In Response To: what WAS the needler designed for..........? (One of Bungies mindless bitches.) More of a single player weapon. Halo needlers are for the connoisseur of crispy pink explosions. There is nothing to beat emptying an entire clip into an unfortunate and relishing the series of pink explosions that twitch its body, up the wall, across the cieling, and back down the other wall. There is a room in AotCR that has a central area with stairs either end that leads into a second floor that is packed with Elites and Grunts. Clear out the side areas to left and right of the central area (a stealth approach is best but, at some stage, things will go noisy when you clear out the Jakals). Then take the right hand passage and jump up onto the ledge on the side. You can see into the central area. The Covenant inside can shoot at you but rarely hit. Unload clip fulls of needles and listen to massive chain reactions of needles and dropped plasmas. The screams add a delightful chorus. Its pretty spectacular. I hope bungie restore the Halo style graphics: glassy needles, transparent pink trails, and crisp explosions. The h2 needler fired felt-tip drawn blobs. Yuk. And we need the glassy tinkles as they bounce off surfaces. |
