Go in a 5 player server as zombie, and try to kill 4 survivors using flamey + splash if you're always being the one zombie in a 5 player server, of course you're going to die, face it. Go on those 15-25 player servers with multiple zombies. I have been able to take down survivors by myself in 5 player servers, even those with high rank guns such as the M249. Granted, it's still difficult, but I in the very least have a chance against these players, as opposed to someone using napalm flamey, which most of the time requires you to be a brute. Flamey counters normal zombies, edgars if they get a stud too close, leapers, beekeepers (kinda), tickers, stalkers. And as I mentioned before, elementals can't do much either because they can: a) have a secondary for elementals b) have firevest or c) have extinguisher.

Brutes are the only ones left, and even then, they can STILL have a hard time against flamey just because of it's insane damage output.

This has just been my experience, I'm not trying to brag that I can take down M249 players or anything like that, just giving my input on the flamey's napalm. Flamey is an area denial, not an M249. An M249 user can farm more than a flamey because it has more damage and range. Flamey is fine the way it is, it was always fine, no one here is going to care about it.
