Fire seems to stop doing damage after the first resist

Post by caleeb101 » 01 Jun 2017, 04:40

Bug Description: When you play as a xeno, if you are set on fire and resist it seems to stop doing damage straight away. So it doesn't matter whether you extinguish it or not. I also think sometimes it sets xenos on fire but the fire dissapears. Flamethrowers as a whole seem pretty bugged rn.


Steps to reproduce:
1. Become a snek.
2. Get set on fire.
3. Resist once and survive being burned alive.

Can't reproduce. Give us more detail.

Fire loses effect after awhile, for some reason, after one SDR, it'll just delete.
You will never be as bad as the baldie who picked up a tactical shotgun while a hunter was pouncing on top of a CMO for 4 seconds, with his only response being to pace around before being decap'd by said hunter. You are not Brett Kimple, and you never will be. You are not the reason why I regular MP.

Err, if it's deleted it means you've successfully extinguished yourself, so fire damage stops of course, what's the issue?

Do you mean that the fire stops doing damage despite the xeno being still visibly on fire, or do you mean that the fire disappears and the damage stops?

Fire slowly consumes itself it doesn't last forever even if you don't resist it. if that's what you meant, then that's not a bug. At most you want the flamethrower fire to last longer but that's more a suggestion than a bug.

Fire doesn't last long at all though, even without resisting. It was so short, I thought it was a bug.

How long did the fire that you witnessed last? And what was its source?(flamethrower?)

About 3 seconds before it stopped doing damage and I hadn't resisted. This was as a Young Runner and I had just been roasted by a flamethrower.

Today was shot by incendary sniper ammo once as a Crusher, 2 resists - still on fire, fell in crit, fire estinguished by it self, only then started to heal, so this bug didn't occure for me.

Flamer might be bugged. Got several reports of fire disappearing after a few seconds of an alien getting flamed.

Flamers seem to be bugged. Didn't light a crusher on fire..or it did then extinguished itself afterwards immediately.
