🗣marathon-general-chat

[charred snow]

No. It will be available then for everyone but there will be an open beta before that.

[worn kelp]

yea. i knew theres one before launch. just trying to nail down the date, as i want some of the boys to try it.

[open remnant]

It's very addictive

[edgy creek]

[teal condor]

Defos some will be pay to win calling it now

[indigo summit]

I watched it the first time without headphones and went cool audio stuff whatever but I rewatched it with them and was like holy moly

[nimble canyon]

All of these unskinned coming out the woodwork

[unkempt parcel]

I feel like Nier Automa turned out to be such a unique experience with one of the best ost ever that they can’t replicate it

[pearl acorn]

put notifs for the marathon news channel if anything

[bitter halo]

when is the open beta ?

[teal condor]

Talking about ost

[unkempt parcel]

@nimble canyon have you played clair obscur?

[nimble canyon]

Charter awaits you with open arms.

[teal condor]

Marathon official OST on Spotify when

[nimble canyon]

Yes, I found it incredible.

[charred snow]

We don't know. Only that it will be before release on March 5th.

[indigo summit]

That's what I'm saying

It sounds incredible

[bitter halo]

oh , fire ty tho

[unkempt parcel]

I wholeheartedly agree

[nimble canyon]

That game made me cry and feel things.

[open remnant]

This game might be the reason why I invest in a proper surround sound system lol

[nimble canyon]

I became so attached to the characters.

Weekend before

[celest plover]

@nimble canyon makes me wish FF would go back, if only briefly, to how their games were.

[indigo summit]

I wanna play it but I know for a fact it's not gonna click with me

[unkempt parcel]

I really wanted Grimes to collab with Marathon. Her new song Artificial Angels I really like

[teal condor]

There's fan made stuff but I need them raw originals to be on Spotify asap

[charred snow]

Might not necessarily be the very weekend before though.

[teal condor]

Someone tag Bungo

[indigo summit]

I want marathon to collab with me and gimme a free copy

[nimble canyon]

Ugh. Spotify shoving AI dross in my discovery queue again.

This isn't music. It's ear slop.

[unkempt parcel]

"Franfran Used To Be All 'Wheeee!' But Now He's All 'Whooo!'"

[tacit kiln]

wait will there eventually be aliens in the game?!

[nimble canyon]

Yes

One of them was already shown

[open remnant]

No eventually about it 😂

[unkempt parcel]

Aliens v Predator x Marathon

[indigo summit]

There's at least one in cryo

[tacit kiln]

holy

[nimble canyon]

We believe they're on the marathon not on the colony itself

Which explains a lot given where the invasion began.

[void gull]

this and ffxv were the first games i ever actually cried to

[celest plover]

What all other aliens are there? I'm unfamiliar with the world of Marathon.

[charred snow]

Dek (pointing at Compiler): Kalisk?

[teal condor]

As a Mexican playing the game I can confirm I'll be there

[indigo summit]

I know vague marathon lore but also this is a kinda reboot so I'm not sure how much of it is applicable

[unkempt parcel]

Bless your cotton socks

[open remnant]

Read up on some marathon lore from the old games and you'll get a good idea of what to expect in terms of aliens

[indigo summit]

Spiritfarer

That game punches my heart

[stuck badge]

Where/how do I do the handshake command?

[nimble canyon]

There's a fair few alien types, there's a bunch of fan websites that can provide you information on all of them

[celest plover]

Any in particular you can recommend?

[open remnant]

I can see this game being insane in a couple years time

[indigo summit]

There's probably a fandom wiki but I refuse to use fandom on principle

[teal condor]

Oh wait a minute important question. Will playing the marathon trilogy enrich my experience?

Yes or no

[indigo summit]

A little?

I wouldn't know tbf I haven't played them

[tacit kiln]

i love aliens a mix of aliens and robots to shoot would be so cool

[void gull]

i have plans to run them over the weekend anyway to get an idea of what to expect on a baseline

[nimble canyon]

Depends how much you like the world building and wished to understand what came before.

[open remnant]

I just read up on the lore from them, they're very old games and I'm not a retrogamer so didn't bother playing them. Each to their own though, heard they're fun

[indigo summit]

But I feel like Bungie is going into this expecting 99% of the player base to know borderline nothing about the ogs

[fathom lichen]

Has it been revealed what time the game will become playable on the 5th of march?

[void gull]

catering to the newgens

[void gull]

id assume midnight launch

[teal condor]

The thing is I gotta pick, play the trilogy or condition myself to Bungie gunplay in D2

[charred snow]

With an open playtest on a weekend beforehand.

[void gull]

oh yeah im gonna have to play destiny huh..

[indigo summit]

I mean I guess, there'll probably be plenty of fun Easter eggs/references that new players might not catch though

[void gull]

man i havent touched this game in years

[nimble canyon]

There's the S'pht, the Pfhor and the S'pht'Kr being a main clan of the S'pht

[fervent patrol]

where do you get the marathon frame

[indigo summit]

Classic SciFi names

[nimble canyon]

But the S'pht have their own clans.

[indigo summit]

So many apostrophes 😭

[void gull]

it was from the first trailer

[versed swan]

Can someone explain the contracts to me please are they all a standard format? Are they all completed already?

[void gull]

i still have it in my nitro inventory

i just dont have nitro..

[teal condor]

Someone play the trilogy and give me a TLDR

[open remnant]

Contracts in-game or the ARG?

[unkempt parcel]

Sounds like a mix between ancient Egyptian and Greek

[versed swan]

The ARG

[nimble canyon]

The Jjaro bioengineered the S'pht they're heavily cybernetic.

[versed swan]

Whatever the discord thing is

[indigo summit]

I think you go out and do ARG stuff to find codes and put them in for points, I have no clue what said points do or where to get like any of the codes though

[celest plover]

These names are wild lol

[versed swan]

Also I got the collectors edition can I use the code now if you’re saying “in game”?

[indigo summit]

I'm sure you could just look it up if you're interested

[unkempt parcel]

What’s arg

[nimble canyon]

There are so many people that will be better at this than me on YouTube. They can summarize things for you.

[nimble canyon]

Alternative reality game.

[open remnant]

Would be cool if the ARG points convert to items or credits in the game when it releases. Would be a nice little headstart

[nimble canyon]

Aliens.

[versed swan]

The arg is the contracts in the discord channel above right?

[indigo summit]

Alternate reality game, a while ago they did one to reveal the first Vidoc release date across a bunch of websites and codes and such, if your interested Roflwaffles on YouTube has a pretty good video going over it all

[nimble canyon]

Pfhor aren't very nice. They're alien slavers.

[torpid sundial]

I hope we are gettin an open beta like late Feb

[teal condor]

There that's it, the trilogy summed up. I'm caught up now thanks.

[indigo summit]

And it seems another one is starting up with the whole new website

[open remnant]

Maybe our DAC level determines what free item we get when we enter the game

[jaunty crystal]

https://marathon.bungie.org/story/ have fun

[nimble canyon]

Wheeze

[versed swan]

I hope the closed beta tests don’t give those players exclusive skins cuz I didn’t know this game was a thing a year ago 😭

[indigo summit]

That's where you put in codes from the arg yes

It revealed a bunch of lore stuff too, mostly involving MIDA and the UESC

[torpid sundial]

probably will have a closed early access to an open beta

[versed swan]

I’m so mad that I didn’t know ab THE FINALS until after 6 seasons cuz the diamond M11 skin is honestly a gem

[versed swan]

Then they must require a certain format for the codes and that’s honestly potentially more difficult to figure out than the codes themselves lowkey

[torpid sundial]

like I just want a chance to have my friends try it with me b4 launch to see if I can get them to buy it

[versed swan]

collectors edition cough

😂

[open remnant]

I'm so tempted to buy the collectors edition

[indigo summit]

I kinda hate when they do stuff like that, at least when it's a whole skin that's sick, if it's just a weapon charm or an emblem or something I dont mind nearly as much

[torpid sundial]

I dont think ill ever get a collectors edition again after I got the Doom 2016 and Halo 5 collectors, just not worth it

[indigo summit]

Yeah it's a whole thing, I haven't done it but the arg was pretty awesome

[torpid sundial]

especially with no actual game in the box

[indigo summit]

I wasn't there for it but it looked sick

[versed swan]

It’s like a whole bunch of stuff plus a 1/6 scale figurine of the thief plus a deluxe game code

[indigo summit]

It's clean frfr

[torpid sundial]

I do like the pistol skin

you get with the pre-ordeer

[open remnant]

Skins, Figurine, hologram and ofc the worm. I kinda need it

[versed swan]

Who was that YouTuber again xenon? Rfloo… something

[torpid sundial]

tho im just gonna wait till like the 1st of march to pre-order

[teal condor]

Imma just tell grok to sum the story omw home

[indigo summit]

Honestly the problem with collector editions for me is usually the tiny postcards that are in literally all of them, because I wanna frame them but that's like a whole other process

They look awesome though

[indigo summit]

Roflwaffles

[versed swan]

“Roflwaffles”

Yep thank you

[indigo summit]

Just look up marathon arg explained on yt and the vid should show up

It's pretty in depth

Plus the lore and world building is awesome

I'm a sucker for that kind of thing, even if I'm way too stupid to ever get involved

[celest plover]

The voice cast for this game is amazing so curious who's all gonna be who

[jade furnace]

You did not just spill blasphemy on my OG zombies YouTuber

[versed swan]

Huh

[indigo summit]

I saw from some random comment somewhere so don't quote me on literally anything ever that Ben Starr is Durandal

[livid ledge]

Spider bite

[indigo summit]

No clue who anyone else is though

I'd probably recognize a couple by the voice but I'm not sure

I recognize Darin DePaul and Fred Tatascoire and a few others

Mostly just cause they're both in overwatch 😭

[livid ledge]

I don’t think you know spider bite

[jade furnace]

Quarter Pounder will make me god

[livid ledge]

…….wut?

[indigo summit]

Yum yum I love my NuCaloric burger juice

[void gull]

Escape will make me dog

[copper fossil]

True..

[jade furnace]

Dog will mark me

Make*

[livid ledge]

…..

[indigo summit]

"Mouth, Friend mouth" still kills me btw

[celest plover]

That shit was hilarious 😂

[indigo summit]

Mad is the sword who severed tomorrow

[frail remnant]

Hey devs do a collab with Epic Games Store I'll pre order there if you get a exclusive fortnite skin

[indigo summit]

They already did a destiny collab so who knows

[frail remnant]

Yeah im hoping

[spare ledge]

what does that have to do with a Fortnite collab

[obsidian wolf]

Yo has anyone played TTRPG before

[void gull]

That would be so fun but id have to spend money on the epic games store

Which is evil

[indigo summit]

Well they're both Bungie so

[frail remnant]

I know but the cash back is a good incentive on the EGS

[obsidian wolf]

I made a tabletop roleplaying version of Marathon if we have any DM in the server

[open remnant]

Unpopular opinion: I don't like collabs with other games with totally different universes and lore. Think it takes away from the games immersion

[indigo summit]

There's so much sick graffiti and decals in this game I low-key wanna get tattooed

[spare ledge]

Destiny and marathon sure but not Fortnite 😭

[grand whale]

Well I found out that boom but replace b with g is a timable offense

[frail remnant]

Still waiting for Cayde6 in fortnite lol

[jaunty crystal]

arc raiders chat is not doing well tf happened there?

[warm granite]

same man. sadly it nets more sales so companies keep doing it

[indigo summit]

I'm saying Bungie has already done a collab with fortnite when they added the Destiny skins so it'd probably be easier to do another crossover with Bungie

[teal condor]

I only like collabs that make sense

[frail remnant]

Hey fortnite is a better collab than COD adding Nikki Minaj lmao

[teal condor]

Like Star Wars and Destiny made sense

[wintry owl]

Has anyone gotten anything on who Roger Clark is playing?

[warm granite]

they watched the marathon trailer

[indigo summit]

Mainly the "Mad is the sword who severed tomorrow" one

[grand whale]

Depends on the game

[warm granite]

im jk i like arc but i only bought it was a stopgap waiting for marathon. when marathon drops ill uninstall arc and never play it again

[edgy socket]

If we’re talking collabs, in the April alpha someone found strings pertaining to a Helldivers 2 collab

[open remnant]

They'll be fine. Likely just some doom mongering because of Marathons imminent launch. I think both games will do well. Like PUBG and Apex, same genre, very different games

[wintry owl]

Also they’ve been plague with cheating issues and slow balancing changes from Embark, the honeymoon period is ending.

[frail remnant]

Oo helldivers 2 I would be down for that collab

[edgy socket]

Would’ve been really simple I think probably just a gun charm and weapon skins

[indigo summit]

I don't mind a shooter crossing over with a shooter it's mostly stuff like Cardi B in CoD that I take issue with

[warm granite]

yeah arc honestly the lack of player abilities and too few weapons, it got boring for me after like 30 hours or so, everyone converges on the same builds. marathon i got 90 hours in two playtests so....yeah. viewing it primarily as a pvp player

[jaunty crystal]

yea surely the tourists struggling with FOMO

[frail remnant]

Fr

[indigo summit]

Fortnite kinda gets a pass at this point

[warm granite]

you mean you dont like your tim the tatman twitch streamer skin in your shooter?

[teal condor]

Nah bro celebrities have no role to play in collabs, unless is voice acting a story character

[indigo summit]

It can cross over with whatever and it kinda works

[indigo summit]

Agree

[void gull]

Theres like 4 destiny fort skins already

[open remnant]

I want Marathon to develop it's own lore

[indigo summit]

The lore looks promising

[teal condor]

Fort is just a verse meme at this point and they give access to the youth to something they wouldn't have been able to experience on their own.

[wintry owl]

but when are marathon fort skins?

[charred snow]

What is a Fortnite if not a miserable pile of crossovers? 🤣

(jk, just a lil Castlevania ref)

[wintry owl]

buddy do I have an old school Doom-like trilogy for you!!

[teal condor]

So many young people heard Daft Punk for the first time during their collab

[indigo summit]

Every time I think of the lore I think of the sick graffiti and I get hard again

[warm granite]

you know what i dunked on fortnite for a long time but then i tried it, credit is due where credit is due, that game is insanely optimized and has pretty much no bugs which i praise in this day and age

[open remnant]

I still can't get over Palpatines return being revealed in Fortnite before anywhere else 😅 just shows how trash the sequels are and how very little regard they have for the franchise

[warm granite]

i dont play it but i can respect that game

[jaunty crystal]

what is a MAN?

[void gull]

What is a man if bot a miserable pile of secrets(I think)

[wintry owl]

I love the one I saw someone was trying to write THANK GOD ITS YOU over and over and spelling it wrong each time

[void gull]

Mhm

[indigo summit]

It's awesome

[grand whale]

Imagine mrbeast or the president doing a 360 no scope tho

[teal condor]

Idk man graffiti feeling hella corpo now even Tesla is doing it

[plain tree]

this server used to be about marathon?

[indigo summit]

I love that they're all different styles too

They're clearly done by different ppl

I feel like sometimes graffiti textures just look the same everywhere but they're all so unique

[jade furnace]

Can we get the devs to add Chili cheese fries from Del Taco to the game?!? Hungry asf rn

[void gull]

Kizuna ai full peice peanut butter edit clips snoop dogg and then does the tootsie slide

[indigo summit]

And they're all apparently cool enough to be POIs which is neat

[grand whale]

I mean it’s an art form so not too surprised cyberpunk universe is lowkey part of the corporate universe even tho it’s speaking out against it

[teal condor]

Never thought of it that way

[vestal cedar]

@magic kiln did you get your steam code resolved? I’m also having the same issue

[mortal plume]

I’m so pumped for the actual marathon map. The other maps were so good but I need to see what’s on that ship.

[wintry owl]

You’d love NuCaloric

[grand whale]

All art end up being for profit

[indigo summit]

I'm so curious because they really haven't shown much

[grand whale]

Idc im not some revolutionary guy

[indigo summit]

Especially now that they've released a website that just has all the maps but the ship

[inland hatch]

holy cow arc raiders patch notes today so small. tf are they even doing

[void gull]

Not getting my $30 thats for sure

[warm granite]

i may as well uninstall it now, i have zero desire to play it knowing marathon is coming in a month and a half

was always my plan anyway

[jovial chasm]

No physical copy for a game as stylistic as this is fucking stupid, especially with no art book on the horizon

[grand whale]

Uninstalled it after upgrading all work benches and killing a queen once only fun thing in the game really

[void gull]

Lowkey yeah

I wouldve loved steelbooks

[dreamy forge]

I haven't touched Arc in two months. I'm done with it.

[grand whale]

U da real physical copy

[dreamy forge]

I went to Hunt 1896

[grand whale]

People say hunt is bad but it looks good imo never tried it

[inland hatch]

i haven’t played hunt in ages. i should give it another go

it was fun back in the day

[open remnant]

How do I join Sekiguchi?

[warm granite]

im the opposite, i hate physical goodies now because it just is clutter after a while

[bronze helm]

It’s changed a lot through the years. It’s pretty fun I’d say.

[warm granite]

but yeah would have been a nice option to offer

[teal condor]

100%

[void gull]

I just picked it un the roles channel

[tulip sedge]

damn Resident Evil 9 releases a week before that...

darn it!!

[limpid geode]

Anyone have a link to a good review of this game? Everything I see looks mid

[teal condor]

Legit just changed my view on graffiti versus corpo

[void gull]

Im waiting on a publisher sale for re9

Arc comes first

[tulip sedge]

good for you

[inland hatch]

consider yourself skinned

[dreamy forge]

I only recently started playing it, but it's pretty good. I like the clue mechanic. It kinda pushes the players together for a good ole time

[void gull]

Actually no it doesn't

[warm granite]

if you liked the cycle frontier and/or dark and darker, you'll probably like this game (it is similar to them in ways). if you didnt like them, pass

[void gull]

WHERED MY SKIN GO

[open remnant]

Sekiguchi is the worm right?

[indigo summit]

Praise charter

[grand whale]

Arc raiders and marathon really really made me realize gamers don’t care at all about art direction, all they care about is realistic/moderny art direction which really sucks that people are still at such a low stage when understanding art

[jovial chasm]

God y'all they could've had a nice clear plastic slip cover for a white case that would've worked perfectly in tandem with the artstyle in game.

[inland hatch]

welcome to bloodshed.

[open remnant]

They skinned you. They did the same to me 😔

[coral hamlet]

Sekgen

[limpid geode]

Never played either 😭

[indigo summit]

I genuinely can't choose, they all look amazing

[bronze helm]

Well damn

[mystic burrow]

march 5th

[gleaming bough]

Yeah

[void gull]

What if I just played all of them

[grand whale]

People that say that marathon looks cartoony or like Fortnite piss me off so bad then proceed to say arc raiders looks good✌🏾💔🥹

[normal dawn]

We're back chat, got some breakfast sandwiches 🥪

[inland hatch]

rook

[thorny wigeon]

word but for me gonna have to be destroyer or thief

[dense goblet]

This was a pointless response lol

[warm granite]

it aint gonna be a bad game, it aint going to be a life changing game. it will be pretty solid but whether you like it or not will hinge a lot on your preferences for the aesthetics and whether you like extraction shooters. the game mechanics themselves, bungie is solid

[normal dawn]

Bruh

[grand whale]

Thief because I’m a hoodlum thug irl

[thorny wigeon]

Doa if i see u

[random meteor]

Hello everyone

[bronze helm]

Arc Raiders looks like the most boring turd I’ve ever seen

[inland hatch]

ur just another loot box buddy

[grand whale]

Arachne hasn’t skinned u yet lucky

[warm granite]

i can at least say the game is pretty stable in terms of client and network performance

[limpid geode]

I love arc raiders so just curious what the differences are.. I’ll check YouTube for some reviews

[sullen verge]

the problem with arc is its high risk low reward

[warm granite]

ive played both ill summarize

[void gull]

Lwk I havent looked into them

[grand whale]

I spent about 120 hours playing arc raiders so I’m not blindly hating the game genuinely ugly

[west rivet]

Will the shells gender be free to choose? Or is a tank male and a rogue female?

[void gull]

Probably theif, i like girls

[inland hatch]

it’s made by a studio that will actually patch the game.

[indigo summit]

They released a video not long ago going over each of them, and they've been posting cores for each one to their socials

[south storm]

///D- Destroy 
A- Arachne 
C- Control 
What that spell? DAC
///

-# This message was transmitted from a Hijack Terminal+/+, [REDACTED_LOCATION]

[mystic burrow]

there's a scav option called Rook

[warm granite]

arc: much better pve, enemies react to where they are shot, pvp lacks variety as everyone converges on the same builds

marathon: better pvp as it has more guns, character abilities that vary, but the PvE is more generic especially compared to what you find in arc

[bronze helm]

Arc is so braindead easy I don’t see the risk or reward

[gentle radish]

I wonder if someone get banned in Destiny2 can they still play Marathon?On the other hand ban on Marathon will affect D2 or not?

[void gull]

Glitch*

[warm granite]

i personally prefer marathon overall

[grand whale]

No game looks bad the art direction is a snooze fest while also quest being so boring and really no unique pve mechanic ingame aside from maybe queen and monarch

[bronze helm]

I spent 20 hours on that shit game, I wasn’t impressed and refunded. It’s too easy. PvE is easy, PvP is braindead easy because half the time people are begging to be left alive.

[inland hatch]

arc feels like a chat gpt game ngl

[grand whale]

Arc don’t even kill me fr just downs me, makes no sense

[void gull]

Arc is really visually impressive and seems to run great but there nothing rlly happening aesthetics wise

[nimble canyon]

They no longer care about you. Once you're no longer a threat that it makes sense to me, why would they waste cycles doing anything else.

[warm granite]

arcs def for a more casual audience. marathon will have more sweats because its more pvp focused but i dont expect marathon to be an esport either

[grand whale]

My adhd brain wanted to me to fully upgrade all benches and I wanted to kill 1 queen at least so that’s why I had a lil more hours than expected

[nimble canyon]

If someone has a gun and you break their arms, are they really a threat to you anymore?

[dreamy forge]

I can't get over how immaculate the steam page looks

I mean, it is PEAK

[void gull]

Whats the point of amazing visual quality if the visuals themselves are nothing to write home about?

[grand whale]

The game isn’t visually impressive man battlefield looks more impressive than arc raiders what

[nimble canyon]

They can hunt down someone else because you aren't going to destroy them when you're bleeding out on the ground.

[grand whale]

Is it going to be a marvel rivals situation

[nimble canyon]

If you're going to compare marvel rivals to OverWatch simply don't OverWatch is already a Lost cause

[warm granite]

i found arcs environments to be pretty immersive because they are more grounded in the real-world. that being said its not a big thing for me, i like marathon a lot specifically because it looks stylized and unique

[nimble canyon]

That game will be joining the big live service in the sky before long

[open remnant]

It's actually pretty perfect how both Arc and Marathon appeal to two very different types of players

[nimble canyon]

I do like it. It feels like a spectrum. In all honesty, you've got tarkov which is trying to be the most hardcore appealing as it possibly can and then you've got Marathon somewhat in the middle and then all the way in the casual section is arc raiders.

[void gull]

Its a lost cause that's still leagues better than its main competition

[open remnant]

I was worried Bungie would try to copy Arcs playstyle because of its success. I think that would have been a big mistake

[outer grove]

i like both at the same time

is that bad

[bronze helm]

Pretty much, that’s mostly why I can’t deal with arc raiders. It’s the fortnite of extraction shooters

[nimble canyon]

I mean it's already got so many things down that Overwatch for some strange reason is still floundering with

[grand whale]

Deadass, I rewatched xqc react to the marathon cinematic and the chat was like a sheep herd that called it cinema then it slowly started shifting to AI slop and they saw a lil action and said cinema again then said it’s bad again wtf

[warm granite]

marathon really be if you took Dark and Darker and reskinned it with The Cycle Frontier

[burnt void]

[nimble canyon]

I miss the cycle.

[warm granite]

it is a good hybrid of the two

[nimble canyon]

That game had two chances at life and it somehow squandered both. Thanks to mismanagement, cheaters and poor decisions

[open remnant]

That's why it's so great, we got two epic extraction shooters to play. Gamers eating well

[nimble canyon]

Saddening really.

[warm granite]

i never played the first version of it but i was addicted to the second one

[grand whale]

I never player overwatch like that I don’t really like that type of hero shooter I only play rivals cuz it’s marvel and has heroes I care about

[nimble canyon]

Three was as a game I used to love called hawken. I assume you know what became of that.

[burnt void]

I genuinely don't understand how that mf has a cult like following 😭😭😭

[warm granite]

lol hawken i do remember. i was a big mwo player and when i started to get mad at PGI i played hawken

[grand whale]

My main comparison is how rivals is a PvP game but not as competitive as Overwatch (was)

[burnt void]

His prime ended when he quit overwatch

[nimble canyon]

I still miss blacklight retribution. I really enjoyed that game on PC.

[warm granite]

the match start sequence with your mech booting up in hawken was pretty cool ngl

[burnt void]

ELITE BALL KNOWLEDGE

[warm granite]

blacklight was cool too. i can tell why you like marathon

[nimble canyon]

I love that sequence. It was straight out of mech warrior

[burnt void]

Tactical smg my beloved

[outer grove]

on the topic of extraction shooters

[grand whale]

What is yalls game rotation?

[outer grove]

duckov is actually good

[burnt void]

I still have my ps4 so i could play it

[nimble canyon]

My first introduction to the extraction shooter genre was honestly was the division one survival.

[grand whale]

Not interested not necessarily a bad game just not my niche

[warm granite]

star citizen --> regret how much I spent
league of legends until i hate my life
repeat
wait for marathon

[grand whale]

The boy who cried niche😭✌🏾😂😂😂

[outer grove]

it’s an oversimplified tarkov with ducks

[burnt void]

Mine was that wild west game

[grand whale]

I know

[outer grove]

the mods add like a flea market and stuff too

[nimble canyon]

From what I understand, the original hawken is still alive on PlayStation 4/5. The same goes with blacklight retribution because thanks to peer-to-peer servers, the game won't truly die until the last person stops playing.

[outer grove]

ever since the game got workshop it’s been Up

Hunt showdown

[gleaming bough]

Shout out @kindred vigil

[bronze helm]

ABI, Tarkov and whatever MMO I’m itching for that month

[outer grove]

hunt showdown was too hard to get into

but i play solo

[grand whale]

Only star citizen? Also why do people call the game a scam I don’t understand

[nimble canyon]

Not the same case for PC unfortunately because the servers were hosted via a central and once that was gone the game died.

[warm granite]

ive heard as well but never checked. I know hawken did have a re-release but as a different, pve-only game

[burnt void]

I never got to play it, used to really want it but ye it looked hard af lol

[marble hatch]

Hi guys, for those who know, does the game support 120 fps and mouse and keyboard on PS5 pro ? thx

[bronze helm]

Hunt is pretty easy ngl

[nimble canyon]

I have backed Star citizen from the get-go. I genuinely believe that it could be something incredible, but a lot of people assume it's a scam because they looked at what was being put out and they were like. Wow this is nothing even though it's literally been made from nothing.

[grand whale]

What’s ABI?

[void gull]

Right now? Genshin, zenless, arknights endfeild starting tomorrow, tekken 8, and rivals when I hate myself

[bronze helm]

Arena Breakout Infinite

[burnt void]

It wasn't peer to peer on pc?

[teal condor]

Ay drunk water

[outer grove]

most reviews i read about it mentioned solo being harder than just squads,, and my friends don’t really like extraction shooters so it definitely wasn’t for me

[warm granite]

i play league too

star citizen isnt a scam outright, its more the developer tries but they lie constantly about their progress because they are just incompetent and have horrible management. so its not a scam in the sense they are cheating people, but its a scam in the sense you paid people incapable of doing what they promised

[nimble canyon]

Nope, required a central server once it was gone it was dead.

[burnt void]

Ty for the reminder

[burnt void]

Oof

abi is tarkov but you have a job

easy tarkov

[burnt void]

[nimble canyon]

There's videos where people just await the end of the game staying online until everything goes off.

[grand whale]

Wow everyone has such a unique game rotation I think this is a sign marathon will have a good community

More heavy PvP tarkov. It’s not easy once you’re in high ranks fighting T7s all day

Oh boi you got a wild ride lol. The real sweats are in the end game xD

Believe it or not even Anthem had such a gathering of 40 or so people in the social area awaiting the total offlining on the 12th.

I see sounds like a smart child procrastinating(story of my life)

That game was genuinely better than any cod multiplayer

im convinced games full of bots and not actual humans

incursion red river is also good

[nimble canyon]

I was there. I'm going to miss anthem believe it or not, it had the most unique flying and traversal mechanics in a game that hadn't been seen anywhere else. The movement was incredibly smooth when it transitioned between land, air and water.

Maybe if EA I had greenlit the reboot things would have been different.

Titanfall 2. Is superior to so many other games and I'm sad we'll likely never see a Titanfall 3.

CoD was stale long before the IP crossover skins. People started complaining when it was just boots on the ground brown military shooter then they complained when they added jetpacks and wanted the brown military shooter again.

And relying on upscaling cuts costs

As much as I love pokémon as a series, I have to admit that it's fallen off.

The newer games just don't have much care put into them. There are so many signs of laziness and cut corners for the sake of putting something out.

A lot of the fandom doesn't like Twin Snakes/ or hasn't played it.

[nimble canyon]

Don't get me wrong for games like legend of Zelda breath of the wild and tears of the Kingdom. Those two are fantastic games and I stand by that but there's some series that they've just completely neglected.

Metroid prime 4 was a disappointment. There was so many things wrong with it that was simply not Metroid. It can't really stand with the trilogy sadly.

i will say i think totk was better than botw.

there is my hot take for the morning.

I'll agree with that even if I miss the master cycle.

You know it's terrifying to think of the way that they put out electric car fires especially Teslas is they just have a big truck pick it up and dump it beneath a load of sand.

[nimble canyon]

Because lithium and water does not mix, not in the slightest.

[obsidian plover]

6-7 years for big corporations to start integrating it into development cycles.
~20 years before it starts contributing to consumer products.

[nimble canyon]

Then again lithium also doesn't mix well with oxygen.

[grand whale]

U da real Tesla

[neat folio]

Why are we using lithium at all

[silent tangle]

lithium? sounds tasty

[spare shore]

Im a consumer I want only the best but noooooo i wont put in the work to help these discoveries everyone else should do it for me while i talk in discord all day about how i want things to be better

[nimble canyon]

Because it's a reactive element, that's very good at storing energy

[wooden roost]

Lithium - Nirvana

[nimble canyon]

Only problem is it doesn't like water and it doesn't like oxygen.

[silent tangle]

aj2tired are u a mpreg lover

[nimble canyon]

It also doesn't like being contained in tight parcels for too long.

[grand whale]

No there’s already irl implications

[nimble canyon]

Because then it becomes a spicy pillow.

[neat folio]

Well yeah my science teacher showed us lithium and the other one you can legally have that explodes in water

[obsidian plover]

Graphine very expensive and tough to produce right now in quantities to build production scale EV/residence adjacent battery solutions.
Prototypes exist but are small.

[outer grove]

open preview this weekend

[neat folio]

WHAT

[nimble canyon]

Why didn't hydrogen powered vehicles take off I wonder?

[calm sphinx]

Eh?

[outer grove]

i be lying and shit

[neat folio]

hes lying right

[grand whale]

Depends on my mood I have no clear affiliations I’m just a merc

[stone grail]

Cuz I inhaled all the hydrogen sorry

[obsidian plover]

It's another fueling method involving a delivery mechanism.

[outer grove]

how easily people will believe misinformation when they’re hopeful

:

[nimble canyon]

Yeah but all it produced was water.

[ocean salmon]

Is 1060 6gb playable??

[outer grove]

Hell no

[nimble canyon]

Absolutely not

[neat folio]

Thank you for this psychological lesson kris

[nimble canyon]

Holy shit.

[crude stone]

I played alpha with rx580 8gb

[obsidian plover]

Doesn't mater. It has to be obtained, refined, stored, transported, stored, delivered.

[ocean salmon]

frrr???

[outer grove]

isn’t the min like a 2060

[dense stone]

what baffles me is all these tech bro companies and not 1 of them is invested in looking for power solutions better than a battery

[outer grove]

and 8gb of ram

[neat folio]

I played alpha on a TI84 guys

[nimble canyon]

That seems to be the biggest problem when it comes to fuel which isn't electricity. Yeah.

[crude stone]

depending on your rig you need to do some teaking

[nimble canyon]

Is that a fucking calculator?

[final lynx]

is there going to be a pre-launch beta?

[neat folio]

Noooo

totally not

[outer grove]

you can probably play it like on windowed mode in 800x600

[crude stone]

but I was doing fine with my gpu in alpha and I guess alpha was unoptimized

[neat folio]

yes

[rough sail]

I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said—“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

[final lynx]

okay nice 🙂

[obsidian plover]

Exactly.

You end up using a lot of resources just to get n% of a specific resource to go n# of miles in some vehicle.

[grand whale]

U might call me crazy but I play games on a gaming laptop even tho I own a 3080 desktop don’t ask me why idk

[crude stone]

that shit is stuck in my head on repeat

[nimble canyon]

Oh my fucking God that is. It's a fucking scientific graphing calculator

[neat folio]

just one weekend tho

[stone grail]

One weekend is plenty

[final lynx]

do we know the date?

[neat folio]

Not yet

[ocean salmon]

min is 1050ti

[topaz canyon]

Man hoping there is a Marathon Art book

[nimble canyon]

We don't have a proper date for the play test. We just know when the game is coming out.

[ocean salmon]

reccomended is 2060

[obsidian plover]

I have 3090/5090 based PCs. I use a Ps5 pro to game on.

[final lynx]

@grand whale i see you

[ocean salmon]

🫃

[dense stone]

recommended is a quantum computer

[crude stone]

wait for the open beta and try it, but as I said I have an rx 580 8gb 16gb ram and an I3 8100 and game ran fine

[obsidian plover]

lmao

[grand whale]

It won’t run game

[ocean salmon]

fr???

[grand whale]

lol why

[crude stone]

you will have to do a bit of tinkering and tweaks in the configs but it will run

yup, that's my rig

[neat folio]

did you try the setting

[grand whale]

I feel seen ty chud

[rough sail]

no way its tritium from the hit game no man's sky

[ocean salmon]

how many fps did u got 🙏

[nimble canyon]

Remember when borderlands 4 came out and Randy pitchford immediately blamed players for not knowing how to configure their own settings

[final lynx]

your welcome, king.

[topaz canyon]

Also any chance this game is play anywhere like Arc Raiders?

[grand whale]

Nephew💔✌🏾😂

[final lynx]

0% i hope

[proven kernel]

granted, i deserved it.

[obsidian plover]

Because PC gaming is finicky and annoying, and I'm on the computers all day doing design and other stuff.
PS5 pro just beeps and then I'm playing a game 2 seconds later.

[grand whale]

Be more specific

[stone grail]

Nope

[neat folio]

//16//..//16//..//16//

[rough sail]

Cinema

[nimble canyon]

Well I'm telling you this. It can't run on Linux in its current situation. The play tests couldn't either

[grand whale]

0% what

[obsidian plover]

no

[topaz canyon]

Buy on Xbox or PC and works on either platform

[sand token]

I had a friend who managed it

[grand whale]

Yea ofc

[crude stone]

between 60 in some areas and it dropped a bit in others but the alpha was unoptimized so I would say it will run better when releases bc I even had to install a custom gpu driver for the test to run in my rig

[final lynx]

i hope theres a 0% chance this plays like arc raiders

[stone grail]

I we get some don’t shoot raiders in Marton I will smack them behind the head

[gentle notch]

Can I get a beta code?

[dense stone]

Whos doing the marathon 1998 vs marathon 2026 comparison video?

[proven kernel]

there is no beta.

[nimble canyon]

Did he also get a ban afterwards? Because people have reported being able to get destiny 2 to work on Linux and after you manage to get it to work it bans you.

[rough sail]

Escape Will Make Me God

[obsidian plover]

Marathon is available for PS5 / PC / xbox.

[nimble canyon]

There was a January play test. You weren't invited to it. Neither was I. It's ended.

[grand whale]

Oh yea well depends what he means they both extraction shooters but that’s about it

[crude stone]

whoever thinks this gonna be like arc is going to get a surprise

[proven kernel]

people will shoot back.

[stone grail]

Most likely done with a VM

[grand whale]

Me will be my first video ever as well

[final lynx]

yeah i was responding to that guy who i hope was being sarcastic lol

[crude stone]

people will shoot first

[karmic sable]

That depends. Do you also consider basic extraction shooter functions(like looting, opening doors, extracting etc) as playing like Arc?

[nimble canyon]

Last time I checked that anti-cheat has VM detection technology, so I don't think so. It knows when it's in a virtual machine.

[sand token]

He was played through MCTT without issues. Something about a wrapper? I’m not too familiar with Linux

[proven kernel]

i know because i’m people.

[neat folio]

I hope it plays like a sci-fi hunt showdown combined with like, halo or something

[rough sail]

I am shooting EVERYONE on sight. Especially you

[stone tartan]

Damn on sight?

[final lynx]

that would be a great combination yea

[covert plume]

yall pre ordering marathon?

[crude stone]

I'm even shooting myself

[nimble canyon]

I did, yes.

[karmic sable]

Yup. On sight

[rough sail]

shooting everyone except rooks, rooks are my skrunkly

[neat folio]

Already made a D2 fit with the preorder stuff

[nimble canyon]

I threw the collector's edition on credit card and I have no regret.

[upper ledge]

I am kissing everyone on site. Especially you.

[dense stone]

Are we dropping in from a battle bus with no weapons thats the real question

[grand whale]

Fairs I just don’t like playing controller for multiplayer games anymore doesn’t feel precise enough for my liking

[crude stone]

A rook has to make me laugh not to shoot at him tho

[rough sail]

I don't know you like that, bud

[stone tartan]

Nah I’m running the healer shell

[nimble canyon]

I don't pre-order games unless I have a collector's option available because pre-ordering an infinite product is silly.

[upper ledge]

Better run when you see me on tau ceti then

[nimble canyon]

It's digital. It will never run out. There is no supply and demand here.

[topaz canyon]

Ah snap hard to not compare to Arc Raiders especially at the same price point and play anywhere being a big value add

[grand whale]

City boy! diddy foid!

[nimble canyon]

But when it is a physical item.

[rough sail]

Gotta make the rook do the nae nae or you shoot him

[proven kernel]

there’s a reason we carry guns there.

[crude stone]

I like to preorder stuff that I know I want, I buy few games yearly and only if I really want them, also the preorder bonus I need it

[nimble canyon]

You have my attention because I yearn for the days of physical media.

[upper ledge]

To give bullets kisses

[humble dew]

Anyone still not got their d2 stuff on Xbox

[grand whale]

I pre ordered because I’m excited no actual reason why aside from that

[topaz canyon]

I preordered the collectors mostly for the worm

[nimble canyon]

As much as I love steam, I wish I still owned my games still.

[neat folio]

did you go to the terminal

[proven kernel]

try at reset.

[humble dew]

Yeah nothing

Good idea

[crude stone]

I want the collector but sheesh 230$ is out of my reach atm

[dusk oak]

how to remove Arachne role? oh god

[hushed wigeon]

understandable

[nimble canyon]

Owning nothing kind of sucks. I'm going to be honest.

[neat folio]

You cant put skin back on.

[crude stone]

you cant, welcome to the red layer

[grand whale]

Idk I don’t like it and I will get revenge

[stone tartan]

Onlyfans

[proven kernel]

you’ll be able to remove it in a bit.

[topaz canyon]

Also $25 for shipping is wild

[grand whale]

Crazy username 💔😂

[nimble canyon]

[Insert Ghaul: "You don't" gif]

[crude stone]

I'm too introvert for that

[stone tartan]

lol

[grand whale]

What car is in ur profile

[covert plume]

what happens if i shell out 230 and it concords?

[upper ledge]

That’s the crazy part. I almost got the 160$ without the game but $25 shipping is crazy

[grand whale]

I’m a bad bih I can do it and buy it for u like a real one

[neat folio]

say it never happened, hide the evidence

[dusk oak]

We should Create OnlyArachne

[nimble canyon]

Then you are sod out of luck as with any product that you buy where consumer protections are not in place.

[crude stone]

mmmmmmmm

[grand whale]

Don’t matter everything in life is perfect including ur mistakes which in fact wasn’t a mistake

[nimble canyon]

If you buy buy a physical product and the company goes out of business cuz it sucks it's a bit different. Isn't it because you still have the product.

[stone tartan]

Do you want a 3rd person

[topaz canyon]

Yeah I originally noped out when I saw the shipping but thought about it and bought it

[magic rose]

So this game wont have a physical release?

[crude stone]

its possible

[nimble canyon]

If you buy a game and the company that's making it pulls the plug so the servers go down what then?

[grand whale]

I might have to blow ur shit smoove off

[magic rose]

That usually means no🥀

[dusk oak]

i dont like ur skin

[humble storm]

Well at least you now have something to remember

[magic rose]

Collector's edition comes with a code

[nimble canyon]

From what we have seen, the collector's edition is the only physical version.

[neat folio]

I want this game to suceed. I got kinda screwed on the playtest access but we NEED more games with unique combinations of aesthetic/setting and gamemode/gameplay.

[tidal sand]

/confirminfluence POWER

[humble storm]

Same

[nimble canyon]

I don't even have a disk drive on my computer anymore because I don't need one.

[neat folio]

I’m worried it will concord tho.

[crude stone]

they have not said anything I would not get my expectations up bc most of the physical media we had going on is just a disc with a license that tells your game oh yea you can download this

[grand whale]

Real

[crude stone]

I'm sure it wont tbh

[obsidian plover]

how did you get screwed on playtest access?

[primal rapids]

do people that played the alpha know the filesize

[proven kernel]

i don’t like my skin right now either. too dry.

[nimble canyon]

Even some Nintendo games don't even have cartridges anymore. They literally give you a code. It's funny

[stone grail]

Bro is entitled to get access don’t you know

[crude stone]

they changed a lot of stuff and it was on top 5 sellers in steam

[obsidian plover]

Let's take a few of those layers off.

[grand whale]

People complain about not owning things but idc about owning the game fr

[crude stone]

concord wasn't even in the 300 seller

[cunning salmon]

guys im os excited!!!

[vital haven]

His dad is the leader of Arachne

[dusk oak]

Nothing tastes sweeter than a comeback born from complete void

[proven kernel]

yes, sweet exfoliation.

[nimble canyon]

I don't even think that would make sense considering that the alpha might not even represent the final product and it might be larger or smaller as a result.

[soft terrace]

Hey! Is there another thing going on right now with the /contracts?

[cunning salmon]

ive eben waiting for this game for so long

[obsidian plover]

Sweet sweet exfoliation

[stone grail]

I will never forget fallout 76 launch with the physical version just being a cardboard disk with a code written on it

[neat folio]

Because i got the damn confirmation email i was in the playtest but then bungie said a lot of people weren’t getting codes because of “previous game restrictions”. I was banned ONCE for bad internet in D2.

[primal rapids]

Yes, but it does give you a picture of what it could be

[topaz canyon]

Truthfully bought the $160 version to see how the game is on the beta weekend. I like the aesthetics so worst case scenario I have the statue, art and worm

[nimble canyon]

I mean I could tell you how big my Marathon test folder is when I get home? NDA

[obsidian plover]

It doesn't give an accurate bering.

[crude stone]

cant tell, I'm under nda, just gonna say your drive is not going to be infected with another warzone situation but alpha doesn't represent the final product so it may vary

[coarse egret]

😂

[proven kernel]

nda seriously.

[obsidian plover]

Wait. Hold on. Why are we even worried about install size in 2026? Storage is a plenty.
