I just flashed myself outside (on bridge) and it lasted for 20 seconds and that counts half a second extra in the beginning and the fade-in time so the actual time is around 15 seconds. That's not much in a combat situation when you throw a flashbang in a room to disable hostile forces.

How about this topic ender:
Code a modification (or find someone to do it) to prove it's possible then start a vote here and get a majority yes (not 60/40) and we'll gladly implement it. Until then, nothing's going to happen.

1st of all i have to apologize that i didnt read this whole topic and last messages but i have to say i have nothing against how long we are blind and from how long distance the flashes are effecting us but i HATE to listen that noise that comes if nade / flash blows near of me...never counted any time but we're pretty much half deaf for at least 1-2 mins and it sucks especially in the maps where u need to hear steps etc.

But im really thankful AA is still alive and what ive seen.more and more ppl are coming back to this game..so good job aa25 team.

ps. edit.

That noise didnt last that long in 2.8.5...

It's amusing to see people's inability to guess time elapsed. I'll put money down that it's not longer than 30 seconds. The screen fade (I would bet that the noise lasts as long) is only about 20 seconds.

They dumbed things down for gameplay, not for realism.

I agree a bit with everybody here.
Power of flash is ok, but it shold be weaker if u don't face it ...
And about the 203 ear pain, I also agree, in my view it lasts much too long, even when the 203 isn't that close ... But that ain't big problems that make it impossible to play so actually no real problem

lol oh my, flashbangs! that brings back memories!

I recall the first time I got flashed ingame, The whole screen turned black and that noise came, I got so scared that my computer may had gotten hacked that I unplugged the power cord from the wall lool!
I had no idea what a flashbang was.

Guess how embarassed i felt, when I found that its actually something which happens ingame lol.

actuallly I can see where raw is coming from when he mentioned the shell shocked noise that overcomes the speakers from nades nearby that dont actually hurt you, I think its buggy as I've had the noise carry on for a very long time after the grenade has went off and other times the sound has lasted for no time at all.

U got me right.
Im talking about that noise that comes if the nade blows near of u...
and again..it doesnt matter in outdoor maps but like in WC its all about listening what enemy is doing and the sounds are everything in those maps.

I mean is there any nerd that could change that or is it even possible since the original dev's aint helping us anymore.
(I dont kno how much the 25assist group can do)

Again, that's the point of a flashbang... to completely disorient the person it's intended for, audio AND visual. I've already made my point in this thread. Anybody is welcome to rip into the AA files with UTPT and create a mod to alter flashbang time but keep in mind that you'll have to create a poll and have the majority of users want that mod installed by default.

I agree, flash nades are way too annoying, we should have more cutier pink fancy pringles-like tubes that explode with a "bloop!" subtle noise leaving a flavour of strawberries in the air. That, that would fit.

Koden, you're obligated to buy me some pringles now that you've mentioned them.

It's ok, I don't like sour cream and onion anyway.

Barbecue is definitely the best flavor.

Skrewy just likes the way it smells as he shoves it up his arse.

i would too like flashes to be more like they are in 2.8.5. currently they are too strong, they blind you even if you're not facing them and they muzzle your sound even when thrown in the other room that is separated by a wall. they are also too effective outdoors and people are starting to ran around with flashes like they did 2 years ago...
