Smoke grenades are complete joke anyway. They cannot even cover 1x1 meters square.

Tank’s smoke shells are like 1000% more effective.

That’s also another reason why we need attacker slash defender loadout Defense and attacker loadout - English speaking section / Suggestions - Enlisted

Smoke grenades, tank smoke launchers and smoke dispencers are in general very bad. (Though yesterday one saved me. First time since they were implemented.)

Use them to improve your morale but don’t expect more.

If I recall correctly, smoke grenade was nerfed since the Heavy Caliber update dropped.

well they still have their uses when youre attacking you need some kind of cover so that you can push without getting mowed down

Only arty smoke screen is somewhat good but you can be sure that NO ONE will use them.

Nah, smoke shells from tank can cover huge area.

The smoke grenades are really only good for blocking a doorway or window worth of vision. Which, if more people were actually setting up (H)MG nests and using them, a well placed smoke could completely blind them.
However, since the large majority of this game is currently run and gun, they really aren’t worth taking.

The tank smoke SHELL is completely worth it. The tank smoke grenades are pretty much worthless too currently.

The smoke mortar shells actually hold a unique usage to me. Instead of firing a bunch of HE at once, I alternate between the smoke and HE mortar shells when hitting a frequented area. As many enemies just assume its smoke thats raining down, and they try to run through it. I often end up with about 60 mortar kills a game by doing this.

When they added smoke to tanks and disabled tank marker through smoke is when they nerfed smoke. Yet it was weak before and they nerfed it more.

This.

I’d love to have a squad lineup for attacking and one for defending. When I match, I get the squad lineup I want for the mission.

Happens to me at random with many smoke shells. Since smoke is so seldom used, but adds quality to strategic gameplay, it should be pumping out a large plumes of smoke for 1-1.5 minutes. Rather than 15-25 sec or whatever it is.
