The Air Explosion

Is the debris-style air explosion random, or is it supposed to happen all the time? Because mostly I get a little "poof" instead.
Edit: Just occurred to me that this should probably be in the Support forum. Mod move, please?

What debris-style explosion? I've only seen a poof with bits and pieces fly forward.

That's what I mean. I mostly get the explosion without the bits and pieces.

Pretty sure that's the only explosion you're supposed to have!

Hold up, I'll get a screenshot. It look like a land explosion, but in the air.

That's two Hummingbirds exploding after destroying each other. Most of the time I get this rather than the cool 'splosion with the pieces flying forwards.

I've had the same thing happen. It may be a matter a draw distance perhaps? I find the farther I'm out the more I just see little poofs. Or maybe it's just a graphical bug.

nope that's not what it's supposed to look like.

please report here with your dxdiag : www.pa.lennardf1989.com/Tracker/

Will do. Have done.

Wait! I have had this same issue......for weeks....omg.

Wait a sec, this is happening to other people?!

teht, you had the thing with the new nuke effect as well, right? Maybe it's a thing with AMD cards.

I'm pretty sure they changed the air explosion back (it was using the old anti-nuke explosion before).

That could be.
Goddamn AMD...

I've had this with nvidea for as long as the new effect has been implemented
