I searched around, but wasn't able to find any other mentions of flamers stuck on and firing continuously on dead mechs in the forums.

I'm actually not sure I'd classify the firing flamer on the dead mech as a bug - battlefield hazards from ammuniton and weapons on downed mechs is neat.

However, it should probably do damage when you walk through it. This one showed the damage indicator around the edges of the HUD, but didn't affect my paper doll.

As shown in the video, this is on the Forest Colony map up towards the elevated enemy base.

I haven't been able to reproduce this nor seen it again (I guess mechs with their flamers firing when they get killed aren't very common) so I haven't been able to test whether the lack of damage is a fluke.

(I know, I know, probably the flamer still firing on a dead mech is unintentional, but I like it!

I've seen this bug before and.... I kinda like it... only if it wouldn't keep on doing that non-stop. Should keep going till it blew up from overheat or you know...whatever.

I had this bug on me in the River City when i died i stayed in my Mech and i could fire ALL weapons and even accelerate/ decelerate (without moving). My Mech even overheated and shutdown till the end of the battle.

The weapons all fired to a fixed point that could not be moved.

I have video of this as well if you need it.
