eagle sabre titan

i know these subjects have been locked cuz they compare the three best ships in the game. & like many i believe they are equal. but thats not my point. my question is which one is better looking? they are not similar at that & i can say everyone agrees. so which one is better looking?
i think its the sabre

triangular sandwichs taste better than square ones

sabre looks the best, but this is gonna get locked anyway, we had 3 competitions for best looking ship....

IBT

i got in before the lock, im smart...
Eagle looks the nicest of you ask me.

Post Thu Sep 30, 2004 11:03 am

Looks are entirely in the eye of the beholder. Personally, I think the Eagle looks good, but not as good as my Hammerhead.

Post Thu Sep 30, 2004 11:06 am

Hammerhead does have the advantage over all the the three mentioned above as far as looks, IMHO.



Merc for hire...but only if you can afford it.

The Sabre looks the best. The Titan is just too chunky, and the Eagle is SUCH a clichéd design in scifi.

The Eagle just spoils the nice Hawk and Falcon design with those stupid leg things

To make an eagle look nice, you need to shoot off the middle wing turning it into a psuedo-falcon. You can do this by asking a friend or scraping your hull accross the smooth flat rocks of the omicron systems. (i guess a station will work too)

To make a titan look cool, you need to shoot off the bottom fin. With the fins on the wings, it's easier for this to be shot off then scraped off.

A sabre is ugly from the back and the front but looks cool from the sides. Shooting stuff off will cause loss of guns.

A hammerhead looks better when the top fin is shot off. Scrape it off, or have someone shoot it off.

Titan looks the best because no matter how much you change the other VHF's only the titan and the anubis have thrusters that are actually centered.

I lost the BOTTOM fin off my Hammerhead the other day. Looked rather comical, if a bit aggravating because I had to go all the way back to Detroit to get replacement guns for it. I carry spares now and I don't believe in dying to repair my ship.

I've also shot up Titans to the point where they lose ALL their fins - literally nothing left but the cockpit and engines. It's also lots of fun making Titans look like a Legionnaire.

Ergh, ANOTHER one of these???
My opinion is:
Eagle- need I say more?

NEVER lose a find that holds guns. The top fin of a hammerhead can be dropped though, this decreases the profile from the side.

Post Thu Sep 30, 2004 8:05 pm

I think any ship looks cool when it's bristling with level 10 weapons. But I think they all look cliched. What does a SPACEship need WINGs for??? Does anyone remember the Millenium Falcon? Now, if your ship was orb-shaped, your guns could cover 360 degrees easily. A big, flying turret. Speaking of which, anyone ever thought of modding a gatlin gun style laser cannon? THAT would be cool.

Sabre looks best, then Hammerhead. eagle looks to common and titan is just damn ugly

@ww2.jacob have you even took the effort to read the first post??? i dont think so

Since I fly from INSIDE my ship in cockpit view -- instead of trailing behind in water ski view -- I don't really care what it looks like to others.

i like the loo off the dragon the best...

but off these ships, they are all ugly... if you go down in level by their makers, i like the look off the dagger (border world) and then the legionaire... after that the hawk...

but hold my oppinion by the dragon...
