The flood evolved on 1 planet and spread like a disease. Obviously theyre nature of being destructive would confine them to a single world (because they are too damn destructive to invent anything). They did'nt destroy themselves by being to numerous (like what humans are doing) so what kept them in check and how were they set free?There must be a animal/ disease/ parasite that fed on the flood. What do u think?[Edited on 5/29/2006]
Well, I'm guessing it developed as a disease which took over all take-over-able life forms and when the Forerunner encountered them, the Flood adapted to Forerunner ships and whatnot and used them to get around.
No the flood were created by the forerunners and when they flood broke out as what the forerunners knew it would happen they activated the rings. the flood have no nautral predators.
Actually theres no proof of that.The closest thing to proof we have is from the "Art of Halo" book-thing, in which it said that the Flood were encountered by the Forerunner.Its not entirely trust-worthy, but it holds more ground than your mere opinion.
I think Jacks point was not that nothing eats them, but that their not natural. If thats not his point, it's mine.
