The Flood pissed me off, so i killed them. All of them. Every last stinking, undead one. Then i had a second or two where my conscience poked its reclusive head into the affair and i asked myself what i had done, but then i realized that i liked it, so, i guess... my bad. oh well.

What I hate most about the Flood in harder difficultys is they always block the way. I was playing 343 and they just kept blocking the door and whacking me, the little rats.

Mine was well (cuz I think I skipped the cinematic) huh, kinda freaky.
Then I started shooting them- they all popped.
I think to myself too easy but whatever.
Then I promptly get my feces knocked into the upper mantle by one of the Eliteforms.
I was definetly caught off guard- and pissed off that these guys were the best enemies.
Then I discovered the magical ways of grenade and shotgun... the rest is history.

when i first saw the flood on halo 1 i was like WTF are these things but then i sort of enjoyed blowing the guts out of them.I thought of it as a gift from god to enjoy the pleasure of killing them, but in halo 2 when i saw them again i was like die Mothers die. I will kick your a$$ to hell, however on heroic and legendary mode i sort had a grudge against them but they still killed me.

Well, my first reaction to the flood was HOLY GIBBlY-GIBBLETS...what are these things!
That was over the parasite forms of the flood...and then the fighters came, with thier freaky tentacles and claws and big pointy teeth. I nearly wet myself. Then I noticed that once you had a shotgun they where not so tough.

This is my first forum!

To tell you the truth I didn't know what to do! The first three options on the poll were all what I had in mind. I mean nobody ever said anything about fighting something that has a deranged body, uses tentacles for a primary attack, and just appears behind you without a sound!!!!


P.S. How do you make a poll on a forum?

WHAT IN GODS NAME ARE THESE THINGS?!?!" then i started mowing them down with a shotgun....but now EVERY time i see a flood i still jump up a little..................oh and i thought,
"MY GOD...THEY LOOK LIKE SOME1 PUT A BUNCH OF TURDS 2GETHER!!"

it was something like "wow.......those marines are stupid" followed by small burst of machine gun fire. the warrior forms kinda tripped me out a little but i thought they were a lot easier than the covenant

thought it was somthing relativly like the SUFFERING wrong there were these bubble things that kept exploding but when the bigger guys came i practicly -blam!- my self. now in but it was only a one time deal after a few other plays on the flood infested levels did i get bored of them.

but now its awsome somthing to yell HOLY -blam!- LOOK AT THAT over a spider crawling "bubble thing" that has evolved from the first halo. now the flood look awsome and i hope in halo 2.5 or halo 3 that the flood just kick everyone around!

The first time I played through I was on normal, so no free shotgun for me. After seeing the demo I was right freaked out, but when I realized the riffle put them in their place I relaxed.

Then came the battle forms, this brought terror for about 10 seconds as I emptied my riffle into them, Then I switched to the pistol and discovered that 3 or 4 shots to the chest will down a battle form. Then it was the Flood running from me as I laughed and taunted tham as they got back up for more.

I was playing co-op with my friend, who had since beaten the game. i didn't have the game yet, and it was literally my first time ever playing Halo. anyway, i walk into the flood room, and those little jiffy pop things come in. i had the normal the normal reaction (HOLY -blam!-! WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!!), but that soon wore off when i realized they go down easily. then, the warriors came. again, normal reaction, wearing off after i find the shotgun.
