| More needler evidence | |
| Posted By: Rockslider | Date: 6/9/11 8:13 a.m. |
In Response To: the audio is updated (kidtsunami) : so that's why the sound is different. Given that they've explicitly stated : that gameplay is not changing, I believe it is not changing. As I suggested in another post, they may be interpreting the word 'gameplay' in a fairly limited sense. And sure, they've updated the audio (voice acting excluded, thankfully). But consider this line of thought. By replacing the old weapon-related sound effects, that already suggests that they don't mind changing a prominent characteristic of the H1 combat experience. We can see also that they've changed the weapon appearances. In view of all this, it wouldn't be at all surprising if they'd also changed the firing characteristics. Indeed, having modernized the other things, I'd pretty much expect it. Here's additional evidence regarding the needler, which I really should've included in my opening post. At around 1:50 in the Exclusive movie, there's a needler being fired at one of two Elites. Those needles are reaching the Elite almost instantly, travelling way faster than in H1. I'm well used to taking Elites down with an H1 needler, and it just doesn't work that speedily. This is quite a different beast we've got. Modernized not just in sound and appearance, but also in its ability. However, what happens when you toggle to classic mode? Would needler characteristics revert to being exactly like in H1? I suspect so. In the Exclusive movie at around 2:37 there's footage of the SC beach landing getting toggled to classic. Just after the switch, a Grunt fires a needler and I can see the needles only travelling slowly like in H1.
