does anyone even like fighting them?
I don't even like halo.
Halo 3 terminals were the only good part of Halo's story and you can't convince me otherwise.
You're not supposed to fight them you just run thru the level. It's easier in coop because one guy runs and the other distracts.
I like popping the retarded fat ones
>>750155335>t.Frankie
Halo 1 and 2 had the best flood. Can take decent punishment and deal a lot of damage. Love them rockets.Halo 3 pure forms were pretty annoying to fight.
>>750156101combat forms using shotguns in H2 were bullshit.
Hallway halo always sucked
>>750155904sounds like the entirety of all borderlands games
>>750155074anyone who does is a masochist who has played a shitton of halo
>>750155074Flood were only fun in Halo 1. The super high jumps, carrier forms flying across the map, infections forms popping like popcorn, dramatic arm flailing animations, and rocket launcher niggas were all great.They just feel lame and gay afterwards, especially in Halo 3.
>>750155074They were ok in Halo 1, boring in Halo 2, and they tried really hard to make them interesting in 3 but the sniper/tank variants both sucked ass
>>750159318this was funny in 2008
>>750159381They were too weak in halo 2, funny enough. Spore getting into a body to resurrect it was neat but the fact that energy swords were abundant and body destruction also worked with the bruteshot meant it was a nonissue completely.
>>750159636Sacred Icon is awful
>>750159318Blows my mind this is still ongoing. I thought it ended after they were falling apart.
>>750155074Remember when halo was baby’s first fps? I mean, you probably dont
>>750159393
Haha GAYlo
>>750155074Only in The Library. The flood are awful in tight spaces like Keyes and The Maw.
>>750161116the maw is pretty easy. Keyes fucking sucks though
>>750155074I thought the flood having high melee damage resistance was a neat gimmick. No idea why they made them so pathetic in 3.
>>750161315What you should be asking is why plasma weapons suck against them in CE when in lore plasma is way better than human weapons because it burns biomass away
>>750158721>especially in Halo 3I remember everyone at school whining about how gnarly the floodgate and cortana missions were in 3, having no idea what they were talking about. You could pretty much just walk straight through both on legendary. Showed a buddy just that and he was pissed that he tried to full clear both kek
>>750155074I've been replaying all the Halo to 100% the MCC (and doing the LASO runs) and I've come to the realization that Halo is a bad game franchise.
>>750155074Much more fun in 2 when they got headshot hitboxes
>>750155074Game is awful after that level devs ran out if ideas
>people itt defending the flood as intresting enemiesevery level they're in, they automatically ruin it, full stop. Think of the worst levels in every Halo game and I can guarantee that the worst of each one is a flood centric level.
No, they're mechanically unfun. You can't even knock their bodies around in Halo 3 like you can with Covenant and UNSC ragdolls, which was part of the fun of fighting enemies in that game.The only good thing about the Flood is their unsettling nature, because they do add to the environmental aspect of missions they're present in.
>>750162561Halo 3 doesn't have any good levels
>>750161815>why plasma weapons suck against them in CEWhat do you mean by that?Plasma pistol is the better generalist weapon than the M6D pistol, especially on legendary difficulty.
>>750162732If you're accurate with it you can easily shoot off their arms with plasma weapons and make them harmless but that requires dropping your magnum or shotgun, which you simple do not wanna do
>>750162709true, but i'd argue the only good H3 level is the Ark. Everything before is boring filler and everything after is just meh.Halo 2 is the best halo game and that's final
>>750155074they give you one of the best shotguns in gaming to fight them, it's fine. just use either the battle or plasma rifle for the swarmers
>>750162949>they give you one of the best shotguns in gamingyeah, too bad they give you the shotgun more than halfway through the game and from that point onwards your weapon sandbox is basically only shogtun and magnum + the occasional power weapon.
>>750161205the day I learned the Keyes flood bump is the day i just skipped Keyes every time I can
>>750162949>H3 shotgun>good
>>750162303Yeah they just suck in 3. They're way slower and just pause awkwardly sometimes. Doesn't help that most of them evaporate from a single melee and they all get fucked up by one hit from the brute shot.
>>750155074Hell yeah, I had a kino time with them>play halo>hes a cool guy>level has fog>little jumpy bois swarm me>out of ammo>low health>only a few feet behind me>run like hell>turn around and they are right behind me>ohhh shid >no where to go>keep running>see cliff edge >run to cliff and cut right at the last second>turn to see all 20 of them ling at where I was>they all dieI will never forget this moment
>>750155173That's pretty gay, anon.
