Hi, I'm a long-time fan of The Last Stand, and so I was absolutely thrilled when The Last Stand 2 was announced. Having played through it, I began to wonder about the weapons. See, I've always been interested in the deleted weapons from the first one (the grenades and the Minime) and I was glad to see them finally implemented into TLS2. Now, on Con Artist's Armorblog post, he indicated that there were five new weapons. The Traps are separate items, and all I managed to find were the compound bow, RPG launcher, Minime, and hand grenades. What was the fifth weapon? I wondered to myself. So I dug around the .swf file and found not one, but TWO possibilities. The first, and less likely, is an auto-shotgun. There is a sound file called auto-shotgun, which, obviously, plays the sound of an auto-shotgun firing. There's also a sprite showing off a shotgun-looking weapon that doesn't match anything in the game. The other, and more probable, weapon is a flamethrower. I base this on the fact that there are graphics of a can of bug spray, a hand held lighter, and an animation of flame particles.

So my question is, why wasn't this implemented in the game? Or if it was, is it possible to get it, and no one has figured it out yet?

That is a really good question. They might not have implemented it into the game simply because of the lack of effectiveness of a flamethrower in a massive zombie attack. To quote The Zombie Survival Guide, "What's worse than a horde of zombies? A horder of zombies on fire." But then again, who says games have to make sense.

Well if it is in the game you would have to unlock it because I went to Every town in every building and there was no flamethrower. Someone even made a thread that had a picture of all the weapons.

I think that it wasnt put in the game because it was either too powerful or too determental if the zombies got through your barrier like eddie and bbyers9113 said.

thats not possible. if you go over the 40 day limit its says you couldn't make union city. you missed the boat. and so as your chances of survival.

A flamethrower would be good and may be as efficient as the chainsaw when the zombies are too close.
