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.

Please also reduce amount of sparks with HEF-I shells... every patch brings more and more of them. Nowdays planes like MiG-9, MiG-15 are struggling with sparks... sometimes you need to shoot 10 shells to shoot down even a fighter. That was only example... problem is wider. Pretty much all larger caliber than 20 mm is pain when stock and not much better with upgrades, it's not a ping issue - those stock rounds spark even when both sides have good ping.
Im an Atheist,but Amen.

laser war intensifies*
have you actually seen real guns fire with tracer shells?
Dude, that's how tracer bullets look IRL...
OMG, BRAND NEW LAZORS! *plays imperial march* Down with rebels!
I still miss the blue tracers for the germans that we used to have back in the day.
Have you seen combat footage of fire fights at night? lol
Lord_of_Cats, FFS replied to the wrong comment. How do delete? D:
I really love those tracers , so beautiful
Pew pew! ... didn't we get new tracers already a while back? the Old comparison is from what we had before current ones, near as I can tell, and the new ones look extremely much like lasers on that SPAA.

thanks god, no more squiggles
** IMPERIAL MARCH INTENSIFIES**
BTW They are pretty cool
Now rework audio please :) its much needed because everything sounds the same. If tanks had different engine noises it would add nice immersion to RB/SB
Excellent changes but your title needs editing
