Ship Interiors

[NomadicHavoc]

I love CIGs art direction, but one thing that always ercks me a bit is the lack of ship interior color variation. Why oh why, in the name of Chris, are the walls often times the same color as the ceiling and floors? I mean…imagine living in a house with brown walls, ceiling, and floors. Wanna increase depression and disinterest in spending time at home with the family…if so, theres a hovel carved into a hillside I’d like to sell you.

I get that many of these ships are military ships that don’t need to have the ‘luxury’ of color…other than grey. But, then again, the Aegis Idris gets this mostly right with nice color variation. And I bet the reason they did this is because they realized that the ship seemed stale and disinteresting when playing a 40ish hour game absent of color in your virtual home. So, why doesn’t this translate to all ship interiors in SC?

IMHO, they just need to go through all ships with a walkable interior and change the color palette of the floors if the same as the other surfaces.

Thanks for letting me vent a bit. Gotta go and holler at those kids to get off my lawn.

I mostly ride Origin 400/600 and haven't noticed this but will check it out. for a ship that doesn't have this issue check out the 300 series, that Moon Roof makes whatever your flying through be it space, sky or land your ceiling colour scheme :-)

I agree completely and add that despite over a decade of trying, CIG still can’t get decent function density into their interiors. The wasted space that would never happen aboard a space ship is just ridiculous. They still have not fixed the 600i and the Meteor is perhaps the worst offender ever with the entire center of the ship devoted to storing a single rifle and pistol.

It’s like the hired out of Retards R Us.
