Something I learned about The Maw

Games Halo: The Master Chief Collection
1

I learned that if you stay in one spot, trying to kill the Flood, they will keep spawning until you progress.

Yeah most of the corridor areas and the engine room staircases are infinitely spawning flood spots.

When I figured that out on the mission Keys from the flood infected that comes out the water, I ended up dieing less on The Maw on Heroic then on Normal.
I also feel stupid since I played Halo CE back in 2002, and it took me 15 years to figure that out.

Ya in some spots you have to run and gun or they will eventually overwhelm you. I liked it because it kept you on your toes but omg could it be very annoying

You mean this?

It also happens in certain spots on other missions as well. A few weeks ago I was playing Truth and Reconciliation on legendary and when I reached the gravity lift area, enemies would just keep spawning down the lift. There had to have been like 20 squads that came down before I finally jumped onto the gravity lift hoping that it would prevent anymore from spawning. Didn’t stop there as the elite zealots that ambush you almost immediately after you enter the ship kept spawning as well. I had to have killed around 7 zealots in that room and they only seemed to stop spawning once they had killed all of my marine friendlies.
Not sure if it’s a bug or if it just has something to do with the difficulty you’re playing on.

Also, its the CE misión with the worst respawns. Probably because of the little spores following you, “checkpoint” never come until you’re almost at the half of the mission.
