Chambers Posted August 13, 2018 Posted August 13, 2018 Name: Chambers Suggestion: Removing the particle effect from the flamethrower so people can bloody work / Setting the burn time to 1 Implementation: Remove it from the player view Lore: This is the cure for cancer. Workshop content if applicable: Requires Development @Maxwells (Said it was possible) (If no workshop content, suggest a developer or put "Require Development") If you are asking to add or change a job, fill out the following Add or Change: Change Weapons: Advanced FlameThrower, Flame Thrower, Death Watch Flame Thrower Other: I chatted with Esitt and this is the compromise we came to. 2 1 1

Fours Posted August 13, 2018 Posted August 13, 2018 (edited) Is it possible though? I'm pretty sure this was made ages ago but they said they couldn't fix the red screen as it was a Half Life effect and ported in. I'm not sure though. If Maxwells can do it by all means +1.

J.Jefferson Posted August 13, 2018 Posted August 13, 2018 -1 The flamethrower effects is one of the reasons the flamethrower is good. I would say remove it from the regular flamethrower, not the adv one. Former Positions: 41st XO 41st Green Leader 41st Faie Temple Guard Manager/Cin Overseer Gamemaster

OneNiner6719 Posted August 13, 2018 Posted August 13, 2018 Neutral, as Jefferson stated, it is one of the reasons why it's good, but I'd definitely said it really should be removed from the deathwatch flamethrower

Illium Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 There's not many people with the Flamethrower. The number is probably and most likely less than ten. People have worked to save up for this weapon and removing it would be rather upsetting for those who saved up to obtain it if their hard earned credits were not refunded if this was passed. Besides, most of the time the flamethrower is used in an event it's by one person and mainly against Player Characters whom are hostile since it is ineffective against NPC's whom do not react to the flame effects. It appears people's main problem with the Flamethrower is the red screen you receive once you are lit on fire which causes most people to run around blindly. The red screen is there because you are taking damage at a constant tic, you can see it if you are being shot at at a rapid rate as well. Honestly, people seem to be mainly upset when it is used against them, which is fair. People who are unintentionally lit on fire just happen to get in the way or run in front/near of the flame while one is burning an event job since the flamethrower has a small AOE damage in the center of the flame. That red flashing screen and the hissing sounds also tend to throw players into a panic due to the fact that they cannot see, thus creating an opening for others to push in and take control of the situation. Though this does not usually happen due to A. the High HP of event jobs, and B. when they use high damaging blasters. More often than not the blast from the flamethrower only sets them back 250ish HP if they are hit once. The resulting burn tic deals roughly another 20-30 damage, depending on if they stand still to let the flames go out faster or if they runaround "feeding" the flames. Most event jobs that I've run across tend to kill me within a few shots even though I have maxed stats, and even then I sometimes only get in a single flash on them and set them burning before dying. I'mma leave a -1 because there's not many owned on the server, and more often than not several events go by without a flamethrower used in them. They're not used often enough to be a real annoyance and when they are people get upset at the people who saved up for them by using something that they earned. 4

Scarecrow Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 The weapon is good to hound someone with and disorientate with as it is not a fast acting take down weapon removing the particle effects would remove the main purpose of the weapon as it has a very short range and doesn't do mass amounts of damage I understand why the particle effects are annoying but really that's the only really thing the flamethrower has going for it is the effect when you get hit it makes you panic but it's trade off if how close you have to get to the burn-ie the panic from them is what you rely on to survive so all I can do is -1

Turbine Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 (edited) After further consideration, I do not believe that the fire effect should be removed due to the fact it is one of the main features of the weapon as it causes panic in the attacked personnel Edited August 14, 2018 by Turbine

Anyone can AFK for a flamethrower. You saying it should be broken is implying that it needs to be fixed. All this is is getting rid of the blairing red effect on your screen so you dont have a spasm in the middle of the hallways. Chill out . 1
