Subject: What if the flood infected Master Chief?

Would you have to play as SGT johnson to fight Master Chief and disinfect him later? Try to change the storyline through Master Chief getting infected by the flood.

You know, when you're having a bad day, you just gotta let yourself go!

Does the flood gain his intelligence? If not, then it won't matter. The spore that took over him would still be another mindless organism, just with better armor.

The humans would kill him easily.

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

"Disinfect him"? Are you ill?

Master Chief's Super Steroids+Natural Super Steroids in the Flood = Devastating to the humans. Gravemind takes in all of the intelligence from the victims that the flood kills and he controls them, right? So, therefore, he would gain Master Chief's intelligence.

Disinfect? Right.

ME2 was known for stupidity and being retarded

He can't get infected because of his shield.

Couldn't they just take down his shields and get into his armor?

  • 11.13.2010 12:15 PM PDT

Game over.

He almost infected in one of the books.

  • 11.13.2010 1:48 PM PDT

He'd respawn

that would be one bad-ass flood.... plus we would be doomed

Something smells fishy...

A flood spore can only infect organic matter. Master Chief is a cyborg. So it depends on how much of him is controlled by machine.

Master Chief's brain, I guess, is mostly organic matter and not mostly machine. If his brain is mostly organic matter then it will potentially be taken over by a flood infection. If the Flood does indeed gain control of Master Chief's brain via infection he will no longer be under the command of the UNSC.

Master Chief is definitely a human wearing armor.

Nah Cortana would probably set his suit to auto self destruct, to kill him and the flood.

Sorry, but I'm kind of leaning towards Master Chief being a cyborg: http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/SPARTAN-II_Program

Don't be silly. He is human.

A cyborg would have mechanical components working internally alongisde organic components. The only metal in Chief's body is the coating on his bones and the Mjolnir suit he wears - both of which do not make him a cyborg.

A terminator is a cyborg, data from Star Trek is a cyborg. MC is not a cyborg.

Let that be the end of this nonesense

Thank You. It is obvious that Master Chief is Chuck Norris. How else could he do all the things he does without being Chuck Norris.

  • 11.17.2010 9:45 AM PDT

Lol...

  • 11.17.2010 9:50 AM PDT

If Master Chief were to be infected, then he would be severely weakened. Have you ever noticed that it can take several shot gun shells to take down a normal marine and it only take one or two shots to kill and infected one?

  • 11.17.2010 9:53 AM PDT

The best event in the Halo series was the grunt rebellion!

Listen to some of this on, this site.

If MC was infected he would be killed and the Gravemind would be so smart he'd win the war. BTW he is no cyborg, he is human and the only reason you can think he is one is because, he has a neural interface that let's him put Cortana "In his head".

  • 11.17.2010 12:56 PM PDT

If you cannot provide proof or simply cannot provide a rational, logical argument then don't say anything at all.

Master Chief is not a cyborg This is a list of the augmentations in the entire spartan II program: Grafting of ceramics onto skeletal structure to make bone nearly unbreakable, muscular enhancement, accelerated growth spurts, catalyic thyroid implants, occipital capillary reversal, and superconducting fabrication of neural dindrites to increase reflexes by over 300%. Next on the agenda upgrades to the MJOLNIR armor: The Mark V armor which the cheif wore in Halo: CE consisted of these upgrades: A larger fusion reactor which allowed for shields the second being the size and cabability of housing an entire "smart" AI constuct meaning the user could directly combine reflexes with the AI which had almost complete control of mathematics, information, and body control. Notice that the AI uplink is in the suit. That means Master Chief is not a cyborg. To answer the original question of the topic Cortana would probably overload his shielding sending an electric shock throughout the system, if it was already too late then she would likely trigger the suit's overload sequence which burns all evidence of the armor and its user. For sources of the above info see the Halo Encyclopedia (not halo wiki), Halo:The Flood (novel), or Halo:First Strike (novel)
