It is effectively a step up from milsims, and as such is VERY fun.


I have a rifle and have tracer rounds, i can CONFIRM that there is NEVER any tracer "wiggle". If you really are so strongly opinionated towards tracer wiggle, go to a shooting range at dusk and ask to see some tracer shots, the one near me often has night shoots.

read again u didn't understand me.

ok, maybe I didn't understand your first post then: what are you trying to prove?

I think he's trying to say what was pointed out in the other thread, time and time again.... some people see guncam footage and think that's how it is to the naked eye - guncam footage jerks around a bit.

?

As the only sit on a chair, thats way worse.

+100 to that.

I live in a basement, and I pretend to be a WW2 pilot (because there's no way I can afford to do the real thing) And I'm a nerd :grin:

Back on topic, the only people I'm ever going to trust to give any kind of valid opinion on what tracers should look like for THIS sim, is someone who's regularly fired tracer rounds, at another aircraft, whilst flying at 300kph+ (specifically between the months of July and October in 1940...over the Channel) ;-)

Or someone who's sat in an aircraft having tracers rounds pummled at them at over 300kph+ :)

Agreed. Even then the few that are still alive probably didn't spend much time evaluating what their tracers looked like.

True, probably heads down in the cockpit, wondering where they're fresh pair of pants were. :)

Airsoft can't compare to real bullets, muzzle velocity is way too low.

The velocity is much slower, but the effect in the movie gives a very good impression of what tracers really look like.
