Flood Game Type

Does anyone else think that the flood gametype seriously needs a rework… the flood are honestly so overpowered, and the non infected just feel so weak, the rocket pack makes infecting people so easy and the lunge distance is seriously too far, this game type seriously needs a rework and 343 need to go back to infection and take a page out of other halo’s book i mean come on infection/flood is one of halos strong pillar on which it stands this is stupid. what do you think?

yep. this game is too tryhard so people are leaving it…
living dead matchmaking and custom games made halo reach the great game it was and still is with 50k people on at peak times still.
flood, well, i’ll be honest, its terrible.
no offense to anyone, but flood as a zombie takes no skill. Roll into the humans, press B and you get the kill. As a human, your shotgun can’t kill the flood at a range they can lunge you from; and your weak pistola seems like a BB gun with its three shot kill.
Rememver getting your pistola overkill then doing a 180 to get the killtac?
It’s impossible on flood.
#600 in living dead on HTR < I loved that playlist. I dont know why it was removed but i do know that halo will never be the same again.

I 100% agree with you, i completly forgot about the pistol i mean cmon 343 the pistol im sorry but what is the point in even having it? the maps are small enough for by the time you’ve you put 2 bullets in to them they used the rocket pack and have already lunged you.

Infected too weak in Reach? You cry for change.

Now they’re too strong in Halo 4? You cry for change.

It makes SO much more sense for the infected players to be more powerful. If you can’t understand that, you don’t understand Flood.

Yea but when it gets to the point when they can pretty much boost half ways across the map and lunge at the same time to kill you then you know they are way overpowered. I for one like that they are stronger but the thruster pack is what is making me hate flood mode.

Hey I don’t mind it. I thought infected in reach were way too under-powered. This gives the infected a chance to do damage instead of being spawn killed by said pistol. Just wish it was more customization in the custom games.

I find the flood gametype extremely fun. It’s very fast-paced, but that doesn’t mean it’s impossible to get killtaculars etc. as a spartan. It’s challenging, but still quite fun.

Agreed, Reach’s Alpha Zombies was the best

It has the potential to be a really fun mode but at the moment it’s kinda broken. The lunge/thruster combo with even a little bit of lag makes zombies unstoppable. Why would I use anything but the thruster?

I have yet to play a single round where the humans lasted to even the 30 second mark much less stayed alive the whole time. A few tweaks and I would play it all the time.
