Eve ships are all fairly low poly-counts on purpose though (so the engine can have 500 of them around at a time).  I'm not sure why it always takes so long to get these things out of the modeler pipelines and into the game.

OFFICE POLITICS is my guess  :psyccp:

I have many screenshots from the art pannel. As soon as the presentation finishes, I'll put them up ^_^

Or I would if imgur wasn't dying...

Wahey, Photobucket has not died, so I'll use that for now, switch to imgur when it recovers.

Allow me to present: The Art Panel

(Vince will like this one)

Edited to make it Imgur.

These. How do we get these, and please tell me they won't be from more special edition crap or race-restricted.

All they said was "These are actually redesigned old costumes that we've had ready for a while and wanted to put into the game." No mention of how we get them.

Gotta say I like the Dominix rework. It's nothing too drastic, but to me it's a much more imposing silhouette. Leaner. Meaner.

The realisation that we will never be seeing a Cal/Min faction makes me weep.

Agreed, the game seems ripe for it. Aldrith mentioned Ammatar ships, and I wonder if their close association with the Caldari in Source wouldn't be a solid justification for the crossover.

That would be something new then. Ammatar ships are always of amarrian design in the current lore. Considering how they seem happy to modify it on marketing and gameplay whims though, I wouldn't be surprised to see that happen.

Ah, I admit that is an aspect of the lore that I am unfamiliar with, but it makes sense. Being Nefantar, but isolated from the Sebiestor who had much to do with the re-development of Minmatar astronautics after the rebellion, they would likely have used the ships available, Amarr.

Now I'm puzzled as to how the Nefantar/Ammatar/Caldari crossover would work, even with 'adjusted' lore. Anyway, just a passing thought.

It is a possibility. All we have in the lore is mostly located around the few bits about Ammatar Navy using imperial ships (either in lore or ingame with their own skins, and not to be confused with Nefantar republican skins on the minmatar side which use minmatar hulls), and the news pieces on the abaddon Yonis variant with a cheapened powergrid to make them more affordable (and well, low quality).

Also rather love the new arm augmentations. :D And Art had evidently mentioned in the last CSM that they wanted to give systems 'traffic volume indicators' of various types-- I suspect the ad concept is for that. I -really- hope they can pull it off. :D
