	The Flood (Halo) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the event that the Flood was released, the Halos were designed to destroy all sentient life in the galaxy.
		The Flood on Installation 0-4 were completely destroyed in Halo: Combat Evolved and in Halo 2 they returned with a vengeance with the ability to use vehicles and command starships which could take them anywhere in the galaxy.
		The Flood is a fictional alien life form in the video games Halo and Halo 2.

	Halo Story Page Characters Monitors
		The installation (Halo) was built specifically to study and contain the Flood - their (forerunner) survival as a race was dependant on it (the containment of the flood).
		She had absorbed a tremendous volume of data from halos systems: eons' worth of records on halos engineering and maintenance, the xenobiology of the flood and every scrap of information on the mysterious "forerunners" the covenant revered so much.
		As has been observed in the game and sent in to us here, the Halo was built by the Forerunners to contain and study the Flood, as well as fight it if it ever spreads.

	Halo Library
		Halo was designed to study and contain the Flood infection, which was unwittingly set loose by the Covenant.
		Found on the fortress-world of Halo, the Flood are a group of parasitic life forms that will eventually consume everything with significant biomass in the universe.
		The Flood's parasitic nature belies their intelligence, for the Flood can access the memories of any host it infects.

	Halo Story
		Not to mention the extreme contact he's had with the Flood throughout Halo, I wouldn't doubt his MJOLNIR armor is covered from head to toe with Flood spores.
		It's puzzling how Cortana, with such a wealth of knowledge gained from the Halo (She must know all about how the Flood spreads), could allow the Master Chief to do such a thing.
		I don't know where we'll be in any sequels....but it doesn't seem like we'll be playing as the Master Chief again unless Bungie has some way to explain for his resistance to the Flood.

	Halo - Neowin.net
		At the end of Halo 2, the Ark is supposed to detonate all the halo's destroying the flood.
		The ark protects us from the flood, as previously stated- and for some reason I recall hearing that the Ark is safe from the Halo explosions...
		The Ark is supposed to kill all life, including the flood to stop it from spreading.

	What about the Sentinel Beam?
		I consider it to be good only against flood and other sentinels.
		The only thing it is good for is killing flood in campaign, and lowering shields in Multiplayer.
		sentinels are generally slow moving and flood usually run towards you or jump, so it can be effective against that.

		Haloe : the Flood is actually the story of Halo "1" with all the gaps filled in, it says a lot about the game's story in all 3 books
		in Halo 1, if u've read the books (Part 2: The Flood) (i dont remember clearly, actually) when the marines/ODST's setup a base on Halo they actually open something at the bottom of their base from where the flood come out.
		In Halo 2, they were everywhere- the Sentinal Wall, the Threshold installation, and even in some quarantine zone surrounding the Library.

	The Ark (Halo) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Ark could then be seen as perhaps a bastion from the alien parasite The Flood and the destructive power of the Halo weapons, a place where the Forerunners perhaps placed those chosen to propagate the species or even genetic samples.
		If the naming of the game's enemy, The Flood, is in reference to the biblical Flood, then the Ark may be a place that is safe from the Halos' firing when the Halos are activated.
		In Halo 2 there are a number of possible hints that the Ark is in the vicinity of Earth, perhaps near New Mombasa (the city in the game's second level that is destroyed due to a slipspace rupture caused by The Prophet of Regret’s ship).

	Peekaboo
		There could have been warring Forerunner nations (like we've got now), and one of them created the Flood to use against the rest, but it got way out of control, which is why they had the Halos for backup, and they made their planet (Earth) immune, but wiped out all the other Forerunners.
		I was thinking more along the lines of like at the begining of the game, it shows way back when the Forerunners activated the rings for the first time to prevent the spreading of the flood.
		I think we are the Forerunner, and Earth is somehow immune to the effects of Halo (maybe to ensure that something survived the last activation).

	The Covenant - Psychology Central
		As the Master Chief and UNSC discovered, the Halos were not built as religious icons; they are galactic weapons of mass destructive sterilization built by the Forerunners to contain a parasitic race known as The Flood.
		At the start of Halo 2 there are 3 supreme prophets, but during the game, the Master Chief assassinates the Prophet of Regret (the youngest) and the Prophet of Mercy (eldest) is infected and killed by the Flood, leaving only one supreme prophet, the Prophet of Truth.
		A heretic group led by an Elite referred to only as the "heretic leader" briefly controlled a Forerunner station in the atmosphere of the gas giant planet of Threshold, the planet around which the first Halo in Halo: Combat Evolved orbits.

	Xbox.com Halo 2 - Big One Tips
		After an opening mission that sees the Arbiter into his new armor and fighting an outpost of heretics that plays more or less like a Master Chief level, the Arbiter is dispatched to deal with a parasitic infestation of the Flood.
		The Arbiter even gets a first crack at those ancient parasites, the Flood, who are old news to the Covenant Prophets.
		Not to take anything away from Master Chief, who is and always will be the hero of the Halo series, but some of the toughest, most challenging battles in the single-player story line of Halo® 2 belong to his Covenant counterpart, the Elite holy warrior known only the Arbiter.

	Forerunner Forces
		The Monitor on Installation 04 was 343 Guilty Spark, when the Humans released the Flood on Halo he broke out the Sentinels and attempted to enlist the "Reclaimer" (Master Chief) into acquiring the index and bring it to Installation 04's control center thus activating Halos main weapon.
		Monitors: On each Halo there is a Monitor, an incredibly intelligent A. roughly the equivalent to the UNSC's "smart" A.I.'s such as Cortana.
		Sentinel Enforcers main weakness is if a soldier can get close enough and stick a couple of Plasma Grenades to its unshielded rear/underside then it can be damaged, to counter this Enforcers are almost always accompanied by regular more maneuverable Sentinels.

		The Halo as a weapon serves as a safety measure, obviously, to destroy the Flood, along with all life in the Galaxy.
		In Halo 1, Guilty Spark declared that, by protocol, he was the one responsible for the key on the journey to the control room.
		Reclaimer is just the name GS uses for the tool he is using to reactivate Halo.

		'''The Flood''' is a fictional alien life form in the computer game ''Halo: Combat Evolved''.
		The Flood were not completely destroyed in the first Halo game and made an unexpected return with the ability to use vehicles and command starships which could take them anywhere in the galaxy.
		As each Halo has a firing range of 25,000 light years there are still enough Halos to destroy all sentient life in the galaxy.

		The High Prophet of Truth plays a central role in determining the events of Halo 2.
		When the Flood begins to infest High Charity, a number of infection forms attack Truth, Mercy, Tartarus, and their honor guard.

	GameTrailers.com Forums - halo and halo 2 theories.
		I think it is very possible that humans may be the descendants of the forerunners, which i believe were wiped out mostly by the flood except for maybe a ship that landed on earth.
		I hope the forerunners are a new enemy like the flood were in the last game except not as gay.
		When Halo was first anounced, and it was made clear it took place on a 'Ringworld', I beveived that the plot was possibly connected in many ways to Larry Niven's "Ringworld" book series.

	...a fireworks bouquet of shrapnel and sparks...
		The Pulse would have killed all the defending Forerunner on the Halo's but it most likely stranded the Flood on the Halo installations as well, leaving them to be discovered by an unfortunate UNSC Navy Captain 100,000 years later.
		So the only other logical choice was that they built the Halo system in advanced, along with the Ark. This is where my logic ends, and I tend to go out on a limb, But I think the Flood were developed as something akin to Resident Evil's T-virus.
		If Halo 04 was any indication, the Forerunner weren't shy about building new installations in the same system as their older ones.

	Behind Halo
		it seems logical that humans (Forerunners) ages ago encountered the Flood, and created the Halo in a last ditch effort to save themselves...and succeded, and only a pocket of humans were spared, on earth...the others constructed the Halo sacrificing themselves to stop the Flood.
		They seem most persistent in their attempts to access restricted areas." It is assumed from this that GS knows that you are human, or thinks that the other humans on halo are forerunner.
		Why does GS think that you are a "reclaimer" and not part of the Covenant or any of the other humans on the ring, and why does he act like he's talked to before.

	PaintBall.com: Tournament Ball
		In their mad dash to grab and activate Halo, the Covenant released the very things that Halo is designed to hold and destroy, the Flood, an infection-like species whose spores infect a sentient being, take them over and create mindless zombies bent on sucking the brains of others.
		Soooo, as MC escapes this first Flood encounter, (which is creepy as all hell and one of the best cinematic moments I've ever experienced in a game) he meets up with a small hovering AI known as 343-Guilty Spark, the caretaker and controller of Halo...
		Upon reaching the Control Room of Halo, MC fights his way through an army of Covenant soldiers, downloads Cortana into the Halo system itself and heads off to a facility deep inside the artificial confines of the Halo continents to pull the magic lever that will make everything work.

	Halo Story Page Story Elements The Forerunner
		Perhaps the last time Halo was set off, the Forerunner were forced to occupy Flood beings, as the rest of the Galaxy was "quite devoid of life", and this is why GS says that "their [Forerunner?] survival as a race was dependent on it" - meaning the enduring of the Flood.
		Anyways, I was playing Halo and I started playing at "The Two Betrayals" and I noticed that when Cortana is informing the master chief of what he was about to do, she says, "The Forerunners" with an "s", as in plural.
		Once again, this clues you into being forerunner, for it is unlikely that the monitor has been exposed to more races than those who have made it onto halo, and if he is only aware of two, and one is the covenant, then the other must be human/forerunner.

	The Ark Of The Covenant - Crystalinks
		This Ark could be a reference to Noah's Ark, since activating it would destroy all life much like the Great Flood; interestingly, the purpose of the Halos is to stop the spread of a scourge that turns sentient beings into the "Flood", a horde of ravenous, zombie-like creatures.
		In the video game Halo 2 the "Ark" is a secondary control system for the ringworlds (the "Halos") that are capable of killing all life in the galaxy.
		The Mishkan was a "portable" Temple for the Ark of the Covenant.

		The Gravemind sent him on a mission to stop the Prophets from activating Halo.
		The Flood gained all of the knowledge that a captain of the UNSC would have stored in his brain, and thanks to that knowledge and Keyes' skills as a tactician, the Flood became that much more dangerous.
		Numerous sniping positions, vehicles, and favorable predisposition for CTF games have made this among the most popular of Halo's maps.

		At the Ark, the Halos can all be activated at once, as a last resort to full flood invasion, and acording to 2401 Penitent Tangent, it already has been activated before.
		Being a time of great crisis (the flood taking over), the forerunners made the ark the center of their last stand, implanting in it the information of their past, and their present.

	Halo2 story - Rage3D Discussion Area
		Well, the halos only kill the Flood's "food", not the little pure flood..balloon/popcorn/things.
		They may have found the information from the original Halo, clearly each device knew where all the others were so I guess it's possible after the 'Demon' destroyed Halo, they re-examined their data and found the location for another Halo.
		The prophet possibly thought that the ark would save him (and whatever forces were with him) from the "divine wind" of the halos.

	Cobb: Beyond Halo 2
		the halos don't kill flood...they kill their only means to spread which is all sentient life (meaning everyone else)...the halos were created to contain the flood, so when the rings were activated, they were already quarantined inside the rings, which is why they were able to survive.
		If Earth is the Arc, then it alone is safe from the Halo weapon, and/or the Founders were the original Earth inhabitants and Humans are the decendants of the Founders.
		Perhaps it escapes by being hardened against the Halos in some way.

	IGN Boards - Just completed Halo 2 but....
		c.the ark is a forerunner ship,with control of the halo rings,so im guessing the only way to get enough firepower to fight it is if cortana convinces the flood master to send the flood to fight the convenant
		far from it my friend; i love the kids who were good at halo 1 and when they discovered they werent as good at halo 2 they say it sucked; yes the single player aspect was not as good as halo 1 i will give you that but the multiplayer is far superior imo.
		Most of the people I play with are good at both games, if not better at Halo 2.
