i do not have enough posts to put this in suggestions...so can someone else.

the tracer rounds need to be more realistic..the green and red color are way off. Both faction would have the same...light orange to yellow color tracer rounds. I think it would add to the gameplay a lot .. thanks

Lifted from some random forum explaining why, not really a great source but:
U.S./NATO ammunition usually has a mixture of strontium salts and a metal fuel such as magnesium; this results in the bright red light. Most ammunition for Russian and Chinese weapons generate green light (from the use of barium salts). As an old military adage puts it: “tracers work both ways.”
We give OPFOR the green because many are using AKs or other Russian based weapons. While the BLUFOR are obviously the US and other NATO/Allied forces

And yes, if you dont have the post count needed, its normally because you should wait and read around the forums/research some before throwing out a suggestion ;)
