What does the Department of Transportation have to do with this?

Fire seems to work just fine for me as a non-host, I've never had an issue with it. The flamer is my favorite spot to play against bugs.

showing the testing done in there.
From what I hear it's also inconsistent. Sometimes host are also affected, sometimes not.

Nahh, my joke was kinda lame anyway. I didn't know what DOT stood for exactly, just knew it had something to do with damaging.

I've never really tried the gas strike, I feel like if they want to make it better then it needs a larger range. Maybe like the 120mms range.

ye went with full pyro build(no fire mines only) on bots as no host and not sure if i kill any enemy with burn dmg. Some enemy's was staying in napalm strike and fire grandes fire for like a more then 1min. and was still alive.

Personal test with Host and Not-Host, show a clear desync in DOT damage.
Flamethrower does damage as you use it... but i have not seen an enemy die to DOT burn damage afterwards when not hosting.

There are so many other people talking about it.
People also note how they think the devs have no idea this is going on and thats why they keep buffing the DOT damage because they are unaware of the desync of Host to squad member with DOT damage.

i tested breaker incendiary and not single enemy died from fire.

Any updates on a fix? I took a break from the game because my fire build against bugs was not working well as I only play with friends. I figured 2 weeks would be enough (wasn't) but I heard its a bigger fix and would take longer so hopefully soon??
