Tracer options...
« on: February 28, 2001, 04:39:00 AM »
I don't know about you guys but I usually fly fighters with tracers off.Sometimes in the heat of the moment I have to jump in a Gv for base defense and I always forget to select tracers back...

It would be nice to have a "no tracers" option for fighters only .

just a thought ,no biggy really...

Fly with tracers off too, if you're in a GV the tracers won't be seen by you but they will be seen by others, same thing with buff guns. They should automaticly been seen by you in the gunners even if they are disabled, something for HTC to think about.

 I like it that f you disable your tracers that no see's them anymore. That's the whole point. Disabling your tracers is the same as not loading tracers at all and no one should see what you are not shooting..

Thanks for THAT info !
I thought that buffs with no tracers could give the impression that the rear gunner was asleep and lure fighters to close in while I was ranging <duh!>
Then tracers should be always on for buffs and GVs and the on/off option should only apply to fiters...

Again not a big issue but not too hard to implement I guess...

Umm.. I fly without tracers on buffs and I do think the people I shoot at dont see my fire... people dont evade when I spray the air... and they would if they saw the tracers.

Heck im quite sure that no tracers in buffs means nobody, not even you sees the tracers.
