i dont know about you but i can run away with a white screen by looking at my arrow on the minimap. i shouldnt really be able to tho. rest of the suggestion is obvious.
Aw.... It was the only thing that was a counter to Flashbangs if you did get hit by one. I guess it would be nice/realist to have it work like that though.
I totally agree, it's a great suggestion. Here's a twist on that idea: whiting out the area on the minimap for the whole enemy team for the normal duration of the flash. Might be too much work for not enough effect, and might not even make sense from a gameplay standpoint. I am unenthusiastic about the idea, but I'm still throwing it out there.
If your getting feedback from your teamates/cameras etc via your radar, it wont blank out your minimap
