The first time I saw a flood I was walking down a hall randomly fireing my shotgun when one fell in front of me. This happened just as i fired so I killed it and I thought I had found an Easter Egg.......until the rest of them came......

At first glance, I thought they were just mutated Covenants (hence why the REAL Covenant forces flee) but when u run outta shotgun ammo, and get backed into a corner by them, things change...... and you gotta start skull bashing with the butt of the gun!

I offered them a stick of Juicy Fruit. One proceded to take the whole pack and steal my Warthog.


I never got it back.

OK, so my friend out me all supped up to play the Flood, u know freaking me out! I had already played H2, but I was still freaked out. First thing I said to him was, "Holy -blam!-, they're smarter than in Halo 2!" I played Halo in 2 days, and 343 at ~ 2:30 a.m. Holy -blam!-!

i was playing through 343 GS and enjoying it...then i got to the room where you watch the vid and it being a cut scene i went to get a snack and i got back pretty much as soon as it finished....so i'm eating my kibbles 'n bits and then those little things came out and started shooting and wondering what the -blam!- are these??? then a combat form came outta nowhere, stole my controller and proceded to violate me with it :(

I played the game in the evening. I walked through the Containment center and becuase of Cortana's "episode" and the fact that there was goo dropping from the ceiling, I kinda thought there was something up. Thoughout that level I was like, "-blam!-, where is everybody?" Then with the Jenkin's scene, and all the dead Covenant I knew they wern't Covanent. So I proceeded to kill them all. But I thought the explding ones were kinda cute. All the other ones made me -blam!- myself. And I hate that noise they make. (gloop wiss wiiss goop)

I was first introduced to the Flood at a friend's party and when I first saw them, I was like what the-? I was really bad and we were playin' on legendary. Yah...I got my @$$ kicked.

It was funny as heck seeing the marines get eaten by the flood, but the bad part is you had no backup after level 5

I think the flood is like mutants and the sound they make are like worm sounds...and the movie clip in Marine Jenkins was cool! But when Captain Keyes turned into a flood and now that was not cool...he looked ugly...and what was the thing that the master chief took out of Captain Keyes in Halo 1?

he takes out his neural (typo?) implants so cortana can blow up the PoA... the big flood thingy still freaks me out though... so after the cinematic i waste a clip of assault rifle on it...

I saw all these things running towards me and I thought "Holy crap, those things are weird." Then I though "HOLY CRAP THERES TOO MANY!!" Then I died.

One guy said "They were easy to kill but there was so many"... that last sentence...hence the word "flood", oh and me...i called my friend, who had beat the game already and said...WHAT THE F*** IS THIS! soon afterwards i was playing the game with my eyes closed..but now that i can reap..things are different between the flood and i instead of "get away from me!!!" its.."sit....roll over...play dead..."

I reign supreme so turn your umbrellas upside down...did you even catch the change in things?

When I first saw the Flood, it was all over. They all died in 60 seconds. I got serious...
