Lady Fitzgerald Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 The site won't let me in, probably because I blocked their misbegotten cookie. For the record, should anyone from Corsair who has a say in the matter happen to look here, I also feel Corsair should have stayed with the old logo. The ship sail silhouette, suggesting a pirate ship, makes more sense than the wings of the new one. The white and black of the old logo goes well with any color scheme, unlike the yellow of the new one. Also, having mixed logos from the same manufacturer in the same system looks a bit too busy.

terabyte Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Leaving the logo aside... why YELLOW? That's the worst color they could have chosen :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badman5 Posted September 23, 2014 Author Share Posted September 23, 2014 Leaving the logo aside... why YELLOW? That's the worst color they could have chosen :( i do kinda agree with you. I don't like the fact that it pops out, but i dislike the crab/tramp stamp more than the letters, still i prefer blue,purple white or red over a yellow or green. Green woulda been worse thou, that would just scream razer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riekopo Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Either revert back to the old logo ASAP or let the community choose a new logo. That's the only way this situation can be salvaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alahan Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 I also would prefer the original logo and see no need why to make this separation with a "gaming division." However, it's a bit too late as most of the hardware with the new logo is already available by tomorrow. I've been waiting since the announcement of the RGB K70 and was secretly hoping for a RGB version of the K95 and my wish was granted. I do not want anymore delays just because people are not satisfied with the new logo. If anything, I think it'd be fair if Corsair made a decal available with the original logo as an option for people who dislike the new logo. [Edit] I also agree that yellow is a very poor choice as it is one of the least popular colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
007vsMagua Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 The old logo was simple and elegant and now this new logo really sucks. And what's with the yellow, it looks like cheap advertising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Fitzgerald Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Keep in mind, folks, you can always cover the logo with a sticker of your choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perfected Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Keep in mind, folks, you can always cover the logo with a sticker of your choice. Yes, but the authentic 'non sticker' version was much more superior, sleek and professional. On a side note... 1600 supporters, wow. Awesome.

Dante12590 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I give props to you for getting the petition going and making your voice heard. I'm fairly curious how this will end up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexter 7 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 This new logo looks like a trampstamp on a trashy LA hooker. Corsair - a pirate ship a privateer, especially one operating along the southern coast of the Mediterranean in the 16th–18th centuries. I was so ready to purchase a K70 RGB too, but it looks like corsair lost a customer :sigh!: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dicehunter Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Signed, The yellow looks like crap, The new logo looks like crap, I cancelled my pre-order of the RGB K95 and RGB M65, Sorry Corsair but your new logo looks crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revengencer Alf Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Signed the petition and canceled my order. I was really looking forward to an RGB keyboard but not at the cost of having a glaring yellow juvinile tramp stamp plastered on top. I considered just puting a piece of black tape or something over it, but then I realized, no... I shouldn't have to jury-rig a product that I'm paying ~$150 for to not look stupid.

NuclearSoldier Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Corsair should be focusing on developing firmware for the k70 rgb that fixes all the issues everyone is having instead of trying to figure out a new logo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xelnaga15 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I see this re-branding as a sign that Corsair is no longer interested in making products for the group of consumers that has traditionally purchased and associated with their iconic clean design. Clean and sleek is too boring for them now. They want to attract hip and cool customers with tramp stamps who want wild flair and more swag. In all seriousness I was waiting for the K70 LED. Have no interest in the Chroma(synapsebloat, no cherry switches) nor the WTFBBQPWN360NOSCOPEYOLOSWAG ORION SPARK G910(tacky 2003 called they want their gaming products back) ... Now the K70 has an eyesore of a logo right smack dab in the middle with YELLOW TEXT! Sure sure its just a logo now... but who knows what they will rebrand next... I'm a firm believer of voting with your wallet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
