Looks like Ninja Theory about to get a massive influx of staff with the 25 less open positions they were recruiting for last time. They finished building the new studio yet?

Too early for E3 hype. |
He better clarify more at this weeks podcast.

But the biggest piece of evidence I have that Abandoned is not a Kojima joint is that Kojima is in talks with Microsoft about publishing his next game, according to a source familiar with the matter. And yes, that statue on Phil Spencer’s shelf was referencing a potential deal with the legendary developer. I cannot confirm if Xbox closed the deal yet, but my understanding is that Kojima is the focus of a Microsoft plan to leverage Japanese talent. |
Well I guess we know what Jez was talking about the last few days.

Personal i feel like they need to find a way to bring both together. Splitting your fan base is never a good thing. |
I agree. I haven’t consistently played Halo 5 since 2018 because they basically dropped the game and focused on bringing updates to the MCC an older Halo game. 343i left the Halo 5 community out to die.
Ryuu96 said: It's impossible to bring the Halo fanbase together, Lol. Halo Infinite having Sprint basically kills any chance of that already, Halo 5 isn't supported anymore cause Halo Infinite will take its fanbase, MCC will remain for the more old school fans who don't like the modern Halo and Tbh probably at this point won't ever like the modern Halo, that's fine, there's a market for everyone. |
The thing is 5 hasn’t been consistently supported since 2018 that’s 2 years before Infinite was expected to originally come out. I remember Gears 4 have support until Gears 5 came out. 343i simply chose to support MCC collection and abandoned Halo 5. No excuse to not support the current mainline game years before the new one it’s planned to launch.

Eh, The Coalition has a lot less on their plate than 343 does. And low-key, this is the same studio that seemingly can't even port Halo Wars 2 to Steam Publishing side was fully focused on fixing MCC and then content updates for that, main team was fully focused on moving over to Infinite and a updated engine, they probably simply don't have the resources to focus on MCC, Halo 5, Halo Infinite. And given Halo 5's launch, I don't want to take any chances, I don't want Halo Infinite to launch with missing content/lack of content at launch like Halo 5 did so if it has to die then so be it. |
I want Infinite to be great as much as the next guy but I prefer Halo 5 Multiplayer than anything on MCC besides maybe Reach but even sometimes that’s too slow for more liking.
For fans that like the faster multiplayer there’s been nothing new to play for years. Yeah it’s great they’re putting a lot of effort into a new game but we live in a era where if you release a game with MP you’re expected to support it until the next one comes out.
Ive literally not played anything Halo in like 2 years and that’s because 343i abandoned a large portion of the Halo fanbase.
Also MS should acquire Kohima Productions. The dude obviously loves to make risky creative games and gamepass is perfect for him so he doesn’t have worry about low player see due to a $60/$70 entry fee.
Remedy is still working on the single player campaign for Crossfire X which is supposed to launch this year on Xbox.
