This is great analysis of the grenade differences. I just tested the difference and you’re spot on. I’ve changed all of my rigs based on your analysis. Thank you for taking all the time to work on these tips.
Sweet, gonna start using stuns instead of smokes….xD
the FG may have a longer range but it won’t blind very much or for very long out of the SG’s range. movement isn’t affected allowing them to escape and there is usually no hit indication. one thing i don’t like about the SG is the enemy can still see you and they’re sensitvity is lowered which often helps them aim better. i guess that can be solved w/ a strafe into prone though. personaly, i don’t find a blinded opponnent very dangerous (FG), aiming is usually better than spraying and praying.

when being stuned its like being slo-mo hardcore because there is no aimer and you seem to die faster… probally from the damage of the stun
if you hit someone with either of these grenades with a decent hit you are going to kill the guy anyway. They are too much alike to really care about the little differences. If you lose a fight to a blinded person, you suck. If you lose to a slow-weakend person, you suck. It’s just about prefrence for these two.
As for Smoke grenades, they are really good if you know how to use them. You can use them to get into a room although flash and stun are better for that. Smokes are primarily better to use as a distraction since most people throw frags into or spray into the cloud of smoke so you throw the smoke in a room or area opposite from the way you are going.That way when people attack the smoke area they show up on radar and you can gun them down. They also hide you while planting a bomb or capturing a territory. If you are playing deathmatch the smoke isn’t too useful.
I think Flash and stun are quite distinctive grenades but I am a smoke man myself, good for instant cover, good for distraction, good for decoy folks always pop a few shots into a smoke exposing they’re position, and especially good for confusion small room with tangos in it pop a smoke in followed by a frag almost certainly they’ll get stuck against each other trying to escape

Using this command will enable you to see flash grenade indicators. If your reaction time is quick enough then you may be able to look away from the flash before the fuse goes off.
I like both Stun and Smoke depending on what I’m using it for. I just know it’s alot of fun to throw a smoke into a room with alot of enemies and watch them shoot each other. Hehehe
I always get confused with the name of both of them but what I do no for a fact is that one of the grenades is thrown much faster then the other making it easier to kill the enemy with a grenade hitting them flat in the head-I just love doing that.
Anyway I always get the two grenades mixed up but I recommend the one that is red and you throw it faster.
I love flashing a room and then strolling in and shotgun-ing them in the face or Knifing them in the back whilst they just stand there looking square into your face without knowing it-PRICELESS
So are you saying that you could die on hardcore if a stun grenade blew up right next to you? (I’m not talking about it actually hitting you in the face)
DUDE IN COD5 they have dogs omg omg omg that is frecking awesome
FG’s can still affect an enemy if they burst mid-air(as long as the enemy is in range of the burst)
stuns all the way/ best if u throw a nade then a stun into a room stun goes off the person cant move then nade kills them.
Stuns can be thrown way faster. Flashes take forever to get out of your hands.
Stuns give you the hit indicator which means I know someone is in there.
These are the only two reasons needed to declare stuns are greater than flash.
The stun is also really useful if thrown right arter a frag. They see the grenade indicator but can’t run away.
Another difference between the two: flash grenades tend to make people panic more than stun grenades, and when in panic players tend to fire blindly, alerting your entire team of their location.
You need to cross reference them with smokes, or at least make a guide on smokes.
I agree with comment number 1 (Jungle Rob) — this info was very helpful. Thank you.
I prefer flashes on my SMG class but stuns on assault, I find flashes better for when your bein a ninja class because they totally blind them and you can just run in for the knife, but i like stuns for my assault classes just to slow them down and get the quick kill
Smokes are all they say they are is all i gotta say. so the comments kinda add to the guide ;-] and flashes incompacitate for longer in my opinion, because completely blind is harder to reorientate than moving slowly for a moment… their random movement and spinning while blind leaves them waking up facing a random direction in a random part of the room with a empty gun. however, stun grenades in hardcore often score easy assist points, which lots of people love and equip up for.
i think all of u are sad faggots that cry yourself to sleep and wake up to you screams, u all need to get a life, i shall soon make guide and anlysis comparing, goin out with your mates and sitting in ur room playing games all day FUK U ALL!!!!!! PEARSON GeeZ x is the gamer tag if u wanna settle this once and 4 all lol
“he stun grenade emits a high piercing know and partially blinds the enemy just like a flash grenade. ”
Yeah, dude… Don’t know if any ones pointed this out… But the stun grenade is actually better known as a concussion grenade. Its not a high pitched noise… Its blowing your dudes eardrums out. You don’t recover from this as quickly in real life. Infact, you’d probably be bleeding from the ears and possibly nose and eyes. Depending on how close or confined a space you were in.
Still, the review is accurate. Smoke pwns, however. A tactical choice of course.

Good information here, however there is something you may not have considered. I know most people use some sort of regular mouse, but at least for me, I use a 1600 dpi Razr Diamondback. Its not as good now as it once was, but it is still much higher sensitivity than most regular mouses. When I’m affected by a stun grenade, I can still aim and engage targets, I just have to move the mouse more. But I could’nt tell you how many times that; under the effect of a stun grenade, I have been able to return fire and kill the person who threw the grenade then rushed in, or pick up the frag grenade and throw it back out at them. So while a stun might lower the targets ability to quickly get to cover or return fire, in some cases they can still return fire / grenades. With flashes, they may be able to move and fire just as well, however, they cant see what they are aiming at or where they are going. Some very good players undoubtedly have very good situational awareness, and at times I even find myself able to get to cover under the effects of a flashbang, but more often then not I find myself slightly misjudging my movements and running against a wall instead of retreating into the adjacent room. And forget about aiming, I myself tend to always use ironsights or red dot, so i pick guns like the G3 that allow deadly accuracy and damage when scoped. That means that my hip fire is incredibly inaccurate, and thats about the only way to find someone if you are flashed. If I were to scope, It would take an incredible stroke of luck to hit a target and then to continue to hit and kill him. So while a stun grenade makes it harder to aim, if you are used to a high sensitivity, you can still do it. With a flashbang, its all luck. So I’m not so sure about your conclusion that stuns are always better. Flashbangs can be especially useful if you enter the room and move around while engaging the targets. Stuns can be useful if you throw a grenade in afterwards and they cant escape it. I think both have their moments.

if u use the flash in a search and destroy i believe its better because if you r a player who uses sound alot it can help you, if u r trying to defuse a bomb and the other player is listening intently for that defuse noise if u throw a flash it will cover up the noise even if its not a direct hit
The writer of this article is a fucking noob. It says you can fucking do anything while flashed but you can’t fucking sprint when you are. Get a fucking brain you fucking bitch.
i am a nigger so i just cut ppl in cod4 so ya and if i have to go all gangsta i spray dem moderfuckers wit an ak47 or uzi bich……… bloods 4 life
Yo I’m a nigga 2! Want to take a break from the game and eat some chikin and watermelun?

Another thing why the stun grenade is superior. YOU CAN THROW IT FASTER than the flash.
Letting you quickly throw it then strafe behind e’m knife e’m and go on you’re (un)merry way.
But in mw2 they gave flash grenades hit markers which was a very nice change.
