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.

Anyone know of this cool visual change will lower or increase FPS? :O
So, laser beams then
Uhmmm, I think the old was better, and more realistic.
btw those tracers will be added in 1.65 or in small update?
but where are our tank night battles??? it occurs about once every 1000 games
Very nice the old tracers seem so fake somehow especially watching them in slo mo on replays.
Well these will look great on the single night map I see every other month or so! :L Still holding out for some kind of realistic night-fighting specific mechanics in game one day. Radar, moon states that aren't nearly as bright as the day maps (as they currently are), etc. Perhaps then flying out a Lancaster won't be so ridiculously pointless.
It looks beautiful
Ohhh..rgasmic tracers! Nice work on that development!
now get rid of over heat from spaa and give the full ap bets back
"overheat" for aa guns? I've never seen that happen also no one likes getting killed by an AA with their ap belts
