I think the idea is to have a starting weapon that you can buy at regular price and keep along with your regular weapons, so you can level up the firebug perk without necessarily playing a dedicated FB.Add this if you please, but I think I'll stick with the flamethrower. It'll have more power and range, leaving the rest of the Firebugs to rot
What, to hell with that. For me, it's the complete opposite. I'd use it if I were using another perk, simply because it doesn't weigh too much ad would be a decent backup weapon. Then again, you'd be taking one assload of fire damage from it that way, which would again, put me off.I think the idea is to have a starting weapon that you can buy at regular price and keep along with your regular weapons, so you can level up the firebug perk without necessarily playing a dedicated FB.
