The New Sniper Bullet Trail Mechanic: With the new changes youre now unable to snipe at any range besides the extremes super up close or super far away due to trail pulling way to much attention if you fire at a group containing more than 2 people. You fire and kill one or god forbid you miss a shot and the 20-30 people in the surrounding area who happened to see the trail are now pointing at your skull. It is truly unfun to use bolts now as you get punished for simply firing your weapon and having youre location given away with a gps like line. Personally im fine with the bullet sound changes and the glint changes to the 4x scopes but those require at least some sort of awareness out of the player to locate you to target you, with the smoke trail every time you fire youre telling all the players in the area hey look where i am. here are my suggestions to changes 1. make it so like an attachment like a silencer or something gets rid of the trail, or 2. greatly shorten the duration of trail to like a fraction of a second 0.1~0.25 secs requiring players to at least have some awareness to be able to use the line to track you down, or 3. remove it altogether tbh lately it seems like some dev has something against specifically bolt snipers when dmrs will eventually replace them and cause the "same issue"
