What's with the tracer rounds?

I know it’s been a while, but come on why does the graphics engine have to overwork itself everytime someone pulls the trigger. We have the annoying yellow screen flash coupled with a fire direction notification on screen and then tracer ammunition. In previous halo games only plasma, sniper or heavy weapons fired tracer ammunition. I don’t appreciate my location being telegraphed every time I fire any weapon like an AR etc. Although it does help me rage when I see the rounds clip through a wall. But honestly why do we have tracer rounds in every gun? and why can’t this be removed in custom etc.

Umm… Every Halo game has always had tracers for every weapon.

Not in the manner of brilliant yellow streaks like I am firing a laser rather than a firearm. A faint black dot that vanishes in a second is a world apart from tracer.

Yeah, Halo games have always had more than a faint black dot. Bungie’s Halo games had yellow streaks as well, especially Halo 1-3.

Aye. I’m pretty sure you’re right.
