must have Tie-X
Nice pics but I do not dig that design
I agree.
Edited by Boom OwlYes please!
The First Order should have been flying something like this.
I really like it, though i feel the solar panels should be a little more blocky. That would make it look more imperial, and starwars like in general.
Why does it fly backwards? (If it didn’t, it’s sillhouette would look,like a retro space rocket)

I think it's cool. I like it more than, say, the TIE Hunter which is just too pointy for my tastes.
More importantly, does it have a cup holder?
Edited by Darth MeanieLooks like it's optimized for maximum efficiency, not so much firepower. Looks a lot like the TIEv1
First comment nailed it:
Quotethe ‘TIE’ in TIE fighter stands for “Twin Ion Engine”. That design has between 1 and 5 engines, I can’t really tell. Therefore it cannot be a TIE fighter.
It's certainly as good 'a design as the TIE Aggressor, which is anything but.
And now we know what is wrong with Audi recently
I like it, maybe FFG will go all Raider on this? Haha
Looks like he crossed a Tie Silencer with an F-22 Raptor. Nicely done!
Mehhhh. I like the cockpit changes - making it more bubble like makes a lot of sense, even discounting the wings, the view from a TIE cockpit is super restricted - but I'm not a fan of the wing design. There's only one ship in this game that should be x shaped.

I don't like the TIE-Hunter, but that can't be the scale to mesure.
Reminds me of Fractalsponge's TIE Mangler .

Which I like better
I like both the Mangler and this one
in game, an FO Striker like craft would be nice. I’d buy that.
These are always ridiculous in the presentation. "If a blank designed blank it would look like blank". No. If 5 different blanks designed blank, you'd see 5 completely different designs.
Also not impressed. Called an x with x spread wings but no guns on them. His photoshop with the Falcon looks horrible and the laser blasts are drawn too long. The backstory is uninspired surface level dribble. The cockpit is so bright that the poor pilot stuck flying it is toast in a real fight.
#NotMyEmpire!
The biggest issue I have personally is the way the panels are curved. There's only been a single ship with curved panels in the history of TIEs that I know of - the TAP. And even that didn't have that much curve. It just doesn't fit the TIE aesthetic.

What’s stoping two engines from feeding one exhaust?
Looks a bit stumpy
Imo needs greater wingspan
What a surprise, eh?

Perhaps something a bit more like this?
or this, with an actual Ion Engine:
