Flame God
« on: July 03, 2007, 08:34:09 pm »
Just a few things of the Flame God bonus that annoy me...

1. Is it just me, or does the Flame God spawn more than any other bonus? Whenever I get to a spot where a Flame God and a couple of other bonuses spawn, there always seems to be two Flame Gods spawning at once. I dunno, it's probably just me...

2. Flame God is supposed to make you invincible, right? You do become a God for 10 seconds there... Well, I can be hit by an M79, and while it doesn't kill me, it does take away ALL of my health. It's quite annoying, because then I only have to be sprayed at and I'm dead.

3. Why can't I throw away the Flamer after the bonus is finished? Sometimes, and this has happened to me a few times now, I get two Flamers, and I can't get rid of them for a new weapon. Is this the game's defence from you switching the flamer for a different weapon during the 10 seconds of invincibility?

That really is strange.  I don't know what is causing your problem, it might be a glitch or something.  I don't know how to handle this problem, the only thought I have is re-installing Soldat because you may have a corrupted copy or version.

Happens to me...
hopefully it will be fixed in 1.5...
And seeing that 1.5 is the final version, it better be good, because then all the suggestions and balance threads will be totally gone, or have I misunderstood and that he wont be working on the next one and someone else will?

1. It spawns the same rate as other bonuses, it's just that no-one picks them up which is why you find many bunched up together. :P

2. Yes, same thing has happened to me countless times. I avoid them as much as possible.

3. I always thought this was a glitch, finally, someone who shares my troubles (although it is possible to throw away the flamer offline).

No, that's not the point. People pick it up, but to me it looks like it spawns twice as much as any other bonus...

Hmm I feel so too. Maybe the other bonuses are scooped up faster than Flame God ;)

2. Flame God is supposed to make you invincible, right? You do become a God for 10 seconds there... Well, I can be hit by an M79, and while it doesn't kill me, it does take away ALL of my health. It's quite annoying, because then I only have to be sprayed at and I'm dead.
Haven't exactly experienced that (rarely have flame god and ever rarer to have it online) but I suppose that really kills the whole invincible thing.

3. Why can't I throw away the Flamer after the bonus is finished? Sometimes, and this has happened to me a few times now, I get two Flamers, and I can't get rid of them for a new weapon.

Yeah, I've experienced that. Youre pretty much dead when that happens, because you can now be outsniped from a range you can't do shit. Having 2 flamers is pointless, I would understand if the reloading time was enormous but it isn't.

@Kryp -- go buy some skills. use /command to bring up the commands.

1. Yes, i know what you mean. I think its the most common bonus, so it might re-spawn the fastest.
2. This is very annoying, and it doesnt always apply to the flamer. It can happen anytime you are attacked by someone that cant kill you. (most notably, in Rambomatch when you dont have the bow)
3. This is why i stay away from those in RM. The damage isnt really great anyway.

The flamer is an excellent weapon offline. Just one round is enough to kill a bot if they don't roll around too much.

The Flamer probably has the worst hit reg. I swear, unless your target is standing still, you can't burn them. It's great for campers, because they don't have time to run away, but anyone else, and it's no use.
