Forum:Did the Forerunners plan actually work?


 * The Forerunners original plan didn't work. This is because the original plan was for all sentient life to die, therefore starving the Flood and letting life re-evolve without this menace.  However, not all sentient life died (ex. the Sangheili and humans).  Because of this, the Forerunners ORIGINAL plan didn't work. If only it were so easy. - minihalowars User:CovenantSeparatist  18:55, 18 May 2011 (EDT)


 * No their plan did work the humans and Sanghelli were safely relocated to the ark so they would be out of range when the halos fired Forgive My English TALK TO ME BABY 19:00, 18 May 2011 (EDT)


 * I'd say that it is debatable. The Forerunners succeeded only in slowing down the Flood, having failed to rid the parasite from the galaxy.--  Fore  run  ner '' 19:07, 18 May 2011 (EDT)


 * Why not just watch the first and second eppisode of the Halo Legends DVD. It shows a flood parasite survived the firing of the halo's. And dont forget the flood that took over the shield world in halo wars. SPARTAN-225 13:42 19th may 2011 (EDT)


 * The Flood in the Halo trilogy and in Halo Wars had been held in containment facilities before they escaped. Any Flood that were not in containment when the Halos were activated starved to death. Thus, aside from dying in the process, the Forerunners' plan was mostly successful. They couldn't have expected the Flood to escape containment thousands of years later. --Courage never dies. 22:20, 18 May 2011 (EDT)
