From the video it looked as if the needles also moved really quickly to their target... No more of that flying slow threw the air crap...

The new needler sports a larger "clip" and fires at almost the same rate as the submachine gun. It's needles are smaller and move at higher velocity.

Unfortunately, since it was fired near to point blank it's homing abilities and how easy it is to avoid are unknown.

Play as a team win as a team or die as a team!


It has a bigger clip and well Draerdan answered ur question.

Interviews have said that the pistol is 'missing' when they play the game. The magnum pistol from "First Strike" may be what you are thinking about. They have not been announced either.

the needler is a complete waste of time no matter how you slice it. And i did see in a gamer magazine interview of a halo 2 tester that the pistol has been completely replaced by the battlerifle. HOPEFULLY this is not true, considering the pistol is my weapon of choice. Maybe itll be less powerful, but hopefully itll be the same old pistol as in Halo 1

The battle rifle pretty much is the pistol but in a more real fourm. IF the pistol makes it it wont have the zoom or the power it once had. Also how is the needler a wast of time its better all around which personally i think makes a sweet a$$ gun , more power,faster shooting, bigger clip = more death
