Spotting hits in 1.60

Hello there. There was a lovely feature in 1.60 beta that allowed other people to see your long range hits in MP (perfect stuff for sniper teams). Thing is, there is no such thing in 1.60 release version. So, my question is - WHY?! And, more importantly, can we actually get it? I can understand if it was making some impact on FPS, if it did any, but why not to make long range hits MP-visible only for optics then?

Crying out loud, people. Really. :mad:

You can see impact FX of remote players up to 500m or so. This was broken and has been fixed 4 months ago: http://dev-heaven.net/issues/22500

There should be no difference in that regard between betas and the 1.60 final.

If you feel it important to view them beyond 500m, vote for it; http://dev-heaven.net/issues/12973 crying out loud.

I'm afraid there is a difference. We did test it in 1.60 beta for up to 2km. It was definitely there.

Update the ticket with useful information then; http://dev-heaven.net/issues/12973, crying out loud.

Okay, thank you! Hope our little sniper-spotter dream we did saw in beta could some day come true.

I tested 1.60.87646 beta last night in MP DS and can confirm that it's fixed.

Since I tested alone I only tested up to ~1200 m but I saw the bullet splash just fine. As Sickboy mentioned before 87646 I only saw them up to ~400-500 m.

This is a great fix for "sniper wannabes" like myself, thank you BIS! :)
