Default What are you seeing / hearing in the new update?

Since there isn’t a Read Me how about reporting the new stuff you’re noticing in the new patch. I'll start it off...

-New tracers that are that are much better than old ones
-Tracer hits on ground are new and cool with ricochet action
-Sound of guns inside of Brit fighters is much improved…now sound like guns instead of someone drumming fingers on desk
-General performance seems improved.

Overall a nice update and step in the right direction

Tracers do look a lot better...loads better in fact

Not sure on the massive dots appearing on airfields though from a considerable distance

NO, definitely the effect of the trees at 2000 ft. is not fine at all. It is simply horrible. The tree does appear like little dots in front of the plane and disappear in the back. And because there are no tree at greater range the scene is bad at long range it is difficult to look at. It is a steep back. The previous patch for this was better, far better. Also there is no FPS benefit.

There have been multiple accounts of this being fixed by changing the trees quality in your video options.

Clouds don't give nearly the fps hit that they used to, can't wait for more missions with heavy cloud cover.
