Re: "Why preserve the Flood?" Here's why.
Posted By: Silent Knight <irish_bloke@hotmail.com>Date: 1/5/10 4:11 p.m.

In Response To: Re: "Why preserve the Flood?" Here's why. (Anton P. Nym (aka Steve))


: -- Steve thinks there's too much emphasis on the Rings wiping out the Flood
: in speculation lately... when they likely did no such thing, as we have
: been told many times the Array Pulse could not do so and could only
: deprive the Flood of hosts in the hopes of starving the infection out.

That was the impression I got from Halo 1 - unless that's been rewritten somewhere and I missed it.

Many people seem to miss the metaphorical nature of Cortana's recollections. The rings we've seen in the trilogy of games were of varying sizes, right? (I'm going off the pictures you see after the array is primed during the Tartarus fight) And Cortana's flashbacks in Origins had identical rings leaving through the Ark portal...
