Lets see how this one escalates. It might be a funny one.

Okay, I'll start the show:
What exactly is wrong with tracers? Should they really visibly *blur out* while traveling in excess of 600m/s? The way it is looks fine to me. Judging from video, of course, as I'm not a citizen of the united states of gunfire and don't have access to medium-to-large-caliber tracers (nor do I want to).

I have to agree, though that is from a purely asthetical viewpoint and irrespective of any reality.

OMFG....not again!!!! I haven't chimed in on this in the previous 14 threads but I cant stand it any longer. I have to say something this time and I have kept this quiet but....in real life I am a tracer. So I know what I am talking about. I come from a long line of tracers. My grandfather was an oerlikon tracer in the Second World tracer war on the German side and my grandmother was on the British side, thats how they actually met but thats another story. Anyhow your all correct. In any family you have all different sizes and shapes. My Dad was pretty fat and slow (was fired from Janes back in the day), mum was slight and fast an very colourful due to her great fashion sense (she actually used to work as a consultant on the first IL2 series). My brother is always drunk and is fat and wiggly and got a job with WOP. I'm razor sharp with a quit wit over at eagle dynamics and my sister is....well we dont talk much about her she is an oilerkin vaccum now and just sucks....she's a sl*t. So there....we can be whatever you want (my son wants to go to Hollywood and work for George Lucas when he grows up).
I need another bourbon....bye

i know there have been discussions. This was not intended to start a big discussion. Just a suggestion on how they could look better without big effort.
