Because of the other freaky things in 343 like the scared covanent, crashed dropship, crashed pelican, and the huge mess in the building, I was really freaked when I first saw the flood. I kinda shaked first time I saw a parasite one's tentacles jump up onto me.

I REALLY got freaked when I saw my first combat form flood right up close with the red veins. :|

i personally had opted not to pick up the shotgun at the beginning of the level and when i say the cutscene all i thought was "this realy can be good..." and of course when i met the flood personally i wasted every bit of assalut rifle ammo i had. then the combat forms came... heh heh heh... what a fun day that was

I was just like, what the crap?! What are these things? Crickey look at em. If I could just prod one with a stick. Oh crickey! I never seen anything like this before! lol But seriously, I was just what the -blam- and kept going, only to reach the library, where they started using rockets... Man, I really hate the flood now.

I've come to love the flood. 343 Guilty Spark is my favorite level (I hated the library though). I liked the humans because they're so short and everytime you kill one you think to yourself, "I could've beaten that guy in an arm wrestle." In my opinion flood are awesome, they're the most fun enemy to kill besides hunters and they can take down sentinels even though I always run off the control platform in the beginning of two betrayals and don't get to kill 1 for about 2 minutes. Flood rule.

Hint: if you shoot one of the carrier brainy poppy things next to a bunch of enemies, it kills them. I didn't realize this until playing the Maw. and yeah, the rocket launching flood was a bit intense.

My reaction was "Why does everyone play this level at 1.00am?".

To me the Flood were kind of a disappointment, the game had all this nice tension building up, with Cortana sending you running from the Control Room, to the garbled radio transmissions and the foggy swamp, the gooey mess and the fubar Marine.
Then all it was was some spidery squid things that popped with a whiff of green gas.

first time i saw the critters, i crapped myself.
And i still do when ones behind you and you spin round face to face.
Btw why can't you kill some of them with the sniper rifle - that really pisses me off
