  • We all have asked ourselves this deep, ancient question. How many Grunts are there in the original Halo games? So we set out to count every single grunt in the original halo games. Which Halo is gonna have the most Grunts? Halo CE, Halo 2 or Halo 3?

    • @icarusgaming6269
      @icarusgaming6269 3 роки тому +25

      I'm gonna assume everything's running natively on its original hardware so we don't have to worry about framerate and resolution variation
      CE ran at 640x480 and was not capable of widescreen. That's 307,200 pixels per frame. Chances are the copy you played was NTSC and ran at 30 FPS, but there was a laggy PAL version that ran at 25. The campaign usually ran for a little under 10 hours, or 36,000 seconds * 30 FPS * 307,200 pixels = 331,776,000,000 pixels
      Halo 2 ran at 720x480 in widescreen mode, which gives us 345,600 pixels per frame. Information on its original framerate is sparse, but I think it's safe to assume it also held a stable 30. The difficulties were so wildly tuned that your campaign could take a lot longer depending on what you played on, but as long as you know what you're doing and stay off of Legendary it should take about nine hours or 32,400 seconds * 30 FPS * 345,600 pixels = 335,923,200,000 pixels

    • @icarusgaming6269
      @icarusgaming6269 3 роки тому +23

      Halo 3 used a rather unusual double-buffered 1152×640, which the 360 converted to its 720p rendering setting. That's a whopping 737,280 pixels per frame. It also held a stable 30 FPS with a brisk 8 hour campaign, which comes out to 28,800 seconds * 30 FPS * 737,280 pixels = 637,009,920,000
      Finally, CE: 331,776,000,000 + Halo 2: 335,923,200,000 + Halo 3: 637,009,920,000 = a grand total of... 1,304,709,120,000 pixels (1.3 trillion). I would convert that to megapixels, but the fraction is so large Wolfram refuses to reduce it

    I mean, it kind of makes sense with the addition of more enemy types (like drones for instance) in Halo 2 and 3. With the addition of new enemies, they would have to balance the total number of both enemy and friendly AI in those games, so reducing the number of grunts would probably be the best way to do that.

      I was hoping they would take the higher of the two. I think to do it properly, they would have mod the damage they do and kill every ally not in their vehicles. Speaking of which, NPCs in the passenger seats and gunners count towards the driver’s count.

    I think that a significant part of the reason that Halo: CE is my favourite is that mix of enemies. I remember playing Reach, and the hunters never quite feel like the boss fights they did in CE, the lack of grunts (to my feel) meant that there was less fighting the horde (I love CE for this - The Library is one of my favourite levels to play) and the presence of the Brutes made things feel easy in the face of the more challenging Elites. The grunts were a solid side-band threat in CE. They could deplete shields or stick you with a grenade if you weren't weary. At the same time, unlike the Jackles, they never felt like bullet sponges. They never felt like a nuisance that impeded the flow of the game. I find it interesting how the Jackles and Grunts are employed very differently. When you're rescuing folks in the level "Halo" at the beginning, the Jackles apply pressure, but the Grunts generate the threat space and flank more readily.

    • @seandunne6914

  • @eoncroadon9528
    @eoncroadon9528 3 роки тому +1

    I feel like the numbers directly correlate with the introduction of new enemy types, some might go higher than 2 or 3 but not CE. CE didn't have the same number of enemy types/variants as later games, resulting in grunts being the only true cannon fodder enemy type in the game (popcorn flood are more weapon than enemy).

    One small factor I just considered if anyone else wants to try this even more thoroughly in the future is not using grenades/trying to stop your allies from doing so. There are many areas were grunts can simply just be blown off the map in the OG trilogy. Also if there was a way to get theater in 1/2 you could simply just go to theater mode for each game and use that to make the counts even more accurate. Because if you can count them as soon as they spawn in while freezing the in game world you could avoid missing any of the grunts

    It's a surprise that they weren't starting to die out in the end of it all, what with possible sterility being caused by too much PTSD and other crud received by the Grunts.
