New Tracers

[FS~Phat]

I just made this quick video in Adobe Premier Pro to show side by side the difference in the tracers.

IL2 COD Tracers 18301 beta vs 15950 official
Beta Left Panel Official Right Panel
Notice contrast is better in the newer beta (left) and tracer viewing distance is increased.
That and the dimmer gun flash effects is about the only difference I see.
(and the obvious missing clouds)

Thank you very much for taking the time to do this.
The increased view distance for the tracers is nice to see.
I read that the bullets actually ricochet off the ground and water. What about bouncing off aircraft or ground targets? Are ricochets dependent on what the bullets hit and/or angle of impact or does it seem more random?
