Timespan - 6 months

How many people (including the 26 that have already left) will leave Infinity Ward by October 2010?

There WERE around 91 staff as far as wikipedia is concearned (might not be legit but I don't see why it wouldn't be)

I bet 44/91 staff will leave

Winner get's a cookie!

Hmmm... I'm going to assume tha majority of the staff that would leave have either already done so or will do so very soon. So by end of next month lets say around 35. It doesn't seem to be that much of a stretch that another 9 staff would leave by then.

From then until October I think that there will be a gradual decline resulting in another 7 people leaving, so... 42!

Actually there were only 75 people credited for MW2, which means that 26 means 35% of Infinity Ward has left. that's HUGE, especially considering that it's all IW's LEAD developers are leaving.

I think the studio will close and then reappear under a new name, it'll be damn hard to keep at it being severely understaffed. At least I hope so, it'd force them to so something new very soon.

If IW were an army, then they lost most of their officers.

Enough to completely erase the studio from significance - not necessarily a lot, but the best people will be out.

I say 40.
