I downloaded 1.6 but when I try to connect to multiplayer, the game still tries to connect me to bungie.net - Does anyone know what I am missing?

There should be a button in that screen called Servers.
Press it and choose between Mariusnet or Playmyth. I guess you dont have a Playmyth account, so choose Mariusnet, because Playmyth isnt accepting registrations.
You can create a new Mariusnet account or log as a guest.
To do it, put "guest" as your username and anything for password.

Watch the playmyth.net website; when it comes back you can register. Most people play M2 on that server.
