"In the beginning, the universe was created. This made a lot of people very angry and was widely regarded as a bad move." -Douglas Adams

My first reaction to the combat forms was to chuck a grenade, and you can imagine how that went.

Here! Eat my plasma grenade!
Wait... why is he running toward me?
BANG!

I bought my Xbox last year and i came to the first lvl with the flood on the evening. my parent's was sleeping and it was vey dark outside. And when MC open the door and the marine fell out i jump up. then when those little guy came i just loved running around and kill them. After a while o thought i heard something behind me and when i turnd around i saw a combar form comming right at me. first i just ran and i barley had time to draw out my assualt riffle and fired but i kill it. After i while i found my shotgun and after a series of killing sprees i just said. praise the lord for this weapon! Something like that was my first encounter with the flood.

At the first sight of the flood I stood up and screamed at the TV "Why!!!" and then I sat back down and played the game none the less. The same reaction to when I saw guilty spark 343 again.

The whole thing just reminded me of Resident evil....but when I first saw tons of the infection forms coming at me I was like: "where's my machinegun?! WHERE'S MY MACHINEGUN?!!!!"

hmm... Best moment ingame, the construction of that level, the dripping, the motion sensor showing massive amounts of friendlies and enemies, but no visual, the scared grunts, the empty hallways, were you normally would have to work your way through hosing your bullets through hordes of enemies, Blood everywhere but no bodies, the crazy marine, cocking his eyes from left to right, shooting at the shadows, mourning over his dead friends, again, the shattered covenant forces, who pose no threat, the door, the dead marine, that bit shocked me already, the movie, my heart started to skip a beat or two, then followed with the music, was the Flood. This was the moment that I knew to shut Halo down, and take a pill to calm down, I was So sucked in by the Game, Everything Scared the living hell out of me.

Also, when I got out of that room, and met the Combat forms, I was like WAARGGHH, NO, you won't turn me into one of you!!! So I sought higher ground, and was putting bullets in my foes, when it happened, A Combat Form leaped at me, I Yelled, My mom came up and asked me what was wrong, A Combat form, all it took was a full clip of ammo, to put it down, with all the spray I caused, You could've covered every single wall with it, I was shocked, my senses went numb, Survival was the key, run, Take cover, hose with bullets, I swear to god, I really fear that level

Here is my exact quote: "What the hell are these?"
Then, when the infected forms came: "Are those Elites? WTF"
After emptying a few AR clip on them and watching them get up: "Oh you have got to be kidding me!"

My first reaction was, "that's a lot of WTFs!" Then after the combat forms came in I got a little freaked. I think it was right after the 5th or 6th time they came up and slapped the snot out of me, they just started to piss me off.

I was playing halo for the first time and my friend said that there was a different kind of creature in the middle of the game that was never advertised so i stayed up all night playing, it was about 2 in the morning when i actually meet the flood. I was playing in the middle of the night with the lights off and as we all know Master Chief walks up to a door and hears pounding. I quickly turned the lights on and it scared the crap out'a me

Me and my friend were playin 343 GS when the flood showed up. When we saw the johnson video we were kinda freaked out. It was midnight and a thunderstorm was happening so it made things worse. When i saw the "infectos" i started shooting them with my pistol and thinking these arent so tough along with my friend. When we saw the combat forms we started to scream because we turned around and saw one 2 feet away.

On Halo 1: "Ho-l-y Crap... what the *random swear word* are these things?" I run around in a circle for about five minues killin the small ones slowly ( I played through Legendary first) and when I saw a big guy I almost crapped myself... then he killed me in one quick swipe, soiled pants and all.

On Halo 2: "Ho-l-y Crap... not again." After playing through Halo 1 so much, I had developed a sheer hatred for the Flood, and was glad when they blew up on Halo.... Frankly, I had forgot about em when I played through H2... until that covenent elite says, "That smell... It is somehow familiar." I instantly thought, ""noooooo! not again!!!!!!!!" I was then instantly thrown into that endless swarm of fleshy beasts called the Flood... I just hope, if there is going to be a Halo 3, that, "Please... PLEASE, oh mighty Bungie, let the Flood stay dead!"

i have to agree...i mean the little bastards came out of no where and plus the elites and humans that were infected with the flood weren't exactly the easiest of enemies. They just wouldn't die, no matter what you hit them with. Even the fat blob like ones were so annoying, especially when they appeaered out of nowhere when your shields were down, and you would so pissed cause like the nearest checkpoint was like 10 mins away from where you died.

The very first time I met the flood, Jenkin's helmet vid really freaked me out. When the little blobs busted through the doors, I didn't really shoot them, I kinda let them explode on me and such. Finding that it took several of them exploding just to take my shields down and several more to kill me, I started wondering what all the fuss was about. As I was blowing them away with my assault rifle. I saw another door bust down and then I was like "WHAT THE HELL ARE THOSE?!" I tried shooting them but they were running right at me and they weren't dying. Finally, one of them went down and just as I was about to give a sigh of relief, he got back up again. Indeed, the Flood were very scary when I first saw them.
