The Hunters were still on the Elites' side after Halo 2, Bungie just didn't include Separatist Hunters and Grunts because they thought it would be too confusing for players. I know having friendly Grunts and enemy Grunts would get confusing to me (probably also why you didn't have too many Grunts with you ont he Arbiter's first mission in Halo 2, to avoid confusion between Heretics and your forces). I wouldn't be too confused by Hunters, since they're a rarity and they could be made to look different enough to tell them apart.
I can't say whether the Grunts as a whole were still with the Separatists or not, but I'm sure that there were still plenty of them on the Elite's side.
How would you get confused between the covenant Grunts and the Heretic grunts?
They look nothing alike, and the fact that your reticule goes green wehen looking at a Covy grunt just makes it alot more obvious.
And the fact that they made the Grunts your enemy when they were with the Elites in Halo 2 just made it more confusing. They could have cleared it all up with one line like:
"The Grunts/Uggnoy have betrayed us." said by Thel
OT: They should have a phantom drop a few hunters and grunts on the storm when you charge the AA gun. And have a few Separatist ships attack the forunner dreadnought
I was talking about Separatists not the Heretics. Having friendly and enemy Grunts in Halo 3 is what would have been confusing, the Grunts would both have incredibly similar designs and it would be very easy to get the two confused.
