I THINK it was the black cat spray icon and the black cat breach background. I was only lvl1 DAC when they sent them out.
The WSTR nerf kinda mitigated that a little bit. I’m not getting cut in half by sawed-off Lego Shotguns nearly as often.
Probably still bad on Solos though
Either those or the "meat" themed ones....the Not Not Meat icon and the 2XDCB background
Question
Cryo archive comes out in about 9 hours, correct?
No idea. I'm a solo....I won't experience it.
yes
damn they're inactive
Got it. I'll make sure my team will be there.
2XDCB is only for pinnacle runners who did the discord contracts. the breach protocol emblem/banner is for ppl who participated in any of the closed tests (alpha) and the beta.exe is for the server slam
10 pacific time so if you're on the east coast thats 1pm
wait cryo is only available in trios?
Me, out here, in europe
I got breach protocol but never played in any of the closed tests. Only the server slam.
no Rooks either
Guys, just had a blast idea ! I think marathon after this weekend of Cryo and Ranked launch could be ready for a 'Free Weekend' access ?! I believe we could bring in the people who are hesitant to spend 40+ on the game at the moment, but after weekend play, it could convince them! I would do it as a separate client on Steam though, so we avoid some bots spamming negative reviews etc.
brehs...
yessir with a 5k loadout buy in
i know. :/
really? interesting
they need to add a streets of tau ceti 4 map then what the eff
and IMO 5k will be far from enough to do content there 😄
I just want to kill a Compiler
breach protocol is the mida superdac emblem/banner
agreed lol my kit normally run 3k tbf and its a solid kit to
I feel like big mag lmgs might shine here, both cuz of the barrier but also for damage. Yeah snipers will be good but having a destroyer with an lmg seems like a decent play imo
Yeah I got them all...I know the "meat" themed ones and the black cat ones are the only ones marked as "promo rewards"...So I would guess one of those was for the last round of discord contracts before this current one.
haha, mine is a bit more, because shotgun already gets up to 3k alone, without anything else 😄
do you have the 2XDCB stuff? you’d have them if you did the discord contracts
Yep. Oh and the Worm ones were from the Twitch drops....forgot about those...also marked as "Promo Rewards"
a good full blue m77 and blue sheilds and heals does wonders lol but adding a shotty wouldnt be a bad idea
I just had a guy hold a timed quest item until we both couldnt do it. lol wtf man
yeah the twitch drops are promo rewards.. curious if the mida superdac/breach protocol’s source was changed from being a “prerelease playtest” reward
I just did a solo q, and killed 4 players with shotty inside Hauler 😄 First one random, but the next 3 kept rushing me 1 by 1 (all solos) 😄 Still a bit OP, because mostly you 2 shot them, as players had green shields
and they said they nerfed it 🤣
I dont mind having randoms that are not good players as long as it feels like we play as a team and communicate. Sometimes you get people that just go to the opposite side. At that point just play solo or something
think they nerfed range right? 😄 Those were close-range encounters, but yea.. still strong. Especially since many of the maps have close-quarters, where you NEED to go, if you want the loot. 😄
Still says the breach protocol is a "Marathon Pre release Play test" source.
curious. i wonder if the server slam counted as that
Still no way to obtain Full Alert emblem. Probably over the weekend with the twitch streams
as long as those bad players dont try and hoover up the loot from people i kill they can stay in the auto-fill trio lobbies lol they make great meat shields
I would guess so to be honest.
Thats me from today on! Solo players. Dont have any friends playing Marathon, so I was for 50hrs queuing as a Crew Fill. Terrible experience most of the time unfortunately - I bring good gear, get matched with freekits. Often they also 'snatch' the best loot from the kills I mostly contributed to, but because I have to heal and repair, they always run and loot the warden's, tox, etc. Also other runners.
Solo is way to go IMO. I just did a round today, and had a quite a blast. It is even more hyped, because you do not have any other to rely on when you bring on good gear that you may lose 😄
Would love to have better matchmaking tho - at least based on loadouts. Ranked will fix this, but still.. ranked will be only at weekend. Wish they could add loadout-based mathcmaking also for NOrmal runs
EXACTLY
Yeah, I feel as free kits should get matched with other free kits or very cheap loadouts. I';ve been on both sides, either get free kit players while Im fully geared up and being the only one that is free when the rest are full
I think matchmaking is MMR based mate
in general or in ranked?
In general
hey there @fresh ermine could you accept my friend request so i can message you real quick? i'm unable to message you without having you added.
if its just me i only go in trio's with a free loadout but i make that stuff work especially the mida sponsor kit
Nah fam there's no way that my shit ass is paired with ppl with purples
As far as I know, MMR will be used for Ranked mode. But for normal mode, I cannot say, I get matched too randomly in my 50hrs of gameplay. I noticed that sometimes they want to match my Level, but not even that happens often, and I get matched with beginners in game too.
I legitimately believe they are using a veiled MMR to match us, and might even be using a scoring system similar to the upcoming Ranked mode
also in terms of icons, did we get anything for hte most recent ARG
I think we read too much into it. What your infil kit is has nothing to do with it. You can be a stellar player but choose to run sponsored for a variety of reasons
ong i do not know how this game does its matchmaking yesterday i was being put in lobbies with lvl 12's, lvl 20's now it's lvl 50's and 80's
i hate getting free kit andys in my fill runs
Ofc, but why wouldnt you be then matched with other sponsored kits? Such players surely dont mind about that decision, and should respect that others are risking more with higher loadouts values.
MMW when it’s discovered that all playlists are guided by an ELO, you heard it here first (but I heard it elsewhere first)
sometimes we free kit andy's put in way more work then the kitted guys
No you wouldn’t. You’re giving too much credit to someone’s infil build
absolutely, but still, int hat case you shouldnt mind if you are matched with freekits only - as you all can put good work. Or what am I missing here? 😄
Might be a good idea generally, but I’m confident it doesn’t work like that. The matchmaking would be even more seemingly inconsistent than it is now
If I take a freekit, I dont expect to have purples in my team, and I am totally fine if I get matched with freekits. Heck, I would appreciate that! I feel bad going in with freekit to re-gear, and someone brings purple stuff with them
i wouldnt mind that at all but this game better stop putting me up against purple shield campers with snipers🤣 if its gonna do that
Ill do my best, but fact is, if there is a Shotty in those corners, I get one tapped.. while having a purple, they would need to at least reload the gun and a fighting chance 😄
I am still bad at getting good value of out exfils. I get full vault, but my exfil values to earn Credits is bad.. need to find better ways to farm Credits
If they ever allow for custom API or whatever, you’ll see— we’re all “ranked” something already
And the matchmaking is driven by that
yep, probably similar like Valorant and other competitive shooters have it.
Agreed
if your going in have a objective in mind i go in to make people into t-shirts after 1-2 teams exfil and sell everything ya dont want youll make a nice 4-15k per run off that
I think I shuold start selling also guns that I snatch from them
i currently got 180k in the wallet and 160k in a full 400 slot vault its not alot but a very comfortable amount
thats great, I am at.. 30k
oooff
60hrs on gametime.. 🙁
what level are you that might not be that bad
I believe I am 40 (not at the gaming pc atm)
im at 85 hours at level 55
IMO I am going to improve to focus ong etting contracts done and loot value. I am going to use some of my good gear and if I lose it, just freekit to get values back in
also a good way to farm money is just doing repeat contracts with free kits and once your one with it if you don't want to exfil just leave the match fast and efficient
selll the guns and rewards you dont want that the contracts give you
Gotcha. I think I am still building this 'extraction shooter' confidence play. I worry to much about my loadouts and losing it in games, but i see every good player just using almost th ebest they have, as that way they more out of the game by having advantage over other runners.
This also brings up the issue of if EVERYONE in the match is a free kit, no one can get any good loot from killing anyone else
very true
you can get the good loot from environment and objectives. Outpost has great loot in Pinwheel
Tiny quantities compared to the potential of 10+ geared players
Ofc, but the fact you intend to kill 10+ geared players with freekit, is wishful thinking too
yh my vault is stacked for cryo today
Could get a few
I assume us here in discord this applies, but maybe those more 'casual' ones, arent as sweaty and take freekit to do the contracts more safer 😄
homie if you are killling 10+ players youre not using the freekit anymore lol
youre using the remains of the other players loot to
Woke up and cant go back to sleep because of cry archive in 8 hours smh
Free kits often make contracts more dangerous because any UESC or player literally becomes more difficult
ive wiped a lobby plenty of times in trios when my whole team was free kits
Yeah tbh just buy a v11 and run triage
this man gets it
Yep
honestly freekits are fine, they still have ak nife and they give me cheap heals
as a triage main i approve this message
cryo is a fkn scam we get a fourth map but only get to play on the weekends that in my opinion is some bs telling us we have a map we have been waiting for since launch
I think given the circumstances the settlers were in, there wouldn't be suburbs or metropolitan areas. All of the people that were planet side were generations of scientists and engineers raised on the marathon . Very unlikely to see complex road networks and cities ( the colonists were wiped out before it could be formed)
yall can suck my arachnuts

Calling it now DLSS 5 will either end up being canceled or turned into actual upscaling and the GenAI part will be dropped
Hopefully there will be an update today for the crashing issues
I think it'll be dropped. There's people that like it and arguably trhe results look good but most people aren't with it/ don't want it
dlss can be improved on without adding generative ai to it( which was completely uncalled for in the first place)
Hard to argue that the ai slop art direction erasure looks good lol
no, the results objectively look good, the lighting, texture, etc. But most of the demos shown no longer have the same vibes as the games they're shown in
they're no longer the same games and same atmosphere with it
It changes textures, facial structures, materials, and gives every face studio lighting it looks like shit
I don't agree with the use, and think it needs to be canned, but some of the demos do look photoreal
doesn't mean they're an improvement, just that some of them look near real
the cyberpunk one looked like dogshit tbh
A select few still frames do sure but 99% of it is easy to discern as ai slop
agree its very detectable in being ai
Why does marathon not have a safe pocket?
probably because unlimited free kits make in unnessary with how common even the rare spawns are
I dont think I saw the cyberpunk one or if I did i wiped it from memory
if you dont see something you need on one run, or maybe you did but lost gear, just free kit up, and see it on your next run 🤷♂️
it'll make you sad you have eyes and that they were subjected to it
lot of folks were making fun of it on tiktok so probably got taken down lol
hey, if your geographical zone is empty (like mine ATM) you can use this app to change it
ExitLag
Because....Bungie didn't want to put one in.
Seeing all the queue time complaints makes me think the issue is going to be far worse on the weekend when the player base gets split even more for cryo and ranked mode. It'll likely impact areas that haven't felt it much yet. Not to mention the duo matchmaking which splits the player base even further.
I'm from the middle east (probably on EU servers) and already, pretty often, matchmaking takes between 3 to 5 minutes, some times even longer. But very rarely shorter than 2 minutes (solo), something has to be done
Because... robots have no butt holes
That too....lol
Hol up now, they're bio synthetic. I'm sure if you made a request to the silk mother she could whip up a personal shell
I'm sure all the vandal and thief simps have already put in a request
The current shells don't have safe pockets on their rear tho
On a different note, do y'all agree that Nona is cute? I hate bugs but Nona is the silk mother
She just cute 🤷♂️
I heard when the auto shell destruction begins, the system squeezes shell's butt so any item inside will shrink and break 😄
No.....Nona is creepy....and makes you do dumb shit....fuck that creepy ass moth
She's not a moth 🙄
I would gladly break my legs again for nona
She's like. "hey you're special....go do this REALLY dumb thing for me because....you know....special...."
What % of our player base do you think will participate in ranked mode? (I mean consistently, not just once)
what is it? 5%, 10%, 15%?
Oh sorry pre-moth worm thing....still creepy.
Not because she asked me to....because contracts are a thing to be done. Doesn't deter from the fact that she's creepy as fuck and the worst of all of the agents. She also gives least helpful upgrades.
Sorry, least AMOUNT of helpful upgrades.
Shes cute 🙄
Any way,
Shout out to the 5% of the player base who will be playing cryo and ranked mode! so we the normies can finally finish putting 12 salvage into the DCON and making some progress on our factions instead of getting thermal sniped out of spawn. 😄
If I see you hezi, it's on sight. I need easy matches 😡
Has anyone noticed that the Traxus armory screen butchers your FPS?
Just make sure to let me finish to dump my salvage into the fucking machine before you hit me, be polite
😡

On a real note though some of the fights my team gets thrown into are so chaotic. Every team involved going down several times each, rotating and still fighting. I bring extra heals everytime just to never have enough 😔
I can't imagine how absurd ranked is going to be
Heals and Ammo are the real prestige items in this game
Yeah since the last update people have been talking about it. Best to make a post using the instructions in #🪲bug-reporting
Cool, I was mostly checking if it's just me or not. Thanks
Dude I there were like, 4 other Rooks in the pinwheel this run we almost started taking the flastcreens off the walls
not even seeing the teams, just rooks a lot of the time
Soon Rooks are gonna start realizing if we move as a unit we can deadass wipe teams
Is there anywhere we can submit feedback for marathon?
"soon as rook realise they can not even 1v1, we have to become arc raiders final boss dont shoot party"
it'll never happen, rooks still usually shoot on sight
“this ain’t arc raiders” dudes don’t understand the comedic potential of forming an actual gaggle of Rooks and jumping a team
Y’all care so much about kills y’all suck the whimsy out of the game, half the time this game gets a laugh out of me it’s when a Rook does some dumb shit and I immediately fall in line
Gotta understand how to peep game and do something ridiculously ignorant with 1000% confidence
« Rook stink »
famous last words from someone who got sent to heaven with 640 claymores carefully placed down by Rooks Inc.
he aint lyin
The fun in this game is killing people in such a funny way they simply forget they lose their gear on death
I got droned last time and me and the dude who killed me started hysterically yelling at each other before going completely silent and staring at each other
Cryo in 7 hours
Hid in a vent with another Rook and we popped out to just stab a dude to death
Guy hops on Prox “You’re both dickheads”
His team killed us both but shoutout to the Butthead to my Beavis
I love ratting ONLY as Rook because you can pull funny plays
Dude I ran from a team and got downed by another rook so I snitched on him in prox chat😭
A thief tried to push me Apex style only to get a face surgery from my trusty ole claymore
Once things calmed down I went up to him and said « What did we learn now? » before bro quit 😭
Yelling his name and position before dying >>>>
Had a Destroyer walk into three separate claymores and I called him the runner behind the short bus
ive seen people insta die after downing them, from them probably doing escape > leave run, but that leaves me unable to get finisher siphoning shield recharge
Im deadass thinking about renaming myself « ROOK_RADIO » and blast music in prox chat as rook
I beatbox when I hide
It’s pretty good at pissing people off lmao
that’s funny as hell
I’ve had whole teams clearing a building looking for me while they’re telling me to shut up on prox😭
Rooks are too stupid to not kill eachother
no its just entertaining
on exfil sure ill down one just to scare them but ill let them out with me
sitting by the door in flight control and knifing anyone who tries open it >
Nothing entertaining about rook on rook violence. Breaks my heart.
They’re just scared little things
downing others to be sure they won’t finish you during exfil is the move tbh
I got eliminated with a fucking stabilized anomaly on Marsh once and I WILL skin every Triage main
I be rummaging people’s UESC trash at the Pinwheel doors on Rook idgaf bro
That’s how I get keycards sometimes
im getting home ill try to boot the game and see if I can get any fps improvements
so far my laptop runs it okay-ish
im straight up opening the doors for all the lazy trios who havent done it yet as rook
speedrun it, get the good stuff, leave, let the trios have the rest
No, my buddy and I brought the game and he can't play 🙁
2
yeah, seems like it
Best case, it causes all the sweats to move over and keeps them there enough to quiet down the wild deaths. Let me fight someone as we both miss half a mag pls.
🤣
I mean, what if you miss the first half of the mag and they miss the 2nd ?
worst case?
worst case it's actually decently balanced and more people engage so the non-ranked pool dilutes during weekends
Recon being focused on intel gathering and the only active intel gathering you have is a 4 minute cd ping that gives away your position is such shit design
weren't we discussing this last night too?
Idk were we
They run out of gear sweating up to plat then murder everyone in outpost for more gear outside ranked
Good for finding where the enemy recon is though. 🤣
Should her tac have a shorter cooldown and a ping but deal less damage so you can.... use it to gather intel instead of dealing damage on an enemy you know is there already
Recon could have a passive that alerts you if you’re being ads’d (on a cooldown)
And maybe make her footstep trait an active ability that last like 8 seconds instead of on shield break
Like I have no way to gain Intel that doesnt give away my position while theif has a drone that can just do whatever the fuck it wants
Excluding the Rook for a second, If right now we have 2 male shells, 3 female shells and an Assassin, meaning, the next shell update will be a male?
Yeah but recon is good at stopping the 3rd party during ult cause the 3rd can see the pulse and doesn’t want to be found
Dumb question: Is there any way for rooks to talk to one another without using prox
?? Assassin is a male tho?
Assassin is definitely both lol (the voice is masculine tho) it's the woke character
No
Any tips for a new player? I cant seem to do one extract right everyone has much better gear than i do
assassin is one and only deus ex voice actor
does anybody knows why this server has no voice channels ?
Adam Jensen
Yeah idk man technically none of the shells have genders and can be both male and female depending on who's in it so
God how are fill players this bad
My bad, my 2.5 kd in destiny isnt translating to this game for some reason
The fills are the solos who can’t get extracts so they assume trio fill is better than solos. But change nothing about how they play.
hello marathoners
No cap im actually ass at this game
At least fill runs are a great vault cleaner
Got a lot of blues I’m about to sink
lol not exactly. There are pure female and pure male notes. But you know bungie, they love to add the blured ones too, hense - Assassin
have you been using a v11
Assassin players are sleepy tho…
Its my best dueler but instead of a v11, sekiguchi wants to give me the volt thrower
NOT THE WOKE CHARACTERS OH NO 😱
Look at assasinns legs, the nails on the fingers, the lips, the waist movement, come on haha
😐
I think you missed the guy last night complaining that he got sniped 150m with a v11 =))
my responce was sarcasm btw if it wasnt obvious
Meanwhile my v11 bolts seemingly disappear as I try to shoot the UESC bot 100 meters away thats standing still
guy had issues anyway
Assassins are g...
why you think they dissapear and come behind you?
Volt weapons have the craziest rng ttk i swear
legend
I did beat someone with a WSTR using the Volt Thrower yesterday, the tracking and the low accuracy penalty while moving helps
You can get a V11 from bots pretty easily in either case
NERF MELEE INTO THE GROUND, DOG SHIT NO SKILL FUCKING BS
Melee is shit tho, literally everyone has a wstr
wstr should win 100%
It does
If you hit your shots yeah
if wstr misses one shot, melee wins
Me when green shield
up till purple shield
Idk what’s wstr point blank for the terminal dash? You should be able to just punch for the kill
No I mean the guy meleeing is green
ah lol
Wstr does 150 dont it
Most melee is 2H, dash right at you, full shot press quick melee kill.
Idk punch exact it’s at least 45
Also like even if your 1 wstr shot doesnt kill, people seem to forget quick melee exists
I’ve literally never used it on a player tbh
punch is low dmg compared to knife heavy
Yes and you should have an advantage from the full shotgun shot into their face
Ok but slap on the melee chip and 1-2 hurts like a bitch
I need to try that yeah
Also melee is a fairly heavy commitment, and you are letting the other person get away with it tbh, like you could just walk backwards and shoot them or not hold the angle close without your knife
Tbf I had a destroyer run up on me and 3 light me while I hit every shot with a scar :(
I got outplayed
But you don’t lose your fist or knife.
Indeed you should have had a shotgun
Lowkey remove snipers and shotguns
I’m tired chief, you don’t even fight people
Alright died twice in fills, made vault space
Splendid
I havent died to a sniper and shotguns have only killed me in shotgun range 
I never die when I load out with a sponsored kit.
I definitely got overconfident for an extraction shooter but also it’s just an obnoxious amount of mental load (fog) and you do have to expose yourself.
Rook is a melee demon because of the claymores wait for the team to split up and bait the first guy around a corner and pop a claymore right before he comes around, heavy melee and he's down, another and he's dead. Double claymore his box and chill around the corner, both of his teammates push together thinking they'll get you if the guy you killed gets Triage'd he dies instantly to double claymore. If they don't have triage the guy who goes for revive dies the third will either push or hold an angle if he pushes he dies to melee if he holds an angle use your gun to finish the guy that got claymore'd and now it's a 1v1
Feeding the loot economy and getting shit out of my vault
I’m doing my part
I also just find sniper peeking less interesting than most gun peeking
LFG dire/outpost runs pvp and farming mats lvl 104 atm
Embrace your inner slasher villain on rook today ty for attending my Ted talk
104 😭
I stab other rooks resulting in trade then jump down the vent
I crawled into a tox clear so another Rook couldn’t have my purple salvage
Fuck that guy
how do we get the marathon starter kit they said u could get?
Rook has health regen ult lmao ur purp shit got grabbed
It'll pop up when marathon opens
Actually, why the fuck do people not finish?
everyone gets it for free? i thought it had to do with something in the discord
They do in my sweatass lobbies
Do they think the extra 1/2 second of exposure isn’t worth 50 rep?
It doesn't heal when you take damage tho
No they do it with guns, like nobody knows about Arachne rep
Go in and take the damage then wait for the tox status to clear n pop ult young blood
Yeah you can do tox with meds iirc
GRAHHHHH 6 HOURS TILL CRYO NO SLEEP TILL CRYO
Unfortunately gotta wait a few hours
My lobbies feature finishers for siphon
Boutta throw this loadout away on outpost so I can have fun on rook somebody might be about to get very lucky
It’s not uncommon, but legit 40% of the time the last person in my squad downed is not finished.
Almost queued fills would've been a big mistake
Gonna start ripping the big Bee Oh En Gee on prox chat
Gotta get some reggae playing in the back
how many players are on outpost in solo ?
oops wrong chat
I do with Joe mama 🫡
Im actually a thief main is that ok ?
Destroyers when they push a fully kitted team 🤤
Yes
LESBIANISM WILL MAKE ME GOD
12
Destroyers are really freaky
I feel like god when I engage with search and destroy active
the missiles.... they do so much damage
pinwheel is small but is full of small hallways and with the crazy good loot.... everyone is there
What happens when u escape then?!?!?!?!
God²
He becomes dog
it could well be lower than that but I'd say solos is always ~8-12 players depending on map? maybe more, but I've never found all the bodies
"Escape will make me bark" 😭
Hell nah 😩 ( unless thief is around )
When the rook run gives me a punch (1v3 in my future)
hmm is there any way to squeeze out more fps in running an rtx 3060 laptop version with r7 5800h im getting like 60 to 70fps on the lowest settings
Overclock yo shit n fry the laptop then move to desktop where overclocking won't destroy components (if done properly)
Should get more but if youre CPU bound rn theres not really much you can do until bungie optimizes better hardware
They said theyre looking into it and that they focused on lower end hardware but its still not a good excuse imo
What is "VIP Rank 1" ?
if im in the lobby alone and i queue a map and turn off crew fill, will it put me solo against other solo's or solo against trio's?
I get this with desktop 3060
i believe it's when you hit rank 30 with a faction you get vip 1 but then your rank goes back down to zero with them, kinda like a bit of a prestige system
huh... okay. Do you keep your upgrades though?
Yeah
it's just for like rank up reward purposes i think
Use geforce and razer cortex especially
Will optimize it a Little but laptop is just not it tbh
About the new item stack fix: can someone tell me how to see what items would get deleted? or is it only effecting stacks on the character and not in the vault ?
Stacks in vault, nothing gets deleted?
Things only get deleted on your character post run, being depleted health kits and auto sold trinkets
razer cortex is...idk...I wouldn't recommend it to anyone
Why ? I was gaining around 10 fps with it when I was on a laptop. Youre saying its not that good but dont say anything about What makes it bad lmao
Game is CPU bound
it's general razer bloatware, you can pretty much achieve the same by simply optimizing your windows settings properly and you'll have both a better understanding and control of the system, if you find razer cortex works for you and is comfortable, feel free to use it, but I honestly am not installing any more of razer's adfilled excuse of a software on my computer
So in theory actions increasing CPU performance/limiting CPU usage should help. Lowering the graphics presets unfortunately does not translate to significant performance increase for many people (myself included)
These apps being horrendous bloatware is why people are switching to keyboards/mice with online configurators
Having that Razer app on might actually be detrimental as it uses CPU resources. Razer's software is not top notch to say the least, I used to have problems with Synapse hogging CPU resources quite a while ago, luckily it got better with updates
What do you do with the app that makes you keep it installed?
I have a Razer's headset (it's still alive and kicking after 5 years so I feel no need to replace it) and I keep Synapse for EQ/settings/THX Audio
I did too I went straight steel series with GG
On the other hand, I bought Steel's Arctis Nova 1 for work use and a headphone snapped off after like 10 months. In my experience it's kinda hit or miss with any peripherals in general, quality boils down not only to the brand but also to particular models or even production batches
Laptop I got when I first started uni fried itself so bad it cracked the PCB for the keyboard within a year
Does anyone else have the thing where sometimes your mouse will feel slidey and disconnected from your input?
Man I wish I didn't have a hard on for Razer mice. At this point the only thing I have from Razer that isn't solely just RGB (I have a RGB mouse pad from them) is my wireless mouse.
I have a SteelSeries headset and am probably gonna grab an Alias Pro sometime this year, so I'll be able to get rid of HyperX's software, at least
So I just brought a deluxe key template into a run, exfiled, and didn't get a key out of it? Is this intention or a bug or? @meager cloak
did you get downed?
^ They're fragile, meaning they disappear when downed.
Duos is the best thing ever!
My friends and I pulled a Cryoarchive-related key from a boss two days ago. Is it used in a similar manner like keys to closed rooms on maps?
Agreed
Brutal... Found a blue key in Perimeter, exfiled, went to Dire Marsh, snuck halfway across the map, got into the locked room. Loaded up on nice blue and purple mods, a Zeus and a Copperhead. Exfil was like 50ft away, used my drone to scout, no one around. Got to the exfil, 5 seconds to go I get sniped. No worries I think, my body's still twitching. Then they oneshot my body. Didn't know that was possible 😅
Guess I shouldn't have dumped my smoke grenades 🫠
we dunno yet!
I will surely perish without this information
they might have tracked you until you extracted, very unlucky
I wasn't downed
Ya I think that's the case - ten minutes earlier I had a narrow escape, but thought I'd lost them
I don't think that should happen, experienced this once myself. Just straight up killed
How is it that if I bring in my good shit i die but if I don’t I get good shit
Key rooms are very very noticeable. People will camp the rooms and nearby exfils if they hear it open.
Ngl it needs a change. It is way too easy to camp or push a key room even from a distance because of the audio range, and I say this as someone who has pulled up on a team looting a key room but has never had the same done to me.
Outlands one tap downed people to the head I think
not really cpu bound either
Yeah but sending someone straight to the lobby without even a chance to be downed is not intended behaviour
yeah, sniper vs downed is oneshot thirst
just graduated college, once I get a job will switch to desktop
I mean you can kill someone standing full in 5s with body shots from a longshot
He's saying they one tapped him from DBNO, two shots total
Exact same, I do so much better with free kits
Dang not getting hired while still in school is a wild thought to me. I'll pray for you 🙏
Oh I just woke up and misread that lmao
Yep this is correct
What’s dbno
Down but not out
Could be gear fear/gear confidence.
Either playing more passively or more aggressively because you're geared, and making the wrong play as a result
This game is HEAVILY CPU bound. Your graphics card is okay, not great but ok, and your cpu is likely your bottleneck. Turn on nvidia stats and see what your frame time is for cpu vs gpu
people always camp the potential exfils around AI Uplink and bio-research
Yeah I didn't know the door was going to play a damn symphony 😆
Yeah, that's why I steer clear of them unless it's <5 min left
well now you do ^^
Good to know. It was near the Greenhouse, so close by Bio research
I've had the same thing happen to me, I got vaporised by a team with shielded lmgs after looting one of those 😄
Greenhouse extract is a nightmare
greenhouse has a DCON that people also camp
Has buildings but otherwise it’s nasty as fuck
Yeah, the audio range for that jingle is way, way too large. Me and my homie were outside Station in Perimeter Duos last night and heard the sound of FUCKING TUNNEL MAINTENANCE OFFICE clear as day, and immediately ran over and killed the dudes and looted everything. Way WAY too loud.
tbh you should only be able to hear it if you're in that poi
not 300 miles away 😆
or maybe a little bit outside of it cus it feels a bit egregious to annouce to the whole map that you're looting something valuable just to have the whole server fall on you
Extracted for a traxus quest there last night (I think Hostilities [5/5]?) and there was a dude at the DCON, a thief tried to FPV drone me, and a sniper trying to hit me and the dude at the DCON. Thank god for Destroyer shield otherwise I would've died
I guess they want it to be a fight for the loot. Think I'll open it and run in future, then come back at the end to grab what's left
sup dawgs what time EST do Cryo and Ranked start today? if they start today?
nahh cus then all you'll be getting is crumbs 😆
just grab as much as you can carry and ruuuunnnnn
Yeah, hearing the jingle when you're outside of one POI meanwhile the key room is inside and underground in a separate but nearby POI is fucking stupid
1pm EST should be, might be 12 because of Daylight Savings I forget
Exactly, smash and grab
Sure but I'm towards the left of the skill bell curve 😬 Probably not making it out of a melee
I opened another one the other day, and two teams dropped on me. 6v3 slaughterfest
Either that or kill everyone nearby ahead of time. Lost a number of keys before opening the rooms, but when we did loot the rooms we were safe to do so
I mean me too, this is the first extraction shooter I've ever played but I still try and get some goodies
Fair enough, not much to do there when they're both after you specifically
I didn't even get mad I just laughed in disbelief and jumped into another run
You are a better man than I, I would've called them something unsavory in my head and queued again
I think it was due to overwhelming odds, I couldn't really do much so I just took the L and acted like nothing happened. Yes I may have had loot on me, but it wasn't really mine till I exfil'd
healthy way of playing
hOW MUCH IS THE M77 enhanced weapon from traxus?
As soon as I start getting annoyed I just tap the "it wasn't even yours yet" sign in my head and carry on :P
Fair. I would've still felt like I had a chance to win so probably why I would've been more upset. Me and my homie have won some 3v6's on Outpost so long as our third is competent.
Outpost may be hard but it’s so fun to explore
TRUTHNUKE
Unlike Shit Marsh
dire marsh feels worse because that map has the most players/squads
I could go on and on and die a lot and I would still have fun
I need to do a few rook runs and get loot there, get used to the map then I farm for real
I'm half competent on a good day, maybe if I was more experienced it would've gone better 😆
Need that pinwheel loot
And there is a shit ton of quests to do in dire
That MIDA quest is breaking me
I had to cross the map back and forward without dying
Just to die anyway to ai, oh and the timer only 3 min left, this shit takes way too much time
raiding pinwheel is extremely fun
I fucking HATE Dire Quests
Also I cannot play this game without headphones, hearing player footsteps to deduce position is KEY for survival
like all my quests rn are on dire, waiting for friends to do them
Pretty much all I did yesterday was just run Dire to finish quests. Now I've just got the last few SekGen quests and the final chunk of NuCal quests
But I'll have to wait until the workweek is done for those.
I still need to do the sekgen introduction, I keep putting it off for some reason
Anyone else just get constantly railed in this game or am I just unc
I won't say how many runs it took me to do the intro Traxus quest
that's just how the game is 😆
These things happen I'm afraid :/
It is brutal. I think back to check what I could have done differently each time I die - thereby slowly learning 😅
please let’s just keep the kills to death ratio hidden
losing good gear is never a huge set back in this game--no reason to fret over a big loss, just grab a fresh kit and go again
nah it’s not that bad really I have some really good runs, trios/duos is defo what the game was made for, solos is an entirely different game
Ya but I'd like to just fire my fancy railgun once to see what it's like
real--i lost my first rail gun at first contact too
I'm sitting on the h ar rn, gonna run it with friends on the weekend
Definitely, but many groups I match with just set a ping and sprint across the map and get murdered. Finding solos more enjoyable for now
I think I fell in love with this game because none was mine to begin with, a lot of people quit because it’s not like cod where there is no consequence for failure, and I was looking for a hard as balls fps where consequences were dire for a damn long time
I never would believe I would like extraction shooters
whos ready for cryo archive!!
I just want Bungie to improve performance now cuz I’m forced to use frame gen
im hopeful they will as well, but im not sure how possible itll be since the whole engine is cpu based but we shall see
whats the entry to the new map. just 5k? no rank or quest requirements?
I dont like how they all end up in quarantine like bro Im tired of this place after 30 quests sending me here
I accidentally skipped the first two weeks, what did I miss
5k + lvl 25
All factions unlocked and level 25
Level 25, 5k loadout value, and all 6 factions unlocked.
If I miss a weekend can I still max ranked?
in a single weekend, if you play enough, sure
Ranked should be forever :/
Truthnuke
Lies. Who doesn't like going from bio to quarantine for 15 times straight
Who doesn't love walking all the way over to it and then realizing the dropoff point for their previous quest step dropped a quest item they had to bring with them...
Did that one a few times for SekGen quests
Prestige key rooms
Hmm, do I suffer in cryo and ranked by myself or do the rational thing and lfg...
prolly be rational to lfg but hey what do i know right
Hows ranked
Been stuck on a NuCal contract for most of the week bc I can’t finish it. The one where you take sample from Bio to Quarantine and exfil in a single run. I got as far as Quarantine and got my shot pushed in by purple shield UESC. When I try solo I just get to Bio and die one way or another. It’s so demoralizing!
tis not even out yet
Ok
tomorrow it comes out :D
Are all the weapon schemas you unlock in the reward pass or otherwise supposed to always be available for purchase in the Armory, at the right hand side? Or do they cycle periodically? I am missing some that are unlocked and used to be there for purchase, so just curious if anyone else has this too. (Impact H-AR and Magnum MC for sure were there and gone now, but others remain).
Does anyone know if the blue stack overflow chip on the wstr makes it so it can have more than 3 shots?
schemas can only be used a certain number of times? idk if there's a limit
Yup
That's what I'm trying to figure out. Some of them remain there and some are gone. The two gone I have definitely purchased at least a few times but have also purchased the V75 Scar many times and it remains.
3-4 times then they disappear
They should make it so if you are playing marathon for longer than 1 hour, then it will crash the game.
I'll probably play first week or two with fill or solo if possible, until I have a better grasp on how stuff works
That quest was definitely annoying to do indeed ! Just stay on the outskirts on the right of the map to reach quarantine, they do the fight by knife mostly. Thats What worked for me at the beginning of the game
Weekend only is ass let's talk abt it in feedback channel
thanks, i couldn't find that documented anywhere and bungie official help asked me to send them a video showing them lol
Feedback channel is flooded with it. Wouldn't hurt posting more though, and interact with already existing ones
If you look at the schema it will tell you the uses it has, just to let you know that too ^^
damn, thanks sir
No problem
You joined yesterday to hate consider shutting your mouth ♥️
So the stock in market for your schema stock is basically once it's out, it's out forever?
Yes unless you find another schema
until you get it again, and schemas can stack so i have liked 10 self res i can buy cuz i got a shit ton of self res schemas
Got it, thanks all
after release why is everything "closing"
does finding more of the same schema make them stack?
Yes
The amount of times you can use a schema depends on the type of schema itself, it's 3 for weapons and 5 for everything else. They stack if you exfil multiple shemas for the same thing with seemingly no limit
lovely
Tbh, pretty easy to exfil in solo with loot. Run Assassin class, and sneak around.
tbh to best way to exfil is arguably learning final exfil location and how to rush it in final second
or run rook and scavange around
I just end up getting randomly killed by some edgy, assassin or some UESC or something. Never fails.
Never even tried this, probably should.
Every single time I enter fill kitted up, there is at least 1 free kit player charging in resulting in 2 lost kits, EVERY TIME
tis the life of an extraction shooter, youll get used to it
Also some schemas are less valuable if you know where to get them. For example wrath warden always drops a brrt smg, farming him is more reliable than trying to find schemas
Oh wow the more you know
No I played them a,l and this shit is something else, especially in a game that dictatos you play tiro like no other extaction does
i mean you dont have the play trio, solo queue against other solos is an option and i would recommend it if u dont wanna lose loot for all three maps other than cyro, since cryo has a gear ante of 5k
Also another funny thing, buying multiple V11's is cheaper than buying ammo for it, granted it's way less inventory space friendly but it is nice for ultra budget runs lol
ngl, the only run I did today was a rook run where I scaveneged a ton of weapons on outpost and since the guarded exfils were taken I rushed top of dormitories and waited, final 2s I jumped in over a team while another rook was also rushing in, 5 people came out of that because we all jumped in at the end and didn't have time murderhobo each other, sadly my spectate was showing another rook as his shell was getting blasted
tis the life of a rook on outpost, its brutal out there but effecient
I was annoyed by that too, then I discovered soloqs. In server slam, when you queued Solo, you were against Trios still. But it seems that for Live release they changed that and I did not know, so I kept tryharding with trios. Today I learned that soloq, matches you with other solos and thats a W for me until ranked. 🙂
no? server slam was solos too
I dont see the reason to kit up for soloq even, its just insta kill or insta death, I prefer actually fighting with the kits
half the expensive kits are just about synergies even, soloq was clearly an afterthought, rook is cool tho
Free kit >>>>
I use full gear in soloqs though. I did use them in trios, but as you said, hated when I was mostly matched with freekits and thus lost my loadout. Everyon in discord here thinks that the majority of freekits are pros, who know what they are doing 🙂
rook goes in vs trios, any other shell goes in solos with no rooks in
probs need more in-game time to realize the actual state, or perhaps they play mostly with premades. Its the opposite, majority are indeed newbs, but there is a fractino of freekiters who know their shiet 🙂
Free kit supremacy. Why am I wasting blue shields on kids with full green set ups shooting every bot in sight and then getting 3rd partied
Been there too many times
Basically, don't judge skill by the tools used. Which is pretty universal
the advantage of rooks is definetly the suprise factor. Geared teams think they killed all players, Pinwheel is theirs, run low on ammo and start dropping recovery kits for that juicy loot ... everyone singles-out, to grab as much loot as possible ....... and BAM, there is a rook in your face 😄
but you are willing to waste others purple shield when you go freekit 😄
Bro can not read 💀
I use free kit or rook just for pushing contracts/rep, the exfil is just extra creds
but then again, I have not touched duos or crew fill or trios
there are some pretty cheap kits you can run too if u wanna just run a non freebie
I have not tried solo yet
its both amazing and terrible, amazing in the fact that all loot is yours, terrible in the fact that there tends to be a lot of rats
Am i the only one who has failed getting streched 4:3 aspect ratio? Just keep getting black bars...
if I want to go in for something specific where I need to hold ground, I'll go blue shield with purple v66 and a rook kit v11, consumables, etc. ~4k kit that imho can pretty much clean anything if played right
The biggest expense in cheap kits are often meds, although that is a non issue if you just stockpile some barter materials
exactly, you can run just a v11 for 50 creds and take out some purple sheilds quickly if you get the drop and hit shots
v11 is just crazy and i love it so much
Can someone online check if it's cheaper to buy a green overrun from cyac or buy a grey overrun and buy the same attachments from Traxus?
give me a min to boot up the game
5 v11's, one stack of meds 🗿
I wish MIDA had a larger stock of grenades, 3 per day is so ass
green overrun is 1.4k grey overrun + attachment is abt 1k
they dont have the mag it seems for traxus tho so ur missing that but another mag puts you almost at 1.4k
prolly more like 1.2k if you were ot buy everything
They're same size I believe, just different side stats. And the chip is whatever
so its prolly abt 200 creds cheaperto buy grey and mod it
ttk in this game is a joke man
I'm not broke enough to optimize it but it's good to keep in mind. I guess it's more about optimising daily stock
but tbh i wouldnt even mess with overrun AR, id just bite the bullet and buy a grey m77 which will preform much better for a much higher price
Twitter is cooking crimson desert alive
it is rlly that bad?
Denuvo + mid story + straight up doesn't run on Intel gpus
denuvo?
Denuvo drm
im stupid, so i dont know what that is
It’s a 7/10 game being way too glorified from what I read, story is non existent, game is a Big Mac of stuff to do or all you can eat buffet with no sense of direction or no idea of what they wanted this game to be
Digital rights management software. It's effective but it tanks performance. Just anti piracy shit. It also costs the developer 20k a month
I think this game was going to be a MMO before being turned to a single player
It was originally planned as a BDO expansion yes
yeah that makes sense, i feel like i heard it just pop up out of nowhere tbh
Ngl waste of investiments
To be honest, we don't have a shortage of games with shit story and good gameplay. You can't pretend that Nioh 3 doesn't suck in story department but the gameplay is good
so overrun is 100, reticle mag and chip 345 and grip is 300, totals at 1,435
Game looks fun tho but since day one I noticed zero direction with it, I saw the sky islands and I immediately knew this game was chasing a fad
Or dare I say, Fallout 4. Good game, really fucking bad writing
I mean day one when the first trailer dropped
god dont remind me of how they butchered my glorius cities reputation
i rlly want to love fo4, it has a great environment and like good side quests but damn i dont give a shit if another settlement needs my help stfu preston
Nickel and dimeing it, but expected
the chip is also the mini jammer
eventually ill steal this damn self res of a downed player with thief
My problem with fo4 is that it's not a good rpg. If it was advertised as anything else but an rpg it would be fine...er. Story just doesn't stick, sidequests are almost completely unrelated to main quest or character growth. Dialogue options are an illusion, this is my biggest gripe with it. There's literally no reason to pick anything but sarcasm option every time because it makes zero difference lmao
than ill have the mastery skin, but this is taking forever...
youre just so right, it rlly is just a step down with every bethesda game i mean look at starfield its basically fo4 but in space and fo76 is... well... its 76
I heard 76 is in a much better place now compared to launch but yeah, it's just not it
It also betrays the original fallout turn based games, it was built on making choices
thats true, but that doesnt mean its good. its rampant with greedy microtransactions + you basically need fo1st to even play the damn game atp
But maybe I'm just old and nostalgic for the roots of it lmao
i grew up with fo4, so im biased but theres a reason i have 500 hours in fnv and only 124 in fo4
NV was absolute peak. Love it to bits
i think that bethesda, especially after the show, is rlly just shooting themselves in the foot. i mean they retconned basically all of fnv and even some of their own lore
i get people love the show, i rlly liked watching it, but from a fan perspective, especially as someone who loves the lore of the games i cant stand behind some of these lore choices
anyone know if durendals snippet is real?
NV was obsidian hence why they kinda did that
yes, that item exits
is it in dcon by station?
what?
durendals snippet? im confused
someone told me to check dcon building by station and check folios
It's an ultra rare red item that creates a random key when you exfil with it
They're trolling you bruh. Technically you can find it anywhere but good fucking luck
thanks for the info ima keep grinding for it
Just because they found it there doesn't mean you will as well
i got you
random fill in dire, 2 goes down, im mighty triage, revive 1 with ult, while i manualy reviving other, that 1 i revived started blasting guys who just killed them, yea man i mean, no common sense?
Hide and heal ❌
Get up and start blasting on 1 hp 👍
real
Time to get good at raiding the pinwheel
I do NOT have the loadout to go into Cryo
Does vandal count towards the exploding the crates thing or do i need actual grenades?
Is the general thought that shotguns need to either be way more rare or nerfed? Or do people like them?
does anyone know how to blast open containers in complex for the mission
Do we actually know for certain it exists? As far as I can tell only one or two people are claiming to have ever gotten it and the photo evidence I've seen of it could easily be faked
Has it been found in the game files or something?
how long till the map is out
That would be datamining so no, but for the other point I've seen enough screenshots to believe that it is
<t:1774026000:R>
No I know that, I'm not advocating for it, I'm just asking whether we have significant evidence in any form for it now
Since as of fairly recently I believe the only evidence was 2 screenshots, one of it in a vault and the other of the inspect screen
There's a video of someone having it in their vault
so it's probably real
Hmm
Looks real enough to me
lowkey cryo archive looks like my favorite destiny 2 raid
1 use DCON to put loot in mid run when
Is that the only video we have of it?
That's the only video I have of it, but it looks real to me
Deep Stone Cryo Archive 😭
It's probably incredibly rare
real
I mean that's still something that's fairly easy to fake which is frustrating
Can't wait to fight taniks for the 20th time
But it's one more piece of evidence in favour of it I guess which is something
Hopefully some more people will find it throughout the season
It's gonna be one of those things that are so mythically rare so I expect less than 1 in 10k people to even lay their eyes on it, unless Cryo loot is that insane
@fading zinc sent you a DM
That feels like an odd type of item to have in a loot centric game where you can lose things in a matter of a few seconds
I mean, the effect is kinda crazy. Extremely high risk but also very high reward
Getting key templates isn't exactly a cakewalk
It's reusable too
Like it doesn't turn into a key template on exfil, it generates one
Bought two more PC's and Marathon so I can technically go in solo in Cryo 
I meant from a game design decision it feels odd to have ultra rare pieces of loot if the vast majority of even dedicated players will never find it
But maybe the gold/red cryo keys will drop it
I mean, a vast majority of players will never get to Vault 7
Or maybe we just don't understand its source very well yet given the dcon story
GIGACHAD multiboxer
That could also be true
Very few cases of people finding it so not enough data to go on
Play two destroyers with 5k in grenades each
chuck norris will never see cryo archive
The guy who had it is in this server. I was here when he was talking about it. It's real.
Chuck was the final step to unthawing it 😞
Rip chuck
have they still no fixed the instant die bug?
Any tips for begginers (looting)
Should i go solo or squad
i was just running and died to nothing just cam eup with downed no explanation as to what killed me
if u run solo play assasin and just spam invis and collect loot slowly
if u run squads try to help ur teammates do quests aswell as ur own as youll both get xp for helping eachother
Oh thats very nice
and in doing so get ur rank up rewards faster
Thanks brotha, i keep dying on every single one its hard game(i suck at pvp)
And everyone has green shield so its harder to kill
yeh if youre not so good with pvp you should run assasin to get some practise
you can mostly avoid fights
Ill try him, ive been on destroyer but i dont like him very much
Is Rook squad only shell?
if you can get the drop on someone with assasin a green shield will not make any difference you will win
cryo only weekend?
Ill try to do that, i saw someone posting about smoke grenade and those autotrack guns as a combo
realistically you're going to have to get used to the gun play for pvp its essential in this, the assasin is just the easiest to use because the invis is super op
assasin lets you get some free kills with basically no effort particularly in solo when you only have to deal with the one player u get the drop on
destroyer is very good but not as much straight out of the box, alot of what makes him good is in his build crafting and faction upgrades. Assasin is just easy to use straight away without any upgrades
The higher your rank rewards go the better your gear is too. I'm getting blue shields and backpacks from most rank up packages now 🙂
I actually really like the balance Bungie struck with gear risk and progression being separated. I can be thoroughly mid (and I am), die losing the best gear I had, and still grow most of the time if I appropriately prioritised my objectives.
can rook interact with the artifact stabilizer, which is that red machine?
yes
Cryogenic archive
he can take the artifact
idk, I was not able to use the stabilizer in bio
Yes, i did it last night
i was able to in algae ponds
yeah, I think the greenhouse one also works, but the bio-research one didn't seem to work on rook
you had the artifact on you?
yep
Is it just me or is duos fucking miserable?
It's got all of the bad things about solos and trios and none of the good things about solos or trios.
I liked duos alot actually
they need to add fill for duos
I had it on me, but strangely it was not doing the anomalous debuff thing that is normally does
Maybe all coordinated teams of 2 is why it felt like ass?
i think thats just a bug, that happened to me the other day at complex
All I saw in it was an intense uptick in ratting, camping bodies, and even got jumped on the very edge of the map, staying almost out of bounds to avoid people.
it’s boring because not enough pvp, i played it to have more groups in the raid and pvp but everyone was just running away
i went from station to north relay to overflow and i only ran into one group which ran away when i shot them
Felt pretty fast in my games, we were also just doing contracts though.
I gotta farm some unstable biomass so I don't go broke buying meds for cryo
grab a bucket and go in overflow
Also all my POI materials are scrambled for some reason? They're not neatly organized and often show wrong materials... Is it just me
often times my tracking just disappears altogether
Ok I was just on Perimeter and it was showing wrong materials per poi entirely, now I'm on DM and it shows correct ones but still scrambled. I'll send a screenshot to #📽️run-clips
REAL
yeah, that looks like a bug, does it fix itself if you reboot the game?
Don't forget Diodes too
Haven't tried, I'll check after this run
I got 2 stacks of 30 on meds just to be ready
I have plenty of blue meds but I never know how much shit I'm gonna eat lol
Hope people are having fun in there when the cryo pops. I will not be there probably ever i'm too casual lol 😄
I just intend to take the heals of the fools who get in my way of the gold loot
I think were really close to beating the null puzzle!
They haven't for other maps at launch
based on the map size i think itll be 3-4
We already solved it 😭
internet explorer type beat
i imagine itll be pvp for the first 10 mins to cull the teams down to 1 then the rest will be mechanics and boss fighting
why is it still active then?
Fun 🤷♂️
I mean other puzzles are active too if you haven't solved them personally
Wdym? There are mobile health cabinets all over. You just need to shoot them first! 
4 teams is crazy
That's not even that many
Type S'pht
if you look at the map layout on the map select it looks small but vertical
i doubt itll be more than 4
Yeah restart fixed it 😭
Shoutout to the one person that died outside of hauller and left me 8 reclaimed biostripping, 3 sterialized biostripping and 33 unstable biomas, I needed those asap
Noise
they gotta make purchasing and selling items faster
DAMN
Does anyone know how often Exfils come online? Is it random timings??
No
its in increments
Like every ten minutes? Or does it change each raid?
idk it seems like the first one comes on in like 6-7 minutes to raid
might be different now and on different maps but in the server slam i remember it being roughly every 2-5 minutes on perimeter
Doesn't seem to be a concrete answer yet, but I was thinking the same, thanks!
are devs planning on adding an easier way to navigate weapon attachments?
first exfils always spawn 5 minutes in
i hit exfils and then run away, i dont even use them i just activate them
i think they do get more frequent the later into a match though
Why is Cryo only open for the weekend?
First exfils open up 5 minutes into the raid, then at specific times, depending on the map
#dev-updates but also 🤷♂️
for now yes
idk
I gotta grind like 2 more levels before I can even get in 😭
what level do you gotta be
25 iirc
alr ty
Is there a way to check if you are voice chat banned?
I'm a bit confused on seasonal resets. Do vendor upgrades reset too? Thought I read somewhere that they don't
i love that i have an hour and a half to get from level 16 to 25 and matchmaking is taking 5 minutes before i load in and get buttfucked off spawn
prolly will depends on which
As far as I understand, yes vendor upgrades reset and probably change in some way with the next season
dont forget the gear ante too i recommend running like a wstr cuz those things are alr 2k and it seems cryo maybe very cqc heavy
cant get into the game rn
They do
What doesn’t reset are the codex, unlocked cosmetics, liaison contact completions (aka faction intro contracts)
Why is the game not launching
You tell us, you're giving us like 0 info apart from "game won't launch". Try verifying your file integrity or reinstalling idk
just launched fine for me 🤷♂️
Its stuck on loading, thats it, gets to the click anywhere screen then is stuck on the butterfly caterpillar decal loading shit
sounds like bad internet connection maybe?
Not sure its very odd.
why is there no way to customize stickers for all guns or at least all of a type (ex. all pistols, all assault rifles)
i really have to go put this stupid ass lion face on every gun
because sticker amounts are limited, you can't put it on every gun
Stickers are limited in quantity not like you even can put them on all your guns
I'd run a speed test and if it's not showing obvious problems then I'd try repairing game files on whatever platform you're on
https://www.speedtest.net/
what do you mean they're limited
What
that has to be the dumbest thing i've ever heard in my life
you don't unlock sticker to be used unlimited you unlock X amount of stickers for all guns combined
weird, 162 download 40 upload.
That's how it is tho, same with charms
So like, I can have 4 stickers and I can put it on 4 guns and that's it?
that's literally the dumbest shit i've ever heard lmfao
You can freely remove them or transfer them between guns
if you only have 4 of that amount of specific sticker, yes
That's insane 😭
I knew how many stickers you could put on the same gun was limited and that is sane
Bro doesn't know about consumable shaders
tbf, are you guys really using every single gun? I only use charms and stickers on guns I actually use
I didn't play enough D2
I'll only even bother to customize guns I actually use but this is just one of the silliest forms of artificially scarce cosmetics I've ever heard of
Be glad it's not like CS stickers where applying them is permanent with no way of getting them back
i will just simply never customize guns
I've really just not been exposed to the weird shit some games do, I guess.
yea, definitely not wrong but feel like it's also not a major issue. there's also many types of stickers/ charms and personally I wouldn't use the same ones on all weapons
When you use the quick melee, does that do the same amount of damage as having your knife out?
it's not a major issue but it's very silly and bungie already walked back a change like that in d2 so it's baffling to see again here for something way tinier
Maybe, but I doubt it tbh
To be fair d2 shaders were mostly earned and not monetised, unlike marathon
sure but single use shaders were still hot garbage
True, mementos are basically that now lmao
Edit: this information is wrong
||If your melee damage stat is 10, heavy knife does 20 damage (2x), light knife does 10 damage (1x), and gun melee does 5 damage (0.5x)
Just an example number to show the scaling.||
we dont even have those anymore last i checked, move onto weapon tied cosmetics lol
heavy does not do double damage
So if you have 100 melee damage, you can just 1-shot people with the heavy?
would a blue sponsored kit you can buy for 10k be of 5k loadout value
I would think it'd be really hard to get 100 melee
no, here's a sheet of tested melee damage https://x.com/mossy_max/status/2032481639650013409
I was just about to pull this up
thanks
Ah. Got any other numbers?
check the tweet
i can have 120 melee, its not rlly hard to get up to it
Thank you
I want to customize my own runner🥲
I was really confused when I saw these numbers, cause I know for a fact I was onetapping purples. I do wonder if going over 100 with temporary buffs such as Myrmydon or Prowling Tiger work for overflowing melee damage stat
waiting aprox 1 more hour for it to release :D
I’ve just got home from work not too long ago. Is Cryo Archive out yet?
im over here on the east coast thinking 'oh its been out a couple hours i should ask how it is' lol
in approx 1 hour :D
So, 2PM EST?
<t:1774026000:R>
there has to be more variables. I three hit a green shield last night, and still lost
Looking for someone to play cryo with preferably someone who doesnt run off by themselves and has a mic
what did you hit them with
assassin. knife damage. with melee boosts on implants
yo i just disconnected bigg time
1PM EST, but yeah soon
i cant re join
lights? it's very possible for you just have dealt 42 per light and not killed
You can also use the thrusters on the first shell and that adds knife dmg
My bad. Yeah, 1PM EST. Thanks.
Quick question, I'm on ps5 and for some reason I can't hear my teammates? I know they're talking cause I can see their symbol pop up. I've tried changing settings on my playstation and in game but I haven't been able to figure it out
is there like a way to fix this
i had a +25 to melee with cores. I was very surprised that they didnt die
I don't understand I've been playing for a little, why does my mouse feel delayed when I move it, it feels like it moves late or is sluggish
35 melee does not kill a green shield with 3 lights
on top of my base. i have arachne first amount done.
chuck norris died
servers went down rn? or?
Stabs 1-5: Clearly missed.
Stabs 6-9: Missed due to whiffing.
Stabs 10-11: Very close, but whiffs and desync make these reasonable misses.
Stab 12: Likely didn't actually swing because you were already dead.
yeah, having problems here too. can't get into matches.
im afraid it's this
first hit heavy. second two were lights, and was mid 4th when i went down
then there was some other factor if you landed a 2L1H at 55 melee
If you're going to start with a heavy you might as well commit to it and down anyone in 2 hits
where's the best place to get some good amount of unstable gel?
Heavy light light is the best combo tbh
we have combo testing now
Spamming light is 🔥
https://x.com/mossy_max/status/2034774506829492450 just spam light if you can't one-tap
Just what I always go for, if you go for a second heavy you will probably get killed during windup
no 1pm est
i run rook and go dire marsh straight to bio research, been farming there since the server slam
Light 1, make your presence known. Light 2, inflict panic with a fast unexpected attack. Light 3, finish the job.
alright, thanks a lot!
Insane doc so a 100 melee stat heavy can onetap a white shield
Also does melee damage still increase past 100 melee stat?
if you go to the upgrade, you can track it and it'll highlight on the map where it is. You can also see a list to know what map to load into by hovering over the item in the upgrades screen
No? 100 melee is 129.58 heavy and white shield is 140
Isn't it 120 base health of 100 + 20 per shield bar?
That sheet calls it 120 base HP
Probably because you can never not have at least 1 bar of shield
We have already established that health is 120, no shields
It's saying 120 base HP + 20 white shield
hi guys. just recently got the deluxe version of this game today. ill go through the tutorial for sure but just wondering if anyone else that just got the gamen would like to group up?
Thank god I got 75 base #destroyermains
Ah I didnt read that part lmao how did we find it to be 120 base health
beat someone with a purple shield br33 and bully with a fucking punch oh my god dude this thing is too strong i should not have won that fight
Stryder, maybe?
Have we confirmed there's benefits for going over 100? I'm pretty sure I onetapped a dude in the tunnels under processing with a heavy attack
Scared the shit out of him, too
AFAIK no confirmation on anything like that
I see
Guys I see the livestream, is the Cryo already live? Cant get to PC yet
Have folks tested out TTK with knife when you make sure to stand spaced back enough so that you don't lock into the lunge animation? The hitbox is still massive, i wonder if lights get even better when you just hit folks with the tipper
My gameplay is so mid I'm basically a thanatonaut.
chat this is a sad day, im out of blue shields and must start using purples :c
My steak is too juicy
I onetapped a guy via prox chat by calling him a chud, he threw a nade at his feet when he realized what had occured
my lobster to buttery
What channel with the offical marathon stream be on for Cryo release?
Counting down the minutes to cryo bruh
I imagine Bungie straight up has their own, MarathonTheGame maybe?
They do, just wasnt sure if it would be somewhere else
I know whatever skarrow is doing is technically "official" too
theyre doing a preshow thing rn looks like
Does it officially start in 45 min?
yeah this stream has roflwaffles and skarrow on the official channel
Appreciate you! Thank you brother
Oh it has drops for Cryo cosmetics too, pog
juicy almost full purple Punch skin? im IN
I'm slightly confused about the NDA channels saying "Don't stream this if you know things, no spoilers" but then putting 2 very very involved testers in charge of the official stream lol
Well, its the official launch today
they're not playing though
and they're very well trained
Hello poeple, I have a question. Do we know how many crews are there in a Perimeter Duo mode?
They don't want people leaking info from tests, but of course they reserve the right to pull a couple big names in to show off the official reveal
Ah, I thought they would be actually
they're going to be watching various streamers and casting
This makes far more sense then
What time is Cryo opening?
and i don't know if milo ever played the tests in which cryo were active
Knowing bungie i imagine it will be like their RTF streams, where they hop into different streams and cast from their channels
You guys wanna skin runners tn?
42 minutes i think
<t:1774026000:t>
my loadout is curated and valued at 7.5k, i have been awaiting this moment. once i load in i cant wait to lose it all :D
Load in -> die instantly

i heard everyone gets one free cryo kit to test out the map for the first time
thank you
so you wont have to waste 5k on your first run
I think I can make a pretty comfortable 5k loadout with v11 and wstr
lowk excited for that, like this is what i live for
That's fine, I'll waste that too. lmao
Heard where
i think bungie net article?
I haven't read that yet
lowkey forgot but i think it was from bungie or a roflwaffles stream
I would bet a dollar that cryo has each team starting in their own bespoke puzzle/pve section and that you wont actually cross paths with others until a bit further in. Otherwise it'd just become rat city to steal eachothers keys ASAP
I'd also bet that they add a special credit PAID sponsor kit that loads you with 5k of gear for the run
I wouldn't mind that. It's gonna be pve heavy too considering there's a codex achievement for killing 100 clankers in one run
i wonder how many teams there'll be
That would be pretty smart, like a 7.5k/10k Cryo Starter Kit that has 5x availability a day?
Exactly my thinking.
we know at least 4 teams cuz u need 7 kills for the emblem
Considering we only have 2.5, 4 and 10k loadouts some middle ground would be nice
we did get that map of cryo, if my assumption that everyone starts in their own zone on the fringes of the map you could probably intuit the team size pretty quick. seems kinda symmetrical
There's a 10k loadout you can buy already? I've only run as high as Encrypted's for my sponsor kits
Did they say the vault locations change? Or was that something else? Kinda missed what they said in the live stream.
Yeah they're faction milestone upgrade unlocks, limited to 1 per day though
Ahhhh very interesting, what loadout value do you get approximately when you buy one? Seems like usually kits are like 50% loadout value to cost, at least for encrypteds and deluxes?
correct.
"To queue for Cryo Archive, you'll need:
Minimum Runner Level: 25
All six factions unlocked (liaison contracts completed)
Minimum Loadout Value: 5,000 credits
This is the value of your equipped gear, not an additional cost
If you meet these requirements, you'll also be eligible for a one-time Cryo Archive Sponsored Kit from the Armory. This is a bundle of blue-tier gear specifically tuned to get you through an early Cryo Archive run without having to risk your favorite items on attempt number one."
Link: https://www.bungie.net/7/en/News/Article/cryo_archive_overview
thank you based bingo, thats very kind
It comes with a blue weapon and shield, a green backpack, and some implants/cores/util
Decent value given how easy credits are to come by
i just read the article and it looks like 6 wings and a hub to transition
Adds up to me, maybe we could expect 6 teams in the run then, 1 for each key possibly so that way you can almost always garuntee going in that you're likely to get one vault of loot with some effort, but can also scrap to try and get more?
Sounds like bringing in a full house of cryo keys is a bad idea, bring one or two if you're feeling ballsy and focus on your goal unless you're a freakbeast squad lol
i only have the one cryo key :c
I haven't even gotten one yet, lacking on my outpost grind :P mostly just been doing my factions and enjoying PVP on DM
The first couple days those rooms are getting ratted constantly 💀
[TRX-SYS:CORTEX]
INIT::POWER_ON SEQUENCE
CORE_CHECK::MEMORY OK / SYSTEM INTEGRITY VERIFIED
LINK::NETWORK ESTABLISHED / NODES SYNCHRONIZED
GREETING:
Greetings, Runners.
>> STATUS: ONLINE
first couple there only 4 days lol
could someone explain what the cryo keys actually do, is it for the new extract mechanic or to unlock new rooms or smth
aint no way those rooms arent ratted always
Hi clanker
I think folks are gonna care a lot less about the time restriction when they realize within 3 runs they've either used up their keys or lost them on attempts. Definitely not a 'grind all weekend' type map
That's my point, people are going to want to use their keys before it gets locked for the week
anyone else been having lots of weasel/canary issues since that last update?
No more UESC deaths as name?
Unlock locked rooms presumably
yeah i guess same point different ways lol
No I got severely disappointed by limited availability for Cryo
didnt we all
Let me guess, 5k loadout?
Is it 30 mins or an hour 30 mins
Is there a way to see what you are tracking? Not when you're in the run but when you're at the main menu
only open on weekends as it stands
Nah, weekends only.
Idk depends on whether there are things there that don't need keys. If we get another pinwheel/lockdown style endgame activity I'm sure people will be running it
A right
30 mins
O
RIght, I think they will change that soon, though. Community backlash has been very vocal. At least I hope they will change it.
Ok ty
thats all we can do, hope
Can anyone else confirm if the SekGen emblem for reaching rank 10 with them is bugged? I unlocked it in Codex and have a notification that have unseen emblems but doesn’t appear lol
Not all, rain down hell on #1478943087957905550 , #1478943000792006768 etc would also be recommended.
^^ lmk. i wanna see a menu on the loadout screen where i can see everything im tracking. does this exist already? if not i'll submit it as feedback
i have done that alr, my part is done now all i can do is hope they see it
Let me check
Very good
nvmmmm i see now hitting ESC on the main menu brings up this screen. never did that before LOL
You are right I don't have it, it doesn't even appear under emblems at all
What exactly is counted as "weekend"? only Saturday and Sunday, or Friday as well?
3rd game now is anyone else have dc issues and when trying to recount i just die in game then lose all my stuff first day this has happened sence release.buddy iin game say it looked like some took of my guy for a bit befor i died.
whats the best faction?
arachne
friday to monday based on what was said
Destiny did Friday Monday 12 or something I don’t remember
Completely arbitrary as long as it includes weekends lmao. For cryo it's friday through monday, for ranked it's saturday through tuesday
Thank you for confirming! Let me open a thread in feedback
The one you like the most.
Strange, but it feels like a slight confirmation that this is temporary
actually its arachne
Maybe for ranked, since they did say it's experimental. I'm not getting my hopes up for cryo to be honest
Based
anyone can come due
Has anyone else not been able to see the game chat icon?
maybe bungie might put cryo on a rotating schedule so there would be different days available to play cryo every once in a while but thats the most i see them changing
ranked shouldnt overlap with cryo. thats my only take
They all have different uses. CYAC gives quality of life upgrades, NUCAL gives bonuses to defense/healing, TRAXUS gives weapons and mods, bonuses to ping, MIDA equipment (all the grenades, ammo packs and so on), and bonuses to agility, ARACHNE gives advanced weapons and mods for them, plus bonuses to melee damage, and revive speed/buffs, SEKGEN gives cores, and bonuses to abilities, cooldowns
Bungie cannot make a game without evil turrets that hate you
Has anyone else not been able to see/use the text game chat icon?
I feel ranked and cryo should just be together, just give me my rank depending on cryo wins
With the other requirements besides schedule(rank 25, all factions unlocked, and loadout = or > 5000), I feel like gating it to specific or rotating dates is unnecessary.
Why not? Most people are probably gonna only do cryo a handful of times a weekend due to key availability, I imagine most of us in-between will be grinding ranked to try and get more
Consume a signal jammer and you're fine 😄
Off-ranked/cryo days for gear and cash grind, weekends generally ranked for when you want the good shit. If you get keys, switch to Cryo. At least thats my plan
bro and the fact I have to have people to que with in my friends list actually pisses me off...
Ranked and Cryo dont have fills? Thought they did, just not solos or rooks
