Stock sucks
 

Stock servers suck ... They turn this game into quake! I hate em. Everyone running around the battlefield out in the open, not using cover (what the hell are those smoke nades for anyway), shooting like a bunch of idiots on coke. PLEASE some one put up a realism server !!!!!

I think the smoke nades are pretty useless anyway. If you;re using them for cover the smoke takes too long to billow out so you can actually use it for cover. All it does is mark your position so the enemy can ram a mobile mg-42 up your ass when you try and leg it past the smoke.

unless someone makes a mod where they emit more smoke they're only useful for pissing off snipers

i found one server yesterday that seems to get good pings for me, fast run is off and realism is on (so says the filter)

that's for sure.
I like the AA smoke grenade better.
they actually cover a good volume and are USEFUL!

My thoughts exactly. biggrin:

My only dislike for the smoke nade is that it has a smoke trail. Even today's smoke grenade, which is STILL the M-18, dosen't do this. Pull the pin, release the spoon, throw. It takes 3 - 5 seconds to emit the smoke. They defineatly mark your position in the game though, with the trail when you throw it.

I think Ktog's are better. biggrin:

You could try cooking it off first before you throw. Also in team mode if you have an open area, if everyone uses there smoke, cover each other to cross danager areas. Joe I think you know what I mean. Screen your move.

Agreed! mad:

Btw, does anyone know if Crow King has plans to release CKR with support for Spearhead?

Hehe, I remember Ktog's smoke nades. Thing was that it caused a lot of loss framerate on my system, so I took it out.

a couple weeks ago he said he would work on one when spearhead came out, so hopefully in a few weeks we'll have one.

strangely enough the spearhead smoke grenades don't do anything to my FPS, but the ones in OFP do hell to it, which might be because they're REALISTIC!

Too sweeeet!!!!!! happy:

I like the nades in SH. Thing is, I DONT think they are really meant for someone to lob them CLEAR across the map spewing butt-gas in a nice "follow-me" line. The times when I have seen them be effective, is when they are tossed in close quarters, and someone arises like BATMAN to casue some major hellfire and brimstone.

It was cool last night when I saw green, red, and yellow smoke bombs going off in about the same place, all of the sudden Jimi Hendrix stepped out and started playing the National Athem....... hmmm I thought those where normal mushrooms on my steak.
