instead of new weapons, how about just letting the firebug use the welding torch like a high powered knife early in the game? maybe give it a slightly longer range than we currently have when welding.

Flare gun. Easy one really, given that the existing flamethrower behaves like a full auto flaregun. Tier 1 weapon, low initial damage, long burn duration.
Tier 3 Flamethrower. I realise there's already a flamethrower, but let's face it it's pathetic.
Incendiary explosive weapon. Whether a grenade or rocket launcher
Well, the firebug needs something. I was outlining the various possibilities I see, whether or not I think they're good ideas.
The firebug is very much the runt of all the classes right now, having far less combat capability and far less versatility than any other single class.
Also, assuming your signature to be accurate, you've hardly played firebug. You're hardly an authority on its balance now are you?
Not a good enough reason to cancel out the idea, as shown by the LAW. And most indoor maps have holes in the ceiling or small out door areas. Not like it really matters, none of these ideas are going to actually happen so this thread seems more or less for just killing time instead of zombies.My knee jerk reaction to this was alot worse, so I'll strip it down to.... there are alot of maps that are indoors only.
