[hollow yoke]

You unlock a seperate Ranked plus queue after reaching plat i think that is the cutoff

[buoyant vine]

Got too into the heat of the moment so I couldn’t record but I distinctly remember digging up a body bag’s m77 while I kept hearing nades being tossed and shors being fired 😭

[still flicker]

[trim scaffold]

[slender sun]

ok ill look again. the whole thing was blocked with a red forcefield

[sharp yoke]

sorry why would 5 purple templates reset each day? that would be insane

[acoustic fern]

When is the reset?

[hollow yoke]

i knew they didn't reset daily i was wondering if it was like weekly or smthn

[sharp yoke]

nope just 5 per account for the event luckily u can make them

[west light]

yes, the balcony and ladder are yellow, once inside, parkour across the lasers, one red box to destroy on the staircase, on the the bottom room on the right side

[proven anchor]

non ranked outpost is just gamer dads doing quests ive never seen worse players than today

[acoustic fern]

Or when is the fresh wipe?

[sharp yoke]

[buoyant vine]

Its the ps5 one with the logo slapped on the controller’s pad isn’t it

[still flicker]

[dark rampart]

They should build a Walmart on Perimeter

[west light]

same inputs expecting different results? the purple sharks are waiting just watch lmao

[zinc vector]

BURGERED

[spare gate]

Just lost my last two purples shields back to back.

Why do I even bother coming back.

[west light]

Gantry and Charter did not left an impression on you? You're missing some pretty good memes with the skips ngl

[hollow cosmos]

butt 2 butt

[lofty viper]

Has anyone gotten this game to run on Linux yet? Specifically Arch. I’m honestly about to ditch windows since CachyOS gives me such an insane performance boost in most titles.

[fickle wedge]

Of course you had to mention Arch

[olive oracle]

Hi! Marathon is not supported on a Linux OS.

[lofty viper]

Well yeah, that’s the distro I’m on. No shit I’d mention it

[spare gate]

Is Arc working in ARch?

[mellow pivot]

wow WSTR nerf actually made things worse... People started to use grenade spam even more after that....

[sharp yoke]

the only dude i know is orion because i was forced to watch the Cryo thing, he is def the coolest UESC is so cool

[fervent fossil]

It got nerfed? I just got a purple one, is it still usable?

[west light]

RUNNAH, PLANT A TAG ON THE WINDOWS USER KEYBOARD'S. LET'EM KNOW WHO'S IN CHARGE. MIDA IS WATCHEN

[lofty viper]

I’m not sure tbh i just made the swap a bit ago

[sharp yoke]

The UESC intro is so cool 😭

[sour elk]

its dog shit worst gun in game

[mellow pivot]

Yes it is usable with purple mods

[hollow cosmos]

Lmfao

[slender sun]

i made it lol!! thank you

[mellow pivot]

Bungie don't need to nerf weapons , they just need to nerf sweats. Restrict the amount of consumables per game .

[sharp yoke]

what lol

[ornate stirrup]

this games ina terrible place rn, outpost ranked is unplayable

[west light]

yes, the override of the interface like a hacker, so cool

[hollow cosmos]

No they must add MORE sweat specifically on Vandal’s feet jfc how wrongheaded of u

[buoyant vine]

ARE YOU KIDDING ME WE’RE GOING AGAINST GOLD

[mellow pivot]

Some people have 200 greandes in their vaults , 50 bubble shields and a gazillion of purple backpacks. This they can bring as many consumables as they want which is absolutely stupid

[west light]

me go mimir, have fun and don't forget to SKIN SKIN SKIN

[sharp yoke]

bro i need in ur games 😭

[ocean lake]

Anybody down to do some contracts?

[buoyant vine]

I just wanted to play marathon today son

[hollow cosmos]

No match 4 me w my green volt thrower 2 patch kits & 6 Cascadian electronics

AND AMMO CRATE as if all that weren’t enuff

[sharp yoke]

i really hate that i just sit on the main menu of this game so much 😭

[buoyant vine]

I will Try Again.

[sour cairn]

waster did need a nerf but the nerf implemented makes the gun p much useless, it was nerfed the wrong way and done too hard

[sharp yoke]

where u queueing

[buoyant vine]

The Outpost….But I’m already In

Hey am I justified to leave this game we’re all vandals

[thin anchor]

You better fuckin run that

[sharp yoke]

nah thats when u know its over and this has happened too much lfmao

[slow socket]

why am i seeing notifications in lfc but theres no new messages in the chat

[wind cradle]

i had a few really good outpost runs today turns out that an lmg even with just a green shield is exceptionally powerful in the tight spaces of pinwheel

[mellow pivot]

And it doesn't change anything, sweats will go spamming another weapon or consumable until it gets nerfed as well. So bungie should specifically make a game harder for these people. With the current player count you are guaranteed to have at least 1 team of sweats on the map in Cryo or Ranked game . I can excuse people abusing meta in ranked but in cryo ? WSTR wouldn't get nerfed if sweats wouldn't spam it in every game because they want to wipe the whole lobby....

[buoyant vine]

third partied.

[mellow pivot]

Is there even a hp difference between green and blue omg shield ?

[sharp yoke]

20 hp

[wind cradle]

the rarity affects how much hp the shield has iirc

[buoyant vine]

RUNNING OUTPOST AGAIN!

[sharp yoke]

bro this is NOT ur day 😭

[buoyant vine]

Which is funny cause today marked my 3rd cryo exfil

[mellow pivot]

What about demolition hmg shield does it have more ho than epic shield?

[dark rampart]

Run it again and again and again and again

[untold fiber]

if the reinforced shields take half damage according to their description, does that mean they measure up to a blue shield's durability?

[glass cipher]

i just got destroyed by a green shield assassin how didnt he die i pelted him with like 4 or 5 BRRT bursts 😭 i was purple shield hooooow. dawg apparently according to my teammate he survived a direct grenade blast + more gunfire

[sharp yoke]

oh u mean for LMGS? i dont think they have different HP

[clear sentinel]

Que up

[wind cradle]

honestly lmg shields were really good in pinwheel before the wstr nerf cause if the other team wasnt running stack overflow the shield would just eat the entire damage of the first shell and give you a fighting chance

[sharp yoke]

ya i think green reinforced is better then blue

[buoyant vine]

2 vandals and a destroyer

[slender sun]

one moment and love this game.. the next i hate it and tell myself i should uninstall. 2 hours later i want to play it again

[viral sierra]

no. It's 1 stack of 40 hp vs 2 stacks of 20 hp

[hoary bridge]

Imma make a special announcement,

If you’re team mate successfully pull off not only rezzing you but also turning a 1v3 fight into a 2v1 and allowing to loot one of the buddies…PLEASE actually finish looting and help your teammate so they can loot as well AND don’t be such a soft fish as to you leave for making a bad play.

[undone hatch]

snipers are meta now who wouldve thought

[wind cradle]

nope, its the same effective shields but instead of giving you a flat 20 more it just stretches the 20 you have in ur white shield to function like 40 shields and has better shield charge economy

[sharp yoke]

😭 what

[jaunty crystal]

ares*

[hoary bridge]

On god and everything that is holy PLEASE help your teammates….im not gonna get into it but yes i was that team mate that almost won that 1v3

[lime roost]

Imma make a special announcement,

Shadow the hedgehog is a bitch ass motherfucker-

[sharp yoke]

I will def be queueing up at some point tonight instead of being on my phone

[rigid violet]

attend lectures tomorrow or get rank up on marathon

[buoyant vine]

OH MY GOD WE DID IT WE KILLED 1 (ONE) TEAM and theyre looting their bodies instead of rezzing me

[sour cairn]

cryo archive is the endgame of marathon, it should be a "sweat map"

[sharp yoke]

😭

[rigid violet]

do you use vc

[sharp yoke]

squad fill members do this on purpose lolol (not rez)

[clear sentinel]

Rank up

[dense relic]

Lets you know who your real teammates are

[buoyant vine]

they STOLE MY BULLY SMG BRO

[rigid violet]

oh na ik tbh i was just asking

[mellow pivot]

It shouldn't because it has a compiler everyone should be able to beat a compiler. Also as a solo player I hate sweats ,since they always play in pre made teams so they have an advantage over me every single time....

[sharp yoke]

not the bully bro 🙁

[rigid violet]

damn i’d be fuming

[sour cairn]

bad bait

[proven anchor]

if my knife no regs one more time im uninstall

[buoyant vine]

THEY TRIPPED A MINE I WAS NEAR BY AT LOW HEALTH IM GOING TO END MY OWN TEAM

[thick scroll]

Not everyone is entitled to rewards they dont deserve

[desert spoke]

L ragebait

[violet wing]

had the wildest rodeo at the dormitories on outpost
whole lobby got killed

[sharp yoke]

why should everyone be able to beat the complier?

[rigid violet]

good thing about outpost ranked is once you kill every team, you got the map all to yourselves

no john rooks

[dusty mango]

hope more movement options get added to marathon stompee strand hunter may never be top for movement based play

[velvet fossil]

real

[violet wing]

this game *needs *to be more casual.

[sharp yoke]

my knife lunge doesnt do shit i swear

[violet wing]

u might wanna upgrade melee damage and get that sweet knife fight v67

[opaque roost]

This game needs players to diiiiie

[sullen cloud]

Had a Cryo run last night where like 3 teams were fighting the compiler and meanwhile me and my team were like “oh shit let’s just loot everything and leave”, it was awesome

[rigid violet]

you sure the compiler team didn’t wipe every team off the map

[sharp yoke]

? huh ive had that maxxed for weeks bro. im talking about my lunge not lunging

[warm oasis]

Hell ya Arachne for life brotha

[buoyant vine]

Killed the warden and saw a cryo prestige key just disappearin .1 seconds

[sullen cloud]

I was playing recon, I saw like 9 people up there lol

[violet wing]

stop larping bro🥀

[rigid violet]

vaccum teammates are ragebait
i like to take my time and read what i’m picking up

[sharp yoke]

bro what 😭

[opaque roost]

Killing casuals is a lifestyle

[warm oasis]

Casuals is when I can play with my food.

[coral cloak]

Bungie needs to add energy swords

[sharp yoke]

a redacted melee would go insane

[rigid violet]

did you end up getting level 5 👀

[spare gate]

I'm literally all out of games to play 😢

[proven anchor]

why do i get filled with two burger ass turd brains that i have blocked

[frail plume]

kind of a dumb question for a platinum player with 400 hours, but i've noticed i can't buy gold cores in the armory
it says "all cores must be ++ to purchase", but i've got all 6 shells with both green and blue cores unlocked in seki
there aren't any other cores to upgrade, is it a bug or does it mean you have to fill out the entire faction page?

[buoyant vine]

OPENING PINWHEEL ACCESS WITH DEPLETED SHIELDS NO HEALTH KITS BRO

[coral cloak]

Primary melee weapon when?

[sharp yoke]

run to destroyed wing

[rigid violet]

it’s the bottom thing like the I II III IV

[sullen cloud]

Nah, we got level 4 and went into a room with a bunch of purple weapons and loot, extracted with like 15-20k >:D

[simple juniper]

https://youtu.be/ScPREWINLeA

[buoyant vine]

we all just got shanked by a rook I think that’s the fate these teammates deserved

[rigid violet]

feels good to exfil on cryo 🙂

[north oar]

the gold core needs level 30/vip, the purple cores needs the final capstone unlock

[buoyant vine]

yeah screw you I’m glad you don’t exfil that cryo key not like you were even gonna see that vault anyways

[frail plume]

yeah, the armory says "unlock cores ++" but in the faction page it's called "core all"

[sharp yoke]

how is this happening lolol

[buoyant vine]

Watch me run solo and somehow get better loot than all of these runs

[hollow cosmos]

… wat

[sullen cloud]

It’s like the most relief I’ve ever felt in my life lol

[fierce bobcat]

meanwhile, doing Rook on DM, spawns at Complex…finds a random Outland lying on the ground

Uh…thanks random Runner team! I’ll be taking that

[void locust]

does everyone just play ranked these days? trying to find a group for pinwheel and it seems like everyone just wants ranked

[empty sentinel]

teaming is getting out of hand holy

[sharp yoke]

ya lfgs are normally just that

[scarlet phoenix]

Can someone explain does the wrst two shot with the slug rounds mod

[rigid violet]

nice to hear lmao

[empty sentinel]

3 ranked lobbies in a row

[sharp yoke]

yes it does. you must hit the head

[frail plume]

i'm just wondering what all these people are doing on dire marsh with no quests and no keys
like, do people ENJOY dire marsh on the down low? i mean, if there was some jungle trees to hang out in, maybe, but i absolute hate dire marsh more than any other map, especially when Complex and Maintenance have somehow become a "Cryo training simulator" with how much people still run bubble/nade/misriah in it

[scarlet phoenix]

Just to be specific, against yellow shield yes?

[spark pagoda]

It’s crazy how you can fight against the same cheating 2 stack 4 matches in a row. The anti cheat in this game is awful.

[sharp yoke]

spec yes, not sure about v2

[dusty mango]

so its like a chaperone or mindbenders? lol rather just slide in hit the body and meele dunno if that works in marathon tho lol

[north oar]

must be within 15 meters or less, 2 shots to the head

[sharp yoke]

assuming this is destiny talk, because of the silly names

[buoyant vine]

yes it is

[rigid violet]

i don’t understand how they can feel proud of their run knowing they cheated to win.

[ocean lake]

Anyone available to help with contracts?

[dusty mango]

all bungie guns have silly names even in marathon lol

[opaque roost]

I usually break the shield from a distance then slide in and knife or use shotty

[rigid violet]

if you run stack ove flow you can down from 20 meters with the slug rounds

[spark pagoda]

It’s just almost every game in ranked currently, especially when you’re nearing pinnacle. It’s crazy.

[sharp yoke]

"biotoxic disinjector"

[dusty mango]

that one is actually cool like whisper of the worm

[opaque roost]

wraith warden is perimeter aint it (overflow)

[warm oasis]

What happens if you drop the red card in outpost outside the map? Does it respawn or ?

[sharp yoke]

i cant so that lmfao

[civic kindle]

check out the LFG channel might have some people over there

[dusty mango]

thief movement tech looks like it might be on the same level of juking/ankle breaks as stompee hunters but vandal seems like the natural choice

[trail spruce]

gone forever

[opaque roost]

As an assassin I feel the thief is more unpredictable imo

[rigid violet]

brrrrr and drrrr

[tawny plover]

always

[trail spruce]

lowkey its destroyer with the tac sprint slide tech and the boosters

[undone hatch]

Crazy how now that the db is nerfed everyone is playing range with snipers and railguns lmao, more crying incoming in the next week or 2 to nerf them next

[sharp yoke]

more like misrah range

[warm oasis]

😈

[dusty mango]

hmmmm

[opaque roost]

I thought we were all using ARs SMGs and LMGs

[undone hatch]

The gun that doesn’t exist? 😂

[rocky cape]

crying already got snipers nerfed, but there's room for more I'm sure

[opaque roost]

Just dont nerf my pistols

[pliant sluice]

holy moly ranked is giga sweaty tonight

[mellow yarrow]

My Marathon hot take: Nerfing the WSTR shotgun = NOT A GOOD IDEA

[sharp yoke]

idk what to say to that , tau ceti gap

[undone hatch]

It wasn’t a good idea, people were mad a shotgun was performing like a shotgun

[zinc vector]

My hot take; this game is good!!!!!

[civic kindle]

i'll die on that hill. Could it have used a nerf sure, but not to the extent it is.

[lucid locust]

went to outpost free kitted and came back with 10k from pinwheel this game is fucking with me

[sharp yoke]

bro what lolol come on be real

[opaque roost]

Wstr was kinda annoying in places like the hauler thou. You needed it or you died.

[lucid locust]

this happened after a wave of bad luck today

@plush kestrel you good mud

Uninstalled and asked for refund. Spending all that time to get to cryo archives just too die from the countdown. This map is open only on weekends and asks you to run the rat maze in order to get out. Oh you ran around and got sec clearance 3 lets spawn an Exfill across the map. What a waste of time. Tired of these bungie Devs catering to the sweatiest of the sweats. I’m out. Watching gear that I spent multiple runs on along with weapons I’ve never seen before disappear because who TF knows how to get out of that frozen hell hole.im done with this game, i quit this game uninstalled and asked steam to delete it god finally im done with this game. done done done with this game, deleting all about this game. this game is bad, the worst ive played

[opaque roost]

Take care!

[plush kestrel]

Womp womp. Get gud

[sharp ember]

Thanks for the departure notice. Let us know you land safely

[opaque roost]

I dont even play cryo and I love this game

[ivory kite]

Found the unique blue conquest LMG. This thing rips. The starting rate of fire is MUCH faster and eventually ramps up to like copperhead level

[slender sun]

what is the difference between anti-virus pack and OS debug ?

[sharp ember]

Goodluck getting a refund if you made it to cryo tho lol.

[warm oasis]

You can ask steam to delete a game?

[ivory kite]

Antivirus allows you to traverse the red barrier in dire marsh lockdown events without damage. OS debug clears debuffs from hacking and EMP effects

[slender sun]

ohhhhhhh lmao i've been using the anti virus totally wrong then

[plush kestrel]

Virus pack also protects from toxic damage

no i dont like dire marsh i find to be the worst designed map in the game

You don't have to say it twice bro

[buoyant vine]

yeah bro this is not my day holy shit I’m quitting forever

cuz were playing bendy

[buoyant vine]

I have gained NOTHING

Have you tried picking up stuff

[plush kestrel]

Are you hitting the barter system or nah?

[hollow cosmos]

Well do I have a block of text 4 u

[warm oasis]

We all learned death is the true progress.

[ashen salmon]

how do pick up

[buoyant vine]

I can’t hit that if I can’t exfil son which I’ve been failing miserably at

[hollow cosmos]

u gotta do it w ur butt

[trim scaffold]

use your hands

[slender sun]

i had a day like the 3 or 4 days ago. 15 - 20 runs in a row not a single exfil, lost like half my vault. banned myself from using anymore items in my vault and just ran free kits for the next few days

[mental belfry]

I lowkey had no idea u could die in this game

[ashen salmon]

all eggcellent choices

[hollow cosmos]

False see above

[plush kestrel]

play a round or two with me. I'll see what you're issue is

[hollow cosmos]

There’s that cat again

[plush kestrel]

Stop lying. Nobody thinks you're cool lmao

[ashen salmon]

when we getting leaderboards so we can mass report

[mental belfry]

it was a joke

[hollow cosmos]

I do

[plush kestrel]

If I ever encounter Bingus I am forcing the entire lobby to stop fighting so we can all pet the cat

[sharp yoke]

same

[warm oasis]

Actually , I’ve seen players or runners . Legends say they never die. Not once. Only exfil’s top 1% .

[ashen salmon]

bruh momento\

[plush kestrel]

I know. I was joking too

(Insert Xavier Renegade Angel meme)

[buoyant vine]

my issue is that I NEED to get better and focus a bit more on upgrades I am Aware.

[warm granite]

Skill issue

[sharp yoke]

play rook on outpost but dont go anywhere near humans lol

[ashen salmon]

angle or debil

[quaint steppe]

Anyone know what the 4 grey circles in the top right corner mean?

[plush kestrel]

Literally just use NuCaloric and Arachne barters. You'll thank me later

[still flicker]

marathon is a stealth game ❤️

[sharp yoke]

Marathon is a waiting game and I cant wait

[opaque roost]

Or play solo assassin to get good with rook

[earnest ravine]

Yes it’s marathon not a sprint got to play slow

[buoyant vine]

I Probably Will

[plush kestrel]

Not when I play Destroyer with a decent loadout. Y'all need to run

[hollow cosmos]

went on a date today. she was not the one. didn’t understand when I pulled out the marathon steam charts. called me a “weirdo” for doing the important work of critical analysis on player counts every 30 minutes, sacrificing my time for the greater good. I bet she doesn’t even know I mod the /r/gaming subreddit at the same time. multitasking is nothing for me. but fine, leave.

[thin anchor]

In solos for sure

said from a vent while I wait for everyone to kill each other so I can go use my key

[buoyant vine]

Will report back

DISCLAIMER : I AM NOT RACIST

That being said, I just had the craziest run. We were with this black guy (he was black, do not argue me on this) and he kept playing the new "Black Snape" song that's been on Twitter all day.
We asked me if I would be his "Marathon Shawty" and I said no. He called me a b-word but we worked through the match.

When it was exfil time, he used his Thief to zip around the map and get to the exfil site before me and the Triage. He kept going in and out of the timer until it was almost zero as we tried to get there. So I screamed at him to stop and he said:
"Dang gurl. I just wanted to know if you had the balls to call me the n-word"
I said "Why would I call you the n-word?"
"Cause imma betray you on Cryo."
"That isn't a good reason to call someone the n-word"
"Then you die, b-word"

He got on the exfil (I assume he wasn't going to get back off this time) and with 4 seconds left on the clock an entire time dropped on him and shottied him to death.
Me and Triage had to backtrack because we lost clearance keys on the "black guy", but we exfilled.

I AM NOT RACIST! That guy was crazy.

[still flicker]

u dont understand

[candid drum]

I don't think I ever have actually

[plush whale]

Finally, I got to play a normal marathon game. I played all night and didn't encounter any cheaters, which was very enjoyable.

[still flicker]

ive seen bingus 3 times 🩷

[opaque roost]

It's a audio game

[plush kestrel]

Umm... Why did you need to add a disclaimer?

[hollow cosmos]

Goddamn I haven’t even once.

[limber raft]

It’s copy pasta

[candid drum]

What the heck, I've literally never encountered a cheater either

[still flicker]

marathon is a masterpiece ❤️

[plush kestrel]

Weirdly I've gotten the Felin1 but not seen Bingus

[gusty mesa]

Hey where do I go if I find a bug in the game ?

[valid stone]

went on a date today. didn't look good until i pulled out steamdb marathon charts and suddenly she started licking her lips like crazy and pushed me up against the wall, i didn't know what to do next so i started explaining dau and ccu and the next thing i know im on the ground in a V shape and the rest is history

[willow flower]

how many hours

[plush kestrel]

Oh, I'm dumb as fuck

[opaque roost]

I played other pvp stuff in the last days, but nothing feels as intense as Marathon

[plush whale]

This is certainly a good thing, but I always seem to encounter cheaters

[sharp yoke]

Perhaps a difference in opinion? The specific instance I was referring to an anecdotal story from a friend of mine whom was personally insulted by someone and called a loser and that they should "Go back to Arc Raters" (They don't even play Arc Raters) for expressing their frustration at not being able to experience the parts of the Vandals ass they wanted to, due to pvp (Said friend was very excited for vandals ass) Though it's my fault for not including that information.

I'll admit I got a little emotional, and maybe too ironic when I made that dumb mention of a "Malicious and dark heart" Which was meant to be mostly humorous, but I maintain that the people who want to experience Vandals unique ass and who have given as much support to Vandal ,deserve to have a chance at enjoying it

DISCLAIMER: Obviously not at the expense of the players who enjoy the Vandals ass as is!

I'm not suggesting any specific changes, nor do I have any in mind. But Vandal ass means a lot of different things to different people, it, and Vandals ass have a long and storied history, and people have followed it for many years! I think it's shallow to try and say these people "Shouldn't be here" Vandal, by it's own admission, have always wanted to have an ass that create stories. The PvP is also part of those stories of course, but it's not the only factor in them. The personal connections people make over the ass, the funny moments, the reactions to ass, or to the ass. So many things contribute to the ecosystem of the community.

We all want to love, enjoy, and experience Vandals ass, and there's no reason to be telling other people they don't have the right, don't deserve, or shouldn't be here.

Okay I have finished editing his comment

[lime roost]

Because he's not racist

[limber raft]

Yeah I forgot who originally said all that I think it was that Kay parson

[still flicker]

marathon is completely immersive 🙂

[plush whale]

This includes, but is not limited to, long-distance chases, beam bullets, shooting through bulletproof glass, and crouching down at me. It's hilarious.

[limber raft]

About PvP. I am an aggressive player and I want the developers to hear us.
Problem:
I feel like a player right now, I feel like a powerful being. Peaceful players are hiding from me like a rat all over the map. I can't even shoot players because a rat player decides it's time for them to run. Why do those who want to shoot people have an overflow of bullets to their desires than those who peacefully enjoy the game don’t mind hoarding free kits?
Idea:
Peaceful players, like rats under a cabinet, do not shoot people; they are safe and should be highlighted on the map for aggressive players!
Please add the "Peaceful" button to the player's properties on the main screen. The protection properties are the same as for teammates:
Absolute protection: the player cannot harm any people, and other aggressive person on the map should wall xim and injure this player with any weapon and finish them off.
This will allow all players to play on the same map together. Players who are killers can go about their business, while those who want to spend time in a friendly manner cant hide anymore. This is a win-win situation where players are equal in their desires.
We want to enjoy the post-apocalyptic atmosphere, feel the unity of friendly people against robots, and buy costumes. I don't need the stress of rats or the threat of a coward that make me want to leave the game

i need more asserts from oni in game like please.. please

[round roost]

the outpost ranked meta is fucking PAINFUL oh my god. the first team who goes to destroyed wing with thief drones wins; they steal holotags from other players and they get an unfathomably easily defensible location. players without holotags can't extract without losing score no matter how much good loot they have. fights end up getting corralled near destroyed as players try to regain their tags

[still flicker]

im sad tgat i only hear oni talk in solo games

L40-75ish, north america, MIC, hot comms, decent at pvp, doing everything, no drug users (they already have enough trouble in their life) / people that sound like zombies / dead inside / use the phrase "i dont give a shit"

[abstract wagon]

For me it depends on the type of game i wanna have. I generally dont like killing at exfil unless they attack or make me feel like i should prevent them from extracting

[opaque roost]

You should try reviving the rook and killing it a second time

[candid drum]

It's you, you are the monster who killed me despite being friendly.

Stop rook on rook violence

[warped kite]

Can Deluxe Key Templates randomly upgrade to superior, or is it just superior to prestige?

We didn’t even make it out alive as the timer ended but wow

That final quest in Outpost plays through the ENTIRE map. All through flight control and all. It's an insane one lol

[fossil cobalt]

Well. Standing on the exfil post in dire marsh during exfil will leave you behind.

We literally solo’d the entire map too

Im on a rtx4080, so should be able to run the game no problem. I have all the graphics settings on low, and dlss on performance, and only getting 80-90 fps. Even if I put everything on ultra is doesn’t really make a visual difference and fps doesn’t noticeably change. Anyone know why/how to fix?

no my friend, all you need are grenades. 😎

[subtle storm]

0 subroutines, 3 vault 5 keys

[sick elbow]

let's see how 3 goes

[fathom lotus]

Eh it’s only a couple batteries to get it. Shouldn’t be too tough

[buoyant vine]

WE MADE IT OUT. OH THANK GOD

[thorny stirrup]

thats just luck that you didnt cross paths with anyone

[midnight lance]

For those who are much more progressed. Do you still play perimeter?

[long oasis]

well yes absolutely, i mean atleast someone in your position should wants to do the keys of course, i wish you luck

[thorny stirrup]

its not hard to win a cryo fight with 0 grenades, just wait for the other team to waste them all

[fair lotus]

Yes for keys and templates

[fathom lotus]

Oh we 100% did, but we backed out both times. We even had to abandon 6 and redo it cause not enough time and the enemy was too aggro.

[midnight lance]

How often would you say?

[buoyant vine]

now I need to know how good is the v22 mod

[vestal torrent]

just brought a pestige key to gdire marsh and died to a cheater (game banned on steam profile)

lots of a balance issues but they will never be the group of people responsible for the balance of cole cassidy and roadhog. give me wstr all day, i prefer it

[fathom lotus]

It’s for sure fun, but we did it to prove that unemployed noobs can get to compiler without killing players.

They see that the META is to lobby wipe, then they quit cause they can’t do that. Meanwhile here we are lmao

[thorny stirrup]

I dont doubt its possible but I dont have the patience to play that slow, and killing players is the best way to get good loot

[subtle storm]

I’m finally getting better, at least now I trade instead of just dying

[junior mirage]

Thx

[sick elbow]

WRSTR AND BLUE DMR HELL YEAH

[subtle storm]

Dmr?

[fathom lotus]

Yea it’s best way to get keys, most fun imo too. However if you’re an average gamer who wants to beat the game, you have to ignore everyone saying lobby wipe.

i need a 1 hour timeout so i stop looking at this chat

[ionic hedge]

whats so addicting about this chat 😭

[tardy wraith]

When i get a keycard or looking for smth more chill which is pretty rare

[sharp yoke]

idk i just sit on the main menu of marathon debating if i wanna queue up tbhb

[fathom lotus]

Just say something offensive or political that’s not the popular take. Insta timeout 🔥

[ionic hedge]

dont, not worth

[candid drum]

Occasionally, I farm unstable diode for the barter.

That being said I'm not usually jumping into perimeter with Purple shields full kit or anything, just run free kits for that kinda stuff. No point gearing up for the kiddie pool

[sharp yoke]

i usally just type S_X and i get one hour timeout from auto mod so i dont sit here anymore and actually play

[tardy wraith]

Say smth unwoke

[ruby thunder]

how do you get the marathon badge on disc?

[subtle storm]

Just go do something productive or that you like, or you could also go to sleep

[candid drum]

I just mentioned a political figure here once because i actually witnessed randoms prox chat argue about the guy, and I got a time out

[icy ferry]

contracts are so insanely unfun this late in the wipe

[plush kestrel]

The Stryder is the DMR if you ask me

[tardy wraith]

If you don’t have them completed by level 50, you’re gonna have a way harder time.

what do YOU 🫵 guys think the Cradle is going to be in Season 2?? what do YOU 🫵 think would make for a cool new feature??

[icy ferry]

the season in june? at least over a month from now?

[fathom lotus]

If they’re <50, it’s as easy as it’s gonna get. Next wipe will be harder (unless they’re >50)

[sick elbow]

I did it
First purble item extracted

[plush kestrel]

Agreed. Helldivers 2 fuckin' sucks now. I uninstalled in favor of Marathon Infinity

[wispy drift]

Hope so

[ionic hedge]

helldivers was garbage for not having cross progression

[merry flame]

We need more Marathon maps

[plush kestrel]

April is almost over, fuck you mean?

[fathom lotus]

Just queue with someone new to the game. They put you in noob lobbies. They don’t force new players into high level lobbies m

[sharp yoke]

helldivers just sucked period lolol

[candid drum]

A decent story that tells me (long term franchise fan) where the hell this fits in post Marathon 3. Why the hell is Durandal back on the Marathon

[subtle storm]

Why does it suck? Wasn’t it being glazed like 3 months ago?

[icy ferry]

level 57 ig next season i'll just speedrun all of my contracts and have fun doing basically nothing else lol

[tardy wraith]

Helldivers fun. Just glad dat shit dont got fomo. Content will always be there.

[ionic hedge]

all right thats just wrong 😭 you should get ur timeout for that take

[plush kestrel]

Unpopular opinion but the names of the Magnum and the CE tactical should be swapped. This is because the heavy Magnum feels like the Halo CE pistol

[glass cipher]

I mean technically he should be a god by now since he fused with Thoth so clearly things are different

[merry flame]

From what I've seen, the devs decided to start being dumb

[candid drum]

It's still better then Halo currently

[sharp yoke]

ill time myself out for you

[icy ferry]

yea but "not even a month" is objectively incorrect lollll

[candid drum]

Has he escaped the heat death of the universe ?

[trim scaffold]

a bar so low you could crawl over it

[dark rampart]

Are you tryna do contracts in trios or solo?

[sharp yoke]

exp bar so lowwww

[fathom lotus]

You’re still in a decent spot, but yeah.. it’s gonna get harder.

We’ve tested it over and over. 150+ is always blue and purple shield queues. If I queue with a level 10, then it’s all greens and people don’t understand how a thief drone works lmfao

[merry flame]

We seem to be in a new timeline

[plush kestrel]

Horrible balancing, everything is in premium warbonds now, no buffs or reworks to older weapons and vehicles Cough cough EXOSUITS! COUGH Not to mention Super Helldive mode is just a joke now

[limpid halo]

imagine getting worked over twice in one match that you go to discord to look the person up that gave you the smack down @noble oracle

[icy ferry]

[fathom lotus]

I had someone do that for me and they got banned LOL

[candid drum]

The state of Halo makes me sad, a book series with a game every decade

For context on how much Halo effected my in my life, my daughter is named Cortana

[plush kestrel]

I meant to say not even 2 months, my bad

[slim crescent]

good evening fellow 'Thon blast havers

[limpid halo]

this guy just did it to me, i guess i report him?

[icy ferry]

random queue trios are allergic to helping me do contracts and solo queue makes me want to do sekgen contracts irl

[tardy wraith]

I hope they dont proceed with that Halo extraction shooter. Just make a regular Halo game bruh.

[sharp yoke]

thank god u changed that fuck ass luigi picture

[glass cipher]

no but the current game only takes a hundred years after the original, and if my memory serves me correctly, M2 and Infinity take places 17+ years after the original game, so by the point where we're running around on Tau Ceti IV, Durandal should be a god until the heat death of the universe

[plush kestrel]

Should I smoke a bowl, then shower, or shower then smoke a bowl...? Hmmm...

[dark rampart]

Do solos in your lobbies kill each other all the time? Im lvl 137 and everytime i play solos ppl beg me to not shoot them so they can do their quest😭

[merry flame]

have you guys seen the new Mynameisbyf video? It's quite interesting and raises the idea that this marathon game is actually a new timeline instead of the others.

[long oasis]

halo extraction game ? 😭

[tardy wraith]

You shouldve never said ts. Now i might actually go back.

[candid drum]

Then he has not escaped.

[fathom lotus]

Nah, the guy flamed and auto banned. I was free kit, took a drrvish, then he used it as a fallacy argument to not give me a shield recharger. So I threw it off the map and left. He was not happy LOL

[sharp yoke]

bowl into rook into bowl into rook into ranked

[subtle storm]

Idk, prob something related with the creation of shells, maybe an event to unlock the next shell? Probably every season is going to have a faction related event, carri is CyAc, so the cradle might be sekgen

[plush kestrel]

They just copying Bungie now

[long oasis]

shower then smoke. a clean body makes you feel better doing your activity

[tardy wraith]

Ye

[icy ferry]

my solos nobody does anything but sit in super obscure places, i just got out of a solo match where i didn't hear a single bullet for the first 8 minutes of it

[plush kestrel]

Fuck it, I'm doing both

[glass cipher]

oh wait SOME people online have theorized the Cradle is for customizing our shells, could be cool

[tawny plover]

lmao

[thin anchor]

Thank you for reminding me that my roaches have been piling up. I should deal with those

[subtle storm]

A bowl of what?

[candid drum]

Any mediocre programmer on the planet can use unreal to a certain extent, and Microsoft leans of third party contractor's hard.

So with that switch we should actually get Halo games regularly again.

They might not feel or look right I dunno, but they should actually ship now I guess

Well, they are def a lot stronger since they are no longer slaves

[long oasis]

genuinely speaking tho, like imma be the one to say it. if the extraction light continues we are gonna 100% see epic games take over the market for the feel regardless of what kind of extraction experience they give. i’m not trying to be the over hyper individual but i just know that epic games has the power to literally steal this entire genre

[plush kestrel]

We smokin' on dat Jarro-grown W'rkncacnter shadow dark evil pack. This was watered with the blood of 36 Phfor Hunters. Shit so purple it should be askin' me what ranked lobby I found it in. This that shit that killed the Rooks in Outpost, RIP dawg. GAMER. This will crack your Gold Shield. Premium levels of sour-

[candid drum]

Was it a generic pre made asset simulator game ?

[sharp yoke]

I can’t wait for the Disney extraction shooter. I’m not even fucking joking.

[glass cipher]

epic games ewwww they need to kill off the games launcher nobody uses it (jfc i need Alan Wake 2 on steam asap)

[fathom lotus]

I think it’s Bungie setting up power creep. They gave us the bottom of the barrel enemy and made it feel like fighting a god lmao

[long oasis]

see what i’m saying. like i love marathon don’t get me wrong i just know epic games has THAT MONEY 😭😭😭

[merry flame]

Yeah, but its very different to what they were in the old Marathon games, and seem to be embracing the concept of chaos and are fueled by consumption

[subtle storm]

Imma lace yo shi with some tox spores

[plush kestrel]

Oh fuck you, that was funny

I can confirm I'm at least half of those

Looool similar to an extent yea, diff game and vibe tho. I wanna finish it, but no one fully completes their dream game first. Besides, I have no idea how to setup the multiplayer sharing the RNG cards and whatnot.

You’d create each card, it wouldn’t be predetermined existing cards. I got super far into making it.. was fun

genuinely it’s probably either from the tox warden or dire marsh 😭😭😭

Hey man, I lost 15+ golds this weekend and I wanna cry about it, but we just move on

[slender sun]

where do you buyer the repeater?

[fathom lotus]

I lost my contraband today :)

[gritty lichen]

I lost 5 misriahs in a row and called it there

[plush kestrel]

We must work together to create anti-ragequit technology

OSHA doesn't fucking exist in the Marathon universe. We killed them to be able to make Traxus IV

[fringe hazel]

Now what

[candid drum]

OSHA is eternal. ❤️

[dreamy bobcat]

I've got that unique one that is in limbo in my vault for eternity

[sharp yoke]

what one from ai uplink?

[candid drum]

Why have gear if you don't use it, or flex it at least

[modest talon]

I’m assuming your vault 6 key? I gained a contraband today! (The goo gun)

[long oasis]

yeah i definitely enjoy the magnum more. just wish the repeater gets a fire rate buff in season two. i wanna get killed by it more and i wanna kill people’s more.

[obtuse hinge]

marathon 2025 should add an easter egg setting that makes your weapon model centered lik classic marathon

[dreamy bobcat]

couldn't possibly tell you, I ripped it out of an assassin's hands when he tried to exfil

[fathom lotus]

Nah, I ran multiple runs on outpost ranked with goo gun lol

#📽️run-clips message

[plush kestrel]

Also the scariest part of the Traxus IV disaster was that Traxus IV itself wasn't rampant, but quite literally chose to cut off the major systems to prevent other random AI from attacking it. Like wtf

[long oasis]

my flex is my blue thermal sight for my v11. i keep that thing like its a million dollars

[sharp yoke]

whats the name of the gun? can u put a chip mod on it

Ah nice, well shit if you got it before you’ll get it again my friend

[fathom lotus]

It’s worth nothing, especially when it wipes next month 😭

[sharp yoke]

yes the one u can put a chip on perma

[candid drum]

Vaults to shallow for that my friend, gotta let the loot flow, you only borrow it, the loot never belonged to you

[obtuse hinge]

OH SHIT YOU CAN?

Garbage dead game lol

we are gonna have a funeral the day before i wipe 🥲🥲

[plush kestrel]

Am I the only one who cares about this?

Yes its perma locked onn it after tho

[obtuse hinge]

i got it locked with sucker punch from th loot box

[dreamy bobcat]

misery disciple I believe

[scarlet storm]

how do you do the Stay Together with a group? I don't see a button for it on the post match screens

[candid drum]

Exfil it will automatically

[long oasis]

um you gotta make sure they don’t just instant leave after yall exfil.

[dreamy bobcat]

yeah but it hurts my soul when i lose it

[tawdry olive]

U can view players on steam, and friend them.

[scarlet storm]

oh it's on exfil, okay

[subtle storm]

Probably intended design that backfired, I’m not completely sure but Traxus IV might be related to Mida

[candid drum]

If you all eat it before forming the squad then you don't pair up.

[long oasis]

yeah if even one person dies and doesn’t exfil, you will be separated

[plush kestrel]

NO THEY ARE NOT RELATED. THEY LITERALLY WERE PRACTICALLY AT WAR

[candid drum]

Mida is right.

[dreamy bobcat]

runner go shit on a bed

[cerulean quartz]

If you see two dogs in the yard, just know I'm upstairs, going hard. 🗣️

[subtle storm]

Wasn’t there an in-game painting that theorized that Mida is a branch of Traxus?

[plush kestrel]

Also... It wasn't a sabotage... It means that Traxus IV was able to MAKE IT'S OWN DECISIONS

[candid drum]

Important work vandalism in a dead colony with no people on it

[dark rampart]

Nah this brought back flashbacks

JOE BYRON

[long oasis]

how do yall actually learn the lore in this game with how much death and poison plants there are. genuinely asking

[candid drum]

Well I was like ten I think playing Marathon proper.

[dreamy bobcat]

there's a codex, free up that inventory space for them valuables, take them from your teammates bodies

[sharp yoke]

love that pinwheel isnt openn till 10 min every rook run when ranked is out

[subtle storm]

Idk, just saw a reddit post, there are probably a lot of videos or communities talking about it

[mellow phoenix]

ahhhhh

[candid drum]

Yeah, whenever I rook and pinwheel isn't open I gotta wonder what the fuck they are doing

[dark rampart]

I should try Rook, need to lose my loadout first though

[plush kestrel]

No, however... No one knows the specific origins of the MIDA manifesto. It was simply found being spouted by rampant AIs amongst Martian citizens. According to one theory, rampant AI developed the MIDA philosophy as a means of ensuring it's survival

[long oasis]

okay so the valuable items are the lore? i genuinely only cared about my shrink wrapped bonsai trees 😭😭😭. after those idc about any valuable

[sharp yoke]

nah like lowkirkenuinely tf are u doing for 20 min on the outside pinwheel

[dim shoal]

how high do CARRI commendations stack?

[dreamy bobcat]

you've been missing out on that fresh tick milk, mhmmmmm delicious

[subtle storm]

MFs just did a revolution because their rock got stolen and Chat GPT said they were evil

[long oasis]

100 is a full stack i think

[coarse reef]

What if cyac was the only faction we didn’t have seasonally wiped?

[candid drum]

I have to imagine trying to wipe the lobby

[dim shoal]

@long oasis thank you

[subtle storm]

Nah, seems too op

[sharp yoke]

i dont see the point inn that unless u have a key and want to go up with CV in drone

[dreamy bobcat]

maybe they run the locked rooms outside?

[sharp yoke]

why is my free kit today an overrun bro

[candid drum]

I mean if you know the spawns for it or can just get in and out of the red room in pinwheel in five minutes

[plush kestrel]

Well... They ARE evil, but it's more than that... Early MIDA members in adolescent Martians wasn't coordinated strategy it was... Something else... Like not moving a muscle as a means of conserving energy, for instance

[long oasis]

i personally don’t care about keys at all in this game but you can get the template and exfil and make key

[lusty aurora]

Finally finished Parasitism 4/5, helped random teammate finish the cardio kick one where you go to EVERY POI. Me and one teammate are waiting at final exfil for third teammate, team comes blazing in and instagibs me, pulse blasts teammate of final exfil, it closes and no one gets out smh

[dark rampart]

Chat whats fill Outpost lookin like

[dreamy bobcat]

highkey an ass weapon when grey

[stuck shuttle]

Does anyone have any good tips on how to exfil successfully after unlocking and looting the superior key rooms on perimeter/dire marsh? My group has only gotten out once with like 5-7 keys now. Should we wait til mid game to open? Or just smash and grab?

[sharp yoke]

more free kits then perimeter

[dark rampart]

I need to lose

[coarse reef]

Wishful thinking fr.
Remember with pre upgrade fall damage felt like? 🤣

[sharp yoke]

don't open it too early, looting too slow, not having an escape exfil that you cann path to safely. making too much noise after keyroom and before

[long oasis]

if you go on fill outpost rn, i’m going in fully kitted. no thoughts only killing people

[dark rampart]

Queueing rn

[subtle storm]

Avoid fights and avoid making sound, try to get a clear route and stay out of open areas

[plush kestrel]

@subtle storm If there's no steady food supply, suddenly every motion or use of energy, even for expression, becomes a matter of choice. I recall in one piece of lore, it was mentioned that martian prisoners were observed unmoving before the Traxus outbreak. Not using the body for anything that wouldn't matter in the next 6 hours

[ionic hedge]

Did you do it

[sharp yoke]

no i cant i would be bored

[candid drum]

You will again

[plush kestrel]

Also the MIDA manifesto movement instructions were used as the basis for the VANDAL shell, fun fact

why cant rooks do contracts in lore tho then wouldnt make more sense to throw a million rooks at it?

[sick elbow]

This game is amazing

[brave bay]

rooks are more illegal

[opaque roost]

Marathon loves you ❤️

[long oasis]

genuinely think they are a runner shell that was originally uesc, because they have the conscious of a runner they can’t do the contract cause they look like uesc

[slender sun]

is it true that MIDA will be offering a credit line that you can borrow against? Supposedly your vault will be used as collateral and you can prioritize which items get liquidated first if you don't pay your bill on time. Your APR will go down each week if you make payments on time. You can also get your APR lowered by doing contracts

[solemn flume]

it explains it all explicitly in the codex

[sharp yoke]

I can not read

[runic star]

lol what

[long oasis]

wait it does?

[slim crescent]

you read that

[subtle storm]

Its like giving a random kid on the street a rock and telling him to infiltrate the Pentagon

[sharp yoke]

a million kids with rocks tho

[tough crater]

wipe waiting room

[pearl spindle]

just did a perimeter run and a whole three people died in some small hut with insane loot

[subtle storm]

They would kill each other with rocks before reaching the Pentagon to have a better reward

[dark rampart]

I lost🧍

[sharp yoke]

i frew up

[pearl spindle]

a million kids

[slender sun]

what did you exfil with?

[pearl spindle]

it is very funny that you think MIDA is in a position to be able to enforce debts

[long oasis]

rip

[atomic stag]

Arachne has a lien on my house

[pearl spindle]

a bunch of collectibles, some purple guns, a BUNCH of aid and upgrade mats, but we talkin three bodybags in a small bathroom

[subtle storm]

They would still kill each other to get more rocks and sell them for 0.001 Vietnamese Dongs

[slender sun]

nice! sometimes i find a lot of dead bodies in hauler late game

[solemn flume]

"Rooks are a simple tool used by Runners to pick at the edges of danger as tehy explore zones without the support of a crew or the advanced abilities available in a shell. despite their technological limitations, rooks offer a favorable risk/reward proposition for runners willing to enter a zone with limited utility"

and then goes on to explain their history,

"A ROOK frame is a scavenger's best friend. These base robotic frames are typically utilized by the UESC and various corporations for manual and heavy labor. RUNNERS have taken to augmenting these simple frames to house a limited-use neural sync adapter allowing the RUNNER to inhabit the ROOK for short periods without too much mental degradation. Because they are not SHELLS, each ROOK has only a small set of kit-bashed ABILITIES and fully lack the functionality to be upgraded via IMPLANTS and CORES. Though some variety of standard system upgrading can be achieved, a ROOK will never match the full complement of ABILITIES, comfort, and general utility inherent in more advanced bio-cybernetic SHELLS. "

HEAVY LABOR = MPREG

[slender sun]

i bet the last 2 guys traded kills with each other. i hate when that happens. the other day i traded kills with a guy, we both self res'd at the same time, but i got the 2nd kill lol

[pearl spindle]

idk but this was nothin but profit since i only went in with a ce pistol and a bag

[sharp yoke]

so what about a SHELL makes them able to do contracts and not ROOK?

[pearl spindle]

i think they are akin to cars in price due to how sophisticated it is

[sharp yoke]

so rook is too old and stupid to do contracts and SHELLS are not?

[candid drum]

Feels like Halo 3 melee trades

[plush kestrel]

Rooks are built using UESC parts

[pearl spindle]

probably on the money with that one. Rook frames seem like they just dont have the memory to also run contract software

[plush kestrel]

They're not made using the same tech as Sekiguchi biomata shells. They don't even do a full consciousness transfer, they don't provide a life experience or personality matrix @sharp yoke

[sharp yoke]

shouldnt they be able to walk though the red UESC doors then?

[modest talon]

………..

This is such a good question

[trim scaffold]

rook is just a silly little guy

[pearl spindle]

they can sniff the ghost in the shell

[plush kestrel]

Not exactly. They lack the specific programming. That being said, we don't know who programmed them

[modest talon]

Can they sniff me too ??

[solemn flume]

yeah afaik they have no biosynthetic components and special rigging was needed to allow conciousness transfer and its tenuous at best

[subtle storm]

Well, the signal only makes Rook invisible to UESC, but doesn’t make UESC see him as one of them

[long oasis]

holy shit. i didn’t know the lore was this deep

[sharp yoke]

in the rook trailer is seemed to more hack the surrounding bots to not see it rather then disguse itself as a UESC despite rooks voice lines in game

[ripe bobcat]

think abt it
if ur a guy giving out contracts, you want the best and brightest to do your dangerous and difficult mission
if you are organizing to have something delivered,
who would you let deliver your object
the guy with a pristine uhaul truck, or the man with a beat up 2002 nissan altima

[plush kestrel]

Correct! It is also worth noting, that the masking ability it possesses is recently developed technology that was randomly updated into the network by an unknown hacker. The Rook shells themselves have existed for an unknown amount of time

[solemn flume]

the marathon lore is definitely not lacking. one thing bungie IS good at doing is creating lore for games lacking narrative

[ripe bobcat]

I think its less about rook not being able to do contracts, and more that factions wont give out contracts to runners using rook shells

[plush kestrel]

Buddy, we haven't even gotten to Pthia yet

[trim scaffold]

i think its more that, again, rook is a silly little guy

[solemn flume]

yeah exactly. bc they lack the special abilties of runner shells, theyre mostly used for manual labor

[modest talon]

Rook is the friend you have on the passenger seat of ur car cuz he’s a pretty cool guy

[ripe bobcat]

true!!

[solemn flume]

he is a silly little guy. he kinda gives those artist marionette pose doll things

holy crap... there is a website documenting all of the lore within marathon that was created in 1995 and is still being updated today

WITH CREED BLASTING ON THE RADIO

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

[trim scaffold]

if you drop something for your teammate they can use it for that match

[plush kestrel]

Collective Soul playing loudly as he runs over a Thief

WOOOOOAAAAAHHHH HEAVEN, LET YOUR LIGHT SINE DOWN

[strong birch]

Yeah I know. I was wondering if there was a way to get around that so he can have it permanently

[trim scaffold]

only if you happen to get on the same solo match probably

[fallow hull]

What’re the currently team counts on the maps?

[modest talon]

Yeah, find the item during the raid and gift it to them then

[subtle storm]

Triage is probably an unc that likes fishing

[solemn flume]

depends on the playlist ig

[sharp yoke]

if i need 1k points to rank up do the extra points carry over to the next rank

[ripe bobcat]

ye

[plush kestrel]

Nah, Triage is your chill coworker who has zero enemies

[fallow hull]

I know dire marsh sponsored got lowered but curious about all of them

[modest talon]

Is ranked worth playing? I want to go after the skins but I never had fun in Perimeter or Dire Marsh

[plush kestrel]

Fuck, my songs are too niche

[plush kestrel]

It's not worth it bro, trust me

[sharp yoke]

just up to u tbh. it really doesnt matter

[glass cipher]

dude i saw someone earlier at lvl 243 or something

[solemn flume]

5, 6, and 4 on perimetere, darsh, and outpost (5 on darsh sponsored)

[ashen salmon]

Who got motion

[plush kestrel]

... Who's askin'

[modest talon]

I just feel like a fat fucking chud killing Compiler, but never played ranked

[plush kestrel]

You did what

[modest talon]

Ya I have Compiler on farm now :-)

[plush kestrel]

Teach me your ways.

I am not asking

[ashen salmon]

big daddy cane

[fallow hull]

Ty

[modest talon]

Don’t get phased by losses, use them as lessons and GO AGANE

Know when a fight is good/bad, disengaging is totally fine but if they give chase your team needs to deal with that at some point

Complete Map knowledge will literally save your ass

[long oasis]

getting absolutely blasted as a rook by three gold shield men on outpost 💀

[modest talon]

Scared money doesn’t make money, either you want it all or you get nothing should be the mentality

[sharp yoke]

cause were playing bendy

[warm oasis]

the only money i like is blood money

[frail plume]

do the CARRI faction rank packages ever reset or is that just once per season batch?

[plush kestrel]

Gang signs

[fallow hull]

Can you pickpocket the anomaly from people?

[plush kestrel]

Maybe. Try it

[fallow hull]

I’m gonna try.

[visual shore]

once per season? My dude, this is could be a one-time event.

[modest talon]

Does not reset, limited stock

[plush kestrel]

Don't be ridiculous

[modest talon]

You wanna know tech

You can use Thief drone to run the anomaly to the sample machine lmfao

[plush kestrel]

Imagine if you could attach claymores to a Destroyer shield

[modest talon]

I just gave away premium juice, don’t sleep on this

[frail plume]

was really hoping to grind up seki as much as possible, been hoaring CARRI points like nuts hoping each reset i could essentially just "buy a free VIP level", appreciate it, i assumed as much

[plush kestrel]

Bro I still haven't even finished Parasitism 1

[modest talon]

Brother I was on the same boat as you

I recommend spamming sponsored dire marsh while you still can and just run side contracts

If it’s a dogshit side contract, just reroll, rinse repeat

[storm yarrow]

When the wipe happens, does it reset our credits too?

[long oasis]

why do people try looting instead of killing the enemies before looting.

[frail plume]

you keep your library and your dresser

everything else goes, allegedly, as if you never played the game at all

[graceful pollen]

Ohh loot goblins !

Loot goblins like to loot and die right after

[silver sorrel]

"Don't loot in combat."

Literally every game, even MMOs

[long oasis]

exactly so
