If any faction temporarily forges an alliance with UNSC forces, I hope that they aren’t severely nerfed to balance.
Flood that were allied with us on The Covenant barely demonstrated Flood capability. The Pure Forms rarely used their transformations and they chose the worst times to do it. The human combat forms came unarmed, UNARMED, to a party where everyone has guns. It’d been real badass to have rocket launcher Flood causing havoc here or to see an army of Tank Forms but nooooo, Bungie’s always been about difficulty so all they gave us was worthless Infection Forms (not that it matters since they’re infinitely spawning and will eventually overwhelm Covies a la Noble Team). It would have been epic to see Hunters on one of those bridges and to see a lot more freaking bodyguards. Instead, just 12 Brutes. That weren’t anything special (no Brute plasma rifle, no unique equipment, no new rank). Reaching Truth was so easy!
Who can remember those massive 2 way battles on Two Betrayals, Keyes, The Maw, High Charity? That was when the Flood wasn’t cannon fodder, when they weren’t downplayed to keep Chief in the spotlight. That was when they were a flood of carnage.
OT: Accessing the gravity of the situation will be overwhelming! :o
> UGHH jackal snipers and crawler snipers on legendary solo!!! What are they doing!!! I cant afford that many controllers 343i!!! lol This game is going to have so many twists its going to be awesome!! CANT WAIT
Bring it on 343! as long as there are plenty of options (not necessarily armor abilities) so I don’t have to suffer what I like to call ‘the Ranged phenomenon’ which is when I’m confined to a spot for half a hour due to an absurd number of SALRTC (super accurate long ranged terrain crawlers) and unable to flank or do anything other than retaliate and try to get long ranged stickies.
Thankfully, I recall 343 mentioning that Crawlers won’t be like Drones. And probably not like Ranged Forms.
