Subject: Should Bnet get a Halo 4 forum?

"Now, we must all fear evil men. But there is another kind of evil which we must fear most, and that is the indifference of good men."

Get at me

Before you start yelling at me about how Bungie doesn't have anything to do with Halo anymore, just think about it. Almost everyone on this site has played Halo in the past, and the vast majority of us will be getting Halo 4. I can already see how the Flood is going to get completely overrun by Halo 4 threads. It will actually make the Flood pretty terrible to try and navigate.

Things would be so much simpler and go smoother if we had a Halo 4 forum. I know it's extremely unlikely, but maybe if enough people agree we can make something happen. Or I'll just get yelled at and this thread will disappear. IDK, I'm going to grill some steak. Real steak not Halo steak.

I think the Flood is good enough, or the Universe, if you like.

I find that Teh-Ziod is NOT attractive for the reasons
she/he does not correct format sentences, therefore for intelligent matured members of society that may interact with her/him, may find her/him UNattractive for the reason that she/he does not comprehend with their level to successfully have a conversation therefore it will be socially an awkward interaction which may be wanted to be avoided

second i do not find it physically possible for a PERSON to be a ice cream truck.

They should just merge all the Halo forums into one general discussion forum and allow Halo 4 to be talked about there as well.

And? That's on topic for the Flood forum. It means it's a popular topic. That's no reason to make a forum that shouldn't be there.

Bungie no longer has anything to do with Halo, there's no point, bein an off-topic topic the Flood is satisfactory.

Yeah flood seems a good place for it, better than most of the threads there anyway.

Universe is for Bungie games only I believe. Halo 4 isn't a Bungie game. If I'm wrong they should just make a Halo forum anyway to cut down on all the spam in the Flood forum.

I'm gonna finish it. Just like Jigga did to the pyramid.

I was thinking the exact same thing earlier today. The waypoint forums are total anarchy compared to B.net . And it would be useful for a designated area for halo 4 talk.

I think it'd be a good idea to merge all the different halo forums into one. But I can also understand why the webteam wouldn't want to do that.

No reason.

There already is an official Halo 4 forum over at 343 Industries website. Achronos has commented on this before (quote below). Bungie is going into a new universe, the flood forum has always discussed other AAA franchises, I don't see anything changing soon.

While it is likely there will remain a place to talk Halo on bungie.net for some time to come, expect it to eventually take the form of a buried sub-forum where we move all Halo talk (yes, even the stuff in the Universe forum) as bungie.net becomes more about what we're working on now.

In short, don't expect to see a "Halo 4 forum" on here - just as you never saw a "Halo Wars forum".

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

No. It's not Bungie's game.

Well that cleared it up. :P

Horrible idea Justin.

A forum concerning Halo 4 should be governed by those who can answer future questions regarding the game (343). Just my two cents.

This is a good idea. Since this site is moving away from Halo, and all of the Halo discussion will be unofficial (i.e. Bungie can't give official answers) it would make sense to let people discuss all things Halo there.

  • 06.28.2012 4:36 PM PDT

No, just use the universe or a private fourm. Or the Flood, but you'd just recieve extensive hate from there.

This

Also, Halo 4 isn't a Bungie game, so it doesn't really belong here in an official forum.

My DeviantArt Gallery - For my Photoshop stuff, go have a look!

As much Halo 4 talk as there is, I don't think a forum for it would be suitable.

However, splitting The Flood into (non-Bungie) Game Discussion and Off-Topic discussions could be a viable solution.

Somebody made a Halo 4 group. I'm guessing it was a result of this thread. I just joined it.

No, it's not their game. The flood/private groups/Universe forum is sufficient in my own opinion.

  • 06.28.2012 5:40 PM PDT

Key

No... All the forums on here are directly related to Bungie-made or Bungie-produced games. Halo 4 is neither.

Questions lead to learning, learning leads to kowledge, knowledge leads to understanding, understanding leads to peace.



"I would kill to get a killionaire... 10 times... digitally."

I would if I were BUNGIE. A huge number of fans on this site are fans of the game, and whether or not BUNGIE likes it, Halo will always still be theirs. A place to discuss the new Halo games just makes sense.

  • 06.28.2012 7:32 PM PDT

To infinity, and beyond!

Personally, I don't think so. People should just continue to use The Flood to talk about Halo 4.

From what I've read, I think Achronos is going to purge all of the Halo forums and create a singular Halo forum. This is where users are expected to go if they want to talk about the Halo universe. Whereas the Universe forum will be reserved to talk about Bungie's past video games (i.e. Marathon, Oni...etc). The Flood will remain the off-topic forum.
