Is rocket launcher the only old wep that now has target tracking? And how far does it go to track? Is it even possible to dodge a tracking rocket? The e3 2004 demo showd it but the rocket only had to curve slightly to track vehicle...

Also how fast can the vehicles be movn for you to jump on em and take the guy out? any speed?

And does anyone know how many needles it took for there to be a super detonation in the last Halo?

Also in one of the older updates they said that they might make it so if you throw grenades continuously it might make some sort of chain reaction (???) has that been confirmed?

Hey, wait a minute. The needler doesn't track anymore? I hope it still does. Flying glowy pink things that chase you down and poke you before exploding are just too cool.

From what I last heard regarding boarding, you can only do it when the vehicle in question is moving slowly enough. I dunno just how fast that is.

I heard that it's seven needles.

I dunno what you're talking about. If you throw lots of grenades in Halo, you get lots of explosions. I would like for grenades to be volatile, though. You could drop them without pulling the pin/pushing the button/whatever, then use your sniper rifle to remotely detonate them just as someone decides to try to pick them up... I think it would go really well with the whole vent core and volatile vehicle thing.

target tracking is only for the infantry rocket launcher and it only works on vehicles, i estimate that the disteche will be your reticle what i mean whith that if your reticle will go red on an enemy you'll still be able to fire a target tracking missile, but like in halo sometimes the enemys are to far away and your reticle wont turn red so, i think that that will be the boundry!

also im courious if you get an alarm in your suit that a missile is tracking you!
and yes i think you can avoid the missile getting to hit you, maybe making a strong turn, or behind an obsticle or just get the hell out of the vehicle!

Yes its 7 needles to make an explosion I tried it and I read the vehicle has to be moving pretty slow to do it.
