Quality seemed fine to me, but YouTube's processing certainly butchers my videos.

Anyway, as for the needler, yes that was a frustrating watch, with the needler only occasionally making someone go bang. Some of that may've been to do with enemy evasion behaviour, which I assume is dialled up to the max on Legendary, but I did get the sense that your needler was only vaguely locking on, and even then, things were bad.

Also very striking was the near total lack of aesthetics on the sound front. The auto-firing sounds crudely industrial, in contrast to the silky-smooth ftt-ftt-ftt of the original. And whereas the H1 bang is gloriously satisfying and often doubles-up or even triples-up, here it seems like an unremarkable muted bang, and I'm not sure I saw a single double, let alone a triple.

Well, here's hoping someone comes up with a mod for you that restores something like the original needling experience. Meanwhile you might enjoy my next instalment on the rockslide megabattling front, possibly coming out today, as it's going to feature a lot of needling!
