I would say that they shouldn't be as heavy as they are. Smoke doesn't weigh THAT much lol  :rolleyes:

But at the same time, they probably shouldn't be buffed or given any reason for players to use them more than they do already, simply because they can cause a lot of lag and crash some people's game.

If they can't be good for anything else, they should be able to crash people's games.

Just give it knockdown or something, since if they made the smoke larger people would just turn of partical effects.

C-rpg will not be nerfing or buffing because you refuse to use teamwork or tactics.  Have a good day sir

Smokebombs used to produce even less smoke before I made this thread.

Particle effects use a lot of resources, so lots of smoke bombs at the same time = bad/old computers going "fuck diz sheet!" and crashes.

Smoke Bombas are nice tactical weapons!
 
Just a classical situation:

The game begins, the teams begin to move
the whole team is about to cross a narrow alley to get to a more favorable position
enemy archers prepare to pepper the alley
before the alley is crossed 3-4 friendly guys throw their bombs, the smoke screen gives cover for a few precious seconds for the rest of the team to follow, enemy archers are irritated and cant aim properly

usability of smoke bombs depends on map, but sad they cause many  :twisted: crashes though

Narrow alley? Archers wouldn't need to aim if the whole enemy team is in a narrow alley.  :rolleyes:

I enjoy them as they are now. 0 slot is the best thing about them can bring them with any ninja gear set up pretty much.

Less weight would be amazing, but my ninja character is fine with how they are, gives a good reason not to bring them every round sometimes sacrificing speed for secret smoke screen aha.


Also don't mind that others can turn particle effects off and not see them, I keep mine on so it's still cool on my side lol.

I would use them if they weren't so damn heavy.

I don't care about slots. Their weight makes them pointless for a ninja to use, since at 5 weight they make you slow as fuck.

Make them 1 weight and you've got a deal, since people can turn off particles on their clients and won't see the smoke anyway - thus rendering them a really fucking heavy stone.
