They could just put flood in either as an unlockable/download off marketplace, just for skirmishes.

that would be kinda dumb

For the factions, lets say this is like EAW. I will compare them to the factions that're and or might be in the new game.

 

Rebels = Humans     *smart faction*

Empire = Covenant    *has most power if you haven't known that*

Pirates = Flood    *like the pirates, the flood don't have many units*

But that is just my opinion. Feel free to post your thoughts about faction-related statemants.

 

 

 

 Oh, and if you are just going to whine or flame like a noob, you're wasting your time and my time.

Doesn't that defeat the purpose of the flood?

>I need a smaller signature image<

i agree, like in AoM (ex.Greeks:Strongest, Egypt: Best defense, Norse: conquest, Atlantean: Power)

Not with a bang but a whimper.

Well, I think the Flood won't be a full faction. Maybe a side-faction or sidetrack in the storyline.

so whats the point of this thread?

Um... yeah, what is the point? 

Actually, this thread is for you to post YOUR ideas of how the factions will be, and explain how they will work in the full game.

This is at the begining of the Human Covonant war. The Flood have not been uncovered yet, infact they will not be relesed for another 30 years.

Sebeuroc:

In all of the AOE and AOM games there were a bunch of playable civilations.  In fact, in every RTS I can think of there are at least 4 civs...  I can only think of three for HW.  Humans, Covenant and Flood...  We know humans will be playable, I mean, duh.  What about the other two?  I know the covenant would be awsome, but I think the Flood could be really cool too...  Just think about controlling hordes of infected soldiers.  That would also bring a really interesting gameplay type to the game, infect the enemies armies.  That would be awsome.

 

Then again, I have no idea how the flood would fit in the storyline.  The novels/games never mentioned anything about the flood before MC discovered them on Halo...

 

Ideas?  Comments? 

even if the flood arent playable in this game, it will still most likely be my favorite RTS, i mean, RTS's are awesome and halo is awesome. putting those 2 together is genius.

HEY!!!! they can make new uunits like the brutes and the flying thing in halo 2 which halo 1 didn't have
