Multi-platform forums and Bungie.next
An example of a [b]really bad[/b] forum for a multi-platform game is the Bethesda forum. I pray that Bungie.next doesn't have a similar layout/structure because Bethesda forums are a hell to navigate and post in.
Firstly you have a sub-division for each franchise. Followed by a division into each game and topic on that franchise. Each game is then divided up into tech support, cheats, bug report etc. for [b]each console[/b].
As you'd expect this horrible layout kills any sort of big community feel because people that are regulars in diffrent sections don't interact despite their sections not being that different. (Just different console.)
At least in the "glory" days all the people talking about Halo stayed in the same forum. I'd hope not to see horrible divisions like over at Bethsoft.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] dazarobbo [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Make117 Just one forum for each game, like Bungie has done in the past.[/quote]Don't know about that. Even Achronos has expressed concerns with the difficulty of using the forums in the past.[/quote] There's difficulty in using these forums? I don't see it.
