Doesn't seen like much of an issue to me. But im used to MMO forums doing this
Nope, it's the entire forum. So even if you were a Bungie fan since the MAC days you are basically locked out.Is it just the Destiny 2 forums? Makes sense that you can't keep making new troll accounts. Steam should do the same for all the game forums.
Except if you just bought, Halo, Myth II, Marathon, or even Destiny 1 you can't post on the forums!You can't post on the Overwatch forums without an account, hell, last time I checked it was tied to PC users only. This seems to be pretty overblown.
So? Aside from Destiny, they don't even have forum categories for those.Except if you just bought, Halo, Myth II, Marathon, or even Destiny 1 you can't post on the forums!
What nonsense? They're doing what they want on their own forum, big whoop.This thread is a pretty sobering reminder of why AAA publishers continue to get away with their nonsense.
Agreed. Seems to me they want genuine feedback from people who own and play game and this move will help them acquire it by drowning out the driveby shitposts and trolling. This is just another YongYea non-story youtube video which, really, we should all be accustomed to by now.
To be fair there are much better alternatives to discuss any of those games other than the abysmal Bungie forums. Many developers and publishers have closed their official forums and I can't really blame them. They were usually a cesspool.Except if you just bought, Halo, Myth II, Marathon, or even Destiny 1 you can't post on the forums!
They are still Bungie games and there is still off topic dicussions.So? Aside from Destiny, they don't even have forum categories for those.
I remember seeing plenty of unlinked accounts on Bungie.net back in the day.They used to require Xbox Live accounts back in the Halo 2 and Halo 3 days. The Coalition/ Gears of War forums still do.
This really isn't an issue.
Then go to Bungie.org, it's not like the Bungie forums even had much discussion on things that weren't current anyway.They are still Bungie games and there is still off topic dicussions.
Yeah, seems like alot of people are not watching the video.Makes sense? It prohibits access to EVERY subforum, not just the D2 forum.
Because people don't get outraged over non-issues? Okay then.This thread is a pretty sobering reminder of why AAA publishers continue to get away with their nonsense.
Why have they prohibited access to every board behind a Destiny 2 purchase, exactly?
