Flamethrower

AcdFRe

<div class="IPBDescription">idea of the flamethrow coded into ns</div> What do think? Would it be balanced? I know this is possible from the flamethrower in TFC

AAAAAAAAAAH

A rumor has been kicking around that slot 4 is being saved for it.

It could obviously be made balanced.

Make it weaker by:

Reducing damage
Reducing ammo capacity (so its only good for base defence/commander supported weap)
Personally I'd rather they put in a mech.

Marines need a 'we're rubbing your nose in the fact we just demolished you' class.
Like the onos.

Acctually the ammo loader from Aliens would rock <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

this is from the ideas forums the NS official NS div team statement =)

btw the TFC one is rubbish cause its only sprites , get one like the unreal one where it is a modle which looks kewl, but that will be a FPS killer

Hehe, that'd be pretty cool.

Perhaps a massive mecha-like power suit with a big nasty twin explosive gatling gun array or something. Costs 200 resources to drop, only available when full research is completed.

I do not believe HL engine can support it.

I was tempted for a second to keep this thread open because it looked as if some people were trying to discuss how the flamethrower should work gameplay-wise, but then, people started to talk about the TFC flamer and instadeath weaponry again. Oh well, a man can dream...
