General Zod 1118 Posted May 8, 2023 Hi Title says it all, smoke grenades starts to smoke before you can throw them which makes it impossible to use them without giving away your position. They should have the same delay as frag and stun grenades. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Former Echo Trooper 8 Posted May 10, 2023 Unfortunately the current smoke grenades in the game are almost true to life. The fuse in a smoke grenade ignites as soon as the spoon is released. That being said, the spoon should not be released while still in your hand but at the moment of throw. That part should be corrected. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok but what isn't true to life is the spasticated way of throwing a grenade in dayz In real life I can hold a grenade is mostly ready to throw position while removing the pin which means I can throw one almost instantly Mean while throwing a grenade in dayz Hold the grenade in a hand by your hips Raise the hands and unpin the grenade Lower the hands AGAIN while holding the now unpinned grenade (it starts to smoke now) Get into a throwing stance (by that time the grenade is already smoking full blast) Hold the throw button to load up Release to throw. Since we definitely won't get the way we throw the grenade changed they need to change the delay on it starting to release the smoke. There is a reason smoke grenades are almost never used in this game. Edited May 10, 2023 by General Zod 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Former Echo Trooper 8 Posted May 22, 2023 I’m not disagreeing with you. The throw animations definitely need fixed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I doubt we'll get a throw animation that will be as quick as a two second fuse so the longer fuse is easier solution to this problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
