If someone wanted to donate money to 343i to help with the development of Halo 6 and other games. How would they do that? Is there a Paypal? Bitcoin Adress? Freewallet?
I’m not informed in this area, but my guess is they don’t take or need your money.
There’s no way to directly donate to 343, but there are plenty of ways you can support the company if you have been enjoying their work:
-
Buy a game you don’t have yet from the store - Purchase some merchandise from the Waypoint store - Buy a few REQ packs if you play Halo 5 - Buy one of the team REQ packs and also help support some of the Halo teamsThere’s also plenty of ways you can support them without spending any money:
-
Be active here on the forums and engaging in discussions / sharing feedback - Join the Halo Community Feedback Program and leave your thoughts - Be active on any of the other amazing Halo communities out there, like on Reddit, Facebook, Twitter or Discord - Help spread the word of any cool Halo content you come across and share you own if you have any (if you post on twitter, use the hashtag #HaloHotShots and you could get featured in the weekly updates)
Basically buy Halo merchandise. That is the most direct way to give the company money.
They do a community stream every Wednesday I believe on Mixer. Maybe they have a donation button.
They have an -Yoink- load of money coming from Microsoft and from people buying their products. They’re not an indie or new developer by any means. Why not support other companies trying to get their games heard of?
It’s better to support 343i by other means such as social media.

I mean, not to get into the nitty gritty here but budgets are a thing. They don’t have a bottomless bucket of money from Microsoft.
Just in case others had that impression.

Nah, not a thing.

Yep yep. What I mean is that they have a lot of money to work with so giving them what would likely be a relatively small amount (unless OP’s budget for a donation involves a ton of Benjamins) is not beneficial to the company nor to the player. I should have been more clear in the first post.

Wow that is so nice of you🙂That’s what i call a real Fan of HaloXD!
343 is well past needing donations. The best way to support Halo right now is to buy Halo merchandise, especially from the Waypoint store. Play Halo and join the community feedback program and fill out the surveys… Stuff like that.
