firebug & mac10

[caeamo]

i'm just confused cuz at level 0 firebug has 5% extra flamethrower/mac10 damage but next level requirements is deal damage with flamethrower only. i just think it should be deal damage with flamethrower/mac10. what do you think? any opinions?

p.s. cool update by the way. i don't really mind the recoil of mac10, it just adds more thrill. trooper clive jenkins is sort of guy from killing floor mod of UT2k4. i'm still hoping for female character packs in the future. Godbless & more power TWI

Agreed. The damage dealt by mac-10 should be taken into account for the perk requirements.

It actually does add points for the perk. Just not as efficiently of course.

Just like the LAW already levelled Demo perk. But still idiots were like "MAEK IT A DEMOW WEPAN LAWLZ"

The LAW doesn't do enough damage for anyone to notice. ::rimshot::

Or maybe Tripwire just wanted it to be made clear to players who don't frequent the forums...

I'm pretty sure the LAW did not level the demo, and I am also pretty sure its rockets did not get a boost like they do now.

They did. I am very sure of this.

Yes, I typed that before learning that it was in fact buffed as of the new update.

Still haven't tried it yet... way too many latent zerk/zerdic/commando/spamshooter habits to trust myself not to blow myself up. D:

You're not going to be leveling the Firebug with the Mac-10. It doesn't do nearly enough fire damage for you to get a decent leveling...

"Flamethrower damage" doesn't include "Fire Grenade" damage, yet people seem to understand that the fire from these grenades levels their Firebug.

Why is it so hard to understand that explosions from the LAW, function like the explosions from the grenades and grenade launchers, levelling your demo perk? I wouldn't expect so many players to have to need these things written down for them. I guess I am wrong. Players nowadays have no initiative.
