I would say that what we have seen so far from COD:

They are a bit to large and long ... and to even...
When the are further away, they could look more like a dot and seem to "float"...
They could have a bit of faint smoketrail...
Starts at 0:40

Salute !

Have you seen the posted videos?The smoke trails shown looked very good.Let me see if I can find that video showing them.

Yes, yes my friend ! I have seen them ! Thanks !They are indeed perfect !

I was refering to those looking like "lasers"...Probably the smaller calibers...
Those without any smoke that we have been shown in updates... And in the latest video "with sound" posted here....

Salute !

As I said before, I think that video was recorded some time before the Kiev event or maybe it had the smoke trails turned off.I would be happy if the next friday update consisted about a few in-game videos using the current build with Ilya and Oleg explaining them.Its quite sad that we get to see those details like the trails through those videos and not by our devs here.

I think the tracer needs to drop. Although they may look like them, tracers were not lasers, and from leaving the barrel there would be some kind of bullet-drop in place. I haven't seen this in any of the videos shown yet.
They only gave a rough estimate of where the bullets would go. I'm sure some of the team behind the BoB2 patches researched this to get the tracers accurate enough for BoB2.

I think we need to assume that realistic gunnery was disabled, given that it was in IL2 since release I'd be amazed if it wasn't in CoD.

That would indeed be a reasonnable assumption...

They do drop. You can see in some of the past videos the cannon fuse going off at about 1000 yards and blowing up well in front and below the EA. This feature was already in IL2, there's no way they'd leave it out of this one.

I hear you , but remember that Oleg and Luthier have already stated that those
"laser-like" tracers were very accurate and were not to be altered...
Their symetry and ballistics were discussed in a couple of friday's updates...
But I still haven't find anything from real ww2 guncam that would be close to those we have seen so far in COD....
In the other hand, the glimpse we got regarding the ones with smoketrails look awsome...Larger caliber I presume...

Salute !
