Rainseeker

<div class="IPBDescription">New weapon suggestion</div>It would seem to me that the logical thing for a marine squad to have a flamethrower somewhere in the mix. Easy to hit with, low but steady damage to aliens, but would burn away the procedurally-generated creep.

What do you guys think?

You're beating a dead horse.

This thread has been discussed previously. It has some serious controversy about it as well...

In the about section of NS2{<a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/about/" target="_blank">link</a>} Charlie confirmed the existence of a flamethrower for clearing infestation. Max was also talking about implementing a fuel trap in the shadow grounds survivor thread{<a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/forums/index.php?showtopic=103238&hl=" target="_blank">link</a>}.
