New topic: Favorite weapons.

There's not a whole lot of weapons in this game, but I still found myself picking favorites: The plasma pistol and the shotgun.

But are you still in it or nah?
I'm still in Keyes, yeah. I'd say I'm about halfway through with it.
Coolio.

My fav. weapon must have been the pistol and the shotgun tbh fam

The new album is pretty dope. I like Speed of Light a lot.
I was surprised actually since The Final Frontier and A Matter of Life and Death were pretty meh for the most part.

All right.

Did I mention I'm liking this level so far? It's getting a little harder now, but that's because I'm starting to rush a little bit. Which, as I've learned, is a bad strategy unless you're just really good, which I'm not.
You still playing Keyes?

Well.
*shrug*

i appreciate her fervor

i would prefer it if future questions asked by me weren't answered until i finish the game, though


K.

Regarding how the flood aren't scary, Bungie do a shit job of setting a tone in a game. The novels depict the war as how fighting an ultra advanced alien empire where one of te species capture and eat humans. Eat them like hot dogs.


As for the flood not being scary...

This motherfucker is like to disagree.



I'm sorry, but a giant tentacle monster isn't scary.

Ha

I get it.

Anyway, activating Halo would only wipe out one sector of the galaxy.
oh, okay

i overestimated its power, then

i redact my previous statements, partially--the level was still meh
You would need the other six Halos to reach overall galactic cleanness and plant domination. lol

As a fun fact, you can shoot the arms off the combat flood forms and they can't hurt you.  They'll just follow you around.
Didn't think of that.

there were so many



Overall, because my expectations were set so low, I'm pretty indifferent towards this level. I don't know what to think. It really wasn't that hard, for two reasons: 1. The shotgun kicks way too much ass, and 2. The sentinels are pretty OP, too. The level was almost like purgatory, in the sense that I kinda felt invincible, and there was no tension whatsoever.

The ending pissed me off for obvious reasons. We learn that the Flood can only be destroyed if we starve them to death, and the most efficient way of doing that is to destroy all sentient life with Halo.

...Which is clearly the best solution ever. And of course, they don't go for it, because "muh sentient life".

Bull fucking shit.

I think someone mentioned that I'd find 343 Guilty Spark (the character) annoying. I didn't, really. I kinda liked him. Not only was he kinda funny, he's the one taking the most LOGICAL route: Activate Halo. I'd rather be fucking dead than be ravaged by the Flood. Honestly.

Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh.

So yeah, not gonna write up a full update of this level. I don't really have much else to say about it anyway.
That's what the Forerunners thought lol

The Flood / Re: Why don't we just kill all insects?
« on: September 15, 2015, 06:47:22 PM »
Everything has a purpose. Take the icky insects out and you will destroy the global ecosystem (biosphere) and doom us all. Including plants.
bees can stay or whatever. trees just need air water dirt and sun to survive. all the other insects can fun right off. They can stay in other corners of the world where there's forest and where humans don't live. Just make sure they're dead once they come around the areas where humans live.
Hm, I would agree but...the consequences...too great. Let's just wait for some sort of way to do that in the future.

I think discretion should have been used here. Verb's asking what the flood are and you're basically dumping a few games worth of content along with the heavy novels on top of him.

It's a bit to process. And Verb's still at ground zero. He hasn't even finished the first campaign yet, yet alone if we know he'll be up for the others in the future.

Maybe ya shoulda stuck to simpler explanation for the moment. Don't spoil all the man's fun now.
Oh.

I'm not editing that glorious wall.

I never asked you to.

I was just saying that it seemed like too much of the token overload bestowed upon newbies.

Ever been introduced to a series by somebody who then completely bombarded you with a million different points all at once that lead to way, way farther into the stories and plot lines?

And you just sit there like, "How does this relate to the main character who just got their ass handed to them by a crab?"
Sigh, you have knack to make people feel bad about themselves. My bad.

Aw for fuck's sake. I didn't come in that hard did I? God dammit.

That's the opposite of what I was going for.
In any case I placed spoiler tags on the explanation, a long answer and a short one.

that's really cool, OP

It has better story-telling because it has an actual story. HL1 is just a series of unfortunate events that happen to very nerdy man in a very nerdy place.

Alright, Potato, I'm gonna do my very best to explain to you what the Flood really is. Ready? Cool.

The Flood's existence began with its end. Millions upon millions of years ago, the Precursors (the creation gods of the Halo universe) created the life on the Milky Way galaxy, they treated the galaxy as an experiment of sorts. When both humanity and the Forerunners (the two being the Precursors' greatest creations) gained space-faring and space magic capabilities, the Precursors decided that they were going to exterminate the Forerunners because they deemed them unworthy of the Mantle of Responsibility (basically a religious mantra they gave to the apex species of each galaxy). Not wanting to be wiped out, the Forerunners counter-attacked. The Precursors being so friggin flabber-gasted that one of their creations lashed out of them allowed themselves to be murdered by the Forerunners in galactic genocide. But some of the Precursors decided that that was wack yo so they manipulated their forms, turning themselves into dust.

Millions of years pass and the Forerunners come to believe the Precursors as their deities and that the Mantle was peacefully passed down to them by the long dead Precursors (they forgot their own ancient history because corruption and political tomfoolery). Over time, the dust that once was the Precursors became defective, and their long lost ships were discovered by Ancient Humans. These humans were super advanced by the way. They found out that the dust made their home pets act better and shit, so they spread this magic dust throughout the animal population of their cities. But what you know it, the dust made all of the animals turn to super-aggressive, they began eating each other, and through that began to shape into monsters. This infection spread into the human populace and thus...the Flood was born.

Well, after all that shit, the humans were able to fend off the Flood by sacrificing like half of their galactic empire to them in order to find a cure. Which, they believed they did after their supposed victory. Some more years past and the Forerunners kicked Humanity's ass in a war that lasted a millenia, and turned them into cave retards. Then boom! The Flood come out of hiding or dark space in Ass Effect terms and began to fuck the Forerunners in the butt. And how you ask? Well, when the Flood mass biomass into a single point, it becomes a Gravemind and the Gravemind coordinates the Flood into a military force that grows with each victory. And not only that, since they are indeed Precursors still, they began to manipulate ancient Precursor sites and tech, particularly the Star Roads, the Star Roads were immense invisible rings that tied solar systems and stars together. They were made of neural physics (space magic) and were indestructible. The Forerunners didn't have anything to defeat the Flood, even the Dildact was like "shit nigga." As their last option, the remaining Forerunners decided to built the Halo Array in hopes in defeating the Flood.

Blah blah, they activated the Rings killing all sentient life in the galaxy. But since Forerunners didn't want to just end everything just yet because the Mantle told them not to, they conveniently rescued all life they deemed cool and rad enough to the Ark which was outside the Milky Way and safe from the Halos' effect. All Precursor tech was destroyed because the Halos destroyed neural physics. Unluckily, the Forerunners being the short-sighted dummies they were stored some Flood samples in the Halos... not a bright idea.

tl'dr: The Flood were once asshole gods that came back as parasites to fuck shit up because lolz.
