No Tracers.

I can see tracers from my own aircraft, but can no longer see them from any aircraft or ground. What's going on?

Dunno.

Tracers were resized during v1.31 with the new system ... because in the past, they were way too large. This gave the impression of "lazzors!" everywhere. As a result of the decrease in size, they are less visible from angles of view that made them easier to see before.

Basically, only the shooter and the person who sees them from an angle close to that of the shooter (as in they are going over your shoulder as they pass you) will see them easily now, and it's worth noting that this is much more realistic than everyone from every angle nearby seeing bright orange beams of light going off all over the place.

I was wondering about that! Good call on making them smaller.

hrm, Ok, I can handle that, but I can't see tracers even up close. A lot of my squadmates are having the same issue. Don't see any tracer smoke either from other aircraft, at all. I'll make some video and post it.
