The M1A1 Flamethrower is basically a M1 but just reversed.

DF… just remove this stupid Tier system of the flamethrowers and give them their real stats.

Well then the M2 would be kinda OP as there would be no counter for it, and there wouldn’t be any point to upgrading to a ROKS-3 or a Flamenwerfer 41, as both of those are just simplifications and lightening of their formers, and have no real stat change.
Well, ROKS-3 have 40-42M range and Flammenwerfer 41 have 30M range if we give them real stats
Yes, but the M1A1 would have 45 and the M2 would have 40 while both the Type 93 and the Type 100 also have around 30, which would fuck over the Japanese, and the ROKS to the Flamenwerfer would be the same. Also, why would you ever upgrade from ROKS-2s, M1A1s, Flamenwerfer 35s and Type 93s if they implemented that? the only time you would ever consider doing so would be M1 to M2. The devs need some incentive to make you upgrade past the first level, so they threw historical accuracy out the window for the flamethrowers for both incentive to grind, and for balance.
Yeah i know, im just pointing it will ruin balance
What the problem with those description?
It’s very precise.
Oh ok, I guess I’m just more hung over than I thought.
M1A1 supposed to have better range than M1. Yet both have same states. M1 also had rl range of 15m while M1A1 had 18m which is the standard range value.
It would be cool if they would actually make flamethrowers more historical, and give both strengts and weaknesses to both factions flamethrowers
Since they used different fuel, the M2 could be bounced around tight walls, like in bunkers, but it wouldnt do as much damage then
The FMW41 would do a lot more damage and be harder to extinguish the flame
We need more asymmetrical balance in the game. Meaning each side has strengths and weaknesses. It is really boring them doing the same things for the factions.
Fine give japs worse tanks, give americans very good tanks.
But then give japs amazing planes, fix the lunge mine, increase the amount of troopers in a trooper squad, make them better more fortified maps like Iwo Jima and Okinawa, where the defenders had a massive advantage
We saw how well even attempting such a thing went with Normandy went, everyone still complains about it.
