Someone care to genuinely explain to me the physics behind Bangalore smoke?

Greetings.

What I mean is this: Every time I either have a Bangalore on my team or my enemy is a Bangalore, the most common issue is that I literally can't even see my enemies faintly while my enemies seem to be perfectly able to hit me with weapons like Spitfire, Flatline or R-301, as it can be heard by the gunfire. And as far as I'm aware, neither of these 3 have digital threat optics. So how come my enemies can see me perfectly while I have zero ways of determining my enemy location inside the smoke? I doubt enemies take wild guesses of my location and always hit me right where I am.

    "Same. Sometimes I can't see jack in the smoke but people hit me like it not even effecting them."

    Sorry, too many caffeinated beverages, methinks.

    @Lord_Scorpion34Can you stop mentioning him? He already experienced enough floating on the ocean after the titanic sank! LOL JK!

    On the other hand, I hate Bang's smoke especially in the hands of a noob Bang user. Their instinct is to use the smoke on themselves rather than smoking the enemies firing at us.

    @Cheese9Man Lolz Sharko knows that. He was referring to the actual ‘name’ jack as a joke of naming & shaming.

    @Lord_Scorpion34 Jeez, you guys are so drunk that even I figured what he meant upon reading it without him explaining it. Too much of a niche joke to chuckle but witty nonetheless.

    @Cheese9Man I do both depending on the situation & location of the enemy in relation to me. One time in KC near that little area between conduit & old Relay, there was a squad just chillin up on a cliff trying to snipe everyone. I didn't have a decent scope or enough ammo to waste trying to kill them so I just farmed damage off them shooting smoke at them every so often lol.
  • @Peri_Longbow_plz Sometimes you can see a person's silhouette in the smoke. Or you bloodhound scan. Or depending on the location I will fire where I expect the person to be hiding.
