I mthink they went overboard on making aliens look more realistic. I mean I know that aliens won't look humanoid, but still I like to see more features than just a rock. The Meklar look sweeeeet.

At the official MOO3 website, there is also a video animation of the trilarian. It is amazing! Check it out!

It seems to be that my favorite race in MOO2, the Trilarians, look even cooler this time...

I didn't like the gray color of the humans so much, also I still think the meklars are too colorful.

The other races (species, not sure) are looking great and that trilarian video is awesome.

The pictures look great, my only concern is that the humans are going to look terible and so are there ships, the others races look great though.

One point that was brought up elsewhere was that alien races will probably have their own ideas of which color schemes look good, and may well think that human notions of same are appalling. Given the choice between pure marketing value and a realistic depiction, the art department chose the latter.

Thus, not every race is going to appeal to human eyes...nor need they.

Good job on the menu interface's; easy to read lots of info.

Are we going to be able to pick the "custom" race?
