Title: No tracers on bombers
Post by: Razzor 479th on March 11, 2012, 08:31:45 PM

Ok, this may have already nbeen addressed, but what's up with the no tracers on buffs now.  Like they need more of an advantage?  I hear they can their tracers, but other panes can't?  Anyone know if this is going to be permanent?

As far as I know you can turn them on or off.

I heard it was a bug since the last patch. Although I could see tracers from my 17s today, I wondered if the enemy could. They just seemed to sit there nice and pretty for me. The only time I couldn't kill every fighter on me was when they came from separate directions all at once. If the came in one at a time...they were toast.

IIRC it only affects your plane, not your drones.  But I may be wrong.

Yes... it is a bug that snuck into the last patch.  The bomber gunner can see this tracers from the lead plane and the drones... just like always.  No one else can see them... that is the bug.

It's a vicious bug.  Pretty nasty surprise.  I know, always expect to be shot, but it does help to know when those three planes are actually firing.  :joystick:
