Suggestion description:
I think flashbang should either disable UI, or remove hearing from affected players. Right now just the screen flash is not much, especially after you added radar so players can still see everything around them through radar
I thought flashes always gave off a screeching sound? Do they not anymore? Also haven't been flashed since update but having radar/HUD while flashed seems to be an odd choice. I like the idea of disabling HUD while flashed.Quote:

hijack this thread for flashbang improvement but the FX for blinded enemies confusing too
no consistency for levels of flashbang (same FX for full white screen blind as FX for partial screen blur blind)
hard to see FX on map with visual fog (try see if someones flashed on Castle, very difficult)
recently saw admin rocket with F rocket as projectile. can add these F’s above flash status indicator for flash level? 3 F = full flash, 2F = half flash, 1 = quick flash?
think flash should only disable radar instead of entire HUD, hiding HP/AP only make these more annoying to play against (especially if i using flashbang to blind people :o.o)
Glad you mentioned it. Every time I see that someone is flashed I'll try to attack. But only to be met with a fully competent player shooting back at me. Very misleading.Quote:

Although Sunruis suggestion might be easier to add.
In the good old days it played a part of a song.Quote:

Flashes are already OP. You shouldn't know how flashed an enemy is. That seems like it just removes counterplay to me.
I know back in ijji days if you got flashed it would give off a screeching/ear piercing sound to muffle the rest of the environmental noise. I know in FGunZ that people complained about the flashes playing the background music when flashed. I think personally the original sound effects should be added back in (the screech)Quote:

I'm not sure how the sound works currently, but players were complaining about the high pitched screeching sound before.
It'd probably be best if we could just lower the volume of that sound, or reduce all sounds a player hears when flashed based on how flashed they are...
I thought players were complaining about the random background music that would blast when they were flashed? I do recall a few mentions of the screech. I agree on lowering the screech sound. That or add a echo/muffle to the surrounding sounds rather than just lower them like you suggested. That way it still somewhat can distort gameplay (as flashes are intended to do so) so that the player can't just easily turn the volume up and continue to soundplay to come out of the situation safe.Quote:
