    When I throw a nano grenade and stun myself, the sound goes off and crackles. When the nano-suit recharges, it still goes off and the sound only recovers like 10 seconds after my suit heals. Is this part of the game or is my laptop dying coincidentally?

    Never had that problem at all. Does it happen anywhere else, like outside the game, or is it Warhead only? I have a similar problem in Crysis.

    I think your talking about the in game effect of being stunned. Its normal atleast I think so its been so long since I played that I may be thinking of call of duty.

    The real question now is: Why are you being a n00b and stunning yourself? What? You're so bad you want to take the suicide route, huh huh?

    Yes, I'm kidding.

    During the times I did the boneheaded tactic of CQC with a grenade launcher, the EMP grenades would disrupt my in-game display and sound for a few moments. I don't remember cutting out, but that could be because I haven't played in a while.

    Oh lol well I haven't really gotten the grenading distance down quite good yet in Crysis. And this also happens when others throw the EMP grenade too lol

    And no this has never happened outside the game. After this happened, I tested Windows Media Player out with my music and it was fine, so I hope it's just the way the game was designed.
