We have 3 confirmed so far. Crater, Security Zone and the Tsavo Highway themed map. Obviously we'll want a little bit more than that. Instead of Covenant, facing the Flood would be an opportunity for a different level and gameplay. I got the idea after playing 343 Guilty Spark(Halo 1) at the very end. The entire section of that level was almost arena like. I could imagine Flood jumping down from the sides to attack. all sides. Or if you've played Backwash the Halo 2 swamp map. Same idea.

It would mix things up a bit. What do you all think?

Halo: CE Anniversary Achievement Idea
C-C-C-CANNON BREAKER!
Let Sgt. Johnson die on Halo.

That would be pretty sweet. The Flood in Halo 1 scared the crap out of me!

I think that would be awsome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That would probably be my favorite firefight map!!!! Just I don't think them jumping from all sides would be that fun, a little to hard. But still cool.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

no kidding


yeah that would be pretty cool but would you get infected and then die?

  • 06.21.2009 8:10 PM PDT

Don't deny your inevitable death.

That would be awesome, but halo 3-style flood were way too easy.

  • 06.21.2009 8:19 PM PDT

Stuffz....

hmmm...sounds like a cool idea

  • 06.21.2009 8:21 PM PDT

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

Isolation esque, or Lockout esque, or Cold Storage ish.

I personally do not enjoy killing the Flood that much but I do think it would be a really unique map to add to the collection. Would be a nice change of pace after doing Fireight a lot and killing Covenant.

The human element always mucks things up.

It would be fun until that one little infection form latched on to you or your buddies.

I see what you are saying and it does make sense, but remember can play as Johnson. If you go by facts of what is happening we wouldn't be able to. So if Bungie really wanted to they could make one.

Cool! I didnt know there were flood maps! How will they be brought to the map though?(the ships bring the brutes grunts etc.) Maybe infected ships or like at the end of halo 3.(The crash landing things)

Like I said, if you remember the geometry of the last part of 343 GS, theyt could just come down from the sides. In a Cold Storage/Library esque map, from those little openings in the walls. Infected High Charity map could work well too.

And to one of the previous posts, it doesn't matter if the Flood came to Earth yet or not, Firefight isn't canon. So it wouldn't matter. The level doesn't even need to be on Earth.

that would be great! until you get one stuck on your head

That would be awesome to have a Flood styled map! I doubt if it would happen, but it would still be oh so sweet to have.

  • 06.21.2009 8:55 PM PDT

that would be really awesome.. add some variety to firefight unfortunately bungie never thinks of the cool things. but yeah just have a map simply called High Charity and have the flood jumpin in from all over, itd make sense cuz the flood are already infested. and who cares if itd be canon, itd still be cool its not like they're doing it on campaign.. in multiplayer 16 spartans kill each other and that isnt canon. teuche. maybe they will release something like that for DLC

but actually make the flood scary.. flood are ab-so-lutely re-tard-ed in halo 3 and not very cool in halo 2.

I kinds agree, but compared to the Halo 2 Flood, these guys are alright

Why would you want Flood? Without shields you can die in one hit...
