How peoples see though smoke?

[ПивнойКолясочник]

80% of all players I encounters can see through my smokes without thermal vision. HOW is this possible?

[Ersatz]

I think detection devices penetrate it too.

Because it doesn't render the game one everyone's computer, yet another bug which hasn't been fixed since season 1.

I don't see. I just spam R2 with the spear while in the smoke and people die 🤷🏻‍♂️

And even if you weren't pinged in that moment, there's a bug where if you die immediately after being pinged, you still show up as pinged the whole rest of the match to the player who pinged you. Best to just assume you can be seen at all times.

smokes in the finals arent like cs where its volumetric (unfortunately). its easier to see people inside the smoke's radius when you are outside of the smoke, than it is to see people outside the radius of the smoke when you are inside the smoke. if that makes sense.
Edit: additionally, its better to play on the opposite side of the point where the smoke landed, that is the center of the smokes "circle". throwing a second smoke between you and the enemy is also quite useful if you plan to move around a lot while engaging, wouldnt recommend spending the time to throw a second smoke while you are being engaged though.

its smoke ,not a force field, same with invisible, people dont just disappear , just keep shooting and guess where they moving 9/10 will still get them.

Thermal vision, healthbars, hit marker feedback.

While I doubt this is the case here, I do want to see this bug addressed. I've been on both sides of it, and it's dumb. It basically gives an entire team "wallhacks" and they can see your every movement indefinitely, even after you die and respawn.
