I seem to be confused...

Why is everyone saying that Bungie > 343i

You guys do all realize that 343i is, in fact, 90% of the Halo-Based Bungie team, right…? Like, they shifted the personnel that worked directly on Halo games straight over from Bungie and made a specifically HALO company with 343i…

So…
Everytime you guys scream and -Yoink- and yell and whine about how 343i killed Halo and Bungie, half of their staff prolley sits there and weeps silently…

That’s like saying you love Prince, but that O{+> (Artist Formally known as Prince) -Yoink- just KILLED his music, and I hate him.

Dude, you can count the number of Bungie employees working at 343 on one hand.

-____________-

I can count the number of bungie members on one hand…343 is not 90% old bungie workers.

uhm, isn’t it around 7 ex bungie emembers now working for 343i …?
if the 34i team is that small then i fear for halo’s future.

You’re saying that all 343 has are Bungie guys? Check your numbers.

that’s not what i’m saying, i’m saying that there is a very small amount of bungie members that are working for 343i and since the OP said that it’s 90% bungie then because of the very small team of like 10 people makes me fear for the future of halo but obviously the team is more around 50 people …

oh, i never bothered to look up the numbers and guessed.

so, ~7 bungie members out of 200?
that’s no where near 90%, more around 3.5% …

No need to worry, Frankie said every one of the people at 343 are Halo fans, just like you and me.

it’s not whether they are fans or not, it’s whether or not that they understand the franchise and no what they are doing but i expect they do otherwise they wouldn’t have taken on the challenge.

Pretty much every 343 employee has worked at a previous game company.

You have the guys from Guerrilla Games(Killzone), Retro Studios(Metroid Prime), The creator of -Yoink!- Zombies, the list goes on.

Fail personally I’m exited to see what 343 is gonna bring to halo

343 has over 200 employees. Only 3-4 of them are ex Bungie.

Ah. Explains my confusion.
My apologies. I was grievously mis-informed.

Partial Stafflist

Vic DeLeon, Frankie, Shishka [and] I think someone who worked on halo CE.
