Did a little research on Bravo's new job
343 Industries is looking for a dynamic individual with a passion for creating and perfecting online multiplayer experiences. The qualified candidate will be responsible for working with an existing design and sustain team to help maintain and support Halo's existing multiplayer experiences, as well as the future implementation of new experiences. Additional responsibilities include hopper management and synthesizing community feedback and player data to inform gameplay recommendations. As a member of the Sustainment Team, you will get to interface with community members, designers, Franchise Management and test teams, so legendary communication and organizational skills are a must.
Responsibilities:
- Work with the Sustainment Team to maintain multiplayer experiences by recommending optimizations based on community feedback and player data
- Work across several additional teams to ensure quality
- Provide regular formal and informal matchmaking updates to the community across multiple channels
- Maintain a healthy relationship with the community and its varied subsets
- Represent Halo and 343 at community and industry events[/quote]

Bravo has a Computer Science degree for those who think he's unqualified.

People who know who he is and know that he is gonna help. 2. People who just see "MLG guy hired to change game" and complain about stuff they know nothing about. /fact[/quote] You can't hire a player to help balance a game. It would be like hiring a hockey player to write the new rules of the sport. They're biased with their own playstyles. If the player likes playing physical, then they'll add in a little more leeway for what is allowed, and so on. I don't even have Halo 4 yet and I know that getting "professional" players involved with a game is not a good thing[/quote]Unless the player is actively trying to better the sport as a whole, not just their play style... besides... it can't get worse. Getting help from someone who knows the flow of the gameplay and weapon balance as opposed to just the programming part is helpful.[/quote] That's what I'm saying. What he sees as an improvement in balance in the game as a whole might not be seen that way for other casual or competitive players since they all have their own ideas for balance. Basically, there's no way to balance a game. People with always complain about it so might as well save money and not hire random people as consultants
