a ww11 a/c or any a/c for that matter so i have no idea how the looked in RL.

oh simple, because:

1) it is ANNOYING.
2) it is ANNOYING.
3) it gives no fruitful information, but just moves back down more important topics than this senseless whine.
4) uh have I mentioned that it is ANNOYING?

We get repeat topics here all the time. Don't get annoyed, people like discussing things.

And.. calling for the moderators is like calling for mummy.

In fact, nothing is more annoying than a fanboy taking the charge of a self-appointed moderateror.
Also, what happened the past three weeks should have shown, with the deepest clarity the uselessness, of the yes-men team. But these pom-pom guys never learn : they are annoying AND counter-productive, but totally unable to notice it.
It's like some kind of sect.

you're lucky I'm not one, you'd be outta here in no time. As a forum member I have the right to express my opinion, and if you READ what I posted you might actually find the answers to your fears..

We talk on FACTS and EXPERIENCE, whilst you don't follow the forum rules (i.e. not looking for already discussed threads BEFORE posting new ones) and above all you have NO idea of what you're talking about. It must be really sad to be you buddy..

Everyone has a right to their own oppinion in these forums.
Even people that you or I don't agree with.

On the topic of this thread I think the Wellington movie looks really good as far as the tracers are concerened.
I did notice a couple times that the tracers looked a little "fat" but overall they do look good especially considering it was a daylight attack.
Does anyone know if the "Glimspur" night tracers are available in the sim?

One other thing. Considering that the appearance of tracers are dynamic with many factors in place determining how they should look, I think they overall appearance in the sim, with the Youtube movies being my only reference, look pretty good.

concur, they could do it in the appropriate thread or READ before giving lectures based on nothing, that's all I'm saying.

Facts and experience ? So if like you said you read all those threads about tracers, you would have come to the same conclusions :

Experienced military expressing facts are saying : close to RL, but still to bright, too long and too fat based on what we have been shown and have seen on video of the game play.
In his comments about tracers, Luthier begins his thread by saying that COD's
tracers are perfect, but could be tweaked for color, brightness and size...
So , we all agree that they are perfect but need tweaking ...That is all...
And please... keep cool...

Salute !

By the way...It is true though that watching the video with "corrected" gamma
gives a overall much more photorealistic impression. It is kind of in between COD's original "overexposed" and "overdone" WOP...Nice one...

Salute !

Cool vids and discussion
I don't want to voice an opinion of how similar (or not) to real life, for fears of getting a bat to the face, but I'd just like to say that i like the effects when shooting (with my bf109 anyways).
