The game was great fun! I can’t talk about the new map or vehicle, but i’m sure you’ve found out from leaks now anyway.
The flood game type was really cool. The movement when your the flood is really fluid and fast with really high but not floaty feeling jumps. You can use PV, thruster pack or invis as a flood in the game type I played.
The flood cannot pick up weapons, have a large claw that acts the same as a sword, and make cool gurgling noises.
For all those worried about the sounds of the guns, don’t be. I had my reservations, but after hearing the game through decent head phones the guns sound fantastic! Really punchy and dat guass cannon… WOW
The game feels really fast-paced compared to reach and the guns feel so good.
I like that it appears that you can customize them to have Armor Abilities. Should make great Custom Games. Do you know if 343i gave them the ability to pick up weapons?
How many maps new maps did you see that us, the community, didn’t see?
Don’t tell what are the new vehicules, but do you you think we are gonna be happy?

can the flood be played in other game types besides infection/flood ?
Well, thats what I meant. I knew it wouldn’t be in multiplayer, but the Mantis is technically a new vehicle, because it is new to the Halo Series. I just wasn’t sure if OP was talking about the Mantis or not.

The Mantis is confirmed and on the Homepage so I’m sure he would be allowed to talk about that anyways.
> > Woah woah woah…New vehicle? By new, you mean new new? Or just the Mantis?

> The Mantis is in Campaign and isn’t included as part of the 2 new vehicles… That would be dumb.
How does it being exclusive to Campaign not make it a new vehicle? Just because it’s not in MM doesn’t mean it isn’t new. It’s definitely new to Halo.

Lol It’s on the homepage literally you see it when you type in the website. Her you go anyways…
There were 7 maps playable. 5 you have already seen, one I can’t talk about but you know already and another one called complex, which unfortunately i did not get to play. There is a vid here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVbmFo7sB5g
Was kinda like lots of different buildings with a dirt road around and underneath the connecting walkways. Lots of great Ghost action!
> I don’t recall the Flood having the ability to cloak or use thruster packs, although PV would make sense.
There was a part in Halo CE where the flood would storm out of a door in camo.
As for thruster pack, the flood are agile and can be exetremely fast like they were in Halo CE-2, so that actually makes sense for them to use it. Not to mention, whatever the flood infect that have equipment, the flood can ‘learn’ through their memories how to use said equipment.
Flood have AA choice? Thats different, I don’t think it’ll be bad.
It’ll help balance out the problems where Humans always have a massive advantage. Campers may be dealt with more easily. The Flood may seem superior in some ways.
