hm, my first reaction to the flood was "well...let's see if these things die and if it takes more than 5 seconds i haul my butt behind some corner." I think I played during the day time, but it was still as scary since it lasted into the night and all of flood mercylessly jumping at me with their super soaker guns against me shotgun, Trusty. That took care of 'em.

It was a scary enough set up when he finds the guys helmet and sutff. When i saw the actual humanoid ones (sorry i can't be bothered to find out what they really are) i started screaming and crying which is how i ended up in this nice padded room.

When I saw the flood form of Captain Keyes, I was really grossed out. After that, I was scared of everything in the dark, scared of anything that suddenly moved, and even my teddy bears freaked me out. (dont make fun of me) But I'm now over it....

I played 343 Guilty Spark. It was 2:00am and I haven't had sleep. I saw a form that is larger than a marine, but runs faster than an elite. I saw grunt runnings out of the base and Assualt Rifle shots were being fired through the opening that the grunt ran through. When I was in the base, I saw blood dripping, that ain't scary. I saw grunt blood in the hallway. Then there was a freaked out marine. It almost scared me. What truly scared me is the Jenkin cutscene, where I saw Jacque Keyes and his men get torn apart by the what the hell is that bubble ones. Then everything was quiet. Then I saw like hundreds of bubble monsters like in the Jenkins cutscene."AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ," I screamed so loud that it made my parent wake up and force to bed. They thought I saw a ghost. I disobey them and continued playing.Then there come the Zombies and I blasted them into atoms. It was four o' clock AM by the time I owned the Zombies in my sleep!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Me and my nephew were watching the Jenkins video and thinking OMFG. Then we saw the little ones start coming. We got cocky, thinking "they suck"! Then the Cov. forms came and we freaked out. when my nephew shot one, he said, "hey, I killed one." As soon as he said that, the flood popped up and killed him. I laughed at him for like 5 minutes.

I wasn't playing at the time, and I hated Halo then, along with most other video games "thatissodumbandviolentug". Heh... Yeah. T_T But when I first played against the flood I was all "HOLY -blam!- THEY CAN JUMP" and practically cried the whole way through the Library.

Edit: To this day, I'm afraid their a human flood combat form hiding in my shower. Scares the hell out of me. When I saw the flood in Halo 2, I was playing at 1:00 AM and then that freaky song, Ancient Machine started playing. I got so scared I had to stop playing.

i wish i caught it on camera, but my brother totally flipped. As they jumped at him from the dark he jumped and yelped, but when he noticed that you could shoot out the chest cavity and arms and ribcage of the flood corpses, he almost pissed his pants as he screamed.

If the forerunners were as advanced as it was said why weren't there force fileds(shileds) on the flood cages

i was playing through halo on co-op with my brother and needless to say we were awaiting the flood with some anxiousness.
i had read the halo guide i got in a mag but it was just a cheap black and white - no pictures affair and when they were saying 'you can shoot their arms off but they still come for you' i was just confused.

so when we watched the jenkins video... silence... then we were both actually panicking slightly. it was pretty scary having to gun a path through that door.
