Make a better infection game mode

Now there could be a PvE mode where you try to survive Flood enemies and also PvP mode like it always is with some improvements.Maybe make so that Flood players can be different versions of Flood and have different abilities.

Would be interesting but I am honestly not expecting the Flood in the game, this is all about the Banished. I reckon they will come with DLC in the future.

Considering the past history of zeta halo with the flood id be surprised if its not in the game. I mean it doesn’t have to be only banished

Infection has always been at its best when it’s been the simple Spartan models as the infected. No silly green energy swords and no flood infected Spartan models. Keep it how it was with 3 and Reach and allow us to tweak the custom settings like always. That’s when infection will be at its best with infinite.

That would be interesting.

Why not have both? Basic energy sword Spartans for custom games and Flood style Infection for online Matchmaking.

Yes I think they’ll definitely pull a Halo wars 2 on us which I’m all for, especially with a flood/infected battlepass…the possibilities…

If everything has a toggle it’d be a nightmare for developers. They’d have to make two games basically just to please everyone for aesthetics

I agree, I don’t think the flood will be in the game at launch. However, it is a great idea for a DLC. Regarding the two game modes spartan vs spartan and spartan vs flood, it might be difficult to implement since it could divide the player base, and will require a lot of man-hours to produce. Either way, I am excited to see what comes out. The energy-sword lunge animation we saw in the E3 trailer looks so cool.

Look man COD is doing it with zombies,it’s surely not that difficult to make in Halo.

It would be a interesting mode, maybe mix H5’s contingency layout of going from one location to the next so it’s kinda objective based would be fun to play

There will definitely be a flood season with halo infinite

I 100% agree that there should be a PvE flood game mode. I think it would belong best as a firefight mode very similar to ODST or Halo Reach only on a more confined map without many open spaces.

True but they wanna appeal to new players, cool and freaky Flood models would be appealing and differentiate the mode from regular modes. They want to make Multiplayer immersive so it would be weird to see regular Spartan models as “Zombies”, having them as the Flood and saying it’s a training protocol for potential Flood contact on Zeta Halo would make perfect sense

I hooe you’re wrong… I find the Banished incredibly boring from a narrative standpoint. Covenant 3.0

So what you’re telling me is that the Spartans get themselves infected by the flood so it’s more immersive for their training protocols? All in all, that stuff doesn’t matter. There is truly no need to create extraneous work for a single mode when it was perfect/better before anything was changed. I’m sure the newbies won’t care as well. The reason people are even coming back in the first place is because Halo is returning to it’s simplistic roots (In art and gameplay), no need to contaminate things inside certain modes.

Yeah but also Halo 4 and 5 didn’t have Flood in them but they had Infection game mode.From when 343 took over they made Multiplayer canon in Halo universe by making it being a simulation,training for Spartan IV’s.

True, I hadn’t thought of that.
