It’s too easy and feels cheating if you just direct MG fire into the smoke and watch for hit markers to adjust your aim based on that. Would be much more challenging and fair to kill someone behind walls and inside smoke if those markers are not displayed. I’m not against kill markers, just hit markers.
Similar to another request regarding tank markers in smoke, but I’d like to have it for infantry.

the problem is low res gaming or dialing down the resolution not because of bad internet or bad pc but to gain an advantage, i have heard it is insanely common in warthunder and world of tanks

For me Enlisted is a causal game so I don’t really care how others kill their eyesights to be more competitive. I’m fine at Rank 3-8 in the final score as long as I have fun. And when I start hunting for hit markers in the smoke to kill the enemy, then feel bad because if it, I’m not having enough fun…
ehh could take it or leave it, I get the feeling (imo I don’t feel bad at all) but at the same time not everyone knows that large enough calibers can penn thin walls. If you get no feedback with thin walls it hides that mechanic. With smoke, my issue is that if someone is near the edges of smoke(visible yet still in smoke) you get no feedback on any of your hits which does not feel good. I would rather keep feedback consistent then try to alter it to one scenario.
You’re probably right with the smoke corner cases, they could be confusing when the hit marker is missing yet part of the enemy is visible.
For the walls I don’t like the fact that I can be shot through walls with zero effort by pro players so I’m absolutely wiling to stay alive longer by making their job harder. Which means such helpful markers could remain for people below a given rank, but if you’re a seasoned warrior you don’t need it any more - make it more and more transparent until it disappears.
It feels like an Intellectual cheating. Pls don’t rob me of it.
It’s so fascinating how low number of players are taking advantage of this.
Wow
3 years since that suggestion
we just keep getting older and older XD
The problem is that often those players are taking advantage of it who need it the least, and steamroll anyway. It’s not taking away the intellectual challenge, just making it even more challenging. The skulls would appear the same way. 
…Based on the comments it’s not going to happen anyway, as part of the playerbase could get angry about it and it would be better if devs focused on “safe” development, they often hit the hornet’s nest even with those.
what about shooting through bushes? also maybe it can be for vehicles instead of troops since tanks can spam their MG though anything that the game lets it
That’s super hard to code properly, smoke and wall see-through visibility is a bit easier to my eyes.
