Subject: Bungie-343

Is it true that quite a few Bungie employees went to 343 Industries to work on future Halo games?

  • 08.17.2011 1:06 PM PDT

I remember a Bungie Employee commented on this at one points, he said that, yes, some Bungie members quit to go work at 343i but there are not as many as people are thinking there is.

Give or take, less than 20.

If by "quite a few" you mean "three or four max", then you would be correct.

  • 08.17.2011 1:07 PM PDT

2 or 3, yes.

Yep. Including, they ever popular/ominous Shishka.

We were somewhere around Barstow...

Frankie - obviously
Shishka - possibly
Sketch - Doubt it

That's all I know.

You can count them with one hand. Frankie is the leader if you will, and I believe Shishka as well.

Only like 4-10 dudes went over. Frankie was one of them and he wasn't even a bungie employee. And shishka, and I thot he was just a ninja anyway. Bungie is stil ~300 employees strong. No worries.

Pretty sure Frankie and Shishka were the only significant ones

Since you cannot do good to all, you are to pay special attention to those who, by the accidents of time, or place, or circumstances, are brought into closer connection with you.

Shishka?

In addition, will Shishka be moderating their forums? Lol!

Not really quite a few.

Fun Fact: 343i has more people from Pandemic Studios than Bungie Studios.

Pandemic Studios was the game company that made Battlefront 1 and 2!

And I heard the guy who worked on the Metroid games also works with 343 now.

Halo 3 (31st), ODST (14th) and Reach (4th) Mythic Conqueror. (Mythic is Solo, Legendary, All skulls on + scoring on and no deaths/saves).

Yep! And you know what's more awesome? They have the lead designers of the Metroid Prime trilogy, which would be the guys from Retro Studios.

Also Bungie has roughly 200 employees.

I am pretty sure 4 went in, but sources have said less than five, so either 3 or 4 or 3.


Take 16. Less than 5 went in.

If you're being serious...I don't understand? Frankie obviously did and possibly Shishka.

Hi I'm RT and I like to argue!

I wonder if slightly rephrasing the question changes the answer?
