The falcon one looks ok to me, but you can barely see the shield part behind the falcon.

All they had to do was take the symbols from our signatures and we Would have been happy lol

Well spoken. I think the main issue here is the cropping.

How did these noble sigils of proud Clans:









become the abominations I see before my eyes?

Cause we are not in the 90's anymore.

What the heck is that supposed to mean?

Then why so many here, including myself, still love and respect such old emblems?

Sooo.....

6 logo's designed in the 80's are a-ok?

But the 90s, No, we can't have any of that trash around?

I will say it in that way - i am sorry to see such abuse with The Clans and i am glad (i no mean to insult to you guys ) that my clan will remain untouched by that desecration. I am disappointed :
The Wolf - is a bit acceptable - but there is something at his teeth .
The Bear - why the hell the nose is so high .
The Jaguar - here become scary - i don't know what animal is that but definitely is not a jaguar , more looks to me a some sort of crossbreed between bear and something else , also why i think that smoke jaguar needed to be gray with faint brown in color - LIKE A SMOKE not black !
The Falcon - here in my opinion was made the heaviest hit - it is not longer look to bird of prey - it is look more to parrot in my opinion .

What nonsense are you speaking? So because it was in the 90s it is not good?

[Rubidiy]

One thing should be understood by PGI. These are freakin military insignias we're talkin about!!!! Animals on them absolutely should not be redesigned into childish Disney style. This is such a huge stylistic mistake. These logos should be inspired by mid-ages knight insignias or military ones, but not a Lion King art.
PGI will be stubborn as usual and won't acknowledge their blunder... so It's just another reason to answer to this with my wallet.

We are here because of those Old designs, and a respect should come to them when they are redrawn.

My initial reaction is one of total confusion; why change what has caused a clan to be recognizable for years? It'd be nice to have an option for a "classic" logo. That being said they aren't bad I guess, just very different and I'd prefer the original.

[Jaroth Corbett]

It was Nicholas Kerensky's vision that divided the 800 warriors of his military-in-exile into the 20 Clans, assigning each a totem animal from which they could draw inspiration and to which they could pledge their loyalty.

I would accept that as a compromise

Those emblems you posted are not from the 90's. Those are recolors and redesigns. They just have the same shape as the original logos and thus were true to their origins.

I wonder how many man hours of artists time was taken up redesigning something that didn't need redesigning. It's sad to think that the reason we haven't had clans as a faction choice was because they felt the need to redo the clan emblems. Heck there are 3 more clans getting a screw job as we speak. Artists time that is not being spent on stuff people actually want.

I've really tried to get it but I don't see how people can say the new one looks less like a bird of prey than the old one, people can rage at me for picking Jade Falcons just because their whole vibe seems cool (MW2 Intro is cool), but as an outsider and thus I think a bit more impartial than the long time fans I don't see how the old JF logo looks at all more like a bird of prey than the new one.

The worst you can say about the new one in regards to pigeony characterisitics is it looks like it's got a bit of a fat belly rather than a more stocky yet streamline build.

Even the beak on the old one is a bit more pigeony looking than the new beak.

I didn't say the ones I posted were from the 90s. I was replying to the guy's thoughts in general; that because something is from the 90s, it is not good. That is all.

I see where they got the inspiration for the new Clan Wolf logo...

[LoPanShui]

This is the neckbeardiest thread...

The new logos look pretty awesome to me, and I'm jealous the Steiner Fist didn't get an upgrade. The original designs were cool, and these are just upgrades of them. They look less like templates and more like something that a clan of proud warriors would spend hours perfecting before they revealed them to the world. They're a lot less basic and prideless in their creation.

Go ahead and try to change the US flag and see what happens! STRAVAG!

Umm, dude... The US Flag has been changed like... 39 Times.

Anyway guys, I think your new clan logos look totally badass. they're seriously intimidating and I, for one, am personally terrified of Clan Wolf's logo now. Please don't steal all my planets, The Archon needs factories.

[Meldric Ward]

Also for no reason?
Try it today and see.

Put in some disney characters.

Whatever, just another, disappointing and useless step into the wrong direction.

I love my logo. It's quite stylized and impressive. I would have been happy with the originals. This just helps add to the hype of finally repping my clan in battle!
