The smoke has ( well, had, in closed beta ) actually pretty small coverage, takes a little while to actually start blocking the view so that you’re not able to see through it and doesn’t even last that long before it starts disappearing again. The actual window for nosmoke hack action was in reality very small, talking like 5-7 seconds. Not to mention the IR goggles used to cast bright red light through the smoke giving away your position, however I’m not sure if this feature was already removed in later beta phases.

He might kill Phantom out of his invisibility cape(yes,the Harry Potter reference :I) and make him cry in the corner while he scan the walls on heat from characters :I

Do you know what a wallhack is and how it works? Red-Eye can’t see people behind walls.

There’s a difference between a 30+ sec cooldown utility grenade and a 6 sec cooldown body harvest toool.

I believe he’s referring to the spotting of enemies that shows through walls, just like the heart beat sensor.

Oh wow, good to know. yeah the 25s CD per smoke grenade seems a little long, but I’m guessing this is just to prevent smoke spam. Apparently ppl got mad about people playing Red Eye (who don’t know how to use him) and smoking up everything so even friendlies dont know wtf to do.

Uh he doesn’t have wall hacks, he can only see though smoke and mark people by looking at them. If I remember correctly, been a while, he has to be using his ability for the mark to stay. The instant he stops using his ability enemies aren’t marked anymore.
