Perhaps they were just the remains of the Forerunner version of the local police force making a last stand?Balrog wrote: The fact that they lost to Space Zombies to begin with has always been damning, the Origins anime is just icing on the cake. There really is no excuse for sending down five biological soldiers with silly weapons to combat any amount of Flood, or whatever it is they were doing down there.

Re: Flood v. Trekkies
Meh trying to make up excuses for the flood is just lame. It would be better off if the Flood never appeared after the first game. They were a stupid enemy to fight in the first game. After five levels battling the brilliant covenant armies suddenly facing generic zombies made you go wtf. In the sequels they amped the flood to a factor of eleven and made the halo universe revolve around them. Trying to explain the flood as a galactic threat just end ups being cringeworthy . Like teh posts here about why anakin /padme romance in aotc was good because apparently real people are like that.
I have to tell you something everything I wrote above is a lie.
