Subject: Ambushes

We all know about the ambushes in Halo 1. In the libary and every where else. So which one freaked you out or caught you off guard the most.

Mine: I walked into one of the pulse looking rooms (not one with it in it) and there was no one there... I walked up smashed the glass and ran out of the door to line up the flood and bring down since they swarmed from everywhere.

I think it was at the end of the Library, after fighting small, steady streams of flood, going through the walls, I came to the door that needed to be unlocked. I wasn't expecting anything more than a few combat forms and some infections, but to my suprise, about three hundred infections, and like, sixty carrier and combat forms.

Also that bridge was one. I expected some flood but not about 100 infects and a dozen combat and a few carrier... they can fit anywhere

Sighness

Indubidubly. Banana.

*shudders* The last room of the Library...the door opens up and Flood keep flowing out like some bad case of Diarrehia (Spl?) I was all 'WTF!! GAH!' and I ran head first into them chucking nades, smashing their heads in with my shotgun and littering Flood all over the place with my rockets. I had an adrenaline rush >_>; My mom also told me to shut the hell up cause I was yelling >_>;

That's good

In pulse gen two I ran saw the flood and go under my breath "Mother -blam!-S HOLY -blam!- AW CRAP"

then run jump run on them and get out and run off the edge of the platform and have to do it again

There were also 2 places in 'Keyes' that got to me. One was on the way to Keyes, after you fall outside the ship and re-enter I'm running to my nav point when I notice a hole in the roof. I run under it and kill the flood and whatnot and an Elite escapes and is hiding around the corner. My shields are down so I crouch under the hole in the roof -_-; I decide I need some mroe ammo and turn around to see I get myself surrounded by THREE friggin' Carriers.....Pop goes the MC -_-;

The second part was when I found Keyes. I think 'Ah man, Flood are coming, aren't they? And what do I see when I open the door to get outta there? An Elite and 4 grunts all wail back and chuck what seems like a sea of Plasma grenades into my face....Pop goes the MC =/

The last part of the Library. While i waited for GS to open the friggin door, about 350 flood came at me, then when te door opened i couldnt see cuz i had crappy tv, and got whacked from every possible direction. Surprisingly, i went on the far left side, and they all stopped following me.

mine was when you get your first overlook of the library from a ledge.

lets just say that me and Mr. Shottie became very good friends that day.
