Re: Flash vs Stun Grenade

Stuns are definitely the way to go, for me.

1. When throwing stuns I never catch any of their affects. I always blind myself with a flash grenade.

2. You throw stuns faster than flashes.

3. Throwing a stun is more accurate opposed to throwing a flash.

4. I like the word stun.

Stun is what I always use.

I think it really depends on the situation, and a lot of the time you don't know what the situation is.  I got flashbanged last night while I was covering a doorway in HQ- but since I knew they were probably coming in immediately, I fired off several bursts and managed to kill 3 enemies while blinded before the last one took me out.  If I hadn't had my gun already on the door, I would never have gotten any of them.  Stun seems to be a shorter effect, and while it slows you down, you can at least aim and shoot.  Being that you really can't know the situation, I think flashbang is better. 

 

That Being said, I tend to carry smoke most of the time, it is very useful for capturing/planting/destroying in domination, HQ, demolition, etc.


Camping?
Anyways, when someone throws smoke, I either throw my Semtex, fire a tube, or shoot a little into it.

 


You would think that since you highlighted the covering hte door part and also the "HQ" part, you would get that I was holding down a "HQ"  That would be the point of the game, to capture and hold the HQ.  Read before you criticize, otherwise you lose all credibility.... 

 

Even better, you are crticizing me for "camping" while you talk about noobtubing.   Classic Fail.


Yeah you didn't say covering an objective in HQ so I thought why would you have your gun on the door if you're not covering anything? To me, just a door is camping. Especially if your gun was already on it.
And yes if I need a noobtube for something like that I'll use it.It's not like I just fire them to get a couple of kills. They were put into the game to be used. At least I don't cover doors with it. And I hardly see how the tube relates to camping.

Re: Flash vs Stun Grenade

Stuns have two major advantages for my playstyle.  First is the hitmarker, let's me know someone is there.  Second is the fact that they have to hit the ground before they go off.  I can throw a stun farther and over obstacles without worrying about an air burst like with a flashbang.  Stun Semtex combo is brutal this way, they can't get away from the grenade in time lol

Flashbangs are meant to be used if before you run into a building. That means throw it, get behind a wall and let it go off. If you get a hit marker, you know what to do.
Don't tell me you just throw a flash and stand there.

Re: Flash vs Stun Grenade

I was in skidrow, playing HQ Pro.  The HQ was in the building behind "C".  I captured the HQ on the far side of the room, after coming in from the outside.  I turned to check the inner stairway coming up from "C" and saw there were at least a few guys coming.  I took aim, got flashbanged, and shot them anyway. 

 

I specifically mentioned HQ in my original post.

 

If that is camping, how would you like me to play that situation?  Next time I will spin in circles till they shoot me, or you noobtube me.  Loser.

Ok just because you were playing HQ doesn't mean you were capturing or holding the objective. That just means you were playing HQ.
And you said you had your gun on the door already and when you got flashed you let off a few bursts. Meaning you just got flashed and blind fired because you know your gun was watching the doorway.
And yeah if I see anyone spinning around not paying attention to the game, I'll go for a humiliation. Maybe a tube headshot. 
Think out your lies before you post them.

If you mean catching people with their pants down, maybe 10-20.
