Halo |OT2| Hyper-Athletic Speed And Mass And Weight and Power

Does anyone else wish the flood were depicted more gruesomely? Like this: click at own discretion.

It's from The Last of Us btw.

I think Halo 3 did well making the flood more scary by actually showing marines getting transformed alive. If the flood is in Halo 4, I'd love to make it even more gruesome. Making the flood a little bit more gore-ish wouldn't hurt, but I wouldn't want to go to Gear's level of gore. Let the player hear the pain your allies are experiencing while they're being transformed maybe.

Yeah, I liked that bit in H3.
I wish they were more like the necromorphs, they are scary.
I still want my ODST Flood Dead Space.

Yes, I certainly would. I did feel Halo 3 was a big improvement on the flood models, went in that wet, ugly direction that they really belong to.
The descriptions of what they do, both physically and mentally are pretty gruesome, and so their visual (and auditory) design should match that.

If you want Flood to be scary you also need to make them actually hard to kill. Something that falls apart with a single punch isn't exactly frightening.

Last time they tried that we ended up with the Pure Forms. No thank you, I will pass.

Flood levels are at their most intense when you're getting swarmed by a bunch of the combat forms (like 343 Guilty Spark's combat form reveal). Increase that number, more intensity!

Sorry to hear that, might be appendicitis, hopefully it's nothing serious.

Kudos to Franklinator for the photoshop effect.

The stream on the MLG site is 2001 era cellphone quality. Anyone have an alternative? This shit's almost unwatchable, good job MLG.
You can change the layout to dual screen and press on the remove button on the bottom stream. Makes the Halo stream smaller and better looking (And smoother for me too).

Indeed.

Classic playing for keeps right now.

Damn, zero bloom and no sprint, this is pretty entertaining. Looking forward to the MLG playlist update (NEEDZ party restrictions 343!)

Seriously, it was good, I don't understand those haters.
I don't think anyone is a hater. I really enjoy the mini-tages, and am disappointed that a couple of them were taken down by Youtube. I was just poking more fun at the Tashi Ceiling joke.

Wow. Did they intentionally set the default to be Low? That was absolutely terrible quality.
 
That game was awesome. Sanc CTF is probably my favorite Halo gametype of all time (Midship CTF a close second)

Yeah imagine how good it would be if they put a better version of the map in the settings.

A possibility if Halo is in another event apparently, but they had to focus on Anni maps for this event, so Sanc got overlooked again.

Plasma Pistol kills prove extra badassery.
