I think new flood should be in the game like the one's from HALO WARS!!!! PEOPLE LETS TAKE SOME OF THAT!!!!!

There were no flood on Reach. There is no way they can add something as huge as the flood to a prequel like Reach without destroying the canon, something Bungie has stated they do not want to do.

Now playing as flood in a multiplayer infection game, that I could possibly see.

It was never stated that Brutes are absolutely not in Reach.

You never saw or heard about Engineers in Halo 2 and 3, yet they were still in New Mombasa in ODST, right?

They are going to be telling a part of that story that we have not yet heard. A high profile mission like claiming the crystal found by the Spartans might not be trusted to involve Brutes.

But fighting the resistance forces around the generators and all over the grounds at the many Reach bases? Brutes have and can do that.

Brutes were introduced in halo 2. If Bungie were to put brutes in Halo Reach, then they would have put them on Halo: Combat Evolved, seeming as it takes place moments after Reach was 'Glassed'.

Again...personaly, I saw NO brutes.

They fleet that was at the first Halo was an Elite controlled fleet which was why therre was no Brutes on the first Halo. Brutes could still have fought on Reach. The chief only first encounters them on the Unyielding Hierophant but he never fought on the ground at Reach. There could have been Brutes on Reach and he wouldnt have known. Im not saying there will be or should be Im just merely stating that there very easily could be.

well, the reason you didnt see that many engineers in halo 2 or 3 is that the games took place during the battle for new mombassa while ODST (night) is after the covenant has taken control of new mombassa. and thats when the engineers move in to study the technology and learn as much as they can and steal as much info as they can.

I'm just a guy like you that plays halo.

I'm glad i'll be killing elites again, was getting sick of killing brutes...

  • 10.06.2009 12:21 PM PDT

The unyielding hierophant is that the place he and the other remaining spartans blew up taking a massive covenant armada of hundreads of ships out in the blast?

It wouldn't break the canon... if we're playing as a new group of Spartans (maybe the 5 added to Red Team between TFoR and FS?) in this game, the story can be totally new.

If we encounter Flood as different Spartans it could be explained very clearly why the Chief didn't hear about them in Halo 1. Well actually since it would take the message the same time to travel to Halo as the PoA did, it would possibly not make it there until after Halo 1, or at least after the PoA crashed, and then there would be no way to recieve the transmission.

I used Flood in my Reach script and didn't break the canon... say the outbreak zone becomes quarantined and glassed before the Flood can escape from their underground tomb?

Maybe all those who encountered the Flood could have been killed, trapped, or lost in space/a facility? There's lots of ways for Bungie to squeeze the Flood in... I hope that they do as long as they behave more like in Halo 1 and the novels.

Good point. I think it's up to bungie and how creative they would like to be with the canon.

If this IS Bungies last 'Halo' based game, then i would hope to see this perticular game cover Reach (obviously will), Ghosts of Onyx and First Strike. Then we can see how it all happened. - If you havnt read the books of course -
