The flood is (are) boring. The Library is a mind numbingly boring part of HALO. Why is the flood even in HALO? They could have thought up something else and still had a good story line. I guess the flood is in HALO 2 unfortunately.

I loved The Flood. I don't get why everyone hates them. The Flood are what saved Halo from becoming a cliche storyline. Give me a shotgun and AR in the Library and I'll be happy for hours. :D

Erm, why would the flood be in Halo 2? It's set on Earth. Have you not completed the first Halo game and seen what happens? I won't ruin it with specifics but safe to say flood are dead.

DUDE HAVE YOU EVER SEEN THE ENDING TO HALO? IN THE END IT SHOWS THE GUILTY SPARK FLYING AWAY AFTER THE CREDITS. AND YA KNOW WHAT HE PROBABLY FOLLOWED MASTER CHEIF BACK TO EARTH HMMM I WONDER AND HE HAD EVERYTHING ABOUT EARTH BECAUSE OF BEING IN THE PILLAR OF AUTUMN. SO HE MOST LIKELY WANTS REVENGE OR SUMTHING AND HE WILL FIND AWAY TO MAKE THE FLOOD COME BACK AND ANYWAYS I ALWAYS SORTA LIKED THE FLOOD SO f#$% THAT!

Hmmm. Monitor. Bring him on. I would so love to put a few rockets through his circuits.
And some sniper shots.
And some shotgun rounds.
And some needles.
And some pistol ammo.
And a plasma sword, if I can get it.
And, just for good meassure, as many plasma and frag grenades as I can find.
Plus whatever else comes to hand.
...hmmm...wish they would put a nuke in Halo 2...

(he can leave the flood at home, thanks)
Of course, you have to remember how much the Monitor hates the flood. You know, "destroy all intelligent life in the universe to rid said universe of the flood" hatred? He's not gonna bring them back even if he is out for revenge.

Yeah, Monitor hates everything including Flood.

And the were killed on Halo, how could he 'bring them back', bungie doesn't write cr*p storylines like that.

The flood IMP would be much more fun if the game took a more Doom3 feel to it when then appeared. their not scary. but they could be.........

erm, the Halo in the game was for containing flood. The rest are only said to be for killing the flood's food. If the flood already exsisted on other installations, what would be the point in any 1 Halo stopping their spread? They'd already Be spread throughout the galaxy, on hundreds of other installations. Not very effective way of stopping their spread huh.

And umm, do you have Any idea what implications it would have if Bungie decided that the Earth should be taken over by parasitic life forms? There'd be trouble, to say the least. The issue of the covenant attacking Earth is more than enough for a storyline. If the flood did return, it'd be a really lame thing to do because it'd make Halo2 into a Halo1 re-make. Bungie aren't that lame.

Since you brought up the issue of 'theories', I've read the Halo sequel book, First Strike. I know what happened after Halo 1's finish, in great detail. There's this thing called a Shaw Fujikawa Drive, which allows ships to use slipspace to cover large distances. It takes a very long time to get to earth even with this method. So exactly how is the monitor meant to have got all the way to the next installation, which considering they have a "maximum effective radius of something-thousand light years" they're not going to be close together, without this drive? And even if he did, how would he get the flood to earth?

Here's the clincher though:

The Monitor Was Built To Contain The Flood That's Why He Tries To Make You Activate Halo In The First Place. So why would he go and unleash a load more flood? He's programmed to contain them not spread them.

Skippy wins.

Great, then! I hope I'm wrong about the flood being in Halo2. Not too long ago, I read in a forum, either this one or another, that the flood is in Halo2, which is why I said that.

Here's hoping for no more flood!

There was no flood in the PC original game so it was either dumped there to finish the touches on the Xbox version.

There were dinosaurs in the original PC game! or some kind of large animals anyway. They look like stegosauruses... however you spell that. I'd know if I was still 7 years old. I've also seen footage of a rare occasion when they considered having a small chocobo style dinosaur that the cheif could ride! How nuts would that be? They also had boats.

Hmm, it'd be cool if Halo 3 or 4 saw the return of a Halo with dinosaurs on it :P. That'd sort of make sense coz the first Halo was for studying a rare species (flood) so maybe another Halo might be for doing the same with... hang on I'm getting way off topic here. I must be high or something.

Yeah i agree the flood suck ass it would have been so much more fun if you had at least two more levels with the marines helpin out but hey at least sarge is gonna be in halo2.It must have been the hug with the elite that saved him.

Anyways in the swamp level when you go and look for keyes, while your escaping you should run into a fight (if you can call it that) between the flood and about 3 marines.It was pretty hard but i managed to save one of them from the evil flood only to lead the flood straight to him when i was going for a closer look.

It was'nt much but hey it was fun.

yeah, i actually saved the marine though when this happened. it was cool, but he's too weak against the flood. my worst mistake in that level was after i regrouped with the other marines, i walked into the middlt of a group of infection forms, so i could kill them without wasting ammo. the stupid marines followed me, and i had to shoot them all. drat.

btw, the flood realy does suck, but it was a good plot twist none the less. it suprised me, but i didn't stop playing halo because of it

I know that the Flood and the Halo ring will return in Halo 2.

Halo ring evidence: Just look at the screenshots of the Map "Ascension" you can see it in the background.

Flood Evidence: I have read it on other forums.

that means there are at least 343 AI robots like Guilty Spark, we have no evidence to suggest there is only one AI per Halo. The AI's aren't even necessarily robots like GS, they're just numbered entities, like Cortana maybe.

Realy man, the flood die in halo 1. And Halo 2 is on earth. So the only way that there will be flood in halo 2 is if 2 little flood boarded the mc's ship and when they arrived at earth they rapidly reproduced.

uh... the original halo was instalation 04. meaning that there may be several, but probably not 343. i think 343 refers to 343 previous attempts to make simalar independent AI's
