I reckon if there was no flood in Halo 3 the gameplay would be better for it, when playing halo 2, i got up to the flood parts in legendary and then just quit.

The reason why i think that Halo 3 should have no flood is:
1. Flood Have no personality .
2. Bore to kill.
3. Not colourful.
4. Have no AI.

They're colorful. Magical explosions of green flood goo. But as far as the rest... I hope the 360 will improve upon them greatly.

I liked the flood, they were supposed to be scary. And they were. As for the AI, well, they were supposed to be crazy monsters, that was the idea anyway, So i think the weak AI was on purpose. maybe in Halo 3 the Flood evolve? or Chief meets some Flood on a new halo thathave evolved to the point of sentience, not some godlike central nervous system like Gravemind (at least, thats how I imagined him, sort of the brain for all the flood on Delta halo) but individual self-awareness, like humans. that would be a cool twist. Or perhaps a malevolent Flood Juggernaut like Gravemind, escaped from Delt Halo using derelict Covenant ships salvaged together to make some kind of spaceworthy ship, or even fleet?

No, the Flood is essential to the Halo storyline, they'll definitely be back. I personally look forward to seeing the flood again.

My reaction :

1. Thats true,but does it matter ?
2. Bore to kill ???? they where fun to kill,shoot of limbs etc etc.
3. It makes them more spooky
4. no ia....? how can they attack you then ?

It will be fun reading this Forum when H3 comes.

The Flood are going to be in H3. Why shouldn't it be in it? It fun to kill, not bore. the Flodd has been in the two halo games AND with the new graphic in H3 maybe we can really splatter them to nothing!

You can't take the flood out after two games

It would be like taking the ring out of LOTR in the third one...It just doesnt make any sense. In Halo 2 they became your biggest enemy. It would be dumb to pretend like they didnt exsist.

Of course the Flood will be in Halo3, dont be ridiculous. They're key to the plot of the Halo universe, they are the reason (as far as we know at the moment) why the halos were created!

As for Legendary on Halo2, the Flood werent that much of a problem. The jackal snipers and unrealistically strong elites were more of a problem.

the flood weren't bad.. the levels in which they were contained were.. thats why halo2 campaign sucks.. in halo:CE the levels were actually good.. so anything there was fun to play.. halo2 gets boring even on the ebst of it's levels...

I personally liked the flood in halo's one and two, they are a nice change instead of fighting the covenant over and over again, the also help keep the game interesting

uhhh. the entire point of all three games and this entire subculture is to cure the universe of the flood. how can the grand finale not include the flood.

people should think at least a little bit before wasting forum space.

Yes and no Jackal snipers because they were hard to kill too! While your at it take out any Covie turrets because they were a pain too. Oo, oo, take out grenades because those were cheap on Legendary too!! *sigh*

Join my group:

Halo 3 Multiplayer Group

The main aim of this group is to express our ideas on how to improve Halo multiplayer in the next game.

1) NO LOCKING ANY THREADS
2) No more searching through pages and pages to see if your topic has already been discussed
3) Stickies are updated as more ideas flow in, so you dont have to read a whole thread, just read the top post!

True, I think the whole Halo franchize would have done better without the flood and used a 3rd alien army instead. Flood are boring to kill and annoying.

Will they be in Halo 3? Yes. They can't just be taken out of ther game. Hopefully they woun't contaminate multiplayer.

I always thought the flood were really sweet!!!
and i love how you can be playing on heroic (best difficulty) and you get surrounded and you know you have a small chance of survival but you fight on because you know it will be fun then if you make it and you see a pile of those little flood fly past and you turn around to see the army you just killed to have arrisen again... (sorry i cant spell)
