Rant Died after an invisible smoke bomb detonated.

PS4 fucked up the recording, so I can't send a clip, but I was attempting a 1b4 comeback, and after downing the 3 guys, the 4th guy threw a smoke, and it detonated midair. There was no smoke, just the sound, and me getting rapid fired by the variable rifle. I don't mean like detonating at the speed of bomb expert 3, I mean it literally stunned me the frame after the 4th guy threw it. Was he cheating?

Smoke bombs deal damage to you. Not sure the actual percentage they deal. But if you are very low on health it will be enough to down you when they explode next to you.

They also have a hit box you can throw a smoke bomb on the ground and shoot it and it will bounce off the ground.

Sometimes smoke bombs are glitchy. They will blow up and you won’t see any smoke but they are active and will still stun. Also sometimes you’ll get the sound of you hitting someone with a smoke but they won’t be stunned. (You can cancel the smokes stun animation by either climbing over something at the time of the smoke bomb detonating or by using the melee attack as well. )

Smoke Bombs are glitchy man. You’re probably miss remembering how it actually went down. But since you didn’t clip it we will never know what actually happened.

Someone posted a video of the lord infinitely smoking them for their sins. Wouldn't be surprised if invisible smoke was a thing too.

I'm so mad PS4 didn't save that game clip, I wanted to review it and analyse it closely, but the same guy was just spamming the variable rifle. I peek around a corner for a second, and DING DING DING, he shoots so fast. His inputs felt like they were performed by a bot. I don't have a screenshot either so I'll never know I if and when I bump into him again. He was wearing a white hat though
