First level flamethrowers: nerfed ammo capacity

First-level flamethrowers (M1/ROKS-2/FmW 35/Type 93) has now the same ammo capacity (“200” instead of “300”) as the second-level flamethrowers (M2/ROKS-3/FmW 41/Type 100).

It means that there is absolutely no reason to choose the first ones when you have unlocked the latter ones.

Before the last update, both were viable and served different purposes.

What’s the reason for this change?

Anything to do with the premium flameboys in Tunisia?

They always had the same ammo capacity. The difference is that 1st flamethrower uses less fuel/s than 2nd flamethrower.

Wow. Really silenced nerf.

Now not.
Sorry for Russian language, but…

Tier 1:


Tier 2:

They have same ammo capacity.

Welp pointless to use FW35

I think the ammo display is bugged - as I use the flammenwerefer 35, I see that it has 375 points of ammo (a new perk for flametrooper), and the math of old checks out:
300 * 0.25 = 75. 75 + 300 = 375.
But overall, I’d say the newer is superior basically - it has longer range (at least, if the numbers displayed in logistics don’t lie…)
