Not entirely sure if this has been posted yet. But will you be doing flashes like 1.6, in the sense that you can still see your scoreboard whilst flashed?

I was about to ask this, I also wouldn't mind being able to see death notices while flashed.

While specing, I'm guessing that if you get flashed and switch to another player, the flash won't carry over like in source?

2 good points ^

& I know there's already been a topic about this, but if anyone wouldn't mind telling me if there will be flash kills(1hp) included or not that would be appreciated :)

I don't think they've come to a conclusion about that. I'm guessing they'll be testing it sometime.

If the hitboxes for the nades are 1unit like in 1.6, then it would be kinda pointless.

i think they put the spec flash in source to prevent ghosting, you know people specing and telling you where to go to avoid enemies or when an enemy is infront of you so you can shoot him etc.

It would be very exciting to see if you have killed anyone while flashed ^^ It would be like- "Flashed, spraying. Omg a kill, omg another one AND THE THIRD!!!... that was sick!" =D

God, you people on these forums have the worst ideas.

Stick with flashes either like 1.6 or source, don't change it, don't be gay. Being able to see death notices while flashed is stupid, being able to see hud is pointless and just dumb.

definitely don't agree with seeing the hud while flashed... you are flashed, you cant see anything! Just accept it.

If i'm not mistaken, you can see death notices while flashed in 1.6, can't you ?

no, dude.

there's nothing like getting flashed, spraying and when white fades you see your name and three of your enemies on the top right corner of your screen. THAT is epic.

i need the scoreboard when flashed!

why? because a flash is a simple white layer, wich gets more and more transparent.

the background of the scoreboard is black and about 25% transparent. if its over the flash like in 1.6,
then you can use it to see trough the flash erlier again.

you dont belive me? make a screenshot and compare inside the scoreboard and outside,
where do you see more :)



its an important for gameplay! so let it like it is in 1.5/1.6!
