The Flood: Truly terrifying enemy

Would you guys like to see the deadly Flood again in Halo 5? I believe they were a very interesting foe, able to come back from the dead, create more of themselves, take over other dead bodies, and even able to use any weapons!

Yes! I would love to see the Flood return. If or when 343 decides to bring them back, I hope they make them even more fierce and horrifying than before. Imagine the Flood being as scary as the necromorphs were in Dead Space, that would be awesome imo.

after reading the greg bear books and learning the connections between the flood and precursors, im so excited to see what becomes of it. if they decide to bring the precursor/forerunner back story to the forefront IMO this is just the thing halo needs to help keep the series fresh.

Precursors. Flood. They have to!

Hell mother flooding yes!!!

I’d like the Flood to retain the art style of Halo 3, but have combat changed with them. One of the most underwhelming aspect of Halo 3’s campaign was actually fighting the flood IMO. I did really like the flood’s involvement in the game and I like the creepiness it adds, I just think they should have an upgrade in AI behavior and fighting tactics to make flood levels more fun.

Too scary! I just soiled my armor.

Respectfully, I disagree. IMO they should keep the Halo 4 look, but move the claws/tentacles to the other hand so that in campaign and MP they can hold weapons again. Maybe also add the sensory nodes coming outta their chest. That would look awesome!

I just had a thought: The introduction of the Flood will be part of Halo 5’s cliffhanger ending.

You heard it here first, folks.

If he is right, I’ll name my first child “Willie”, and my second “Everstop”.
