[wind cradle]

destroyer gives off unemployed divorced dad energy
spends all day playing DOOM and drives his plain steel grey pickup everywhere thats got about 40 bumper stickers from random places around the world

[modest talon]

SHELBY BABY WE’LL TAKE THAT

[bitter canopy]

Destroyer has a ram 2500

[subtle sinew]

Why are random so garbage

[cobalt oak]

destroyer would never post on the marathon reddit

[sterile wraith]

destroyer is the kind of guy to yell "NO REPLACEMENT FOR DISPLACEMENT" completely unironically

[deep lion]

Not even close, that man is driving a 1960 beater pickup truck with a tapedeck that has credence clearwater revival stuck in it, all the knobs are broken, it only plays at maximum volume at all times

[lean raptor]

Does anyone know why I always get assassin cores when I open a key room, when I’m playing assassin?

Reason why I’m asking - What affects the loot quality of the key rooms (besides rarity) as you’re opening it?

Because there’s obviously a reason why the containers do not show their quality to thief before the room is opened.

[plucky jay]

See imo Vandal is not someone bringing home much bacon, we have to consider the idea she probably drives a bit of a bucket of bolts

[grave dune]

brug i have to open another dire marsh key

[modest talon]

Destroyer has a fuckin Supra and zooms

[sterile wraith]

I feel like with what a speed demon daredevil she is and her mobility fixation she'd want something AWD and fast and high revving

[bitter canopy]

If there's any answer that's wrong, that's it

[jagged igloo]

what is going on with the 6 man teams

[tardy wraith]

Good thing or bad thing?

[dusky locust]

The reason why it doesn't show quality to Thief is because even purple keys can have mostly blue stuff in it.

[thin anchor]

Crouchies into snowball 🤷‍♂️

[cobalt oak]

it's simply the meta

[grave dune]

its a purple key so probably bad

[lean raptor]

This makes no sense

[jagged igloo]

no it's literally just 6v3v3

[dusky locust]

How does it make no sense? It's to avoid Thiefs not opening a key room because it wasn't a good roll.

[modest talon]

Running away from a 6man is the real horror experience you never wanted

[plucky jay]

Destroyer is a truck dude. Mid-90s F-150 with a bit of a stalling problem because the TFI unit is shot

[wind cradle]

you see the vision
you pull up next to destroyer at a light and he's got all the windows down blasting ccr or whatever on maximum volume and he's just looking dead ahead at the road not even reacting to you or the music coming from his own speakers at deafening volume

[rigid violet]

okay i’m down 400k today bad cryo weekend

[sterile wraith]

bah, i still see the man as a guy who likes muscle cars. he basically IS one

[lean raptor]

Sure, but how come I mostly get the cores and relevant implants, based on the shell I’m using too

[reef marsh]

sometimes the house wins

[modest talon]

Naw naw naw. He’s blasting Creed

HOLD ME DOWN IM 6 FEET FROM THE EDGE AND IM THINKIN

[rigid violet]

hey guys does anyone wanna have e-sx to make me feel better

[plucky jay]

Yeah but we’re also considering the angle of being broke here. EF Civic

[south umbra]

we can play 6?

[bitter canopy]

Hell yeah bro drives an SS

[sterile wraith]

we were? oh

[dusky locust]

That's just you seeing a pattern that isn't there. I get a lot of Assassin cores when no one on the team is an Assassin.

[lean raptor]

I promise it’s not. The loot in those rooms are not predetermined

[plucky jay]

For Vandal absolutely, does she seem like someone holding down stable employment

[rigid violet]

insert dude mining meme, i’ve still got 300k coins to gamble

[dusky locust]

You can test it yourself and make a YT video then? People will watch.

[wind cradle]

he is a muscle car guy, but he's got a 61 impala SS that stays in the garage at all times because he doesnt take it out anywhere except car shows and spends half his time tinkering with it and making sure it's perfect

he treats that car better than his own kids

[modest talon]

Vandal has a sleek motorcycle 100%

[dusky locust]

Thief can't see Armory rooms either so she can't find the best one.

[jaunty crystal]

nah she drives a subaru

[plucky jay]

Void: basically unemployable
Destroyer: military money
Recon: works in security
Thief: I mean this is self explanatory
Triage: doctor money
Vandal: broke

[wind cradle]

vandal and thief have matching motorcycles

[opaque roost]

Alright. I'm done adulting for today.

[jaunty anvil]

anyone want to play i dont have friends

[rigid violet]

that doesn’t make sense if she could see it once they’re open, i reckon the reason it’s hidden is to stop thief’s from being like “no goldens let’s reset” bleh bleh bleh

[dusky locust]

You're literally repeating what I just said?

[vital pivot]

You mean the ones that take 1 green key and 2 yellow?

[plucky jay]

(They have the title for neither one)

[jaunty crystal]

void is a uber eats driver

[modest talon]

Who’s void

OH ASSASSIN

[cobalt oak]

thief can't see in locked rooms for the Most Obvious Reason Ever

[plucky jay]

YES I love that

[rigid violet]

ohhh i just got what you meant, don’t be rude you potato, i will find you and tickle you

[toxic magnet]

how do u even get above 2k money leaving. im getting sick obn moniless runs.\

[dusky locust]

This guy thinks that the reason Thief can't see key rooms is because the loot inside is based on the shell you're using.

[winged imp]

key templates have a chancne to up tier right

[dark rampart]

What are you running?

[rigid violet]

yea 4% chance

[toxic magnet]

I dont wanna qwuit but this game is getting too much

[cobalt oak]

wow thats ass

[lyric bluff]

think I'd rather sell my cryo keys than give them to multi-teamers

[jaunty crystal]

I can see him stand in the corner of a mcd invisible with his phone up waiting for the order

[modest talon]

BOYS WHATS ROOK DRIVING

[rigid violet]

just run pinwheel

[jagged igloo]

yeah this is just not fun to play against lol

[long oasis]

if you go into cryo with a green shield you are 100% selling

[toxic magnet]

i play so many hours now and i cant get above 5k moni.

[wind cradle]

low rider.

[dark rampart]

You should free kit Outpost i think its the best to come up from nothing

[jaunty crystal]

rook is driving a corolla

[alpine crown]

I stared directly into the sun looking for answers for the past 20 minutes and based on the trajectory of the moon and sun... You could probably benefit from drinking more water and maybe a stretch sometime before bed or in the morning.

[modest talon]

ROOK DRIVES THAT BOX CAR THING THAT YOU SEE PPL RENTING

[rigid violet]

if you don’t know what you’re doing then maybe so but hell nah i’m green shield 50% of the time

[long oasis]

you are the problem.

[coral reef]

when can i get a jail purse?

[lucid locust]

Lmao bro I killed downed someone exfilling for the fun of it, tbaged and said “Go now my son, you are free” and let him exfill and dude just called me trash

[wind cradle]

rook is either just sprinting down the road or he's in the most pimped out lowrider impala known to man

[rigid violet]

i promise i’d wipe you even with grey shields 😭 it’s how you play not your gear

[hushed charm]

do you think Destroyer feels weird doing the sekiguchi quests

[jaunty crystal]

corolla or nissan altima depending on rooks mood

[ancient cairn]

hey guyz hows the runs going

[thin anchor]

100%

[plucky jay]

Working to this,

• void has a little money but not much. Moped.
• Destroyer has an F-150 (he does NOT fw General Motors) that he bought when he enlisted and has maintained well for the most part
• Recon has a Camry. Very low-profile, sensible car.
• Thief and Vandal have matching bikes. They do not have the title for either bike.
• Triage has a mid-level BMW estate that he bought because he wanted space but didn’t want an SUV

[still flicker]

finally a good player in chat

[modest talon]

Rook driving an Impala or Corolla or Civic ???

[opaque roost]

take a break

[hushed charm]

"runner you need to inject yourself with the ground up remains of your great grandfather and then get into a shootout with the cops while i study how it affects your internal organs"

[long oasis]

i mean sometimes i suppose but recon ping and a whole entire purple shield team is definitely not gonna be an easy fight

[plucky jay]

Rook gets a pedal bike

[alpine crown]

It's been a real knock out of the park 🏀

[wind cradle]

rook has a cartoon rocket strapped to the back of a stolen target shopping cart

[cobalt oak]

3 shield rarities difference when you hit 3 more smg bullets than them:

[jaunty crystal]

Void definetely a honda accord driver

[dark rampart]

Was it an old guy

[plucky jay]

Void an Altima driver fr

[rigid violet]

yea but that’s why you kill a team off spawn and take their shields 😉

[jaunty crystal]

What's wrong, vagueboy? afraid you're gonna SAY SOMETHING?

[rigid violet]

best loot stays in vault to be stared at

[dusky locust]

Were you playing Vandal?

[plucky jay]

Recon and Triage are the only married couple, as much as they have their respective cars they swap a lot

Triage takes the Toyota for late calls and the like, Recon takes the BMW for long drives and messes with the seat settings to Triage’s chagrin

[untold rock]

Have you considered maybe they ran out?

[wind cradle]

Orion drives around in a brand new black SUV with tinted windows so dark you can't see in from the outside.

[thorn trench]

i read into this, SPLA (southern poverty law assosication) was laundering money for those groups. Bungie gave a donation not realizing it was going to them

they give you rating points if you match cheaters and lose to them, but not gear

Every time I load into fills, I ask what is their favorite chinese food.

you know what im gonna change the Charter hearse idea a little bit
He has a chauffeur who drives the hearse for him, Charter himself lies down in a coffin in the back the entire ride.

[toxic magnet]

This game is so restricting broh. No duos, no solo sponsored... broh...

[reef marsh]

bro just said, "you can find hidden cheats here" and linked a website for some BS. idk if he got modded or it was deleted, but wanted to call out this loser so people stay away from him

[vital pivot]

Think I’m done with this game until season 2 just sold all of my vault because the skill level in this game just isn’t there rn with how bad utility

[still flicker]

why sell it if ur money goes too

[rigid violet]

this is actually my kit, my plan is usually to rush a spawn to kill a team whilst they’re clearing bots and then use their gear for the rest of the raid

[merry flame]

Bruh. What an absolute joke lol 😂 People should just get good, lmao

[azure urchin]

you cant do that anymore lole

[rigid violet]

you can, you just need level 2

[toxic magnet]

well duh

[merry flame]

frfr, sell Vandal, Thief and Recon feet pics instead. So much more profitable

[still flicker]

ok

[reef marsh]

yeah, sick of these rodents ruining the game. cheating for pixels, what even is the damn point

[toxic magnet]

all hail the grand spider

[modest talon]

Cheating for what

What’s the point, really?

[still flicker]

funniest discord basement dweller

[rigid violet]

the worst thing is, back in the day cheaters used to cheat openly, now they pretend they’re legit and fuel their ego 😭

[toxic magnet]

im gald u appriceate my humer

[merry flame]

Its genuinely pathetic, especially when there is no real gains. Marathon doesn't have an E-sports side, and the streamers are more or less fucking had it with them as well. So everyone hates them, they have nothing to gain, and they ruin the fun

[modest talon]

I’d feel so empty inside if I cheated my way to compiler, that’d be disgusting

[dim kestrel]

I got this red keycard what does it doo

[reef marsh]

robin hood complexes on cheaters is genuinely the weirdest thing in modern gaming, yeah

[azure urchin]

red keys on outpost allow you to exfil from restricted exfil sites or if you have 3 of them open the locked room in the center of pinwheel

[rigid violet]

i’ve been trash talked by cheaters 😭😭 like what ???

[merry flame]

Hell, the weapons aren't even worth anything, lmao. At least TF2 weapons are worth something

[dim kestrel]

Noo like for Cryo

[still flicker]

they want to feel whole by doing what their parents did to them to unsuspecting people

[jagged igloo]

controller players being able to track me perfectly as im thrusting adjacent to them is not fun

[modest talon]

The feeling of conquering the nightmare that is Cryo is just the best feeling in the world bro

[carmine totem]

So other people can't have it

[still flicker]

they wont have it ifnur not logging in

[rigid violet]

pc players thrusting instead of shooting their gun

[merry flame]

There is no reward for cheating in cryo, lol

[azure urchin]

like room key?

idk how that feeling exists when you cheat and dont actually clear it correctly

[modest talon]

Nono, I mean legit

[hollow cosmos]

Idk what this discussion has been but I AGREE SO MUCH

[still flicker]

another week of not touching cryo

[merry flame]

If someone wants to pretend that they are special because they cheated like a little bitch, then they are so deluded and up their own ass, they need their own psych ward

[rigid violet]

why not

[dim kestrel]

Yeah say lab 6

[azure urchin]

man i need to wait like 3 more hours for my friends to get on so i can go back into cryo im FIENDING to do more cryo

[long oasis]

two people can 100% do cryo. my third left and let’s just say that we got out and got richhh

guys, i literally cant get the riot blue skin for the wstr
i killed 2 uesc without reloading, d oesnt count
2 ticks, doesnt count

[austere cloak]

Oh thank god I finally got skinned

[merry flame]

ah

[still flicker]

idk what to do so why would anyone join me. even tho ive literally exfilled so many times!!!

[azure urchin]

thats a key for one of the vaults, you lucky af vault 6 is the rarest one by far but its also the hardest to do (other than 7 which is compiler)

[hollow cosmos]

Also like the surface effects r so good in the environment when r u gonna give me visibly sweaty vandal feet BUNGIE y r u deaf 2 ur customers’ fundamental needs BUNGIE

[jagged igloo]

trying key 6 as a new player in this meta is just donating it to a good team btw

[azure urchin]

dont try it as a new player then?

[still flicker]

try it as an old player

[hollow cosmos]

Dat me

[merry flame]

He's right. He's out of line, but he's right

I met so many new friends along the way in search of a compiler kill and when we finally got the kill last night, it felt unlike any other feat

[dim kestrel]

I’m not a new player I just never seen this thing before

[azure urchin]

get good first then do the vaults

[toxic magnet]

im gunna be racist to assassin shells breh. fuck u assassin players

[rigid violet]

the fills r bad, but i’ll be honest you gotta start igl’ing, i feel like im more successful when i have the fill literally kissing my ass the whole raid

[dim kestrel]

Seen all the other vaults and done them just was wondering what this was

[modest talon]

Btw if anyone died to tittymaster last night, sorry we were on a mission

[rigid violet]

a lot of the ‘bad ppl’ just need a lil leading and then it’s fine

[still flicker]

im not even bad i just dont even bother

[hollow cosmos]

its where they keep jimmy hoffa

[merry flame]

My advice, is never do Cryo until you have a squad who know what they are doing, and you have enough nades to ruin someone's life

[severe temple]

Agree

[plucky finch]

Reminds me of the time I got schooled by BootyTactics

I had two chads from this server join me last night to solo Outpost. We did very well. It's unfortunate that we got stuck inside pinwheel and had to give one of our team mates our loot

[long oasis]

yeah me and this guy took final on cryo which i didn’t even know final existed. so this was an eye opening experience

[rigid violet]

confidence will get you a lot of loot

[slender sun]

does anyone know how much further a bully SMG sound travels with/without a suppressor?

[river ridge]

It definitely did and does lol.

[merry flame]

Stacked teams also help

[long oasis]

i don’t think that works how you think it does. i believe weighted barrel or something else would be better as of range

[naive pine]

Getting this hilarious audio bug in the lobby where it sounds like a robot is ripping ass with electric farts

[rigid violet]

a team that knows what they’re doing is gooooood

[slender sun]

i want to shoot UESC without attracting sweatlord chad to my location

[merry flame]

I get the 10,000 Sponsor kits of outpost on my team every time I try playing

[rigid violet]

what map ?

[slender sun]

perimeter, but all maps mainly

just trying to figure out if suppressor actually makes a decent difference

[opaque roost]

oh it does

[long oasis]

then i recommend the blue nano suppressor

[rigid violet]

in like cryo and outpost i wouldn’t worry about noise because the sweats know the spawns already

[naive pine]

Which like man, I hope they put that same effort in learning something from a book or whatever

[rigid violet]

the game is their book 🥸

[long oasis]

ngl i wish i knew the map like they do. they act like they live in cryo 🥲

[opaque roost]

exfil with rook a couple times and go back with a suppressed bully

[thin anchor]

"We can go ahead and exfil so your quest gets done 😁"

What are we? 🥰

[rigid violet]

honestly it took me loads of losses to learn cryo

[naive pine]

My favorite book is Tetris, my favorite movie? Chicken Alfredo

[long oasis]

yeah that’s very understandable. it is definitely a learning experience

[tardy thicket]

so now every time I exfil I get into the crew with the others even if I don't want to?

[rigid violet]

“ggs bro” then you’re in the same lobby

[merry flame]

I love it how Marathon is getting double Destiny 2's player count rn

[dim ore]

that doesn't say much lol

[rigid violet]

honestly the map genuinely helps with learning the map lmao

you can see the little corridors that lead into which areas etc

[tardy thicket]

even if I don't want to stay in the same crew after exfil I have to?

[alpine crown]

What's the current count?

[merry flame]

10,000 for destiny, 18,000 on Marathon, but marathon will probably hit 20

[alpine crown]

On a Friday night 🫃 cool

Oh the misery, everybody wants to be my enemy 🥺

Last Flag? you mean concord 5?

[trim scaffold]

concord was just brink 3

[tardy wraith]

@lusty topaz You aint abt that life bruh

[merry flame]

If I see one more person compare Marathon to Concord, I will commit an attrocity so bad that Charter will actually kiss me on the lips

Marathon? You mean Last Flag .5?

[hearty wave]

what is the best gun right now gang

[jagged igloo]

not playing the game has negative infinite ttk

i think it might be a volt weapon

[main granite]

hi guys. just bought the game. i've seen the online sentiments about the game, but i think it looks super cool and bungie gunplay has always been great! i'm a solo player so wondering if any of y'all have any cool tips? 😄

[lusty topaz]

?

[alpine crown]

What a chill guy

[merry flame]

Bungie, give me a drinkable cheeseburger for all my friends and my life is yours

[solemn flume]

its kind of cheeky, but if youre running solo, assasin will make a lot of contracts easier

[main granite]

cool cool. i saw the player count dipping, hopefully bungie/sony doesn't pull the plug. personally, this game is more my style than arc

[merry flame]

I run assassin on Solo and randoms

[stable jungle]

There’s actually a whole YouTube channel called marathon solo play that should be able to give you some really good tips as a solo player

[silk pendant]

After that last update I can't play the game at high frames.....what did they do???

[hearty wave]

they installed mida malware in your pc

[silk pendant]

Kinda not funny at this point....

[jovial heart]

this discord is just full of people from that one comic that don't want the solution to a problem they just want to be mad.

[hearty wave]

but guys i need to know what gun has the shortest ttk now so bad

[opaque roost]

Playing solo assassin will make you a better Rook 🌈

[solemn flume]

pay no attention to that. the lead game dev has said that support is planned for awhile. i do hope they can get more players hooked bc i think the game is dope af

[jovial heart]

put stack overflow on the wstr

[opaque roost]

we are a couple players actually playin, chillin and havin a good time too

[merry flame]

In my defence, Lotus, I do it so I have some consistency in matches. The stealth gives me actual options when I'm dumped in with random people who are somehow level 30 and don't know how to use Triarge's drones, Vandals boosts, or Recon's search. If I'm in matches with people I know, I run Triarge as the ultimate team player

[green field]

Guys

I really like Marathon

It's a fun game to play with my friends 😎

[dark rampart]

Gold Ares since it ones taps to the head no matter the shield

[thin anchor]

I don't want to hear anything else about marton's player count 😒

[onyx canyon]

what do you mean?

[solemn flume]

the wall hacks are stronggggg

[main granite]

yea i mean i think the art style is super cool and i hope the game lasts. i could never get into arc (partially because it's a third person shooter). fingers crossed !

[opaque roost]

go on metacritic or opencritic, read about marathon, you ll see how gamers love this game and why

[main granite]

mm hmm. just a little worried that because of the dipping player count, the matchmaking may be tough for me as a rookie hehe

[wanton ibex]

The art style is cool but it's divisive. I'm sure it's turned a lot of people off to the game. It's also one of those that screenshots don't do justice I think.

[solemn flume]

i've gotten "elevated heart rate but youre inactive" warnings from my wearable while playing marathon -- those contracts and high value exfils can get the adrenaline going

[agile root]

nah, there’s newer players in lfg almost every day tbh

[main granite]

ohh okay that;s great then

[opaque roost]

compare player count to other pvpve extraction shooters

[alpine crown]

An art friend of mine low-key hates this games art

[reef marsh]

yes, the stay together function is forced

[solemn flume]

its level based, im sure you'll be fine. from what ive heard it doesnt really get uncomfortably sweaty until the level 90-100+ queues

[winged pendant]

There is a learning curve for sure, you just have to put the time in to learn the many countless decisions made during fights and everything

[main granite]

are queue times very long then?

[opaque roost]

not in NA

[solemn flume]

theyre not instant but totally fair. like 2-3 mins tops? (i should add im in NA)

[wanton ibex]

Queue times are fine in NA. It's other regions that are struggling

[daring canopy]

I want to kill the compiler

[pure umbra]

FIX GRENADE SPAM !!!

[agile root]

i’m 120-something NA-East, i never wait more than 1-2 minutes, even well into the late hours of night

[onyx canyon]

is the greenhouse key any good? i know its deluxe but is the room location shitty?

[main granite]

ye athat's what i was worried about. i'm in asia sigh

[scenic copper]

With the game's 2mil + budget, the future seems bleak. But I so hope the game survives and blooms

[exotic vessel]

it's sooo tuff tho

[pure umbra]

Hell nah would rather have wstr than this

[simple juniper]

Okay cat quest 3 may be better than cat quest 2

[opaque roost]

they have listened to the community so far and have a longterm plan

[exotic vessel]

true but grenades are tuff af

[merry flame]

Bungie should add the stock Halo 1 weapon pool and make them all obscenely OP

[onyx canyon]

i don't see what there is to fix. just don't get stuck in positions where you can get killed by that grenade spam.

[reef marsh]

it’s pretty shitty. most fighting tends to revolve around complex, intersection and algae ponds

so everyone will know you’re opening it if you don’t wipe the lobby first. unless everyone is fighting at maintenance or AI

[scenic copper]

Population is low but seems to stabilize at least

[jovial heart]

you gotta be asking how good it will be for season 2

[pure umbra]

Damage is way to high how can u run with 20 nades

[scenic copper]

I didnt play for a month, did Bungie lower the PvE difficulty a bit for solos?

[exotic vessel]

yes kinda in the first update to the game

[onyx canyon]

soo... damage is realistic....

[wanton ibex]

They reduced the health of the AI a few weeks ago if I recall

[opaque roost]

they already did

[jovial heart]

bungie nerfed pve once already and it did nothing good for the game

[simple juniper]

Remove all sprinting for console players they don’t need the extra hassle of managing aim assist and moving at the same time.

Go back to grenades, melee and gunplay as the core. Abilities remove em.

Get rid of extracting.

Make like circular small “arena” maps and have the weapons spawn on them in fixed timers.

Make youreself able to respawn.

250k concurrent users if they do this with the gunplay as is

[sharp yoke]

mostly just nerf frags imo

[coarse terrace]

I BEAT THE FUCKING COMPILERRRRRRRR (no carry, everyone first timing compiler)
SHOUTOUT #lfc-cryo-archive

tbf, cryo would be so much harder with old pve values lmfao

[exotic vessel]

bro just died on cryo to grenade spam

[pure umbra]

Then what’s the point in gun skill in the game if everyone is just going to bring 20 nades and spam them

[jovial heart]

Oh no! Anyways.

[onyx canyon]

like i said, dont get into situations where a grenade spam is that deadly???

[exotic vessel]

to kill players before they grenade spam you

[merry flame]

Make an update that removes classes, and replaces them with a green guy call Master Chief.

[austere cloak]

Just did a dire marsh run and didn't realize I was using a recon shell until I got skinned lmao

[unborn sundial]

I wish I could go to cryo and die to grenade spam but Bungie doesn’t want to make the cryo schedule alternate week to week so we can all play

[plucky finch]

This guy is fucking cooking here chat

[pure umbra]

Yall not in high level lobbies I can tell lol

[wanton ibex]

Will he have green shields?

[merry flame]

Release the new update that gives us an enemy faction called "The Covenant"

[exotic vessel]

[wanton ibex]

You're describing some new cool IP here bro. Hope someone makes this into reality

[pure umbra]

[exotic vessel]

i work 13 hour days and have 2 kids lmao

[naive depot]

a lot can be gained by simply not engaging

[still flicker]

if u hear someone walk away ❤️

[shell cove]

cryo need 1 oce aus

[vital pivot]

No it just needs to be nerfed because every person that either loses their gun fight results to spamming nades or they have no other way of fighting a team with guns so they nade spam and until they nerf it im sorry the game is gradually gonna land on its ass

[crimson inlet]

Why can't we do solo sponsored bruhhhh

[merry flame]

Grenade spam can be nerfed by doing 1 thing. Reduce the stack size of all grenade types to 1

[main granite]

guys anyone plays from south/south-east asia? :3

[naive depot]

can we wait to nerf grenades i still have 140 frags

[reef marsh]

this is the definition of a noob trap lol.

[scarlet field]

why cant we do solo compiler

[mild oracle]

21 matches ran, I feel like I know nothing
I like knowing nothing, I like th egame

[merry flame]

Next update we removing you from the game

[naive depot]

i'm nice!

[still flicker]

u can

[vital pivot]

Brother I’ve done 3 cryo runs absolutely shat on gold teams because they can’t win in gun engagements so the end result is nade spam in no way shape or form is that good for the game

[merry flame]

If you are so nice, why don't you give me 500 gold shields?

[proven anchor]

which vault have y done

[solemn flume]

Is the gold weapon/mod you get from Truth/Lies 6/6 Unsanctioned Hostilities 5/5 random?

[still flicker]

1

[naive depot]

i've already donated a few to cryo you could be the next lucky winner (i'm ass)

[coarse terrace]

if the traxus one isn't always a gold repeater, then i believe so

[merry flame]

(Same)

[still flicker]

i did 5 but we died to timer 😭😭

[reef marsh]

dude, im literally agreeing with you lol.

im telling you that your complaint with it, is a simple term. it's called a noob trap because noobs think they can spam it and succeed at the game. but it usually fails against better players, and as a result, creates toxicity because the usage rates are still high.

[solemn flume]

Oh sorry, I totally meant Unsanctioned Hostilities and I was asking about the gold repeater.

[proven anchor]

i need 6 where it att

[still flicker]

if ur dying to 10 grenades being thrown in the same corner then thTs in u

[naive depot]

seen one six in my entire life and lost it 5 mins into the match after doing 4 vaults back to back (in previous runs)

[reef marsh]

yes, grenade spam isn't even the meta. its still bubble rushing with gold mis.

but everyone is grenade spamming because they lost their wstr crutch and cant perform gold mis rushing. so its just nade spam city, and most people are consistently losing cryo as a result and complaining about it.

[solemn flume]

I got a gold repeater and was a bit underwhelmed

[proven anchor]

dude look in the xbox looking for group for marathon 😭😭😭😭 shit so dead everyone just doing 9 man compiler

[still flicker]

it shoots faster when u hit shots thats it

[naive depot]

double reload

[coarse terrace]

i mean it hits hard base, so increasing it's weakest stat greatly is pretty good imo

i'm not a precision shooter guy tho so not for me

[still flicker]

lets do it

[sudden oak]

i just dropped lasagna on my white shorts :/

[solemn flume]

Yeah, I mean it’s cool. I would have just preferred several other guns over it. I don’t mind precision rifles, it’s just not my fav.

[tough zealot]

still need?

[proven anchor]

shit a fight for the gold salvage at the end im good

[vital pivot]

Me and my team on 2 different runs dropped a team but couldn’t get full kills due to where we was and we was dropping them with guns and we wiped Because of nade spam something like this which is so easy to and takes no effort at all shouldn’t be outperforming guns or be a better option than shooting your gun

[still flicker]

i dont have anything but cryo to do in tbis game

[reef marsh]

so you had a skill issue in cleaning up kills then, get rekt tbh. dying to nade spam is entirely a skill issue.

it's like assassin invis, just an overall predictable playstyle.

[proven anchor]

i need 456 keys to do more compiler

I bought my kid a cheeseburger from Portillos and he was so excited because he loves it, but then I blended it and he just looked confused and asked me if I was trolling, nope, poured it out into a glass and put a thick straw in there and told him to drink it. A drinkable cheeseburger if you will. He kept asking if I was trolling him and I kept saying no, he started to cry and honestly it triggered me so I started yelling at him to just drink the cheeseburger. Why does being a parent have to be so stressful sometimes over the small stuff

[still flicker]

can you survive a joe baby lobby?

[vital pivot]

I mean bubble shield spam, chem nade and they threw heat nades mid fight I mean hardly a skill issue when the guy who’s got a gold shield is getting dropped by a blue shield in a primary fight

im not really interested in the video of your bad positioning and lack of capability to push a knock, especially two of them. but good luck in your next runs!

6 is in pinwheel, its just annoyingly rare

idek how to do it bro but if u want tomorrow i could try why not

i can't tomorrow bro I'm supposed to die then

It was entertaining. He would go down and I'd hear the smallest little yip. And then a bong rip, and then he'd be back up moving and grooving lol

[reef marsh]

forgot to respond, but i agree with this more than a hard nerf to how much you can hold.

maybe even make it so grenades all take up three slots individually, with this suggestion to really make the resource cost a trade off.

First of all biolens seeds suck so bad to find. You can find them in overflow on perimeter and greenhouse on dire I believe.

[final moat]

slick mag/ gold mizzy being the new waster is so funny

That's rough mayne. Hopefully those other tricks help. But regardless, Bungie should look into it.

[sudden oak]

do lockdowns on marsh, you get 2-3 almost every time

[quasi sonnet]

Just run cryo u can get 3 plus a game easy minimum

[tardy kayak]

more than that if you hit those level 3 locked room in the middle bit

[thin anchor]

I cannot stress this enough; No 🙂‍↕️

[fair matrix]

Ah yes. The 3 seeds that are so easy to find that I don't find.

[quasi sonnet]

Yea I’m talking about that room i always find at minimum 3 there and u only need clearance 2

[quasi sonnet]

One room drops like 3 a run consistently more if lucky I’ve had 5 in it and if not vip levels give them I would asssume from nucal

[tardy kayak]

when you do it, you gotta hit the rooms panopticon the middle one that needs level 3 to get in and the 2 side rooms on both sides have a super frequent spawn rate i always end up with 3 a run

[fair matrix]

General location?

[quasi sonnet]

Deadass once u learn cryo u can farm wtv u need

[quasi sonnet]

Outside of vault 1 the level 3 room u can get in from a vent with level 2 clearance that room drops like 3 plus consistently

Noted noted. Preciate it

[tardy kayak]

yea i had a 100k run last week where we hit literally everything and a vault it was really good

[rare pecan]

Im done with the game tbh. Cryo burned me out badly

[fair matrix]

I've not been playing cryo enough on account of my crippling cowardice. But I'm changing that

[tardy kayak]

shoot just bring a blue shield some grenades and a semi decent gun (bully is my recommendation) it’s how i learned that map when it came out

I’ve had 4 100k runs today alone I’ve wiped 3 lobby’s on cryo today as well

need dat i keep solo queuing and i end up with idiots lol had 2 people with greens when i had a gold yesterday

[quasi sonnet]

I run solo q only pretty much

[thin glen]

can run with blue kits just fine, they're not that expensive
you'd only really run into super juiced teams if your level is really high or you're also running a gold/red vault key (citation needed)

How hard is it to get the jist and feel of marathon. (Be able to actually know how to heal, kill people ect) i haven’t bought the game yet i dont know if i should

[still flicker]

if ur alr 84 youll be fine

[tardy kayak]

have you ever played tarkov or arc raiders

[mossy mango]

Play arc

[fair matrix]

Bet. Thx for the advice folks. Growing my spine and jumping back into cryo right now. But if I lose it's your fault and I'll never forgive you

[quasi sonnet]

Not hard game gives u everything u need it gives free kits which are good and rook which is fun

[tardy kayak]

you’ll be fine it’s pretty self explanatory and your already used to an extraction shooter esque game

[mossy mango]

The ui is a bit weird no?

[tardy kayak]

depends, tab is inventory and healing is the same as arc to an extent you just gotta learn what items do what and when to use say cardio boosts/mechanic kits etc

[coarse terrace]

that all depends on the person IMO
i had ZERO issue navigating things, but it might take around an hour or so to know where to find everything

[simple juniper]

If you have any second thoughts don’t buy. It will be going free to play sooner rather than later

[tardy kayak]

i wouldn’t say it’s hard to learn how to use the learning curve is pvp and positioning 100%

[quasi sonnet]

Menu ui lwk sucks esp factions

[mossy mango]

How long do you reckon?

[ebon bluff]

What are we thinking of cryo this week fellas

[tardy kayak]

is this confirmed or what cause this is news to me

[simple juniper]

Estimates are second season start, mid season or start of third season

[thin anchor]

Assassin players aren't real

[mossy mango]

So a couple months?

[plain sapphire]

guys…. i just ate 8 pulled pork sandwiches…

[past bane]

dummy sweaty, had equally great to terrible runs, so im just sitting broken even now

[simple juniper]

Insiders have leaked serious internal discussions on the subject

[hollow cosmos]

Typical vandal adjacent behavior

[coarse terrace]

that seems like way too soon
feel like we can't tell until the reception of second season

[glad cypress]

If u enjoy trial and error you will love it

[tardy kayak]

will raise player counts but also cheaters i guess it’ll be good in a sense

[cedar oxide]

if i were you id wait to see what updates come out before season 2, depending what they do the game will probably die within 6 months to a year

[rapid sail]

I honestly had no issues with understanding the UI, its very uniform and cohesive, the issue is most people dont like to read. Like at all

[plain sapphire]

i hav tumny ake…

[past bane]

🧢

[fair matrix]

Tell that to the very real knife stuck in my shell's back

[quasi sonnet]

I don’t like wstr nerf other than that it’s great

[mossy mango]

Someone said its going free to play? Is that true

[tardy kayak]

yea lowkey this, i’ve got 1k hours on tarkov and i feel like that ui is harder to understand then marathons

[glad cypress]

No

[simple juniper]

Yeah earliest is June 5th optimistically (or pesimistically depending on how you view it)

[thin anchor]

Real lol

[cedar oxide]

not true but it is bleeding players

[coarse terrace]

gold misriah and not using crew fill finally got me a compiler kill so i am a happy camper

[mossy mango]

Hmm that my change my choice of getting the game

[simple juniper]

I will find the video discussing free to play and the sources listed

[tardy kayak]

yea i’d like to watch and see because it could be good for the games player count but cheating will become a lot more common

[coarse terrace]

mr tassi ?

[hollow cosmos]

FOUND IM

[quasi sonnet]

Honestly it would be good for the game they just need to give compensation to everyone who bought the game.

[rapid sail]

They Assassins aren't real. They can't hurt you.

The Assassins response:

[cedar oxide]

the skins are terrible what could they give that would be worth it?

[cloud cedar]

teaming in cryo what a fun time

[mossy mango]

I found a video saying bungie denied it

[simple juniper]

yES. Paul Tassi article

[quasi sonnet]

We had a team talking in prox chat teaming on us shit was funny as hell hearing them they died ofc

[cloud cedar]

sorry i meant teaming in discord and not in prox chat

[vital mist]

is friends list bugged 4 any1 else??

[pastel kindle]

as a player coming from like a thousand or so hours of hunt i really cannot understand how they have equal playerbases, from what ive played so far (20 hours) i dont see why it isnt more popular?

[coarse terrace]

feel like i keep up with him every now and then, i'll look into it
would def be an interesting angle but whatever makes the game better

[quasi sonnet]

I knew what u meant teaming is cringe and sucks for sure

[tardy kayak]

for some reason like every popular figurehead online just hated on the game when it released and even the months prior and it kinda turned a huge possible player base away from trying it

[simple juniper]

I have a reaction of one guy to another video of a guy who goes over the article https://youtu.be/_FNYOccrOfE?si=lDSZe1gCyb6sxr7q

[quasi sonnet]

Tbh marketing for the game I haven’t seen any marketing at all besides streamers ig I don’t watch them tho.

[pastel kindle]

that sucks man this is definitely one of the better extractions shooters i have played

[jade hazel]

its because its bungie

destiny 2 was the best game ever and now its the worst game ever

[quasi sonnet]

That to everyone just decided to hate on it and thr art style isn’t for everyone as well

[vivid bridge]

any experienced cryo runners wanna help my buddy and I run some keys. We're very competent we just dont have a solid third. dm me if you wanna

[pastel kindle]

yeah i suppose it was a misplay to prioritise that when its such a volatile option

[lime roost]

I remember seeing some marathon ads on YT when it came out

[simple juniper]

I don’t see that happening but it’d be nice at this point I consider my money gone I got my monies worth I think

[tardy kayak]

yea me too, i’m convinced that player count won’t dip below 15k but the big boys at sony might pull the plug on it since it’s not pulling in arc raiders numbers like they had hoped

[quasi sonnet]

Honestly I saw the game on my steam page and clicked it and it looked like apex so I bought it

[alpine crown]

Destiny 2 must've had some super fans to call it the best game ever 😭

[pastel kindle]

yeah honestly a shame cause arc raiders is getting pretty stagnant for me at least as it is atm

[cedar oxide]

if you look at the steam achievements only 63% of players have extracted at least 7 times, so something is goin on where players arent staying but only bungie knows the raw data

[quasi sonnet]

I’ve got my money worth if the game shut down tmrw it would suck obv but u wouldn’t consider it a waste of money and I’ve blvd some bundles and deluxe

[coarse terrace]

ah, i finally found the article LOL
a bit misleading to say it's going on free to play!

he even says it shouldn't

[opaque roost]

on xbox there was a lot of ads when it came out

[simple juniper]

But it will

[tardy kayak]

the game is mismanaged unlike marathon so i kind of expect another wave of possible new players to pop up these next months

[quasi sonnet]

They did say they were planning to support it long term in an interview bungir knows how tor revive a game if anything look at destiny and they have a huge budget now

[spring idol]

This game would benefit greatly from a forge like mode where people can create their own maps and what not and even have pve exclusive experiences

[pastel kindle]

yeah i saw something about that, it also said that only like 20% or so of people have looted 770 containers which is just confusing to me how players could drop off like that when to me it seems much more in depth than arc

[tardy kayak]

i am actually quite impressed with bungie and how they are sticking to supporting this game despite the smaller player count, actively fixing bugs and doing balancing changes it’s a nice change of pace from how d2 was treated the last few years

[opaque roost]

sony said there was a long term plan for this game. Bungie probably planned stuff for 2 years

[north oar]

when youve been following a story for a decade i think most people would be a little bit invested

[simple juniper]

If you can stomach a pessimistic view of the current games you can gain some pragmatic insight into the problems of the game.

https://youtu.be/jszp9_ddN9Y?si=GkGczfS9hp_eOFG3

https://youtu.be/_FNYOccrOfE?si=OqZRV3sTCzWJvk0v

[jade hazel]

someone isnt a raider and it shows

[coarse terrace]

will look into it, i like to see all sides of discussion about it but every part of this topic seemed to dodge my timeline and everything

[simple juniper]

That first one is basically my view at this point 1:1, the second one if the video discussing the Paul tassi article (idk if I ated you for yhat)

[tardy kayak]

ah i’ve seen these before! the pinned comment on that first video is perfectly how i’d describe my views on the game

[quasi sonnet]

Yea but honestly there going way to hard w nerfs goo gun is useless pretty much now wstr got nerfed way to crazy. The one thing they really need to nerf is nades

[opaque roost]

go read different opinions on opencritic, thats what i did and i can say the passionate gamers really like this game

[simple juniper]

Yeah? Same here he does a great job like crystallizing the problems

[tardy kayak]

i think the wstr needed to be nerfed it shouldn’t have 2 shot purple shields but the goo gun probably should’ve been left alone or nerfed BARELY since it is such a late game and hard to acquire gun

[alpine crown]

Aye fair, I'm a bit disenchanted after being a fan of WoW since Warcraft 3 though. I can't even look at the game the same way

[tardy kayak]

even with the wstr nerf just have 3 shots in it pretty much negates the nerf all together

[north oar]

does WoW have a conclusion to their story? i thought they did

[whole granite]

Please shutdown the servers during 9-5 PST - running out of sick leave

[north oar]

anyways this is why the only two good mmos are osrs and ff14

[tardy kayak]

yea like obviously there are some problems but bungie seems to really be trying their hardest to fix it (to same extent)

[opaque roost]

played WoW intensely from the beginning, stopped after Pandaria, it just wasnt the same anymore

[subtle storm]

The problem is that its hard to acquire the first time, then its relatively easy to get

[quasi sonnet]

Goo gun needed a nerf but not that hard. Wstr needed a rework if anything it was only broken bc the maps allowed it to be u had to be kissing pretty much for it to 2 shot but it not being able to 2 shot blue shields at the least. Purple makes sense but it should kill blue shields. And then nerfed the mods on it. Now it’s just nade spam

[slim crescent]

i stopped playing WoW after the mrs left me (jk i didn't stop)

[tardy kayak]

can it really not 2 shot blues? i’ve been still doing that

[quasi sonnet]

Nope it doesn’t 2 shot blues it got nerfed way to hard

[subtle storm]

They were probably low hp

[simple juniper]

I’m not going to sugar coat it. With a game like this with the adoption it’s had, the video says it right if it was a small team with a small budget this would have been a massive success. But they had a huge budget and a huge team and..I don’t know if it’s salvageable from the financial hole

[tardy kayak]

yea i think honestly they should’ve reworked that instead of the gun and made some sort of increased difficulty once you’ve beaten it once

[atomic current]

Hear me out. What if we add The Trophy System from mw3 (2011) to stop the nade spam in cryo?

[tough crater]

i miss it sometimes :<

[opaque roost]

the trophy system idea is a good one

[tough crater]

it also doesnt 2 shot greens without a headshot :D

[mossy mango]

If 50/50 about the game if its going free to play i wont buy it if its staying pay for more than 5 months i buy it

[tardy kayak]

yea i dont remember the specific on how much the game cost but surely they made back a lot during launch? had 80k for a $40 game and a good amount paid $70 for the deluxe upgrade

[atomic current]

Surely in the future we have something that can destroy grenades mid air

[subtle storm]

Maybe a streak system, the more you beat it, the stronger it gets but the better loot you recieve

[quasi sonnet]

Yea it’s kinda sad that a knife can out dps it now

[simple juniper]

I’d wait for season twos start you’ll get a better idea of the roadmap then

[barren talon]

[alpine crown]

Yes kinda and not really. Some characters had a conclusion, some are just around because they're popular but the new writers don't know what to do with them... Anduin has PTSD, I haven't kept up since Shadow lands but people don't want to consider it canon and Blizzard might retcon the whole thing 😭

[wind cradle]

if this game gives us one more dire marsh key im gonna flip out NOBODY WANTS TO PLAY DIRE MARSHHHHHHHHHHH

[coarse terrace]

🙏 sentinel please
please save us sentinel please

[tardy kayak]

yea this would honestly have worked better

[mossy mango]

How long until that

[tough crater]

I DOOOOO

[quasi sonnet]

This but vault 5 keys for cryo I had like 12

[simple juniper]

250 million dollars for a 6 year development cycle I think minimum. Not counting any marketing costs In that figure. (Which were massive payouts to streamers)

[alpine crown]

Had a real "where my country gone" moment when I went back to the remix..never gave classic a shot, I knew I was chasing nostalgia

[subtle storm]

Yeah, why the hell are normal keys so rare? I don’t care about marathon keys

[atomic current]

No one wants to play against nade spam. Please add something like the The Trophy System 🙏

[tardy kayak]

yeesh 250 million?? i mean yea at most the game made 5 million at launch its not reaching 250 ever, thats insane

[quasi sonnet]

Not even that I’ve had some blue keys be better than my gold keys

[simple juniper]

It sold 1,4 million so far ish. They made like 50-70 million dollars

[coarse terrace]

i believe it made 50 according to alinea, but still a farcry from break even

[opaque roost]

a lot happened in gaming, im still surprised WoW survived

[quasi sonnet]

They need to either cap how many nades u can hold or put a delay between nades

[atomic current]

Doubt

[tardy kayak]

okay 50 is a lot better i’m assuming sony is willing to accept that but 250 million is genuinely absurd christ

i mean the game is extremely well made and i mean if they have 2 years of content pre planned i guess i could see it

[subtle storm]

Tbh I don’t know where that money went

[fallen echo]

it'd be more a long term thing to earn that back but yeah

[simple juniper]

That’s where the video seems to point, like for a small studio with a small budget this game as is would have been a really impressive feat

[opaque roost]

250 was to make a longterm online game, they probably planned something for at least 2 years. this is not like Concord

[obtuse grail]

Which chip mod do you guys recommend for LMG’s?

[brave bay]

i just got nade spammed 2 minutes into outpost bro

[alpine crown]

It's got player housing and some people said it's refreshing when I was listening to the news last year. Plot is focused more between the political relationships between horde and alliance now

[quasi sonnet]

6 years of development for a big team is a lot of money when they have to pay everyone

[tardy kayak]

i can assume 2 years of content is already modeled, has sounds, textured etc and has been stress tested and at that point i can see how 250 million was spent

[fallen echo]

6 years is a long time, you gotta pay hundreds of salaries, also any kind of server and software liscencing needed etc, concept art, real estate costs, utility costs, it all adds up in the end

[simple juniper]

That I have no idea on

[ebon bluff]

Cryo is a shithole rn with the recon stalemates

[opaque roost]

the new one is doing pretty good, i was impressed

[tardy kayak]

at the very least thought of and planned out in a thorough sense and like someone said above staff salaries must’ve been absurd

[coarse terrace]

the lion does not concern himself with being pinged

[cold kelp]

People are forgetting that Marathon was not even supposed to be an extraction shooter like EFT in the first place, they could not figure out how to make it work after firing the original director so they did the best with what they had which is what we got.

[dusky locust]

Okay, ya'll don't get it. They didn't go "okay lets do marathon here's 250 million", they had people on payroll and they decided to put them on Marathon. A significant chunk of development would've been iterating on the game, figuring out what it is instead.

[simple juniper]

Some of this game doesn’t make sense though, I don’t understand how they squared economics and projections for an extraction shooter with a budget like that

[subtle storm]

Yeah, but imo the game doesn’t really reflect that, I don’t have any knowledge in game development but sounds a little off

[alpine crown]

I'm glad someone enjoys it! I'm jaded on the idea of returning but I hope it's quality for the fans today

[scenic copper]

solo queues are getting longuer..

[cold kelp]

Was not originally an extraction shooter with fixed lobbies.

[dusky locust]

A significant chunk of that 250 million, Bungie was gonna spend because it was payroll. If not on Marathon, then on Destiny, or some other project. Big studios don't generally fire people when there's no work to do. They just find them work to do.

[sudden torrent]

what causes player loot to be scrap?

[tardy kayak]

i mean yea i guess, i wont deny that extraction shooters sell well, and im assuming sony saw how tarkov and arc raiders did and really wanted to dip their toes into the water of it (despite it being over saturated)

[simple juniper]

Very saturated niche market though

[tardy kayak]

i mean tarkov has made an absurd amount of money for how buggy and long it was in EA

[subtle storm]

Players collecting it from other dead players

[quasi sonnet]

Marathon has like 300 devs working on it average makes maybe 120k a year somewhere around that for 6 years that’s over180 million and then every other exspense game came out very fleshed out imo

[rapid sail]

Marathon is a diamond in the rough that shines so bright with the smallest amount of light. Despite the rage bait negative coverage, the media hate that I'd say borders on the line of sabotage, and development setbacks, the game somehow came out in a SOLID state and has maintained a nearly %90 positive review by players.

It's a never-before-seen scenario in the gaming industry. Survived through setbacks that other IP's would've been lost to the shadow realm from, media and critically high levels of hate from outsiders, AND IT HAS %88 POSITIVE REVIEWS?!

That's as high as other Game of the Year nominations percentages. The game is by all means a great experience. Developers are highly involved and not only being open to feedback but quickly and effectively responding to that input.

I've never seen a game that is by all means such an objectively good game with such a healthy and passionate team supporting it in such a commendable fashion, but get this much hate, and all of it from NOBODY even playing the game! Almost everyone that plays likes it!

WHAT IS THAT?!

[coarse terrace]

it was the first one (besides the division gamemode), wasn't it? makes sense
i was gonna get it back then but didn't have the pc for it

[merry flame]

More or less. People saying nades need to be completely reworked, or hard nerfed, don't really get why they are an issue. If you stay mobile, and aren't the most predictable player known to humankind, a lot of nades won't be that good

[simple juniper]

Yeah what a nightmare imagine what could have been

[dusky locust]

The real problem is devs take such a long time to actually make decisions and execute these days.

[subtle storm]

Probably because it was the first (or one of the firsts) of its genre

[dark yoke]

When’s the marathon dance dance revolution spin off I wanna hit the griddy as destroyer

[regal badger]

Why do ppl in solo's play like they’re getting money irl 😭 Just scary asf

[tardy kayak]

yea it was the first outside of the division stuff i’ve spent probably $300 on the game and don’t regret it at all but it is managed horribly compared to marathon and arc

[plucky finch]

Chat I just got a haircut but I'm not sure if I'm feeling it

[subtle storm]

Go bald

[cobalt oak]

I never feel my haircut on day 1 and then its fine

[shadow sage]

For the 4th day in a row since Tuesday patch I can’t play the game because their patch crashes the game every hour or so…

[still flicker]

Just u bro

[tardy kayak]

yea which is why the direction for extraction shooter is a bit odd but i still enjoy the game

[plucky finch]

This makes me feel better, thanks. I'll see what tomorrow or the day after brings.

[sullen bone]

yo wtf happened to the lfg

[still flicker]

still there

[cobalt oak]

its the same with other people like if u see someone shaved. just looks wrong for a bit

[simple juniper]

They have sabotaged their own game very well, no external assistance required. It’s a terrible casual gameplay loop. I won’t go into it watch this video if you care to understand the general consensus https://youtu.be/jszp9_ddN9Y?si=opAu89P-sk0ym8pD

[subtle storm]

Imo Marathon sounded more interesting as a team/hero shooter game

[tardy kayak]

yea the game is super sweaty and competitive for sure

[slim crescent]

"tell me how i feel about the game youtuber!" ignored

[simple juniper]

Likewise!

[coarse terrace]

would that survive the OW, rivals and deadlock comparisons

[fading fiber]

Well I just finished the first little tutorial but so far I enjoy the game

[slim crescent]

upboated!

[tardy kayak]

no i don’t think so lol

[subtle storm]

Idk, but I think it would’ve allowed for more combat flexibility

[tardy kayak]

OW is objectively the best team shooter game on the market and that won’t change at all anytime soon, i’m pretty sure it’s getting 300-400k concurrent right now from steam and blizzard launcher with consoles etc

[grizzled summit]

just hangin around

[dusky locust]

That was Matter, Marathon was always an extraction shooter, though they briefly tried it as a BR.

[coarse terrace]

exactly LOL, i wouldn't have even touched it
i got hooked from the art and the factions, then server slam trapped me in

if server slam was like rivals or OW, i would've just said i'm playing that instead (or deadlock but it's too moba to be involved in this conversation)

[simple juniper]

Part of me would have liked it like a halo clone for the modern era with hero abilities, a slayer arena.

But the other part of me wonders if that would even work these days. SPLITGATE had massive issues with player count comes to mind

[regal badger]

Had a thief try stealing shit and when I tried hunting her down she took off 🫩 like how’re you going to engage me first and then run away lmfao

[tardy kayak]

yea i won’t lie if marathon was a team shooter i dont think i would’ve played it as much as i do now, i play ow a lot and just cant see a majority of people leaving that

[cobalt oak]

the last 5 years give me no confidence that triple A arena shooters are meant to be these days

[simple juniper]

Though I probably enjoyed SPLITGATE a lot more looking back, than how marathon is currently, in terms of pure entertainment

[azure urchin]

are the cryo scanners fixed yet

[coarse terrace]

OW seems to be on a comeback too, so it would've been DOA 100% LOL

[grizzled summit]

splitgate 2 was just too easy, athough 2 was cleaner i think 1 was cooler and prettier

[cobalt oak]

splitgate 1 was the easiest fps ive ever played. didnt try 2 though

[regal badger]

Splitgate 2 is fun when you play it like Halo lmao

[simple juniper]

Meh I liked the halo plus portal gimmick I had fun

[tardy kayak]

yea as i said OW is the most played team shooter it’s like 70k on steam and probably 100k+ on blizzard launcher it’s like impossible to compete with especially since it’s made so well

[merry flame]

21k on Marathon rn :) Good job Bungie :)

[silver sorrel]

Whew, I love cryo, but yeah the nade spam needs to be addressed

[grizzled summit]

is 21k good or bad?

[jagged igloo]

recon needs a complete overhaul if they're gonna be making more maps like cryo

[blazing sedge]

If you see a dip its my fault im not playing rn

[rapid sail]

Bro needs someone to tell them how they're supposed to think and feel. What to like.

[mossy mango]

I cant see to find anyone who has confirmed the game is going free to play?

[cobalt oak]

does this mean the bungie tradition of overcorrecting is continuing strong

[dusky locust]

It's not?

[simple juniper]

Ah, you’re just a lone wolf, alternative opinions disregarded. Good luck with that attitude

[blazing sedge]

Maybe try using recon ult

[coarse terrace]

thankfully everyone in my lobbies seems to dump everything off rip, so i'm able to spave and play patient, but i feel like they' gonna limit the amount of each equipment

i wonder how things would go if they made nades able to affect friendlies (but this is def. not happening)

[subtle storm]

Mf giving a source for his opinions 😭

[native kernel]

this game is so exhausting bro

[merry flame]

Good. Very good. Marathon's peak was 77K on steam, and it's now at 21K. Additionally, we know steam is 70% of the player base, so the game actually has over 30K rn

[mossy mango]

You sure?

[jagged igloo]

she isn't busted op by any means but 2x recon meta is very real and has ruined cryo entirely

[past bane]

thats bc its all speculation

[subtle storm]

Yes

[mossy mango]

If 50/50 about the game if its going free to play i wont buy-it. if its staying payed for more than 5 months i buy it

[merry flame]

I love it :)

[cobalt oak]

🇮🇱 f2p marathon 🇮🇱

[coarse terrace]

heard murmurs about daily active users being quite high (around 400K; though data was from 2-3 weeks after launch)
could be that plenty people log in, do a couple runs and dip out (makes sense)

[native kernel]

I love it too but its so exhausting man

[runic sinew]

I dont see it

[regal badger]

Felt that on a spiritual level

[halcyon prairie]

what is a "superior" key?

[merry flame]

Who the heck made that claim?

[grizzled summit]

is it better for bungie to focus on marathon, d1 remastered, d2, or d3, right now?

[rapid sail]

Are you a fuckin bot or what

[mossy mango]

Someone on the discord said its going to be f2p on jun 5

[jagged igloo]

yeah game just is not worth playing at all right now, meta is just so fucking boring now

[past bane]

lots of people speculating basrd of the player drop drama

[dark rampart]

Marathon 5

[kind gorge]

Its not going F2P.

[merry flame]

That is not considered any form of a reputable source, lmao

[warped hare]

Anyone having server issues? Literally can’t find a game.

[jagged igloo]

it's actually just exhausting

[coarse terrace]

speak for yourself, i see everything on the internet as absolute truths

[mossy mango]

Thanks i might buy the game in a couple of hours

[opaque roost]

F2p marathon is fine. More preys to execute

[shadow sage]

It also crashes every 40 minutes since the previous patch so sort of fucked either way at this point

[native kernel]

cheaters will flood the servers more

[subtle storm]

Nobody ever said it was going to be free to play, just a shitty made up scenario by terminally online people, and if you want a game, just buy it

[lucid depot]

its fun for awhile

[trim scaffold]

f2p monetization 👀

[opaque roost]

Not on console

[jagged igloo]

honestly man I'd rather die to a cheater using their primary weapon than die to a real team spamming frags

[merry flame]

Just get it, tbh. I'm pretty sure it's on sale at the moment

[trim scaffold]

hate to break it to you but console can have cheaters bud, not necessarily in this game yet but in other games they absolutely show up

[coarse terrace]

jesus
must've been a bad streak
let it all out LOL

[jaunty crystal]

assassin, when played well. is the crew fill hero that causes chaos to premades

[opaque roost]

I dont care tbh

[jagged igloo]

I'm just fucking sick of seeing a teammate get knocked and hearing frags for the next 2 minutes

[past bane]

lets not avoid the fact that so much of public opinions are based on hiveminds fed by speculation

[mossy mango]

Yea it is

[subtle storm]

Smoke + WSTR was my main combo on cryo

[native kernel]

Like I love pvp and we win most of our fights but how much I have to fight every single game is so exhausting

[tardy kayak]

switch it to mistrah and it’s still viable

[opaque roost]

And my Xbox as been running this game beautifully. Never had any issues

[dry frigate]

That’s the uh fun part

[native kernel]

its fun for a few games and then it just gets annoying

[jagged igloo]

id rather vermin cheaters delete my loot from the game than nade spammers and 2x recon teams and I'm so fucking serious

[latent dew]

lfg 1 new player with me dm for inv

[subtle storm]

Nah, im in that stage where my aiming skills have became shit for this game

[visual stump]

Man the runners in this game really pmo

[lucid depot]

mine is a pc, the game never fully utilizes my gpus power its always 50% on usage, but the frame rate is fairly stable

[trim scaffold]

bro just plug in controller

[subtle storm]

pmo?

[coarse terrace]

real
there are some games where i just cannot find that aim god i knew i used to be

[native kernel]

Lobby wipe outpost > players are all blue shields loot is mid > go to red room and pinwheel, get nothing of substance besides a gold core. > exfil with loot worth a third of my loadout value, repeat.

[jagged igloo]

even when I win in cryo I feel angry with the shit I have to resort to just to win it's fucking annoying

[latent dew]

lfg 1 new player with me dm for inv

[regal badger]

Piss Me Off

[visual stump]

it's a contraction for piss(es) me off

[tardy kayak]

this is lowkey crazy what are you running cause when i use a purple on outpost i rarely run into anyone that doesn’t have a purple

[halcyon prairie]

i just hate this game like a lot

[rapid sail]

Back to my Shell.

Oh boy, here I go killing again!

[native kernel]

yeah we are running purple full kits

[cobalt oak]

trios pinwheel farming seems like poverty

[tardy kayak]

what level are you??

[jagged igloo]

lowk more fun than cryo atm

[severe temple]

Chat, what do you think about the Copperhead RF? After its slight buff and the Bully nerf, I’m really loving this weapon! Too bad it’s “rare” or a bit expensive, but I’d like your opinion

95 stacks levels are 95, 110, 121

If anything console cheating is more common w the zen it’s just not hardcore cheating

[merry flame]

Jamal and Squid are god tier players, who helped me out with outpost

[serene ibex]

do you think there is loot based matchmaking? to me it looks random

[subtle storm]

I missed a point blank WSTR today but somehow right after changing to The Finals, I managed to get headshots with 90% of my mag.

[cobalt oak]

with solo pinwheel at least its all for me

[opaque roost]

They gonna say you ragebait

[unkempt egret]

I’ve never been great at Marathon but today I am impressively worse than usual.

[regal badger]

It be like that

[coarse terrace]

cryo burnout made me revisit every map and solos instead of crew filling
i found out that it's way more fun than i dismissed them for

[tardy kayak]

to an extent yes, when i run green on dire marsh there’s normally one blue group and mostly greens, blue is one purple team mostly blues elsewhere but it varies hard

[jagged igloo]

it isn't you big dawg, if you aren't playing meta you're losing and it really stinks

[opaque roost]

You just said the truth.

[subtle storm]

I only have a shitty nintendo switch controller because my xbox 360 controller stopped working on my pc

[tardy kayak]

i’ve ran purples on dire marsh and ran into a lobby full of golds and purples and sometimes only blues

[coarse terrace]

i was always shit with the WSTR so i played mid range
i'm happy i don't get two tapped anymore and i do the tapping with misriah now tho

[pearl spindle]

what are the consequences of going controller instead of mnk

[unkempt egret]

I mean in this case it’s been sponsored Darsh so I think I just need to play a little smarter. Not saying meta isn’t a thing but it’s a more even playing field with free kits

[severe temple]

No, I’m serious 😂 I’ve been using it a lot, you should give it a chance. I’m not saying it randomly either I bring it into Comp and even into Cryo.

[jagged igloo]

I ain't even burnt out I have genuinely sunk most of my hours during cryo days but this week as been so fucking awful

your aim becomes a beam but you cant spin as fsst

[subtle storm]

I used to be a monster with assassin + WSTR, now I just run whatever I find

[pearl spindle]

truke...

[opaque roost]

Ive seen nice clips of players using copperhead in cryo and outperforming others

[crimson inlet]

Does your level influence the quality loot you find?

[jagged igloo]

I am so serious when I say goo gun spam in week 2/3 was more fun than what we have now

[thin glen]

no

[serene ibex]

idk I feel like there is level based mm + some kind of sbmm, we often run into both sponsored kits and fully kitted purple/gold guys in one game regardless of our gear
or maybe matchmaking is just failing

[coarse terrace]

yeah, that's what i meant
i went on an insanely tiliting loss streak

in fact, (barring this week, since i decided to stop crew filling) i haven't had a good week on cryo since the 1st/2nd week

[trim scaffold]

i liked the gold mod copperhead for the 30 seconds i used it before it ran out of bullets

[native kernel]

the only way it influences the quality of loot you find is the loot on players cause ur matches will have higher lvls too

[subtle storm]

No, but if you exfil with the anomaly cube from the Dire Marsh event, you get better salvage depending on your season level

I've gone like 3 weeks with 20 vaults opened or some ridiculous number without a DNA access card

[opaque roost]

Matchmaking is based on your season level and the loot you bring

[serene ibex]

true
our crew was looting cryo successfully for 2 and 3 weeks I think, the last two we never managed to exfil once, just keep getting wiped by ppl x2 x3 our level

I love running dire to get an RNG event that spawns every third game that has another chance to give me salvage i actually need
