Halo 3's current Infection Game type is mainly when a player is Infected, they change armor color and have different physical attributes such as speed and gravity. The infected players are not scary and the only scary element they have is the element of surprise if they catch a player unaware.
The closest thing to zombies in halo universe of course is the dreaded Flood, The Flood as introduced is parasitic alien lifeforms which are the bane of both The Covenant and the Humans alike. The Flood presented a dreaded enemy whose sole purpose and intent is to infect all sentient life. We have all seen the infected Humans and Covenants in the campaigns. My Proposal is to do away with the current infection game type color change and when players become infected they change into a flood combat form. Flood Combat forms can present all the options but with the essence of Infection. The prospect of the Flood in multiplayer can present
a exciting and new gaming experience and will truly create a horror aspect in it.
Another change is to replace the current voice of the announcer for the games with the voice of gravemind in Halo 3 or a similar type of voice. Also the Infected have a new diseased HUD to show the feeling of infection. the options for the Game type should have all the old current options but also with a delayed infection option where the immediate players wont present as enemies shortly before the infection starts causing chaos. Also a new weather mechanic should be added to forge or the option the diseased flood mist as seen in campaigns to demonstrate the feel also flood growth spores and other external flood pores should be added.
Other possibilities for the game type are the small infection forms along with the combat forms. a new weapon could possibly be added is the Jackal Shield which can be used to defend against flood types. a new option is the hud radar can be malfunctioning which can provide scarier suspense to the game
Comment and offer ideas and support, hopefully we can have this game type in Halo 3 Reach
