Another hot topic whore.


Oh... okay? I just wanted to know the opinion of the community. If you're going to be a dick about it then you don't have to be here...

Wake me, when you need me.

None that I know of. Bungie is the only developers website that I actually visit often and contribute to.

The only Community that I think comes close to Bungie.net would be the Bethesda Softworks Forums.

Their Community has a much more... argumentative atmosphere (arguments between which is better, PC or Console for example), but they are just as rabid and interconnected as the B.net Community.

The reason that I like B.net more, is that the Devs themselves are more active and slightly more appreciative towards the Community here than on the BethSoft Forums.

But I do think that BethSoft's Forums are great as well, and IMHO, they are the closest that comes to B.net (though they still fall slightly short).

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

The Borderlands forum was a nice community for the few months I spent there.

I was just wondering, can anyone think of any other game developer (barring MAYBE 343i but I can't even begin to think how wrong that argument would be) that has a community that is as interconnected and active or has employees and moderators as involved in the community as Bungie has?

I was thinking and, despite the bad reputation that some of the forums on here can get *cough* Reach Forums and Flood *cough*, it really is an extremely interconnected and tight knit community that is, for the majority of its members, very welcoming to new members and equally as familiar with old ones.

Just a thought I had. I'm not a part of a forum for any other gaming developer so I just honestly didn't know if there was a developer that exceeded the standard set by Bungie in either respect mentioned above.

And, as always, please discuss kindly.

:P

Well it all depends on who you talk to, really.

Some may argue that the Epic Forums are among the best, or that the Battle.net is the best.

Personally? I think it was Bungie that started the trend of really connecting with your fanbase, with the Myth series. Talking directly to the customers through mailing lists and genuinely being interested in their feedback. It's a trend that they set early on with the internet and kept it going very strongly. It's inspiring, and it's evidently successful. Bungie.net is the prime example of a company that lives and breathes on its fans, and it's something that should never be forgotten; especially when ignorant and upset gamers claim that Bungie never listens (always a forum-favourite).

Bungie.net, whether or not you think it still is good now, did it first, but more importantly, they did it right first.

I get the feeling that the people who work at Bungie are doing what they love and doing so as a team. I don't get that feeling from many other game devs.

Of all the communities I've been a part of, Bungie.net is the one that I keep coming back to.

Twitter | Nothing

Other developer websites have communities which are similar to this. Some have more interaction with employees, some less. Some have a closer knit group of members and some have a collection of jerks.
