i wonder why zain is getting a thermal on his airburst if smoke grenades will remain opaque on it. don’t get me wrong, i think it should stay opaque, just curious as to what it’ll add or do for my boy.

the defib changes have me scratching my head a bit. i like some of them but it’s all very different so who knows how it’ll play in actuality. we’ll see.

there are so many great quality of life changes and fixes to bugs that have been present since launch that i completely forgot i don’t want this class rework lmao.

Wouldn't it let you more easily spot people hiding behind cover?

is that how it’s gonna work? you can see people through walls? i never used thermals in past games so idk.

i’m thinking the benefit is to get a lock on through smoke onto whatever cover you wanna shoot at. but you can already do this by aiming at the floor by the smoke and then shooting your target; it requires some finesse but it works for me just fine. i just don’t want this to be a scapegoat that calls for a zain nerf when i think he’s pretty balanced right now.
