i get tired of people constantly asking if the flood will be in Halo 2. well here's the answer to your question: THEY WILL. even Bungie said they would when asked in an interview they said Flood-80% chance, 343 Guilty Spark-100%. now with the confirmed inclusion of another Halo in H2, that chance seems even more likely.

i want to put another idea to rest as well. some people have asked if there will be flood on earth. the answer:THEY WON'T. there are several resons for this.

1. as far as we know, none of the other Halos have been searched by the covenant. so if all of the flood were killed in the destruction of Halo 04, there would't be any flood awake out of their long hibernation (which is what happened when the covies searched the installation in 343 GS. they must have found the flood and woke them up somehow). so there wouldn't be any flood to get to earth.

2. if the flood did manage to take over a covie ship and escape the desruction of Halo 04, why would they go to earth? why wouldn't they just go to the covenant homeworlds, since it is a covenant ship and they would probably have a better chance of getting through the defenses since they would know the authorization codes. plus the covie ship's commander would probably be infected and his knowledge would have the covie homeworlds' locations. as far as we know, the only human who knew of earth's location was Keyes, and the flood killed him before he told them.

3. if they did go to earth, the flood ship would immediatly be destroyed by earth's orbital defenses and the UNSC fleet. the only chance the flood would have of landing on earth would be disguising themselves as a covie landing ship and trying to get through and land. but if they did get through and land, the covenant and marines would quickly realize what they were and would go about killing them and blowing up their ship. and they would because it says in The Flood (the book) that in an engagement between marines and covies that a group of flood attacked them. both groups killed the flood first, and then went back to killing each other. and earth WOULD know of the flood because the MC would tell them when he and the other spartans returned to Earth to warn them about the Covenant invasion.

4. and anyway, it would make for a really lame story twist ;)

so i hope i've cleared a few things up for you and that this post will result in fewer ill-informed questions that have been answered many times before.

thanks. it seems that some people haven't read the books or just didn't pay attention to the story line in Halo 1 because they keep asking the same questions over and over again

I would like to add that just because they will be in the game, doesn't mean they will have a very big role. They will be a big part of the plot, but that doesn't men you get to fight on the Halo that much, or pump lead into millions of flood.
