Idiots gona be idiots. But players that know what they are doing, might use it.
I for example have at least one smoke grenade in a squad and I often use smoke artylery in tunesia.
Still I think using smokes should be rewarded.

It should but itâs undoable imo. How would you give points for that and avoid meaningless spam at the same time?
Idk. I dont think it would be worse than HE arty and HE mortar spam.
Yep! Smoke or Willie Pete would be a great addition.
Mortarmen might have a fixed amount of smoke rounds in addition to the 10 normal HE rounds. Perhaps 10+2 or 10+1 to avoid excessive smoke spam.
Mortars seem okay to me been using them for the last few weeks they donât seem to powerful or weak.
Removing something from a game because people âthinkâ its overpowered is a bad way to go about developing a game.
I have come up against mortars and used them quite a lot I donât find them too powerful at the end of the day you only have two mortar men in your squad and sure you can get ammo from an engineer ammo crate but you can only do it once. And unless you have someone spotting infantry for you or unless you do it yourself its not like you can just know where the enemy is 24/7.
This is a world war two shooter there are going to be mortars besides they are kinda situational at best depending on the map. Currently i would say they are in a pretty good place in terms of balance not too good and not too bad.
Besides you can still get two assaulters and an engineer in the mortar squad so if you canât use the mortars effectively you can always rush the point.
No point in calling for stuff to be removed from the game all together because its not going to happen.

Iâm not saying theyâre overpowered (they were before though), it just doesnât contribute to make the game better, imo. I also donât think theyâd actually remove an entire class from the game.
However, I feel itâs important to provide the feedback regardless, so that we donât get more similar content in the future
Its a world war 2 game of course people are going to want to use mortars or course there is going to be mortar squads enlisted reflects what was used during world war 2. Removing the class from the game will solve nothing and just needlessly remove content from the game.
Contribute to making the game better ? its a game about war where you use whatever you can to kill the enemy you saying âit just doesnât contribute to make the game better, imoâ just makes no sense I do not mean any offence.
When used correctly - Walking fire behind a cap zone to keep the cap uncontested and slow down/ kill reinforcements heading to the cap - Mortars are very effective at that
Being on the receiving end of mortars still sucks though as there isnât much of a counter play to them. I donât find them fun to play at all. So the less of them in the game the better - In my opinion.
I think itâs fine as is.
