I really enjoy using the flamethrower and use it every chance I get, which isint often, obviously. But anyways, I thought it would be a good idea to make the tanks on the flamethrowers back explodable. Firstly its realistic, and second promotes more realistic gameplay. Generally the entire squad is not supposed to be sitting next to the guy with something that can explode and kill them all with 1 well placed bullet. And when it comes to the gameplay, it had might as well be a feature which can be toggled on and off, so the realism can use it, and the casual wont have to.
Good idea for the M2-2 Flamethrower

every time. Flamethrower backs dont Explode, it would only lose pressure and the napalm would flow out, it could be incinerated if the flamethrower was firing or it would otherwise touch a flame. eitherway only the poor guy holding the flamethrower would be crispy. so its not realistic. maybe the flamethrower guy would be pushed over.the whole squad should be sitting next to the flamethrower so they can support him and cover him while he maneuvers, or he's just the bunker clearing element of a normal squad moving with them normally.
It'd be really nice if the Japanese were not so flammable. Being around a corner behind cover and getting completely engulfed in flames when only the tip of your rifle is hit can get annoying.
Tripwire has a really good bullet wound, bleeding, and bandaging system in place. How is that not translated to fire spreading over a body? I get it, napalm is some nasty, sticky, burny stuff, but this crap is super napalm that defies physics.
Maybe it is the climate in Most Grorious Nippon. It must be really dry there to have produced a race of super flammable mummy men.

Do me a favour. Do you have a concrete wall? Yes? Do you have a garden hose? Yes? Okay, good.
Go outside, turn on your hose. Turn it on at full blast. Do you have one of those little coney dealies you put over the end to increase pressure? No? Then use your gorram finger. Now that you have a hose going with a lot of pressure behind the water, walk up to the wall. Walk up to the wall until you're about 6 or 7 feet away. Now angle yourself at about a 45 degree angle from the wall and spray the water at said angle at the wall. If you have enough pressure behind the water, you will see the water literally BOUNCE off the wall and move at a 45 degree angle(ish) opposite of yours.
That is how a flamethrower works. It's not literally throwing fire, it's a hose filled with an EXTREMELY pressurized liquid that is ignited and fired out of the hose.
The High Volume HV Flamethrower "Will inflict a particularly horrific death" - YouTube a US Marine firing the M2 Flamethrower, the same kind used in RS. Notice how he keeps bracing himself and the flames fire a good 30 meters? Yeah, that's a ton of pressure.
This.
