I don’t know there’s a DPS on flamethower , what the hell is it.
Iirc, high tier flamethrowers deal more instantaneous damage (when directly hitting a soldier with the fire stream) than low tier ones.
i can’t tell if it’s a type I or II.
( i believe II. but i could be wrong )
it has 200 of ““rounds”” / fuel per ““magazine”” though

Thank you.
I’m not sure I can estimate the actual length of the fire stream.
200 fuel is more than I expected. 
Seems a lot for a “limited” flamethrower…

‘flamethrower_maxFlameLength’ for this gun is currently set at 32. Tier I flamethrowers like Flammenwerfer 35 are set to 18.
Lanciafiamme Mod.41 D’assalto also set to deal 60 dmg, like Tier II flamethrowers, Tier I’s deal 40 dmg.

Imo it get less fuel once picked up from the crate, i doubt darkflow pointed out gun limitation for do conversation
Thanks for the info, if so it definitely looks like it’s going to be a tier 2 flamethrower.
But then, I wonder why we got official statements about it being a low power version. Placeholder values?
Still, I’m not too happy about that, because if so that further consolidates the condition of these Folgore paras as a one-trick squad revolving around the flamethrower.
I would have preferred them to be a versatile squad able to be useful even without the crate, like Japanese paras or the German event ones.
Also because one “super” weapon in the crate implies that all other loadouts will be neglected most of the times.

Me too; I was happy for the OG-43 to be added, but now not as much. Flamethrowers are, in my opinion, very boring to play. Strong yes, but still boring.

All weapons from para crate come with double ammo supply, maybe flamethrower is affected by that and actually meant to have 100 fuel.
We also don’t know what’s up with upcoming paratrooper ‘changes’ (nerfs?)
Still, with 6 Tier II flamethrowers, post-merge your OG-43 will be definitely met with AR and top MGs from all sides. Good luck getting to that crate.
Maybe devs should find a way to lock flamethrower option from crate on low-BRs or buff squad’s main guns to stand at least some chance in high-BR environment.

That’s the exact point of this thread.
I hope one of the other loadouts has berettas (40s)…
Flamers are a cool gimick and all…but Id rather just shoot em

I doubt BR take in account crate equipment, otherwise every paratroopers squad need be putted aganaist 1945 army, probably only the main weapon influx on the BR and so crate equipment are nerfed or buffed for ensure balance
Maybe not now, but that must be the case in the future. Or else the crate will allow to “cheat” on the BR.

At the rate things are going the devs only care about letting the allies drop combat ready while the Japanese and Germans and the Italians need to fumble for their supply crate to do any work while the allies don’t have to rely on the supply crate to do work.

How? Italian paratroopers squad main weapon stats wise and ammo aside is at level of the mab38 who is mid-BR gun, and flamethrowers are in mid tier
So is hard call it a cheat
All loadouts are posted on Enlisted Resource - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13SXNYOfbfhFHYQ-DTNpLzTDtYdPaz0f-M4W3HyxKcxg/edit#gid=1819094803

Thanks. Ah well i know what loadout ill be grabbing.
I love the ZB-26. It wrecks.
Must be a lower br para unit
It SHOULD be.
Except that cursed flamethrower will throw it straight into high level battles, where those poor guys will be outclassed in everything unless spamming said flamethrower, so eventually everyone will be hating them and calling for nerfs.

im excited about that weapon
could someone show us how it is INGAME?
sights and rate of fire ? 
Indeed, some CC could publish a video with a preview of event weapons like it happened for the Luftfaust.
But I guess that requires Darkflow’s authorization.
