Devs, can you please change the plasma thrower looks so the two flame throwers are more distinguishable? I know this sounds petty but I really would like a different looking flame thrower so I wont get to confused in the icons when I quick click to equip.

Yeah, something generally bulkier would go down very well

They've already done so much for us I don't really care what it looks like. Only thing i'm really focusing on right now as far as our certs is switching massassi knuckler for the blast one.
(Although a quick re-coloring would be pretty cool )

I was thinking maybe for the plasma thrower, it could have a different gun look and actually change the look of your pack to that of a napalm tank or in this case a plasma tank, and add a tube running from the pack to the gun. So it would look more like a real flame/plasma thrower rather then a gun with a tiny tank on the bottom. It would be a temporary skin to the backpack (or maybe they could add the plasma tank pack as a new backpack type) while the gun is equiped.


And this gives me an idea, I really like the idea of having a plasma tank on all the time that doubles as a back pack. And also perhaps a perminent little flame in the front of the flame thower that glows slightly.

This is not a flame or anything it's just a general statement.

Everyone has been focusing too much on the looks of the new weapons. Almost everyone hates the MIR even though it's an extremely nice weapon (I don't think it looks bad). Many pistoleers are also upset because they don't get the "coolest looking new pistols", even if those pistols aren't neccesarily the best in the game.

Shouldn't we be just glad we're getting new stuff? I understand that we as humans have a certain aesthetic sense, but I think we need to look at the practical side of asking for new artwork at this time. Let's wait till the more important issues are over and then, if the majority of people still think there needs to be some artwork tweaks, let's bring it up then. Just a thought, i'm not trying to be offensive at all.
