I vote we make a standardised rating system, not that 'nice', 'okay' & 'cool' aren't good, but it would help comprehension. :nervous:

Ugly? The Orion.

The Orion is a beauty.

Re: Stupid or "Stereotypically" Ugly Ships, Retail or Otherwise
wow after 5 years weve still got nub threads like this

I guess because many of the n00bs here have not played FS2 for a long time and/or have not had a chance to voice their opinions on things like this. This thread if for n00bs, by n00bs. Let's just let them have their fun.

And I think the Collossus resembled a baseball bat/shotgun too much. :nervous:
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

Re: Stupid or "Stereotypically" Ugly Ships, Retail or Otherwise
Hecate is one of the ugliest in my opinion-- worse by far than the Orion. Rating: 2 Zods. About the in-nebula thing: you can put a bridal dress on a pig, but it's still not going to be a fun honeymoon.

Edit: I find your spelling of Boanerges quite comical. And who's Raa?

Re: Stupid or "Stereotypically" Ugly Ships, Retail or Otherwise
Taristin, Goob changed it for him (though he didn't ask). I was really weirded out and confused by that. The Hecate reminded me of something from Robotech or something (those two beam cannons on the front look like something). And yeah, the Hecate looks very ugly. About one year ago I would have spelt Boanerges 'Bonenerjes'.

Re: Stupid or "Stereotypically" Ugly Ships, Retail or Otherwise
Hecate is a beauty once you have the HTL version that is, and the Boanerges is know in some places as the "Boaner" even though it sucks.

Re: Stupid or "Stereotypically" Ugly Ships, Retail or Otherwise
The Boanerges has "WTF?" written all over it for me. Pronounciation, shape of bomber, name....


I like the Hecate though. With reflective maps it really doesn't look half-bad.

Now the Ravana.... it looks cool, but I have to ask: what is with it's discombobulated shape? It looks twisted to the side, almost, if you look at it from behind (*cough* Bosch Monologue 4 *cough*)

Actually, I like the Ravana. I love the way the tubes change color when you change the angle.

 
Re: Stupid or "Stereotypically" Ugly Ships, Retail or Otherwise
I like the Ravana too, just saying it looks bizarre, even by Shivan standards.
