If this thing could be planted on a MAX, I would be able to live a life long dream of playing a Firebat

<--- Loved Plasma

I often went for the quick one two punch of a plasma nade out of a Punisher followed by a quick 3 bullets. IIRC took down a rexo if you actually hit him with the nade. Took out an agile without a direct hit.

Loved lobbing plasma nades around corners with a thumper too.

Interesting that the flamethrower is making a return this go around in PS2. TBH, I figured it was going to be cut. It never seemed like it was really used in PS1. I guess will have to wait and see this bad boy in action. Hopefully you can nail the tank and blow the dam thing up. That would make for some interesting game play.

Does anybody else the Terranish design of the thing? I mean it's NS but the design looks clearly TR.

I think it's absolutely awesome, and it's true, it does look like it could be made for a MAX. In fact, I remember that in one Q&A, someone said that MAX's get flamethrowers. However, that would make THIS the first case of NS weapons for a MAX; there were never any common-pool MAX weapons! Very interesting development!

I'm not a Heavy Weapons guy, but I do think that this is awesome.

However, no Heavy Weapon has a more precious place in my heart than the Lancer <3

Not sure how i feel about this, the dragon was just another annoying spam weapon in PS1

Setting fire everything and anything? I'm down with that.

One of my favourite weapons really nice job on this one, fully approve of the look!

[DviddLeff]

I want it to be used to clear units out of cover; short range but it spreads around cover to flush enemies out into the open.

i only used the dragon because it was a free veteran cert in ps1 and i hadn´t certed in any other weapons due to being fulltime supporter. it looked cool but felt very bad and ineffective.

i hope the new flamethrower is a max only weapon and extremely powerful like the saving private ryan version.
it may seem overpowered at first, but remember the other scenes with it in the movie?
one unlucky hit to the tank on your back and you do the popcorn thing and blow up all friendlys around you, too.
make it a high damage but high risk weapon like the real one was! so it will be primary target as soon as it is spotted. and it will have a hard time getting support because running close to one of those bears the risk of being killed along when it blows up.

this way it will not end up as first choice weapon for randoms and would require a high amount of teamwork to protect it´s back and guide it to a good position.
