I <3 you too Bungie

The problem is that a lot of what we love about the experience of bungie.net is stripped on mobile.

This; the site itself detects when you're on an iPhone/iPod and automatically brings you to the mobile page, but you have the option to browse the desktop version if you wish. I'm sure the app would just grab the forum data and then display it in the app rather than displaying a mobile version of the site.
Related picture is related.


During the period of information, the mobile site is quite useful. It is extremely easy to read updates when I am away on my phone. I do believe that was the main objective (assuming) of the version at the time. The app build on this fact. It included stats as well. The app does what most of the site can do so it is not really lacking in features but rather lacking in features you find interesting.

or they should just make the proper site not a nightmare to navigate. remember all the changes they'd have to make to this place (as in the full site) to make it more useable on a mobile device would also make it more useable on a fully fledged PC. so, would you rather have them split their effort to produce working apps that, let's face it, next to no one uses, or would you rather they just make this place as good as possible? We're all rocking smartphones with gigaflops and megabits on tap, we shouldn't have to use stripped back versions of websites.

The sound of iron shocks is stuck in my head, The thunder of the drums dictates
The rhythm of the falls, the number of dead's the rising of the horns, ahead
From the dawn of time to the end of days I will have to run, away
I want to feel the pain and the bitter taste of the blood on my lips, again

FORUM SUPPORT, please!

What else would they put on it?

That's the ting though; what else. There isn't much else to really put on it.

You guys need some inspiration.

-Forums, and the ability to view and post. From the app.
-RSS feed, presented in an intuitive manner
-View Private Groups and have full controls, including admin and news, etc etc.

That's just off the top of my head.

They Could take almost everything off besides seeing your friends and messages and then add the community forum to it so you can post easier on your mobile to see if it would work. It would be a test run to know if they could add more forums.

Forums are a must. Opening up safari on my Iphone to use forums is a huge pain because the site is well built for mobile.

Forum usage is what it really needs.

This does not make sense to me. How different would it be to open up your phone's browser and visit the forums then loading up the app and visiting the forums? It seems to be the same thing to me.

It needs a very simple way about the forums without having to visit the full site.

Theme Builder 4.1 is out for Bungie.net!

Theme Builders

I wish they would add mobile forum support.

  • 05.23.2012 5:58 PM PDT

<3

it could be spiced up, it takes so little effort with apples SDK it could use more lov, Bungie 4 starters, direct forum use, an insider tab where they could discuss whatever bungie does in their freetime, and mabey some more podcasts or some other media. well, there you are Bungie, step up to the plate and blow your audience away, u did with Halo...

Windows Phone app would be good. Get corgi onto it. He's obviously a whiz with xaml/c#.

To be quite honest, I have no problem using the forums on my phone, but I credit that to the phone mostly.

They have said that Bungie Mobile is an ongoing project.

I know that they are trying to work on forum support for the mobile app, but between the site update and new game, I'm not sure how much weight the app has in terms of priority.
