Buns Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 Welcome to the 40th 343i Weekly Community Poll! The previous week I asked whether all of you would like to see the return of old PvE modes or some new ones. The response was great let us view the winner below: A new PvE mode! Let us see what mastermind JL had to say A new PvE that combines elements of both Firefight and Spops into something new, innovative and enjoyable. Being able to forge an environment and script events and enemies so it's basically a campaign? Have the 343i-made PvE gametypes be story-based? This week with all the awesome Comic Con news. The question must be asked! For Halo: Nightfall. Do you want the flood to return or for this to be a brand new threat entirely? I advise watching the trailer before voting! Make sure to leave your thoughts along with your vote down below! Deadline: 8/03/2014 @ 9pm EST Thank you so much for participating in this weeks poll. See you all next week! Have a question, complaint, or suggestion pertaining to this or next weeks poll? Message Bnus 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DriverRetro Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 Flood. That was a big mistake. That thing should be left out forever. There are other things out there in space like new races and the ancestors, prior to the forerunners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Recon Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 I would like to see the Flood make a come back because they were Awesome and Fantastic to kill also I would like to see the Gravemind to since that was the ultimate form of the Flood if I am not mistaken. Also if they make a comeback I hope that they make them harder to kill so they won't be easy to kill just like the other Halo games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Intel Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 What I think will happen is that it'll be something completely different to the flood. It's stated to be some sort of an element. I would like to see the flood return, they'll return anyway. They can't all be eradicated. I'm not so sure about seeing them return in Halo: Nightfall though. I'd like to and expect to see something new in Halo: Nightfall, or something that isn't necessarily new, but not the flood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ardent Prayer Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 It can't be the Flood for a couple of reasons. 1. This is on Installation 04 I believe. It was the only Halo ring to be broken into segments, when the ring faced it's destruction, nothing could have survived that. Human, Covenant, or Flood. 2. They stated it as an element that targets humans specifically. If it was Flood, then it would've targeted any living thing around it to resume spreading.

BeckoningZebra1 Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 Great question Stinky! I'd like to see the Flood return in this new series. Not only do the Flood provide a scary, apocalyptic type feel when they appear on the screen, but they grow in power with every new being they possess. This makes for a ton of Flood variations and awesome combinations. So my vote goes to the Flood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buns Posted July 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 1. This is on Installation 04 I believe.

They stated it as an element that targets humans specifically. If it was Flood, then it would've targeted any living thing around it to resume spreading. 1. They said the ring performed a slipspace jump and ended up in a very very bad place.(Frank O Connor said this in the Comic Con panel) 2. Someone hasn't read the Forerunner trilogy. Read it then you would know the flood can choose who they want to infect. They're smarter then just "kill everything zombies" you just got de-BUNked. Don't question the forum mastermind of Halo lore, or you will face the same fate as the Forerunners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guts Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 Since it was stated that activating the Halo ring would only slow the Flood down, it is possible for the return of the Flood. To see them in Nightfall would be great but I think something new should arise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VinWarrior Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 I do want the Flood to return... BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT I want to see a much more varied and smart flood, especially in their castes. Think about it, we've never seen a Flood Grunt, a Flood Jackal, a Flood Hunter, or a Flood Engineer, however it would make a ton of sense as DNA has nothing to do with who the parasite latches to! Hell, let's see some Ancient Forerunner Flood escape the facility and have them rise again, or Promethean Flood! As well, I would like to see the Flood EVOLVE to form their own host bodies, like what happens with the Lambent in Gears of War. Imagine a PURE flood form! Flood weapons! Flood vehicles (We've already seen the Flood pods in Halo 3, they can obviously control vehicles). As well, I'd like to see another Gravemind, possibly one more calculated and cold, sort of like the Flood Didact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeStone42 Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 I think it should be a new infection type that like the Prometheans would digitize you or whatever and they could teleport, have swords, and shoot the infected's gun and launch there grenades.

DriverRetro Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 The flood should not return. The old crutch should leave Halo allowing other fiends to arise. The whole thing should focus on new Fore runner technology, the ancestors and new races. There are older and far better technology than the fore runners. The story should not stay there. The world of Halo should grow on other directions than the Fore Runners, Covenant and the Flood. The flood had a chance and it was well addressed in three games. It is time to move on and try other ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowFiend216 Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Ehh.... I ave a love-hate relationship with the Flood, as much as I would like to see a return, I don't think it will happen, especially in Halo: Nightfall. 5...........

Drizzy_Dan Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 The Flood has got to come back. As much as we hate them, they're what scared the absolute crap out of us in Halo: CE. They are a gigantic component of the Halo universe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♠ Spades N AZ ♠ Posted July 30, 2014 Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 I have never really LOVED the flood plus there is so much more that Halo could bring to light that has not been revealed. My vote is definitly for something new but part of the old storyline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Basford Posted July 31, 2014 Report Share Posted July 31, 2014 The flood has to return it's one of the main reasons why halo is halo the only thing is that they couldn't infect several species and there are flood specimens on the over halos and their known state is unknown so there could be a gravemind some where, anyway my vote goes to the flood all they need is to be able to infect every specie thats it. Aswell as how they are able to control human/ covie vehicles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrhuntington Posted July 31, 2014 Report Share Posted July 31, 2014 If there is no Flood with Ridley Scott, then that's an opportunity I'm sad we won't get to see. I do want them in Nightfall as they can be as horrifying in a movie just like they were in the first game. If they are set up right of course. This whole talk of elements has slightly spurred my curiosity, into whether it is actually flood or something different. If they do put the flood in it, then I think it will be a treat to watch someone get infected alive in the movie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
