[@imbetter599]

You are a man, you have a prostate.

[@fragrantwinter8233]

I’m going to hazard a guess and say the reason you couldn’t use the flamethrower in the poison gas areas is either: 1) The oxygen in those areas has mostly been converted into whatever the gas is, leaving nearly none to react and produce a fire. Or 2) The gas is highly flammable and Isaac realises this, so he’s not willing to blow up himself alongside a good section of the ship.

[@utes5532]

You can use explosives in there, so the gas at least isn't flammable

[@starkadex3530]

Maybe not converted Possibly displaced by the poison gas. Probably why the gas is poisonous.

[@realhumanbean7915]

@@HexManiac-nf1yg So no oxygen

[@coopyrbrown3031]

The reason the flamethrower can’t be used in the gas area is because it literally just uses the space mechanic while disabling zero gravity, so suffocating is the exact same. Also if you actually die in the gas are by letting the timer run, it treats it like you died in space, so you just start floating away

[@100acatfishandwillbreakyou2]

Space is a gas confirmed.

[@drakewarrior1013]

Wait, really? As far as I remembered, you lose oxygen slower in those areas than in zero-atmosphere areas. I may be remembering that wrong though. But I always thought that it used oxygen reserves a bit, plus a bit of filtering.

Dead Space 1: the flamethrower is the weakest weapon in the game until fully upgraded and then it becomes the second weakest. Dead Space 2: becomes the middle weapon until fully upgraded. If you use the pre order version and flam suit it will become the third best weapon in the game. Dead Space 3: don’t use any mode/attachment for a flamethrower. Even if you have all 4 modes with plus 3 damage, the flamethrower is the weakest weapon in the game. Dead Space on the Wii: second best weapon in the game. Dead Space remake: no idea yet.

Once I beat the game on Classic mode, every difficulty became much easier anyway. On DS2 you need to beat the game on hardcore to get the foam 1ST finger/ hand cannon but in DS3 you just needed to beat it on classic mode to unlock it. One hit kill on almost any enemy on all difficulties, unlimited amno, and doesn’t have to be reloaded but sound cool when you do.

The flamethrower is so bad they literally did not test it with the final boss fight. Because that glitch could come up pretty often using the flamethrower for even just one of the pustules, meaning the devs themselves never bothered with the weapon.

[@alexanderstilianov]

Regarding the inability to use the Flamethrower🔥 in vacuum and toxic gas☣, this is straight from the Dead Space wiki: The lack of oxygen experienced whilst passing through a vacuum makes the Flamethrower unable to function; however, its fuel, hydrazine, is hypergolic, meaning it will ignite when in contact with an oxidizer, and is typically used with a liquid oxidizer in a separate tank. EA corrected this error in later games, in which Isaac can use his Flamethrower- even in a vacuum. Strangely, you can't use the PFM-100 when encountering Wheezers. This is probably due to the fact that the gas emitted by these Necromorphs shares the same scripting properties as a vacuum, in which the Flamethrower is useless.
