I can own you at any Halo game.

I use to hate Infection, but now that's pretty much all I play on Reach.

"Living to smile, and not to succeed; smiling to inspire happiness, not to give the illusion you are happy; creativity and music to inspire smiling, which in turn inspires happiness; being nice to be happy, not for being perceived a good person."

Wrong Forum?

And I can't say I agree, because I loathe it.

Reach killed Infection for me. Played it at the end of Halo 2, loved it. Had even more fun on 3.

Reach stamped out everything I loved in Infection.

If you never played Infection on 2 or 3, boy you missed out on some great times.

I have played it on 3 but not 2 and I'm guessing your not a big Reach fan Sandtrap.

I'm not sure because I never owned Halo 2 but I've played it.

Nope. But anyway, boy did you miss out on something great in halo 2. It's a shame. But at least, if you're happy with lolReach's Infection, that's good.

I was under the impression that infection in Halo 2's time wasn't an official gametype but instead a tradition invented in custom games, where the person goes on the menu and switches their team once they are killed by a zombie.

I loved custom infection in Halo 3, those were some good times...the infection double exp playlist was also good


That's right. There never was an official gametype, just the set of rules created by players. Ah, the good old days of a nice online community.

Also, I admit, I never was one for the Double XP maps or gametypes, as they could never match the ones you found in customs and I was nearing my end time with Halo 3, but everytime I play Infection in Reach's MM, I think back to those maps and gametypes. What I would give for a map of even half of that quality in Reach's infection.

I do admit that Infection in halo 3 was a little better, but for the most part I'm hooked with Reach's Infection.

  • 11.25.2011 3:16 AM PDT

right on

  • 11.25.2011 3:19 AM PDT

the thing is is that some of my friends take it too seriousely and freak out when they're a zombie

i know im a noob for saying this but what does jk mean?

  • 11.25.2011 3:27 AM PDT

Thus I refute thee

I wouldn't say it's addictive but every now and then it's good fun but after like 2 games I get bored with it

  • 11.25.2011 3:27 AM PDT

Jk means just kidding and it is addictive to me, I could play just Infection hours on end without taking a break in between.

  • 11.25.2011 3:33 AM PDT

we got a true player right here

  • 11.25.2011 3:36 AM PDT

I guess it's just you....

Infection in H4 better have Flood skins for the zombies, no AA's, and some dedicated (Forge) maps, because it's no fun as it is now.

  • 11.25.2011 3:37 AM PDT

Playing as the Flood does sound fun now that you mention it and omg I guess your right it may just be me that finds it addictive.
