    love the new models.
    the only thing that i kind of dislike is the way the "scales" on the ship open up forward. i guess the ships guts need to be cooled down a little more in fury. so i still love 'em.
    why are people hating on icarus? it looks great! it seems to be the sleakest of all the new designs.

    In a way I think the design decisions make a lot of sense outside of asthetics. WOHD is FX350 correct? One would assume that as the season progresses the setting moves closer to FX400(Pulse) than FX300(Pure).

    I must admit I did my judgement too quickly. Icaras looks odd, in my opinion.

    I still like the other ships, though.

    With this new round of screens, I can say I love most of the new ship designs. AG-S is still a big shaky for me but the screens only show the back of it so far so I will wait to see it.

    I agree that it has lost it's grace but Detonator is not going to be about tenderness

    I did agree on Icaras looking odd, but of course these are the Fury Detonator models..

    Check these:

    In my opinion, as far as I'm able to form it based on these shots, that looks friggin wicked!

    Well. That's it. For me, most new designs look like battle machines, rather than WipEout. Same goes for the zone-variants. I'm missing the sleek lines.

    There are some good "parts" nonetheless; Auricom for example has some nice design aspects I think. Overall, though, the ships look like made of plates not being glued together.
    agreed. too spikey and some just look odd.

    i was gonna question aerodynamics, but then thought of mirage esentially been a massive flying bug...so nevermind!!!!

    I do not understand what your fuss is about. They have been telling us they come with the new mode, Detonator. Of course they look like battle ships, because they are...

    actually you use the detonator ship in detonator mode, these are just new ship skins for regular races

    and this thread is about whether we like them or not. i simply do not. i'm not makiing a fuss. i would have preffered some different colour schemes instead of adding stuff to the shape of the ships...that is all. but alas, i'm not bothered about the skins, so me disliking them doesn't matter really. loads of people are hyped about them...which is cool.

    i'm looking forward to detonator mode and modesto heights myself.

    As far as I've understood it's the other way around. They come with the mode and can be used in regular racing..

    And thus I think this needs to be seen in perspective.. which it has been taken out of. Biasing opinion with glances and contextual murder is something I do not really like

    you probably missed the posts in an other thread in wich we said that there are 3 skins for each new model.
    So there are other color schemes to unlock.

    @ AnErare : here is the only detonator ship
    http://www.flickr.com/photos/3689538...7619497443944/

    others are new regular ships
    and in zone battle they got added glowing part, but still are the same models.

    Seriously!! That's great to know!
    (I guess i missed that info)
    Where was this info confirmed?
    I know it was mentioned as a good thing to have just never knew that was actually the case.

    Thx

    on the ship selection screen, each vertical part is a team.
    on the upper side the new fury ships, on the lower the old HD ships.
    there are 7 cells, so 3 skins per model + the chrome one.

    as you say: 3 skins for each new model

    which i'm not a fan of, the new models are too far from what i persnally recognise as an ag craft in the wipeout universe, as someone else mentioned, the plates that look like they're not attatched to the ship properly and random spikey bits and what-not.

    but as i said, it's all good.

    new tracks, new game modes, new skins...everyone's got something to look forward to.

    some of these crafts have a greatly changed apperance compared to HD. but as far as i could tell on first impressions, the essence of each team is maintained (although slightly sceptical to the eg-x colourscheme). i would definitely say that some of the ships now look slightly more battle oriented than they did before.
    my general opinion so far:

    -harimau.
    -auricom
    -assegai
    -mirage
    -goteki
    -eg-x
    -feisar
    -triakis (and finally no camo )
    :-
    -icaras
    -ag-5y5
    undicided:
    -piranha
    -qirex

    this is not a comparison made against the original teams, but rather if i like the new design or not.

    New Skin will camouflage quite well into the scenery quite well. Time to eliminate

    same here! only difference is in piranha that after the new shots grows in me and i like it now

    -qirex: is good but spot the same issue of the old model, from certain angle looks sweet, from the side view looks fat ankward and unaestethic

    -icaras: however i consider this new design so much better than the regular pulse one fury icaras > old pulse icaras , i this shot i've higlight the only thing i really don't like much http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/3771/...2a19649a1o.jpg

    ag-sys remains the only without any hopes...why since they have in mind to do a faster ship than the ond model didn't have used a model similar to the iper-sleek one from wip3out, i don't know...

    anyway here i have prepared some modified shots with highlight and comments on some questionable things http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/5900/...41617jpgco.jpg

    i can well believe it! so much wrong blue tone http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/7569/...d88bd6cbco.jpg http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/1140/...44b4262bco.jpg some comparison with the old blue tone

    i haven't understand yet if that blue pastel tone is supposed to be a big lunar park adversiting with the teddy bear or is actually the tone of team colours, in this case it's clearly wrong...

    Ah right then, I've misunderstood, I take it you are one of the lucky ones who already got a preview and has sorted it all out.

    It does make sense though. What I think I needed to say was that they come with Eliminator mode. But that is just a different name to label what I was saying.
