...more realistic combat effects.
I find it annoying when watching EVE combat to see every single laser/missile/projectile intersect at exactly the same point on the target.
In reality the target (be it a POS / a dread / a carrier / a battleship etc.) would be being peppered with fire all over - and it would certainly make FRAPS of battles a lot more interesting...
Please can we have some randomised effect - or is this too difficult to implement...
If so tell me and I will go and sit in the corner quietly 
------------------------------ Blog's back - for now

Makes no odds to me or my corp/allaince as we all live in a lag infested area we turn all gam effects & turrret effects off to try n grab a little more framerate.

the lag element is one reason it doesnt happen ... yet maybe with a 512k minimum bandwidth CCP might be abel to do it but while dial up customers are catered for its a race to the bottom in terms of lag reduction

Well mining lasers have no problem hitting more than one spot on the rock.

Network connection doesn't factor in here. Randomized hits can be clientside fluff. Sure a hit would be on a different spot for each client looking at the same scene but who cares :)

I'm already not impressed by the fact that missiles fly through asteroids to hit me. Fix that first.

People PvP with effects turned on? 
Would look nice for NPC'ing I guess but any improvement in sound, weapon effects and ship effects is useless to 95% of the PvPing playerbase

Actually missiles used to hit things in the way....and the result was lots of people would get into empire wars with missiles and then hide behind a neutral ship until it took a cruise missile, then concord showed up and...you know the rest.
Still its funny to see missiles avoiding things these days, like "oops, youre not my target....nope, not you either....maybe over here?" ~ ~ ~

I usually have effects on, except in fleet. I like to see who's nos'ing me (so I can make it a point to kill them)
