In Response To: Can Flood Infect Machines? (Honestly)


: If the Gravemind can tap into the teleportation grid on Halo, could a flood
: parasite form infect and take control of a robot, like a sentinal?

Depends upon how you look at it
I suppose that infection forms could leech onto it, but they couldn't control it because infection forms utilize chemicals to tap into living organism's nervous systems (via their spine-like probes) and control them
Possibly a pureform could "morph" around it and use electrical impulses to manipulate the circuitry and control it (which means it would not work on sentinels because they don't actually have circuitry)
That second possiblility is purely theoretical
