There are so many great source materials that producers can make use of (unlike the web series we have now). Horror-esque halo flood game could be setup with that Mona Lisa animation short we had awhile ago.
@@Slyj I was about to say, the Mona Lisa is the perfect setting for a terrifying flood horror game. They could also make use of the temporary flood invasion of New Mombasa from the third game. (I have no clue how they managed to reverse it, any real life infection of the same type and I’d imagine it would be impossible to destroy all spores.)
Crazy how if you die, your corpse can be infected which also makes sense since you are just a normal human. Anyone else ever keep the ODSTs alive on the mission the Covenant in Halo 3 just so they can get infected later on in that same mission?
No normal human would jump like that, could lift that hammer, one punch armored aliens when out of energy shields or magically regen health... My main problem with ODST is that they are basically Spartans for the sake of the familiar gameplay. Initially it was supposed to be a game based on stealth and strategy but apparently they decided to ditch that idea.
This has role play potential. "As the Flood slowly engulf the galaxy, in the relatively abandoned streets of Earth, a lone soldier that did not make it to the evac must hold out until the wave of Flood passes and he can get to safety."
Luckily this grave mind is mentally impaired and apparently believes the soldier when he told the grave mind that he's vaccinated against flood infection
The swords absofuckinglutely glassed new Mombasa specifically so that Earth didn't get screwed. If it weren't for the UNSC, they would've glassed the entire planet too

Played this last night in that one crater where you find dare’s pod at… and let me tell y’all something… it was set at night… which made it more terrifying and mind you as we all know we’re playing as a god damn soldier. Not a Spartan, a soldier, an odst trooper and with it set to night time made it that much more terrifying and even if I had a helping hand from other players and 2 elites it just wasn’t enough to survive the flood’s onslaught and I haven’t fought against the flood in so damn long and experiencing this as an odst trooper was just… traumatizing. As if halo 3 against the flood wasn’t bad enough as a kid, now this is a whole new level of scary

@@halogang9941 nah, halo 1, 2, 3 and reach? Great games ODST mediocre at best - felt like a fan made mod, and not in a good way. Firefight was the best thing to come out of it
If only we had the option to turn off the stamina, like disabling shields in halo 3 customs. Give a super realistic vibe, knowing you have to deal with all infection forms.
You can that’s how I play it, my health or “Stamina” doesn’t regenerate at all I’m constantly on a Red Screen makes every encounter with the flood way more terrifying 😬
@@Lamp37820 just add the black eye skull to every wave and round you want to fight and your health will never regenerate just don’t give yourself Melee weapons cuz then it takes the fun out of the entire challenge yes you can melee here and there still but I do it as minimum as possible and let me tell you these cheeks be getting clapped like no tomorrow maybe add the famine too so that when you get melee weapons you can’t use them for to long 😩😂
I can understand why Flood firefight is available for ODST for now because I think playing as a spartan would be less of a challange considering you can just ran away with your shields recharging, but as a ODST you need to be really be cautious because you have no shields and you can get infected by those little Flood spores, and I think you also need to heal with medkits somewhere it's been a while since I watched ODST gameplay.
Tips from an avid Floodfighter. Destroy the bodies when they fall. A punch or two will do nicely- trust me, it'll save you a lot of time, health and ammo. When they jump at you- and they will- punch them first. Typically punching an unshielded combat form is a better idea here than in Halo CE. Use plasma, spike or incendiary grenades on the Carrier forms. This will stop them from spawning infection forms. For tank forms, try sticking them on the head with a plasma or spike to kill them. An incendiary will kill them no matter where you hit. AoE weapons (like shotguns, rocket launchers, fuel rod cannons). Automatics. Plasma rifles. These are especially good against the Parasite. My personal favorite would be either SMG, assault rifle or plasma rifle. Energy swords and gravity hammers are your best friend in fighting your way through close-quarters Flood.
What’s cool about this is that the BR was never originally in ODST and only a model for when the Squad Fights that chieftant on the helipad. The Model shows up when there a Police officer who is holding it in his hands right before dying to the brute Chieftant
They also added the energy sword. It's so strange seeing an ODST using one since they're so large. And the hammer, I'm not sure if you could use it in the original game but it's here now.
Me! That's me! I loved it so much. I also put a ton of time into horde mode shooters, like with Gears and it's incredible horde mode with TD elements built in. I would love something like that for ODST, it would be so sick.
Ahhh i remember when the door was opening and the flood from the other side started to jump in.......kinda terrifying since I didn't get the shotgun yet.
This looks so epic, like you aren't just trying to survive, you are trying to find something else to keep killing them with their own guns, then running out of them then getting the turret and depleting its ammo, they aren't stopping any time soon. So realistic and feels even scarier if we consider odst's don't have spartan shields. So amazing BUT WHY IT TOOK SO LONG GOD DAMN IT, literally my only but a very big complaint
Because Bungie/343 have/had no imagination when it comes to keeping people into their games/replayability. They introduce a new game mode in Reach (like Invasion and the Firefight Beta w/Marines), and what'd they do? Removed the AI Marines (instead of expanding on it) and did away with Invasion in subsequent games. Halo fans themselves have had to come up with ways to keep themselves into the games. That's why fans like yourself are so diehard and dedicated. It's like a kid that gets a stick and a rock to play with. They'll come up with some of the craziest shit to keep themselves entertained with that.
what make this gamemode of flood firefight even better than the firefight of covenant.elite and sentinel is the flood fog and the gravemind talking through the combats form body is even scared at nighttime map
Do you think it'd be possible to mod the Mombasa Streets level in its entirety into flood firefight? That would be seriously cool. Awesome update, cheers to the devs 🍻
Considering that the mod tools for Halo 3 ODST just came out, I believe that somebody out there can do it as well as add flood scenery into the firefight maps to make it look like an infestation which would give the maps a darker horror like tone.
Even if it does seem a bit scary, the announcer always removes all fear. I mean seriously, imagine you’re alone in some really creepy mansion but then you hear the halo announcer say “team death match” or something. I personally would feel much less scared
nah, imagine you are walking alone in the woods, then you hear some voice in the distance saying "Firefight!" "Set start, tough luck on!", and suddenly a green haze appears and you start seeing several angry monsters running after you
This is also lore accurate in a way as the Flood did crash land near Africa a few miles away from New Mombasa, some of thw flood forms may have made it to the city and it was evacuated anyway so infections would have been extremely minimal and managable and got destroyed anyway.
Rather unfortunate that you don't get instantly infected when the Infection Forms hit you...would've made this way more terrifying as a 'normal' human...
Yeah I was thinking the same thing maybe they can make a separate wave, kinda like a mini boss wave of only infection forms if they touch you, you die.
I wish the halo tv series was based around this setting. The flood outbreak that occurred in halo 3, but as a perspective of a soldier, not a spartan. Just trying to survive the outbreak and the glassing that occurred. It could even be a sad ending where they survived but got glassed anyway.
I think we were all hoping it would be Lore Accurate. But sadly, some asshat had to go and make a quick buck off the franchise. I hate it when people purposely ignore the Lore to "Make my own mark on the franchise" or to "Tell my own story in that particular setting". It's infuriating, and thus dashed every hope that Halo would get a GOOD TV show/movie in the future.
ODST 2 could be a story of how your squad is mercilessly hunted in New Mombasa while trying to escape leaving you as the sole survivor. Hunted by the Flood of course.
The potential to make a amazing halo game is easily there I think 343 just needs people that actually played Halo Game or something I’m lost at this point
this might be my favorite update yet. If only there was more customization. Also these old firefight maps are definitely optimized for fighting covenant. The flood are so direct and close the distance so quickly for these older linear maps.
It's good it's finally been added don't get me wrong, but I can remember when ODST Came out in 2009 and this was requested for ages, even when Reach came out in 2010 it was still requested and Bungie didn't add them in, 12/13 years later lol talk about listening to the fans😭
Being able to headshot the flood is probably the whole reason they became so lame after CE. The flood are supposed to make you play differently, but in h2/3 they were little different than skirmishers or grunts to kill. Saying that Bungie were probably forced to enable this after changing the role of plasma weapons from good units in their own right, to just shield shredders; afterall you would need alot of ammo if headshots were disabled and half the guns lying around are probably plasma based. Shame; I honestly dont know why campaign and multiplayer needs to share the same weapon balance; bullets used to bounce off Elite shields in campaign, you almost needed a full clip and a melee to kill a minor Elite in CE!
@@slothboi7131 I think they can be killed with melees, it just takes a ton of hits to knock them down, unlike in later games when they disintegrate with melees. I think I made a flood buddy in CE and then hit it from behind a ton of times until it eventually died. But yes essentially they can't be killed with melees since you're just going to shoot them when playing for real.
I do like the mode however, I beat it basically without trying first time. I think there needs to be a difficulty selection. I want "The Library" on Legendary type difficulty. Call me old fashioned.
Imagine if you could get infected whilst alive like in the campaign and you’d have to complete a QuickTime event in order to fight off the infection form. That would be terrifying in first person.
Is so much fun, I remember back in 09 playing with 3 friends firefight and having one of the best and more fun games ever, I remember thinking if only if it had multiplayer. Now it has multiplayer plus the flood! It’s amazing
I got a death animation of a flood form burrowing into my neck as I tried to rip it off. Guess flood form can do a melee headshot. Also cool once you become a flood it uses the weapon you last used. First time putting down my old body as it tried to use the flamethrower on me.
Those retards at 343 had the perfect opportunity to introduce the flood in Halo Infinite, considering the game takes place on Zeta Halo. But of course, they couldn’t deliver.
Quite inaccurate, because: 1. As the shipmaster said: One single flood spore can destroy a species, and what do we see all around the map? Flood spores. Maybe this ODST is protected because of his helmet, or maybe he still has time. 2. Getting scratched by a combat form is already dangerous, a single scratch can infect you. I believe the same applies to the ranged form, too. 3. Do NOT let the infection forms touch you, not even once, remember that the reason they pop when they come in to contact with Spartans is because of his energy shields and armour. But even then, he was nearly infected in the comics, if it weren't for Cortana, Chief would have been toast.
The elite allies are kinda dumb that they would stay in the turret and not attack whats behind them also stalkers are bugged that they jump up and down the middle building in this map and not attack but overall its fun to get cornered in spawn
Cool game mode! Still think they should release a campaign as a marine in High Charity after Chief leaves, and you gotta escape through the city with the flood rolling in and elites fighting brutes and everything

@@slothboi7131 I think they can be killed with melees, it just takes a ton of hits to knock them down, unlike in later games when they disintegrate with melees. I think I made a flood buddy in CE and then hit it from behind a ton of times until it eventually died. But yes essentially they can't be killed with melees since you're just going to shoot them when playing for real.
@@slothboi7131 Thought it was still the case, shows how long it has been since the flood were back
I mean… you can headshot the flood in CE as well. A magnum shot to the infection form will drop them instantly.
Wow! Throwback nostalgia. I am playing this and recording gameplay tonight! ✅
I do like the mode however, I beat it basically without trying first time. I think there needs to be a difficulty selection. I want "The Library" on Legendary type difficulty. Call me old fashioned.
Well just customize it to your liking
Imagine if you could get infected whilst alive like in the campaign and you’d have to complete a QuickTime event in order to fight off the infection form. That would be terrifying in first person.
You can get infected when your dead which I see your point but at least they added that.
He went out in a blaze of glory
Is so much fun, I remember back in 09 playing with 3 friends firefight and having one of the best and more fun games ever, I remember thinking if only if it had multiplayer.
Now it has multiplayer plus the flood! It’s amazing
True!
That ending, throwing the nade like it was a frag hahaha 😂😂 I could watch this all day, but playing this mode myself: no wayyy!!
I got a death animation of a flood form burrowing into my neck as I tried to rip it off. Guess flood form can do a melee headshot. Also cool once you become a flood it uses the weapon you last used. First time putting down my old body as it tried to use the flamethrower on me.
How Very Good Skills You Are!
Because i Enjoy It Recently.
And i kinda miss my Favorite Melee weapons, "Energy Sword" From Elite Traditional in Halo.
I always hated when those thing suddenly do a freaking Olympics jump towards you.......
We need a halo that brings back flood to the modern day I’d play just for that
This gamemode looks good asf tho
Those retards at 343 had the perfect opportunity to introduce the flood in Halo Infinite, considering the game takes place on Zeta Halo. But of course, they couldn’t deliver.
There was honestly soooo much shit they could have done with Zeta Halo, but that would require effort I suppose.
Flood in FF means new campaign mod ideas
2:17 When your cliped finished, I actuall got scared.
Always wanted to see odst fight the flood
Quite inaccurate, because:
1. As the shipmaster said: One single flood spore can destroy a species, and what do we see all around the map? Flood spores. Maybe this ODST is protected because of his helmet, or maybe he still has time.
2. Getting scratched by a combat form is already dangerous, a single scratch can infect you. I believe the same applies to the ranged form, too.
3. Do NOT let the infection forms touch you, not even once, remember that the reason they pop when they come in to contact with Spartans is because of his energy shields and armour. But even then, he was nearly infected in the comics, if it weren't for Cortana, Chief would have been toast.
Playing halo 3 odst floodlight for the first time was terrifying.
The gravemind talking makes this mode way scarier.
The ODST smg shreds the flood.
I love they added the gravemind voice
This is what would happen if the Flood-infestedHigh Charity actually went to Earth.
Imagine if 343 added the flood music from Halo CE.....
Bitch please, this was already a playable game mode in Pavlov VR
omg i miss odst, even unlocking recon helmet for halo 3 :'( good times
Man, I sure hope Halo gets a TV show…
The elite allies are kinda dumb that they would stay in the turret and not attack whats behind them also stalkers are bugged that they jump up and down the middle building in this map and not attack but overall its fun to get cornered in spawn
Cool game mode! Still think they should release a campaign as a marine in High Charity after Chief leaves, and you gotta escape through the city with the flood rolling in and elites fighting brutes and everything
I agree
Pro tip for anyone tired of getting smacked around by Tank forms.
Grab a Brute Shot. 2-hit melee kills on Tanks.
Play at night. It really set the vibes of fighting the undead.
Note taken
11:51 was fucking badass, popped once in the head followed by a quick melee that finished him lmfao
The fact that they're updating MCC and not Infinite still blows my mind.
Please have mercy on yourself, press 4 to enable night vision.
Its like the whole city is been attack by the flood. So coooool!
Well it technically did happen in halo 3, but new mombasa was mostly empty at that point until obviously the area got glassed
I wonder if it was like this when the flood landed on earth before the elites glass the continent.
You Know What Better Than Any Of Floods Swarms In Halo?
*An Giant Floods Scarabs* On Halo MCC PC Mods.
Because Giants Floods Scarabs May Be My Greater Challenge. And because The GraveMind Is Making "More Giant Floods Scarabs" Than You Didn't know. And it's Quite Neat, is It? :P
Me at 1:25
“NO DON’T GO IN THERE”
Honestly about to pick up ODST again just for this.
This game mode was fun and very challenging I mean especially when you had to earn the recon helmet. Turn on the skulls and difficulty all the way to legendary.
Fun game mode 👍🏻
Yeah
Instead of a abandoned city
Now it's a city infected with the undead
Turn your gamma down and play at night without NVGs. That's true terror
I put on some of the Undead Nightmare ost while playing this...
Freakin awesome.
This game is quite handsome on PC.
listen 343 are forgiven for finally giving us this hah
