The Mjolnir armor is supposed to be impervious to heat and cold. According to everything written about the armor, no air, no heat, no cold, not even water can get into his suit. It's impervious to the outside elements.

A flamethrower wouldn't do jack -blam!- to MC, and neither would a damn incendiary grenade.

You could've done much better Bungie, none of this -blam!- is new to me. Rainbow Six Vegas has incendiary grenades, and Halo PC had a flamethrower.

I'm hoping the flamethrower is campaign only.

Bravo Bungie, once again you succeed in spending a great deal of time and effort on something that will never be appreciated.


What the hell are you talking about?
Bungie did a great job in creating this game and i am sure they would not mess it up. if you don't like the game then don't buy it.

You said the gernade will not do anything to master chief? it heats up to 2200 °C. that is well enough hot.


the flamethrower on the other hand is not hot enough to kill a spartan. they said it them selfs

" I don’t see where carrying around a big can of super-flammable stuff right next to my xxxx is such a good idea.”

“You know those things ship with a cart, right? You aren’t expected to carry them anywhere… they are not a weapon that you use on people… not even on alien people.”

“I hate me some baby kongs, and I will kill every man Jack of ‘em that I see, but I don’t think I could burn ‘em—best to draw the line somewhere and that seems like it.”


This weapon is not used to kill, it servers some other purpose. proboly to take the other opponents shields out fast. then all you would have to do is shoot them once or twice or throw a gernade to kill them.

I think the flamethrower will be great for strategic purposes in multiplayer and espesily against the flood.

It stated that it's primarily used to burn down foilage, but that probably won't be the main use for it in the game since that would feel unnatural.

PM from Equus Asinus: "Calling me a moron for somthing wich you have no part in is stupid. Maybe if you used proper grammer I would feel you as a threat. But, I think you owe me an apology."

Kindof saw that coming.

Happy and looking forward to play.

And wanting more.

Flamethrower + close quarters = a lot of fun.

I dunno about you guys, but that flame effect is really poor compared to the rest of the game's high production values.

Bungie described it as having liquid-based physics and really realistic effects, but to me that just looks like a poorly done, big puffy orange cloud being fired out, very bland and boring.

This is what the flame effect should be modeled on:

Normally I don't give a damn about graphical effects but this puffy orange cloud is nothing like the liquid flame they described.

Don't take me as a whiner either, I still love Halo 3. This is the ONLY thing I can complain about. I just hope they improve it so it's practically a perfect game.


Wow, you're absolutely right. You should make this game, since you obviously know a lot more about making video games than Bungie Studios. You could totally do it, since they care about what random dumbasses have to say.

No Matter the Size, Finish the Fight.

Nice additions to the game, guys. I don't really like the flamethrower, but the incendiary grenade will be a different story on the battlefield.

Macgyver can build an airplane out of gum and paper clips, but Evil One can kill him and take it.
