Subject: Bungie and 343 Industries

As we all know, some Bungie employees left Bungie and joined 343. From what I've been reading in comments on videos, a lot of people are saying that 343 is made up of nearly 80 percent of former Bungie employees (most people just say '343 is practicaly Bungie'). Is there really that many former Bungie employees at 343?

Thank you that's exactly what I thought, I just wanted to be sure and obviously I trust people here more than I do randoms.
The only person I know, by name, from Bungie that went to 343 is Frankie O'Conner.

Shishka, or Chad Armstrong, also went over to 343i.

It is possible to commit no errors and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life.

Cheeto is the only one among you that doesn't suck.

Yeah, I thought something like only 3 or 4 people went over. So unless 343i is made up of 5 people, I don't think that it's 80% Bungie.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

I've heard from Bungie employees that you can count the amount on one hand and there are less than 5.

I don't always ban people but when I do I laugh uncontrollably...that's if I was a Forum Ninja.

Truth is a matter of perception.

I believe Achronos said that only 5 Bungie Employees went to 343i and none of them actually worked on Halo.

You can count the number of former Bungie employees who now work at 343 on one hand.
