For your consideration, --[[User talk:Bruce2401|Bruce2401]] 22:34, 28 February 2011 (EST) | For your consideration, --[[User talk:Bruce2401|Bruce2401]] 22:34, 28 February 2011 (EST) | ||
Agreed, it seems more like a plasma weapon than anything else [[User talk:SPARTAN-347|SPARTAN-347]] 22:57, 28 February 2011 (EST) | |||
Haha, whew. I go through all the trouble to check my physics and facts, develop an elegant theory to explain the mechanics of one of the most awesome weapons in the games, and all I get someone to agree with is that it's a plasma weapon! Oh, oh man, that's funny in ways it shouldn't be. --[[User talk:Bruce2401|Bruce2401]] 01:49, 7 March 2011 (EST) | |||
== What about Flamethrowers? == | |||
Flamethrowers are the oldest form of weaponry of this class (In the tech developement stages). They use heat, from the fire, to kill the target. [[User talk:Missing Mandible|Missing Mandible]] 00:19, 19 March 2011 (EDT) | |||
I think you may be mistaken. The flamethrower's original purpose was to eliminate oxygen in an enclosed environment and suffocate enemies in hiding, not burn them to death. The one used in the games is even further removed from killing by it's designation as a defoliant projector, an anti-plant weapon if you will. --[[User talk:Bruce2401|Bruce2401]] 23:35, 19 March 2011 (EDT) | |||
Besides that, flamethrowers use liquid and ignite it; Directed-energy weapons typically use plasma, which is highly energized/excited matter [[User talk:SPARTAN-347|SPARTAN-347]] 23:39, 19 March 2011 (EDT) | |||
== Maybe its time to update this section == | |||
Maybe its time we added 3 more sections such as Hard Sound, Ionized particles and Hard light11:18, 19 April 2018 (EDT)[[User:Spartan Matt|Spartan Matt]] ([[User talk:Spartan Matt|talk]]) | |||
