Firstly, I
think that Oleg was saying that they have many types of round modelled but not yet applied, so what we are seeing is not the real thing.
Secondly, I would be disappointed if smoke wasn't shown because it's pretty clear that smoke does occur whether it be from the round itself or the atmosphere. One of the biggest difficulties I have found in IL2 is to know where you are firing with .50cal and lower, the addition of the Holy Grail and Potenz effect pack was possibly the best mod ever produced imho and if you have ever looked at the comparison videos on you tube (I posted one in a previous thread before) you will see the similarities.
Other effects I would like to see are tracer rounds bouncing off the sea, land and targets at various angles - this is very clear in a lot of the USAAF ground attack footage from P-47s
