I wonder if you will be able to play as the flood?  Either way I am officially worthless at work now thx to this annoucement

do we even know if the flood is in the game yet? all i've seen are the covenent and the UNSC

This game takes place before Halo so there shouldn't be any Flood in it.

I hope the flood are in, but if they are true to the timeline of the game, they will not be.

 The flood didn't appear until almost the end of halo 1, and this game takes place before halo 1.

well the game is set at the beggining of the UNSC and Covenant war so there wont be flood.

 

I for one will be playing as UNSC, controoling a group of SPARTANs sounds awesome!!

Oh, but if we have the option, I'm so playing as the Covenant :D

Yeah this game is Pre-Halo C.E.

 

USNC all the way... unless there is a space war then I will pick the Cov.. haha

Probably be just Covenant and UNSC.... Remember this happened before Halo 1 so the flood havent been discovered yet.

My fault... double post...

I'll probably prefer human weapons. 

 

I've never been a big fan of cov vehicles... no matter how much better they are 

For sure man. Finally my Arbiter will bring the destruction of the human filth...... hopefully.

Well...there's gotta be an enemy right???

 

And every RTS to date has allowed you to play every side..so..

Duh!  My judgement is clouded due to my exteme exuberance for this title.  Thx for settin me straight though.  Let's hope this community stays this cool and isn't invaded by annoying know-it-alls

I'll play both sides, but I think I will play mainly the UNSC.
