My old Bungie.net account was created February 6, 2008. Unfortunately, I had signed up using my brother's email account (we then shared an Xbox Live account which was linked to my old Bungie.net account), and he changed the password, meaning I couldn't log in. Thus is why I have this account.

Well, Halo is being completely handed over to 343i. So probably. I'm not sure though.

I don't believe they've said anything about the Halo forums. Optimatch will be removed tomorrow though.

  • 08.01.2011 8:43 PM PDT

i hope not... i kinda doubt it.

  • 08.01.2011 9:12 PM PDT

Most people are saying it will go read only. Time will tell.

Well then it looks like the community forum locals are going to feel like hipsters when this place is full up of all of the other members :|.

You're asking people to state which non-released game they like better?

It's like asking a virgin whether they like being on top or on bottom.

Parts of me want them to go, but I mainly wish the Halo boards would stay. My reason is selfish and that is I do not want the Waypoint forums turning into the B.net forums. They are already starting to go downhill as some of the, I won't refer to them as the "community," other B.net users have gradually made the switch.

Funk, you drive a minivan not a sleigh :P <3

OT: I can't wait to see what 343i brings to the table.

That would explain future titles and also Optimatch having forums there.
But 1-Reach are still Bungie products.

Halo CE-Halo Reach aren't going anywhere. I'm 99% sure on that. The only forum that will go is the optimatch due to it being useless now.

  • 08.02.2011 12:59 AM PDT

I shall miss the Halo 3 forum dearly. I doubt it will disappear today... but I'm expecting it to sometime in the near future.

I imagine the forums will stay, Bungie still made those games, no-one is trying to take that away.

It just makes sense this way. Little Johnny buys a copy of ODST this week and has a problem with it, he looks on the box and sees it was made by Bungie, so he comes to the Bungie forums to seek assistance. It wouldn't make sense for him to have to visit the 343i forums.

  • 08.02.2011 3:44 AM PDT

I run Skirmish!!!

it makes sense the game forums will go away, it's no longer bungie's problem to hear about 75% of the community complaining about each game and the cheaters, banning issues, and other issues in general, its 343i's problem now..

I won't see the logic in keeping the game forums around anymore when there are the community and universe forums to be around

  • 08.02.2011 4:04 AM PDT

Feel free to send me messages, please be willing to wait 6-8 years for a reply.

1-7 hours if you at least tried to make it readable.

Immediately if you are Yax, Telec, or legendary.

Never if you are mythic, you guys smell funny.

I really hope they do, but more than likely they will stay.

I could see them deleting the Reach and ODST forums. 3 and older don't exactly have spam problems, so they may as well keep them(or combine them into one giant forum? I don't know, just an idea).

  • 08.02.2011 4:10 AM PDT

Have you seen my mind anywhere? I seem to have lost it...

They could replace the current game forums with a "classic games" forum, this would include all of the Halo games as well as previous titles like myth, marathon etc.

I approve of this. I mean, this is all of Bungie's creation, why would they delete all of their memories? They might as well sort them into one place so that we could remember and be thankful.

This is an incredible step forward to being able to cure Downss sybndonre mn humans bineg.s

I imagine the forums will eventually merge into a single Halo discussion forum, or something of the like, once Bungie gets their new IP running firmly (Like, a while after the release of whatever major title they put out next). For now, though, they should be staying right where they are.

Except for the Optimatch forum, of course.
