I don't know about anybody else but I like the look of the Spiker. Anything that looks like it made for shooting and swinging is great in my book.

Cool update, little things like this make the wait much more tolerable. Not giving too much away, but throwing us a bone. I wonder why these aren't in the weekly updates. There use to be screen shots and 3d shots before Halo 2 was close to being released.

Thanks for the info.

  • 03.01.2007 1:02 AM PDT

I've been here longer then my profile says. Halo fan since combat evolved.

That.. was.. AWSOME! sounds cool, but will it render the Smg ineffective? Oh well hey, i guess thats what the Stickys are for huh, getting around those pesky spikers...

If I did the math on this right, the spiker is able to fire it's ENTIRE magazine in about 5 seconds on full-auto. Rate of fire is about 480 rnds/min, meaning it is shooting about 8 rounds a second, right? Then take the 8 rnds/sec we just did the math on to its magazine of 40 rounds, and you have just unloaded a weapon that shoots 40 of these 2 foot long, white-hot metal rods in approx. 5 seconds. Does anyone else think this sounds a little crazy in a close-quarters fight?

sounds deadly, i'm glad the covenant have a weapon that is fast and more deadly in close quaters, especially with the ricochet bullets, thats gonna add a whole new level to close quater and mid-range fights, very good addition guys, i LOVE it.

And the Shadow fell upon the Land, and the World was riven stone from stone. The oceans fled, and the mountains were swallowed up, and the nations were scattered to the eight corners of the World. The moon was blood, and the sun was as ashes. The seas boiled, and the living envied the dead. All was shattered, and all but memory lost, and one memory above all others, of him who brought the Shadow and the Breaking of the World. And him they named Dragon.

Have you heard about grammar and spelling?

I've been waiting to learn more about this weapon ever since the brute vidoc. I thought it looke weird then and I still do. The bayonets give the gun a forward-heavy look that''s more remeniscent of Shredder's gauntlets than a gun. Indeed the gun is described as unwieldly and it definitely looks it.
At least the blades are functional, finally giving players a one-handed weapon that's a judge in the melee dept.

The wild west look to the weapon is new and fits the brute character but the gun itself looks cheap. I would expect to find the "spiker" in a Turok knock off.
