RRs sound like electric Softair Guns, but a bit louder.

With the release of the new rifles and a greater emphasize on longed ranged combat and the coming of new racial weapons I feel weapon types should receive distinct bullet trails.

Currently, only the Laser weapons have their own definitive weapon trail, while plasma, rail, and projectile lack any really distinction unless it's an MS or PC which light their path as they travel. The best way to tell what your enemy is firing at you is to listen to the discharge sound of said gun in question, shotguns sound like fart cannons, everyone at this point knows what an AR sounds like, CRs sound like a BB gun, every weapon makes a noise that helps in knowing what's being fired around you.

A lack of proper visual representation of damage types makes tactical assessment in terms of long-mid range combat more difficult than it needs to be, giving weapons bullet trails according to their would help provide a more distinct feel to each weapon and would help with identifying different weapons being used on the field, while also providing a more satisfying feeling to firing ones gun.

This isn't a priority or anything of the sort, just an idea for improving immersion for players and helping players through active information gathering on the field, I also think it's unfair for laser weapon users who are easily identified on the first shot making them easily prioritized over a greater threat that could next to them like a sniper rifle.

Laser shots are easy to recognize.
RR let some "trail" of smoke behind.
CR lets some dozen of dead ennemies per shot.
AR has a long yellow bullet trail.

They are all easy to recognize in fact.


Ps : Charged shots of SCR is not a huge blast anymore WHY ?
It was so beautiful ! Now it's just a regular shot :/
