Really that is weird. If the wargames is training then why is it that the UNSC is training spartans how to be flood. I don’t think that makes any sense. If anything the should have made firefight but put it as the flood and make it how it was like in ODST when you couldn’t alter it you just had to deal with it.
It’s not training the Spartans how to be a Flood, it’s training the Spartans to fight the Flood.
Trains them how to fight the flood and what to do if another spartan is infected
> It’s not training the Spartans how to be a Flood, it’s training the Spartans to fight the Flood.
Yeah you see thats is what i thought at first but now that i have become a very lethal infected spartan and i am still being trained. If the flood when they infect you get your memories wouldn’t this work against the UNSC not for them.
You’re thinking about it too much - the War Games simulator idea works well in terms of the setting on board Inifinity etc. and why we have red vs blue spartan battles but there’s going to be some oddities like this, however, the alternative would be just not to include a Flood/Infection gametype - I think the game is better with one included even if it doesn’t quite fit the Wargames idea.

Like i said above flood in H4 should have been firefight and infection should have been well…infection.
I think you are over thinking this way to much
343i obviously like the flood and saw the infection gametype as an intresting way to include the flood in halo 4 someway
overall its training Spartans how to fight flood if ever encountered
I am hoping for the flood to return as a result of this in Halo 5, with the didact and requiem gone that also kills prometheans equally, so I am hoping for the flood to make a return as an interesting and amazing enemy
It’s just a video game OP. you’re thinking about it too much.
This is why they shouldn’t have incorporated multiplayer into the canon. Its great that everything is connected, but it makes us lose the gametypes we loved that didn’t make sense in the universe like infection or invasion.
“Elites will not be playable in Halo 4 because it wouldn’t make sense canonically. But go ahead and play as flood monsters.”
Wat.
I never understood their logic on that one. I mean, they weren’t fighting flood at the time, but they were fighting elites. Wouldn’t it make more sense to practice against enemies the were actually fighting instead of enemies they hadn’t seen in 4 years?
Seriously.

I thought that was werid too when i first saw it. IT was worst when they said their isn’t nay flood in halo then have an entire gametpye baed on fighting them.
And also if a Spartan is taken over by the Flood it would be a formidable enemy and might fight and act like a Spartan. What better way to portray this then to basically have Spartans in flood outfits?

But the Flood absorb all the knowledge of those they infect. This would render most training useless as the Flood can then build strategies around it.
I actually posted about this before…Why use flood in h4 and not elites? I was campaigning the return of Invasion because I and many others really enjoyed that playlist in halo reach. Being able to spawn on one other partner or spawn in the original spawn and fight to cap two bases and a core with lots of vehicles and combat in between. It was just fantastic. And I think dominion is a terrible replacement.

Invasion was without a doubt my favorite Halo gametype. I love objecitve games that you need to kill in, its great. I enjoy Domion but it doesn’t replace invasion for me. Its good but not mindblowing.
