Is there a way to close your eyes against a flash grenade, or did I dream it ?

It's me, I know it's me, it's like a compulsive disorder I have.

I can't throw a flash without blinding me or my team. IT doesn't matter what or where I throw it it happens every time.

 I've tried to unbind the key but I have an overwhelming compulsion to buy one so I end up with one everytime. :doh:

I don't think you can shut your eyes - I tend to look the other way 180° which helps but I still get a little blinded.

PEN
/needs flash counselling.

The throwing arc is so different to 1.3 thru to CZ (which were all the same IIRC)

I often get caught out with a rebound off a corner or light fitting etc.

on cz I could get a smoke in the sniper window @ sadako1 (that's lost a lot of you:narnar:)...but on css it very rarely goes in...I suppose it's more realistic:g:

BTW Tonight I saw someone (snokio?) shoot an HE grenade out of mid-air, back the way it'd come....amazing:blink:

on reflection, it may've been freestyler..

whoever it was, realised they had done it and remarked about it in chat.

it was on office, from the storeroom IIRC

I wish I could claim it was me!! but unless I have forgotten (very much doubt it, cause you'll probably never hear the end of it :rolleyes: ), It was not me :crying: (I'm not that good :()  

I for one don't like flashes at all! :angry: :ranting2:  <--- maybe I should start a campaign :narnar:

Investigations reveal it was a FB vs 'nade.  Someone lobbed the 'nade at the same time as his flash, they collided midair and returned to their respective lobbers...

Wern't you the guy that talked about the tactics for matches and such?
Nades all the way baby!
Smokes, flashes and nades are much more effective during matches so DO use them when you play on MH and Boomer!

i don't use flashed that often when teams are 6vs6 or more .
If i throw one i often blind one but get picked of by another.
(i still have em in case most people died)

With 5 vs 5 that chance is alot smaller, though sometimes those flashes bounce back indeed.
Anyways lets ban em when there are 12 or more people on the server :P

Post by: T-Bag on May 18, 2008, 10:24:26 PM
Yeah, F10 does help, I prefer to use it while defusing the bomb though. It's a good all round move.
