Need Asplosion!

So, I had a carrier van trying to do a run down to texan from SS. During an arrival encounter at Shanty, the van couldn't shake the bad guys.
He got hit a lot, caught fire and EXPLODED. Except...  there was no great big fireball. It just jumped and the text said that the vehicle exploded.
Would be nice if there was a great visual on exploding vehicles, just a big red and black BLAMMO cloud. Don't need pieces flying off or anything (though that would be cool). |

I'm assuming you saw the replay... I love the way that the cars around th lorry shoot off as if the hiroshima bomb has just landed right next to them |

We need BIGGER 'splosions...
With that shockwave, you'd expect a bigger bang! |

Serephe Posted Feb 26, 2010, 11:16 pm |
Sam can add bigger explosions all he wants.
I'll just build a bigger bomb and break it again. |

Maybe we could make the explosion look like the hiroshima bomb too

Maybe fuel cans size of reservoir could add to the effect of the blast | ||||

Maybe surrounding peds could get hit by flying shrapnel!

*Tinker* Posted Feb 27, 2010, 6:03 pm |
and catch fire and/or explode

The guys playing a while can recall the famous explosion bug. Right before a car exploded, the game would freeze up for like 1-2 seconds, just enough time to say "Oh #$$%!" I didnt feel it was a bug, I liked it hehe | ||||

I liked the dramatic pause, but not the fact my client would 'hiccup' over the explosion animation. It would pause a second, play the explosion sound, then resume with a blackened car. |
