The future of "combat sims" may lie in their just being normal sims with extraordinary weapon systems.

There are currently five major combat systems available:
- MMOG Toolkit (http://mmogtoolkit.sourceforge.net )
- DarkLife
- Akor
- Jessie
- OpFor

Of these, Jessie is the only one that actually needs damage areas.

The others handle the combat themselves and bystanders can stay innocent.

But somehow I can see that combatants won't go for this...

Given that you don't have terrain at 500 meters, your suggestion won't work for anything other than aircraft. And do you really want spent shell casings landing on your head from 500 meters up?
