Good stuff, and a Needler that actually works!

I recorded a video in the first Bonus mission using only the Needler, unfortunately the video wouldn't render so I deleted it. I think I figured out what's wrong with the Campaign Evolved Needler? I used the Campaign Modifier feature to make me nearly invincible, it helps me stay alive longer while I play. I played on Legendary.

I noticed that each individual needle does more damage. I saw loads of grunts and elites get killed with 4 to 5 needles. I couldn't tell if the 7 needle super combine form the original game is present in the new game. I'll check this out this weekend. The lock-on and homing characteristics of the needles isn't accurate at all. I chased a grunt up a ramp, I was roughly 20 feet away, and I unloaded a full clip at the grunt and nearly all of them missed the grunt.

My only disappointment with the new game is the nearly useless and rather frustrating needler and the huge lack of combat dialogue from the marines and grunts. Without the combat dialogue, the game lacks personality and immersion on the battlefield. Hopefully Halo Studios, or a modder, will restore the campaign dialogue, if the audio files are actually in the new game, and restore the needler to its original configuration!
