Why did they feel the need

to turn Living Dead into Flood?

If you guys remember Living Dead was pulling the same numbers as Slayer most of the time on Reach. It was insanely popular. Then 343 started making changes like removing Sword Base and The Cage and gave them awful replacements. Blocked all the good camping spots and removed friendly fire.

Now they turned it into Flood and its almost the least popular playlist in the game.

All I ask is why?

armour abilitys for me kills, thruster pack, the effect on your screen, is anoyying, the maps are a bad fit with the gametime, good example is Complex, i hate flood mode

Freindly fire became a pain in the buttocks in Living Dead and only n00bs camp in living dead. Man up and face my sword of justice!

The only differences from the popular old Living Dead gametypes are maps (obviously) and the movement speeds. I don’t see the problem myself? D:

Seriously? I actually really enjoy flood. Its a nice variation from infection. I will say that I do miss the old infection especially in custom games. Also I am not a fan of complex either.

Living dead it was kinda annoying being the zombie and in Flood mode I actually enjoy it.

I love Flood. Much better than Living Dead.

Yep i like Flood better than Living Dead also…

I got bored easily in the old infection games. Flood has given it new life

Because you now have to actually work for your kills instead of camping on an unreachable spot taking no effort. Seems that rubs you the wrong way, you know, actually having to play the game.

My wife’s favourite mode in Reach was Infection, so I played it to the point that I was bored out of my skull with it. I’m glad that they’ve mixed it up a bit.

Also, blocking the camping spots in Reach was a good thing, too many people would cheat and find almost unassailable positions. Especially in Boardwalk, where they could find positions that were very fiddly to get into, and almost impossible to get into as infected, if you have someone standing at a distance with a ranged weapon, whilst you’re simultaneously struggling to get to them, and not fall off side of the map. That’s not fun for anyone except the guy racking up kills, hence why they took action against it, and rightfully so.
