt's Sigil looks more like a combat ship than the Domi. I guess it's supposed to be the Vexor's big bro but ugh... It just looks so much worse.

Heh... eve has it's ugly ships and it's pretty ships. Personally, I'm not very impressed with the ones in that link.
yes, the moa, the griffen, the scorp, the raven, the bantam (see the patern?) are all as hideous as the most hideous sci-fi abortion ever envisioned. But there are quite a few attractive designs, imo:
Naglefar, Rifter, Huricane, Maelstrom, most amarr cruisers, punisher, executioner, megathron, kestrel, caracal, etc.... all pretty decent looking. :) Although, personally I can't stand any of the wildly asymetrical designs that CCP used to love so much. I just imagine all these tempest flying in circles all the time cause of has an enging in the middle, on the bottom, but not on the top.

But I will admit that there are some ships that I think are real sexy that a do not fly simply cause I dont want to take the time to train for them.
IE- Abaddon, Malestrom, HURRICANE!!!, Drake, Deimos, etc ------------------------------------------------------------------

The Megathron is a sexy beast. The Dominix however, could do with re-modelling. I think it would be nice to see something more angular, as it's supposed to date back to the time when the Gallente and Caldari were closer. ----------

Well, I fly the Domi and I almost always have my view zoomed out to avoid looking at the ship. It IS fugly.
Other ships look beautiful (Rax or Geddon anyone?), some ships look cool (Mega Vexor or Hyp), some look mean (Brutix or Apoc).
Overall, Caldari are uglier than what is left in the toilet after a bad night of drinking... most Minnie ships look like you built a model at home, then fell on it after a night of drinking.
It's CCP... I guess their art department is drunk most of the time.
Just be glad it's not a FPS or a space sim where you NEED to be zoomed in on you ship most of the time

It'd be ultra hot if you had an option of two skins to pick from for each ship. That way you can get the best ship for your skills and get the one that you like to look at best.

My ships are hot AND sexy...
I dont really agree with the original post though.
Eve is nice because there is something in there for everyone. If they made all ships symetrical, straight and beautiful id feel really awkward. Really no ships would look like they meant business if they were all slickriders. "Ugly" ships have their character too.
Im sure everyone can list a few ships they like the look of and thats the way it should be.

Love the look of the Armageddon, with 5 shoulder mounted guns, and probably the most sensible engine configuration on many ships (Thorax anyone?) There's a massive plate on the underside that looks like a housing for the drone bay
Punisher and Retribution look like bulldogs to me though, sleek at first, but porc'd out with guns, and they look pretty gnarly. Probably the least elegant ship I've seen would have to be the typhoon....looks like Oscar The Grouch's Space-faring Garbage Can

As another poster said ugly ships have their place. Unfortunatly some ships just look stupid. I hope with rev 3 they remodal as well as reskin some ships.
Ships like Rokh, Ferox, and drake are ugly but they look mean and in their own way cool. The moa/eagles is just stupid and goes against the of the utilitarian look of caldari ship design (it doesnt look like you'd expect a gunship to look like).
I wouldn't mind the caracal bulking up so it could actually be large enough to lanch heavy missiles. I like the wyvern concept for the shape, but it doesn't look quite right in game IMO. --------------------------------- There's a simple solution to every problem. It is always invariably wrong |

You know, I don't wish to knock the game too hard, but i must stress how right the thread starter is. Most of the ships in Eve are hideously ugly, and painful to look at. It stopped me from playing this game for years. I only gave it a try when a friend happened to show me some of the Amarr ship designs. Asymmetry only goes so far.. In Eve, it goes TOO far. |

The Rokh, Mega, Abaddon, and the Scorp look like great, but yes ships like the Domi, Tempest(especially that heap of newly coughed up hairball), and the Raven need to be remodeled. im not sure about the Hyperion yet, it looks badass, like a floating city with guns yet its not very pretty to look at; and i tihnk the guns would have looked cooler if they put them somewhere else, so that if u have a nos or something on there instead of 8 guns it didnt look like u got in a hit and run accident and one broke off so u left it behind.

Hmm the asymmetry is rather extreme, however it would balance out fine if it was shown to have a practical purpose. Shield systems, Weapon racks, missile bays, Electronic Warfare subsystems. Practicality. Asymmetry serves no purpose in an atmosphere, however in space it serves as optimal component placement.
eg - Drone bays - ever noticed the Vexors' Drone bays? <3 teh Vexor

The asymmetry of most Caldari ships wouldn't bother me so much if the thrusters were placed correctly given their apparent center of mass. However, that is not the case.
Oh, and the moa is the fugliest ship in the game, bar none. -Wrayeth n00b Extraordinaire

I actually like the idea of the Typhoon, its like a sort of light escort carrier. It could use a total reskin though - the "new" Minmatar look could do wonders on that concept.

Edited by: X99 Z990 on 25/06/2007 04:25:47 I think the moa is alright looking really. :[
Ive grown to like it somewhat, looks chunky with some sort of thruster built in there. Looks a little like a bird also which is what i think its supposed to be like.
Eagle looks pretty good i think also.
And raven i think is a great looking battleship, up to the little command deck i dont see why people let it gnaw away at them thinking the wings have to be symetrical.
Again tempest is one of the most characteristic ships in eve i would never forgive them if they changed it. I think it is the ship that looks the most like a pirate ship in eve. Sails and all.
- Edit - The graphics update will probably cover any issue i have with ship looks right now though.

Because obviously, aerodynamics are so important in space.
I honestly like the more 'industrial' feel of many of the EVE ships. (Granted, I've flown either Minmatar or Caldari my entire EVE career, only dabbling in the other two races every so often)
I guess I would say these alot of the ships are.. err.. 'realistic' to an extent? (in as far as this could ever be 'realistic') If I was going to spend $100 million worth of resources on a ship, I'd put every penny into making sure it kept me alive instead of looking sleek and cool.

I don't mind the assymetric looks of most of the ships although prefer the Amarr and later Minmatar ships. Even the Typhoon and Osprey look acceptable - the Osprey is an an mining platform/mobile repair dock and I can accept it looking clunky.
The one ship I truly find intolerable is the exequeror. Come on, not only is it assymetric, not only does it vary between an nasty snot green colour and a rusty gold depending on the lighting, but it looks like someone half melted it then sat on it.
This would be a useful ship - nice cargo hold, hislots. A real utility ship. With one of these a new player could slavage, mine, run lvl 2 comabt and courier missions all with one ship. It would also make a great after mission looter. But frankly hell will freeze over before I am seen in public flying this squashed frog of a ship.

I have to say that I actually like the appearance of the Domi ... /me waits for astonished gasps
Yes, I know it looks like a whale, but I like whales.
Yes, it's not streamlined by any stretch of the imagination, but in space, who cares? Certainly not the Borg ;-)
It's symmetrical, which science tells us is important in deciding who has an attractive face, and who doesn't.
Finally, while opponents are wiping tears of laughter from thier eyes, I can open 1.5 billion isk of 'fugly' deadspace whoopass on them ;-)

Originally by: Jarah Tatarin Nothing beats the Rupture in ugliness, seriously it looks like a hybrid between crap, a chicken and a war axe. It got two freaking fronts!
Thats why they call it a rupture...they just forgot the preceeding word..."anal" But cmon, just like the other mimitar flying terds (minus the rifter) the ships have character. Id be willing to bet that you still wouldnt trade your tech 1 rupture for any other tech 1 cruiser.

I actually quite like the EvE ships, sure it has a few uglies, but imho the better looking ships out pace the ugly ones... Caldari ships may be asymetrical(Sp?) but some of them are pretty sweet...
Caldari...Scorpian is a nice looking ship, it looks like it does what its bonus' state, massive amounts of antennas to support E-War. Raven is ugly no doubt. I also quite like capital ships of the State beautful ships.
Gallente... well this is biased since I'm caldari but EVERY FREAKING GALLENTE SHIP IS UGLY, its mainly not about the shape of them but the color... I mean bloody hell those ships need a better color scheme, and overal there designs look like something that came out of my behind...
Minmatar... Well I actually quite like these, the Color may look like crud but it fits them, and the overal designs on most of there ships look nice, the Solar sails look freaking cool and there new ships are especially awesome.
Amarr... What can I say the Amarr have the best looking ships in the game, best color scheme and greatest designs, the Augoror and Maller and Apoc. are the worst looking ships and those are still good looking enough to fly.
Other... ok you got me those mining barges look fugly bar the Procurer, if they could remove that freaking door like thing on the front the might actually look cool but, gods I refused to fly a Retriever for the longest time cause I hated how it looked. The faction ships in EVE are also sweet looking, except the nightmare, that thing is just messed up.

Thanks stork...i like the way the big ship goes down at the end. Doesn't just blow up in one massive explosion but kind of dies alot of little deaths inside with loads of smaller explsions and wat not...awesome realism. - Michael Schumacher won many a formula one race.

Remember the vehicles in them Mad Max movies? Caldari engineers are rough addicts for ship altering and add ons, and the Gals are forever re-doing the paintwork on theirs. . Amarr are different, they think ahead. Grab a Prophecy today, now theres a real bird of prey.
That Nexus vid is where CCP belongs, Hollywood stylee, I hope CCP are still into innovating or some sharp company will soon be grabbing their loayal players rather quickly, then eve will dive for the toilet like all the other stagnant games in our glorious online history.

I agree on the minmatar ships. When you fly those, think more Aliens, Chronicles of Rid****, and many other b-rated scifi. The ships just generally look mean and all buisness. No limpwristed clean lines and gracefull curves, you dont need that crap in space. So in that sense, I like that the ships I fly have big blisters and blocky structures protruding out of them. I also like rust color!

I'd be really happy if the ships in Eve looked like those in Elite.
Yes - they were just polygons, but they looked functional. Thin, dagger-like wedges for the combat ships; fat cones for the industrials; boxes for the shuttles.
They were symmetrical, had engines on one end only, and the surface area contained a large volume.
Elite-style ships with up-to-date textures and a few guns or antennae, maybe with a few curves or other idiosyncracies to distinguish between the races... mmmm...

I personally like the utilitarian and "ugly" models of the Minmatar and Caldari ships, especially Minmatar. The look like warships should, built to kill, with looks having no importance, and thus achieving a mean killer look.
.... although the Caracal and Moa are still ugly.
The Amarr ships are quite okay, it suits their background. Golden imperial ships, glorious etc.
The Gallente ships are sadly, just ugly. Most of them look like digested turds.

The Megathron is the reason i did almost choose Gallente when i started, the image of that beauty, spitting plasma left and right, wow. The Thorax looks awesome for a smaller combat ship (aside from the asymetry and the weird thruster layout that is), but my absolute favorite has to be the Prophecy, a true Warbird. I just wish it would be slightly sleeker and nimbler, then it would be perfect.
Originally by: Admiral Annihilation :O That video is amazing, the space battle at the end is awesome
The style reminds me a lot of the BSG combat scenes, the swift camera moves, the relative silence, the perspectives...
Originally by: Shandling If I was going to spend $100 million worth of resources on a ship, I'd put every penny into making sure it kept me alive instead of looking sleek and cool.
Marcel Dassault once said: "For an airplane to fly well, it must look good." And i think that goes for starships too
Anyway, for pure efficiency, nothing beats Perry Rhodan style spherical designs.

one of the reasons i never became a trekkie despite being a nerd in general was because trek ships look like they're conceptual spaceships from the 50s designed by elves (and also because the story sucks).
some eve ships look ugly though, i must admit. but eve ships > trek overall, imo.

As some have already posted, the shape of the ship doesn't matter too much wrt use as aerodynamics aren't a factor. To the post regarding position of thrusters to the mass of the ship, you can take realism a little too far :)
As for the ship designs everyone is going to have faves. Personally the Thorax and Mega are what made me choose gallente for my alt but imo the sheer 'landrover' aspect to all matari ships, (Mael and 'cane excepted) just sums up the racial attitude to combat. I'm sure someones sig contains the quote 'Flying Matari is like going down a staircase on an office chair firing an Uzi'. Can't recall if it's word perfect but it captures the ideal! What I mean about the 'landrover' aspect is that it's not the most sleek, all mod cons machine but you can repair it in the field with a minimal amount of tools. Built for a purpose, not for comfort :)
Even if you love the trek ships though, (I really don't like them), just how much fun would a trek MMORPG be? Seriously, namby pamby federation bound by all those rules? Even the other races are boring, about the only ones that appeal to me are the Maquis! ______________________________ A closed mouth inserts no foot

Dominix is definitely butt-ugly.. Spacewhale on wheels.. were you people high? And Execuror?? Someone squished a frog...
As for cool looking things, Machariel looks damn right uber, too bad its 4 times the size of other BS.
Megathron is ok, only if the eggsack in the middle was removed somehow.
Gallente in all look ok, some of the most intimidating ships are gallente. They just gotta loose the murky-swamp color theme, clean it up and we are in business.
Caldari probably has only a few cool looking ships beside the cap ships. Scorpion, Rokh, Kestrel, Merlin and Heron (to some extent). Raven and Moa are just lego blocks assembled in a horribly wrong fashion.
Most Minmatar look like scrapheaps oh epic proportions. Some of them look very cool, except for the rust color scheme, grafix revamp will fix that I suppose. Some don't look very sturdy, like the Tempest and Bellicose.
Most Amarr look really cool, but I personally dislike the gold color, don't like gold at all. Blood raider colors are really nice though.
So yea, fix the Domi FFS.. and make my Machariel smaller I can fit 3 ravens in it.

I'm not a trekkie, but looking at those ships made me kinda sad when I compared them to most Eve ships. I'm stuck with a domi for quite a while and... well it's ugly as hell. And it's not even Minmatar. If Amarr didn't blow I'd be piloting them for sure, cause at least they look decent.
Its not Startrek, infact Startrek is very old sci-fi movie when people prolly thought that each ship should be clean and perfectly shaped like a sports car.
Moa 4tw.
gotta agree there. if you think about it... in reality battleships are more likely to be shaped like the domi or something... its alot more efficient, you don't risk having a single explosion in midships breaking you in half, you have more surface area to spread sensors and weapons and whatnot around, your engines and different compartments can all be centralized AND heavily armored very easily... that big blocky design is altogether a more practical, if not prettier, design philosophy.
hence why im starting to actually like the domi more and more in terms of looks (already love it in terms of gameplay)... but also on the list are the rokh, thorax, drake, myrm and executioner. practical for the most part designs... not the wild completly unrealistic, never going to be created in reality crap that star trek tends to come up with.

Trek ships are horrible. They lack agressiveness and style of design.
I am a fan of the ships in EvE, because the designed has included asymmetrical ship designs, that work really well, like the Tempest, Scorpian and Zealot/Omen.
Compare that 'USS Titan' or whatever design to the Erebus or Avatar, there is no comparison to the detail and thought gone into them, EvE designs are for the win!
Star Trek ship designs remind me of sports cars, with aerodynamic styles, I dont want that...I want my ships to look worn, battered...and above all aggressive.

Originally by: Aerin Cloudfayr Hmm the asymmetry is rather extreme, however it would balance out fine if it was shown to have a practical purpose. Shield systems, Weapon racks, missile bays, Electronic Warfare subsystems. Practicality. Asymmetry serves no purpose in an atmosphere, however in space it serves as optimal component placement.
Er, I'm afraid it doesn't work that way. Symmetry in space is very significant. Especially regarding thrusters and centre of mass. Even minute differences, in fact, are very significant, once we're talking about high speeds. Assmyetric ship accelerating from 0 to 4km/s in two seconds becomes a wreck.
Not to mention that gravitational pull will do very bad things to your assymetrical design. A assymetrical plane will suffer from the same things as an assymetrical spaceship (like, spinning out of control for one) - gravity doesn't require atmosphere, you know?
BTW, the ships I like best are the Rifter, the Wolf, the Hurricane. Stabber looks just redicilous and the Rupture is a flying Turd. The Maelstorm looks very nice, too.

Incorrect about gravity. Drop two spheres of different mass from the same height and they hit the ground at the same time. So, in space without an atmosphere for air resistance, a ship that has 99% of its mass on one side, and 1% on its other side will not suddenly flip onto its heavy side and plunge into a gravity well.
Have you seen pics of the international space station? If the way you think about gravity is true, most satellites would disintegrate. ________________________________________ <("<) <('')> (>")>

As you can see the bigger thrusters are usually on the bigger part thus its balanced. Meaning, no need for symmetry. Moreover, acutally, if you go into the real world, EVE universe was discovered thru the natural wormhole, and who said that each galaxy has same physical values for instance? Maybe they are close, but they can still differ. ---

Admittedly when I first started playing the game I trained straight for a thorax, just because I like the way it look. Gallente definatley have the edge when it comes to asthetics, the Thorax, Megathron, Nyx are all sexy looking ships. The only real blot on them is the Domi, which looks like a big green turd.
....and Caldari are just fugly yes. ___________________

Generally agree, the thing is though, Starfleet ships are not warships! Nearly all the ships we know of are some kind of multipurpose explorer, being non-agressive is intentional, thats simply Starfleets design philosophy. The first real combat starship they've built though, the Defiant, writes agressive with a capital A... (ever seen the Defiant project logo? "ASSIMILATE THIS!") Another ship many like is the Akira, and coincidently thats the other Starfleet designed warship. Besides, those Klingon birds look agressive enuff for me
Back to EVE, you'll NEVER see me in one of those junkyard contraptions the Minnies call ships...!

How about the babylon 5 ships. The ones from the humans. This could be an awesome ship.. well, it would be very realistic..
The kind of realistic that Nasa would take this ship to make it its next spaceship... but only in space... not going on earth has if you look at the design, its made to fly in space.
and yes, lots of ship in EVE sucks, there ugly. Also, if the ships from EVE were real, they wouldnt much mobility in space.

A matter of taste.
Ammar - they have military, utylitary, full-metal-jacket ships but they are still good looking. Caldari - they like sharp angles and Lego(tm) Gallente - they have really good looking ships, for sure the prettiest in the game. Minmatar -
Some races are able to build good-looking ships, other prefer to make them useful more than pretty. For me that's ok.

Rokh.. mmm! Geddon.. mmm! Maelstrom.. mmmmmm! (personal choice too d;) 'Baddon looks like a tasty chick that's gotten a bit tubby. Still hot but just a little fat in the back of your mind..
Amarr frigs and battle/cruisers in general I think are pretty secks.
Nidhoggur and chimera I like too. The revelation dread or whatever looks amazing when shooting its lasers. The Naglfar is pretty horn too.
Thanatos looks like a giant pie foil. Moros looks like a hippo with zits that cross-bred with a poo as well.
Hurricane is pretty tasty.. can see why they used it for rev2.

Edited by: Ecky X on 28/06/2007 04:20:14 My opinions:
Caldari: Ferox is a bit odd looking, but not bad. Raven is ugly. Moa is ugly. Caracal looks frail (and is), but it adds variety. Gunboats look nice.
Gallente: I originally liked the Megathron a lot, but not so much anymore. Dominix is "meh". Don't much care for the bubbly design, but EVE has something for everyone.
Minmatar: Rupture and Tempest scream "pirate"... kinda Black-Pearl-ish. Rifter and T2 variants are nice. Maelstrom is meh. Hurricane is nice looking but does not look like anything Minmatar, other than the lack of paint.... nor does it fly like a Minmatar ship. Stabber is a bit odd, but not ugly. Typhoon could use work, but I like the overall idea.
Amarr: Harbinger is meh. Mostly boring ships, but they all have symmetry. -----

Trek ships
I'm not a trekkie, but looking at those ships made me kinda sad when I compared them to most Eve ships. I'm stuck with a domi for quite a while and... well it's ugly as hell. And it's not even Minmatar. If Amarr didn't blow I'd be piloting them for sure, cause at least they look decent.
I dont think most minnie ships look ugly at all. I have a problem with the Typhoon and I dont really like the look of Cyclone/Sleipnir, but other than that, I think the ships look great to be honest.
Like they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Some people see no beauty in anything that isnt "classic" beauty, others can see beauty in a car wash. ---
