people keep saying that the only way to end it all is to activate halo. that the flood will spread through the galaxy and eat everything. well i would like to know, if the flood are on halo. how do they get to other planets. so far i have only seen them on halo. i must be missing something. so help me out here. like i said. if the flood are on halo(s) and its been tehre for like 100 of years then how come there not on earth yet?? i dont see why master chief has to activate halo

They could fly to Earth. It just hasn't happened yet.
Halo has to be activated by the Ark. Which is on Earth. Not to say MC himself will activate it.

The Flood can fly ships to other planets. They were also on High Charity.

now i could be wrong but I think the flood infect their host and gain access 2 their memories so that's why they can pilot aircraft so if they could pilot aircraft they could get off of the halo's and on to the rest of the galaxy. But I'm not 100% sure on this.

By hijacking other ships with hapless occupants to escape Halo, like they did at the end of Halo 2.

I am...whimsical today.

Like the Brain form that took Captain Keyes could fly (or at least was learning to) Truth and Reconciliation, and the same way In Amber Clad and the Pelican dropships were controlled.

while the flood were dormant on alpha halo there wasn't a problem. but as soon as sentient life was introduced the flood began to spread. when the flood infests a host it doesn't lose it's origional self, it is taken over by the flood. memories and capabilities remain to a slight degree. it wouldn't suprise me at all if we saw in amber clad or high charity show up on earth full of the little bastards.

but they flew with in short distances. i dont think that tehy would have time to get from that halo to this earth. before they starve.

they have survived on the halos for so long, i don't think a journey through slipspace will cause them to starve to death.

Did you see the size of the containment center! there is no way. that the flood could escape unless tamperred with by the covenant and/ or humans. thats why all we need to do is stop the covenant. we dont need to activate it.

there is really no way of knowing yet. i know that gulity spark mentioned in halo that some of them were maintained for study. from there we really have no way of knowing what happened.

but they have already been released. the covenant did not intentionally release the flood, unless truth knew and just didn't let it on. in halo cortana sais "the covenant found something, and now their afraid" right before she sent you out the containment area.

regardless, the damage has been done.

damage was done on that halo. not the other ones. and master chief stopped it twice. now he needs to stop it again.

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

The Flood (sin) are locked into the Halos, and studied by Sentinals and Monitors (what the we..Forerunners left behind to do..). They almost got off the Halo in the Truth and Reconcilliation.

No ships = No escape.

Read the books ;-)

exactly. ther is no way hte flood can spread unless tamperred with by the covenant or marines. and now the covenant are trying to activate halos by remote acess. so chief has to stop them.
