[tidal nova]

It's a nice middle ground that anyone can enjoy

I'm put off by marathon's cartoony look

[sharp halo]

I'm not enjoying

[idle sphinx]

i just don't like the armor aesthetic choice

[sharp halo]

Because i cant play it 💔

[idle sphinx]

i think finals is great because they have some armor for everyone

[languid schooner]

The runners wherent "robots" they where biosynthetic

[tidal nova]

That's fair

[idle sphinx]

i prefer the tactical look

[sharp halo]

The Finals doesnt have armor????

[tidal nova]

You itching for a fix there bud?

[idle sphinx]

cosmetics? whatever you want to call it

[last blade]

I get it, this is just oozing with realism

[languid schooner]

Probably referring to cosmetics

[austere zodiac]

I can stand visuals designed to stimulate 13 yr old’s adhd brains

[languid schooner]

The graphics are leaning into realism yes

[idle sphinx]

but i still believe the faces did not look great

[austere zodiac]

Sorry it looks good

[last blade]

I mean yeah it's not roblox style but it's not hyper realism

[languid schooner]

Thats a fair criticism even if you couldn't see half of them...because helmets...

[still bramble]

Arc Raiders is better

[sharp halo]

Um not really
-# I think marathon needs male cosmetics that have gstring

[idle sphinx]

imagine this type of look

[austere zodiac]

Is this zenless?? 😂

[sharp halo]

Game hasnt even released

[nova moss]

marathon once they add voip

[languid schooner]

Thats pretty cool yeah. Kinda looks overwatch zenless esc

[last blade]

idk if a 2D extraction shooter would play well but the art is cool

[idle sphinx]

not sure, a friend sent it to me, nor do i play zzz

[still bramble]

There was just a playtest

[ancient fern]

Arc Raiders will probably have more cosmetic choices. Maybe I've just spent a lot of time with less realistic shooters but Arc Raiders has been growing on me personally :> as someone who really digs Marathon's artstyle and stuff also sorry really psychedelic guitar fuckin me up

[sharp halo]

You should the game is very good just ignore the physics and tight leggings

[idle sphinx]

nah not a gacha game player

[sharp halo]

It's good because you can gamble for a character

[ancient fern]

I was typing for a while and got hit with the solo that made me take longer and also probably less coherent

[idle sphinx]

usually fighters or shooters, recently getting into racing

[sharp halo]

Nuh uh

[idle sphinx]

can't argue with that

[sharp halo]

Didnt see it with own eyes therefor didnt happen

[tidal nova]

Dropping solid facts

[tough hazel]

Nah

[tidal nova]

Mau should've let me known I had like unused keys from all my sign ups 😭

[tough hazel]

First person master view

[sharp halo]

🤖tu tu tu tuuuu

[tidal nova]

What in tarnation is this

[ancient fern]

Hydrate.

All of you take care of yourselves and keep being awesome ❤️

[austere zodiac]

I don’t know how to handle these ARC withdrawals

[sonic willow]

It's easy, just play Tarkov.... LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

[austere zodiac]

Mario
Pokémon
League
WoW
StarCraft
RuneScape
Fortnite

[sonic willow]

Imagine playing Tarkov

I'd rather play League than Tarkov tbh

ok maybe not THAT bad... but still

[ancient fern]

I'm recalling as much of my raids in Arc and just missing it, also trying to think how I could do better. I just have this motivation to go back in and try out different tools to get good, but I can't until another tech test, beta, or full release >:[ I'm on console btw

[lusty cairn]

is the next PlayMA on May 9th at 1PM PT or May 16th at 1PM PT?

[chilly pond]

16th, but check #marathon-news for updates as always

that's the source of the info

[jaunty heart]

If they fix the outside shaders the game will look amazing

[lusty cairn]

ok so the last post in #📰alpha-announcements is wrong

[ancient fern]

I'm locked in without even being able to play the game and it's only mildly frustrating, but I yearn so strongly for the Rust Belt

[jaunty heart]

Idk the logic behind making brilliant art style that works w the buildings but not the natural environment

[chilly pond]

i think so, think that's older than the update

[sonic willow]

So how is Dragonwilds these days?

[ancient fern]

I really dig the dusty and rusty look of Arc Raiders. It feels like a futuristic wild west in some ways

[jaunty heart]

Nah but the buildings look cooler anyway

[keen zinc]

Yeah they do, colors indoors are sick

[jaunty heart]

Like the map on the marathon will be amazing idk why they didn’t lean into a colonised future planet than sparse buildings

I’d rather have massive industrial complexes

Either way ima play coz it looks awesome so far

[ancient fern]

Rather than touch other shooters. Gamers, decide for me: SMT 4 or SMT Strange Journey (further, pick original or redux)? I need to beat one of these

[keen zinc]

I hope the 3rd map is more dense with buildings and indoor fights

[last blade]

I've just been watching live streams from the play test while I wait on more news 😭

[ancient fern]

Yesss! I've personally really been enjoying Myelin's stuff on Arc

[austere zodiac]

1.) Use the Hairpin & Ferro in the early game. Super cheap and good ammo economy

1.) Stock up on materials until you get to tier 2 workbenches

[stuck aurora]

I agree the characters need to look more breedable

[jaunty heart]

They just need a solo mode at launch

[last blade]

in both games tbh

[jaunty heart]

And gamechat

[stuck aurora]

what's that? are you saying you're friendless? are you saying your friends are too broke to pay 40$? are you saying you're not a loyal bungie fan?

[ancient fern]

Yo ty! I'll keep this in mind :> I need to use smoke grenades more and also be less afraid with grenades. I'm always scared I'll blow myself up or something and barely use them

[stuck aurora]

give'em The First Descendant treatment

who says we can't have sexy in the far future ⁉️

[last blade]

someone was in here saying glitch and void were trans 💀 not sure if that's what Bungie is going for but

[stuck aurora]

general consensus is that Bungie's trying to go for non binary characters, cuz that's what they (the characters) are, "not people"

[jaunty heart]

Me and my friends don’t really play games anymore 😔 too busy w uni and the huzz (building lego Star Wars)

[stuck aurora]

W massive respect

[jaunty heart]

And drinking

[stuck aurora]

[full harness]

👍👍 also 400000 members?? How long has this server been up for

[vestal zealot]

This game needs to be like star citizen

[simple dome]

As a star citizen player with 3k in ships id say lets not do that

[vestal zealot]

I really hate when people flex money they spent and not use any logic as a response

[simple dome]

4.01 launch?

[olive atlas]

I just farded

[last blade]

BNA

[vestal zealot]

This game wants to be an extraction shooter and theirs no extraction shooter better than star citizen in all honesty

[ancient fern]

I haven't seen him play with Rhabby_V in a while so I was surprised to see him in there too. I haven't watched fruit in a loong time though I dunno if he normally does play other stuff with fruit

[ancient fern]

He is someone who's been playing with Mr.Fruit since nearly the beginning of his content with destiny 1

[civic minnow]

ig im a fake fan myb

[vestal zealot]

Wasn’t bait I was thinking of game mechanics at its core Star Citizen is the quintessential space extraction shooter every game wishes they were…

[stuck aurora]

sir the door is that way 👉 🚪

[vestal zealot]

Does your butt hurt?

[simple dome]

I cant even argue with u because the iq gap is so large it might be genetic

[ancient fern]

I didn't mean it like that my gamer, I was just saying for context and stuff. It's all good :>

[stuck aurora]

u wanna scratch it for me?

[simple dome]

Who put their toaster in pablos photo

[civic minnow]

gamer, i appreciate the context. it’s always a pleasure it’s a joy to listen to you speak about the things you like ! :D

[vestal zealot]

Prove me wrong wat is an extraction shooter you get items you leave an area if you die you lose items, star citizen you get items and complete a mission and leave an area if you die you lose items… extraction shooter

[wooden sage]

Did Tony Stark die?

[simple dome]

@vestal zealot buy twitter blue and say these things under the marathon main account youll make some money bro go crazy

[simple dome]

[vestal zealot]

Woah sigma someone’s been upping there innanet lingo to sound modern

[civic minnow]

you speak like you’re weak and afraid.

[stuck aurora]

tell'em cherri 🗣️

[narrow dirge]

Extraction shooters as a concept are bad. Artificial difficulty and lengthening of gameplay time.

[stuck aurora]

so you're not a loyal Bungie fan tsk tsk tsk

[simple dome]

You dont get paid for being regarded in here buy twitter blue so at least the pointless hours of typing pay u gang

[narrow dirge]

You all should look at Bungie saying "we want to respect people's time, so we made an extraction shooter". And laugh.

[vestal zealot]

I’m loyal to success of brands not failure and hate like you weirdos

[sage estuary]

Hey

[wooden sage]

This is gonna be a tough one fellas 🤓 😂 ⛽

NOOOOOOOOOO

[simple dome]

Like just open up star citizen if ur pc can even handle it and get on moving😭

[vestal zealot]

Like it’s copying a failing genre who all are using rinse and repeat tactics cope-ism is strong with this one

[stuck aurora]

Live Service games in general are dying, I miss the times we had genuinely good Story Driven games with PvP bonus

[civic minnow]

get jannied lmao @vestal zealot

[vestal zealot]

I don’t even know wat that means

[simple dome]

“Failing genre with zero finished games in said genre and all are only on pc” please use ur brain arc raiders dominated social media the entire playtest pack it up

[finite wave]

Put proxy in the alpha or its so over

[mental mango]

@olive atlas

[clever bluff]

Paint chips bussin

[wooden sage]

Shits sideways n shit

[vestal zealot]

And arc emulates what game it changed its concept from a pve to pvp but kept the mechanics of the pve sir branching off and away from regular extraction shooters damn i hate winning stupid arguments

[narrow dirge]

Can I get Embark to change their 3rd person extraction shooter to a first-person looter. Please.

[simple dome]

Gang its by definition and by playstyle an extraction shooter

[stuck aurora]

fk do u have a server at home for

[vestal zealot]

And so is the division

[simple dome]

Nah third persons better for this game tbh too much going on

[wooden sage]

Every game with an inventory is an extraction shooter guys

[sage estuary]

minecraft lmao

[wooden sage]

Minecraft is my favorite one

[civic minnow]

massive brain

[narrow dirge]

I haven't played it yet. Their programming team is best in class. But most (not Warframe) 3rd person games just feel...bad.

[wooden sage]

🪦 😭

[simple dome]

Looter shooter doesnt equate to extraction shooter and on top of that was highly successful one of ubisofts most popular IPS negating what u said about it being a “dying genre”

[small stone]

💀

[sage estuary]

Love me some frame

[ancient fern]

[stuck aurora]

Fortnite ⁉️

[vestal zealot]

Okay and what separates the division from arc?? Branding or what someone tells you what qualifies thinking not your strong suit

[simple dome]

It seems so anything u have items to loot and ho to another location is extraction shooter my favorite is kingdom come deliverance 2!

[small stone]

this game does look interesting, idk when the next alpha will be

[mental mango]

simple i hate mid towers and i have using,servers since my teen days

[civic minnow]

why are you continually hostile 😭😭 low-social skills showing buddy

[vestal zealot]

I’m hostile because I answer with logic woah

[wooden sage]

I love fortnite some much omg!

[simple dome]

A fucking genre gang a genre separates them the only comparison is the side game mode that got tossed to the side in the sequel which is the dark zone not the actual core game of the division😭

[last blade]

have you even played the two games? by that comment I'm guessing no

[stuck aurora]

that's so cool i want you

[simple dome]

Its all bait bro he said star citizen is an extraction shooter😭

[civic minnow]

so you’re just choosing to be rude

[wooden sage]

So was saying "thinking is not ur strong suit 🤓🤓🤓" necessary

[vestal zealot]

Genre okay and that genre uses what mechanics

[stuck aurora]

you don't get it bro he sees stuff on a higher plane that's not crashing into a tower

[vestal zealot]

It wasn’t an insult

[tidal island]

Many have tried, few have succeeded.

[rocky wigeon]

nope no marthon code yet 💔

[vestal zealot]

I wouldn’t say that if I didn’t think most of what been added to destiny wouldn’t exist most of what’s been added for players to star citizen wouldn’t exist

[rocky wigeon]

Lowkey im hoping this game has a decent anticheat

Are there really people fighting I a discord server?

[safe kernel]

Obviously what kinda question is that

[vestal zealot]

I’m waiting but my waiting is waiting and it’s tired of waiting…

[safe kernel]

No way this game lives up to the wait

[vestal zealot]

But it’s gotta system shock has a remake /master redeployed watever it’s called

[dreamy geyser]

Didnt they just bring back the original marathon titles to steam and mobile?

[hardy canyon]

are they even sending codes out anymore

[vestal zealot]

Yea but I want one of those graphically updated titles where they get some low end company to do all the lifting for one title and then make crappy sequels

[median trail]

No, marathon is getting cancelled though

[vestal zealot]

Back to the chopping board/ block

There's always different sides to the same story.

"You can't criticize the game, you didn't play it"
"The game isn't for you, dont buy it!"
"The game failed because nobody bought it!!"

You dont like what it includes

[hardy canyon]

[median trail]

Guys Holy crap. 10 was 2015 years ago.

[regal scroll]

[shut merlin]

Bro wants us to say something to it

[vestal zealot]

Make babies not children enjoy the weekend

[shut merlin]

You already said bye

[hardy canyon]

[mental mango]

Work duties got to keep food on table and rent paid

[magic rose]

Be safe

[true mountain]

if you look at my banner your eyes will be cursed

[hardy canyon]

[shut merlin]

Should have been me not him 😔

[vestal zealot]

The daily bread quest I hate those live service games sux why can’t it be pro choice

[hardy canyon]

SH U8Y IT YYUJ

[tough hazel]

Everything runs on CyAc. Or nothing runs at all.

[jade basin]

Alpha test closed?

[mental mango]

i do not live discord i have real live and other at matter in hand

[hardy canyon]

for you yea its closed

[shut merlin]

Has there been an actual dev in the chat

[median trail]

No, the game just got cancelled. They're announcing it #marathon-news

[tough hazel]

Yes plenty

[hardy canyon]

yup this is very true

[shut merlin]

Haven’t seen any yet

[vestal zealot]

It was a double entendres a reference for working for money daily and well etc etc

[tough hazel]

Das cap

[shut merlin]

How

[magic rose]

Today never thought I will see a mini ass hospital packed to the brim

[shut merlin]

I’m looking at the devs in the server and haven’t seen any message before

[hardy canyon]

yea they don't type

[magic rose]

Devs don’t type much, it mainly the mods

[tough hazel]

Devs have work to do lol

[shut merlin]

So lame

[hardy canyon]

yea busy not sending out codes

[vestal zealot]

Devs always watching… like if I tell Kirk to succ it he’s coming two floors down

[median trail]

Busy trying to figure this out

[shut merlin]

Same with mods I don’t think I have seen any

[open remnant]

Is it the 16th yet?

[hardy canyon]

what happens on the 16th

[magic rose]

Soon 🙏

[tough hazel]

Wrong one

[true mountain]

should i keep my banner or change it to something else?

[open remnant]

#marathon-news message

[mental mango]

5/9/2025 Friday

[tough hazel]

It's already gone

[shut merlin]

Weird

[magic rose]

I hope they actually take the feedback to consideration during that stream

[hardy canyon]

what is a PlayMA?

[magic rose]

Playing marathon

[hardy canyon]

yes but are they giving access to more people or is that just a livestream

[compact jetty]

marathons not real its all a dream

[magic rose]

Live stream

[hardy canyon]

oh that's not cool

[vestal zealot]

They shoulda kept it pvevove

[hardy canyon]

they did livestreams already

[magic rose]

They probably play the game still

But with other devs, yet again I could be reading it wrong 😂

[open remnant]

I think they would have definitely been taking notes

[dull badger]

e

[magic rose]

I dam hope so. I just want my cursor faster 🤣

[vestal zealot]

That’s wat started these problems

[open remnant]

it could reveal the next playtest date and show more features

[magic rose]

The devs?

[hardy canyon]

maybe

[vestal zealot]

Maybe…

[magic rose]

Just because one dev had something going on to delay it. Not the end of the world

[vestal zealot]

Maybe…

[tough hazel]

Yes it IS

[hardy canyon]

next playtest they'll send out 10 codes a day instead of 5 lets goo!

[magic rose]

😭 it really ain’t. Just gotta have patience

[tough hazel]

World literally turned upside down right now because I don't have marathon

[shut merlin]

You know I thought discord showed the songs you were listening to

[mental mango]

mines is not

[hardy canyon]

it does if you have spotify linked

[magic rose]

I mean think about it. After that live stream we be inching closer to full game or maybe the nexts beta or something

[shut merlin]

I do but I go on my profile and it doesn’t show

[vestal zealot]

Yea he dnt have marathin and everybody from destiny got pulled from destiny for this shhty game

[hardy canyon]

think you need to display it In settings or something

[tough hazel]

Any game I'm excited for I try to imagine it's years away so I don't flip out

[vestal zealot]

Devs coulda been makin D3

[magic rose]

Not wrong. I have the same mentality

[true mountain]

my mom and dad are gone yes

[magic rose]

Destiny 3 be shit lowkey

[tough hazel]

Same batman bro

[true mountain]

can someone adopt me?

[tough hazel]

You're all you got now buddy

[shut merlin]

It’s on

[vestal zealot]

Blasphemy!!!!

[tough hazel]

I think destiny ran its course

[hardy canyon]

yea man ur shit is fucked unlucky

[magic rose]

Just saying, Destiny 2 pissed me off a lot and realistically. We ain’t seeing a D3 anytime soon with them pushing out huge content for D2 still so

[wooden sage]

Would ppl play d3

[vestal zealot]

Such harsh words for someone wanting the game rehashing all destiny animations

[wooden sage]

There's like 2

[magic rose]

Exactly. Yes bungie want marathon and destiny side by side. But Destiny still has a lot of hiccups that annoy me to my core. It hard as shit now to play that game solo without a group to do raids, missions with DLC, crucible still shit

[hardy canyon]

destiny 2 still has a really good playercount

[tough hazel]

I played all the halos reusing stuff doesn't bother me.

[vestal zealot]

True they need to really go back and restart destiny from the beginning new universe chest board or watever the darkness and light are playing on

[magic rose]

We need a D1 again and not remove DLC packs like they did in D2 with forskan

[tough hazel]

Yeah I feel like destiny is absolutely a game you just had to be there for. Otherwise you're just going to be confused

[vestal zealot]

Halo 2 was peak

[vestal zealot]

Yes

[tough hazel]

Halo 2/3 and odst yeah. Reach was a perfect loop around

[magic rose]

Never thought it that way, but weirdly enough I agree to this. I play all of D1. Then got into D2 with DLC I bought out of order so I messed it up for myself

[vestal zealot]

I was hoping marathon be a loop around to the halo era bungie I was wrong

[magic rose]

If we can get a D3 like D1, we be gucci like chief kiss on a nice ass buffet table

[true mountain]

i also have my imaginary friend

[shut merlin]

Damn 😭

[vestal zealot]

I just want them to add sum space combat like railjack and I’m sold forever

[atomic shard]

guys, how I can get alpha acsess?

[magic rose]

Honestly, I dig the idea. I think I be sold as well

[tough hazel]

Gotta dance

[atomic shard]

I'm dancing!

[proven kernel]

It ended on the 6th.

[hardy canyon]

cap

[atomic shard]

oh, ok

[unborn kettle]

You thought it'd play like Halo without any of the old halo devs being left at bungie since 343 took over?

[tough hazel]

Those fingers danced to type that

[hardy canyon]

I guess so yea

[magic rose]

Wait bungie made halo?

[tough hazel]

What's halo?

[vestal zealot]

I surely did and I was so wrong

[true mountain]

i dont understand how people get fat

[hardy canyon]

no they made masterchief

[magic rose]

Isn’t that part of the halo series tho?

[tough hazel]

No Fortnite did, uncultured

[hardy canyon]

well mastercheif

[vestal zealot]

Ooh rah

[unborn kettle]

That's a very bold assumption seeing as the current devs since Destiny hasn't had a single halo dev

[atomic shard]

till the odst

[tough hazel]

Halo tv show did marathon best no lie

[proven kernel]

Wat

[magic rose]

Idk what that means. Even tho I have an Xbox. Never play halo before. Might of trigger people in chat saying that but 😭 whoops

[true mountain]

fortnite movie when?

[unborn kettle]

You're supposed to be in #new-noise 😞

[atomic shard]

so what's better marathon or arc riders?

[leaden estuary]

So what's the update on this game?

[proven kernel]

It’s slow.

[hardy canyon]

yea Im very triggered this is outrageous

[vestal zealot]

There were fewer than five ppl left from halo era and now there are none

[kindred vigil]

The better game is whichever one you like

[magic rose]

I’m sorry, ik im uncultured

[unborn kettle]

Newer noise had that effect I think

[tough hazel]

It's true, most of halo Bungie was bare bones by reach

[leaden estuary]

Any new updates in the sense of next alpha, if they're going to cancel the game like the Bioware did for Anthem?

[atomic shard]

I like DRG

[hardy canyon]

its okay

[proven kernel]

True. Also I bet a lot of college aged peeps are having finals and moving right now.

[magic rose]

🙏 don’t worry. Idk what oblivion is either or fallout

[unborn kettle]

NEEYTH WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN

[stone pilot]

Slowing metabolism, self loathing, coping not getting into the alpha by eating a 20 pc chicken mcnugget 🫃

[kindred vigil]

No, the game isn't gonna get cancelled as far we know but I don't think there's no news of a next alpha but there's a beta august rumor

[tough hazel]

You really don't need to be about video games, dont let anyone gatekeep they don't know fr lol

[hardy canyon]

oh wow gotta watch the fallout tv series at least

[kindred vigil]

I took a break to go outside ☝️🤓

[unborn kettle]

Yeah thats true I just had my last final on the 6th

[magic rose]

Is it any good?

[leaden estuary]

Awesome. Thanks for that brotha!

[open remnant]

going outside is tight!

[vestal zealot]

Halo 5 was a marathon salute but ppl were like fuxx that black dude I want chief bacc

[hardy canyon]

most people really liked it yea

[magic rose]

Oh ik, I just find it funny even tho I got an Xbox. Never played halo where if anyone play ps they played a lot of the popular exclusives

[unborn kettle]

Was worried about you little neeyth

[magic rose]

I will give it a shot today since I’m recovering from surgery

[proven kernel]

https://tenor.com/view/tight-pitch-meeting-domiek-gif-21281597

[tough hazel]

Halo stopped being cool in 2009 it's fine

[glacial sleet]

whens the new alpha 😤

[unborn kettle]

Also you know that GIF I made for you still hasn't made it through the pending review process 😒

[shut merlin]

Halo 5 multiplayer was good

[vestal zealot]

Nevuary 1st

[kindred vigil]

halo stopped being cool when that spartan IV stuff was getting introduced

[proven kernel]

Yeah, I looked earlier lol.

[magic rose]

Only time I heard about it again when the chief collection came out for free on Xbox due to gamepass I think or gold

[tough hazel]

Yeah I think they thought it would help bring halo back but it just made things worse until it came to PC lol

[vestal zealot]

I lived in war zones it was the best mode ever

[unborn kettle]

By the time it gets done nobody will be asking for alpha codes I'll have to change it to Beta codes 😞

[tough hazel]

Hey how do I get into the alpha ?

[magic rose]

Sounds like kingdom hearts moment when they ported all their games to pc

[kindred vigil]

it's over big boss

[tough hazel]

I jk

[proven kernel]

Create a Time Machine.

[pearl mica]

You need be Pregnant

[mental mango]

@magic rose you have Golden road with p.c game pass on x box

[vestal zealot]

You got some red high heels to Click together?

[wicked adder]

What’s uppppppo

[kindred vigil]

Doctor who style or back to the future style

[wicked adder]

Happy Friday all

[magic rose]

Do I?

[proven kernel]

Depends on the flavor you prefer.

[vestal zealot]

Arc raiders felt like a game that shoulda been another type of game

[magic rose]

💀 I play the most dumbest games off gamepass

[tough hazel]

When this game is like a week old, we should all come in here and ask for alpha codes

[kindred vigil]

Driving cars to the future and past is sick asf sooo

[iron aspen]

BR WOOOOOOOOOOOO

[shut merlin]

I like swat

[magic rose]

Like a BR style?

[kindred vigil]

It was a pve only game originally

[pearl mica]

Unless your having twins of course

[iron aspen]

their writing is this fire ❓ ❓ ❓

[tough hazel]

Make the twins a discord and use them to ask to

[sand fable]

chat when do they usually stream their playtests... i thought theyd be live right now and do it when theyd planned to do the playMA

[tough hazel]

Every 30 minutes

[pearl mica]

But you need to push them out Kris that’s some serious pain

[vestal zealot]

It’s true whole time it was awesome and I thought this feels great and weird for some reason…

[tough hazel]

I'm literally the strongest man alive. I can give birth to twins gg ez

[silver rose]

Youve never played it.

[kindred vigil]

Considering they changed game directors and the game is kinda different from the first internal play test I agree with this they probably should do another delay to early 2026

Ok they changed it to forever lol

[magic rose]

Arc felt like a BR that took graphics from off the grid

[pearl mica]

Prove it

[silver rose]

How can people talk with such conviction about games they've never tried it's mind boggling

[tough hazel]

They banned me last time

[iron aspen]

so real

[tough hazel]

Does marathon have swords

[pearl mica]

Your pregnant aswel

[silver rose]

You have literally never played it.

[magic rose]

Honestly, it should

[silver rose]

No code. My condolences

[wooden sage]

Is marathon

[kindred vigil]

I think marathon might have melee skins for your knife

I mean, the director is...a valorant dev yk

[magic rose]

Swords in marathon would be meta for void players 😭

[silver rose]

You don't have the role. Lol no you haven't

[pearl mica]

Mida for life

[tough hazel]

What super powers are in this game

[wooden sage]

Farting

[pearl mica]

Preggers is the super power

[silver rose]

None. They're all grounded in sci Fi technology.

[plain wigeon]

hey just curious is there not an alpha access channel anymore?

[tough hazel]

What abilities do they have

[magic rose]

Correct

[plain wigeon]

gotcha ty

[vestal zealot]

Nall not BR it just felt weird like there was more to it and then it ends… like a good joke that makes Yu cry and then awkward after silence

[pearl mica]

But anyway all of you are Pregnant. Bite me

[kindred vigil]

You're super pregnant then

[magic rose]

Oh? Never thought that when I saw gameplay of it. If someone didn’t tell me it was arc. I would of said it was a rip off of off the grid early access BR

[pearl mica]

I’ve already pushed 10 done my part

[kindred vigil]

PUSH MORE‼️‼️‼️

[proven frost]

I expect back and foot rubs

[vestal zealot]

It has that feel but a better quality

[proven frost]

And nuggies

[pearl mica]

It’s soar

[vestal zealot]

Like if someone said run around this battlefront map

[magic rose]

Which I can agree on. Off the grid feels off as shit no matter how many times I try to play it

[silver rose]

Locus is a guy with a shield he runs around with and can move extra quick for the cost of burning up his heat (stamina) faster. Also has directional dash.

Glitch is double jump stompees hunter essentially. With an arm cannon.

Blackbird is the scanning guy from apex but also with a tracking bomb.

Void is invisible man who has active camo but it also activates off of any smoke. He also has a smoke slam he can use mid air and a deployable line of smoke. Void is best character currently

[magic rose]

So we ain’t falling off edges or glitching on the floor 😭

[vestal zealot]

Yup except might fall off a few building edges

[magic rose]

Ayy it gets a gold medal, love hearing for once we ain’t getting a game that treats you like a bug

[tough hazel]

Have they said anything about prox chat

Void sounds fun and like I'm gonna cry

[silver rose]

Planned but won't be on release because of regional legal stuff they are working out

Think it's something to do with UK rules iirc

[tough hazel]

What was your favorite thing about the game?

[vestal zealot]

Yea it’s hella smooth I gotta say great quality the spawning is terrible tho

[bold sleet]

In my playtime I never felt oppressed by a Void player, snipers maybe

[magic rose]

I bet, I wish I could play it by the graphics and 3rd POV trigger my motion sickness

[silver rose]

Hard to pin it to one thing but the general immersion + gunplay + gameplay loop. There's a lot missing but the moment to moment gameplay in raid is just fun. No other way to put it, it's not complete and definitely needs work but it's a blast.

Especially the indoor battles and environments feel very immersive and intense

[vestal zealot]

Yea it’s like battlefront 3rd person 2019 battlefront not classic

[silver rose]

They definitely nailed the feeling of the cinematic in the gameplay If that makes sense

[vestal zealot]

Yu talking about wildgate lmao

[tough hazel]

So mad I didn't get to play it 😂 I never know when any play tests are happening for some reason like where do you find out about that stuff for all games lol

[magic rose]

Never put two and two together. For me, I remind me of pubg idk why, idk where the thought of it came from. Personally I can’t do graphic like that or POV due to an old concussion

[silver rose]

I have been following this game since we first heard leaks about it tbh. I've literally been waiting for a Bungie extraction experience since destiny 1 alpha

[brittle marlin]

this games ass

[silver rose]

I loaded in and wanted to kill other peeps in the cosmodrome and take their shit

[vestal zealot]

The pubg vibes are real if you didn’t know it was arc you woulda thought pubg expansion from seeing clips

[tough hazel]

Shhh non believer

[zinc ruin]

😦

[brittle marlin]

this game will only make it because its the newest extrat shooter on console

[magic rose]

You’re really not wrong. Yet arc has the graphic polished. Pudg is like the ps2 graphics 😂

[zinc ruin]

noalphaaccess disappointed bungo I love you, why you hate me?

[kindred vigil]

I'm gonna eat ur pfp

[mental mango]

?

[tough hazel]

Very blanket statement to say

[vestal zealot]

This game will make it if they expand to adding a halo style pve campaign separate from the extraction element

[silver rose]

People got mad at me for saying it looks and feels a lot like pubg xd

[tough hazel]

This game will make it as long as peanut butter gets on the jelly and not the other way around

[silver rose]

Dosent even need to be seperate imo. But just better/ more story content

[turbid forge]

im back what did i miss in slumber

[shut merlin]

Didn’t play it did you?

[vestal zealot]

Pubg is still the originator to the pvp massive multiplayer madness

[silver rose]

The threat of PvP if you're not the type to search for it is decently low

[tough hazel]

I will hunt EVERYONE

[silver rose]

Cleared plenty of lobbies but it's very easy for one void to go hide across the map near the edge somewhere and wait an eternity for us to leave just for them to come back and Rez

[vestal zealot]

Story content is planned but how it’s applied is wat will make it matter… for example if we’re having live story events, and you get sniped and now your missing the event your gonna be blowed

[tough hazel]

I'll keep that in mind

[silver rose]

So its favored in the avoidance side more than the aggressor side

[summer basin]

Yo chat, is this a foreshadowing of a game delay ... like yo gang 😭

[tough hazel]

Game release in July don't even trip dawg

[silver rose]

Simple fix. Have all story missions require successful exfil.

[gaunt sphinx]

hoping it gets pushed to next year

[topaz comet]

everytime i enjoy a multiplayer game it gets delayed or canceled

[silver rose]

You fail time to replay the contract. Like half of the contracts already in game.

[summer basin]

next year is GTA6 ... game is so cooked 😭

[austere zodiac]

Who paid you

[brittle marlin]

i played

[vestal zealot]

But that takes away from the live element they were going with…

[silver rose]

No? Not at all. It makes each lobby more live. Every is going to POIs to accomplish all these different story events.

[turbid forge]

no, tarkov does the same with most quests and it works out fine

[silver rose]

If you all die you gotta run it back meaning next lobby will be more live

[austere zodiac]

This game was pretty ass….

[silver rose]

You just gotta play the game to get it imo

[iron linden]

Did they stream it?

[summer basin]

no they delayed it to next week 😭

[turbid forge]

i didnt like that no matter if i died i could turn my tasks in ngl

[silver rose]

I have ~70 hrs on the playtest it only really clicked after about 10-15

[brittle marlin]

sadly its true console has what 3 extract games all old and dead, so all you console players will enjoy this game for 2-3 weeks and go back to whatever game ur decent at

[vestal zealot]

Okay so from wat remember there is no multiple lobby style Fortnite it suppose to be persistent maps

[austere zodiac]

I thought it looked bad, I played it for 15 hours and it didn’t get any better

[iron linden]

the tweet made it sound they were going to do something instead today as well

[silver rose]

Nope. You're wrong there is NO persistent maps sorry man

[tough hazel]

You fr gotta try things to like them

[austere zodiac]

Tried it and didn’t like

[tough hazel]

And it's okay if you don't at least you tried

[gray marten]

Heard from a friend of my cousins friends boyfriend, they are launching into EA next Tuesday, just saying.

[tough hazel]

A game for everyone is a game for no one

[silver rose]

Make sure to tell the devs exactly why you didn't. It'll help a lot

[turbid forge]

all i see are skill issues when i see a neg criticsm like that lmaoo

[topaz comet]

Ox is a arc raiders fan he just hangs out here for zero reason other than to promote the game he actually gives a shit about

right Ox?

[silver rose]

Or I hope you did rather I don't think the surveys are open anymore

[austere zodiac]

I was extremely specific

[turbid forge]

i been shouting this to the moon

[silver rose]

There def is a lot of that going around. But if you're not queued up with a premade you're at a huge disadvantage vs others who are

[tough hazel]

FR like sorry you don't like a game, I do

[silver rose]

I have 70 hrs in games. This is wrong lmao

[austere zodiac]

Damn straight

[turbid forge]

https://youtu.be/oNXJB4w5CME zero to hero run will change ur mind

[topaz comet]

nothing wrong with not liking the game its just weird that those same people hang out in here

[vestal zealot]

The main content is not active for the alpha

[turbid forge]

i only ended up dying to bad audio

[silver rose]

The environment disent change drastically but it's multiple seperate battle royal type lobbies. People aren't constantly joining. The poi loot doesn't respawn etc

[austere zodiac]

I was here first, I heard about ARC here and I tried both

[silver rose]

Each run is 33 min max and then closes each run has a max of 18 players no more join after the start.

[tough hazel]

Whats arc about

[silver rose]

The game is not persistent. That's just factually incorrect

[turbid forge]

i will reitterate peple will only enjoy arc until the third person meta becomes too heavy and they lose enough kits to it and then will stop playing

[tough hazel]

All the arc lovers can't explain what it is, what it's about, or why they like it better than marathon.

[silver rose]

Don't need to change my mind. I've don't plenty of zero to hero runs myself. Lol

[solid yew]

Wasnt there supposed to be a stream at 1pm?

[vestal zealot]

Custom character

[topaz comet]

The divsion with a apocalyptic theme i guess idk how else id describe arc raiders

[austere zodiac]

Post apocalyptic Earth, humans go underground. Robots with Kill-on-sight-directives roam the surface. You’re raiding the remains of the surface for resources

[tough hazel]

I had to cancel

[silver rose]

They explicitly said. THERE IS NO PERSISTENT MAPS.

[turbid forge]

then youd know its not all bad solo, i will say having to use void if you WANT to solo is a bit mid

[tough hazel]

How is that similar to marathon

[silver rose]

You're just wrong. Don't believe everything Google AI says. It's frequently incorrect

[austere zodiac]

I don’t think it is? Which is probably why I like one and dislike the other

[vestal zealot]

From the email I received all main content in alpha is not active they were merely running a numbers check and combat for stability

[latent gyro]

I expect marathon to keep the maps and just add more as time goes on tbh

[turbid forge]

that what they will do

[silver rose]

Didn't say that. Said you are at a significant disadvantage vs a good premade stack. That's still true. Dosent mean impossible. But for the average dad gamer it's rough.

[next plaza]

whens next test

[turbid forge]

ahh thats fair then i read too fast

[austere zodiac]

When’s next album

[next plaza]

❤️

[silver rose]

They explicitly told us what isn't in the alpha. They also said persistent zones ARE NOT a thing they said it on the live stream before they announce the playtest...

[tough hazel]

Weird that it's even a discussion in here then if the games aren't similar 😂

[silver rose]

They said it's not a thing at all

[austere zodiac]

It’s an “extraction shooter” 🤷‍♀️ I don’t make this stuff

[silver rose]

I'm a tryhard no lifer. But it's important to look at things from a casual pov rather than my pov imo

[latent gyro]

It was in the Bungie Marathon Vidoc you didn’t watch they mentioned persistent maps just like when they mentioned level based matchmaking that people kept saying I was bsing about

[turbid forge]

yeh but we both know these games are for us and not for them

[next plaza]

this carbonara instant ramen ready in 4 minutes is god tier

[vestal zealot]

A lot of content was cut from the alpha including the exploration bits. I was wondering why no one had found keys yet

[turbid forge]

as ass as that sounds its not supposed to be for everyone

[shut merlin]

I think you might just suck

[next plaza]

abit spicy but still good

[tough hazel]

Extraction shooters with completely different story premises and art style. Like Fortnite to warzone

[silver rose]

Bro. I'm not gonna bother arguing with you. You. Are. Wrong. That's it that's all. You can wait and see for yourself if you're so inclined I have literally no reason to lie about this.

[tough hazel]

Lie about what

[vestal zealot]

He didn’t know they’re gonna have persistent maps

[shut merlin]

I mean he is right

[silver rose]

There's not going to be persistent maps. They explicitly said this but people believe what they like.

[turbid forge]

persistant wiht a raid timer? thats a wild concept

[tough hazel]

Guess they'll have to play and find out 😈

[silver rose]

Bro they said in the stream BEFORE THE ALPHA that there will BE NONE

It doesn't work with how the game works currently

[fickle shell]

Why would the team know this though? Obviously Google would know

[gentle warren]

I am bungie. There will be no maps.

[tough hazel]

Is it that serious bro, let's breathe

[silver rose]

I am breathing?

[tough hazel]

Seething

[turbid forge]

i mean hes right and everyone keeps saying hes wrong

id get a bit annoyed too like you would

[silver rose]

Idk why we didn't watch the livestream xd

Like just go watch it

[turbid forge]

theres literally a raid timer you cant have persistant maps with a raid timer

[tough hazel]

Marathon will be A GAME

[silver rose]

Yerp 33 min max per raid

[vestal zealot]

It’s a flow -key thing to keep player rotation in and out and keep players engaged, so that they have development time to add more stuff like how players tryn go for something on gta but end up fighting others for 5 hours

[turbid forge]

bro theres a raid timer

[shut merlin]

Why say bad stuff about this game and still stay in here just say your stuff and leave

[silver rose]

That will never happen lol.

[shut merlin]

Pretty simple

[silver rose]

The maps last 33 min as is.

[gentle warren]

To say more bad stuff

[turbid forge]

persistant maps is what tarkov wants to do meging all the maps together and tried to make it work with those transfer exfils and even that didnt work

[shut merlin]

Yeah no reason you are just talking to us not the devs it’s pretty dumb 😭

[turbid forge]

that tech is insanely hard to use in these kinds of games

[silver rose]

The gameplay loop is not like Tarkov it's more casual to appeal to a more casual audience. That's their whole thing rn is trying to casual-ify the extraction experience.

[shut merlin]

Like what are WE going to do

[silver rose]

Persistent maps would just make the game non friendly to casuals and not the direction they want

[sharp wyvern]

does anyone know if the playtest is still going on? i have not kept up with updates or news

[kindred vigil]

It's over big boss

[silver rose]

It's been over for awhile dude. You can also just check the news channel.

[main abyss]

Arc Raiders though 👀

[vestal zealot]

Not really if their zoning the maps and building them on a quadrant base with an inbetween area like a waiting area then their essentially giving players a train station while they transfer…

[sharp wyvern]

thanks

[turbid forge]

ight bet then why dont you do it since multiple billion dollar companies cant do it

[silver rose]

This is a year ago. The stream was a week before the alpha. Shit changes. I have 70 hours in the playtest. You can cope and seethe. But you're wrong.

[keen turret]

Playtest is over ? F no point being in here rn then lol. Godspeed

[candid talon]

Yo what's up

[vestal zealot]

SMH billion dollar companies do do it that’s how instancing works

[silver rose]

There is no persistent zones go watch the alpha reveal stream

[latent gyro]

What do you mean? There are green, blue and purple keys

[candid talon]

🫃 🫃 🫃 🫃 🫃 🫃

[silver rose]

A video from a year ago is outdated you should keep up with latest info lol

[vestal zealot]

Not those keys

[turbid forge]

no they arent the tech isnt even really there yet bc of instance layering like wow

thats the closest we have that functions naturally

and when you layer realms or instances its still not what you think it is

[vestal zealot]

Remember MAG 128 player maps ps3

[latent gyro]

I have 72 hours in the playtest, your hours don’t attest for Bungie’s vision on the game lol. If they change it so be it, but they have not said a word about that. All they have said is there will be seasonal resets, doesn’t mean map changes.

[silver rose]

Are you rage baiting? Ive literally done almost every key in the playtest

[turbid forge]

you remember the constant crashing and bugs that came from it?

[silver rose]

They said it in the reveal stream. Keep coping.

[vestal zealot]

My experience was more stable than most…

[silver rose]

Just go watch the reveal stream.

[turbid forge]

i mean shit even battlefield had to revert the 64v64 matches

[latent gyro]

What keys are you referring to?

[shut merlin]

Battlefield 2042 is so bad

[gentle warren]

This is a year ago. The stream was a week before the alpha. Shit changes. I am 6’2 and enjoy playing sports. You can cope and seethe. But you're wrong.

[turbid forge]

look g im sure you mean wel but i dont even think you know what you saying at this point and are grasping at straws rn

that game was hot doodoo

[latent gyro]

Coming from someone else other than myself that is looking forward to the game this is just weirdly hostile lol relax and just wait and see

[vestal zealot]

The keys that open up the extended location zones those weren’t in the alpha the ones apart of the story content

[shut merlin]

So was the test good for this game

[silver rose]

It's not hostile. I'm telling you what they said in the reveal stream and you started arguing with me if anything you're the one who is hostile hello? It's literally just what they said during the reveal stream. Just. Go. Watch. It.

[latent gyro]

I mean the Alpha was a very small slice of the entire game, they didn’t want to reveal too much especially since it wasn’t under NDA

[turbid forge]

yeh they gutted almsot the entire thing and was supposedly a build from a couple months ago and not recent

[gentle warren]

1-2months

[silver rose]

Yep there's a lot of doors that are not interact able and are like walls basically. Also timed buttons. And one way vents from locations non accessible.

[turbid forge]

yeah youd be surprised at what 300-500 people can do in a month or two

[vestal zealot]

No im not gta v uses this feature star citizen, and swtor,anthem and another game all do it as well

[misty mason]

They should have kept it NDA, this is why we don't get nice things.

[latent gyro]

The alpha test we played is supposedly a 3+ month old build. They used it as a playtest for weapons, contracts, and gunfights mostly while protecting the core content of the game.

[turbid forge]

those are instance layered especially star citizen

[scenic meteor]

they had no reason to remove the NDA idk why they did

[turbid forge]

half the time i cant even see my friends in a gta 5 online lobby until they fade in from other instance layers

[pine marsh]

Bumping this banger while on a run hit different. Felt like I was right in the cinematic short. Do you like to listen to music while gaming?

[latent gyro]

I agree, people think Bungie isn’t capable of presenting a finished product in September and don’t realize they already are polishing up a core for the Beta and Full Release in the back end

[silver rose]

They botched the reveal stream. Ngl. The bit rate was pretty bad and the trailers don't do the game fair justice

[brave agate]

how do you even sign up for alpha?

[rancid pebble]

wonder who else said that before the alpha even launched 🤔

[silver rose]

You. Don't. It's. Over. Read. News. Channel.

[brave agate]

nah ion wanna

[turbid forge]

@vestal zealot i jsut feel like you dont know what the difference between an instance layer and what a persistant map is really suppsoed to be

[vestal zealot]

Okay so what are you tryna disagree with me on sir you telling me companies can’t do it and I said they have. I literally described the process how it works and your saying they haven’t done it yet make it make sense

[latent gyro]

I’d rather just wait for the upcoming stream that got delayed 2 times for up to date information, especially since a video from barely 2 years ago apparently is too outdated for an image on game development.

[turbid forge]

THEY USE INSTANCE LAYERS NOT P{ERSISTANT MAPS

[silver rose]

You are clueless to how any of this stuff actually works. Your PFP is AI generated.

[turbid forge]

thats why when in gta 5 you and your friend can be in the exact same place but if hes in another instance layer you cant see him

[vestal zealot]

A persistent map means static data and maps can be instances so what are you talking about???

[turbid forge]

persistent maps hed be there 100% and the load would be abismal

[gentle warren]

"The build is a month behind. Two months behind actually." "What I will say in general is development is not as linear as you might think." - man called Joe

[turbid forge]

imagine having to load up everything every player has thats there all at once

[silver rose]

No they can not. A persistent map is an extraction term. Meaning people can constantly leave and join the run.

[turbid forge]

inventories guns money etc

[turbid forge]

yes

[scenic meteor]

Aka Tarkov

[turbid forge]

no tarkov doesnt do it either

[latent gyro]

Most likely was about a month and a half at the start of the alpha test then if he’s correcting to 2 months like that

[rancid pebble]

wait why do we want 500 players on a single map again?

[silver rose]

Dark and darker has this

[scenic meteor]

Tarkov is persistent until a certain timer

[turbid forge]

no its not

[vestal zealot]

Your talking like their separate things

[rancid pebble]

scavs don't count

[silver rose]

Or had idk if it still does but they were playing with it

[magic rose]

What did I come into

[turbid forge]

yes an instance layer and a persistant map are 2 different things tech wise

[maiden bobcat]

Yeah they're not people

[vestal zealot]

A persistent map is a developer term

[silver rose]

Objectively. They are seperate things dude.

[silver rose]

Layers. And persistent maps aren't the same thing.

World of Warcraft has Layers but the world is not persistent

[latent gyro]

Persistent zones means the environment won’t change, no one has been talking about that term you mentioned regarding Marathon this entire time.

[silver rose]

World of Warcraft resets zones every so often

[turbid forge]

^^^^^^

[turbid forge]

nah thats been grievas argument for about 15 mins

[vestal zealot]

No their not he saying an instance and a map are separate not layers

[turbid forge]

a PERSISTANT MAP is

[silver rose]

Nope. And the environment does change during the game. It can start or stop raining mid run. That's not what a persistent zone is. It's what dark and darker has

[latent gyro]

If there were persistent maps like how he was talking about they would not be calling it an extraction shooter, it would be a battle royale.

[silver rose]

Instance =layer. Even in POE

Like bro has played no video games atp

[silver rose]

???? Battle royals are not persistent hello????

[latent gyro]

Again, not talking about the weather here. I’m saying they are not going to adjust building structures and placement of locked key areas for example on perimeter after their final release
