343 has the Flood models from CE anniversary, which is basically Reach visuals on CE, so just take the models from there, touch them up a bit, maybe polish the ai to work more like ODST’s and boom Reach Flood Firefight, maybe even make it so Spartan 3’s can be infected upon death.
ODST never had Flood in it’s timeline but now it was Floodfight, why not Reach too?
Halo CE Anniversary Flood were just lazily reused Halo 3 models, just like the Spartans and Marines were lazily reused Reach models.
Spartans? The Master Chief’s armor was a new render. It wasn’t from Reach.
My point was that there ARE Flood models that work in the Reach engine, I’m suggesting 343 take those and polish them up to make a Reach Floodifght.
Whoops meant Elites lol.
Would be cool not gonna lie, but if they do use the models from reach they will be limited to only use Elite Combat forms, Human Combat forms. The Flood carriers and infections forms may not work as there is no infected brute model to use to infect
It was a lot easier considering ODST was basically Halo 3 DLC and it used the same engine. Reach doesn’t use the same engine as the other games. And CEA has a considerably different graphic style.
All the games use different iterations of the same engine, 3 and ODST are just basically the same iteration, and like I said, the flood models in Anniversary are just ripped from 3, which they could easily do for the brutes as well if they really were to bring the flood to Reach, it’d all just look really janky.
They’d be better off actually making new flood models based on Reach’s art to use with Halo 3’s animations, but that would take a lot of work, seeing as the ODST combat forms are nothing more than a new texture.
