I'm sure they will be in time, but the DEVs have probably been busy skinning other things.

The situation is that a model for the molotov has been made. however, it needs to be animated and implemented properly.
ETA would be .7ish.

I've got a Molotov Cocktail and a match to go. I smoke my cigarette with style.

When you say Tonto, I keep thinking of the city Toronto. Canada + molotov cocktail= WIN

Sorry Eggman

Molotov?

Now I wish I had a dime
for every single time
I've gotten stared down
For being in the wrong side of town.
And a rich man I'd be
if I had that kind of chips
lately I wanna smack the mouths
of these racists

Podras imaginarte desde afuera,
Ser un mexicano cruzando la frontera
Pensando en tu familia mientras que pasas
Dejando todo lo que tu conoces atras
Tuvieras tu que esquivar las balas
De unos cuantos gringos rancheros
Les seguiras diciendo good for nothing
wetback? y tuvieras tu que empezar de cero

Now why don't you look down
to where your feet is planted
That U.S. soil that makes you take shit for granted
If not for Santa Ana, just to let you know
That where your feet are planted would be Mexico
Correcto!

They aren't usefull anyway, a direct body hit doesn't kill and sometimes doesn't even cause serious injuries (coughing)
:S

I like throwing them cuz of their fire effects xD

Yea I wished they could be improved, but most of all I wish they would do more damage to vehicles.

It should be in .6 I don't see why it wouldn't be. The problem was it didn't get skinned, and we just kept forgetting about it =P

I've had one thrown at me, and I was just like "wtf is going on?". After I realized it was a Molotov I just walked away. I had a little damage, but I was a medic so I healed myself.

One other thing I noticed. When you throw them, it looks like two separate things have been thrown. I see two of the smoke canisters flying through the air.

Molotovs have pretty crappy damage for what they're worth. They do burn people alive... But it seems a direct hit just acts like a little spark.

Skinning is different from modeling. Check KP's thread on the MP5, and you will see what modeling is, and check Geze's thread to see what skinning is.

Modeling- Takes forever, very hard to learn.
Skinning- Takes photoshop, and creativity.

If we have the model already then it shouldn't be hard to skin. GEZE!!!

I'd also like to see their damage improved.

As it stands, it seems like they're more of a threat to YOURSELF as an insurgent then it is to any USMC. I've tossed them up on small roofs with USMC and had direct hits, only to be killed by those same guys seconds later.
