Flashbang does not affect Guard Devices (Presumably other AI as well)

[loud edge]

I got you

I voted for it at once

@robust kelp

Thanks mate

Maybe I'm enough sigma to get response from Kali 😉😉😉

why do you keep bringing it to unrelated threads

let the conversation stay about the topic of the thread

it’s probably because it doesn’t alter gameplay and only affects the screen which causes the effect to be related to the eyes, and that doesn’t work on ai because they don’t have real eyes

It should atleast stun them

Maybe I could add more stuff to greater guard update?

About this

But yes it should atleast stun them

Any other item that only works on players probably should work on guards

But the new blizzard grenade doesn’t actually work on guards either technically

Since they never sprint to begin with

How did this get deleted from my most recent kick?

Well ig it doesn't matter.

i think what it should do is temporarily set their accuracy to the lowest possible for t he duration that the effect lasts on a player’s screen to mimic not being able to see where theyre shooting

also if they’re alert and you hit them and leave their line of sight before the time of the effect ends, they won’t tell which direction you went

Its kinda difficult to create a "blind" AI because it doesnt even see in the first place

Just like it’s difficult to force something to walk instead of running when it never runs to begin with

The guards can’t run

So how would you use a blizzard grenade on them

[untold crescent]

They can but only when "tamed"

[tacit torrent]

You mean hired

They do

Well then I guess it’s useless against boss guards then
