FLAMETHROWER in Halo 5?

Any news? It would be nice to use in multiplayer or even campaign.
:expressionless:

I haven’t heard anything, Harzeckz. I have a bad feeling it’s not in the game.

People actually used that thing?

On a serious note, it’s primary utility was to combat the flood. Without flood being present, I see no need for it’s return.

This is one of those weapons that is best not returning. Neat concept and design, but not really practical for the game.

You serious? The flamethrower was awesome, it killed so fast, just remove the movement penalty and its fine.

Having it back would be cool, I loved that weapon.

Hated that thing I’m ok with it staying out.

If it became a bit more useful I’d love it back, maybe less of a movement penalty when using it?

Loved it it would be great to see it back

mabye we could even have 2 variants a larger turreted flamethrower [halo 3 version] which would do MUCH MUCH more damage but would give slower movement and then wed have the halo ce version which was smaller and could reload

personally I don’t care for it, but as with many things. Why not put it on the forge pallet and leave it out of MM

I was fine with the movement decrease of using the flamethrower in Halo 3 but the range was terrible. If it comes back in Halo 5, and I hope it does, 343i should increase the range or buff it in some way.

If that can come back bring on the fire grenades and brute weaponry.

Actually it worked very well for slowing down opponents and the sticky factor meant the simplest direct contact meant you were screwed. The flamethrower (as-is) would have been a god-tier power weapon if not for it’s category as a heavy weapon (TP, movement penalty)

How are they related to the flamethrower? The flamethrower was human built.

Maybe even some covenant or forerunner versions too !

I’m saying is if this can come back why not these besides if there were a flamethrower why not make a weapon that shoots out pure plasma designed similarly towards then flamethrower.

Oh i could definitly see the brutes making some very nasty flame/fire weapons, a plasma bolt without the magnetic containment would also basically be a flamethrower so regular covie weapons could be turned into makeshift flamethrowers to

The foreunners probably used them to aswell in order to control the flood

I honestly can’t see a use for it in halo 5…

I wouldn’t mind either way, but if it made a return, it would need to be a smaller version to fit the style of Halo 5.
