Ok so in halo 1 on 343 guilty sparks we see a video of the marines finding the flood but in that room where they die Keys was killed also. So how did he get to the Truth and Reconciliation and then get infected there?

Doc: "i'm a pacifist"
Caboose: "your a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

they never show keyes dying. all you see is them getting attacked by the flood. and since the flood don't actually kill you, they infest and take over your body, he was taken to truth and reconciliation where they would poor through his thoughts and learn the ways of the humans. that is of course until MC put his hand in his face, i'm sure that killed him.

no. on 343 guilty spark, you see a movie but you dont actually see keyes die. the flood probobly just took over his body and then dragged him to the truth and reconciliation where he gets infected by the huge flood. then when Master cheif puches into his skull, he dies.

True. The books explain most things of what happen eg. Keyes infection. Tha Halo books rule!

Flood can gather bodies. Near the start of the level Keyes you entered a room with streaks of blood on the floor and bodies gathered in corners. Not hard to believe Keyes was dragged in the same fashion to a grav lift and turned into a giant popcorn onboard.

thats rite but if he did die on 343 gs and if he did die the flood would drag him to the ship.
so pay atteton to the vids or skip theam.

I have returned from the Untamed Lands. MOAP is dead.

Would getting punched in the face by a super enhanced soldier really kill you?

He dies right before MC punches in his face. If you recall, Cortana says that his "lifesigns are fading, please hurry!" and then you walk up to the Keyes' blob and she says that he flatlined.

no that just means that keyes was 100% overtaken by the flood, so he was a complete flood when you realized you were too late. he didnt die, UNTIL master chief breaks his skull and squishes his brains to get his neural implants.

well if you read the books it does help..... A LOT. keyes gets infected by the flood while they are out looking for a weapons cache and thats when the flood get released and thats when he gets infected then the "other"(infection form) brought him to the truth and reconciliation where he became this huge flood form and when MC finds him he needed the neural implants in his brain thats when MC takes his hand and buries it in keyes head and penetrates his skull and takes the neural implants from the half liquified brain that is how keyes died and no he only died once the, flood didnt kill him he somewhat killed himself by losing basically all his energy keeping the defense plans and the location of Earth from the flood.that and the fact that MC sorta crushed his skull and everything

Keyes still isn't dead, even after MC crushes his head. Turn up the volume after killing all the flood in that room. You'll still hear Keyes making weird, distorted breathing sounds.

No that would be one of his friends :) And since the keys blob is made up of multiple hosts for all we know his thoughts could have been transfered to a main brain before you killed him... but since you have an objective that involves punching his head in I'd say that didn't happen. Either way, the t&r exploded and will never be flying again. Most things just don't run when they're over 100 million degrees =)

Personally I always thought that blob was big because of the amount of time the Flood that was inside of Keyes took routing through his thoughts and memoires. And yes Keyes is still alive once MC punches his skull in; he only silenced him a little.

read the flood(the book ofcourse) and you will learn everything you need to know about keyes. although it doesnt explain how he really got to the truth and reconsiliation it does explain how he got infected and how he felt till the moment he died.
