OOC. Will they appear onA vehicles? That would be good.


Should come standard in a Heat Stroke and Purple Haze.  Definitely would like to see some builds out there.

More Fire extinguishers, less guns pointed at me. Can you give Joel one?  :rolleyes:

Thinking more of a rare item, needing hero points to get them in the market. GW being the most northern town and better availability the further south you go to create the need to get out of SS and scout those towns.

Ok, I an going to be in a minority here - but bollocks - the last thing that could scare players has just been partially nullified.


OOC - this is true... and if people had listened to Joel and Longo before Pyro was introduced it wouldn't have been necessary.

They both said it would be overpowered and, as is often the case, they were right. People who blame the player for using things that are legitimate game elements miss the point that the job of getting the balance right lies with the game mechanic not the player.**

I'm sure this will unbalance the game in another way, and it would never be my first choice of solution.

** One legitimate game element being shooting witches with Heavy Car Rifles  :cyclops:

Players have been clamoring for fire extinguishers ever since vehicles catching fire was introduced. Only a tiny fraction of this clamor has been related to pyro.

Is the success of this going to be based on First Aid skill, or Mech skill? or Just random?

There should be a penalty for having a fire-fighting system going off in a vehicle of some sort.

Yeah, some special short-term critical hit perhaps. Reduced activity due to being covered in a choking spray of foam.

No specific skill, not really controlled by the character (at the moment).

I don't think they're common enough. That or they're too cheap because people seem to be buying them out within minutes of them making it into the shops.

I've seen them for HP in BL. The surge in demand will slow down with time.

I had a long think on it last night. These really wont be that useful. I am sure Ill have then in buzzers for scouts (since we all know they randomly catch on fire from minor impacts or one nape from a Firebug). But since its a weapon, its out in rallies and races. And in a Deathrally ( A real one) I am far less worried about fire than bullets. And in a deathrace, I am far more concerned about instant impact death than, again, fire. Other than CoE2 and some combat cars, I really am not going to use them. I dont think they unbalance the game because to have them on every single car you own is to prepare every car for something that doesnt happen *that* often. And while its nice they exist, I am not wasting 20 bulk on something thats mostly avoidable if I pay attention. Thats just me though.
