The only reason Halo 2 flood are easier is because of your weapon choices.. If you can't seem to find a sword or a shotgun, battle rifles, carbines, and magnums can kill them in 1-3 shots on Legendary if you have decent aim.
In Halo CE the pistol was the only weapon you could really get headshots with on anything, and as far as I can remember you couldn't get them on Flood.
Yes, you can in Halo 2.. Once you go and look at a dead flood, you can find it's head. OR, if it has no weapon, shoot it's strong arm off and look for the headshot spot (when there's a dot in the middle of the retical).
The human-like flood's heads are hanging off to the side, and the Elite-like flood habe their heads folded backwars, but they have a big hole in their neck that counts as a headshot.. One, maybe two shots with a battle rifle, or one to five with a carbine can kill any flood.
As far as offline play it's easy.. Legendary or not, there's an easy way to kill just about any unit.. The only thing I have trouble with is Regret.
Elites, you can use a plasma pistol and a battle rifle, carbine. (charge with pistol then shoot in the head.. Often referred to as a noob tactic but w/e).
Grunts, jackals and drones just take one headshot, drones usually harder to hit.
Brutes, take 2-4 headshots (when they're wearing a helmet).
Hunters can take 1-2 shots in the side with a sniper rifle, beam rifle, or shotgun.. And if you can't manage to find one of those all you have to do is run circles around them and shoot them in the back.
I think that covers anything.. Sorry about the long, off-topic ramble. (:
