Blasters need to look less like a fire hose of milk. |

It'd be nice if ship explosions had distortive pressure waves on them It certainly makes the new warp effect look good! |

One assumes that spaceships are full of gases. Upon destroying a spaceship, one assumes these gases reach very high temperatures. One assumes this creates a distortion effect, as the gases fly out in all directions. |

That's a controlled water dump from some type of hose. An explosion is not a controlled water dump. Sorry. |

Ships in EVE explode like balloons. There's a huge rupture in the hull which creates the sudden explosion. If anything explodes fast enough, it behaves like a balloon.
If you destroy a ship in EVE with 8x 1400mm artillery cannons, there's going to be a big hole. In fact, there's going to be big holes with any weapon. Also, ships in EVE suddenly explode. A giant hull breach is guaranteed.
Big holes do not mean bigger jets of gas, unless the pressure & volume of the gas is high enough. Since the gases in a ship will be near-atmospheric, there will be no jets unless the hull breach is small enough for a constant stream of gases to persist.
Instead, through a large hole - spanning the entirety of the ship - you'll find that a large portion of the gases will escape and expand in a large cloud. When heated, this will create a pressure wave. |

Not just fire when a ship is low on structure... Tiny little explosions! |
