I’ve noticed that in almost every Halo game there is the Main Enemy (The Covenant) and a Secondary Enemy (The Flood/Prometheans). As the Flood didn’t make an appearance in Halo 4, I have come to the conclusion that the Prometheans were almost like a way to replace them (as not many fans seemed to like them flood). So, I want you’re opinions!
Which do you think is better, the Horrible and rather Gruesome Flood… Or… The Futuristic Forerunner Guardian’s known as the Prometheans?
YOU DECIDE!!!
It’s hard to choose between 2 very annoying enemies. At least the Flood could transform I guess.
I didn’t necessarily hate the Flood, I just found some of the missions centered around them very tedious after awhile. In Halo CE, when I first encountered them I felt suspense and some thrill. But they were made to be somewhat scary and really weren’t and that’s what turned me away from them. The Prometheans on the other hand were a cool enemy to fight even if the AI was a little dumb, but really unless the Didact is still alive there is really no reason for them to come back as a main enemy.
Flood.
Prometheans are not funny to fight against. They are just damage sponge´s , atleast Flood was an interesting enemy to fight since they can come back to life.

So can Prometheans, I still prefer the flood.
I want to see both fight in Halo 5. Just think about it… the Prometheans original purpose was to combat the flood.
Flood, plus the Prometheans kept losing to the Flood in the canon so the flood again pretty much. While the Prometheans are fun to fight they don’t provide as much of a challenge as the Flood have in previous Halo games.
Flood are much better enemies imo.
I was 11 when i played CE at launch, and when i encountered the flood i was terrified lol, they were intelligent and relentless!
Prometheans were cool , but were hardly a challenge or relentless and generally sat at range letting me own them.
Would like both in halo 5 though, and more covvie.
Flood wins due to the ability to take over most biological lifeforms.
Prometheans are just humans turned into AI, a simple magic trick.
Flood wins solely because of two halo 2 levels; the one as the arbiter going down the elevator, and the one with the massive gondola to the index.
Some people are nostalgic about Halo CE’s open grassy halo environments. I on the other hand will always think back to the dark creepier side of halo 2, with the flood screams and ambushes and the feeling of an abandoned battlefield.
I loved fightring the Flood, it was frantic but also quite strange and some of the scenes made you think. The Prometheans are just big damagage sponges that irritate me.
