I think a lot of peoples first reaction to the Hydra was that it isn’t a very good weapon. Quinn Delhoyo MP Designer shows the hidden power of the Hydra:

That was freakin sick. Thanks. I’m going to try that out NOW.
Interesting… Never thought to use it like biotics.
Seems broken though, like the lock-on should break the second the hard-aim is lost, I dunno just my two cents.
Wait!?! So this gun actually does something? I definitely need to pick it up next time. I usually just walk over it because it didn’t seem that great to me at first use.
i got a kill with it like that once and thought it was pure luck lol. Never realised at the time it was intended to be used in that way.
Ill have to give it a proper go next time i pick it up and practice some stuff with it now after seeing that
Ooh that looks nice, kinda like the old Brute Shot with the “hitting targets around corners” bit just with an actual lock-on. Seems neat.
I’d imagine that thing would be just what the doctor ordered to take out pesky camping snipers. XD
Surprised me too. I had thought it was strange that this new power weapon didn’t really seem special. How wrong I was.
Can someone upload on YouTube? I have limited internet.

You can look on XBL. GT: Deez
I actually knew about this, believe it or not. I find the Hydra to be a bit too good due to this feature. So many times I turn around a corner only to have Hydra missiles already hitting me in the face before I can even spot the enemy.
hail hydra

ooh i miss the brute shot. One weapon that really needs to return lol
People didn’t realize it could lock on to enemies? I mean it didn’t quite click with me to angle off to the side like that to make it easier to shoot around cover (lol because it was the one thing I liked about Frontlines: Fuel of War) but no one saw the lock on part or am I misunderstanding?

i think every one knew it locked on, but didnt quite realise you could throw your aim off to the side or higher to curve the rockets around terrain like that
Yeah at first I thought it was awful, once I figured out you sit back with it while poking around corners waiting for a lock on it became easy. You just jump out, fire two shots, and thrust back into cover. Really easy to rack up kills with it.

Yeah. Didn’t realize that it was such a massive lock on that it would make those drastic curves that you can use to shoot enemies behind cover that make it an effective weapon at longer ranges.
did no one try ads on this weapon? how did no one know this was a function! although i never thought of using it as a mortar or to bend around cover…
So it’s basically the Human equivalent of the annoying Plasma Launcher from Halo Reach.
That’s great…
