Weapon flashlight is way too blinding, it's getting annoying

Hey guys,

The weapon-mounted flashlight in Battlefield is really starting to **bleep** me off. When an enemy turns it on, my entire screen gets completely washed out. I can't see the player at all — it's like getting flashbanged. Especially in close quarters, it's almost impossible to react properly.

I get that it gives a small hipfire bonus, but the blinding effect and bloom are way over the top. It feels unfair and ruins the gunfight.

Anyone else annoyed by this? Do you think DICE should tone down the brightness and screen flare a bit?

Would love to hear your thoughts.

    When it's strong, it's VERY strong, but it has it's tradeoffs.
    Well, it used to but with the new ADS flashlight, it no longer has tradeoffs.  The hipfire buff is worthless, points are better spent on the good lasers anyways.

    14 years ago a video was made about how bright the flashlights were.  I remember them from BF3.  They were always super bright and blinding. 

    I don't think it needs changed, but the ADS on light needs to cost more points.
