Don’t get hyped up about ‘Flood Firefight’ when it hasn’t even been announced as a feature.
I can just see it now, all of these random threads from people complaining about the lack of Flood on the new Firefight map.
Sure, it’s a possibility, but it’s not confirmed. Hell, for all we know ‘something never seen before in Firefight’ could mean that we can use flying vehicles (Falcon, Banshee) on the new Firefight map.
Just thought I’d put it out there. I’ve been seeing a lot of discussion about this, and it almost concerns me.
I won’t mind at all if it is or isn’t in Halo 4. One thing I would prefer with Firefight is that it has nothing to do with ranking. Firefight/Campaign matchmaking would be great, I just don’t want those divisions of gameplay to not coincide with ranking in any way.
I hope the experience system makes a return in Halo 4, and I would also be fine with the credit system along with that as well. I just don’t want Campaign or Firefight or anything else besides multiplayer matchmaking to have anything to do with any sort of ranking or experience gain.
As for Flood in Firefight, if Firefight does make a return, it better have Flood (as I’m sure Halo 4 will have Flood).
I don’t think that is how it would work. My theory is that since the Flood will be remastered in Anniversary, 343 will be able to code them into Reach since the models and animations already exist.
