What to do when you're blind
Flash bangs.. they happen at the most inopportune times. So, let us discuss the proper techniques of what to do when blind, especially when rushing and around other team members.
I usually try to play in such a way to avoid flashes all together; but there are obviously some instances in the game play which being flashbanged is inevitable.
If i am camping in one spot waiting at a bomb site, or in the hostage room or something and i'm blind i will either sit and pray im alive (if im in a pretty good hiding spot), or get up and shoot shaking my mouse and running in the direction the flash probably came from (this best applying to the hostage room in compound)
For myself, when rushing and i get flashed; it usually seems like a good idea to keep running in the direction and just spray--this will not halt the rush, you might die... whatever; but, if there's a side place for me to go in the hallway or whatnot that i'm in i will most likely wait there; I mean if im in the front of a rush and blind, there is like a 95% chance i will die, so rather just keeping the rush going and having our team mates die it might be a good idea to halt the rush for a few seconds (my thoughts applying to the T-rush long on de_train--there are those boxes on the right and left; there are plenty of other areas like this in the game.. prodigy.. etc.. but you know what i mean). The way i see it, a living member is better than a dead member of the team; and the people behind you on that rush most likely aren't blind and you can continue the rush with them once you can see again! This of course does depend on the map, and location of the map..
All in all, i think making sure you don't block team members is key
So, how do you guys generally handle flashbangs? ; i'd like some feedback

Re: What to do when you're blind
I dunno what to say here, i think it depends of the situation. If you saw them spray in there general direction, if they don't know you are there you could stay quite. it also depends if you look away and take away a few seconds of no sound / white screen.
But it seems to me the only way people kill me is result of flash, or i am rushed by a big group of people in an open area.

Re: What to do when you're blind
for me personally, i know where I am on all maps at any given time. So i know where to go for safety if im flashed. generally i try to go to those spots and wait for the affects to wear off. im better use if i can see what im shooting at as opposed to shooting blindly.

Re: What to do when you're blind
Yeah.. if you are in the front of a rush and get blinded you better keep running... one or two will inevitably die a lot.. so just bear with it if your that person that round.. don't block
And as far as navigating blind goes, that goes with knowing the map well and what not.. yeah
some instances though if you are in an open area and get blind (aka going up mid from the ct spawn in Dust2); i would either hide behind that box try and make my way back through those doors..
Yeah.. I suppose the the game with flashbangs has very variable situations and how to handle them at different times
