I was hoping this thread was going to have news that the model was added. So very sad....

i hope they work something out with the molotov, i dont think it should blow up in the air.

TexLax · 04-25-2007, 05:59 PM

they have a model for it, but im not sure why it isn't ingame yet... they also have a model for IED's

I think they need to be more powerful, I'm hit soldiers dead on with them just to see them run out of the flame and start shooting.

They should also be pretty nasty to light vehicles, they were used to great effect as anti-tank weapons in WW2 on the eastern front with a good hit to the engine deck. I imagine it wouldn't do much to modern armor but humvees would be a different story.

Molotovs are awesome. Great room clearers and building denial weapons as well as impromptu anti matieral weapons.

Try throwing it at a stationary tank, you'll see what happens

Never actually done it -- please tell me it doesn't one hit kill a tank!

It's very hard to hit the target as they are now. It's odd that they blow up mid-air making an accurate shot a miss.
Yes they are good for room clearing, but can something be done to prevent them from blowing up in the air?

Yes they do damage...err destroy vehicles with a good hit :P

Yes they do.
A few seconds and the vehicle burning and explode.

But for a unkown reason only when the vehicle is more than 430m away from the mainflag

I remember having only 3 guys with me one day as Insurgents, I had a US kit of some sort that i picked up cus i ran out of AK ammo. And i had a Policeman and a RPG Gunner. We had a tank move in near us. The RPG Gunner shot the first round and the tank ignored. The second round hit the side and tracked the tank. The tank then decided to start shooting at the RPG Gunner. And here comes the cool part (God, I wish i had a fraps of this). You see a Insurgent run up behind the tank, jump on it, get to the hatch, waste the gunner with his AK-47 and then drop a Molotov in the hatch and jump off. The Molotov exploded and tank blew up. So, yes, very effective when used right.

Also, try lobbing one into a blackhawk as it drops off troops. That's always fun.

	The key to modernising any weapon is covering them in glue and tossing them in a barrel of M1913 rails until they look "Modern" enough. El_Vikingo: Bob_Marley, the level 70 pimp, will satisfy your needs. Many thanks to the Forum's no.1 hottie for the sig pretties.
