Duration is too short to be useful it seems like. If you throw one the person will know you have to charge in like the next few seconds to get any use from it so they will throw grenades or spam bullets into it. Only use would be as a distraction.

Well the primary tactic of deploying smoke grenade (G) if you need to move from cover A to B and the enemy is at C... To do a flanking maneuver.

Would be nice if we had colored Smoke in order to visually mark an area for aircraft...

...Don't know how many times I've wanted to flag down a passing Gal that was only half full at best...

THAT. IS A GREAT. IDEA.

Why didn't I think of that? And while we're at it, star clusters and parachute flares.

Seriously, posting this to PS2 forums now.

Maybe it was only you who saw the smoke before
Planetside 2 has not been using your graphics card, so that doesn't matter. I haven't heard if it is even doing it yet.

If they lasted 2 seconds longer before dissipating they would be 10x more useful.

That make no sense what so ever what you just wrote. In no way can you enturpet what I wrote as Planetside 2 have used my FX card. You're just trolling and a bad attempt it was too Because I really don't think you have the IQ of a pig...
