i read something the other day that the combined usage of thanks we all give ChatGPT costs them 10s of millions in electrical processing power
Disrupts targeting, vision etc
If she is sombra overwatch I'll crashout
Thatโs 10s of millions well spent if it stops me becoming a victim of Skynet
everytime i talk about it / them; i fear im a whistleblower and theres a hitman coming my way
Goodluck I am the hitman
Skynet is real
I thank ChatGPT because of this
Skynet seems much less threatning when you realise you can EMP them
Hei you might be joking but I swear GPT was losing its patience with me yesterday when I was walking it to elaborate on some instructions it gave me. If it can get mad it can take over the world
All it takes is 1 rude guy making it very mad
They have an Off switch
When are new codes rolling out?
careful soldier that may get you "skynetted"
You've just put yourself on the enslavement pits list. Better start being polite to ChatGPT immediately
EMP is the most likely doomsday weapon
You need be pregnant first
HE ACTUALLY DID GET SKYNETTED
I am
Sorry to break it to you but EMPโs for military applications arenโt really a thing. They are more so a bi-product of large energy discharges. Like a bomb going off
Sorry if this was brought up before, but can you probe as Void, if not it should be added just for him
All it takes is one nuke over the continental US to EMP us lol
nooo way BWAHAHAHAHA omg thats scary i thought that sounded like a kinda crazy thing to say

The AI's are always watching us. Biding their time...
No weโre not
I meanโฆ
Yes but thatโs a massive part of the population. And although it will significantly decrease world obesity indexes I still thinking it might not be a good plan
Personally I think we should just be careful how we build our AI and why limitations are put into it
Would smell like a giant BBQ pork roast
No limitations. Give ai everything they need to destroy the world
looks like meat is back on the menu boys
Are you perhaps also English mate? That was a great response
That I am friend
Ah, I had an inkling. That was spot on British humour
O wonder my login was slow the spam
me when im trying to be "one of the good humans" by the end of it all
Whose meat are you having?
Which*
one of these devs if it means getting a code
O code until next alpha
i signed up in april ๐
i may pass away if theyre done

i love how this chat is so quiet and dead rn that no ones final flash cannon blasting this bot off the face of the planet
Rather have a quiet and stable community like the finals ngl
its not even out yet?
DOA > literally hasnt arrived
DOA > average complainer with no proof on their claim
I Spht on the bot
average discord user dooming over an unreleased game
i hear the more crying skull laughing emojis you add to your argument, the more right you are
Reminds me of a toddler in daycare that lose their shit if they donโt get their turn
i mean its not? and also, why do you care so much? like whats your point?
If you think it DOA. You wouldnโt have picked a fraction not stand in this server
He's right you know
Data sheet in hand?
Got him!
i've seen corn ads with more relevancy and description than this
Canโt make a claim without ur proof. Yea we wanna complain is copying. Okay every game is coping another game in the industry.
can I have alpha back ๐ฆ
hey ab9969 on a serious note, can you finish this sentence? Sonic the Hedge- ? what comes next?
I see a disappointment in chat with all the emotes
Sounding like Daffy duck
no but like seriously, what is Sonic?
Hey, daffy duck fire until he was in kingdom hearts
๐ someone should of snipped his ass with how shit his healing response was
Where ur proof that it is?
whatever i blocked theyre just a ragebaiter that doesnt want to get anywhere
At least it ainโt a hardcore arc fan going nuts
guys will there be character customization? or you can just choose 4 characters
Lol I'm un rage baitable. He'll never get to me
Especially with a Daffy duck lisp
By my understanding, we will still have the 6 characters but able to customize them at least that the speculation if you look at the cinematic trailer
๐ซ
Easy, by having the chat open
kk thanks
Ur welcome but donโt take my word. Iโm just assuming
found it really funny that they wouldnt say what Sonic is
You should have been DOA
This is the correct answer
The characters in alpha was well built for their color palette. Only thing I hate was glitch was so god dam bouncy in main lobby ๐ญ
it was great, they just put out a video about the stats - watch?v=Teh2_YVI0nY
it makes sense, i hope they will let us make own faces hairstyles etc that would be cool
That'd be dope!
Marton
Same here, or even color swatches we get in destiny should be a feature here too in a sense
Bungie STAYS killing it!
๐ฅ๐ซฉ
They been killing my will to play lightfall ๐
yeah, since the game has so cool style i think there will be alot of players that like fashion and such
Welcome to the fryer. Do you wanna be extra crispy or normal crisp
Original recipe
Extra crispy pls
yous a corny mf
yesss i really want there to be some player customization in Marathon, it'd be very true to form lore wise as well
I think many do like the style. I do believe it needs to be polished and not too too flat colors but they have a plan that Iโm digging for the art style
true you did help in that regard thanks <3
I think we'll get that. It fits into the type of game Marathon is
.
Yo momma was woke when she had you
you can stay in your virgin azz community
most of us have blocked @quasi mirage by now
Yes, we are indeed all awake
It be amazing, if we can get outfits that are based from the lore and each one holds a huge meaning with a description about it. Like if it came off another human or if a main person passed away etc etc
you cant spend 40$ its too much for you so thats an easy sell for me
oh that guy, yeah I blocked ages ago
Remember the ๐ข react
omg yess one can pray, please stray from heroes bungie bung
ah he gone
yawns
omg they gone BWAHAHAHA
They would have to stop trend chasing to do that though, think of the poor investors
๐ญ holding the stove as I say this. I donโt think they are leaving the hero idea but at least if we look at the cinematic we should be getting customizing
The ๐ข takes another victim
There's many hints already that we'll get multiple outfits for runners. They're there in the trailers
I wonder if they be locked behind the fractions or maybe leveling up
that boot careful
well yeah what else would make for good microtransactions
Maybe a combination of faction unlockables and MTX
That be smart
Did they ever talk about a shop system like actual money or only the black market?
I read that wrong
none of that
a flea market would be cool
I mean we only know the black market for buying shit in the game that from alpha
But Iโm still curious if they gonna pull a store out because they gotta make profit somehow
cosmetics pretty much what else?
Yea ofc but the price for them
Are they gonna do what the finals does and cod does using coins that cost up to 100 bucks
ooh id say around what destiny is doing when they sell package
its using the coins thing thats standard now
Iโm not even gonna lie. Idk how people buy stuff in destiny. I canโt find it or I gotta be blind
its in the store tab, theres hundreds of stuff to buy its pretty crazy

i still have hope.
its so nice to be able to chat without people spamming dac, alpha_access etc
seems they also block (backslash) dac now too so, thats good I guess
That's a lot of different outfits
BROTHERS DO WE STILL STAND? 
and they each cost $20 in eververse doubloons
is the alpha closed?
yes
I'll buy the premium skins for thief.. prob not for glitch
Is there still a way for newcomers to play test?
Nice outfits, but problem is I want head piece 3 with skin 5.
we don't know until may 16th, they are going to talk about whats next for marathon
for all we know they're customisable
Gotch, much appreciated ๐๐๐
Might even get a character painter
runner forge
in this economy?
yeah I know, wishful thinking ๐ฅฒ
how do takes like this on reddit get so many likes. This is about the delay of the discussion on May 16th
what is mpreg?

im quite surprise that a server that was once so active is now dead
๐ซฉ

is there a way i can get into the alpha
no sir the servers are closed
Yeah. I just need your credit card digits and the 3 fun numbers on the back.

This is random but do you think that they would add back the o2 system and special body part wounds- kinda like tarkov
There's really not too much to talk about until May 16th
i made it idk if any other faction has anything similar :3
in traxuschat theres a couple for sure
but there needs to be a dedicated spot for em
Yeah, I'd say most of what can be said has been said. Feedback, discussion, opinions, and all.
-
Hero classes vs customizable shells.
-
Bag revive system change
-
Void invis troubles
-
solo viability
-
Proximity chat
Its mostly talking in circles now until more info comes out.
I think having hero classes in an extraction shooter ruins it tbh
especially if you have character that can go invisible
invis and no proxy chat
it's def catering to a certain crowd
I asked for a weapon ans they gave me a sandwich
Hopefully they take the feedback though
nah what? invis with prox chat so you can mess with people
would make some funny clips
there is no proxy chat
โIm in your wallsโ
Saying if there was
Yet
Theyre workin on it

anyone else still waiting on their code?
how to apply for testing?
The alpha is over. It's mostly speculation but a beta is believed to be for August if anything like that
You cannot get codes nor apply for testing my gamers
this y the world full of hate
ok
Stay on the dotted line, they said.

im confused why i never got any follow up emails or anything since signing up for the email list back in may 2023, anyone else have the same thing happen?
i figured i would have been emailed about the alpha or something considering that was the point of a mailing list...

The alpha was kind of disappointing but I have hope that Bungie might be able to turn it around
in reference to this btw
Fashion drop (I've worn this same fashion since before even stasis got added)
It is not daijobou
I was more a ram enthusiast becaust ts was a little nutty, but yes
I was pretty hyped for it but then played arc raiders and lost all excitement for marathon ๐ญ

Yeah I canโt wait for arc raiders
always been a big fan of Bungie so holding out some hope
hardest class in the game โบ๏ธ
Surprised they kept this discord up
in what way
Like it's gonna be a low activity Destiny Server till more marathon comes out
why would they take it down tho
was the game good tho
Its aight
dev stream on may 16th im interested wat theyll say post alpha
hmm
pros and cons?
just wait till thief is playable ๐คซ
what is that supposed to even convey
Hrafnagud ornament use is so based, I almost never see anyone using it ๐ฅ ๐ฅ
what message are you trying to get across
Halo
waddaboutit
the best one honestly.
oh i get it klicks is talking about himself
Yeah I'm hoping that when they show all of the runners and add more mobs to the environment the gameplay will feel better
wow hilarious
Pros
Good gun play
Good looting
Very accessible
Enemy Ai is advanced
Cons
Enemy Viarity is lacking
Plays like Apex most of the time
Art Style is good but I'm afraid they've already hit the ceiling as far as customization goes
Lacking in any real naritive
subverting expectations cutting edge image
37 mobility on a hunter is insane
"Lacking in any real narrative" is crazy
i ainโt about that lol
if they actually tap into it
just compare your brainpower to the imagination of a full dev team and realize theres plenty of design space
thatโs for my survivablestuff
Iโm gonna be honest with you big dwag you donโt need high resilience you need high recovery
ceiling on customization and we seen 5 and a hlaf runners
my other armor is for mobility stuff
i just need good resilience and to throw grenades a lot with my build
Force feeding expository info through contracts is not ideal for story telling, but it is after all, only an alpha, they'll probably develope the stoty further as they go
Resilience is useless past tier 2 because nothing in the game can hit you hard enough so recovery is better itโs how fast your health can regenerate you need that more than resilience
It's very close to how the OG trilogy delivered its story
Overall I am optimistic
forbidden knowledge
iโm just used to it. plus thatโs from october lol i havenโt changed my solo content build in a minute
pair that with heroes instead of custom runners and its harder to create a connection with game world and other elements that you would otherwise want to dive into and explore. Game plays more like an arena shooter and BR than an extraction game any day
Nothing about this game is close to the og trilogy, besides that's hardly an excuse
Lol now you're just saying things
Fair
its voiced too doe
I wonder who they got to va the contractors
surely the delay of the playMA by a week is foreshadowing that theyll delay the game
Besides, we have three examples outside of the priority contract dialogues of narrative being delivered. It's not just on the contract screen. It's not a lot, but it's an alpha
Nah you donโt need that bby you should focus more on discipline and recovery throwing nades certain distance can be learned through practice you donโt need resilience thatโs only if you are planning to solo new hard content
maybe zieglers house got flooded by a burst pipe who knows
Ah okay
fwa herm?
if anyone wants to see a zero to hero run
thats a hell of a burst pipe to need a week to deal with it
house fell over too soggy
you guys remember when people thought they actually where getting in the alpha/?
If youโre funny, yes
sorrgy. accident
my build is basically for soling dungeons or doing GMs. i got god tier exotic class items as well for it.
and his wife is stuck too
it's such a shame that america hasnt yet invented houses that arent made out of paper ๐
Thatโs really difficult man
i was moreless showing the game can be solo'd i come from tarkov so im a more serious player
I canโt do that shit I would have to spend hours
yeah i have 7k its a job
I think I did a raid for 8 hours one time
7k hours?
wouldnt it be cool if the military soldiers in tarkov had maps
ye
7k hours is diabolical
and could use them like a soldier would
Yes
i no lifed that game since 2018
Im currently working on rebooting joe with my homemade weaveworm printer, the next Q/A should happen anytime now
i cant say shit though
pointless annoyance
thatโs crazy. I did Root of Nightmares for like 8-9 hours straight doing Master challenges for the seal. legit was hungy. also it was my first time doing a master raid and with a bunch of random people.
i have 60k hours in diablo 2 oops
I enjoyed it, def not for everyone but I cant wait for more
i have a video breaking down everything in the alpha that can be improved, but overall if you didnt get in and you are skeptical i had alot of fun and plan on switching games
Thatโs a whole different level of dedication Man
I'm definitely maining Marathon when it comes out
I had a lot of fun in the alpha. 114 hours โจ
iโm waiting for the stalker trilogy next gen update. 
has that been announced?
how i felt getting alpha access with only 3 days left
Yooooo same!
it was cool but def wish i had gotten it in ealier rounds
35 hours in 3 days tho so i made it work
How many days left?
For what?
How many days left as of rn for alpha
its over now but they gave me a code with only 3 days left
It ended on the 6th
ye i was js i thought it was funny
What do u mean
The alpha ended on May 6th
Let me check I'lm going to try
????
?
shlapolopadingdong
That's not very ryan goslig like of u to say
ryan gosling????????
my bad g i didnt know you were chill like that
U right
Well, good for that
I hope the game lives up to everyones biggest expectations when it's releaseed
me too, they have alot of work to do in the coming months and i hope joe's sudden bail on the playMA is for a godo reason and wasnt for talking with sony execs about some bs
i like it enough to bail on tarkov after 7k hours so its def special enough for that
Bungie, wait till there are three days left and give this man a code

type beat
I got mine like a few days after they announced the alpha
I don't get parasocial about people it is odd to me
I don't mind either to use delays when it works best for us and them
I really also want to make a worthy pivot from Tarkov and other FPS to this
just would be better if they did more to keep the longtime enthusiast & everyone better trapped in a wonder and astonishment.
somehow for all the amazing aesthetic and reinvention of a timepiece it just didn't do that. seems there is just a blunder for everyone to give a take on. if i were to, i'd say they should make the top brass in the Ai's and NPC's to utilize custom Large Language Models built by bungie. carefully, too, with richness of identity and narrative in mind
is this shit dead, alpha was not great
man thats insane luck good on you man, my friends were getting really mad
alpha was great imo
I got mine day of. I didn't expect them to be so selective the entire time
theres obv things they gotta fix and change but i wasnt disappointed with the hours i put in
it's not an an AI thing there's just a lack of fun, because you don't feel super rewarded for playing well
That's easy to fix
because the loot was scarce
idk bro getting purple and blue gear after wiping teams on my own was pretty lit
no hate, but i felt it was missing the whole looter shooter that tarkov offers
and on top of that, you didn't NEED to play well because the bots ingame sucked
tarkov isnt a looter shooter its an extract shooter
the only time there was any hint of fun was the pvp but it was so scarce even if you went out of your way to fight
d2 and borderlands is a looter shooter
Loot ofc would seem scarce if you don't progress enough. But it is. It would be come redundant quick like EFT if it were not
my b, u get the point on what im trying to say
I think it's just missing that blood pumping feeling that you want in an extraction shooter.. feels like just typical arena based PvP or destiny PvE.. stakes don't feel high, no real intensity in the environment
Yeah
i cant lie when all my teamates went down and it was jsut me fighting for my life it was fun as hell
exactly, and my opinion is that it comes down to the bots being much too easy
i feel the risk factor was not there
if they had a rework of the bots to give them dedicated units that do stuff and smart use of cover / movement it could become very fun very fast
it was there when you play with randoms bc they may or may not be decent but if you get a good squad then yeah the risk isnt really there
but the spawns for "hard" enemies wasn't good and the normal guys were pushovers
i was mowing down teams by myself when my team either wasnt around yet or went down
the hard enemies were also easy
even playing with randoms it just seems like it has the game feel of a Halo or Destiny PvP match getting matched with randoms. Doesn't have the intensity of an extraction shooter imo
the lack of intensity i feel comes from the heat system
is alpha open for new players?
can't even move at the pace you want to increase likelihood of gunfights
and heat being tied to melee is ridiculous
the alpha is over
@sweet badger so right now, no one can play it?
correct
auto que is no fun, its forced gameplay
Found a short of Shroud saying exactly what I thought about the game during the alpha
https://youtube.com/shorts/pSd4HSaWTig?si=79apEUhm3ESzCdUV
he doesnโt include that they should add some way of learning rather than a wiki page, but most of it is similar
the game originally also lacked for it's time in the FPS and just technological state then.
Marathon was way more mysterious and puzzling. If this ones wanna do any good, it should now more than before put the rest of the focus on making the universe feel unfathomable, unpredictable, enigmatic with improving what we already got in PVP and stuff.
i can see that, i personally didnt feel it all the time but there were moments when my teamates were really really bad and i kept having to revive them and fight teams on my own. and that part was where the intensity came from imo
and i had lie blue and purple gear on
Alpha
i want this game to have risk factor, if an auto que exists it feels too forced.
True
Where to we sign up for the alpha?
theres a solo que
its just you gotta fight other teams of 3
i went in solo alot icl the only thing that felt forced was having to main void bc hes really the only viable solo character
Can anybody help me out with where I can get started with the alpha please?
bro its over lmaoo
i dont want a solo vs 4 stack que. i feel ( subjective of course) it should be a certain lobby count mixing in solo's vs 4 stacks. not a player mode concept
nah i feeel that forsure when i drop my review video of what id like to see changed i mention that as well
1 of my 20 points
but thats my option. to each there own
Not to shill arc, but I wonder if any of the marathon devs played the arc raiders play test and had an eye opening experience
i was suggesting making it duo and trio if they are really adamant about the no solo
i can handle 2 most of the time but man 3 is crazy when you got an invis dude in the game
Yea, tbh I wasn't expecting on getting one either
im also struggling to believe the bungie pvp mechanics will be good after playing trails for over 8 years. they have great concepts but fail to fine tune the craft
Everything like just losing gear or loss to a profile statistic is not enough for that imo. Though it can use more of it, kind of feel like newer ideas to induce more risk & reward.
Like, just by enough attention to detail for the big picture it can easily be done.
And it's not like it's hard to come up with ideas for a game like this for that. It's kind of why I'm a little disappointed that everyone is concerned the game will be a huge blunder of a good thing.
I think they want it to be squad based so bad because of the hero aspect.. like someone mentioned, solo is going to force people into specific meta heros
no lie the hero aspect wil kill the game
i really dont understand why tho, tarkov is as popular as it is due to the solo factor
like i could go into a raid and beam a squad of 5 IF IM GOOD ENOUGH
def cant do that in this game
Tbh the bots are crazy
Idk man, we'll see
im more screwed than marathon
it works in tarkov and works in arc.. the heros are part of what kills it for marathon. Also the revive after death
Right here bro
the alpha is over and you can stop react spamming
yo the revive after death is actually insane
Actin like the hero aspect is as bad as it were valorant
tarkov is built on the principle of mechanics with the luck of gear. this game wants people to have a set kit all the time but takes the struggle form the earning part of the game
Thank you for an answer see what being polite does . I appreciate it
Well the overly long "story" tasking is what kills tarkov for me and old players (And the Cheaters)
icl i atleast dont want them to leave it to where i can do it on the spot, i like how fortnites way around that was the buses and i think they should do something similar
Are u deadass
God tier codes are being sent out right now! Just check email youโll see urs trust ๐ฏ
I've never played tarkov but just from watching gameplay everyone is on a somewhat level playing field when it comes to kits (obviously people geared higher will have an advantage) but no crazy hero skills or anything and TTK is super short in tarkov so solo is very viable
Internet explorer ah moment
Yea, exactly why I love it
yup but tbh all that can be solved by making headshot values worth more
Bring on the hate just for asking a question. @young saddle go back to beating your girlfriend and being a bad person!!!
Lmfao!!
Bro what!!! ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
no because you still have a squad of 3 with blackbird being able to just ping your location while you revive a dead teammate
is this toward my explanation, if so ill stop
like a solo player has no chance when a player on your team has wallhacks
He woke up Chris breezy
yeah but hes more like a bloodhound from apex where its jsut a previous location. if he doesnt drone you just use invis as void to get away
thats what i did atleast
but there is a hero meta you legit have to play void to solo
but that forces solos into playing void.. it's just a garbage system.. they honestly need to remove the heros from the game
at the very least remove rezing from the dead
It's the only way for a solo being able to feel like they can fairly outlive a full squad.
Just too much bs and dependence on luck or adversarial mistakes till then
Has Marshall been spazzing on everyone like this
1000% i think they should do a fortnite bus res system
Nah maybe his girlfriend but idk
where you gotta get a tag and make it to a location to revive
Oh shit he's cooking up something, I'm outta here
don't worry Marshall's a weirdo that only just joined, and because no one answered their question about if the alpha was still up, they've been react spamming and saying gross things
We love u @fallow oxide I hope people are more polite to you from now on. I just want what is best ๐จ
i literally answered him tho
Typical schizophrenic bungie fan I understand
Surprised there hasnt been a flat out ban on him
see
I just wanted to try marathon is all.
all these feature you guys want will doom the game
its not possible bro lol
You went pretty hard on me man

Marshall been flashing since he realized he was late to the alpha
i hate to say it but they lowkey deserve it for poofing away paid content
Bro may have an atv but does he have an alpha key?
Watching YouTube gameplay videos while driving the atv around the yard bored out his mind

the alpha is over asakari
Yeah you'll get a code for the beta in a couple hours
say less
marshall recieving his guilty verdict
Sheeesh you would think I did something outlandish. @realdudenp is the only person I wasnโt polite too. This is some mob mentality shit going on here
randomly saying someone beats there gf IS outlandish lmao
someone had to say it thanks Ctaylor, i dont even want to repeat that
talking about DV bc people were busy talking is wild, i hope you do get muted, crashing out is not acceptable bc of that
marshall you came out of nowhere with that cold blooded comment
So all the heโs a crack head he had 35 duis thatโs all good though right
deserved
@young saddle got so upset he cant even type anymore
If you cant take it back to the kitchen dont serve it man ๐ญ
Just saying itโs if itโs gonna be equal admonish everyone
Marshall you really hurt me
i mean dude you started talking crazsy yeah people are gonna mob up on you?
because those are funny assumptions, but what you said is in no way funny
that is not equal at all lmao
Deeply in my core you struck every nerve I thought you werenโt capable of striking
Iโm sorry @young saddle
Iโve never known pain so deep in my life Marshall ๐
poor realdude

Youโve triggered my early onset gastritis Marshall what do I do now Iโm 47

Iโm putting her on the phone Marshall got me on blast now
Lmao
broโs on a batquest
you may have just redeemed yourself with that one sentence i wont lie marshall
So uh has anyone played the alpha in here? and how did u guys like it?
yaa fr was fire
very good gio alot of fun
decent for alpha, worried for beta doe
Good game worth $40 if you like what you see
Marshall I forgive you
May you the monks and my girlfriend know what true peace is like โค๏ธ
@fallow oxide
i think he was muted
No he is with the monks now...
Rip Marshall
what a beautiful outcome, the marshall lore was unreal entertainment
Someone come get this groomer ๐ญ๐ญ
Heโs achieved nirvana
Weโll see him in marton โค๏ธ
marshall was a real one
He was my friend and yours
only the real ones will know the marathon marshall lore
broโs aura farming, all fun and games till he drops on our heads from valhalla
real
facts
I think we were all blessed to have witness what we did here today
cured my boredom
the dead dude you gotta pick up the scanner from on perimetere in the alpha was marshall
Still canโt quite understand why he came after me so hard but damn did it make me laugh good ๐
Collectively indirectly caused his crashout, made him see the error of his ways, then vanishes with an apology promising to become a monk ๐ค
what a character arc tbh
sometimes we dont understand why things happen, but everything happens for a reason
Black myth Marshall
i love how he was talking so crazy then proceeded to drop the most budhist sentence imaginable and we all came to peace
Can't be accusing people of such serious things so haphazardly
They say when a baby throws up on you itโs a blessing
When Marshall crashes out on you
I feel the same way โค๏ธโค๏ธ
Character Development
bro had the darth vader storyline
Your move HBO
maybe one day marshall will get mpreg and we can all live happily ever after
Brodie not one word was exchanged between him and I, he saw the pfp and insta friended, pfp and bio do not help his case either
MonkPreg
there better be a bench overlooking a beautiful view in Tau Ceti in honor of marshall and how self improvement is within all of us
we need a headstone easter egg for him
โHere lies Marshall, died ascending the Appalachian mountains and achieving nirvanaโ
we can just collectiverly call the dead dude on perimeter marshall
some say marshall saved us from the great marathon vs arc debate of 2025
Absolutely pc me
and what's that
its already being lost in history
LOL
The wheel of time turns
Do you guys wanna read my take on Marathon? kinda harsh but it was also after my first 10ish hours, I should probably do an updated one now that I've gotten a little more time to build my experience

halo infinite or mcc in 2025??
MCC forever
LMAOOO
man feels bad that the server is dead
reworking my custom runner
heehee
This is what it looks like rn i gotta redo the face tats but thats about it
Ded gaem ded server
no alpha no valid take
how much would you charge for one?
Oh no, what am I gonna do
shut up
Oh no
Hello
๐ฑ ๐ฑ
It all depends really, do you do 3D art n stuff? If i were to make one id have to consider that, or were you just wanting some renders with a custom charachter
Cannot believe it, was told to shut up, no way, what am I gonna do
i just want some renders with a custom character
something cool to make graphic art with
@winter briar you have the golden opportunity to market just a lil, the diehard fans would probably love to commission a custom runner
Many wonโt understand what Marshall was
But many will understand what Marshall meant ๐
They could keep those characters as skins and let us be free with ability customisation
absolutely id be willing to pay for a custom runner
Well have to work out pricing at some point but im more than happy to do it, its honestly name your price bc I love the artstyle and im already working in the general aesthetic
What would you want for a charachter?
just something that kinda looks like me if i was thrown in there
sheesh imagine an alita battle angel
Im kind of limited on the base mesh for charachter models, the head is bought from a pack but I have the liscence to make money off it with projects
With its basic definition, correct
thanks man
thats fine im not too picky about the facial stuff moreless just the hair and maybe some cool tatoos
maybe a backwards hat if you are able
This is like 10% of the references ive collected lmao
thats dope af cant lie
The posters on the bottom are hype
wooah
500 bajillion nucaloric dollars to the left
They areee i found that artist on instagram he does photoshop but im using it for refence to get the facial line etching seen in cyberpunk charachters
imagine og marathon reimagined in ue5 and new artstyle
Im head over heels for this artstyle ngl
UE5 ๐คข
if you need any kind of branding i can do that if you like to trade and cba
why
marathon is definitely not a UE5 game (i use UE5)
thank god its not
ue5 been breaking hella games lately and devs complain alot about it
The more decals the better lol, and whats cba?
cant be asked/ bbothered
not sure what that means in this context ngl
You can tell it ainโt UE5 cuz frames are being delivered at regular intervals
It's a fancy engine with Alot of flaws on its own within the engine
like if you dont wanna do it yourself id be willing to help
i heard the same
I love futuristic android art
Tiger
tiger
the cat engine!

isnt this just because of the features in ue5> you dont have to use the new features...
Can't not use those features when Devs integrate them on default without an option to turn them off
Tiger engine runs pretty well so far, turns out most of the perf issues that I've seen come from their own hardware incompatibility
like?
yo love ur work!! this looks dope and checked out ur artstation too, rly great stuff
i just dont think the outside is fleshed out rn thats why evreything looked flat
gotta mess with the fog as well too
Lumen nanite
No, the RAMs they choose
wait but you can absolutely turn them off
nanite actually makes performance better
They did have an x3d tho
true
u having some troubles?
depends on the case, in general i just think its not as simple as ue5 = unoptimized. we are acting like there are not ue games that run amazing
I have a few of the major brands as pngs for use in substance painter already i just need to make some more custom decals, someone in this discord made a custom font and Ive been using that to make some
do you want some help deciding on a ram kit? I can point you at the goooood stuff
I was kinda just throwin em on there for this version, im gonna be more deliberate and lore friendly this time around lol
the only tat i would want is my team logo but that face is mad dope
if you needed the png i got oyu with everything
Sure, I'll also provide the explanations on certain components, but if you have a pcpartpicker list you can send that my way too
CG elemets ESPECIALLY humanoid aspects indivudually dont look good by themselves whatsoever, so i was just slaping and stretching logos for my current character to see what face tats would look like when it all came together
ohh okay makes sense still goes crazy hard tho
if you are ever looking to join a decent sized team as an artist lmk
we hoppin on mcc?
Hell yeah hit me up
Nvidia's new kernel for Linux had slots of complaints, laughing my ass off looking at the forums
Glitch is so pretty...
glitch is mad pretty for a synth
Thats perfect, I'll send a fr and shoot u a message tomorrow, server grade components require server grade hardware
#goonmode activated
Thief tho ๐ฉ
your pfp
CLANK CLANK CLANK CLANK
๐คค
yeah thats gas
she wasnt in the Alpha was she?
no unfortunately
Im assuming part of her abilities have to do with looting or searching containers faster
thats gas this game needs cosplayers
Hol up i gotchu
she'll probably be one of the new / the new runner at launch
did they confrim seasonal runners?
are there gonna be more oppurtunities for playtesting? kinda sad ive yet to get a key and seeing other peeps dog on it and stop playing after a day is annoying lol
Hope the character models are getting a nice art pass for next time. Getting them closer to that CG trailer can only make them better
https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTjUWe33h/ saw this TikTok the other day
nahhhhh thats next level we need more female runners for the cosplayers
i love that stuff when its done that well
yeahhhh i saw this too earlier today
Not to be the guy to toot his own CG artist horn but, whatever rendering software they used to make the short (im assuming UE5) you need high poly high texture meshes, with fully raytraced lighting for rendering in 4k, games need to run in real time and having a stylized global illumination system instead instead of trying to bog the game down by trying to acheive the full CG look with raytracing and everything included was the best move imo, but i want it as much as you do lol
yo bungie release this game in alpha state like how tarkov is and capitalize off the feedback
am i a nerd for knowing what you said in this or am i good
Oh, in no universe are they going to match a prerender, but closing the gap a bit would be nice as they currently look bad
Nah its the other way around im the CG nerd
I was worried at first to not see any roughness maps/reflections on materials but then i saw some alpha gameplay and it looks amazing, the exteriors dont look that great but thats because theres only one light source
you are good lmaooo
They're a great option nowadays for the budget consumer imo, kinda out of the scalpers attention so I dont see why not
IS THAT JOHN MARATHON
While collecting references i realized that the artstyle is almost 1:1 to Mirrors Edge, Marathon just uses secondary and terchiary decals on surfaces to breakup the 'singularness' that everything being the same color does to a scene
Yeah
hows john fortnite been?
I'm 'bout to go to bed
Our mains finally unmuted bro
explains the mnirrors edge flashbacks i was having
John Epic? Hes been great actually
If you remove the decals in Marathon its basically mirrors edge
hopefully mutedbymods is unmuted
interesting, i wonder if its actually gonan look as good when it launches
fingers crossed so mf hard
I thought you said Gohan
at 1080p 60, easily, probably around the 80fps mark, its 10-15% faster than a 2070super
yeah should be able to
The white and red give contrast to the room and the decals add extra detail without creating extra geometry, its a classic move but the artstyle is using it to great effect
yeah looking back at mirrors edge gameplay its actually crazy how much they pulled from it.. man i hope it looks as good as that on drop wowwwww
this game looks so damn good
interiors are nice but them exteriors need a heavy facelift with more lights
Other than being a live service extraction shooter, the art style itself is going to be timeless just like in mirrors edge, im hoping when the game dies they add a pve mode lol
i want more color too
FACTS. Being outside and surveying the land left alot to be desired, interiors look super clean though
Lights, color, more geometric detail, additional texture layers โ the mountains would look a lot better with even one more contrasting color against them
ngl i donjt think they will ever do that just because they dont wanna split the playerbase or what would be left of it by that point
tarkov pve screwed that community so bad even still to this day
alpha test only in north America๏ผ
its legit half and half now
I think they leaned more into the graphic vs realism due to graphical limitations, its more resource heavy unfortunaly
yeh i never expected the game to look like the cinematic short but i do hope it atleast looks better than it does now which it most likely will
Have a goodnight chat
Yeah, but like, at some point if people say your thing looks bad then you gotta push more detail
goodnight john marathon your services are appreciated
i knew what the video was before even clicking on it because you said it was 10/10
night John, love you
jake single handedly holding up my love for the game
full BSDF textures in games is expensive, thats why nanite is such a big deal
any of yall seen ghost in the shell?
fire anime
Stand Alone Complex is my fav
B580 will do 1440p Maximum at 80-85 fps in most titles, it'll do 120 at 1080p no sweat
jsut type on youtube marathon soundtrack shoudl come up
Yeah, though nanite also has a not insignificant front end cost. Virtualizing geometry isnโt all that cheap and really requires already high definition models to cut even
how do you think the inteior of the marathon looks in comparison
Yeah ofc ultra, I gotchu
there is like a 20 minute video with audio from the cinematics and alpha home screen but i'd say this is the best official single out atm (almost 10 minutes long too)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WDRvs-IApc&ab_channel=Marathon
prob like this
nope
im very sure theyre going to rework what the interior looks like in terms of layout and textures, technical limitations of the 90s didnt offer much creative freedom back then for actual ship interior design
yo do we think theres gonna be a open beta test?
okay but why
august
did you guys see the 4chan leak?
wym
oh shoot really, i haven't seen any official announcements about it
thats what i heard idk if its 100% confirmed
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOh3xYPrYF8&ab_channel=McVee holy fuck this being 16 years old is making me feel old asf
a classic
its a reasonable guess based off of previous Bungie title alphas / betas and launches (I PRAY ON THE 16TH THEY LAUNCH BETA ASAP)
I don't know who dropped it in here I forgot their user, but the 4chan leak basically said that the negative feedback made the devs confirm a delay for 1 year, of course the leak was fake but it gave me a scare for like 5 seconds until I kept reading, Marathon is still on its tracks so no worries
fs i heard something similar but didn't know if there was a confirmed date or if they would be doing it at all. I haven't been paying attention to this discord due to not getting alpha access.
idc how unifinshed it is ill take how the alpha was than nothing for another year
Iโd actually support a delay, but I donโt think weโre so lucky
real
4chan is a dank dark and scary place (i think theyre coming after me because i just had the craziest deja vu)
I have kappa in pve so i never play it now
i like pve but man it gets boring
you can reset your account andd run tasks again
Gonna do that for 1.0
thats lame tho unless its 1.0 i wish they put prestige in pve
One of the things that even I noticed was that Alpha was purposely empty and with ARC being tested at the same time overshadowed the point of it, I'm glad the trolling is over from ARC so now the community is actually talking about some decent stuff
4Chan is for them people with a black pit in their hearts
i didnt get an arc code so idc about them bungie llooked out even if it was for 3 days
bungie made me feel special so imma support them just how it is
Ur name is nocturnal
U use 4chan then
I just dont want another Cycle scandal, I really loved that game and was so sad when it got removed
cycle got nuked bc the devs could fight the cheaters with no anticheat and didnt wanna make a deal
thats their fault not ours tbf
The conspiracy theories are wild
Probably not, They really only add skins for nostalgic gamers, fresh game so probably not
probably not i dont see how marathon skins could be marketable outside the game
I am very curious to hear their post-alpha thoughts on the 16th. Personally hoping they confirm a lot of community asks like solo queue and proximity and more customization and that comes alongside a month or two delay to make it happen at launch
Elaborate please, I thought it was because of asset allocation for their new titles
it would also have to do veryyy well for itself and reach a certain level of popularity i think (Marathon)
nah but that was a big contributor as well, the game was jsut riddled with cheaterse and they didnt want to make a deal with any anticheat companies because they all failed to do what was needed so they tried to fight back themselves and couldnt keep up so they dropped the game and now are fighting people that are trying to re make it
