Throwing of smoke underwater

[Gutsnav 13]

Does anyone else think we should be able to throw smoke grenades underwater? Why or why not? Would they do this in real life? I am thinking this would be useful if you needed a quick extraction or needed to mark a spot for a helicopter to drop an SDV or something.

Throwing of stuff underwater was patched out during the Alpha without any explanation why. You could throw grenades, smoke shells and more importantly, chemlights.

not sure how a smoke grenade would work under water in RL, surely it would just be alot of smoke bubbles heading for the surface, some kind of ink grenade might work though, abit like an octopus's defense

I can understand not throwing grenades (they wouldn't go far at all), but why have an underwater smoke effect without an ability to throw it? Same with chemlights.

That video pretty much explains how they have it in game. You can throw a smoke nade into the water, and it will do that. You cannot however, drop one while in the water, so GG.
