They still work pretty well. Plus they have since added a lot of other options for smoke too.
This is pretty much exactly same with fortifications & tanks, everyone can have them and they aint exactly a rarity in field.
What comes to tanks it isnt exactly a hard task to kill with tank either and generally tanks are only easy as you let it be to kill it.
Aka nothing stops you defending your friendly tanks as infantry but as we know no one does that.
So generally, for that exact reason any “team effort” requiring fortification etc is a no from me.
I tell you a secret molotov and withe phosphorus granade kill a tank better than the expo pack and dont forget the remote TNT, tank mine ecc…
Now tell me wy someone with a tank leave his safe camping zone knowing that the moment he reach the combat zone he get burned to death, because there are no more expo pack? Lol
And for the rest
A buff on fortifications HP is not bad suggestions either but this is an arcade game there is no need of make fortifications bulding or disassembling a “team effort”
Molotovs, Phosphorous, and frags. All are extremely effective against infantry, and will quickly eliminate an escort squad.
How about giving extra points for breaking fortifications with a tank? Not only that, but also there will be players that jump into a tank with the express purpose of breaking through fields of barbwire, and other sandbagged areas.
So are bullets of escort squad against anyone whos trying to throw above mentioned stuff.
It takes far less time to pop around a corner and toss a grenade than it takes to sight in and shoot that thrower.
then preaim the corners where the enemy is coming from aint exactly rocket science.
That could be 20+ different locations! Unless you have reason to believe that one specific location is where they will pop up, that is extremely unlikely.
Then dont drive the tank anywhere where your guarding infantry havent secured the place.
Problem solved.
Frags are awful against inf. lol
You and I must be playing ENTIRELY different games. Frags wipe out TONS of infantry.
Frags have worse range than nuke packs iirc. You can kill more and tanks with TNT. Frags only have better throw range for worse aoe range.
