Something I found out when fighting flood....

[Sugarlumps]

Okay, i found this weird trick to fighting flood. You might already know this, or you might not even heard of it.

Okay, just now, i was messing with Sparky's Halo Full Tags, and i took flood from it. I set a gun (Plasma rifle) to spawn them. I put in an energy sword from the CE Tags. O_O" Okay, so when I spawn flood, they just stand there breathing (?)... It took 5 melees from a fuel rod to kill them, front and back O_O, by hitting them. Then I got bored and started jumping around, and pressing the melee button too. Strangely, in the middle of a jump, when u fall back to the ground, i pressed melee, and hit the flood on the "head" and it got hit BACKwards, like, flew backwards! That helped in my d40.map (which i like playing cause of flood) and saved me some time to reload and stuff...

So yea, you have to time it well, and hit it on the "head" to knock it back. Useful when they come in swarms.

You probably already know this, but im just posting it here for ppl who dont know.

Yea, just cause u nvr tried it doesn't mean it doesn't work. Got to time it nicely, doesn't work on the tiny tiny tiny flood that pops

Just a question:
Does this work on all bipedal Flood forms (ie, the ones that explode into a bunch of tiny Flood spores, the human and elite ones, etc)?
