The raid is endgame stuff

When you get all your loot

[pastel cloud]

like 50-something minutes from now

[crisp sapphire]

death to traxus 🙏

[empty cypress]

hey guys will this game work on linux

[keen zinc]

Same way you'd do souls-like gameplay in elden ring yup

[pulsar cradle]

there is no raid there is raid-like, features to the map

[pastel cloud]

no

[prisma flame]

red and black = swag and cool

[empty cypress]

aw

[pulsar cradle]

there will be tons of ai tho

[rich solstice]

Lots of third partying lol

[pulsar cradle]

on cryo

[keen zinc]

the absolute state I've been in for the past few hours:

[empty cypress]

[crisp sapphire]

🙌 "dont shoot"

[brittle spear]

Friend likes Destiny. Slowly gett him into Marathon

[pulsar cradle]

cryo is basically a race where the track gets narrower, is literally the best way to explain cryo

[soft wolf]

🥪

[dreamy forge]

I had a dream I was playing Marathon

[rich solstice]

ITS ON SIGHT

[soft wolf]

loooooooooooooool

[keen zinc]

Hey raider, don't shoot!

[prisma flame]

hey runner, shoot

[broken chasm]

\o/ "Don't shoot!"

[keen zinc]

enjoy my free kit

[rich solstice]

GIMME ALL THE LOOT

[north echo]

FRIENDLY

[rich solstice]

BANG BANG

PEW PEW

[fleet thicket]

So behavioral match making not gonna be a thing in this game orrr?

[empty cypress]

[empty cypress]

i am

[dreamy forge]

maybe

[north echo]

No I’m killing everyone

[keen zinc]

of course not

[prisma flame]

if you wont use it i will ig

[empty cypress]

hope so
and linux support too

[pastel cloud]

I don''t know. I don't knowww

[crisp sapphire]

even pink cat?

[dreamy forge]

I think it'll be skill based

[empty cypress]

did the devs say so or is it just an assumption

[rich solstice]

They havent really said anything about how matchmaking works

[empty cypress]

i hope it'll be connection based

[pastel cloud]

conclusion reached based on evidence

[broken chasm]

No mention of ABMM at all.

[empty cypress]

oh i see
the playtest didn't work?

[modern stump]

I just want a pool of random skills, I'm tired of games putting me in front of sweat players

[keen zinc]

They told a pve complainer to just kill other runners and there's a death cult faction

[bright plinth]

I mean Bungie made it straight its pvp focused, you can have alliance but I dont think it would make sense in this game

[prisma flame]

i think this is a lil case of “nemesis system” but a lot smaller. bungie just hasnt made that yet they could add it in the future

[sour cargo]

That wasn't the play test goal buddy

[prisma flame]

testnucals

[soft wolf]

where the thief fans at?? 🗣️ 🗣️ y'all hiding fr

[sour cairn]

transgender game

[rich solstice]

The only alliance I can see happening is for the raid like stuff/puzzles

[empty cypress]

based

[sour cargo]

It will do for levels like Outpost or Cryo Archive where they made very clear the UESC ain't playing

[pastel cloud]

I believe this is true

[empty cypress]

i'd def play as the thief

[rough sail]

where are all the OGs

[final monolith]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOKE

[soft wolf]

[iron blaze]

dead we put them down

[pastel cloud]

they talked about this in the vidoc i think

[queen turret]

yo what's up y'all, hope everyone's having a good day/night

[soft wolf]

original gangstaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[prisma flame]

trans-consciousness game

[sour cairn]

what this mean

[rough sail]

thief will be fun I love grapple hooks

[pastel cloud]

I'm NOT. Thanks for freakin askin

[soft wolf]

thanks, u 2

[pastel cloud]

exactly what you think, that guys weird

[rich solstice]

And funny drone to knock loot out of their inventories lol

[bright plinth]

yeah like I said its pvp focused

[pulsar cradle]

fucking horrible day

[crisp sapphire]

youre a mean person

[sour cairn]

the good mod is on break god dammit

[soft wolf]

pathfinder main?

[rough sail]

I had a job interview today frirnds I hope I did well

[queen turret]

oh damn homie sorry to hear it, wanna talk ab it ?

[rough sail]

I mained bloodhound :3

[keen zinc]

All you're getting out of my bag is a 20 dollar jar bucko

[prisma flame]

im just gonna blast everything that moves

[soft wolf]

i'll pray for u

[soft wolf]

w anyway

[rich solstice]

Wattson main here

[soft wolf]

ayoo

[pulsar cradle]

anywho

[bitter ermine]

What’s gonna stop solo lobbies from being all assassin lol

[pulsar cradle]

that being said

[prisma flame]

i live in maine

[soft wolf]

goat

[pulsar cradle]

[pastel cloud]

people wanting to play the other shells

[iron blaze]

real

[keen zinc]

who else mains Sledge

[queen turret]

things'll get better fam trust

[keen heath]

The odd Blackbird hunting down the Voids

[soft wolf]

smart

[bitter ermine]

I’m just worried I’m gonna be like one of the 2 people not invis in the lobby lmaoo

[prisma flame]

real 😔

[pulsar cradle]

they dont, my fate is only delayed

[keen heath]

Hey Gang, Zuko here.

[pulsar cradle]

Pickles is fuming, angry even

[queen turret]

only way from here's up homie

[teal condor]

Who?

[keen zinc]

can't get worse at rock bottom 🔥

[queen turret]

IM SAYINNN

[sour cargo]

Tbh Void is overrated when you have Blackbird and Destroyer, i've seen footage of the April test, Destroyer demolishes easily when played smart

[pulsar cradle]

unfortunately i live in a box

[prisma flame]

until the plates shift

[sour cargo]

More of a Machine Girl myself

[keen zinc]

aside from voids initiating the fight you'll probably have better tools for fighting so just dont miss

[queen turret]

nothing wrong with boxes, not that I know what you're going through my family but I'd pry open that box and pull you out if I could that's on my bitch ass momma

[soft wolf]

bungie should sell marathon posters n comics n stuff

[crisp sapphire]

when we gettin marathon anime

[dark rampart]

[pulsar cradle]

this box is acc made of bedrock and i only got visitor perms

[soft wolf]

😭 , i'd prefer a well made live action movie/tv show i think

[prisma flame]

i hope arachne has a special knife with unique animations

[pulsar cradle]

knife skins will go hard asf

[keen zinc]

Charter but it's just a fuckin guy with a red tshirt against a horrible greenscreen

[rich solstice]

Apparently Assassins knife in todays cinematic has Arachne symbols on it

[prisma flame]

im talking finishers though

[queen turret]

they say viewing the world from the outside is a sign of ascendency, maybe you're actually a higher being

[pulsar cradle]

or maybe im just another chud in a crowd of chuds

[short finch]

we live in a society

[prisma flame]

first person finishers are always welcomed imo

[soft wolf]

let this dood cook (or not?)

[sour cargo]

Ah, so the farmer is interested in the sacred thermodynamics of violence

[queen turret]

If one person thinks you're not a chud, then you can't be my family, and I dont think you're a chud

[prisma flame]

im only here for the testnucals

[pulsar cradle]

looks very much so

[keen heath]

So we're agreed, anyone calling for PvE modes will be met with the Sacred Thermodynamics of Violence, yes?

[prisma flame]

i wish they gave him a hard ass theme like they did destroyer but i can understand why they didt

[soft wolf]

do bungie devs talk in here too once in a while or nah?

[prisma flame]

could be talking rn who knows

[pastel cloud]

occasionally

[keen heath]

It's like a bigfoot sighting

[teal condor]

Bruh I'm so toxic at work jeez

[pastel cloud]

they're more active in the nda chats from what i've heard

[soft wolf]

oh cool, i needa lock in then

[soft wolf]

[pastel cloud]

yeah they're almost never in this channel

[soft wolf]

hm, makes sense

[iron blaze]

you could just ping them

[soft wolf]

IT'S A TRAP

[north echo]

Do yall think we gonna get Easter eggs

[pastel cloud]

@floral hound hey pal 😁

[soft wolf]

scheming

[rich solstice]

I did see one in the community art chat

[pulsar cradle]

there was once a time.....

[keen heath]

Maybe around easter

[soft wolf]

i like eggs

[lilac lodge]

Destroyer mains when you fight with bullets instead of aura

[soft wolf]

fire squad inbound on your location

[north echo]

Jarvis Trih xeem his location

[pulsar cradle]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1364289254045515886/1465440390558519524/destroyer2.gif

[empty cypress]

so what happened to the people

[north echo]

They died

[pulsar cradle]

aliens got em

[prisma flame]

a lot of the easter eggs will literally just be marathon lore. marathon is the breeding grounds for bungies games.

[empty cypress]

oh

[pulsar cradle]

yup, fucked em up

[empty cypress]

rip

[soft wolf]

questionable sentence

[pastel cloud]

that's what we're supposed to find out

[prisma flame]

2 examples, Mjolnir armor and the UESC(UNSC)

[pulsar cradle]

if your a freak

[soft wolf]

crazy

[empty cypress]

also
his head fucking exploded

[pastel cloud]

i really like that you literally have not said "you're" even one single time in this server

[prisma flame]

but his souls intact.

[brittle spear]

Help me get my friend interested. I shared the gameplay reveal trailer and vision of marathon

[empty cypress]

lmao

[fluid nacelle]

Working remote is so fun. I just need marathon to be my peak man child

[soft wolf]

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[pulsar cradle]

yeah, shows my level of swag that outshines the normies

[dry sequoia]

Pre-order trailer, cinematics, and then if they still have questions, JTA lore video into Runner Shells

[pulsar cradle]

ill never correct myself because pickles is never wrong

[prisma flame]

for me marathon “4” feels like destiny 1 days im way more hyped then i should be

[neon crag]

Lemme know if you do it and how cause not many of my homies give 2 **** about this game

[pastel cloud]

a little more than exploded, see the 4th vid here #🎨marathon-community-art-chat message

something came out! yucky

[prisma flame]

JTA mentioned

[wide heath]

Do they like cats?

[north echo]

Yummy

[dry sequoia]

I've personally just been harassing my homies and sharing anything every chance I get

personally have a few hopeful members of the church of Charter

[neon crag]

I know I can get some to get it but the main dude who gets everybody to stick to a certain game has 0 interest in this

The prick

He's the one I gotta sell the most cause then the others will come in like a flock

[dry sequoia]

Call him a miser and say he has given up on joy

[pastel cloud]

is he the alpha of your pack

Do you bring him rabbits

[dry sequoia]

become the alpha from pure hopium

[neon crag]

Not really he's just the dude who when he hops on a game gets everybody else to play it

[final monolith]

im trying to draw and my neighbor starts to cut his lawn, dude its 5 pm

PLEASE

[dry sequoia]

passion and charisma is what creates leaders

[final monolith]

PLEAAAAAAAAAAAAASE

[neon crag]

I don't have that aura nobody trusts my gaming taste

[pastel cloud]

so he's the alpha of your pack and you bring him rabbits

[neon crag]

Ffs

[prisma flame]

become lone wolf. become the alpha

[pulsar cradle]

bro just explained me, holy

[teal condor]

C-team blocks egress with a sign nearby saying to never block it

Me: C-team if we are onboarding members that can't read English let's have a stand down and make corrections

Co-worker: all of my team can read English, this is highly offensive.

Me: thank you for providing it in writing that you are willingly choosing to block an egress and ignoring standard operation procedures. I'll get started on some paperwork.

[neon crag]

It's cause he hated arc so when I told him it's the same genre he told me and I quote "I'm not g** f*** off"

[silent tangle]

holy yap

[teal condor]

Big time

Ted talk type shit tbh

[soft wolf]

yapping is overhated

[silent tangle]

yeah like

who does this guy think he is

[soft wolf]

🫄

[teal condor]

Nah I power trip

[silent tangle]

yapping is perfectly hated

it's the perfect balance of being awesome and annoying

PlayStation marathon collab ugly asf

[soft wolf]

the controller is cool

[silent tangle]

Yeah

the headset is whack though

[soft wolf]

uhhhh

[silent tangle]

$170 for a headset?

ur fucking crazy

[soft wolf]

consumerism

[rugged idol]

399 new messages since I was last here

[silent tangle]

having a controller for $70 is already too much

[rugged idol]

It’s been like 5 minutes bro

[teal condor]

Could have been a lot more tbh

[silent tangle]

like

[rugged idol]

Shut yo cute ahh up

[silent tangle]

another thing, why the fffuck are CD's like $15-$20???

[prisma flame]

the controller shouldve had translucent sections and the inside shouldve had design changes

[silent tangle]

what are we DOING bro

[soft wolf]

[rugged idol]

See it works

[silent tangle]

no way on earth CD's should be more than $10

[teal condor]

CDs are vintage now

[silent tangle]

This would've been fire

[silent tangle]

and

idgaf

[rugged idol]

Are they deadass

Am I old

[soft wolf]

nah

[teal condor]

Yeah it's old ass media

[silent tangle]

no way my garbage CD should've been $22

[dry sequoia]

Either he hated ARC for valid reasons and Marathon solves them or he hated it cause he's a wuss and in that case doesn't deserve to lead the pack

[soft wolf]

yea but thats not the point

[rugged idol]

🙁

[soft wolf]

nah man

[neon crag]

he just thought it was boring adn that you do nothing

[teal condor]

If it's not common Media it's now niche

[neon crag]

i just dont think he likes the genre

[soft wolf]

im sorry 😭

[silent tangle]

CD's are vintage not because they're old but because they're obsolete

[dry sequoia]

then Marton solves the issues + has incredible aura

[neon crag]

its a pain in the ass just to get him to download the fkn open playtest the dog

[rugged idol]

I’ll call myself when I’m older to 30 than 20, deal?

[soft wolf]

hmm

[teal condor]

At the rate we are growing it's both now

[prisma flame]

honestly sounds like a boring human

[silent tangle]

Marathons art style makes me drool

[dry sequoia]

just sell it to everyone else as hard as you can and he'll have to adapt to hold his position

[soft wolf]

deal, i guess

[silent tangle]

It's so pretty to look at

[pastel cloud]

🙂‍↕️

[silent tangle]

in a sort of dystopian depressing sorta way

[neon crag]

oh believe im putting all the stops for this

[rugged idol]

Yayyyyyyyy
Happy geetar

[prisma flame]

“no i wont download the free thing to try it out, come buy and play this though with me though.

[teal condor]

Militarized Dystopian Futurism

[silent tangle]

what do we do if marathon like genuinely flops and is dog shit

[soft wolf]

why is this so accurate

[dry sequoia]

If none of that works, remove his skin and offer his pale heart to the thermodynamics of violence

[kindred vigil]

Move on

[dry sequoia]

It will never flop as long as I'm alive

[teal condor]

Then it would have been very good while it was around

[soft wolf]

hello, changing anime pfp user dood guy

[neon crag]

i think ill be able to get them to try the open playtest ik alot of my mates are keen its just whether they stick with it idk

[pastel cloud]

hi neeyth

[teal condor]

Like CDs 💀

[silent tangle]

you're right ATM

[neon crag]

but if i can get that one fker to commit ik were golden

[dry sequoia]

If it flops it means I'm dead

[kindred vigil]

Hi ncaesbtet

[silent tangle]

okay bye back to my dumbass job

[neon crag]

he got us all to grind rainbow for over 100 hours and i had fun for like 5 games

[soft wolf]

if it flops, we are cooked

[fleet cliff]

they’re clearly spending an absurd amount of money on the marketing campaign and it’s come a long way since last april. i think it will do fine.

[kindred vigil]

Hi 🇯

[teal condor]

True if the scandal didn't make it flop it's already proven pretty well

[neon crag]

my prediction is 200k playerbase on launch that drops to a stable 70-80k for afew months

[soft wolf]

whazzuupp

[rugged idol]

Lowkey looks like Minecraft and apex mixed tg at time

[dry sequoia]

100 maramillion players on launch

[sacred sail]

If marathon flops we go back to arc raiders

[teal condor]

Fuck no

[neon crag]

if marathon flops i cry cause i cant go back to arc after this bro

[proven kernel]

Animal Crossing 24/7

[dry sequoia]

I honestly think it'll shatter records once the internet figures out what's in Vault 7

[rugged idol]

If Marathon flops I’ll be taking a break form gaming for a bit honestly

[neon crag]

going from marathon to arc is like going from fine dining to prison food

[teal condor]

I'm going back to story or cinematic experiences type games

Getting tired of competitive

[soft wolf]

🚫

[dry sequoia]

Everyone is worried about Marathon flopping, but it's up to us to keep it alive

[rugged idol]

Might j start grinding insurgency again

Actually

[dreamy warren]

No it isnt

[dry sequoia]

as long as we live it can never die, on Big Charter

[neon crag]

i honestly dont think itll flop it stands out on its own

[soft wolf]

character growth moment

[neon crag]

i just dont think itll maintain arcs current numbers cause it wont be as casual

[lilac lodge]

Drip in this game is going to be my only concern

[neon crag]

no way this game isnt KOS

[sacred sail]

BioShock is the best game ever made

[dry sequoia]

this shit so peak only programs I'm running on my PC until 2027 is Marathon.exe and Wallpaper Engine

[wide heath]

70k on steam long term would be fire

[rugged idol]

I think that’s why it is
Tarkov is super not casual
Arc is hella casual
Marathon seems to be middle ground

[neon crag]

yep

its like the 3 bears

tarkov is too big, arc is too small but marathon is jussssttt right

[lilac lodge]

That is def optimistic lol I could see like 35-40k long term

[rugged idol]

Yep

[fleet cliff]

lowkey that’s ok to separate themselves visually from others that all look similar. it creates distinction. that in itself is making a statement that it IS different from all the other extraction shooters out there. remember how it went with destiny. it was also a hybrid type of game that no-one was expecting to do succeed as well as it had.

[dry sequoia]

120k concurrent

[soft wolf]

they need to cook with the skins or they're gonna have a big problem

[neon crag]

oooo thats a big statement 120k would be amazing

[wide heath]

Absolutely optimistic. Realistically I think it’s more in the 50k range

[dry sequoia]

easy, put that on polymarket

[soft wolf]

hm, valid take

[neon crag]

id be over the moon if we maintained 120k

[teal condor]

I've Sherpa'd a raid, I've won a moba small tournament with MVP. And I've no life-ed European Extreme MGS. I think I'm good on gaming if Marathon misses the mark long term.

[dry sequoia]

leverage the house

[neon crag]

but im betting on 60-70k still

[lilac lodge]

The question is do we think it’s going to outperforming be D2 in 5 months

[dry sequoia]

300k concurrent across all platforms

[neon crag]

as long as bungie support it properly

[dry sequoia]

maybe 500k

[empty cypress]

put linux port/compatibility with Proton there

[sacred sail]

Being a BioShock fan in 2026 is rough

[dry sequoia]

it will outperform D2 4 hours before launch

[neon crag]

like d2 peak?

[soft wolf]

[neon crag]

or d2 now

[empty cypress]

maybe THEN they will consider working on it

[lilac lodge]

Lmaoo then bungie and Sony gone have some uncomfortable questions

[neon crag]

cause d2 now is maintaining highguard numbers isnt it

[wide heath]

To be fair, d2 now is pretty dry content wise

[dry sequoia]

I wager it will be their premiere game

[neon crag]

oh wait no its got way more than highguard

[lilac lodge]

I personally hope marathon’s success contributes to D2’s death

[dry sequoia]

D2 is a 10 year old game

[neon crag]

thats the only thing that can give marathon a low playercount

[livid trout]

guys i still dont have a faction

[neon crag]

if they dont give it proper updates

[sacred sail]

Damn everyone here hates destiny

[livid trout]

convince me why i should join urs :3

[old hollow]

not hard to do, d2 numbers suck

[dry sequoia]

offer your skin to Charter

[glacial bane]

hey lad dont you want to put a little wager on the rattay tourney

[wide heath]

Me too. Get them working on d3

[neon crag]

i like it i just think they didnt give d2 the love it needed

[lilac lodge]

If marathon is the only bungie game hooping they’re gonna start giving D2 dev team a Burger King budget and it’s gonna die even faster

[dry sequoia]

I loved Destiny

[sacred sail]

Join traxus and get a cool orange name plus we have alot of mysterious aura

[dry sequoia]

but I like shiny new toy

[novel vale]

[regal hemlock]

So are the shell cinematics telling 1 coherent story?

[neon crag]

if marathon blows up tho itll free up room to help other prokects massively

so i need this to pop off

[pastel cloud]

they don't seem to be, no

[livid trout]

hmm

[sacred sail]

Agreed and it was consumed by greed

[rugged idol]

Shawty like a melody in my head

[lilac lodge]

Or they rely on it too much like destiny spread themselves too thin and overly monetize and kill their golden goose in the chase of profit and Sony shareholder value

[soft wolf]

a tale as old as time itself....

[neon crag]

doesnt help alot of the content was permanently removed and that new players dont know wtf is happening

[teal condor]

No it's more like "in this scenario this shell can Aura farm like this"

[regal hemlock]

☹️

[wide heath]

All what marathon needs is a uber hard to get skin so people are busy chasing it

[sacred sail]

Yeah that too sunsetting was the dumbest shit they ever came up with fr

[pastel cloud]

yeah it would've been cooler. they're still pretty cool though

[neon crag]

honestly all they gotta do is not make us pay for new content like weapons, shells, maps

if bungie stick with a monetization of a battle pass, cosmetics and give us decent new content the game wont die

[neon crag]

i think vault 7 is a good enough endgame tbh rn

[regal hemlock]

I still have some sort of hope

[soft wolf]

(and if the cosmetics n content is actually good)

[lilac lodge]

Fair enough even so marathon doesn’t have the kind of monetization model to outperform destiny’s peak. Also their niche is much smaller it wouldn’t even make sense for that to be their goal

[neon crag]

if arc can maintain 200k with 0 endgame i dont see how marathon cant maintain a good playerbase with an endgame

[glacial bane]

can i shock you. i dont really like science fantasy stuff like destiny and halo. its just not for me 👍 hope thats ok

[neon crag]

idk i think arc opened up alot of peoples eyes to extraction shooters so i think marathon has a great chance of blowing up

[empty cypress]

Arc works on linux btw
Another point for Bungie to consider

[neon crag]

we will have to see how well the open playtest goes

[lilac lodge]

Is the endgame the thing that maintains player counts or a cycle of new players and novel organic experiences. Destiny drops new “dungeons” raids and things like that but still loses overall interest over time.

[neon crag]

does this game not have linux support?

[regal hemlock]

Im unbelievably excited

[soft wolf]

thats ok. 👍 didn't expect that though

[neon crag]

you gotta understand that d2 made it next to impossible for new players to get into so its hard for playercount not to drop

[old hollow]

doesnt matter what amount of content you add people will leave if the game sucks

[empty cypress]

i heard that no

[neon crag]

arc raiders is the most casual thing ive ever seen

[lilac lodge]

That would be the best case scenario for us I’m curious how it would happen. I feel like everyone has to want a game like this to succeed and the haters be hating

[neon crag]

arc raiders did amazing at getting people hooked on this genre

[empty cypress]

also bungie has a bad track record with linux users

[old hollow]

20k daily is still pretty good ig

[neon crag]

i dont think theres as many hates as their used to be

[empty cypress]

better than cod

[regal hemlock]

Honestly thats kinda real, marathon exists in this perfect niche for me

[old hollow]

I keep forgetting bungie didnt make halo infinite

[neon crag]

i think people are more optimistic now and if the open playtest performs well i see no reason why this game cant hit 300k atleast on launch

its not like the game isnt affordable

[old hollow]

46k on steam alone, a good chunk plays on gamepass, slop isnt dying anytime soon

[rich solstice]

and 4, 5

[lilac lodge]

Isn’t marathons niche to be more complex and competitive extraction shooter tho. It’s a niche of a niche genre so it’s def not gonna be anything like arc raiders but what are Sonys expectations for the game. Does it need to sell gang busters or keep a dedicated player base

[dry sequoia]

boom

[old hollow]

yeah but infinite is the only one rn

[old hollow]

its niche is to look fucking amazing and hire actual people

[sacred sail]

I will never understand the hate that halo 4 got lmao

[lament jay]

Is it a hot take if I say I want the Jacket that the researcher doctor things from the reveal cinematic as an actual merch item? Even if it costs like Destiny raidjacket money

[wary herald]

highguard

[soft wolf]

depends on where u life..... although doesnt bungie do regional pricing with this game?? not sure

[jaunty crystal]

dang I wish I were you, you didnt have to go through the 7 levels of a hell of a halo fan

[neon crag]

yeah its difficulty, social differences is why it wont keep arc numbers playerbase imo but thats fine as long as it maintains a decent playerbase

[glacial bane]

yeah it does for me too. im more of a hard sci fi guy and marathon leans more towards that I feel

[lament jay]

yall know what im talking abt right i dont sound insane

[dry sequoia]

Bungie's name carries great weight, and they're gonna get a spot on the next State of Play which is shown to the whole Wrodl

World

[old hollow]

and be a better extraction shooter to play than generic army guy with boring guns

[lilac lodge]

I wish coworker gamers could tell the difference lol

[neon crag]

i mean ofc but if arc sold as much as it did i dont see why this cant either

both games are the same price range arent htey

they

[soft wolf]

real

[rich solstice]

When is State of play btw?

[wide heath]

12th

[jagged nymph]

next week sometime

[wary herald]

since when were extraction shooters not competitive

[jaunty crystal]

whats your first halo, reach?

[sacred sail]

Yeah ngl

[jaunty crystal]

well there you go

[lilac lodge]

If Sony is realistic about its population then marathon will have plenty of time and runway to succeed but if they keep that corporate live service naïveté then they might be cooked lol they are rarely realistic to shareholders

[neon crag]

imagine if after the state of play they say Marathon open playtest available now at the end

[rich solstice]

That means were gonna get another shell cinematic before then too

[wary herald]

reach was the best

[soft wolf]

not wrong

[sacred sail]

Reach is also the best halo lol

[soft wolf]

yea

[jaunty crystal]

reach was the worst halo multiplayer

[fleet cliff]

as someone who has enjoyed the gun play that bungie games provide, i’m looking forward to marathon. i like the visual style and if you don’t, that’s okay too. i have tried so many games and keep returning to destiny because no other games scratch that gunplay itch. hopefully it does well, which long term should be good for both destiny and marathon.

[sacred sail]

But forge

[lilac lodge]

More like higher than the baseline arc raiders set by being the first exposure to the general audience not that they aren’t all competitive yk

[regal hemlock]

I love the artificial biology, its so refreshing how the game can feel so artificial yet still grounded in the universe

[pulsar cradle]

loud buzzer

[jaunty crystal]

do i wanna play minecraft?

[sacred sail]

Forge was elite buddy

[leaden cairn]

Have we heard anything about a open beta yet?

[jaunty crystal]

for kids I guess

[pulsar cradle]

have you

[jagged nymph]

no official yet no

[rich solstice]

Sometime this month

[wary herald]

liar liar pants on fire

[neon crag]

at the state of play we probably get the date i imagine

[sacred sail]

And games are made for kids no?

[lilac lodge]

Also it’s gonna have ranked so a clear differentiation

[empty cypress]

and it looks creepy

[neon crag]

im hoping it drops right after the state of play for maximum hype

[jaunty crystal]

game was rated M for mature

[regal hemlock]

Im a sucker for the heebie jeebies

[sacred sail]

But you cant lie alot of kids were playing ts and still do play m rated games lmao

[pulsar cradle]

this mfer said halo reach had the worst multiplayer

[lilac lodge]

I’m keeping the test app downloaded just in case for the state of play

[rich solstice]

Love the dark eerie vibe Marathon has

[jaunty crystal]

yea reach babies I know

[empty cypress]

[regal hemlock]

Youre cooking

[lilac lodge]

I wish this game would have been M but I understand

[old hollow]

what is that pfp

[pliant sonnet]

Long term they can bring back all the content they took away and monetize marathon instead

[old hollow]

when is state of play

[empty perch]

Surely marton will be mentioned in state of play

[neon crag]

no Bungie is cooking i just wanna eat what theyre making already

[sacred sail]

Reach was solid still is

[rich solstice]

They can show me a 5 second clip and ill be hyped

[regal hemlock]

Its me in a sally face mask

[unkempt shell]

Bruh I was timedout minutes after joining sekiguchi. Defo has arachne written all over it

[soft wolf]

12th

[pliant sonnet]

Wrong

[rich solstice]

Welcome back lol

[regal hemlock]

This catapillar actually lives in my brain

[jaunty crystal]

dedicated halo players at the time we all dropped reach to get back to 3 and 2, then 343 took the reigns later and it got worse

[teal condor]

Same

[old hollow]

so silly

[unkempt shell]

Tyty

[glacial bane]

absolutely and its fairly plausible as well. not some ancient force or magic in play. you could imagine something like this taking place hundreds of years from now. you have the aliens of course with some of their powers being ambiguous but I really enjoy how rest of humanity is pretty grounded in this universe

[old hollow]

blegh

9 days huh

[soft wolf]

gulp

[rich solstice]

I do wish Marathon was rated M but its not a deal breaker

[teal condor]

I'll do it again too

[unkempt shell]

🧠 ?

[empty cypress]

what difference does it make

[old hollow]

I love how shells look like they are 3d printed

[rich solstice]

More violence

[soft wolf]

wait its not?

[old hollow]

like the printing layers

[kindred vigil]

fuck shit fuck words

[old hollow]

[fleet cliff]

i’m intrigued by arachne

[rich solstice]

Nah its rated T

[old hollow]

okay traxus

[soft wolf]

[old hollow]

it is a live service game so no point in that

[lilac lodge]

Chill tf out gang

[empty cypress]

what cosmetics did you expect anyway

[unkempt shell]

No, you should be intrigued by worm

[sacred sail]

Idk anything w blood

[rich solstice]

I mean a game can be mature and live service

But its fine, aslong as it stays dark and eerie

[pulsar cradle]

Everything runs on CyAc, Or nothing runs at all

[fleet cliff]

i joined traxus months ago. arachne wasn’t even revealed back then

[unkempt shell]

^

[lilac lodge]

No I was talking about the Arachne glaze

[soft wolf]

that should be enough, no? i dont think they would want to show super gore stuff anyway.

[empty cypress]

i am intrigued by whether bungie will cave under pressure from arc and make their game work on linux

[jaunty crystal]

yea the blood is plenty, even tho its blue like the covenant

[empty cypress]

ye

[lilac lodge]

And you’re confident and proud of your choices

[regal hemlock]

This is exactly what i mean it balances this immense artificialness with this grounded world in a way that just scratches my brain

[empty cypress]

especially in the trailers

[unkempt shell]

I dont see why not

[rich solstice]

Yeah I was scared they were gonna remove the blue blood

[empty cypress]

well destiny 2 doesn't work

[empty cypress]

look it up on protondb

[unkempt shell]

Only time will tell 🤷‍♂️

[jade wadi]

All the genuinely worst players in the game will find their way to Arachne I am sure

they will play like they are That Guy when they are actually just that guy

[empty cypress]

ye

[fleet cliff]

@kyo honestly sometimes. hindsight is always 20/20.
i never claimed to be a prophet.

[sour cairn]

i wouldnt expect linux support at all

[lilac lodge]

They lack the intangibles

[sacred sail]

Traxus is the best faction

[rich solstice]

How are the worst players going to go to a pvp faction lol

[soft wolf]

sadly

[empty cypress]

one can only hope

[unkempt shell]

Sekiguchi is giving free worms to all new runners. Arachne will not claim them all

[regal hemlock]

Im more so appreciative of the way theyre printed and come to be, the weavers and the tub of ambiguous goo

[pulsar cradle]

until CyAc enters the room

[wary herald]

because of anti cheat

[lilac lodge]

Yall employ half the chat ragebaiters your stocks are ass rn

[pulsar cradle]

because everything runs on CyAc or nothing runs at all

[soft wolf]

looooooooooooooooool

[jade wadi]

I described it in the message; it's like how the most handless players in league end up playing duelists/assassins yknow?

[unkempt shell]

Aye man, I just got here. Idk about all the ragebaiters, I just like cute worm

[sacred sail]

[regal hemlock]

I hope the catapillars dont remain a collectors edition item, id really like to own one myself

Never tried with mango that’s why I’m asking

[empty cypress]

do shells feel pain

[teal condor]

Delicious

[lilac lodge]

Yo guys what is "heat" in marathon

[sacred sail]

Squeaker

[vague hound]

Is it like stamina ?

[nocturne oyster]

a stam bar

[outer lichen]

Stamina essentially

[wide heath]

Stamina

[stone grail]

Stamina yes

[jaunty crystal]

stamina bar but works the other way around

[unkempt shell]

I got ran by that gun so many times...didnt care after I got gjallerhorn

[stone grail]

Stamina plus I wanna say cuz it fills up with some abilities too

[vague hound]

The more you fill it the more you disadvantage yourself

Eh ?

[unkempt shell]

THEY HATE ME CAUSE IM RIGHT! 🤓

[teal condor]

The new guns in Renegades have it sampled out tbh

[outer lichen]

You lose sprint until you cool off if it fills fully

[jaunty crystal]

yea if you overheat its bad

[vague hound]

Aaaah

[jaunty crystal]

but its situational, many times its worth to overheat

[keen heath]

I really wish they woulda made it bar go down instead of bar go up

[vague hound]

Im tired of seeing that arc raiders bar

This is something new

[snow patrol]

[unkempt shell]

Also chat, what is the most broken meta in destiny 2 pvp history and why is it shatterdive?

[stone grail]

Honestly they could make it a setting so you can have either

[vague hound]

And new is good

[stone grail]

Stamina bars aren’t arc raider exclusive brother

[keen heath]

"new"....literally just the direction a bar goes 🤣

[jaunty crystal]

arc raider bar is crazy

[rare juniper]

They need to remake the original games otherwise what's the point

[vague hound]

I know but arc raiders stamina is annoying

[wide heath]

I personally think One eyed mask meta was worse

[stone grail]

I agree

[snow patrol]

why is there a shit ton of ppl crying abt marathon saying its gonna effect destiny 2? if they want to see destiny do good then theyve gotta support the release of marathon too right?

[stone grail]

Game has shit movement and skill expression

[unkempt shell]

Ahh i wasnt around for that. Heard the horror stories tho. W bungie taking 1 year to nerf it LMAO

[vague hound]

Exactly

[keen heath]

No nuance allowed in video game discussions. Please stick to tribalism. ThankYouSoMuch.

[vague hound]

Im fkin huffing and puffing all the time

Not everything needs to be about apex movement

You think the destiny community are that smart to realise that?

[stone grail]

Average gamer stamina

[vague hound]

There's levels to it you dumb ahh

[unkempt shell]

They only care about themselves

[wide heath]

Genuinely dumbfounded how it took that long. Best thing is that it took multiple nerfs to finally contain it

[keen heath]

2 tap Thorn meta was....brutal

[rare juniper]

Arc clearly got the formula right, seeing as it averages 300k daily

[jaunty crystal]

all I know you destiny people are alright compared to what halo people been through

[outer lichen]

Shatterdive is stupid, but I remember it was like year 3 D2 there was a hand cannon - I think the name was Lunala or something like that - that Bungie ended up nerfing and then vaulting because it was just stupid good. Could 2-tap basically anyone in crucible regardless of armor stats

[snow patrol]

youve got a point

[wide heath]

Oh good old d1y1. Back then PvP was a fever dream

[vague hound]

D2 has made a lot of enemies

[unkempt shell]

Bring back 120 meta honestly

[rare juniper]

We need a campaign

[unkempt shell]

Got like 7k kills on my steady hand before I dropped the game

[keen heath]

If the direction a bar goes is enough for you to consider something "new" wait till I introduce you aarabic

[rare juniper]

Where are the Pfhor

[jaunty crystal]

[wide heath]

[keen heath]

where pfhor art thou hromeo?

Megatron has arrived

[unkempt shell]

The finals has kept a tight knit playerbase since the game dropped while arc raiders is going crazy. If marathon does the same, it will be fine. Doesnt need 100s of thousands playing

[rose moss]

*investigates the area*

[unkempt shell]

Aslong as I can get consistent games idc about playercount

[rich solstice]

Real

[vague hound]

What you find out ?

[neon crag]

I do want a decent playerbase so sony makes enough money to keep investing in marathon tho

I'm hoping for a stable 70-80k

[rose moss]

*sniffs the air* smells like.... teen spirit....

[keen heath]

no crime here not-bruce Wayne

[dense goblet]

Exfilzone when it first dropped i kept running into the same 10 people, they were able to adapt tho and the matches still played out different

[undone crow]

There's a difference between sony buying bungie for billions needing a return on investment in comparison to embark just making games tho, yea realistically the game would do fine but I know micro transactions will go crazy

[rich solstice]

Thats very doable

[eager token]

Here we are now

[vague hound]

Hello hello hello how low....

[neon crag]

I think so aswell

Launch I'm predicting 200-300k

[unkempt shell]

The hype has been building and building. People are changing their mind in the game. Let them cook, twin

[rich solstice]

On steam or in general?

[unkempt shell]

I can agree with this

[neon crag]

The open playtest shoukd be all this game needs for the final push of hype

[unkempt shell]

Will be way more in general. Console gaming go crazy

[neon crag]

Just needs the date revealed at the Sony state of play

[undone crow]

I hope marathon will do well but it won't do as good as arc raiders which it doesn't need to, but bad things might happen if Sony isn't satisfied

[vague hound]

What if dates dont get revealed at state of play ?

[keen heath]

I doubt Sony's expecting Marathon to top the numbers Destiny pulled in, but a succesful Marathon could mean D3 becomes a reality

[sweet crater]

I cry

[neon crag]

I think it would be dumb of them not to reveal ot there considering so many eyes will be on kg

It

I can't imagine they don't do that tbh

[undone crow]

I personally think d3 just won't exist simply because destiny isn't as big of a hit as it once was

[unkempt shell]

Chat, i wanna find worm in playtest

[keen heath]

I think there's space for an experience similar to an MMO that's missing in the market.

[timid basin]

games have most potential of success if they dont try to beat other games but try to make a good game like other games didnt exist

[soft wolf]

worm shell soon? 👀

[unkempt shell]

BRO PLEASE

[timid basin]

so if a 5v5 bomb type game doesnt compare itself to valorant or cs then its better

[vague hound]

Next cinematic is prolly vandal huh ?

[timid basin]

make worms in the game but they are small and dont do nothing at all and u can shoot them so they can explode

[vague hound]

No wait

This is why embark is a great studio that makes passion driven games it's genuinely no surprise why they're in my opinion the best studio rn they make good games back to back

[soft wolf]

[teal condor]

[wide heath]

Make it a fully fledged mmo and it should be good

[soft wolf]

[undone crow]

[wide heath]

[timid basin]

marathon caught my eye when the first trailers showed up because i saw how the game isnt close to any others out there

[stone grail]

Fishing with worms on Marton

[undone crow]

It's more of an mmo than d2

[stone grail]

Yeah but still no real mmo

[sweet crater]

Fishing minigame confirmed

[wide heath]

And it’s mobile

[soft wolf]

[teal condor]

MMO can describe a lot of games gonna need to be more specific
