I know a lot of people don't like the Flood, but I have a question for those who enjoy playing with the Flood.
What traits, behaviors, if any, have you observed in the Flood? Any glitches?
Here's what I have observed:
-Carrier Forms occasionally will jump. I've encountered this on The Covenant while I was leading them to the snowy area for the half-infected War Chieftain glitch. Also, if you give Arbiter the Beam Rifle and get him on the back of the Mongoose, he will actually shoot it.
-Sometimes, Infection Forms will not attack you if there are any active combat forms alive. By keeping at least 1 combat form alive and dismembering it's whip arm, you don't have to worry about them.
-The half-infected War Chieftain's AI seems to be mixed Brute and Flood AI. He always charges at you and he gets in a berserk state when you approach him. He is compatible with all weapons, just like the Flood, but he can't use the Energy Sword. He retains combat abilities, such as vehicle boarding, and he can jump very high.
-On Halo, Tank Forms seem to have strong minds, able to resist the game (which kills off all the Flood) for several seconds before shutting down.
I have yet to encounter anything extraordinary in Ranged and Stalker Forms.
