Smokes

[jsh]

Is there anyway we could get them added back to ifrits? A lot of the population enjoys fighting at the moment and I thing the majority would appreciate it. I understand there is more to the server than just pvp but in this current moment I think having no smokes is pretty depressing for us kids that don't like posting up at rocks just waiting for someone to peak. Appreciate all the work the devs and staff do for the server. Y'all are busy and have a lot on your plate I'm sure but wanted to see if there was a plan to add them back ever.

Hot take but no smokes in Frits has been fun, people don’t canister camp like heathens

Also I think there’s an arma glitch right now with smokes in general. The other day I threw a hand smoke and the whole server damn near shit the bed

What specific situations are more enjoyable? I'm just thinking how if you are fighting a group that you outnumber it's probably an advantage not having smoke. When smaller groups (1-3) fight larger groups (4+ nowadays) it's aids not having smokes. The arma smokes need to be server side to fix the lag I believe but I'm probably over simplifying it and hand smokes have always cause fps drops.

Pushing Feds for me has been more enjoyable, I also feel like I can get away with using a hunter if someone else is in a frit. Forces people to use cover rather than conceal themselves in smoke. But yeah I’m not sure what the issue is with them right now.

Defending is too easy. Smokes would incentivize pushing cartels, fed events, dom caps, etc. PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

would rather get killed by someone sitting on a canister than by someone headglitching a rock OR in the back

make sure to make the smokes server side for performance

Smokes need to come back, head glitches are on the rise and we need to stop this madness ASAP only way is by adding server sided smokes! +1

I'd be down to see 1 smoke/Ifrit with a potential for a 2nd with the Infamy perk. As much as I hate smokes, there have definitely been times recently where I've wished I had them.
