My theory that they are on the forerunner ship that the MC is on is best so far.

Kinda egotistical, but it makes sense.

They could even arrive when the fleet leaves Delta, to go to Earth.

Man I hope the new book comes out soon to fill in gaps between 2 and 3 since 3 starts with earth taken over, and that wasn't clearly the case at the end of 2.

maybe it was the high charity...still able to generate the ship..enought power to get to earth...for Halo 3


i think the only way high charity moves is through slipspace. And i would assume that takes a LOT of energy to move.

My guess is the convenent will be back. Need something to make me crap myself in Halo 3. Maybe this time they'll even bring their own weapons instead of stealing all of ours.

Of course. In fact I think there are some inportant details yet to be discovered about the flood.

Wonder what it would be like to play as a flood. Like how we play from the Arbiters point of view.

IF the flood get to Earth, then its gonna be a really insane storyline.

This to me is a no brainer. THE FLOOD ARE THE REASON WHY THE FORERUNNERS BUILT THE HALO'S AND THE ARK.

I recon that new flood should come like hunter flood and jackel flood and mad little (so cute) Grunt flood with there little wea...O a little of key there. Also about the forerunners, Guilty spark is so annoying they should have a forerunner that in the end activates halo but all the moniters where wrong! its a flood destroying thing! and then the covenant attack halo and get
in the way of the destruction part and die (except the grunts with become my pet) :D


I read somewhere (too lazy to google right now) that the Hunter infected Flood were created at one point but became over-powering and the idea never made it in-game. I have also read (I'm pretty sure this was from HBO) that when Grunts are overtaken by flood, they are too weak to be used as Combat Forms, so theya are actually used as Carrier Forms (notice the short nuby legs of the Carrier Forms). Jackals, eh. That would be kinda funny to see :).

I think the flood should stay. Thats the center of the story. You can't have Halo without the Flood, its just not the same.

I'd like to see them return, they are afterall the cause for all the Halos. They should behave like a combination of in Halo 1 and 2. Large numbers, fast as hell runners, revival capability, and no shields or vehicle usage.

I sort of agree. They should be really fast (faster than what we've seen so far). Revival capabilities (like it was in Halo 2 where infection forms would go into fallen bodies and revive them). Make them tough, unbearably (yet weak to the Plasma Pistol like in HaloCE). I liked the shield and vehicle capabilities because it shows they're smart and that they are adapting. In Halo3 they should be in control of High Chairity and flying that thing. (oka the high Chairity thing was a joke but you get the idea, they are getting smarter and it should show).

Coarse they will return.... Makes me kinda sad though... I hate running down some hall in Halo 1 or 2 and hearing those squiels from the flood. Freaks me out.

i cant wait for HALO 3 it going to the -blam!-

  • 05.15.2006 8:28 AM PDT

I hope they animate them better this time around. They were very zombie like in the original, and when one of the Flood Elites ran at you, arms flailing, it was quite frightining, but in halo 2 they didnt really do that, the humans just jogged, and the Elites sometimes did an impersonation of an airplane.

I hope they bring along Juggernauts this time around, their cut from Halo 2 will be forgotten if they make one triumphant appearance in 3.

they should get some more flood, play as the flood or the forerunners (centenals) and use those and kill the flood this time...why not?
