Should the commander's upgrade of the obersoldatens be able to shoot through smoke, i think the infrared Stg44 it's underpowered because of it's very situational moments

The irony there is that most smoke is generated via phosphorus which blocks infrared radiation.

From a gameplay perspective, no. Infrared Obers are good enough as it is.

In reality it was a defensive weapon lugged up to trenches and defensive positions to increase visibility at night. It was too heavy for offensive use.

I would like to see it buff LoS like pyro Tommy, be given long range DPS boost but come with same movement penalty Heavy sappers get

Smoke makes no sense at all

A) I think infrared actually cannot see through some chemical smokes like WP (I know gas grenade isn't a WP smoke)

B) IR STGs are incredibly good because they negate a large part of cover bonuses. Unless your opponents are A-move blobbing all the time over open ground, they're really useful.
