The new Firebug toy will be...
- Thread starter mamoo
- Start date
Currently firebug's main weapon is flamethrower which excel at damaging zeds slowly for a period of time. The new weapon could actually be the firebug's potential weapon that is design to take down zeds quicker like a blast of fire.

As long as it doesn't just hose everything down without any thought or tactics I don't really mind.
Personally I think it should: -
- be something melee range
- take a second of sustained fire to ignite specimens
- be only able to attack 1 specimen at a time
- deal a high rate of damage
- not require much ammo
- be cheap
- be light
- be unable to kill Fleshpounds and not really be that good against Scrakes.
Except for the last point, its essentially the inverse of the FT
One thing I'm terrified of is seeing the Firebug become an overpowered mindless pile of boredom that jsut hoses everything that moves. Firebug is all about hit and run, and hose in emergency. Ammo is limited if you don't play properly, and that is something I would like to retain in teh Firebug.
Fingers crossed this new weapon won't be a crutch for bad firebugs... like the M14 is for Sharpies and the SCAR is for Commandos (before you rage at me I'm not saying people who use the SCAR are bad players, but just think about why you don't couple the Ak and the Bullpup in your loadout, lets face it the Commando doesn't have a set role anymore, even in the hands of a novice it can take on nearly everything pretty competantly)

Official Heads Up - Required Killing Floor Update Coming
posted by [TW]Yoshiro @ 11:23AM on October 06, 2010
A required update for Killing Floor dedicated servers is planned to be
released this Thursday. We should be able to provide dedicated server admins with early access to the dedicated server files for updating, but this will depend on how quickly we can complete our own testing and how quickly the files can be deployed to Steam. The new content pack includes:
Free content/changes
- 4 new levels - four of the best grindhouse map making competition maps polished up for official release
- New firebug weapon - not what you might think
- Balance changes/fixes
- Bug fixes
Pay content
- 4 new DLC characters
- 1 "locked" DLC character, unlocked by pre-ordering The Ball
I was thinking some kind of launcher, but the words in parenthesis make me think otherwise. I just hope its not something cheesy like incinidery rounds or weak like that lighter fluid and matches idea.
i think is the fiebug new toy is the molotov lol
4 new DLC characters for free is a good new
1 "locked" DLC character, unlocked by pre-ordering what the hell.....
