The only problem I have with this idea is that it would look very strange in the "cops and robbers" scenarios that some people make using the infection gametype.
I think it would look fine if the robbers were the flood. Or would it be "very strange" that the robber isn't a black guy? Why is always the black guy that is bad, huh?

Well how, if Spartans can't be infected? I think, unless someone can prove me wrong.
Well maybe in the infection gametype you would play as a marine, in that case the marines could be infected. I don't think anyone is sure how the gameplay is going to be in Reach. The key idea is that we get to play as the flood and actually get infected when we die. Whether it would be a good a idea get the floods abilities or not is still up for debate.


how about just for the sake of gameplay the spartans can be infected.

Two things. How sure are we that the fall of reach book is really what this game is going to be besides the speculation. Also, does the multiplayer really follow the story so long as it remains halo themed?

I agree, I highly doubt Bungie would release a game without adding their own twists to the plot. I think we have to stop acting like we know exactly is going to be on this game.

Perception is everything.

What makes you people think spartans can't be infected. There were no known records of the flood til halo 1, and in halo 1-3 we only see one spartan. He just happened to not get infected.

I'd be fine with a more floody look to the spartans or the elites, as long as it didn't get in the way of how we could modify the gametype, I mean, I don't want the only attack to be massive floodified hands, nor would the super long jumping stuff be always needed.

You could still use guns and all, so it wouldn't be that big of a deal. (Human flood use guns a lot)

It would be really cool if there was the option of both weapons or just flood being flood.

What do you think of playing as the flood with all their sweet ninja abilities and stuff.

Challenge me to a Hawaiian Punch chugging contest. I dare you.

Too bad Bungie has a long track record of only partially listening to there players.

All I ask is that you don't try to capture me.

Has it occured to anyone the Flood wasn't discovered by the time of the Reach events?
Besides, playing as a flood would totally ruin it. It would be childish and really a wet nerd-dream.
I hope bungie never will make any flood playable in any way.
Sweet, I agree with someone who has the same avatar. Achievement Unlocked!

But wet-dreams are really the best ones now aren't they?

I just think it could be a forced colour that changes you character model to have flood stuff on it. I don't really like the idea of having it set as Flood all the time. That's my two cents.

In the book "The Flood" Master Chief nearly gets infected. One of the small flood penetrates through his armor and goes for his spinal chord. Cortana shoots some electricity and pops the little sucker. So yes, Spartans could get infected. And they would be VERY dangerous!

There hasn't been much contact between Spartan and Flood though.

Spartans can be infected. Chief nearly got floodified in the book Halo : The Flood

  • 06.29.2009 11:40 AM PDT

Question: Should the flood have weapons on this gametype or not?
