I'm glad bungie rarely listens to their fans.

grunts are small. no shields. weak.
jackals are small too. have no shields. weak.

I am ever so sorry to tell you that however much you would like this,
Its not gonna happen.
Its far to imbalenced and would just be so boring.
Bungie have already seen this with elites.

Join the Spartan I Project today.
We are here to help members achieve a 1,750 gamer score, unlocking all of the armor permutations for both Spartans and Elites, and rank up to your full potential.

Still not convinced? Check out our Promo video for a more in depth look at what we are all about.

Think of the player scales and models. How is a grunt of equal size to a spartan?

Unless they make a 7 foot tall grunt, you won't be seeing different player models of too many creatures from the Halo universe.

I think its a good Idea, what most people here are forgetting is that this is a video game! The is no reason to conform to the rules of the real world. It would diversify the world of the online community, sure there would be some height problems, but Bungie is full of intelligent people if they want it they can make it happen.

Also: one word...Brutes!...think about it.

i wouldn't mind it but we would need alot of armor to make it cool because i don't like having one armor to use but we might never see it happen and for all of you who hate other ideas of this well i rather see grunts taking me out then some brute running around with a shotgun and a rocke launcher in mm

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

If ODST was multiplayer, I would be all for the Jackal or Grunt, or Marine as playable models. But since Reach is likely a Spartan based game, lets just keep it to Spartans, Elites, and POSSIBLY Brutes.

I speak the truth, and truth speaks itself.
The lies disguise what you despise.
Run. Flee and be, what you've always dreamed.
What happens now won't matter later.
What you see will not be, nor what you imagine will not happen.
The end is close, so take your dose.

It would be cool, but pointless.

Make for some good Custom Games, though.

5 kinds of Grunts:
Minor
Major
Heavy
Soec Ops
Ultra
3 kinds of Jackals
Minor
Major
Sniper

They basically cover each field.

Thats ignoring the grunt Deacons, and addition of the curve back armor perms for grunts from Halo CE.

Also there are Jackal Ship mistresses and Zealots. And some Jackals in Halo CE were black, or had helmets.

I'm refering to in-game appearences.

Deacons and Suicide Grunts were in Halo Wars

Curve back grunts, and black/helmeted Jackals were in Halo CE

I am The Sapphire Knight

We could have that if Reach was class based, in addition to hunters and regular Marines.

Suicide Grunts are not ranks, they are just refitted Grunts used by the then-Arbiter to make sure that the Forerunner buildings were not flood infested. Deacons were used in that game as medics.

So you're basically suggesting that the "Curved-Headed" Elites were a seperate rank also?

"New Kinds of Grunts and Jackals" Doesn't just refer to Rank, just variation. Suicide Grunts would be a neat new variation of grunt to fight, along with Deacons. The Variations on the appearance of enemies would be a nice throwback to CE. And it would be interesting if they behaved a little different in-game.

Well we are talking about playable characters, presumably for matchmaking, and all the different types allow for more armor perms (a plus). Plus its just artwork for Blams sake! It doesn't matter that in-game they are weak. In matchmaking it wouldn't matter they could have shields like any spartan or elite. Just let the fans of the guys have their hope for this and stop hating on them for being FANS!!!!!one.

  • 10.07.2009 11:20 PM PDT

hell yer but only in custom games (maybe you can set a custom and a online character modole)

7-foot tall grunt. OH THE HORROR

7-foot tall drone. OH THE HORROR

7-foot tall hunter. HARDLY FAIR HORROR

7-foot tall jackal. OH TEH HORRORZ

7 foot tall prophet. OH TH- Look, you know where this is going. The races we can play as now are the only ones that don't have weird hitboxes or look creepy resized. A 7-foot tall grunt would be really wide.
