Actually last night I was replaying the saga in Legendary and the Flood is so -blam!- annoying and stupid and come in huge hords that in middle of the 2nd part of the game I felt so very happy every time Covenants appeared because they kicked some serious Flood ass, however the flood eventually would take them out and I actually felt SAD!.
There was this ONE battle inside the Maw where I helped the covenant all I could (while staying out of their sight) and together we vanquished all the flood and at the end there was ONE elite left, just standing there and I could see him from behind the transparent energy shield but he couldn't see back and for the first time I had the chance to carefully look at it up close without it being smacked on the floor, I don't know, it just looked so MAGESTIC alive and I was SO helpful for all the help that I said to myself: I can't deny this guy a chance of a decent death so I took him dead on melee, instead of sticking a grenade or another rat-like move. Needless to say that by when the dust settled I had like 1 bar of health, but it felt right. (Geez, I really got into the game last night)
The grunts are so -blam!- funny (and YES!:I swear at one point they shout F**K YOU!)..
So, all this to say only ONE thing: The covenants are really cool and funny, and I really hope one day their "elders" die or drop the idea that "humans are devils" and they become our allies and TOGETHER we fight someone else ... it would be SO excelent to have the little grunts on your side saying "way to go man!"...
