but in the new video the SPARTAN gave the Elite a whole clip of needles but it didn't explode as one, but one at a time. Is this how it's going to be?
BTW, the new needler is definitely gonna rock some socks.
yeah, it's not as visually appealing, but it's more functional. the needles seemed to go faster, and the time it took for them to explode seemed shorter. how many times has it happened to you in HALO where you pump some guy FULL of needles, only to have him turn around and waste you before they blow up? man, that really aggravated me. this way seems to make the likelyhood of that happening much less since they'll be exploding much quicker. we'll have to wait and see how the homing capabilities are. and yeah, it would be nice if you don't get caught up in the blast...although half the fun of the needler was using it against groups of people. lots of secondary damage. we didn't get to see him melee with it, so i'm still hoping they'll include the feature where needles will become imbedded when contact is made with the melee. but yeah, the needler is going to kick so much ass. SO MUCH ASS!
