I don't know if this has been posted before but what are the chances of a flamethrower making it into Halo 2. I haven't got the PC version so i don't know how it effects weapon balance. Would it make a good addition to the MC's arsenal?

Flame thrower would be good but what I really want to see (now that you mention napalm) is cool new grenades like a napalm grenade or a remote grenade or ....hell I just like the idea of a napalm grenade.

The weekly updates by Frankie had a little bit about new weapons in them but i'm not sure how a flamethrower will work with Halo 2, it doesn't fit with the futuristic setting if you see where i'm coming from

Unknown. Right now it isn't clear whether Bungie will use the flamethrower or not. As it is, I can't see it making it into the final mix. The weapon just doesn't seem... "right" for futuristic combat. The flamethrower has a glass jaw, really. No range, but unstoppable up close. It pretty much makes the shotgun useless.

I believe they were thinking about it, if they could come up with a way to make the environments burn...
