You can't see anymore the AA tracers

Another unnecessary stealth patch and this time it’s for the AA, it occurs since a week or more dunno and I’m amazed no one noticed that.

You can’t see anymore from where the AA shot, the bullets are invisible so good luck as pilot or even as infantry to find from where they shot.
I understand the AA needed a buff but this one is just exaggerated and stupid, you should see as before the shots, now you can’t even defend you.

It’s completely hilarious you think it’s somewhat intentional feature rather than normal bug.

But I didn’t encounter it myself, so I don’t even know if it’s legit.

It’s look like more a change than a bug so I don’t find what is hilarious here but I hope you are true and it’s a simple “bug”.

If you didn’t encountered this problem it mean you play very few planes because i’m not the only one, I have some friends who noticed that too.

I really don’t think they do “stealth patches” (or “shadow nerfs” as others have said before), its most likely just a bug, just based on how many there are in the game.
Remember the game is still in beta, so there will be lots of issues and things to fix.

Okay, I hope so and will be fixed fast

Buddy take a guess why real life Flak had tracers… it´s not a buff it´s a nerf if anything. Also when I used an AA last weekend it did have tracers.

I recall them nerfing the VG 1-5 damage but not having it in the patch notes. Also it´s the snail company, would you really put it past them to be that scummy?

Yes, It’s a buff for AA and a nerf for planes since you can’t see them anymore from where they shot, they can destroy planes safely without caring dying. Before you could see them shooting from the spawn menu on the map or from the sky and now it’s like you are hit by a ghost, the tracers are inexistent and it’s so dumb.

I didn´t say that, your english is so shit that´s what you thought I said.

They´re still there when I used them, post video of the tracers not working.

If you get shot down by the nerfed AA you deserve to be shot down, afterall you can still hear them shooting at you and they don´t do that much damage either. Also barely anyone ever builds AAs, it shouldn´t be that big of a problem in the first place.

Plane mains just hate the concept of losing their wings even though they’re probably shit Pilots to begin with and Ace pilots don’t even have that problem To begin with they know how to fly and where the kill zones are

So we don’t play the same game fdp because almost every game there’s AA and I don’t agree if you get down by AA it’s deserved since you can’t even counter them, hearing them don’t help you at all because you don’t even know where they are. That’s why tracers should be back

they do next to no damage thanks to the nerf unless you’re actively trying to get yourself down you deserve what you get you shouldn’t be flying so low to the ground and be so predictable

It’s not because they do next to no damage they should remove tracers, it’s just a bad “balance” you have 0 logical. They can buff the damage but should back the tracers at least, like it so hard to understand

I doubt they’ll give us back the damage Plane mains will cry in ocean if we could down them reliably again

Show me footage then. Every match gets recorded so show me the replay or get into the game and build an AA and show us.

There wasn’t any intentional change to the ammo of AA guns, if you have video evidence of this happening please make a report on the CBR: Gaijin.net // Issues

Can you tell me if the zoom removed in the tank commander view was intentional?
We need the zoom back

It’s intentional, was removed in QoL°42:

I recently played Tunisia Axis and saw tracers/ rounds of German AA shooting at an enemy plane from a distance (1-1.500m). So at least for me it is working.

Really weird, I will check again tonight but yesterday it wasn’t working
