B.net after the launch of Destiny
What do you think B.net will be like after the launch of Destiny; or perhaps the days leading up to Destiny's launch? How much do you think the site and community will change?

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Unisaur 64 There will be only joy. [/quote] Boy you've got high hopes.
-
I the site is going to be a lot different than it is now and the community will be a little different as well because of the new members Destiny will most likely attract.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] TH3_AV3NG3R ..and we aren't going to be called Bungie.net we are going to be called bungie.next, unless that is suppose to be a separate website.[/quote]What? Bungie.next is a clever name for the next iteration of Bungie.net. It will still be Bungie.net.
-
new people, people posting in the wrong forum more often, more carpet bans. I can't wait :D
-
I have no idea but it is going to be awesome :D

Random people saying how much it sucks compared to the other games they made, new people from different consoles, console fanboy, and we aren't going to be called Bungie.net we are going to be called bungie.next, unless that is suppose to be a separate website.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Lobster Fish 2 A lot more active, it'll never be the same as it was in these dark times.[/quote]Activity brings life and curiosity to the site, I'm exited for Bungie.net's new era.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] UphillMercury Forum activity is going to skyrocket. In the days preceding and proceeding Destiny, there will be a massive influx of new users. The Universe forum will be filled with new discussion topics, and will once again become a hub of activity. I think the community will have an extremely positive atmosphere when Destiny is launched.[/quote]That sounds good.
-
Why do I get the feeling that this "surge" of new members will be anti-climatic?

I have yet to really be a part of a community that's waiting in eager excitement for a new IP. I've been here/there for Halos, but Halo is different. It has this fan base that can never be satisfied, please someone, there will always be someone upset because you're messing with their Halo. With Destiny, you can't mess with someone's "Destiny" because it's not theirs yet. I'm not sure if it will all be cherries and rainbows leading up to the launch or if it will be like the Halos, where there's always someone upset with some news they hear about Destiny. Wouldn't surprise me. Since the majority of Bungie fans are fans because of Halo, and therefore they are Halo fans. Naturally they will probably desire something like Halo, and be upset if there is something in Destiny that they wouldn't like in Halo. So you'll probably get a majority that is happy, a vocal group of people who downright hate Destiny because it's not Halo, and some people who will discuss game mechanics in a proper manner, maybe with skepticism, but not outright hate. 'Tis a tricky thing this community is.

it will be interesting alright. i do hope bungie.net keeps some reminder of halo after all it is their lovechild with microsoft funds but i look forward to destiny

Spoilers will be happening.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] SharkTooth__ [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] DE4THINC4RN4TE First they will be happy, and later angry. And then the bans will come... After that, people will pointlessly pick sides on a fight that doesn't even matter. I have foreseen it.[/quote] You should pre-report it![/quote] This is what we need in bungie.next, a Pre-report button.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Xd00999 There will be a surge in activity and new members. Then, there will be complaints that Destiny does not live up to expectations. Expect posts along the lines of 'Destiny sucks, Halo [whatever] was better!' Activity will drop, and we will see some new regular members. [/quote] I really hope Destiny is better than Halo, since 343i took over Halo with Halo 4 it has not gotten better at all.

I don't think the new generation will start swinging around until a few months after release. I'm part of the Halo generation and that's sort of what happened with me. It'll be a gradual thing. This, of course, is a semi-educated guess. Take it with a grain of salt.
