The bomb has a 15km explosion radius, and it looks like a drone exploding. Please make bombs look like bombs when they explode.

Do tell, what should it look like IRL?
I'm sure you know, but are keeping it a secret...

So you honestly think it's appropriate the way it is?

Explosions don't necessarily need to be "visible"

For all you know its outside the visible light spectrum. CoolCool

Most of the damage done by explosions in the real world are done by sudden massive increases of preasure far away from the actually visible explosion itself.

I dont really know how preasure changes would work in a vacum though. Im not even sure there would be explosions in space.

The missile revamp also includes changing the explosions ... at least as far as I know. And the long-term DX11 projects change damage graphics altogether (and look epic btw).

And with bombs being a "kind of missile" in EVE, I think that CCP is already working on something.

explosions are basically fire as far as i know, there is not enough oxygen in space to have a fire unless it is fed oxygen i doubt there would be an explosion. hehe

I wonder how many people will get blown up by their own bombs watching the animation lol
