It would be great if Bungie were finally able to get the Flamethrower into the game. It would be pretty fun, and it'll look pretty violent.

I always wondered why they couldn't get it in Halo 1 and 2. If it's because it can't set stuff on fire, I don't care!

it was in HALO PC and it sucked so badly that they probably didn't bother putting it in H2 and hopefully H3... Sereously it had worse range then a shotgun and its 'flame clouds" were very ineffective

Yeah seriously the famethrower sucked ass. I would never pick it up in PC and I always felt bad for the new comer who thought "Holy -blam!- a flamethrower!" And kept on getting killed simotaneosuly because he was picking it up. It still is a pretty cool weapon though. I like Arson!

Well, I don't want it. The only good strategy it had was to shoot infront of yourself and hide behind the flames so the one that you aimed at couldn't hit you because he didn't see you. So there goes one weapon space.

The one good thing you could do with the flamethrower was that, because it came out as a steady stream of "cloud", you could sway it back and forth and take out a bunch of people simultaneously. It was undeniably cool, and I was actually pretty good with it, but yeah, many people were better with the shotty.

Whatever, I still like it, and if they bring it back I won't be complaining.
