Wheely was right!

They hated Jesus when he spoke the truth

theyre saying its about 130 people now and most of them worked on campaign

Watching the burial live

Damn shame they killed this series like this

No DLC for sure, and we won't see a new game anytime soon.

Summary:
343 seems to have lost around 1/3 of its workforce (internal + contractors)
2023 plans seem unchanged by this major reshape: focus was and still is on MP for this year (Forge MM, new Seasons/BP, New maps and probably Tatanka)
Before Bonnie Ross quitting, Joseph Staten with a small team was preparing to ship multiple contained Campaign DLC to expand its narrative over the months or even years. This plan was stopped when Pierre Hintze and the new key roles came in after Ross as they've seen too much complexity in creating new contents for Campaign + was not enough profitable for them to sustain, so they decided to completely halt them in favor on focusing on MP only for the time being (this may have led to Staten deciding to leave too)
Halo Infinite largely missed its financial and overall goals and led to Microsoft decision to halt 343 "active development" transforming (or regress?) them into "franchise coordinators"
This means that other than supporting Halo Infinite MP (which is already largely externalized to Certain Affinity, Spearsoft and others), their role will be limited to make sure different external studios will create further Halo projects (direct sequels to Infinite story or spin-offs of different genre) respecting all the established lore and fundamentals for the IP
Slipspace Engine is still in place along with its internal engineers, but it will be opened up to learn and use also to all external studios working with the IP (if they want)
In this sense, 343 together with Microsoft Game Publishing started contacting (and contracting) with external studios to create "future Halo experiences" together since 2020, also with the aim to reduce/optimize costs/budget

I just wanna play juggernaut on Lockout like the good ol days

New shotgun is trash too damn

dam

Dawg this is so bad multiple campaign dlc too f***ing christ

They took the franchise away from them

I’ve prayed for this for years

Actually a W

Truly

lol

over/under season 4 getting delayed for another 6 months

This PR to save face or are they really keeping the franchise 😭

DAMN

I think share the franchise best move. Let other devs cook too and let 343 have ability to be more than just a halo factory

how these niggas still have halo is beyond me atp

worst timeline

I got an interview with xbox next week

what would you guys think will save halo and put it back on top/

Why didn’t Microsoft/343 reach out to Bungie dev’s when remastering Halo 1/2?
