Before I put a thread up in the request section, I'd like to see how the community would take such an addition. I definitely know that my nova knife alt would very much appreciate this when taking on whole squads. |

I'm against this... I use knives too, but I get my knife kills by camping objectives, stalking people, and flanking groups. If you want to cause panic, toss a flux grenade. lol |

Why would you want flashbangs when tackling becomes a thing when we eventually get EWAR active modules and equipment?

Actually nevermind about this idea. It would actually cause more harm than good to most people. I could see how heated the forums would be if they did add them. |

Being color blind... and using the MAG flashbangs as an example I'm all for it.
However, as the flashbang effect faded I could see MUCH better than normal, and (according to my squaddies) infinitely better than they could. I'd frequently flashbang a room and hang by the outside so I'd only be slightly affected. At that point, it was a killing spree.
However, they're stupidly annoying. No one wants that. And before you ask, no to poison gas as well. |

Against it why?
Because every other shooter has been able to implement them flawlessly but our Dust Devs are too Incompetent to balance it properly?
Because your scared of something new that could add more depth to the game?
Because flash bangs aren't something space mercs would have a thousand years into the future right? |

As cool as flash bangs are, in every game that has it I absolutely hate being affected by it. It is far more annoying on that end then it is fun on the other end, so I say no.
Now what I would like on the other hand is smoke grenades accompanied with a heat vision equipment slot. That would be really fun for all those nova knivers. |

FLASH BANGS!!!! god the instant end to meat grinders AWESOME. can you imagine you just see your team trowing clones out clones trying to get a point, go **** it, suicide a flash bang right in the middle of the other team and your team just stomps em.
I mean defense is dead in this game it never succeeds unless the team defending is so OP they are gonna red line the other guys anyways, so ever major defensive effort just turns into a pointless meat grinder, so why not add something to **** over the wolf pack. This could be a major game changer, or it could turn into another snowball fest. |

Fully in support of this idea, so many other games have flashbangs and they arent horrible game breaking items Dont listen to the EVE players, we all know they are the ones calling for the most nerfs and limitations since they cant seem to get by on their own playing ability |

don't Dropsuits have sensors that make flashbangs useless, as they're not actually using their eyes to "see"? |

Good Point. How about we call them sensor-jamming grenades then.
I, for one, support the idea. but it needs to be done delicately. Currently Dust has no CC mechanics at all. Soon we will have the webifier, and I don't think I'd like Dust to devolve in to a CC fest.

I hated MAG flashbangs so much I could throw one in a room put 2-3 walls between me and it even put my back to said wall and they would still get me from time to time.
The poison gas grenade however with the skill for reducing damage from them they were fun on objectives throw one in a crowded room run in after it with shotgun = profit lol. |

That would be a nice addition too! I'm all for creating environmental situations where you have an adherent advantage over the enemy.

I suppose its a good idea and couldn't hurt really, And i have to agree that flux grenades are a great enemy terror weapon but i suppose you could make a flux grenade varient that strips sheilds gives a tempory blinding effect great against infantary and those pesky lav's that wanna run you over, And useless against tank armour i.e the blinding effect. |
