I hope I made my point across cause we all know what happened when The Cycle: Frontier used that monetization system and progression system resulted in a sunset. The Cycle: Frontier cheater issue was NOT a problem because there was NO PLAYERS in first place after release numbers fell. Players didnt leave The Cycle: Frontier because of anti cheat problems it was purely because there was nothing to do they had played the game and had no progression left to do after 3 hours of gaming no reason to go back to the game.

I loves the gameplay of The Cycle: Frontier but after a few runs there was nothing new it was just go in get gear that I already had and get out maybe some pvp but thats all. this is not a good LONG TERM nor live service strategy.

Hey guys. hepl pls, i dont undertstnd how complete quest introdutcion nucaloric (
LFG EU
i just kept dumping myself into the world and talking to people when they were willing, and following them when they werent talking or on the same quest
without the nda channel thats kinda how its gotta be. honestly dont mind it kinda old school
Alan Wake 2: Chapter Songs ā Follow You into the Dark (featuring RAKEL) insane song btw
try lost at sea. its in the AW2 Soundtrack too
Its so over

we're so back
Not this time, snowflake.
I have to agree itās never been this over
im seeing the most positive feedback ive ever seen for this game
LFG EU
This server, while fun, is huffing the hopium hard brother.
we're back bro trust
feedback? positive? NDA doesn't allow such things though, cannot give opinions feelings nor feedback
Trust the plan patriots are in control
i MAY or MAY NOT have seen positive feedback
I mean, it couldnāt have gotten worse
It didnāt get worse but it also didnāt improve that much, a shame i actually do like bungie and their games
So I have been accepted to the marathon test but my code says itās been redeemed, whatās up with that
Who knows, season 1 BP in closed tech test will this be carried over to the release or will the release be a repeat?
feels a bit clunky also feels like its not optimized all that great with the game having little stutters
holy shit the one time I come on gen chat I see peak mentioned
Gotcha
Its not about the game, brother. Its about the journey.
literally rocking aw2 hat n shirt rn
Yeah for sure which is honestly very odd considering destiny is so smooth, it has to be a deliberate design choice
yes
yeah its odd
Still not in NDA chat
Can we talk about the game in here or no?
no
No
Fr, the game itself is mid and the graphics are still lackluster, everything else is fire
You can talk about the April test, which isnāt that much different that this one tbh
The Cycle: Frontier is all I can say
am I allowed to ask how to change my audio device for voice chat? Its just greyed out and wont let me change it.
I have great praise for The Cycle: Frontier but sadly their systems made no sense for a live service and was clealy not gonna keep a playerbase nor make profit longer term
Thatās horrifying to hear
Believe it or not straight to jail
Is there more sets of keys going out still?
welp
šØ
guys if someone will be later on to play add me or dm on discord
Only so much they can do in a few months to be fair, but yeah itās looking grim
idk hope so
if The Cycle: Frontier released rn id expect it to run 50-60fps on my legion go handheld pc with decent settings looking amazing and running smoothly.
which is very good for a new modern game
I did not enjoy the April alpha, I figured maybe there would be semi big changes from an alpha to a tech test
Based on what people did and did not like
the -redacted- might run the same but I wouldnt be able to say anything
Iām installing it now, I guess Iāll see in a few
They did make some good chsnges but unfortunately the first impression and art theft is going to be a big hurdle for them to overcome, I hope they do because if this fails it might bring down destiny with it
Or it might be the thing that forces their hand into going into hibernation and working full force on Destiny 3 finally
Oh for sure, I honestly donāt intend on playing or buying marathon, Iām just participating because info has been so hush-hush I want to see progress for myself
Although the last thing I want is for destiny to fail, itās been a part of my life for a while and Iāve made some great friends through it
I think ugh destiny is already dedge
Itās down but not out
sadge destiny is dedge
I doubt Sony has the funds with so many projects failing and being cancelled
Kinda sad we never got wrath of the machine in D2
Do we get to keep the season 1 rewards we unlock???
id love to see Sony PlayStation outsource the IP that way they cant loose anything and encourages other studios who choose to sign a deal to make great games
us east is back
yooooooooo im finally in the NDA server
how ?>
any xbox players in nda channel
they just add you eventually
HOW SWAY????
The issue is that Bungie is letting AlephOne work on the old games since the 90sā¦and outsourcing to some other company may be bad for that
i got in the test yesterday, but no nda channel, pretty sure like 1-3 hours ago, i was just now added to it, because i didnt see it all day today
How long did it take to add you in the nda channel after the 24 hr mark
i need access so bad
@gleaming bough why is Sekgen NuCal flavored
can you not play without signing the nda?
It stipulates that whem you agree to play the game you under MDA
24 hours lol, maybe less, but it shouldnt take long hopefully
Hey y'all dumb question but...if I am in this discord, that doesn't necessarily mean I got an invite to play the game correct? lol
i have access on xbox but i want steam access š
game is gud (is this NDA?)
I want destiny to end honestly, the team is so talented would be nice to see them on something new
No thats MDA
No 
thank you! thats what I figured


is the NDA valid after game releases?
any god gamers want to join me and my duo who just got access??
would be nice to see some brainstorming ideas for progression for a extraction loot shooter game like what the cycle frontier could have done to improve player retention
Am down. For it
Whats ypu bungie handle,
in call of duty black ops games the zombies mode is pretty repetative gameplay but players enjoy aiming for higher record wave numbers
LFG EU
NDA chat is real and it feels miraculous
send me an invite
Wish I could
I still ve no NDA chat š„
a leader board/scoreboard. I wonder if something like that could be implemented maybe umm ranked seasons were players get skins and other rewards based on performance
i think there is link where can we apply im checking
and each season theres new stuff with new objectives and a reason to return even if you got everything you wanted in the last season
š½
yeah i need the nda chat aswell sadge
... as in live service features that a live service game would REQUIRE to keep a player base not sun set like the cycle frontier
Wonāt be buying anything from bungo. They ruined destiny. They have woke garbage as staff. There greediness will be there down fall.
I was in the NDA chat and they never heard of youā¦
it sure takes a while to find a match, holy shit
Based
I just played for the first time and its so sad the the gunplay is solid and the graphics and artstyle is good, but extraction shooters are just too hard from me, you just get owned by higher level players constantly and you cant really explore at all. Such a shame that this couldve been destiny 3 š
Help me
How were you notified that you had access?
@spiral geyser help me get in lol not play test invite or nda after 48 hours
Jambijon messaged me lol
I didnāt get a notification or anything just checked discord one day and I had the channels
Iāve been searching for a game for 5+ minutes
its 1:09am here
for anyone who need acces pm me i can help
It shouldnt take more than 3 min
all my friends have closed technical test and I haven't
spoiler: i was first on request it
Dk what to say, itās not finding a game for me
I loaded into one, very quickly and then after that Iām stuck in perpetual search
how many players are in the technical test?
5k?
Clearly not many
Yeah no thatās enough of the game for me
i got access... but i keep dying to the robots wtf?
do i just have to avoid them or wtf is going on lol
shoot them
i try but they kill me first wtf
Donāt have to engage with everything and everyone
krill issue
i think im going to try and avoid ...tbh
usec ghost is imba... 1 shots me
u shoot 1 and they all come after you wtf is that worse then arc i find?
???
lol yea im not having fun at all
i dont understand this game
yes
i played the alpha and this is way more devolped since
I played the alpha and all my problems with it are still present in the tech test
I think that finalizes it, I wonāt be buying marathon
nah im on the arc raider train
idk why they even allowed me to play this i never touched destiny
its a random draw
how long did getting accepted take??
im pretty sure nothing affects your chances whatsoever
idk i checked my email today and i saw it from tuesday
LFG EU
who need nda chat dm me its so fast my friend and i we got in

WHAT I FIND AMAZING IS PEOPLE hate cod so much and destiny so much but spend money on it every expansion and game
fortnite has a crazy fast ttk lol
fortnite feels better then that an i play it
Arc raiders is unc game
arc is gonna die fast cause team ups
Alguien para hacer equipo?
Arc is gonna be big dont sleep on it
? you play an extraction shooter to survive and get loot not to kill people
its the krypton nite to prox chaT
finial someone who understands
killing is the secondary objective in an extraction shooter teaming is fun as hell
I have instant buy arc after watching a 55 min youtuber video
Only with the uncs and slow reflexers
Even turtles have their leisures in life
point and laugh at the plebians without keys š š š š š š

lf2m dm me
I think arc will do well. I think the problem is especially once it full releases 3rd person ratting will be a massive issue that can't be fixed
bro is dumb asf š
g
I'm buying arc and black ops 7 and probably marathon when if it ever comes out
I work hard for my money and gonna buy whatever I want
@kindred vigil what age is unc status kick in bro
Screw people looking in my pockets
ppl are so corny for having to anounce publically that they are purchasing a game
š
i should buy a boatā¦
scam ops 7?
And I'm buying the 100eur black ops just to high five them for dropping odb and wutang in trailers
š
You should and you should live in it š
eh many people might say whatever about this game
Hop on bro Iām on
but i hope it doesnt fail, this game seems like destiny on drugs

I'm done with the play test. Not because I don't like it. I really do! But I want to play with my friends and I want to keep my progress š can't wait for the full release. Thank you Bungie!
Jeffrey? Is that you?
pre ordered arc raiders cause bungie doesnt waot to give me a code to actually play their gameš¤·āāļø
Geoffery Epstein š
Oh thank you so I still have hope I thought it ended on the 28th
i wonder if marathon will ever do an open playtest
Hell yeah
Hopefully
yo its about to be 20:42 military time we getting on league right...

this game COULD POSSIBLY MAYBE be my most played game on steam
I low key think marathon will bomb even if it is good just because everyone hates bungie and expects it to be shit from all the controversies
You a teemo player? Oh dear...
My word, i need to just be accepted into the NDA channel so i can ask about this darn mission lol
Will see how the incentives to play are in them extraction shooters you chase loot then you're too afraid to play not to lose it, same in eve online
They need big maps and good risk management
That or everyone needs to grow 8 pairs
w loophole but no
Scary anime pic
In dune everyone stopped playing and playerbase crashed when their bases expired
People's bases expiring and loosing all their caches and bam 8 players left
is anyone having issues with audio output settings
audio settings are completely greyed out for me, cant access or change them
Wait hold the š±
anybody know where the nucal employee id?
dune, the single player game yes?
you will know in nda chat
in the only building east of whatever it says..
Anyone else not get it yet?????
No the funcom survivor thing of a few months ago
With the base building and the sand
Dune awakening?
And you like sand right?
We not cool no mo š
huh
Nah sand blows
What about wet sand tho?
Wet is fine ig
Fair fair
Xd damn
bruh fuck the NDA channel I give up trying to get access
we really trusting the people who can't make an NDA channel and ruined D2 to make a decent game?
I really like extremely hot sand
Lets check marathon tech test
Isn't that a. Single player game tho
its not even close...
lowk shouldve just made an NDA server
thatās what iāve been thinking, have a personalized one time invite in game like deadlock
No its multiplayer, well maybe it's single player now since everyone gone
Nah I don't think ARC will die, it will definitely have a drop off in players like most games though
Oh I thought it was a single player all this time wtf
Silly Neeyth
Nah its multiplayer with clans and pvpve and base building and vehicles and mining
well 1 thing is if it will die, but thinking it will die bcs of teaming is some next level delusion
And drinking bodily fluids to maintain in the desert
whatšØ
š¤¤
Yeah that's how you livin
where did all these people come from
ARC releasing soon and Marathon currently having an alpha test
Brings about many types of people
what's the best faction in marathon lol
space marines lol
What do you mean "best"?
like the one I should do the most missions for and that I should represent in the server lol
Oh, I thought you meant story-wise
It doesn't really matter, they all give good rewards
oh yeah the lore would be cool too
Do you like pink burgers? Or building stuff and making money?
Or do you like Revolution 
Don't do it, you might get a code right after
Therapy is extremely helpful. You doing okay?
More like take over everything until it's orange
I hope the guys who just let me live are in this chat you guys are awesome
all the wierdos on traxus bro
Pink burger flippers are sad like usual
No that's definitely MIDA
man I REALLY NEED to ask somequestions that would violate NDA.
I was so full of loot and they gave me a revive kit
i just want to exist with value, and honestly I made a maitake saying what I said... Im sorry
this game is hell solo
Everyone in the world has value, including you
Anyone have test access and wanna squad up. Cannot find people
as someone who plays hunt showdown constantly, i can second that
Does anyone know where the NuCAl employee ID is near overflow? cannot find it at all
how are peoples fps in this playtest?
I only play solo
found it in a destroyed nest clutch or w/e they're called
its all ive done and its horrible
Thank you
everyone has potential, value is earned.
You dont see terrorists as valued right?
Constant 240, even while streaming for a couple buddies in discord. Donāt worry, they can keep a secret lol
or anyone else who is bad towards mass amounts of people
bro said dont worry they can keep a secret
alguien para juga?
Might want to lower that FG a bit under screen refresh rate for better latency
I do a frame cap at 230
Iāll give it a try but, the game feels great so far.

how to get into nda chat?
Where the hell do you find comms chips in North or South relay?
I did the survey and didnāt get an invite
Discussion of the current test in this channel is direct breach of NDA
any xbox LFG?
Back to general chat

Where is the NDA chat?
#tech-test-nda-general-discussion they are slowly adding people to it; not sure why it's taking so long
LFG EU
i wish I was in there, i need to group up, solo que in rough for me
Well, this channel is getting wiped soon XD
I don't even bother with NDA channel
Not enough people actually read the nda
Will just give feedback at the end
anyone on steam lfg im lvl12 dm me
Or know what nda means
Naughty Data Apparel
yo hit em with a scream
Nobody reads that stuff and often it might not be legal, you'd easily sign a kidney away if it was added in there
New master chief model is beautiful
@kindred vigil
@outer patio
I read it (rather long). Its legal
me too gng
sfyl
is there anywhere to find people to play with in the test or no?
Only time an nda is illegal is when its covering an illegal action.
Now I'm having a headache trying to understand marathon
You need the nda channel. Theres a steam message thats supposed to guide you through the process.
you on xbox?
Anybody know when the play test is over?
nah pc
28th
It takes time tho
Just don't chat about it when it's fine and give you're feedback
anyone wanna play i guess, i don't wanna go through allat
You're not going to make 3 Michellin star team for a tech test
looking for 2 for squads pc please dm me
bungie cooked beans and rice my favorite
What does it taste like?
Does the steam message require you to launch the game, or is it just through the steam client? I am trying to submit a bug report because the game doesn't launch for me, it just crashes as soon as I start it. But I don't have the NDA role yet, and despite clear instructions from the FAQ to go to bungie.net forums for bug reports, the mods there keep telling me to get off the forums for anything Marathon-related and come to discord instead
braaaaaaaaap

praying everyday for the downfall of this game š».
im fartin real loud rn
Battlefield 3 released this day
LFG - Prefer to play with people over 30 - DM Me
You can do the sign up through the game or bungie.net.
Unfortunately its having issues, but you still signed an nda so make sure to cover your butt legally
is it on steam or an email or something?
what do you wanna play?
These systems for the nda chat should work better, but they dont. So its kinda tough luck. I didnt get into it yet either
finally have to time to try the beta and after a very fancy video and confirming some settings im looking at a black screen while some music plays. the chat box works but thats it.
lf1/2 to play, just started and haven't played much
im looking for 2 na pc players to play with just dm me
I can sign up for the discord NDA role through bungie.net? I already signed up for the test itself and recieved my access code on the 23rd. I have downloaded the game already, I just can't play it because it crashes
sometimes i like to go into the shower with all the lights off get on my hands a knees and pretend im a buffalo in a thunder storm
Have you tried to verify and reinstall the game?
I didnt have these issues, but do see a couple people talking about them. Could be a bad download
i dont think 2026 is a needeed release date things i seen could be fixed in a patch or 2
I'll try that then, thank you
Has anyone else wanted less and less for Christmas as they got older or am I just getting more depressed
ill try reinstalling too
im 35 and yes
Depends on if you're Santa or not
Im Santa
same and i still dont want much if anything

All I want for christmas is for someone to love me ...
What about a hoodie?
No socks?
Death to hoodies. Glory to crewnecks
I have too many socks
I also once had too many socks, but time makes fools of us all
is the test server down already?
No, 28th
Just find someone else to give gifts too, easy love š
bungie dosnt have an option to provide my discord
And wear your best bape hoodie
Kinda hard when every relationship ive been in sucked :/
Keep trying or learn to love the main hand
You add it as part of the survey.
Im trying to quit that stuff :/
There's a third option, but its expensive
constantly getting access denied lol
just sink your life into destiny. pretty much the same as an abusive relationship
Not more expensive then a dinner out
I did that. Didnt work. Any other ideas?
Yeah but you pay for the guarantee, not the chance
Fr fr
my face when people come to the marathon general chat to traumadump 
You people need God :/
Thats unfortunate. They may have sent you the option to download, but didn't give you a valid entry code. Or the code was meant for a different platform
My Dad once put me in a chokehold and threatened to put me up for adoption
š
This test is a bit messy. Looks like theres alot more people overall and that might be cuasing it
I hate how that made me laugh lol
Bungie should just concentrate on Destiny , Marathon is just generic
i cannot get into the NDA channel??
i click the link in the gaem but it does nothing
Nobody can shits broke and stuff
damn i wanna talk about it!!!!
You the new Bungie CEO?
I am just the new Bungie CEO just got promoted today
Congrats, hope you secured a big paycheck
Needs a lot of work
We at the studio believe destiny is dead water we gonna update it for the Bungie fanboys but itās not generating new money
Lol it's anything but generic
Iām loving the game so far BUT, one of my gripes so far is how āsquareā everything is. Square guns, square robots, square optics, square reticles, etc.
@timid wigeon it's Just like COD
At one point it was suggested that destiny will fund marathon development
How is that turning out?
What are you smoking?!
Horribly
@timid wigeon your mom
Its releasing, so it kinda did
Don't jinx it
Blblblblblblbl
anybody having an issue with voice chat on pc? doesn't work at all
Lot can happen until tba
At a loss for sure. But destiny also wasnt just supporting marathon. It was supporting a studio 3Ć the size of the team working on destiny.
Which is insane
People count like 3 alien motherships this year
I hear you Clem Fandango
Havenāt used my mic in-game yet but, Iāve heard other people talking. Sounds alright.
i cant connect discord to bungie.net it says failed to connect. error code 10001
Make sure you haven't accidentally muted your in-game, I did it for a few runs and thought chat was broken
Same it uses my XLR mice but wont let me use a new Output, it using my speakrs but i want it set to my output onn my go xlr and wont let me
my chat doesnt work
Im so sad this is a sweaty extract shooter
My best work so far: https://youtu.be/USEUcO1PKwU
Is that Clem fandango
I'm Also owning people in marathon with the button
same. I think tthey can hear me but i cant hear them
Warframe region chat
Voice chat is great
Were you expecting a game where people donāt try to win?
Guys I donāt think Iām getting beta access
my buddy on xbox says his voice chat works
You need to team up with Burnt Peanut
name one extraction game that doesnt have sweat culture
I had some friendly encounters in solo mode, there is hope
but PC no dice, and theres no option to choose a mic in game
There is
well, it's greyed out
Just don't want to break NDA
escape from duckov
fair point
Click on you icon on the bottom right
is there a reason they aint letting people into the closed test faster
Wouldnāt be much of a āclosed testā if they were letting āa lotā of people in itā¦
I hoped for a pve experience at least
My secondary hope was Bungie making a more accessible extract shooter
As they come I think it is
Itās kind of shit really
Disagree
Artstyle is the only non generic part
stop crying?
nobody else seeing voice chat device and audio output device greyed out?
Itās very difficult
My VOIP setting are grey input is right my output is wrong waht are u clicking
@tawdry olive @iron blaze
Skill issue https://youtu.be/7NIkFTP12cU
Does anyone know if progress carries over to main game?
That would be cool. I wouldnāt mind playing a PvE mode.
But for PvP, you gotta expect tryhards.
Maybe the full game will have better on onboarding
YUP mine is
it does not
Ive cried twice in the past week. Next?
Embed fail. Sucker loser.
i finally got the playtest
Thank you
I feel like the Mending librarian you left out in the ocean otw back to your base, all because you wanted a trident
Do any of you find it hard to tell the difference between Enemy teammates and yourself lmao got killed thinking it was my friend and it wasnāt
Your icon on the bottom right
anyone wanna do some runs?
pleeeeeeeeeeeeeease god let me in
like not in setting mainn page?
My friends who played the alpha and arc raider said arc did a lot better job at getting you into it
It's a do it yourself preview
its a qustion mark or settings?
What do I do if I have the install for Xbox but I selected PC when I signed up?
Me to the giant cheesewheel
It depends on how high the action, but if they donāt have an indicator then you attack.
Not in settings
My experience with marathon is they drop you in wnd say lol figure it out have fun
Yah Iām not doing that.
want me to DM you to ask? is that allowed lol
Welcome to extraction shooters
valid
It is so easy to the point where it becomes kinda difficult. You can be blind and deaf and still laser a person across the map in your first round ever playing with an SMG and along with the fast TTK it makes it so anyone no matter how bad at the game will instakill you if they see you out of imidiate cover
I would hope they can add a feature to maybe change their color for their names or something
This game Shits on Arc raiders imo
LF for some runners
Why? Is it beneath you?
Perchance.
as of rn i think arc is something im more instrested in
Nah Iām just too busy with ur mom beneath me.
i need team m8s to play with. dm me
A wild mom joke appears, you must be born in the 50s
Chill boys, we're all friends here.
he got you so bad you need a new copy of Black Ops 7
Maybe
But even if I was, this uncs got more skill in a skin flake than your entire existence.
its quickly turning into a subreddit in here
This is friendly banter, it actually hides secret marathon NDA information
nah fuck you we beefing now š”
Idk š¤·āāļø I play shooters consistently and because there is no test range or way to practice your kit and abilities my PvP fights have felt like dice rolls
Does he have a better gun or shield?
Even when I get the first shot and donāt miss they can turn around and melt me with better gear.
To add on to this finding weapons and ammo feels difficult. I had a run I killed 2 players, ran outta ammo. Couldnāt loot them due to ai. Ran away only to get melted by ai
so sick of all this positivity in my complaining chat
Which is fine but I feel like there should be like ātiersā of runs
im looking for someone to play with pc na dm me
Strategy plays a lot into success with pvp no matter your situation fr.
You may need a GF
need a Torta
got a space for one more
Tortellini
they made a lot of (bad) changes witth game balance.
Skill issue
I wouldn't consider it bad
Not bad at all
Bungie's gunplay always #1
previous tech test was easer to progres
Different, maybe not better, but not strictly worse
838936160 - add me on steam for runs
need one more team m8 dm me
Creamy buttery gunplay, and marathon is no exception here.
I kinda disagree for marathon the gunplay feels more like apex than a bungie game, but maybe that's just me
marathon PS5 controller when?
how often are they rolling invites out cause my friend has been waiting and its getting a little ridiculous
I mean Iād buy it
Servers are down in <3 days so probably not any more invites
Daily ish
anyone tryna play?

It is better than I expected, but can't see the longevity of the game. The maps are lacking in dynamic events, I want roaming bosses and random POIs that are sometimes fortified with more enemies, a mini boss and a loot room. Also I think it needs exotic style guns not mods. The 1 thing that Bungie never messed up was the design/graphical design of exotics, why not use this rarity in marathon too. Think some uniqueness to the rare guns would make the loot pool way more exiting.
How many groups load in to the map? or how many players?
Itās an early playtest and you should keep these words to NDA areas
Ts is not about the NDA playtest... it is about what is planned for the game that they have said themselves, or rather what is not planned
Gents this is prob a dumb question but NDA says no streaming does this also mean pvt discord calls? Friends keep asking me to stream marathon in a pvt call
I was thinking the same, maybe there's thing to come with the full version.
the matchmaking screen is so annoying, it was interesting at first but after many hours I cant stand it
None streaming.zero.
How many teams are there in each match?
alright thank you
Looking for one to do some runs hmu in dm
I mean as of planned content for release this does not seem to be the case. I believe they overestimated the success of the game on announcement because they said that they "don't want to release the alien guns and enemies for launch because then the future content would not seem as cool"
Too tiny for random bosses and events so far
As D2 pvp player, or former player, MArathon isnt going to be the game to bring me back. Ill enjoy the playtest, but this could have been a mode in destiny lol
Anyone know how many people on the map at a given time?
#discord-role-assistance get your nda access sorted and talk about such matters where they belong.
LFG ?
Destiny is the past, my friend.
Yeah I partially agree, but it also defends on the scope of the bosses and event. That maps are definently too small, but you can make something out of it. Have 1 random POI in like 10-20% of matches have a fortified version with more barricades and all other things mentioned
will do thanks
I just wish at least one of my friends got access, I get it's a closed test... queueing with randoms just isn't the experience I'm looking forward to, it's a nice option when the squad isn't around
Best of anything like that is getting one of the higher level ai randomly spawned or when the risk increases, but map size seems to me to be the large constraint for anything roaming or events
Fixed area spawns with like 2 escalations
The rate at which my excitement for this game diminishes for every day that I donāt get into the test is concerning
I mean the random event can be as little as an enemy somehow has gotten it's hand on an alien gun meaning it might be worth risking clearing the location just to kill that 1 enemy
Sure thing+
to bad the pvp dev team was sacrafised for this trash lol
I got the invite yesterday, what are the rules for the NDA?
atm seems to be just patrolling and roaming the bases for peeps doesn't seem to have much of a purpose other than that yet
But yeah I'd be enjoying it more if they searched for loot, found great loot worth to chase
Dont stream AT ALL, not even discord and stuff is one lol
We still waiting on access to the NDA chat? Donāt see it yet
Are they still releasing more participants to the playtest?
Until the game has launched?
yessir
Asked the same thing earlier cause ive got like 5 buddy's asking me to stream in a pvt call atm lol
Tiny Map extraction shooters loop is, join in, ignore sneak past ai, loot extract
Read the NDA maybe?
did you?
I know in general what a Non Disclosure Agreement entails
Yeah I would not do that
Inquire within #discord-role-assistance
no streaming or discussing anything outside of the #tech-test-nda-general-discussion
3 2 1
i need a proper 3 stack this shit sucks without one
Fastest way for reach season lv15 ?
NDA to discuss details
if only people were being given access to the NDA channel aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Scav
bummed to not receive a code for the 2nd time. My steam account has a ton of games on it.. my rig is mid to high range for this game.. I've played, given money to, supported Bungie as a company for like.. over half my life lol I know, womp womp, first world problems, that's all true, still, especially after the latest debacle, it's like "okay, I was on the fence before, but since you're just not gonna let me even try your game, guess I'll continue with my plan to just dive into Arc Raiders."
š š
Arc Raiders out in 5 days, game will have it's life cycle before Marathons release date is even announced 
Matchmaking is unbearable man lol
1 thing I love about Tarkov is the scav loot pool, I think marathon should have these tiny % very rare drops to be possible to find on even just the grunt enemies, would make grunts exiting to loot rather than feeling like a waste of ammo
How you doin peggydoo
NDA brother #tech-test-nda-general-discussion
Man I hope not, but who knows. One thing I do know, I'll probably still buy the premium cuckboy dommy mommy extra drippy edition preorder of Marathon when it comes out, but I'm allowed to be salty right now, okay? I just wanna play the game and give some feedback.
LF1m to do some good runs, high level
is the postal barcode on the menus different for each player?
it seems like another way to keep people from sharing videos and stuff
Thereās a lot of meta data buried in the game that gives everything about you away
Do yall play as rook
when will we get pimps at sea
oh i bet, i just liked that this one fit the vibe of the game better than the numbers on the upper left
Weāve seen old accounts permabanned for just a tiny stream, post, or āaccidentalā steam image share.
what a waste of an account
Real
anyone on steam lfg lvl10+ dm me
My fav is āI would not have done it had I known!ā
⦠brƶther itās in the nda you agreeeed to
also thought i was in the nda general
Oops nope
Am i the only one that doesnt like the movement of the Game? It just feels slow af and stuck
spawning in be like
i like it way better than the movement spammy COD multiplayer
cod movement is good
Toast chee crackers are amazing
nah, i mean, i wouldnt like COD movement but Apex Legends or The Finals movement for marathon would be better than just running
cod movement is good i think this game needs it since it has a heat bar
I donāt have access to it.
can anyone help me get NuCal ID quest done?
If your in the play test hit up #discord-role-assistance
WHAT ARE THEY DOING ????????????????????????????????????
i like the cheese ones
ai are fine hit head shots
i agree
then you have to wait to talk about NDA stuff there mods do watch this chat just a heads up dont want you to get banned is all
DEVS LOWKEY SLOW ????????????????????????????????????????????
LF1m to do some good runs, high level
these types of p[layers ruin games the ai isnt as even bad as arc
When is the nda discord opening up
Yassss. Iām actually eating one of those packs right now
Peggyboo
jump at it and u climb its ez
its open they just been slow
w^ yeah he troiling now
Wyd @iron blaze
Going on 4 days with no invite to beta still.... Can they just make this open beta now?
Not with that attitude
*alpha
pipe dowm
no attention at home
Sup people š
it's not bad
I feel your pain, literally all of my friends, even one who applied later then me, got in.
LF 3rd DM me
is there anything i can do to be more likely to do the playtest?
LF1 dm
just pray
nope
itās like performing CPR on someone you know isnāt going to make it
lol bet
bungie obviously doesnt want us to play their game so i'll just play arc raiders next week
Same. One of my friends applied last night and already got a code. Played one game and isn't playing it now. While I'm over here been waiting for Steam to give me a code and still nothing.
k?
Yep, same. I would literally be grinding that shit if I had it, and 2 of them barely tried it.
i didn't got in in the first test, just unlucky
sick NDA u signed
lol
WHERE ARE THE NDA CHANNELS????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
fe
LF1 for some runs
BUMGIE actually slow no lie
right there
u in?
it says no access
I DONT HAVE MY ROLE
It looks kind of like Cycle Frontier kind of graphics and play style n was hoping it'd atleast buy me time until Arc.
nice
can a mod give me the role like right now its been 3 days
ok? you still cant post NDA like?
all people complaining about nda channel made somethnig wrong, me included xD
I think it is fine honestly, think the loot pool is gonna be boring for launch however and thats half the game in extraction shooters
ok?????????????????????????????? I THOUGHT ITS AN NDA CHANNEL
NAhhhhhh, forreal some random MOD give me my role like right now or Imma cancel this game
no joke
welp, gonna keep playing, no biggies if im not in the channel yet.
I blew up the world trade center when I didn't get my role
So friends are saying the game crashes a ton. 4-5 crashes just going through tutorial. Anyone else have "Friends" saying the samething and any fix "They" mightve said?

i didnt last beta but this beta i have its downloading rn
I have a question about game setting related to voice chat but i dont know if asking for help breaks nda
šØ
@glacial belfry is it true you're a goofy goober?
Probably. Try to ask in nda channel if possible
true and real
A mad man
There's no nda channel for me to ask in š
i sent you a dm
omg fuck the gun design what dumbass decided to make all guns look the same
bro nda, and you might need glasses
actual braindead dumbass
you do realize the guns are in the trailer right?
Why are we swearing so much
Why would someone playing extraction shooters do that?
for all i know they might add guns that are not a brick but that is not a fucking spoiler lmao how are people this dense
Ikr...it's a pg-13 media...
BRO THE MENU MUSIC IS TOUGH!!!
always some very nice and cool person tryna police people about the NDA
how many you get yet? š£
got scared xD+
š I remembered that these are the same people who gave me a timeout simply for saying "why is there so much furry art in the marathon art chat š "
wheres the NDA chat
I did the thing with the survey and have been acceptedd before the opening of the tech test. I thought that would get me in nda channel for feednack but nothing. Can mods please investigate, im literally playin rn
if you doesn't see it , it doesn't exist
got you
ive had access to the test for 3 days now and still no NDA chat :( i think they could improve on that front lol
i wonder what fraction i should join lol
1/8
prego
you dont have nda channel? š«
9 3/4
Anyone around with access thats pretty far in the quest line? Im stuck and need help xD
nope
My plan was to ddrop feeddback on the go but seems like i should have used notepad
Playtest without feedback, power move from bungie must say
Can I haz NDA chat?
There are feedback u just havenāt been invited to the cool club
ts not tuff
Can I have access to NDA channel. I have feedback about the game
No more
Seems like NDA access is more difficult than getting game access
#discord-role-assistance get help here
a little of venting over here but why is every bungie/destiny hater argument "have not played in years/months I hope this game dies"
Level 10+ LFG dm me for inv
just saying, if I had access to this rn I'd hop off the finals in a heartbeat to go grind that out like all weekend lol
š®
Theyre missing out ngl
can i ask questions about the actual in-game or will i get nuked
every post from a destiny info gets the "have not played in years not worth my time" like sure bud then why you posting every time bungie anounces anything about d2
Wait do we get paid to play test?
I can only imagine them people crying when they post stuff like that
nope but people would pay to get into the test I'm sure
lol I heard that we were going to get paid in gift cards to play test
missinformation spreaded succesfully I guess
So far the game is pretty boring ngl the ui is terribleš
lol yeah
careful with what you say, you are under an nda
Oh yeah I forgot
hey ty , just sent a request.
I can see why they made us sign an nda
this playtest was a joke
bro how long am i gonna be connecting for?
UI philisophy is terrible* there you go now it does not go under NDA
im trying to do a contract from CyAc but i cant find the ID from a employee on North
someone can help me?
I'm currently playing but I'll keep my thoughts to myself
The ui of āotherā games is terrible especially how pixalated and unreadable things are
this is the way
Well I mean the style of the UI is just bad this is known from non NDA playtest and gameplay reveal, sure they might change it for launch but lets be real they wont
You can private message me and I can ask. I'm not under NDA until I get access to the game
āSome companies should really try to invest in making the game better instead of just searching for ways to make moneyā
LFG Dm me for inv
Destiny 2 is a peak game when you buy all the expansion packs for 20$
it still aint
Itās so much fun lmao
forsaken was peak to me
I just want a release date to see if I buy renegades or marathon
10% of the fun it used to be
Wait is renegades a copy of Star Wars or are they working with them
Cuz it looks so much like itās gonna get a copyright
yeah, idk, the hate back in april seemed so targeted and aggressive. Lots of people seeming to want the game to fail .. because .. ???
Honestly I do wonder what the reception to this game would be if they didnāt push the extraction shooter genre so much in the marketing. Since theyāve only been a few popular extraction shooters the definition of what it is in the culture is so narrow and it invites aggressive comparison. Like nobody can experiment with the genre or change things for some reason.
Did u get the expansion packs?
I think itās the next part in the storyline
for u guys those the loading connecting screen takes long for you guys ??
I'm pretty sure the NDA is just because of the Art they took off the artist for the game. Probably don't know if it's all been taken out from the game yet.
Not really just a whole lot of animation happening
They deleted the best expansions from the game, that I paid for
I donāt think thatās it. Iām almost certain theyāve done a full art sweep by now, would have been top priority
I thought it was because some āother gamesā are just not good and will def get hate
where am i supposed to get unstable compounds
Really? Which ones
Ok, just curious as streamers would have hay day with Marathon if they could stream it. And all I've heard is there wasn't many changes since the previous playtest
bro its just saying connecting and doing this animation
Gunplayās good and aesthetically the gameās immaculate, everything else tho is eh
Especially its monetization/how itās handled expansions
Sure, we wonāt know for sure without direct word from them. I think this one is NDA because the reception to the previous one was mixed + the artwork issues. They seem to be a lot more cautious on what they show publicly and want the next reveal to hit hard and be positive
how long those this conneting take ??
I really wish I could play! Itās not a great fan experience to know thousands can play and not you because of random chance ..
Yeah but the artwork issue would've been a bigger issue if it wasn't caught until release either. If they would''ve caught it at the beginning then it would've been easier to remove then later on in the build. Atleast that's my thought on it as more publicity the better. Consider it free advertisment.
the server is unstable af
Wait nvm
Not nda chat
am i allowed to talk about the game wth my friends
No
not unless theyāve also been invited and signed the nda
I think they just want the bigger audience to get a feel for how much the game will change when it launches. People don't get as hype for drip feeding updates

But honestly probs just a mix of all things ahahah

I'm from Halo days, to destiny and destiny 2 days. Bungie account since 2008 with still no invite.
JESUS CHRIST ADD ME TO NDA CHANNEL, I WAS INVITED 3 DAYS AGO
same
š
i think there's no preference.
Inquire here #discord-role-assistance
Assumed entitlement will make me God
can you not play without being in the NDA channel?
You can
Yeah
so then why are ppl crying about the nda channel
You just can't talk about it on any channel other than nda
you can just don't say anything of it
But you still gotta obey the nda channels or not
Ik it's just random as my friends who applied through steam got an invite already even though they put in the request 2 days ago. Definitely skipping through the list
ohhh okay
is there any reason why people who are not in the nda channel yet can join a group chat together? I donāt see why not
You can talk to your therapist about it though if you need someone to talk to
They want to talk about the game. It's natural. I remember showing the game to everyone when the trailer first dropped š
and I still haven't the order is weird. I have a lot of play time for all the extraction shooters on the market, Destiny 1 and 2, and plenty of other shooters. So it isn't just raw time they care for either.
youāll just want to be sure whoever is in that chat actually signed the nda, so thereās risk there for sure
ive had a bungie account since CE, they skipped me the first 2 tests
are beta tests still accepting sign ups?
Wait destiny is an extraction shooter?
really kind of lame using discord as the feedback mechanism. should just have an in-game feedback button. still dont have access to NDA discord, and i think im done with the game and just want to send my NDA feedback before it gets stale.
notice the , <- it is a list lol
supposedly if you join through steam now youāll be in the pool for invites over the next few days
anyone doing some pvp lobbies? semi high level?
were the invites to the NDA channel just complete BS or what? been waiting since Tues
Iām almost certain for anyone whoās not in the nda channel yet, youāll get a post test survey to share your thoughts when itās over
You will get a message in-game.

forsaken, the original campaign and like 4 more of varying quality, but they were my favorites

I just want a lick of play time with my friends before this game disappears for 4-5 months lol.
anyone lf1? down to pvp
he's clipping marathon! burn him!
its been connecting for like 5 min

Heās not the only one
Casual NuCal glaze tyty
