Why do grunts have four toes?

Lol, you guys thought Reach screwed with the canon.

the unggoy have always had 3 tripod like feet, look at Halo combat evolved to Halo Reach

That’s actually true.

How cares? they were designed like this, this time around.

Ok why does the Flinstones had 4 toes. Because they are cartoons just like a grunt. Accept the grunt is in the video game and not TV. Duh!!!

Why are some people black?

Different race of grunts.

Or maybe we should all just realize that this is a meaningless aesthetic change. It will in no way effect any part of the game. Therefore making MULTIPLE THREADS ABOUT THE NUMBER OF TOES THE GRUNT HAS IS STUPID.

But why? Grunts had always had the 3 tripod like feet in the halo canon even in the media. They look like mini brumarks.

Because it really makes absolutely no difference?

Different race in humans =/= extra toes

Who cares about what you think? As long as the characters are actually in the game, then I’ll be happy with it.

Why do people have 5 toes?

This is such a ridiculous topic…
We haven’t met all Grunt-types in the Halo universe, how could you know that this isn’t canon? Same for the topic: “Why did they changed the anatomy of the Grunts”.It would be better to discuss other topics and not such an unimportant thing.

funny thing is, they have always had 4 toes, but in the older games the 4th toe is on the back of their foot.

To stand a better chance against you guys.

They walk up, you start staring at their feet trying to figure out what’s wrong with it and in the meanwhile they will kill you.

Poor Grunts never stood a chance as cannon fodder, so evolution granted them a fourth toe for distraction within 4 years.

(On a more serious note: if you complain about this, did you also complain about the physical change in the shape of Jackal’s heads from CE to H2 and such?)

Yeah it’s called 4 toes distraction mode and it is a armor ability developed by grunts.^^

Hmmm, I don’t know. Black, White, Asian, all the same. just different variations in skin tone of the same race. Just like the Skirmishers and Jackals. These are the same grunts, they just don’t have everything covered up like they did before and it’s a different artistic impression.

Yes, but changing what was supposed to be a black exokeleton into SKIN, is not right. I don’t care about the number of thumbs, but look at this and then at this. They changed them from being insectile to being fat little blobs. No matter how good the new look is, that just isn’t right…

I think the better question is…

WHY DO YOU CARE!?

They look good and apparently play good, who cares? Really?

If they gave Elites fur, would you not care? It’s basically the same, but the Grunts’ true look wasn’t as noticeable.
