I just tried out the open beta release and I hope that those tracer effects are not in the game you are going to release!

They look like crap!

What do you mean they look like crap? Unless your system cant handle them, they look awesome...they remind me of tracers from world war II guncam footage.

I think we are on to something here:

Silly string out of the can!

Kinda looks like that come to think of it!

Gun Camera!  We aren't sitting behind the gun camera in the cockpit!  Those rounds are coming out of the wings.

 :rofl :lol :D :p

I was just hoping that they might change this too before the release!  And this is what a beta forum is all about.  Expressing some viewpoints on what the people want to see in the next release.  And Silly String coming out of the sides of the cockpit look like Crap!  Get rid of it.

I think it looks good, but then again I dont think too many people here have actually sat in the cockpit of a plane and fired its machine guns while going 300 mph...and some guncam footage looks like the tracers.

Here I will make it easy for you.
Just read the following and try and keep up with the rest of us will you:rolleyes:

Funny I see nothing about tracers?




Remember, it's BETA
Folks, we appreciate you taking the time to test this BETA, but please remember, it is a BETA. BETA is not something that is about enjoyment. They are for the purpose of the developer, to test various items in the software.

There are items/features in the game which take little development time. These have not been included with the BETA.

Items we are interested in, right now, are things like the black ICONS/text, not being able to run the game at all, and various other blatant graphics problems/anomalies.

Again, we appreciate the ime you are taking to help us make this BETA worthwhile.

Yeah Personally I think the Beta is really good, of course I can't run it on my comp yet, but I did see it on a friends comp. Keep up the good work HTC staff
