Tank drivers don't see "true" tracers.

[McBumLuv]

When driving a tank, seeing your gunner shoot the cox machine gun, all the tracers have no deviation, while as a gunner, the tracers do have deviation.

Right, that's known about.

But also, as a driver, when your gunner fires the main cannon, the tracer you see is roughly 5 meters higher than it should be, even though it'll register a hit on whatever your gunner was aiming at, and even though your gunner saw the tracer correctly.

I've experienced this tanking with ColonelCool, who can testify as well. So far, we've only used the T-72 and Abrams, so those are the only ones I know of that have it. More than likely it affects all tanks though.

Had the same thing...
5 min of discussion weither my gunner hit or not after every single shot....

Really annoying hope there's a way to fix it.

This bug has existed ever since .756, I think.

[CareBear]

yer its been kknow about for along time, ever since .6 when the periscope was brought in

[McBumLuv]

ORLY? It's bloody odd. why can't it just see the real tracers?

[ralfidude]

has to deal with position of gunner and driver i believe.

Id look up the forum where it was at, but thats way back in time, and those were sad time for me, so im not gonna go there, lol.

Yeah, this is a really old thing.


It's also a reason not to scold your gunner for missing - even the shells are desynced between you and him - so in fact he might have hit.
