The One Ship Manufactuer you just can't stand

[Black Sunder]

What is that one manufacturer for one reason or another just rubs you the wrong way?

And post why you picked what you did.

Origin for me. Luxury has no place in this universe of Vanduul threats. That money should go to new weapons, new ways exploit resources and to broaden our horizons. Origin would make you lazy.

 

[Wolfy]

Any of those filthy Xenos or xeno colaborating manufacturers.

I'm just going to put this link here before all the people turn up asking where the brand they hate is in the poll:

Drake. Bunch of chav scumbags :D

Drake. Bunch of chav scumbags :smile:

HOW DARE YOU! I'll have you know I am an upstanding citizen who just prefers that brand for its no-nonsense design and industrial look.

On the subject of the poll - Anvil. Bunch of good-for-nothings with ugly ships and cabins filled with screens to try and hide it. Their only saving grace is the Carrack.

 

[Slo]

RSI, 'cuz they are ugly and stupid looking.

 

[SullyQuindarius]

Alien ships, both Aopoa and Esperia. Don't really have any I'm a big fan of, they're cool designs but nothing I'd wanna own personally.

 

[Thugari]

Esperia, they are getting rich off the backs of alien slave engineers.

Origin is like Apple, overpriced and underperforming. They sell the name but deliver mediocre ships thatt other manufacturers just seem to make better. Of late though the 600i seems to be faring much better. If I were to compare small ships of around $100 value the 100i is bad. The latest Anvil offering the Arrow impressed me. She is a real beauty and worth the $65 I spent. Changed the top turret out for a S3 omnisky and paired it with the broadswords and I completed the Vaandul swarm with no issue twice. (To be fair though the Vaandul swarm I did earlier seemed way way harder and longer

I'm going with Origin. I loved their aggressive angular design of luxury oriented ships. The 890 jump looked like a proper star destroyer! One thing I wanted to own badly! But with their design changing to thoroughly melted overstyled generic wax sculptures, I just find it boring and unimaginative.
The above example of them being like Apple is spot on. The new 300i design in the "notch" of spaceships. Useless, bad lazy design around a n otherwise nonexistent problem.
I just hope the other manufacturers won't start copying them lol

 

[Raither]

I had to go with "other" because there is not a company that grinds my gears... yet.

 

[Deroth]

MISC, their ship appearance and layouts all seem convoluted and inefficient to me.

 

[Phil]

Consolidated, just because they only have the mustang and pioneer I would like to see some other ships I think they could bring some really cool concepts to the table.

 

[Phelan13]

Consolidated Outland never like the visual look of the ships

Consolidated Outland never like the visual look of the ships

Thats kind of the problem they have only 1 ship and 6 variants, I think for a starter ship the mustang is fine and well the pioneer is just a floating platform I would like to see something else lol.

Other!!!! The poor ship can't do anything about who build it.

MISC is rendered heretical by their willingness to I corporate Xi'an tech into an otherwise perfectly human ship.

 

[Originman]

MISC uses alien tech but still hasn't learned that pilots need to see where they are flying.

Everyone who picked Origin is just jealous.

 

[Spacer-Steve]

Aopoa. Those dirty, nasty Xi'an think all those fancy-dancy fins can make up for their round, turtle-looking noggins. Everyone knows they're just after our Reality TV! Viva Kardashian!!
