In Halo 2 they introduced the flood again. But this time they walked around with shields. Now personally i thought they were hard enough when you killed one 5 more came in it place kinda thing. I used to be able to go guns ablazing with my shotgun having loads of fun but still near death. Now you cant do that cuz youll turn around. shoot one. they just shake it off and beat your face to a pulp. i think the shields really took too much away from the gameplay and easyness of the flood. afterall what makes them so deadly in the first place is their superhuman strength and limitless numbers. this is experienced very much in the LIBRARY from halo 1. i just think the shield slowed down pace meant with the flood.

If you want easy, go play Mario Kart.

Why are people afraid of a challenging gaming experience?

Does everyone just wanna beat the game, but not play it?

im not saying easy. i just say that they are really hard as it is just killing them one by one but they come faster than they go. the shielded ones just seem to overwhelm you. its like an army of elites.

It would make sense to have shielded flood because not ever shield generator will be broken when the bodies are converted.

Your just scared of them.

Flood should have a shield, but not all Elite forms..just..maybe half? Are there any with Camo anymore? Howbout Overshields..I think we should have them in Halo 3..

..Along with a new player skin, that would be a Flood Elite (with the same HUD, HP, Shield strength, jump height, etc etc)

It's not that hard man, I mean, I beat the entire game on legendary without that much effort. Besides, you're life isnt at an end if you can't kill a shielded flood form. If you can't kill it, then maybe you should take on an easier difficulty, say, Normal, no wait, Normal may be too hard for you. Try EASY.

It stands to logic that the shields remain, as the generators aren't broken.
