As noted by GamesRadar, a redditor named Jagsfootball51 posted a video on the r//battlefield2042 subreddit where they were able to negate the effects of a botās smoke grenade by simply opening the Collections tab in the gameās menu.

This glitch comes hot on the heels of other glitchy discoveries in Battlefield 2042. Since releasing on November 19, the game hasnāt caught a break. Halo Infiniteās surprise release of its multiplayer mode certainly hasnāt helped 2042ās staying power with players, and itās currently the worst-reviewed game on Steam. In fact, thereās along list of bugs on Resetera if bullet points donāt give you trypophobia. Kotaku previously reported on one glitch that allowed players to utilize the hollow centers of skyscrapers as hideyholes for their helicopters because DICE had apparently forgotten to add collision to them.
Although the developer plans to update the game across all platforms in December, one canāt help but feel like DICE should have left Battlefield 2042 in the game development oven a little longer to work out all these kinks rather than throwing on some seasoning in the form a post-launch update served on a cold plate to absent-minded gamers who may be eyeing what other games are being released this holiday season. Sorry, I still have Thanksgiving on the brain.
