I like the new waypoint, the forums are a little confusing though on mobile.
The old waypoint had all of my legacy game stats, but now H3, ODST and H4 are showing no data. How do I get that back and has anyone else had this issue?
I’m pretty sure a lot of posts that I never made and have never read are crediting me as the authour and my notification box is getting lit up with replies to posts that I’ve never seen. Am I crazy? Is this a known issue?
Right at the top of the Halo Waypoint homepage is a series of menus - click ‘COMMUNITY’, then click ‘FORUMS’
Yes, it’s a known issue
@LgndryDad nope, when I first launch the app I have only the news feed available. The community tab isn’t shown until I click the vnext article.

Ah - you didn’t mention you were using the app.
There are some posts in other threads on how to get them into the app (I don’t have the app so no idea if it works):
Search ‘form’ (user misspelt ‘forum’ in their heading. Also search ‘discourse app exists’.

I’ve just signed into this new waypoint and what a mess. Obviously I can’t find anything because it’s new. But this menu is not intuitive at all. I logged into Halo Waypoint and then when I did find the forums I had to log in again. What ?? ! Also whatever forum ranking I had is now gone. I dunno. Change for the sake of change is not always a good thing in my opinion. This new forum/webpage seems messy and cluttered. Reminds me of webpages from the 90’s in that respect. I came here to find a specific thing and I can’t find it. My interest in Halo is definitely fading with all these changes.

Where do we submit Waypoint specific tickets? Thanks.
I like it overall, but the lack of the content browser from Halo 5 and MCC is a deal breaker for me tbh
Definitely gives off old B-net vibes, I dig it.

Not particularly keen, but I’m sure I’ll get used to it. As others have said, it’s less mobile-friendly than the previous version – for now.
A little disappointed ranks are gone too. It was nice to see how interactive, and typically, for how long a fan has played an active part of discussion in the Halo community. There’ll be new badges though, apparently, so that may make uo for it. We’ll have to see.
I like it, its funny I haven’t seen too many forums that lets you see other peoples past edits but the design is fluid and well, its humiliating to people. Enough for more constructive conversations. If someone’s wrong and they correct themselves, they should have some humility here and the right rules are in place to enforce people trying to shame someone for it instead of adding value to the topic.

I do like the new waypoint, however, I would like to be able to change my background on my account or see different backgrounds depending on an event or holiday, like for the 20th anniversary for Halo, I would like to see Master Chief from MAC world 1999 or something.

Font style on the forums make it hard to read. Feels like the letters bleed into each other. Discord font is smaller, but much easier to read so it isn’t a size issue.
Otherwise I love the new Waypoint!

Love the Seeker tutorial. Anybody else completed it, yet?
So far I’m not a fan. The layout is confusing and I don’t quite like how messy the site looks. Maybe I’ll change my mind, but right now I miss the old Waypoint.

I like it. A lot more sleek. Only thing I don’t see is the forum ranks and Halo Gamerscore.
Can we get a Serif font? It would make reading faster. Right now the site uses a sans-serif font. For the texts inside of posts it’s not so bad but the forum titles could be a lot better. I think the font for those could be improved.
