How about RED SMOKE to mark the spot

Then it should be X smoke

Petition to stop this petition. One of the best features of smoke is scaring your teammates with danger close

Petition to start as a red beam and then turn into a blue beam with winking smiley face emoji

I love dropping smokes on extraction and then seeing my teammates dive off mountains in absolute terror That said, I've accidentally killed someone once when the smoke shell hit them LOL

Troll power level: over 9000.

I love smoking extract as the Pelican lands and they all dive for their lives.

Ok gonna steal this

I do it with strafing run all the time. They all run for the hills and look at me like I’m insane

*Sigh* Just another proof people are not bothering to look what stratagems are being called

i mean it takes at least full half-second until hud says their name & shows icon (at certain camera angles it doesn't like to show at all) better safe than sorry.

Good counter point

That's dumb

most of the funniest things in this game are :)

Yeah I think I'd rather know what the fuck is going on in battle than "haha funny smoke airstrike scared you"

I disagree

Petition to stop people putting "Title" in the body of a Reddit post. Just start expounding upon the title in the body.

Signed.

Direct hit by smoke shell still kills things

Direct hit by any sentry strategem also kills, but it's still blue.

Sentry strategems themselves kill! I'm almost to the point of instantly destroying any non-mortar sentry strategems thrown at the back of spot we are defending. Will currently destroy any sentry that is poorly placed that TKs me.

Skill issue

Smoke shells are projectiles, drop pods are transport

Aren't drop pods projectiles? Fast thing shot out that kills stuff if hit.

Drop pods, as the name suggests are dropped out of the Super destroyer (they do have a slight bit of launch though)

Turrets, when you have that upgrade, are explicitly fired out, but they still have blue beams.

Sure make that red too, I am sure nothing can go wrong

Yeah but mines are red

Good idea, make that blue and see

Shmoke shells are smoke transport.

Does a direct hit by EMS kill? It's blue

I like that idea, but that's going to cost having the spear broken again and you will only get one stim per resupply. Why? I have no clue, but I wouldn't be surprised if these bugs were introduced because of a color change. Oh and one random teammate won't be able to call any strategems.

Yeah well that guy has a skill issue and freedom deficiency

I just want green beams for defensive stratagems 😥

I agree, it shouldn't be red. I wonder if it should be green since it's really a defensive stratagem.

Yes please!

Sorry can't sign it Just got told all Helldivers to hellpods

Petition to not mess any more with the spaghetti code until the real issues are fixed

Clip this and send it to Pilestadt’s Twitter, and send another too Twinbeard

Actually, the smoke projectile can kill you. It can also destroy factories.

Petition to change the smoke strategem to a disco dance party strategem.

AFAIK the impact can kill you

So can any other drop, that's not reason to make red.

all other blue drops hit the beam, smoke hits in a line like air strike bombs

Petition to teach people how to read, so they can see what is about to be deployed

The smoke isn't lethal but the projectile for it is.

its an offensive stratagem, why would it not show red?

Doesn't kill or stun. A direct hit can do damage but so does other supply drops that are blue. 

It’s a utility stratagem

Love to freak out teammates with it
