RE: Keep the old or convert to the new [BHG capittal ship design] - Sath - 07-22-2014
Plis no...The BHG caps are fine as it is, with the sole exception of Bullhead, since it is kinda heavy and not a good option over Thresher.
A big no from Core|

The only one who wants to change the ships is you Jinx and you keep making ugly models to replace them. Stop trying, don't jinx these models too. No!

They look a little too tacked on whilst also looking postmodern. I am not sure that it suits the BHG personally and I voted against the change.
Constructively, try less added on lighter bits. I am not sure how to phrase this. Perhaps pictures over Skype would be better?

This needs to be locked and stopped now. Lets not have a repeat of the Zoner cap thread.
Same repeat: factions weren't consulted prior.

They look great and they do feel like inspired from the BHG shipline but as stated before, round shapes should be maintained. The ones here look like Rheinland tried to copy the BHG caps but couldn't draw round shapes because they're not used to them.
Also, to the guys that like to be internet warriors and start attacking everyone with every thread: try to be more polite and civilized.

After reading the OP again, here are my thoughts.
(07-22-2014, 07:20 AM)Jinx Wrote: It is about the BHG capital ship line. While the Mako has been one of the ships ppl tend to like, designwise - and it certainly kind of embodies that many people associate with the BHG it has always been an outsider of the design line with much more darker tones and more rounded parts.
The Thresher is possibly one of the favourite designs for many - although not so clear if it is because it is just stick thin and can do its destroyer job so good - or cause the actual design is appreciated.
The Bullhead is a fairly bad model and not really a good design as a whole.
That could be fixed with a "redesign" added to the CURRENT Mako model, since as far as I'm concerned, it looks pretty good to me, showing the agressiveness that you'd expect from BHG caps.
Reasons given above why people like the Tresher so much .. probably its more that it handles the job of a destroyer well due to its size and shape. The model is pretty simple for anyone to fall in love with it.

That's fine, but as I wrote before, then the BHG caps will have little in common with the rest of the BHG/AP line of ships ( except for the Orca which you made Jinx )

Indeed, the Bullhead doesn't really look like what its role is, no argue with that.

A texture rework or adding some detail to the model would make the whole thing "advanced" imo.
(07-22-2014, 08:55 AM)Jinx Wrote: the mako is a good design, but it was a compromise back then because the bhg had complained about their first battleship being bugged (it did have a hitbox that was around 30% large than the osiris, its primary enemy back then - while having worse stats than the osiris, which made little sense, cause the osiris was a scoutship, while the mako was meant to be an assault ship )
Same as above, instead of trying to change the entire model,, tweaking the current shape maybe ?
Again, I am not someone whos opinion has any weight here, but the list you gace us atm Jinx , even though they are obviously more modern looking and detailed, don't really go well with the current BHG snub ships , unless you plan to rework all of those aswell , which I doubt. ^^
Edit: Just For People To See What I'm Saying !

Deffinitely yes
This shipline looks sick (in good manner) and yus yus yus you're right that Bullhead deserves a new skin

I don't see why the Bullhead is getting so much flak. The model is fine, it perfectly captures the traits of an aggressive battlecruiser, hence the name 'Bullhead' because Bullhead sharks are known to be so aggressive that they chance their targets onto land.

Lol, where are the other Core factions?
Not only do I lead Core|, but I served in BHG|Core and even went into BHG HC.
