Quote: ADDITIONS/CHANGES IN THIS RELEASE

Weapons
-Plasma pistol nerfed immensely. Don't know how this slipped past everybody, but its primary fire was wrecking everything. Damage has been severely cut and fire rate has been capped. Charged shot unaffected.
-Battery life of all Plasma weapons reduced.
-Battle Rifle, Needler, and Impaler have new animations.
-Needler needles now appear properly during reload.
-Needler needles now do a little less damage to Elite shields.
-Pistol has a new model and skin.
-Pistol's autoaim radius and rate of fire have been increased. It's much more effective at closer ranges now, as intended.
-Battle Rifle's rate of fire decreased slightly.
-Plasma Burst's crosshair modified to better reflect its nature.
-Plasma Burst even further nerfed; less damage, slower rate of fire and fewer shots to overheat.

Units
-Hunters now take three Needler supercombines or two sniper shots/direct rocket hits/Impaler supercombines to kill. They're also more resilient against the Plasma Rifle.
-Steath Elite Majors now use Eviscerators in place of Plasma Spreads.
-Zealots (Elite commanders) wielding Plasma Rifles now wear the proper headgear.
-Zealot shields now cause Imapler needles to detonate on contact.
-Jackals with Plasma Beams have recieved a much-needed upgrade (better accuracy, higher RoF, etc.)
-Dead characters' dropped weapons contain far less extra ammo (ammo still in clip/battery unchanged.)

Particle Effects
-Elite/Cyborg shields now have lens flares. They're very sexy.
-Fuel Rod Gun's projectile trail redone to better match the effect set's overall style and to differentiate it from the new Wraith projectile.
-Hunter lights and effects now match the FRG particle set's color scheme.
-New vehicle explosion effects.
-Banshee weapons now use updated particle sets.

Known problems
-The SMG's sound will cut out and occasionally do weird things. This is just the way Halo CE handles looping sounds; there's nothing I can really do about it.
-The Pistol uses the old model/skin in third person. This is due to an issue with the new model which could not be fixed in time for scheduled release.
-Marines die very, very quickly in a50's interiors. Halfway due to higher damage ratios, halfway due to the way Bungie scripted those encounters. Can't change it without making them uber-powerful for the rest of the level.

You can't be serious. I hated the look and animations of the new pistol. Sorry, but I hated it.
The rest of the mod is absolutely awesome though. The only thing I didn't enjoy was whatever the carbine was. It was almost impossible to get a good kill with it.

I wasn't fond of the anims either, but the model did look very high res

Shame on you, these anims are hot.

Lol, there's not really all that much gameplay in c10, its mainly a level just used to introduce the flood through a lot of cutscenes.

To be honest, that is the worst C10 mod in existance, reasons:
1. All weapons have different HUD's.
2. THEY ARE H3 TAGS.
3. Sphinxbio DID NOTHING, but throw in tags.

H3 tags are way overused. This is why I like this mod, it doesn't try and replicate Halo 3 in anyways.

ya idiots like sphinx dont know alot about h3 tags balance wise...

also moose is not a idiot for using h3 and h3 styled tags >:p

because he designs his maps around it

welll, doesnt the huge majority of halo ce players not care if a map is balenced? and just the fact that there is halo 3 things in halo 1 makes it awesome to them? and and and i never got the whole thing with getting more downloads than someone else. its not like it makes you popular or anything? i do agree that the halo 3 weapons are vury pretty and i also agree that they are overused but meh. its all up to the community and who makes the maps i guess :P

edit: 3rd picture is my favorite <3 bloomy-ish

it's ok, i've never like the a50 level anyway =P b30 is my favorite, but i didn't really get why on b40 we started with a human pistol and a covenant plasma rifle.
