What is Foliage in Free Fire?

Source ~ Free Fire

Free Fire is a survival game similar to PUBG where people fight each other to win the game. Hiding in foliage helps people to stay hidden and attack as others cannot see them. The foliage has big trees bushes, rocks and more which help players to stay hidden while other players attack them. Now, after this new change in the game, Foliage which was used by the players to hide and attack will also show the opponents their movements. The opponents will be able to see players in the foliage appearing in red colour. This has made surviving in the game tougher than before.
