Guys help me out with this... i'm trying to figure out what the grunt enemies are in FF7. You know the ones you fight in the bombing mission - blue guys that use beam cannon or particle beam or something like that.

ne ideas other than guys in blue spandex with claws n a gas mask?
 
because if i model one i'd like to know what i'm making other than just following a very vague humanoid shape
 
They seem to be what the Shinra guards in red coats and Russian style hats turn into when they fight :|

I don't think there's ever really an explanation as to what they are; in fact, there isn't much of an explanation at all about most of the random enemies (as is the case with the majority of RPGs).

Seeing as they are the battle form of the guards, it's probably best to treat them as actual humans standing in a weird position.

Does anything like the grunts ever appear in Crisis Core? I haven't played it for a while, so my memory of most of the enemies is a little hazy. If there are monsters like that in CC, it would probably be best to base your model on them and use slightly stronger colours.
 
nop... the real confusing point is that these guys have claws on their feet and guns o.o
 
I always assumed they were overly makou treated humans. They're more like humanoid monsters than beast-like humans.
 
I thought they were some kind of attack robot for shinra

Yeah, I'd go for attack robot as well

Strange  :-o
 
As with most things in Steampunk/Cyberpunk/fantasy type games/movies/books, most likely Robots.
 
wallmarket sense in game and use it, i think they sense tells you name, But i can't remember (i know scan does in every other game)
 
They're called grunts lol, and unlike ff8 it doesnt tell you their life story.
 
They actully look alot like Deepground Soldiers to me. After I played DoC thats what I called them.
 
well, if your making a new model you could always model a more human looking soldier and scrap the original design.  I know they have a beam attack, so you could just add a gun to your model.  Just a suggestion because i have no idea what those things are. 


Maybe it's what a smurf turns into once he grows up and becomes a blood-thristy killing machine(we all know it's true)?

Something like that's probably the best way to go. I think a gun-arm is a winning design feature for Grunts. The Senior Grunts have em.
 
Well all I know is they ain't called grunts, not that it makes a huge difference as they are called combatants.

As for what they are, no clue.  Just a design by Nomura most likely.  Soldiers inside an armour.
 
maybe the hand layzarz are teh uber heavy and there trying to manual handel them correctly  cause thats what people look like trying to life a box thats too heavy for them
