      Halo 3 Flood is a joke they die so easily on legendary making all the missions against them a cakewalk.
      Halo 2 Flood can take a hit and use hit and run tactics on the player if they're human and rush if they're elites, not to mention how fast they and melee and run.
      Halo CE all act the same, just run at the player except that they're actually good at aiming and don't just stand around like 3's flood.

    In case no one noticed, in the first human infection animation, the infection form purposefully makes the marine violently slam his head on the ground as another method for snapping his neck, when looking at it from the back angle you can actually see the head twisting backwards.
    Also the process of infection is more painful and terrifying than people think because those tumors and claws don’t come from nothing, they come from the infection form breaking down the body and repurposing it’s parts, the tumors come from the flood supercells rapidly decomposing the body and using the matter to form the tumors and filling them up with even more flood supercells so it spreads more disease when they pop (the green mist) and the claw are the bones of the host being snapped and moved and are reconnected together using the cartilage as it bursts out of the arm, we don’t see it in game but flood combat forms are able to rapidly reconfigure, contort, and mutate their body to whatever is required (ex. They can almost instantaneously become a carrier form and create more infection forms, or shoot long ranged whips/tentacles out from their body) it happens in the books, all of that isn’t even the worst part, the most terrifying part about becoming infected is sometimes the host doesn’t die and in that scenario you will feel all the pain from having been torn apart and changed and all the pain from being attacked while the infection form mentally interrogates you for any useful information, an example of this is (SPOILER ALERT FOR “HALO COMBAT EVOLVED” AND THE “HALO: THE FLOOD” BOOK)
    Captain Keyes who was interrogated by the proto-gravemind sifting through his memories and “deleting” any memories it saw as not useful, the only thing keeping it from getting the information it wanted was captain Keyes who kept on feeding it mundane or “boring” memories like his name, rank, and serial number, different kinds of smells, tastes, and colors, or simply images that meant nothing like a ceiling fan (I’m not kidding).
    And then their was Jenkins who was infected by a old and weak infection form, he was able to occasionally regain control from it and every time he did he tried killing himself.

      If what I read above is correct, the flood need their victim alive to most effectively use it.
      To that end the flood probably momentarily resuscitated the marine in order to hijack the nervous system. Or its a just a reflex caused by the hijacking itself.
      Or you could be right and he was just trying to play dead.

With Captain Keys for example, the flood needed his memories, so he was kept alive while a protogravemind probed his brain.

    Terrifying little tidbit: A lot of the infected, who turned while alive, are still "conscious". They are just controlled by the infection forms, and in extension, the flood. They feel everything, and can still think.
    It's a sort of mercy to take them out. Captain Keyes is probably the greatest example of retaining the most sense of "self" after infection. Everyone else is in that semi-conscious state of pain and confusion, or the even unluckier few that are completely conscious, such as the unnamed (maybe named?) marine who spoke to other UNSC to kill him.

    • @sakkra93

      Not only that, the Flood go out of their way to keep the victim conscious. The Flood could just as easily let the victim die and use the body like a normal Zombie, but the Flood chemically isolate the brain from the rest of the dying body to keep the brain alive. They do this so they can learn from the victim, however it also means that the victim knows everything about what is going on - from the endless agony, to merely watching as the parasites controls his body and forces him to attack his friends.

    Bungie managed to create both the best sci-fi storyline and zombie species in existence... on the foundation of a first-person-shooter.

    Never noticed how much the transformations shows off the precursor transformation ability. They could turn into anything.

    I dont know if this is confirmed or not but I like how the pure form kinda feels like flood iterations of the races the flood couldnt turn
    The tanks are the most obvious with their similarity to hunters
    The ranged forms remind me a lot of grunts in how they cower when being shot at with high ordinance weaponry, and the turret always gives me halo 2 shade turret vibes. That could just be me, but those are almost exclusively grunt weapons in 2 and they like to pop up in weird places to catch you off guard just like the ranged form
    The stalkers feel like a mash up of drones and jackals. The silhouette is very reminiscent of the hunched over drone while the jumping and getting into inconspicuous locations to transform into a bigger threat is a lot like jackals in the lore. In gameplay jackal snipers are found on rooftops because they are great at climbing afterall

      nah I mean like the ability to jump up into inconspicuous places is a lot like jackals. the pure forms just do it to transform into turret mode

    This was the first game I ever got on the Xbox 360 when I was younger, the first time I saw this happen it actually scarred me to the point where I needed to either save as many soldiers as I could or kill them so they wouldn't turn into that.

    When playing Halo 3 I remember I would try and run ahead to kill all the flood before the marines got there so they would all survive. Most marines I ever had at once was 12-14 I believe.

    Admittedly, the first Elite animate sort of looks like there are meant other Flood forms holding the Elite steady as he gets infected.
