New grunts, opinions?

Ok so this picture exists: http://www.halopedia.org/images/a/ac/H5G-Render-Grunt.png
And to my surprise it is official, I simply want some stats on peoples opinion on this.

I think it’s pretty dope

Those eyes…did somebody pop its head or something?

Mah battle rifle.

There are plenty of opinions to go around inside that other Grunt thread, which I’m sure you’ve seen. So there is no point in discussing it again and snapping a poll to it. All you did was copy his link and create wasted space.

Its much improved over the Halo 4 model that is for sure.

It seems to combine aspects from each grunt design we’ve seen over the years. The Blue/Purple coloration of CE/H2, the arthropod qualities of H3/Reach and the overall profile of a Halo 4 grunt. The Grunt was the only Covenant redesign that I didn’t care for in Halo 4(all the others I either liked or were neutral on), so its nice to see them improved.

I wanted statistics. So yes I did just copy paste and added a poll, because I wanted a poll on this topic. Sorry,not sorry about taking up forum space.

50 something replies of statistics already in another thread, make a general consensus with that information. I highly doubt it will get bigger than that thread, since they’ve already discussed it before, if so than good job. If you want statistics for yourself so bad, go tally up responses in that thread to the liking of your poll options. Just using common sense is all. No offense, but #killrehash threads…

I’m happy with the new look. I’m glad the Grunts have their Arthropod features back. Mainly the harder-shell-like arms. Gone are the scales of Halo 4. The eyes are ok, not my favorite, but ok. Still not a fan of the nose fed tubes though, I preferred the original Halo CE Grunts with full face masks.

what a grunt…

Those eyes make them look kinda shark like and more aggressive looking i like them.

I hate the eyes, and the drool. Other than that, I like the arms and legs, and am glad they’re no longer reptiles.

They look to me like zombie Grunts. I hope this render isn’t the only form of Grunt we will be getting in the game, I mean purple Grunts? Really? I guess the only thing it would match would be the Battle of Sunaion level, but if the original tan-skinned Storm Grunts are also included, I will be alright (as much as I hated the Halo 4 Grunt designs).

The model has improved a lot from Halo 4, this time having what actually looks like an exoskeleton, but I don’t like the eyes, and I’d rather have the mouth be covered with the more traditional gas mask. I think the Halo Reach Grunts were artistically perfect, and I’d be perfectly happy to have something that looks like a high-resolution version of that.

I do kind of miss the gas mask, but assuming this model is from a grunt on Sanghelios, it wouldn’t necessarily make sense for them to be wearing it. Just giving 343 the benefit of the doubt here.

Sanghelios has an Earth-like atmosphere, no methane for Grunts to breath, if that’s what you mean. With this model the breathing just happens through the nose which, frankly, never seemed at all like a practical design. Its sole purpose seems to be to make the Grunts look uglier.

I wasn’t aware of the canon regarding the atmosphere on Sanhelios. Point to you, good sir.
