New Tracers
Attention! This news was published on the old version of the website. There may be some problems with news display in specific browser versions.
In one of the nearest War Thunder updates, we will significantly improve the visuals for tracers in our game.
Players see tracers in every single battle - coloured “lights” of MG bullets, white flashes of tank rounds, multi-coloured lines of AA fire. In one of the upcoming updates we will introduce improved tracers for all types of ammunition. Tracers are now better optimized, they become visible much faster and from greater distances.

I like the one for the aircraft, but the ground one looks too red. Reminds me of Star Wars.
Have you seen combat footage of fire fights at night? lol
Lord_of_Cats, Also the god damn Shilka. I think nobody here has ever seen a Shilka firing.
Good looking as always!
Now I'm even more scared to take a plane out!
Let it rain!!!
I like these new effects!
Nice! As long as it's historical, I shan't have any issues. When will the new vehicle devblogs come? :P
I'm glad you are improving visual effect, but why tracers, which has been modified not so far in an update? There are still bottom and inside snowy tanks, the explosions could be improved too etc. please invest some time in that and I'm willing to invest more golden eagles :)
Finally they won't leave that much smoke behind tracer! They look very realistic now. Amazing work Gaijin! :)
well thats nice if the chance to get night map was equal to the day one
Now bring more night maps so we can have a nice party with all those lights.
