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.

you guys need to work on matchmaking. I played a couple games and in my vampire i played against the rocket powered me 262. My whole team was destroyed and not one of the players on the other team were
Amazing as always, Gaijin! Great to see more graphical improvements. Will this come with the next major update or perhaps a smaller one? Also, are you considering adding more versions of the P40?
These look like snowballs.. I'd be much more than pleased to see a selection between every tracer effects we had in graphics setings
Excelent change! Really looks fantastic!
Goooooooooood....GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD........ Let the improvements flow through War Thunder......... Mechanics, visuals, BR's..... Noce!!!
When is the update with the BR changes coming out?
It happened already. same with repair changes.
Looks great! :)
Bit unfair showing them at night *cough* because night battles are so rare *cough* I'm not complaining though, they're prettier now.
When we can hear real sounds of war machines?????? still hoping to see that, visual is decent, but sound is needed to improve.
not to mention improved sounds for shells ricocheting off of your armor...however little that happens.
They look so much prettier
