Flood Mode

[Mythonian]

This is what I thought the original Infection gametype would be before H3 even came out. I was disappointed back then, but this makes up for it:

i know man :(

[Coda]

..... Is... This.... Real? I thought there wasn't going to be flood... I don't care. This is so cool. Way better than normal infection. Well, at least from what I can tell. Everyone has been yelling, so, instead of acting calm, I'll join in on the fun OMG THIS LOOKS LIKE SO MUCH FUN!

[bazongaman502]

Looks fun, but i still kinda think this isn't true... i hope it is though!

looks legitimate to me

[Juggernaut9473]

indeed

[Coda]

I wonder if there would be a way to integrate the flood into FC games.... That could make the wars a bit more interesting

[UNLUCKY NUM13ER]

are they going to keep the old infection gametype?

[Al Capone111]

If legit that is awesome. After reading the new books, i wouldn't be surprised to see the Flood make a come back at some point in the new trilogy. Maybe not as big, but still there.

Bioweapons Attack: XcR

- Attack an enemy territory with a biological weapon that renders the areas inhabitants infected. Gives the attacking army a chance to gain a "victory" if they can overcome the infestation and prepare for the defenders return. If however the infected people eliminate the attackers, the defenders will be able to crush the lower numbers of infected with ease thus gaining a "victory" for them. (Winner gets a game ahead for that map of the night)

Just a wild idea...

[UNLUCKY NUM13ER]

I like Ghosts idea, maybe we could build off of it? Although for now it would be really hard to tell until we get our hands on the game. Also I'm sure it would be a hassel to set up and run on battle nights.

i like i like...i knew there was a reason why we kept you around here lol jk jk =P

[Coda]

That could work. But I think we should build off of that idea and come up with more possibilities. I think before we make a set decision on that though, we need our hands on the game. Who knows, Flood Mode could be the worst game mode ever. Of all time.

[Juggernaut9473]

doubt it even if you do use the RVB reference coda =P

[MedeDust]

Well going of the infection gametype I dont think you would be able to choose who is the flood.

I love it. We could also incorporate community nights to this game type, as both armies unite to quarantine a bio weapon outbreak.

That gave me an idea. Let's say the REDD attack a BLUE controlled territory with the flood bio weapon. That could make it so the entire map is unplayable and that map is only to be played on with flood mode. The bio weapon could be very expensive, and possibly need something more than vCash. The only way to play on that map again for the rest of the war, is to have that community night you mentioned. both armies have to combine their forces to take out the flood invasion before it spreads. Perhaps we could even have some neutral people start out as flood. So that they're not trying to lose to help their army. But we'd have to see all the settings and whatnot to see if that's even possible. Anyway, that's just an idea.

AC III Vs. H4


That is the real fight.

[Juggernaut9473]

[Silent Arbiter1]

Halo period would beat all of those games

Two new images. Flood do get loadouts. Seems to be like regular infection, you just look like Flood instead. Seems they do get a sword, it just looks like a fleshy Flood-infused energy sword. Kinda sad, hoping we got to use arms and flail at people. Still looks badass. Also, note the text "Soandso has joined the Flood." instead of become infected. :P

[Gargoyle]

Pffft. Dishonored.

Assassin's creed has an amazing story, but Halo as the amazing multiplayer. first world problems =/

Flood mode gameplay.

[bazongaman502]

i expected more out of that gameplay... basically is just normal Infection, just with visual changes

Not really impressed

That's what I thought, but even when I saw the first picture of Flood forms, I noticed they still had energy swords. So I figured it was just going to be aesthetical changes. Right now they said it was only a 12 person game mode too, 10 humans and 2 alpha flood. I hope that's just for matchmaking mode, and we can change it to 16.

[Gargoyle]

I wonder how flood humans look like.

Would it change getting headshots like in campaigns of halo?

[bazongaman502]

i would have loved if you had to claw at the people like the flood did in the other halo's. but if you shot someone in the arm, it would blow that claw off, then if they blow off the other then you have a "Timmy" with you in matchmaking lol

[Mythonian]

One thing I just realized about that Flood gameplay is that there aren't any killcams. That seems to prove that it's a customizable option (thankfully) and won't be in all gametypes.

I believe he's just skipping the killcam. Press X (I think) and you respawn instantly

Yeah, in some of the other game plays of Flood mode there are kill cams, here let me dig one up:

[Juggernaut9473]

well I'll be damn, it is in multiple game modes, but like myth said it is probably customizable to be turned off
