ok im talking about the jackel closest to us. it is carrying a carbine.

1. needler not that long
2. needler is round at the end, not sharp.


yeah. if the Needler isnt that long,then it cant be the Carbine. the Carbine is longer than the Needler.

Has anyone here noticed that the Covenant Carbine HAS green lights as part of the ammo indicator? The Jackal could prolly hold it with one hand becuase it's an enemy A.I., and Enemys can do lots of things, like hold the Needler with one hand. And the Jackal's gotta be strong, look at it's bump-mapped arms. And how else is it going to lug around a sheild generator on it's wrist all day?

Now who's a Jackass, ya Jackass.

Its the needler. The plasma pistol has a green block at the end of it and you would be able to see it from the angle.
Also the plasma pistol is smaller than that and the carbine is larger.
Its the needler without a doubt.

The new needler looks different. Take a look. It's not as round as it used to be and it has two muzzles. It's "beak" has been shaved off with a saw at the very end.

ya the green part on the carbine is on the back and has an LED in it, you would see it if the jackle had one, its either a plasma rifle or a needler

The green light by the jackal is coming from the jackal farther in back... it is clear the farther one is using a plasma pistol.

Edit: If you guys haven't you should look at it with your brightness all the way up.

and why do we care what gun the jackle has as long as its nothing new?

  • 07.19.2004 11:03 PM PDT

THATS NOT WHAT THE CARBINE LOOKS LIKE! look at the elite next to it. THAT is a carbine.

The needler cups your hand sorta..The gun that jackel is holding is cuping his hand.
If you know what the Plasma rifle looks like then you would know it is longer at the top and that part would stick out some.

oh i c. yea it is the needler. i had to zoom in to see it but it is the needler. wit all the shadows and everything it looks longer than it really is. also how can he carry a 2 handed weapon wit the shield? he would he have to use one or the other unlike how he usually just pokes his pistol out the side of the shield when defending and shoots it. kinda pointless. i think only the elites carry the covie carbine. jackels carry pistols and needlers along wit the grunts.

ummm no. that green light is the scope.and the Jackals are carrying that shield generator because of their PHYSICAL WEAKNESS. and the shield generator is just a wristband that generates a force field. the force field doesnt weigh anything. its energy. stop trying to make me look stupid. youre making youself look dumb

Forget it. Arguing with people I will never meet, in bursts of text, is completely retarded. I'm going to go write a letter.

Everyone look again you will see that its the needler..

  • 07.19.2004 11:07 PM PDT

[color=red] It looks like a needler, but its green. its possible they changed the color. if you look at some of the pictures of the new elites from early production of halo 2, the plasma rifle was gold. [/color]

exactly. it is retarded. but who started it? so whos the retard around here?

Thank you for finally admitting it's a Needler. The Jackal can carry any one handed weapon. That includes the Plasma Pistol, Plasma Rifle, and the Needler. The Needler is not a two handed weapon. Have you not seen the E3 2004 MP demo?

  • 07.19.2004 11:08 PM PDT

I'll be on my own side.

yes it can only be a plasma rifle,pistol or needler.

oh the Jackals use any of the old Covie weapons from Halo 1. they dont use Carbines or the Brute weapons(obviously)

Look at the shadow of the gun the jackal is holding, that will prove that the mystery gun is a needler.

It's a Needler look at the muzzle it's shaped exactly like the new needler. If it was a new gun Bunige wouldn't put it in becasue they know we scan every pic they give us.
