So there I am minding my own business trying to cap a flag in Dragon Valley.  All of a sudden my whole screen goes white.  I'm freaked out by this strange turn of events but I try to keep my cool.  I say to myself, "Lemur, it's your POS rig crapping out on you again" and hold steady.  But after about 20 secs my game comes back.  I finish capping the flag and wander upstream on my merry way.  Hmm...

I don't give another passing thought until a few days later it happens again in game.  This time in Karkand.  Damn, not again!  OK, I keep on my heading, do a little dancing (at least that's what it would have looked like had I not been subjected to an early season blizzard), and I end up just about where I would have expected. 

Never a scratch, not a mark.  And no indication there was anyone nearby.

This happened a third time about a week after that.  My question is:

WTF is going on?!  Is it a flash pack from BF2:SF?  I don't have the expansion but I'm guessing the patch enabled the stuff in vanilla.  Are the damn things portable across versions?  Is my vid card messing with me?  Am I seriously frigged up in my cacabesa? (well, yes.  but what about my screen with the polar bear in a snowstorm?)

That could be the flashbang from Special forces, and yes when it get close to you and flash you really are flashed for a time

if you unlock the f2000 you get flashbangs instead of smoke grenades. if it blows right in front of your face you will be blind for quite some time.

but on my computer, i have a shitty graphics card so my screen goes white and does all kinds of crazy shit.

Yup, that's exactly it.  shitty card, crazy shit.  so the flash bangs come packed with an unlock? interesting.  is the f2000 the only one that gives you an alternate secondary?

Yup the only new stuff from SF to BF was just the weapons and the flashbang and you will get it if you unlock F2000, but throwing the flashbang is a bit tricky, when first seems to throw it he doesn't .

Flashbanged... haha I love doing it to helicopters foolish enough to hover really low near me . It's also funny when you chuck one into one of the little buildings on karkand and see the guy running around like a headless chicken. You get the flashbang with the F2000 kit.

That happened to me for the first time yesterday. Freaky stuff. gotta get me one of those.


Does the F2000 sort of sound like a "laser" of sort. Like a quick firing zap sound?

Yeah it was freaky.  I thought my pc was about to crash except the sound was still going.  You never expect the flashbang inquisition!
