Bungie.NEXT : Switch 101

If you were a user on the [url=http://halo.bungie.net]previous version of Bungie.net[/url] and would like to adapt your old working habits, you've come to the right place. This guide will explain what has been added, changed, and removed from the site. It is currently a work in progress so please feel free to correct any inaccurate information and provide feedback on how this guide can be improved. I do apologize in advance if your eyes bleed from the walls of text. When the beta is over, I will incorporate images and video so this guide is easier to follow. Note: This is only 1 of 2 support guides. The [b]Bungie.NEXT Support 101[/b] guide has not been posted yet. The second guide will be geared toward users that are completely new to Bungie.net and did not use the old site (second guide will include website and Bungie game related FAQ as well as information on how to create an account, link/un-link authentication services, post on the forums, ect.). If you're interested in helping, feel free to send me a private message.

    [b]ADDED:[/b] [quote]Recent Activity is a new feature that displays links to topics you have created and topics you have replied to. Recent Likes is a new feature that displays links to topics you like as well as images, videos, and links you like. You have the option to hide your Recent Activity and Recent Likes from public view by visiting the Privacy section of your settings page. Your name has been separated into Display Name and Unique ID. Your display name may be changed at any time. Your Unique ID may be changed once every 7 days. When you change your name, your previous name is displayed as an Alias on your profile page. At this time, there is no way to remove aliases. Notifications have been added for Forum Replies, Forum Topics Liked, Group Acceptance, Group Join Requests, New Followers, New Messages, and Profile Settings Change. You can access your notifications by select the "Exclamation" icon on the navigation bar. You may enable/disable any of these notifications for your email, mobile device, and web (when viewing Bungie.net). Following users, groups, and tags has been added. The users that follow you, the groups you follow, and the tags you follow are displayed on your profile. You may follow 100 users and 100 groups. If you are a member of a group, you are also follower of that group. Please see the Forum section and Group section for more information. [/quote] [b]CHANGED:[/b] [quote]You can log on to Bungie.net with four online services now. In addition to the Microsoft account that Bungie has been supporting for years, Facebook, Google, and the Playstation Network have now been added. If you want to stop using your Microsoft account to access this site, visit your settings page and choose a different path. Once you have one login linked to your account, you can remove the ones you don’t want to keep. Profile backgrounds (themes) have been re-sized from 903x260 to 960x165. The preview for themes can now be selected with a drop-down, but it appears as a smaller version and not actually on your profile. Signatures have been changed to Mottos. The maximum character count has changed from 500 to 256 (legacy members had the signatures transferred over, even if character count was exceeded). Mottos may be cut off. All settings can now be accessed from one page. Blocked Users were not transferred over. The old site prevented a blocked user from sending you a private message. The improved feature, Muted Users, prevents them from have conversations with you and also hides their posts. [/quote] [b]REMOVED:[/b] [quote]Some avatars have been removed. Bungie Mobile is not available at this time, but will be available in the future. Saved Threads have been removed. Titles have been removed from profiles. In time, Bungie will be celebrating and decorating the long-standing members of the community. Your legacy will be honored. For now, you are anonymous crash test dummies; so rev those engines and aim for the wall. Last Forum Post (post history) and Last Active date have been removed from profiles, however, you may view Recent Activity if the user has their privacy set to public. The fields Real name, City, State, Postal Code, Country, Homepage URL, and Auto Responder (Auto/Manual) have been removed from profiles. Halo Game Settings (Namplates, Halo: Reach API, [url=http://halo.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=71225779]Sneakernet Avatars[/url]) have been removed.
