I wasn't here (here as a member on these Forums and on this website) before Halo 2 comes out, and if I was I would probably be able to speak from experience, and answer this question myself, but (and here is where I'm going to point out the painfully obvious, for the sake of justifying the creation of this thread) I've noticed that in the games tab of the navigation bar, Halo 2 is listed; it wasn't always there. When Halo 3 (I mean "your next project that ryhmes with 'Jaylo Tree' ") comes out, is Bungie simply going to add Halo 3 to the games tab, even though space appears to be lacking, or are they going to do either a minor or major redesign of bungie.net? I'm expecting a redesign myself, simply because they are probably going to add Jaylo Tree forums so people can complain about the lack of the Halo:CE pistol and demand that the helecopter be put into matchmaking.

I pose this question both to the pre-Halo 2 members of these forums and to anyone else who works for Bungie who is "at liberty to disclose" anything related to Halo 3...oops, sorry, I meant "your next project".

I doubt it.

The site you see now was the product of a need to upgrade the site in anticipation of a deluge of new members.

*whines*

Dude, come on, keep poking Achronos until he updates the site.
I'm not trashing Bungie or Bungie.net, or Achronos (<<<Disclaimer) but this site
* is extremely slow in Firefox (try scrolling up and down a forum)
* 's stats are unreliable, at any given point I apparently haven't played any games in half of the matchmaking playlists

You know, when I started to make that list I figured that I would have 5+ items, but come to think of it this site is pretty cool. Just wanted to point that out.

I also think that it's really cool how fast I got a reply...

Well, there will probably be new forums, but I doubt it would go much further than that. We got new forums like Optimatch and Zanzibar about a week before Halo 2 came out.

And you're sure that poking Achronos won't work? He seems like a very pokeable type of person.

On a serious note, thanks for the info, I'm just curious what an upgraded Bungie.net might look like....

Maybe. But you would have to poke Achronos and the Webmaster. I've heard people that have lost their fingers doing just that. His pleasant disposition extends beyond answering emails, I've heard.

They may ugrade the stats thing, since it's probly going to be altered for Halo 3. Also, I'm sure that there will be at least three new forums added (one for Halo 3, one for Halo 3 mp, one for Halo 3 XBL).

The design for the site as it is now has only been around for a year and 4 months. Before that it was the same for a whopping 2 years and 5 months. I'm doubting any major design changes in the near future. But I do like the sound of a search feature.
