*Carrier Forms in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' and in ''Halo 2'' are often distinguished from their ''Halo 3'' counterparts in the way they explode. The ones in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' and ''2'' will play a death animation before exploding, and there is no way to kill them or make them explode without making them play it. In ''Halo 3'', however, they are rigged to explode (and obviously disappear) when their health reaches zero, rather than play the death animation ''then'' explode, although they could still drop to the floor and detonate at will. | *Carrier Forms in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' and in ''Halo 2'' are often distinguished from their ''Halo 3'' counterparts in the way they explode.

*Strangely, when shot by the [[Flamethrower]], the Carrier Form will explode and release the Infection Forms, which seem to survive the fire. Possibly the carrier's explosion puts out the fire. This is strange considering that an Incendiary grenade will kill the carrier and the infection forms. The Incendiary grenade does, however, seem to have a small explosive force used to scatter the flames. | *Strangely, when shot by the [[Flamethrower]], the Carrier Form will explode and release the Infection Forms, which seem to survive the fire.
