In the old 2003 OXM they talked about the Flamethrower. Bungie said they would only do it if you they could get it to work right and be able to burn EVERYTHING down. This is all but a confirmation it means that there already working on it and if they can get it up to their standards expect it to be toasting fools come November. But what I wonder is what the inclusion of the Flamethrower will do to the balance of the short range guns. With the Dual wielding SMGs and 120 rounds of death, the Plasma Sword and ofcourse the Shotgun wont there be alot of close range guns your thoughts?

I think a Flame Thrower would be awsome imagine setting flame to grunts then watching them run away and then their methane tanks explode.

i was wondering about this too and itt will only work if the flame thrower was weaker and it sent flames everywhere so it was life like because i think if you shoot a tree with a flamethrower it will burn.

Burn!!!hehehe!!!!Burn!!!!!!

If the flamethrower won't suck, then stick it. Water gun? Might as well have a vacuum and a sandblaster. Don't miss all the Greek Elements. (shoot a fire hydrant?)

A flamethrower is useless. You have the sword for melee and every other weapon for mid to long range. I don't want a stupid cigar lighter to defend the planet. Bullets replaced fire as a weapon a long long long time ago. Why don't they just add a stick instead, or perhaps a rock. Throw a fricken incendiary grenade if you want to burn something.

actually it didn't in WWII they used a flamethrower considerring that the bullet was made sometime near the 14th century fire hasn't be fully replaced yet even today.

I have heard of him and his great Sci-fi novels and at the moment he is working on a game that looks real good called Advent Rising

It'll be awesome shooting the gas tank on the flamethrower since mostly everything is destructible and blowing everyone to bits... Muahahahahahahaha!

The flame thrower didn't work that well in Halo PC. If they put it in I hope they change it.
