Cut Content of Spec Ops: The Line - The Flamethrower!
Flamethrowers are a staple of video game arsenals, and for a while, that included Spec Ops: The Line! A flamethrower weapon was intended for use by Walker and the Damned 33rd, but it got cut before the game's final release. Promo images of it and a few seconds of gameplay footage can be found online, along with internal references to it within the game. It even got considered for re-inclusion as part of a DLC!
The question is this: why didn't it make the final cut? I try to piece together what few answers I can gather in this episode of the Cut Content of Spec Ops: The Line!
