i was playing on basrah, i was an insurgent and there was a scimitar off in the distance. he shot and killed me with the main cannon, but what was really odd was the length and width of the tracers. they were like really long, and they had some duration to them as well, they looked just like giant laser beams.i had a good amount of time to watch them because he kept shooting in my direction after i died he must have thought i was still alive. ive been playing PR since version 4, so i know what the tracers are supposed to look like, and this didnt seem right. i wish i would have taken a screen shot but i dont know how

ops: has anyone else seen this?

I was surprised at it myself when it was tearing east tower to shreds. It quite literally shot through the tower.

You can take a screenshot by pressing the "Print screen" key (or PrtScr or something) on your keyboard. It's usually at the top-right of the keyboard.

These screenies are automatically saved to your memory (paste in "paint" with control+v) and to your battlefield 2 folder, in "my documents" (in both jpg and png file format).

Yes, I've seen it to on Seven Gates... It's huge and it moves so slow that I can avoid it in a MATRIX style

When I saw that I nearly burst out laughing! It looks like something out of star wars!

All you have to do is sit still and imagine that the laser beams aren't there. They go away eventually, just wish Geroge Lucas would too, he's killing the franchise.

Was testing this with 5.56 tracer round in the now "dumped" mod SHVA, that is slower and bigger rounds

Quite fun, one could run away from the rounds, they were to slow.

In PR , I think the DEVs added the feature just for the "effect".

You mean that this happens only on certain processors?
