Bungie has not offically announced there project but when they do I am sure a new forum will pop up to ride the spam of tthe other forums. But if it isn't halo 3 (which would suprise me) I think its going to be pretty funny when all the people that ordered advanced copies of Halo 3 from all the sites that are already selling it request there money back.

But wasn't the Halo movie thread stickied before it was finalised? Back in the early days of the thread... before it gor locked about once a week...

The Halo movie thread wasn't stickied until Sketch posted the "Great Hollywood Journey" update... which really made it official.

I'll be on my own side.

To sum it all up, let's just say that there will be no Halo 3 sticky until the game is announced, IF it's announced.

Actually, I made and stickied that thread about a year ago. However, that was an entirely different situation - it was more a question of "Should there be a Halo movie?"; most of the Halo 3 speculation assumes that Bungie is making a third Halo game, and goes from there. Before the Halo movie thread was made, the problem was with people making threads saying "I WANT A HALO MOVIE!!!" The Halo 3 threads are more along the lines of "In Halo 3, should we be able to use the pelican in multiplayer?"

I don't mind it too much. It's not really spam. Sure, if there are two topics about having a pelican in multiplayer on the front page, I'll delete the newer one, but if one's about the pelican and another one's speculating about characters in Halo 3, there's no problem. The Underground is not an old-school forum. This is the crucial point that too many people miss. It is for discussion of all Bungie-related topics that don't fit in the other forums. Speculation about future games must go in the Underground, otherwise it will be spam.

Stickying a "Speculate about Bungie's next game" thread just isn't right. People aren't going to want to post in a huge 2000-page catchall thread. The scope of the topic is far too broad; heck, with something as simple as the Halo movie thread, there were problems with people trying to steer the direction of the discussion the way they wanted it to go, stifling other ideas. If someone sees this "Next game" thread, and reads a bit of it, to find that in fact the people in the thread are really only talking about whether or not Bungie will use that cool new physics engine someone just made, but they want to talk about weapons or something, they'll just make another thread anyway. And they'd be right to.

It's just not a good idea. Too many problems. Don't worry, if it's bothering you it'll slow down one day.

I think the next forum will coincide with the next project, which I doubt is Halo 3.


Here's hoping!

  • 09.15.2005 5:54 AM PDT

I'll be on my own side.

You're hoping that Halo 3 isn't coming? What exactly do you want?

I would commit seppuku if Bungie actually made that game.

The Underground is serving her purpose. Let it stay that way.


But now she's getting raped! Any thread about anything else then Halo3 will be lost there within the hour it's started.

*cringe* I will never buy that game if it is ever made. I hope to high heaven that it isn't.

I would for sure. It sounds like one mighty fine game.

Yo ho
Yo ho
A pirate's life for me.

Either way, I support Bungie, so I'd buy their next game no matter what it is. It would be nice to have a forum for future speculation though. Maybe clean The Underground up a bit.

I would buy P@S in a heart beat!

Just sit right there and you'll hear a tale,
A tale of pimping tri-ip! (ARRH)
That started from the seaside hood,
Aboard this pimping shi-ip! (ARRH)
Aboard this pimping shi-ip!

I looked right down and I saw a fin,
A fin of mermaid sea -blam!-! (ARRH)
She hopped right upon my boat,
And starting giving her sales pitch! (ARRH)
And starting giving her sales pitch!

Its been a good fortnight or two,
I hope my whores don't flee! (ARRH)
This tale of mine continues,
Past lands and seas unknown to me-ee! (ARRH)
Past lands and seas unknown to me-ee!


*Cough*
Were seven drunken pirates,
Were seven deadly sins.

Why does everyone continue to insist that Shishka is irrationally harsh with blacklists? I have never seen proof of this. Ever.

I think it all started when he banned those people in the first ever quote fest-ness. Personally i think Maka and Shishka are the best moderators, even if Maka doesn't post anymore...the prick. ::)

Most likely if you were banned by Shishka, then maybe...kinda.

With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.

Perhaps... But Bungie's next game is Pimps at Sea, anyway... so what good would a Halo 3 forum do?

I'd buy that game three times over. Pimps as pirates...

Well, I'd really like the part about them being pirates.

Pimps at Sea is the worst idea I have ever heard, mainly because pimps annoy the hell out of me. Now, if Phoenix was their next game, I would be disappointed, but I would still buy it.

Speculation is what speculation dose, and I get this feeling this topic is falling off topic. But anywho, I take all rumours and guesses with a grain of salt, and I never trust the word of Microsoft (remembering they are a corporation too seeking a profit - which is pointless since they have so much $$) till I see hard evidence.

On a personal note: I'm laying low until I hear anything, so I do as the smart do and leave people alone to do their work.

Think of it this way, what would you do if say your little brother walked into your room demanding that you give him use of your computer and you haven't finished your homework yet. You keep telling him when your done he can. But then he nags and nags and eventually you snap. Its just an example but you get what I mean, I think that's about one of the many reasons why I don’t think we should bother Bungie on the matter.

Well heres some. A guy named BLACKJACKgreen had something in his sig that made fun of Green Day. Apparently, Shishka really likes Green Day, so this offended him. He gave him a 7 day ban for "political commentary." Blackjack changed his sig after that.

guys! stop having hissy fits!!! halo3 discusion is mostly annoying repeats anyway. I have been away for awile but now I come back and instead of posts to bring back the old pistol their are constant barrages of 'make a br, ar hybrid". all the good stuff is usually looked at and forgotten so the addition of a new place would just pretty much look like this
"name of level" then definition...
stickyed posts about various things to talk about.
mods rules
a lot of posts about halo.
Why do we need it, we already have it?

I realise that it's probably already in planning and/or on the list of things to do... but the poor Underground never gets a break these days...

Yup, Achronos Said something along these lines: Once we announce our new game. We will redo the forums and make a new one just for that game.


Does that mean death of groups? No!!!! (I'm was gunna make one soon)

  • 09.17.2005 5:08 PM PDT

Groups aren't going away.
