Is the blowtorch coming back to bf2?

Re: Is the blowtorch coming back to bf2?

I don't think the engineer has another wepaons slot for it to use for the blowtorch. It wasn't that useful in BFV anyways.

The new unlocks are for AT and sniper, so I would have to say that the blowtorch is NOT coming back. Plus, there are no more slots for another engineer weapon.

Slots 7 and 8 should be usable. You can actually use 10+ in mods:

1. The mouse scroll wheel only cycles through the first 7 items.
2. You only have one-key access to the first 9 items. Use the cycle-weapons key to go higher (default is F).
3. Only the first 11 items are fully functional. Items 12 and higher will CTD if you try to fire them. Medkits and ammo can be held to heal yourself and others but they can't be thrown.

EDIT: slots 7 and 8 might already be used in SF. Could possibly make the torch an alt-fire for the wrench though since it doesn't have one.

I would love to see the engineer be able to make different stationary objects. TOWs, machine guns, AA, and other things of that nature.

The leprauchan told me to burn things!

Yeah, I realised this after I posted. Oh well, nice thought, but like you say, I doubt it's coming back.

Never the less, I hope we get some more exciting new weapons with the new unlocks for AT and sniper.
