Yeah, 343 has lost quite a few senior employees lately and they have quite a few job positions opened for senior roles still, even one for live service director, Lol. It's a bit concerning but I'm not surprised, I suspect a lot of these departures are frankly burnt out, I posted here a few months ago someone from 343 in their Linkedin saying he led the teams through, what was it, like 16 months of crunch? Something around that. It's likely a reason why you keep seeing Joe bang on about team health, he doesn't want to burn out anymore employees, I know the content wait is frustrating but I don't imagine 343 is a very desirable place to work at right now and if Joe starts crunching them to get content out then you'll see even more departures and delays. Hopefully her leaving doesn't set things back too much because I know all maps have to work with bots before they release and she is responsible for bots and we know bots will play a big part in Battle Royale, hopefully the tech is already in place for Certain Affinity to just adapt. Do you mean Tom French? I like him a lot too, Forge was amazing thanks to him, mechanically the multiplayer is brilliant too, we just need the content! |
poor lady had probably worked 36 hours straight leading up to that livestream. Doesn't seem like Joe s crunching them since the next season is 6months. So basically until they fill out their roles or expand more, 6 months looks like it will be what it is for a while.
