I'd still like to read a statement about this small team from rare actually working with the game hands on before I'm keen to believe it.
You have no idea where you heard it? You said it is a fact, so it sounded liek you had something more concrete in mind.


Unless i find the interview(s) in which i heard it which im not going to look for.  You can however find plenty of information about the Internal KI team http://n4g.com/news/1450672/internal-team-for-killer-instinct-still-at-microsoft-says-phil-spencer

After the piece of crap that was PD:Zero, I would rather current "Rare" left Perfect Dark alone...

Watch streams of KI.   There has always been multiple studios working on KI, even now.  And notice in season 2 they dont have the logo of Rare anymore.  This is because theyre not called Rare.  It is now the KI Internal team or more specific Microsoft Studios. Even in the Riptor stream announcement, those were Microsoft guys, not Iron Galaxy.

Develoepers

Season 1

Double Helix
Rare

Season 2 

Iron Galaxy
Internal KI Team 

Thank you Ryuu.  KI Internal team is not Double Helix

  1.  Feb 6

    How big is the internal team for Killer Instinct and did any Double Helix employees that worked on KI come over to MS or stay?

Int team's same size. KI was planned int before DH was brought in to dev. Other ext devs will do work but int team leads.

Show a trailer for Perfect Dark at E3 and MS would automatically win for me

lol So the developement specifically says Rare "developed"  it in season 1 FACT.  Phil Spencer confirms it was worked on internally before Double Helix FACT, and I KNOW they said about 10 rare people worked on it and you dont want to believe it?  Ok then.  And im not going back through the bajillion streams and interviews on this game to find the quote.  Them being credited for developement in season 1 is all you need to know FACT. And dont make excuses for why they were credited other wise. They WOULD NOT be credited for that if they didnt work on it in the first place. As Phil said, Internal team leads. 

I am done here. Believe what you want

Leave Banjo with Insomniac Games

Yep the Xbox One is now the new N64 confirmed. I'm loving it. N64 was one of my favorite consoles of all time. All I need is a Wii U and I get the full 64 feel. Perhaps they might find the help of outside devs to push the development along like Killer Instinct to ensure the quality.

Absolutely nothing false about what ive said. You just dont want to believe it and try and twist it into meaning something else.  Internal KI team worked on both S1 and S2.  He specifies this saying the "int team is same size" meaning nobody ever left and "int team leads" meaning they were always leading the project. "Ext" is Double Helix/Iron Galaxy. There isnt much you can misenterpret there.  And i really see nothing that id gain out of lieing about something like this either. Im possibly the biggest KI fan on VGC and have followed it since its announcement

Even official announcement will credit rare https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_-Q5Hu24zQ  This is not the case with season 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_rGfXw2x7k

He's kind of right, Rare is only really overseeing quality even though KI is coming along rather nicely. Iron Galaxy has already creatively changed some things about the gameplay despite the work laid out by Double Helix. They just hired MaximilianDood from Youtube to help them with the storyline as well. Don't you think Rare would know how to do the storyline themselves?
