Here is a longer video from the masstest with sound and the explosion at 11:00. https://youtu.be/XpZrI0lC8UI

Thanks for sharing...

It seems... nothing really happens to the keepstar structure hull after the explosion

I expected it would become something similar to a split Titan wreck ......

I think the only thing that needs to be fixed is to ensure the wreck maintains the same orientation as the citadel does.

The explosion was pretty cool. That the Keepstar kept his form not so.

Yea i think so too, best will be i think that the Keepstar 1st will be hidden when the Exlotion beginnst and break in few Pieces like a Capital Wreack.. but we will see, it is possible that CCP change this too ;)

To be honest, on reflection, I feel like an explosion of that magnitude should break the superstructure into dozens of pieces.

But that would break the concept of ONE Wreck.

I think the explosion of one should be a LONG drawn out thing, maybe even start its animation in the last 5% of its hull.

It should slowly break up and break apart. Maybe a tower gets just sheered off by a large explosion, followed by the other tower splitting into 4 pieces as many smaller explosions ones break it up. Finally the main base should explode wtih the main reactor going critical taking the entire structure with it leaving a very large hole where the undocking tubes used to be. The wreck should reflect this with the biggest pieces floating in space.

Something this big, needs a good 30 or even 90 second death animation. Besides, who doesn't want to watch some awesome explosion of something they just killed, hell the Titans and Supercaps need something like this too.

And what if it stays at 3%?

An explosion like that SHOULD destroy any nearby sub-cap ships.

Eve mechanics say no.

If normal explosions, not matter how epic, don't hurt surrounding ships, then these won't either.


Although I do wish at some point that does become a reality. Meaning you have to be careful when killing a ship, that you are not too close least you too go down with him. It would cause a lot of drones to die....not a bad thing really.
