i mean every class should have a consistent way to finish people off, both roaming soldiers and demo's are lacking in that regard; when is extra weapon slot? I can handle more weapons that solely an RL

alright alright so it seems like people still need ideas to come up with (even though the one person randomly dying is genius) so how about this: every time you see an enemy, no matter the range, they are automatically on fire and all of the pyro's secondaries do full crits to burning enemies so you don't need to use the broken flamethrower?

NinlopFunsWhy The Demoman Should Have A Shotgungive demo a fucking glock

The demo on my old team said he told a kid he had glock in his locker at his school
Not sure if that counts though...

capnnofapnI've always loved the lightening gun idea for pyro but I think it would be best if it still felt like a flamethrower at least a little bit. For example, the center of the beam would act like a lightening gun and would have to be directly on the enemy to do any significant damage, but around that beam are little flame particles that do very little damage or set enemies on fire fore a brief moment.

turn the lg orange and call it a magma beam or some shit idk

Pyros current weapon is pretty similar to something like a plasma gun from quake except the flame particles have a lot of random spread, "drift" in certain directions and have projectile inheritance (i.e. they move faster if the player is moving forwards and slower when they're moving backwards). Imo you could get a more consistent flamethrower "feel" by making it a much tighter cone (or no cone at all?) plasma gun without the weird particle movement. I don't think it actually has to be hitscan.

The only problem i could see is that tracking invisible spies would require more than one synapse

basically a flaccid lightgun
a literal lightgun wouldnt fit much with the pyro theme, even if it had limited range

I'm pretty sure everyone has thought about this change at one point or another, but Valve probably isn't going to do it.

just make it a laser? that isnt too much of a stretch from a 'fire' theme
