Frozen? Not sure why...

**Angelforge** · 12-04-09, 10:50 PM

Hi everyone,
A few minutes ago on the 24/7 Dust2/Piranesi server, I was frozen for a few moments in place. I'm not quite sure why, and I'd like to find out. I'm not BAWWW-ing, nor crying "Admin Abuse Omg!!!". I'd just like to know why I was frozen so I won't do it again.

My side of the story:
If I remember correctly, the call was B. I was pushing B with the team when I got flashed. I ended up in the corner and began jumping up and down in place repeatedly - my typical response to being flashed in a rush. Seems to work. I was then frozen. I typed in something along the lines of "what?" or "why?". One word, if I remember correctly, then was unfrozen with the message "get with your team". I then went to grab the bomb and failed epically.

What might have happened was I misheard the call (perhaps it was Btunns to short instead of Btunns to B) or the call was changed while I was flashed. I'm not sure.

This has been my first issue with TTP CS:S (not counting getting completely stomped in the face by every other regular

). I'd like to avoid any further issues, and the best way, in my eyes, to stop bad habits from happening, is to stop them from forming. I always follow the call (unless I don't understand it, then I follow the mob of people) and I try my best (even though my best is yall's worst

) but I do try. I don't think there's any problem in my actions. All I'd like to know is, why was I frozen?

i was on ct side at the time. Your team went b tuns to lower tuns to short a. You whole team died and you were still in tuns by the big box. Your being flashed should have worn off by then but idk....

Alrighty, thanks. There were a lot of flashes, honest =(

Oh well, what's done is done. Thanks for the input. I can actually turn this into something more beneficial now that I have that clarified, and ask...

What's a good way to respond to flashes? Also, if I am flashed, can my teammates hear me say "It's b! b! b b b b!"?

good way to respond to flashes is as soon u see the flash turn against it and face a wall. u gota be fast. and they can hear u if they are not flashed

you could have been stuck on another player... its a glitch that happens from time to time. same glitch can happen if you get hit with a nade the right way, or debris in the game. like a 1% chance for that to happen but its possible.

That wasn't the nade. That was fear.
