Its a fun gun glad to see it make a comeback

So the needle rifle with the cosmetic of a carbineā€¦interesting.

Personally I would have loved to see the actual design of the needle rifle return but this is good enough for me

Uhā€¦ what?

Glad to hear it! :smiley:

23

I bet itā€™s a Warzone Carbine variant in the end. Which will suck, but I hope 343 proves me wrong.

The Needle Rifle was an excellent addition to the Halo Sandbox and it was an interesting weapon to use.

Iā€™m still annoyed that 343 havenā€™t replicated the glass shattering effects made by neddles in Reach. They sounded so vicious!

Wonderful, another gun Iā€™d like to use that I wonā€™t get to unlockā€¦

Idk, the longer you play and the more silver packs you open, the smaller the pool of ā€œRandomā€ unlocks becomes. Your odds of unlocking it can only improve every time you get a permanent unlock.

As much as I loved the needle rifle in Reach, it was underpowered compared to the UNSC counterpart, the DMR.
DMR took 5 shots, 4 for shields, 1 for the noggin.
Neddle rifle tookā€¦7 or 8. So 7 for shields and 1 for the head.
The fire rate (and bloom) on the needle rifle didnā€™t bring it on part with the DMR, so I rarely used it outside of Campaign.

You know it.

33

While a Needle Rifle would be pretty interesting to see, this looks like itā€™s just a skin variant that happens to have a modified projectile color. Regardless of which it might be, itā€™s still damn cool looking.

34

I feel like itā€™s more of carbine variant or maybe even storm rifle variant. I just like the possibilities of having new carbine variants that sounds cool.

35

Will it go automatic is the real question.

36

The return of the Needle Rifle from Halo Reach? Well you people rejoice like itā€™s your dream come true, Iā€™ll sit here with my carbine and wait forever for a DMR Req unlock for Warzone :stuck_out_tongue:
