Yes I play on easy because it is the most fun.
I dont really find the higher difficulties that fun. If you ask me its just about taking cover all the time. It would be better if they made it so on Legendary there are more numbers, smarter AI and different things happen. Not so you die instantly if you peek from behind cover
Yep, your a kid who LOVES changing his mind.
Regarding the Flood discussion, I felt that CE Flood were designed to scare you, while still dishing out the damage. They were a great challenge, and I loved how they did the Super Jumps (Which were nerfed in subsequent Halo games). Halo 2, while being easier to kill, came in vechiles, spicing up gameplay. As soon as I got H3 and played Floodgate, I knew it would be easy when I could meelee a Flood to death for the first time.
Oh yeah forgot to say. CE is pretty easy in Heroic
Dont forget Halo 3 added pure forms to make gameplay tougherI see you're one of those kids who don't know what a good difficulty is.
Pure Forms were damage sponges and they made gameplay difficult for the wrong reasons. There's nothing impressive about raising an arm to block shots or hiding in protective casing. And there's nothing more frustrating than seeing one absorb a grenade that I stuck it with. Grenades are nearly useless against them. Shots don't work either, which is why I always melee them to death or use firebombs.
So if you don't like how CE Flood require certain weapons (and they don't), then I don't see how you can like Pure Forms which do require certain weapons (Brute Shot, energy sword, melee to the face).

i eventually worked out their weakness whereas the other forms crumpled under the power of the Energy sword or fire. They were interesting to fight at the time, but given how weak the flood were in Halo 3 i still think the whole feeling of the flood being the "biggest threat" was gone..And let's not forget about how you can use the brute shot to get ranged forms down.
You can pretty much go through Cortana speedrunning and with a brute shot. Use any other weapon and it's hell. And the necessity of using deployable covers is really annoying. Often, the only way to get past these encounters is to use the shields.
That's why I appreciate CE Flood unlike Mark V, because they can be taken out with any weapon, even the AR and you don't need equipment to do well with them. The Library's overshield does come in handy but I don't always go for it.
