What are your thoughts on having realistic smoke trail times in game? Right now, the smoke trails from missile and flares disappear after a few seconds, but I think it could be interesting if this was changed to be more realistic. If the smoke trails lasted like a minute, plane and SAM players would have to be much more careful and strategic when launching their missiles to avoid giving away their positions, and could add more dynamic gameplay, especially for the new aa systems, who would feel more enticed to move and not camp one spot for the whole game (especially if bigger maps get added). This addition could be useful in both air and ground modes, but I’d say it would be really cool to see in ground RB. For spaa’s, as said before, the conspicuous smoke trails would make strategically moving around more rewarding, and for CAS, it would mean bigger consequences for slinging off a ton of missiles. Tanks and SAMs would look to the sky, and see the recent smoke trails of AAMs, AGMs and flares, and know to stay alert. This would also make smokeless missiles much better, as this was the reason they were developed IRL. Thoughts?
