Subject: Do you think 343i is going to do a good job with Halo?

I don't see why people say that 343i is going to kill Halo. Some of Bungie's main members are working in 343i. They know Halo runs and what the fans want.
Just give them a chance

No they aren't. The only main Bungie guy I've heard about it Frankie and all he did was write the Weekly Updates.

Frank O'Connor is Halo's Franchise Development Director. I'm pretty sure he knows what's best for Halo.

He didn't have that role at Bungie and really, he hasn't been THAT great. He wrote a pretty mediocre story in Evolutions.

Well, only time will tell. I have faith in them though.

Baseless faith.

Just to clear this up, the number of former Bungie employees at 343 "can be counted on one hand".

  • 06.20.2011 5:04 PM PDT

I believe Bungie has set the standard for any Halo game (obviously). That said, I think 343i knows exactly what is expected of them, and will work accordingly.

Who knows? You might be surprised. ;)

Well, as long as they don't try to copy CoD or Crysis like Bungie did with Reach, as long as they focus on the core Halo gameplay, they'll do better then Reach at least, that's not such an feat but I'm sure it will be decent at least, better then Reach anyhow :)

“We are the Mirratord. We strike with speed and stealth. Our enemies will not see their deaths. They will not know their fate. In darkness, we will see light. In light, we will see darkness. No matter the location, we will see victory. If we fail, no one will know. Like a ghost, our presence is a mystery. For the honor of the mirratord" join the Mirratord

Ever since they green lighted Halo: Legends I've completely lost faith in them.

Don't worry, you're still your mom's favorite Bnet member.

I think they will surprise us in a great way. :)

I personally am not to interested in Halo 4 because well...Bungie isnt making it.I am going to buy Halo:Remasterd because come on...ITS HALO 1!!!But 343i hasnt made any games all they did was Halo Waypoint and the Defiant Map Pack for Reach.So going off that info im not sure 343i could do what Bungie did.What do YOU think???
I don't agree. You can argue that Bungie did a good job with Halo 3 and Reach because sales were so good. Kids make videogame sales. but for the purist and people who enjoy strategy and skill 3 and Reach were big steps backwards.

I fear that 343 will do the same thing and make a game that sales to little kids who just want to rush instead of getting back to what made Halo so good. We shall see.

I am speaking for myself. After years and years of reading, and debating some, the opinions here in these forums I can honestly say that is the general opinion of the long time fans.

You are correct not all but you can generalize. By the definition of the word we are talking about the "general" population. Not all but the majority.

Frank O' Connor wrote the weekly updates during the Halo 2 era. Now he's in charge of the entire Halo franchise. How is that good!? A person who wasn't even around for the game that started it all, a person who never wrote any of the story for the games, a person who has never even developed a game before, is now incharge of the story many of us love and trusted to Bungie. And it might not affect those who only play Halo for it's multiplayer, after all it probably will play the same as most Halo games, but I know many zealous fans, who love the story, that are concerned for the sacrosanctity of the Universe Bungie created.
I hope I'm wrong. After all I tend to be somewhat pessimistic at times, though I like to think I'm only being realistic. But after seeing what was done with Legends I don't think this will go anywhere good.

I think you need to slow down. It looks like you wrote that as if he were doing all of the writing, design, and coding himself.

That's the Halo fanbase for you.

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

For now, I have faith in Frankie.
