Its an old game but what do you think of these tracers compared to what you have seen in CoD, i think they're pretty nice

Yep...smoke, fire, tracers(not the wiggle) and explosions looks fantastic for a sim that old.

Very nice looking tracers, I love them. But not what your eye would see - hence not good enough for CoD. :)

God I miss this game. The level bombing is good in il2, but just not as immersive (except for when the formations are large).

Loved that game, heck I still do;) Tracers look good but as previously stated, this is not what you would see when you're in the cockpit, or you have to fly your plane through a live connection with your guncam haha.

The damage in this was the best , you could peel away every inch on an aircraft.

The tracers and smoke trails in B17-2 did look very good but were not realistic.
In fact, the team who made the game were told, by veterans who were used for their knowledge, NOT to include the squiggly tracers...but they did anyway.
