Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

Those were the "Juggernauts", and if you saw it with AI, that was it in Halo 2's beta stage. The model is still on the level, but the AI is removed..

I have to say I want more levels like where you first met the flood in Halo 1. That feeling of being trapped and alone was such good atmosphere. *drool* I found that in Halo 2, the flood always seemed too weak and you never really found yourself trapped or facing impossible odds. Remember how scary it was in Halo 1, when you were trapped in the first room, with no way out, facing thousands of enemys. Thats what I want to see.

i agree, mostly
i like the atmosphere of Halo CE
all misty, dark and a great setting for the Flood
and with all the sounds and graphics from Halo 2

that is why i just run through High Charity
it is the level in Halo 2 that has the Halo CE type atmosphere for the Flood
and with High Charity, it was impossible to kill all the Flood
which is what it should be like


yeah, high charity is evil, gotta be the hardest level in the game, but great journeys ending movie gave tension

woo scarier flood



yeah, High Charity is the absolute last level i will ever play Legendary
but today i feel like playing it on Easy just to find out if i can kill all the Flood


U can't.

If u stand still for a while. Flood carriers (2) will come from behind. Or infection forms spawn.

Imagine a level in Halo 3 where Master Chief walks into a room with a huge pit in the middle. He inches along the edge to peek at what is making the disgusting noises and finds...an ocean of Flood infection forms, swimming in a pool of blood/gore and feeding on hundreds of bodies that the combat forms had brought to them. Seeing the immense threat (think somewhere between 2,000-5,000 infection forms), Master Chief slowly tries to back away unnoticed to proceed to his objective, but he's too late, as a carrier form appears in front of him and alerts the sea of infection forms. Angrily disposing of the carrier form, our hero quickly makes distance between him and the pit. After he finally realizes that he is trapped in the room, he returns his attention to the frightening swarm assembling all around him...

BEGIN LEVEL...
SEVERAL MINUTES LATER, AFTER THE LAST INFECTION FORM IS DESTROYED AND AT LEAST HALF OF ALL YOUR AMMO IS DEPLETED...

Nerves shot and heart pounding, Master Chief proceeds to a nearby exit. Just after a few steps, Master Chief hears the sickening sounds of growls and and the sloshing of decaying body parts behind him. Then he remembers: the pool of bodies! While he was wasting his time on the ocean of infection forms, the rest had stayed in the pit to finish what they had started: recruiting more troops. John gasps with fear inside his helmet as he quicklly turns around...and the room disappears as the lights suddenly go off and everything is swallowed in darkness. Master Chief, blind, alone, and probably surrounded without even needing to see in order to know, whispers one word: "-blam!-..."

BEGIN MISSION: PART 2...

(goosebumps) EEK!

I would love to see something actually scary about the flood, i would love it if they would bleed, drool and you'd see them eating or 'hosting' someone.. like a facehugger type of thing.

I want to turn a corner and see a dog-like flood try to bite my head off!

There going to be in africa, imagine a Lion-Flood

:D

Kirby might be dumb, but it would be cool to have the flood mutate because of plasma radiation in the slipspace jump to Earth.

Halo isn't DOOM. If you like the creepy stuff, play DOOM or that new game coming out F.E.A.R.

You're right though the Flood aren't scary; to me they're annoying. Instead of making them scarier though I would just like to fight them less, alot less, and have more tactical combat against intelligent enemies; the Covenant being one of them.

I like it.... the High Charity level was freaking awesome. I think we also need cooler weapons to deal with the flood, lke the flamethrower, but a hell of alot more stronger. Perhaps a plasma-thrower?

Okay.. the Flood are NOT tactical or intelligent.. they are primitive hungry beings.. thats the point. They are a parasite, an infection. They should be scary, vile and disgusting. They should eat your brains if they could.

I like you're idea. If we had cooler weapons that we might use specifically for the Flood then I would actually like to fight them, instead of getting annoyed with them. Good thought dude.

I wasn't implying that the Flood should be intelligent or tactical. I was saying I prefer fighting intelligent enemies over the Flood.

The Flood should be intelligent, in the Graphic novel, after they "convert" one of the Elites, the Legate says he thinks they absorb the knowledge of those captured and so they started setting up patrols, How do you think the Flood operated weapons and vehicles, even SHIPS!

I agree with what you said for it is what a parasitic alien race, that the Covenant fear, should be like.

The Flood weren't a flood in Halo3, that's the main problem. You fought a few enemies, not a few dozen. Also, the arm-flailing thing was gone, that made them seem more aggressive and more like a swarm of the things.

Hey Bro, if you want feedback for your idea, why don't you start a new thread about it. Just copy and paste your text if you don't feel like typing it again.

  • 07.23.2006 7:01 PM PDT

Halo's a hell of a drug.

I like that idea. Almost some type of sympathy factor when you killed them.

"I can't control it"
"Help me"

I hope they have animals in Halo 3 and the flood take over their body just like in HGN.

The only thing I hate about fighting the flood is that Bungie only lets you fight them in dark, low lit areas. I would like to fight the flood in the daylight on Earth.

Ah, well you see there could be tactical fighting behind it, you could have to fight knowing that these monsters are zombie like, dont you think that some strategy was involved while playing.. say.. Doom? Resident Evil 5?

And anyway, most people like 'runnin' and gunning'' in the Halo series.

The flood need to be less annoying and more freaky/scary...kinda like the Doom 3 monsters.
