Subject: Halo CE Anniversary - Floodfight or none at all

I was thinking, if the flood were in Halo CE and there was to be a firefight mode in Halo CE Anniversary. Do you think it would be possible to have a different option in firefight to have flood as enemies instead of the covenant?

See you on the bounce, trooper.

My guess is no. They wouldn't have any flood models for the reach engine, I just don't see 343 putting that kind of effort into one firefight map.

Buuuut they did say their Firefight map will do something NEVER done before in firefight. and they will have models from hale:CEA. i see this as possible.

  • 06.10.2011 1:32 AM PDT

I posted this before, they would use the basic code for the Flood, such as movment and everything else that it involves, and then re-skin it like they did with the master chief.

When you think it's all over, you are dead. Yay.

I. SEE. YOU. RECLAIMER.

Are you forgetting that the Flood appeared in the first game? They'd have to make new models for them, anyway. What's so hard about incorporating them into Firefight?

On a side note, I would LOVE for this to happen. In fact, I'll be extremely disappointed if it doesn't happen.

Corn, Oil, and Wine... We need more wine...

Flood Firefight would be amazing, and it would actually rekindle my interest in Reach, which... At the moment, is gone.

Halo is one of the best series I've ever played. Thank you for such an amazing game, Bungie!

This would be awesome! Playing on The Library fighting off flood?
All of my money, take it.

Yeah, not models (my bad), but the AI for the flood. Since they didn't appear in Reach, 343 would have to add the AI to the reach engine for a firefight mode...and I just don't see them putting that much effort into one firefight map. Maybe they do, and it would be sweet, but I just don't have a lot of confidence in 343 at this point. This separate engines business for the multiplayer just sounds funny to me.

holy -blam!-, that'd be awesome, fighting off waves of flood in the library. that'd be whatsup

  • 06.13.2011 9:36 AM PDT

I highly highly highly doubt that Firefight will be in Anniversary.

  • 06.13.2011 9:45 AM PDT

i doubt it, but it would be awesome

Even if there was one, I wouldn't play it.

There would be no marines to spice things up, no occasional Elite commanders and spec ops dropped off by Spirit dropship to clean up the mess (their presence made it much more fun to fight the Flood), no dead bipeds on the ground (if it doesn't take place where the Flood are first encountered (swamp/containment facility on 343 Guilty Spark), then it would be unreasonable for there to be no dead guys), and Shotgun + grenades would make it way too easy.

Then again, the shotgun problem can easily be resolved by limiting the ammo/Flood that spawn with it.'

Edit: But if firefight is for the Reach engine, there's always potential.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Probably not, but that'd be really cool if there was.

  • 06.14.2011 9:27 AM PDT

For everyone saying that there is not fireficht in CEA, there will be. it comes with 6 multiplayer maps, as well as 1 firefight map
I have to admit, flood firefight would be one of the coolest things i have ever seen in any halo game yet.

  • 06.19.2011 2:56 PM PDT

I agree. They already have to make the flood for the campaign. Putting the flood in Firefight will be so awesome! I bet tons of people will love that, and I'll be very disappointed if it doesn't happen, also.

  • 07.12.2011 1:01 AM PDT

Relax. I'd rather not piss this thing off.

-Master Chief

If there was a floodfight we might need some bigger guns id say the mac cannon would do it.

  • 07.12.2011 2:27 AM PDT

I run Skirmish!!!

that would be awesome, i might just play firefight in reach again, well maybe..

  • 07.12.2011 4:26 AM PDT

Frankie DID say that the new FF map would be set in an "appropriate" campaign level...

*cough* library *cough*

Indeed.

I just have to think, though, that any kind of "Floodfight" would be too close to those little rooms in the Library where the Annoying Floating Blue Ball of Light left for a couple minutes. Not terribly hard, even on Legendary, but not altogether that enjoyable.

  • 07.12.2011 8:26 AM PDT

I predict a vehicle-based firefight map(By vehicle-based, I mean scorpion, falcon, flyable banshees, revenant etc.).

Amazingly, they haven't done that before.

Although I would also love to see flood/sentinels, it is unlikely.........of course, then again, there was some debate over what engine to use. They may have made some Reach flood before deciding on the original engine.

  • 07.12.2011 12:39 PM PDT

there is going to b firefight with flood in it its called the library lol

  • 07.12.2011 12:43 PM PDT

"Hey! I heard you fellas taste.... just like chicken!!"

While I reeeeeealy hope that ONCE and for all that we will be able to fight the flood with a team, online. I really dont expect it. Seriously, dont they have time to add that option, really? Pfffft!

"Even in death, your Sergeant guides us home."
