I could care less about what the Flood can and can not do as long as they return.

A: I don't think they should as they have no motor skills... you see the way they walk and shoot. If they could drive... it should be all spaztik and swervy and
B: I don't want the flood back... it should be an epic battle between Humans and Covenent, and the Flood would just detract from that.

The flood will be back. It was confirmed by bungie long ago. I don't like them. I think they should drive vehicles. Why not?

NO the flood should not be able to drive vehicles. If your race is too inept to develop your own weapons and/or vehicles you shouldn't have the priviledge of driving someone else's (i.e. warthog, banshee, tank, or ghost)

The problem I have with the flood is that they're brainless. Give me a fight that takes skill and tactics... and I don't consider blasting my shotgun as quickly as possible neither a skill nor a tactic.

If indeed the flood do show up in Halo 2 I certainly hope that their presence is kept to an absolute minimum.

i most certainly agree with jlb295. i guess i dont mind if the flood are in halo 2 i just dont want them to be as huge an impact as they were in the first one. and no they should not and cannot be able to drive or else bungie will have destroyed a perfect game.


the flood suck.

If the Flood lands on earth will all the people to eat then you will fight them often..I like the Flood they were not all that hard to kill..they were berserk and willing to throw themselfs regardless at you..There not hard to kill..Easier than the covies.

thats why they suck. no difficulty. atleast with the covenant you get a variety of fighting styles between the different classes and with the advanced a.i. itll be even better

lol i think it'd almost look wierd seeing the Flood drive vehicles, but who cares. i just wanna see them return, and this time hopefully they're really tough.

other than the little floods im ok with the flood, their sort of challenging. A flood driving a car, thats gonna look a little weird.

the flood driving vehicles... hmm.... I think that the only way the flood could drive a veihicle is if it trans formed like the captin did incorparating the vehicle into itself now that would be freaky.

lol, I doubt they would be very good drivers. I think it would be something funny for an egg but I don't really seeing it happen in the game.

  • 07.25.2004 10:11 PM PDT

i need some sleep.....

i hate bees...

no rest for the weary...

Did you forget what GS 343 told you.

[color="pink"]The Flood are already hard at work repairing your vessel. Its parasitic nature belies the Flood's intelligence. [/color]

If the flood can repair the Pillar of Autumn and eventually fly it. I think they would have no trouble driving. Where Bungie lets them is a completely different story. I have a feeling we will go to the now extinc former Flood homeworld (yes they did have one).

Sure it would be funny and all but whats the point? Those Flood can run and jump like no ones business, they dont wanna mess around with vehicles, they just wanna kill their "food" as fast as possible and take over a new host. I mean, they are a virus, they are "programmed" to kill and reproduce, not find the most efficient way to do so. But it would be damn funny, i mean, if you shot a combat form in a warthog and then it died, and the warthog kinda just driffted off, but the then it came back to life again and started driving again! it was be tricky
