Why do some of you ppl hate the flood so much? I mean the popcorn things are simple. The fat guys nearly kill their own side. And if you get a shotgun you can kill the ones with weapons like *Snaps fingers* that. So I'm asking you ppl who hate the flood why? I like killing the flood a lot, but I don't hate them. So why do you hate the flood?

I dunno, they arent...I just like covenant, its a war between humans and covenant, not flood, and they are easy to kill so killing them is just annoying and repetitive.

simply because there too cool, Just when you think you had the game down here come the flood and you have to completly change up your stratagy. Omg i love the 3 way battles so intense and just down right sick. Bungie...I think im in love.

Einstein
Do not worry about your difficulties in Mathematics. I can assure you mine are still greater.

I dont like them because they go suicide and jump at you and hit you and the only things good against them are shotgun, rocket launcher, pistol and the two plasma things.

My two cents for you

Ya I know, so you kick their ass, and they keep coming, all you do is move around, shoot your shotgun, and ya....
but I have to admit, the library on legendary was quite challenging and kinda fun, and I dont hate the flood, just dislike them

The flood are just annoying to me, but on any level except 343GS and the library, watching the flood fight elites is awesome. Especially a gold elite with a plasma sword.

They add to the story and all, but we hate them because of The Library. That's why I do.

I dont hate em, like i hate their colour, not like the bright covenant, i know THEY REALLY EASY, take em out with a pistol. umm one thing i hate is the popcorn guys really hurt with no shields on, damn, so hard on legendary that way.
i prefer to face the covenant and flood at same time, that way I KILL THEM ALL
I BASH THEIR GUTS, BREAK THEIR SKULLS, DROWN THEM IN BLOOD!

Funny you say that you like fighting the flood in this thread, but you say you're never in the mood for the flood levels in the other thread/poll "Halo 2 Enemies." :o

I don't hate them, harsh word. I dislike them. It probably has to do with the Library being so darn repetetive. And when I first found them on Guilty Spark, it took me awhile to get out of the level. Oh, and I hate that music that plays when they come in. It goes good with them, but it's stressful in a way. Other then that I don't hate them. They're actually pretty cool on the last 3 levels. I love the 4 way battles, so much fun. It still amazes me to stand back and watch the flood, sentinels, and Covenant battle it out. The flood are also cool because they put a huge plot twist in the game, and they have a different tactic. So my feelings are mixed.

Naturally, the flood are gawd-awful. They are more of a -blam!- to kill than you say them to be. Legendary they take just about 1 shot at close range to knock em over, and anotherone to finish em. Heck, library level, i only packed human pistol and shotugn, as those are the only 2 effective weapons against the flood. Pistol actually works wonders at long range. Yea, rockets work, but its easier finding pistol ammo than shotgun. AR takes a whole clip to down a flood, grenades usually backfire from those fatties, and cov weapons are just a waste of space.

Personally I liked the plot twist... the flood were a nice touch... when they first appeared i was tripping

Although, all you need is a shotgun and some shells and thoese moldy pieces of bread are toast.

My main beef with the flood is that u could sit there with a shotgun and whipe out so many but if u dont kill the one with a shotgun or with a rocket launcher than yur dead and if yur shield is down on legendary those popcorn guys or the flood cuz thats really wut they are kill u so fast so my main problem is just there really really really annoying

I think killing the flood is kinda boring cuz they really don't have any tactics.

The flood added something though... it separated it from ending up like your typical Sci-Fi shooter... aka Breed (that game blows donkeys for pesos)

They're zombies so they're not supposed to have tactics... all they think about is eating.

Oh, and they definitally helped with the reflexes... the crazy bastards that would jump at you from across the room.... that $hit helped me out a grib when it came to multi-player.... it helped me to be the dominating force that I am today.

*Disclaimer*

I have retired from the Halo circut due to mass whoopage
