I have the same issue: the missiles are fired within range, proceed to target as usual, but about 1 sec before impact, they disappear visually. The damage is registered, but not visible.

I’m running Incursions and missiles disappear close to the target on my client as well. All graphics settings except post processing is on or set to high. Enabling post processing changes nothing.

I made a video. I’ll create a support ticket later.

I created a support ticket with the video but ‘my bug reports’ says “An unexpected error occurred while loading the bug report form. Please try again later,” so it could take awhile.

**#PLEASECCP** same here, my cruise missile won’t apply the explosion effect correctly on the target’s shield, armor or hull. It’s a tragedy loss.😥

‘My bug reports’ works again. So I uploaded a second video. It will probably be a few hours until I hear from CCP.

I’m having the same issue, missiles still do damage, but they disappear before hitting the target. The same happens to incoming missiles.  
I tried toggling the checkboxes under “Effects” with no luck.

As far as I know, there has been at least three pilots including me submitted bug reports. We may receive answers in days.

Luckily this problem doesn’t influence game playing.

And by the way, I believe there would be more and more pilots find this issue.

Yes, they just play with camera zoomed out. Or dont use missiles even, but drones and turrets.

I remember once missiles even got their own brackets in space an you could trace it by its brackets, looked rather nice in missions, but it was a bug. Missiles are not supposed to have any brackets.

I didn’t notice that… Maybe that’s because I always use missiles…😥

I get this with rail guns as well, i also get a similar issue like the missiles, the gun animation stops and there is no ammo trace. The damage still gets applied.

Same issue here, replying in hopes that someone’ll find a fix eventually.

Hi folks,

My apologies for missing this forum thread, but we believe we discovered the root cause of this issue and a fix should have gone out in yesterdays patch. A big thank you to those of you that sent in bug reports, they massively helped with the investigation into what caused this.

If any of you are still able to reproduce this bug, please do get in touch so we can take another pass at this to make sure we nail it once and for all.
