Assuming the Flood are in HALO 2, and that the book "First Strike" acts as a prequel to the game, what do you think will be developed from the information doctor Halsey gave master chief to combat the flood. Assuming First Strike is a prequel, I believe that will lead to the implementation of an anti-flood weapon, not like the shotgun and not bio-weapons (it's a game), some new projectile weapon made to deal with large numbers of enemies at medium to short range. Opinions, please?

I thought the weapons in Halo were quite effective against the Flood, you have your frag grenades which could take out multiple targets, the shotgun worked wonders on the combat forms and the assault rifle/pistol were good at disarming them (shooting off the melee arm or the arm they held the gun in)!

That weapon that you described at the end of your post sounds a lot like the rocket launcher...

umm...I call it a shotgun.

More likely they would have developed a chemical agent that would kill the Flood organism.

I thought of that right after I posted that. I just think they spent a lot of time on that topic in the book, and I cant help but think its for a reason, I feel the same about Halseys "mission" with Kelly

Hey! Wait a minute...! The flood was on Halo and Halo was destroyed so how can the flood be in Halo 2!??! Besides Halo 2 is on the earth... Cause Halo was destroyed and the covenants started invading the earth and eliminate the -blam!- sapiens (human beings)...
