Re: Points on your H3 review (long)

In Response To: Re: Points on your H3 review (long) (Gravemind) : The H1 Needler might've been great in Campaign, but as Han Solo said, good : against remotes in one thing, but good against the living is something : else. I'm not sure how much multiplayer you've played of the Halo games, : but the Needler was pretty much worthless in both Halo 1 & 2 in MP, : unless of course you caught an enemy unaware from behind or in a narrow : hallway and couldn't dodge (which was rare). It works wonders in Halo 3, : however, due to increased tracking & Needle velocity. The : "superdetonation" being instantly lethal adds to its enhanced : efficacy. Personally, I think the perfect Needler would be the Halo 1 : Needler, but with its tracking and Needle velocity improved to what it is : in Halo 3. I used the Needler in Halo 1 multiplayer and in Lan parties all the time. I used it because no one else did and the enemy players were not expecting it. My Nephew was almost in tears one game after I needled him to death 10 times in a row. There was something wonderfully entertaining about filling an enemy up with needles and watching the three explosions. In Halo 2 MP I enjoyed using the Needler on Midship, Gemini and Foundation. Even though I pretty much loathed the Halo 2 Needler, I could be pretty effective with it in the three maps I mentioned.
