Will Flood Ruin Custom Games ?

Of course flood will be a fun new improvement to the current infection gametype, but will it over shadow every other custom game, literally flooding lobbies with tons of flood inspired maps and gametypes ?

But more importantly, will we have the options to create infection gametypes with more than flood sword arms as zombie primarys, or are we forced to throw away many of our infection classics ?

The whole point is that we don’t know.

I wish 343 would freakin’ communicate with the custom gamers out there…

I really hope we do have the option to customize the flood’s weapons. If we couldn’t, it would ruin a ton of creative gametypes.

Flood wont ruin Custom Games. Infection is like the Number 1 Favorite Custom Game out there. Flood is Infection, Infection is Flood.

we better be able to customize the flood and i am sure we can because they said in the video walkthrough that is has alot of customization. Also i would be extremely happy if infection ruled custom games because thats the only custom game i play. Infection is the best!

Maybe it’s like Infinity Slayer, where you have Flood Mode and Infection separately.

We’re going to have REALLY ugly prisoners…lol.

I certainly won’t be buying ice cream from that fellow either :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Infection already ruined custom games, nobody can play a normal game anymore instead of things like “teacher” and “cops and robbers”… If I ask for a normal game of Slayer, CTF, Assault, etc. I just get laughed at, because you can just play it in matchmaking… >_>

No, it won’t ruin custom games. I don’t see how. Competitive players will avoid it like the plague, casuals will play it and everyone else in between can be any other kind of gamemode really.

I’ve been in game lobbies before and while Infection was seen many times, more often than not people would be playing Slayer gametypes and obstacle courses too.

Fat kid, Duck Hunt, Predator etc. God, I freaking HATE infection variants

Exactly! The maps are most of the time terrible as well. And the worst part is, when I’m finally party leader and I finally get the choiche to do something awesome, everyone just leaves and invites each other… I got so many maps and gametypes I’d like to try out, but nobody ever wants to.

Your all really dumb if you think infection gametypes are stupid. If people hated them then why were they played like crazy in halo 3? If you wanna play slayer, CTF, Assault etc then go do matchmaking.

Name calling is quite mature, keep at it. It will make you a ton of friends.

We all have preferences but no where in that quote wall did anyone call Infection stupid. Why get so worked up?

It may sound like I hate Infection and yes it’s not my favourite gametype, but I’m not saying it’s terrible. It’s just all those gametypes that don’t make any sense and are very repetitive, yet everybody wants to play the same ones over and over again.

And the reason I want to play Invasion, Slayer, CTF, etc. in custom games is because there are some amazing maps out there and it’s always more fun to play with friends instead of randoms. I also don’t care about improving my stats in matchmaking, heck, I wouldn’t even care if my rank got reset… If you play with local friends you can also be more sure about a good connection.

I am pretty sure you will be able to make it just like you did before
