Incoming: Bungie.net Forum Post Requirements Are Being Changed

Hello all,
Starting tomorrow, 2/07, some Bungie.net forums will be updated with new post requirements. These changes are planned between 10 AM and 12 PM PST.
• Destiny2, Feedback, Gaming, and OffTopic: Players must have reached the Farm in Destiny 2
• Destiny, Clans, Recruitment, Community: Must have a Destiny account
• Help: No game requirements necessary

People are NOT happy over there.

Likely the issue is people were banned and creating alt accounts to continue complaining.

Nineball21122270d ago

Oh, I'm sure that's going on. Bungie is trying to limit the trolls posting on their forums.

Unfortunately, it's also will affect others who use the Off Topic and Gaming forums that don't troll and who haven't bought D2. Not sure what the best solutions if for them, but best of luck to them.

So bungie decides to nerf the offtopic section to their forum, forcing non destiny players to buy the game or leave for good. When did offtopic for all things bungie become such a priority to lock it behind D2?

And yet people still want to make excuses for them...

Why would non destiny players be there to begin with? It isn't their community lol

Nineball21122270d ago

To be fair, it's Bungie.net not Destiny.net.

It's for all of Bungie products. And yes, Destiny is really the only product currently I suppose.

This will affect old Halo fans who still use Bungie.net and who haven't purchased D2.

@Nineball2112: Halo is now owned and maintained by 343i, there is a great community there for all Halo games.

InTheZoneAC2269d ago

apparently you can't read or comprehend several points.

bungie.net
off-topic

Why should one have to own destiny to be a part of that community?

AZRoboto2270d ago

Feedback's restriction is the only one that makes sense. But Bungie/D1 fans who didn't get D2 can't talk about the game in general? They won't be allowed to talk about general gaming or even off-topic?

Bungie needs to worry about making the game better, not making forums worse... especially those forums that have nothing to do with Destiny 2.

Chaosdreams2270d ago

Talk about a fall from the heavens.

Blank2270d ago

Holy hell they are going full retard to their fans. One never goes full retard. In all seriousness this is a bad way to react to the backlash.

"the capital group of PCF Group S.A."

If you're getting funding from a group that needs two different ways of Acronyming itself, things will not go the way you want them to.

If it was more online-only crap then good riddance.

jjb19816h ago

Outriders was crap. They slapped that game together and threw in a loot system to get players' attention. This game was absolutely jank and the always online nonsense made it stutter like crazy. People Can't Optimize.

I liked Outriders but I could see where the artistic vision was compromised. The way the industry is now, it wouldn't surprise me that upper management would scrap something that didn't pull in money via gaas, mts, or other means.
