Im not going to say this is a good thing, as we saw with the first version of warzone it was one of the reasons why we had to put up with REQ packs. But regardless, I was going through the 343i Job listings and found the following listed underneath the “Character IA Engineer”
Bonus Qualifications:
- Extensive development in a multiplayer environment. - Strong debugging and optimization skills in a multi-threaded environment. - **An amazing passion for creating games.**The first 2 bonus qualifications are what caught my eye, the first implies that they may be working with AI that has to go up against multiple players (This could also be related to the campaign obviously)
The second might be a hint towards split screen since the game is running 2 processes simultaneously.
This is just speculation.
All I’m saying is that we could take this and piece some theories together. But for all I know, I could be completely wrong
Oh and I found this in the “Online Experience Design Director” section
- Be able to adapt to the changing business and community needs that come along with being a live service
