SPv2 Collective Questions & Information Thread

wow. That surprises me that there is a jackal sniper, supreme commander, or any of the halo 2 "new" elite ranks in the SPv2. Good job anyways CMT and dropping in a few new stuff on the upcoming Single Player V2.

Needler

Though the Needler has many variants, the core technology remains the same. The deivce fires explosive needles with magnetic guidance, which detonate a few seconds after impact. The needles also have an ability to fuse together and release all thier energy at once if several are stuck to the same target, resulting in a very powerful explosion.

Energy Sword

Though mostly ceremonial, the Covenant Energy Sword is a lethal close-range weapon. It directs plasma into a two-bladed melee weapon, which can easily rip through most kinds of armor and metal. The weapon is used almost exclusively by Elites. Most units are outfitted with fail-safe detonators - if the sword is active while dropped, it will dispirse its plasma, rendering the weapon useless.

Unconfirmed Weapon

Rarely seen except on high risqué missions deep into the covenant position, some believe it is a hunter-only weapon. While speculated on what exactly this weapon is, it has been confirmed to fire a form of radioactive fuel-rod ammunition. Some theorize it is a form of hand-held hunter beam or cannon.

this may sound old...but those needler's needles are still blue and have electricity running through them, right??

and, when we kill an enemy with an Energy sword, it's useless considering, we know they have the sword in their "hands" and they drop it and it's rendered useless. they don't drop more than one weapon and therefore, leaving us NO ENERGY SWORD??? elaborate on that information........cause I'm feeling dissapointed and pretty confused about this.

This Mysterious Hunter only weapon....we're not talking about the ones we saw in SPv1, right? Cause that wouldn't make sense if you did that and then called it uncomfirmed (so, I guess it couldn't be that)?? not saying that isn't freakishly AWESOME. just weird why you'd hide it.....and hence that Beam or Cannon....doesn't this mean there could be three different types of Hunter weapons??

well, i expect those answered. Other than that. FUCKING AWESOME, I LOVE YOU +++++++REP! (If I could.....well.....I guess just +rep for you!)

It would just be an "extention" of an old weapon because you already have the grunt FRC, and like i said, the hunters.

It makes perfect sense. If i had to put money on it, i would bet that gun.

omg i just thought of a cool brute weapon upon reading AAA's post. i cant wait to hear from someone about how noobish i am and that itll never be in SPV2!!!


brute energy lance
~~~~~~~~~~~
a brute version of an energy sword. when it strikes you, it isnt an instant kill, but will take down all of a shield and much of your health. the weapon detonates on impact, leaving the brute to use its sidearm.

COMMENCE FLAMING!!!
Seriously though. How could that POSSIBLY be effective? A one time only use weapon? Its madness! It makes no sense. The covies already have an energy sword anyway. The splitter idea i had would make sense as a brute weapon, but you can see that even Masterz dosent want it. So said "energy lance" aint gonna happen.

The new ******* will be cool though.

no beam rifle, carbine, or drones right?
