Tracers on/off

[Saxman]

Because it's a game.

Turning off tracers is probably the LEAST gamey thing that ever happens in this game.

Because it's a game.

This does not explain anything.

I'm happy with belt mods and all that, but I just think that because it's a game tracers should always show.

I do not see how ones follow from another, especially since switching off tracers may be important for frame rate for some people.

The frame rate issue shouldn't be an issue to begin with in 2014.

Definitely is, especially when you are flying a plane with more than 3 guns.  P47 gives a .5-2 second frame freeze for shooting if not above water.

Not for most, but to assume that everyone can just up and get a 'decent' computer, isn't practical.

Depending on the bells and whistles you have turned on in advanced graphics, offline sitting on the runway in a P51D. Hold down on the trigger firing all guns with 10x ammo. You can watch your FPS drop by up to 30.

The current damage model uses a counter so we have hybrid ammo. Maybe with the change in graphics, the damage model will be changed, and specific result ammo will be possible.

I'm holding out for the possibility convergence and harmonization will be updated.

+1. Better yet, if possible, keymap it or make it a dot command.

Keymapping it would make not much sense, as with any other option that is/would be only adjustable in the tower/hangar, never inflight.

I remember when I started playing aw and there were this 2 keys that would tell me about how far or close a piper airplane was.  I never did find it.  until somebody explained the meaning to me

At least make it so that if I turn tracers off on my buffs my drones have them off as well.   

I want those little gnats behind me to hear it hit, not see it coming.
