I once read awhile ago about a guy named Domonik who didn't like the flash bangs because they made him have seizures. So I thought of a simple way to fix the problem of flash bangs causing seizures for people:

An option to choose if the flash bang flash will be either white or black. If the flash bang were to flash the screen in black instead of white, it would cause less risk of seizures in people who get them. This option could just be in the options menu of the game.

A flash that made everything go dark? o_O
I guess that would be fine, but if you're having seizures you're not supposed to be playing shooting games.

is this thread a joke??? all it does is make the screen white, there are no flashing lights, this is a load of bull sh**

Makes sense.

Its funny because blank is watching this thread right now.
But I dont think many people with seizures play video games. :/

seriously, why would you play video games anyways if you get seizures??? this is a joke. flash bangs wont give players seizures, end on conversation

You need to know the facts before you post.

First of all, when pokemon premiered in japan (I think it was there) tons and I mean tons, of kids got seizures just because of the light effects. And none of them had any idea that they may be susceptible to epilepsy.

Flashing lights and such can give seizures with no warning, and you could be seriously injured the first time.

And maybe it was just one flash, but why take the chance? Why not just add the option?

I remember many complaints about the flashes in the old forums. Many of the complaints were related to seizures. Making a black flash option would help the seizure people while also helping the other people that have the problems like "it hurts my eyes". Super Support!

You are very inconsiderate of other people. Some people are very sensitive to bright flashes of light, and can sustain brain damage if it is done multiple times. Black screen is being supported by me.
