new-noise

[weak void]

I killed like 5 max

[copper anchor]

Always do that btw, they have such little time of usage so it’s best to just have all effects, and they stack too

If you have a bunch of hardware just use all of them for a longer duration

[weak void]

Also this game is so hard to find a consistent team makes me sad 🦛

[mellow pike]

Is it bannable if I team up with another rook?

[strange lichen]

Why would that be bannable?

[mellow pike]

I don't know, there was an extraction shooter game and teaming up was forbidden, that's why I'm asking

[dawn arrow]

Yo really quick is it ever possible for someone to survive 2 claymores plus a shotgun shot with no heals

[buoyant vessel]

thats such a stupid rule

yeah no not bannable, many videos of 7man rook teams just rolling people

[buoyant vessel]

depends on shield, claymore distance, your accuracy

[strange lichen]

As long as you’re not exploiting you’re good lmao

[dawn arrow]

Right next to the claymores shotgun was down his throat

[strange lichen]

The rook no team thing is just matchmaking rules not gameplay rules

[queen falcon]

Psh, everyone is a threat. Eliminate threat. Exfil with no remorse.

[buoyant vessel]

im not aware of there being any hacks for infinite shield/health. there's wallhacks that bungie/battleeye will hopefully sort out, but not aware of any infinite health people

saw some people failing to 'finish' a player off (downed, wouldn't die fully) but that looks more like a glitch

[strange lichen]

Average Arachne member

[buoyant vessel]

was going to comment the same lmao

[queen falcon]

More like average extraction shooter player. The majority of people being "friendly" come from Arc Raiders where it became the norm in solos to just play a co-op looter.

[queen falcon]

But also....yes

[dawn arrow]

Im never one to jump to hackusations I just want to know how this guy could've possibly survived

[sudden stratus]

I have teamed up with several people in solos at this point (and held one hostage and made them clear pinwheel with me in exchange for their life)

[strange lichen]

I’ve never understood this mindset

Oh noooo the game I apparently love is getting attention from other people oh the horrors

[sudden stratus]

it's fun when it happens but I appreciate the scarcity of those encounters

[strange lichen]

If you actually like marathon and want it to succeed it’s better to appreciate players from other games giving it a shot rather than trying to be elitist about it

Nobody is making you team but the constant “this isn’t arc raiders no teaming allowed” mindset just comes off as weird

[terse peak]

I had a rook do this to me, they jumped and triggered both my claymores and then dumped their wstr on my while my 2 shots with the punch apparently just scratched green shield so they weren't much touched by the claymores for some reason

[split thunder]

Must be nice, every time I try to be friendly I just die. I think maybe once I got to exfil with another person.

I try to be friendly way too often in solo when I'm running a free kit. Always just ends in sadness and death for me.

[strange lichen]

I’ve yet to find anyone that doesn’t shoot on sight lmao, more loot for me tho

[rugged saffron]

LMFAO.

Realistically they had plenty of chances to kill you, right? TTK is so low.

Were they just too scared? Or did you carefully manage it so that they didn't have chances?

[buoyant vessel]

some people just like the social aspect and it can be funny

[terse peak]

"ttk is so low" -- average green shield/free kit user

[strange lichen]

I mean even with decent shields it’s pretty low compared to most fps games

[split thunder]

I think it's more like arc raiders is the outlier because every other looter shooter / extraction shooter that I've ever played is default kill on site - so people say it's not arc raiders because arc is really the only example of peaceful by default (at least in solos depending on if you're peaceful or not)

[rugged saffron]

Blue and purple increases TTK but TTK remains low.

[signal bough]

ttk for purple shields for most guns bottoms out aroound 800ms for stuff like the BRRT and Bully, most are around 1-1.2s (assuming optimal with all crits)

[strange lichen]

That’s fair, I just see SO much toxicity in relation to arc raiders especially with the ARG for cryo that it just made me realize that people are overly toxic for no reason

[queen falcon]

Wait what? I wasn't trying to talk down about it. It's just, most extraction shooter vets understand that EVERYTHING is a possible threat when you're in raid. Such as Tarkov, there was no "friendly" pmc runs. Since they don't have nameplates or markers to denote teammates in game the community came up with the "wiggle"(lean left and right quickly) to show you were on that person's team. I.e "Is that you? Wiggle", person "wiggles", "Ok, almost killed you...."

Scav was the ONLY time you would be friendly, only because if you shot at another scab ALL of the AI scavs would then become agro to you.

[sudden stratus]

I had a blue shield and they didn't have one at all, I say hostage but basically I talked him into cooperating in exchange for not immediately dying, was a very profitable pinwheel run

[mellow pike]

It's so fun to play Rook with my brother together hahaha

[dawn arrow]

Maybe its related to the constant and insufferable hitreg errors in this game

[strange lichen]

I misinterpreted what you meant with what you said, my bad lol

[sudden stratus]

I was sniping the poor soul from the roof at first and came in and then we talked

he got the destroyed wing button for me while I got the drone wing button

[strange lichen]

Oh god this truly is a bungie game

[rugged saffron]

W

[terse peak]

I mean, low compared to what? Hero shooters like apex and overwatch? sure, ttk for stuff like cod/bf? erm...bf6 has a few weapons with ttks of <130ms

[sudden stratus]

we killed off two other players together before we took final extract out

[strange lichen]

Tbf comparing ttk in an arcade shooter and extraction shooter is kinda apples to oranges

[dawn arrow]

Double shotgun hitreg twice in a row almost made me uninstall on day 2

[queen falcon]

No worries. Yeah I was just commenting on how Arc's solo queues turned into a bunch of co-op looters playing a pve game rather than an extraction shooter and feeling the tense stress of having the possibility to lose everything.

Also exacerbated by Embark promoting the hoarding of gear for the expedition system.

[sudden stratus]

it's not hardcore enough, I need headshots to be a 1HKO, 2-4 with shields

[rugged saffron]

COD and Battlefield are not the entire FPS genre

[orchid blade]

I don't have an X or reddit account (and don't care to) but really am interested in getting this idea to bungie as feedback so what do you guys think:

If you've played Tarkov you know about all the different item cases (they go in your vault and hold a bunch of one item type) you can get as super are loot drops or barters for super rare salvage. Wouldn't this be a super cool addition to marathon? Med cases, weapon cases, ammo cases, weapon cases, etc. these would be fun loot chases, and could help with the vault issues people have as an in game solution

[buoyant vessel]

even then, i dont think the spreadsheet of TTKs for the BRRT took into account the pause between rounds (unless this is after taking it into account)

[buoyant vessel]

B46 shotgun mogs (i dont know if it still does)

[terse peak]

yeah, but I wanted to know what we're comparing ttk to exactly, ttk is indeed on the middle/faster end of the spectrum, it's not hero shooter levels but it's not tacfps levels either, it's an in-between that's fun allows for plays

[signal bough]

i've no idea tbh i don't think it takes volt vs shield into account either

[queen falcon]

#1478943087957905550 or #1478943000792006768

[split thunder]

I kind of liked that though but I get it's not really the same vibe in Marathon. Especially when you have in game lore that says you can't die. It makes it so life is cheap (I mean all digital life is cheap but it's even moreso in marathon)

[buoyant vessel]

with the higher stack limits now its not really an issue but, yeah, try it at feedback

[strange lichen]

Honestly with how marathon is so big about us basically being scavengers in a restricted area having a more detailed item market would be cool. I mean we are LITERALLY there to steal shit to sell it back in sol, so some more specialized markets could be cool

[rugged saffron]

They already changed meds and ammo to stack extremely high in the vault and I prefer it just being like that.

I don't want to have to start chasing items to manage my vault space. We already have the CyAc vault space upgrade and that's enough for me.

[dawn arrow]

Just had a guys hit register after he was already downed from my quick melee might still uninstall tbh

[buoyant vessel]

at that point they may as well add a peer to peer market for people to trade the cases on, but i dont think thats what the game wants to go for

[rugged saffron]

Online video game

[buoyant vessel]

the only benefit of the volt SMG lmao

[dawn arrow]

Never had hitreg hallucinations like I see in this game

[subtle glen]

apparently bro hasnt played rust or tarkov lmaoo L

[dawn arrow]

No it was a shotgun 😭 🙏

[terse peak]

nah, they want to avoid that in order to prevent RMT

[buoyant vessel]

he had the last man stand perk from cod

[dawn arrow]

I tried to erase my time on rust from memory thx for bringing it back

[subtle glen]

well ur talking about hit reg and this game has better hit registering than cod

[queen falcon]

But see, that feeling you get when you've had 2-3 good gun fights, came out of them alive, full backpack, full guns, better gear than you went in, and you exfil..... THAT feeling....hands shaking, goosebumps on your arms, and all you can do to calm it down is take a MASSIVE deep breath and go..."Ok...let's go again!"....THAT feeling is the dragon that we, extraction shooter lovers, chase. It gets fewer and fewer and the time between gets longer and longer....until wipe....then EVERYONE is back on the same playing field....and we get to have that feeling again....that's why we play these games with little to no remorse.

The loot is what it is....it all respawns....it'll be there the next raid....the fights...the adrenaline....that's what we live for.

[rugged saffron]

It ain't cheap, it costs a trillion bucks.

[dawn arrow]

So untrue I believe this might be ragebait

[terse peak]

bf6 hitreg is fun, you shoot at a guy for 5s they turn and look at you and you're dead(30ms ping you, 300ms ping enemy) or, you peek a corner, guy shoot you with 2 bullets, go back in cover, suddenly dead 3s later behind cover because the server thinks that guy shot you 20 times not just 2(30 ms ping you, 29ms ping enemy)

[dawn arrow]

The only game where a poor person can ruin your fun by existing

[lost wadi]

Honestly I'm going to go with no, it wouldn't add to the game. I think having an event like cryo helps recycle your inventory. Gear is. Meant to be used, not hoarded

[split thunder]

I just like picking up loot and hoarding it like a little raccoon. I don't even use all the good stuff I have just fill up my vault and quake with gear fear

[rugged saffron]

Hoarding in preparation for Cryo Archive is logical.

But there should definitely be an end goal

[buoyant vessel]

end goal is more gear..

[terse peak]

I personally have a bunch of like 15k kits in my vault, it's currently sitting at around 355/368, I run free kit or zero to hero and sell everything on exfil now x)

[rugged saffron]

All gear goes away in 3 months.

Either you use it and lose it, or don't use it and lose it anyway.

Gear sitting in your vault doesn't make you stronger

[steep solstice]

but it makes my friends jealous of me which makes me stronger in that sense

[queen falcon]

Oh gear fear....the bane of all new extraction shooter players. It's fine to hoard it for now...or ever....but keep in mind. If you don't use it at all, it's already lost to the vault and will be gone come wipe. The BEST times in an extraction shooter are the last week or 2 before wipe and the first week or 2 after wipe. The end of a wipe everyone using all their best stuff, because it's going to be gone. The first couple weeks....everyone is running the same stuff so it's all level and even.

[rugged saffron]

Everybody running gold gear in Perimeter this June

[terse peak]

vault does not provide compounding interest on the gear value, using said gear can prove to be a better investment

[rugged saffron]

Loot pinatas everywhere

[queen falcon]

Facts... 😂

Gold's and reds....

[terse peak]

I barely see people using purple shields on perimeter tbh :))

[molten sandal]

Any info about duo mode?

[steep solstice]

nonsense word salad

[queen falcon]

I wonder if they'll do wipe events. Would be really cool if they did.

[rugged saffron]

They made it and it's miserable

[queen falcon]

It's a test right now. They said it's janky and not what it'll be if it's popular enough.

[floral wedge]

if you want to go into matches against people with their best gear play ranked

if you win it's a fat payday

extracting with team value of +100k commonly

[terse peak]

bronze is kinda funky, I sniped a guy with no shields but purple weapon =))

[floral wedge]

Gold and plat is insane.

[rugged saffron]

I honestly just hate how duos seems to affect the gameplay and player behavior.

Solos is neat. Trios is neat. Duos makes me want to jump off a cliff

[floral wedge]

I looted an 18k value Outland off some dude last night

[rugged saffron]

DAMN. What map?

[floral wedge]

Ranked perimeter

[rugged saffron]

Damnnn

[floral wedge]

Two plat teams were duking it out and yelling at each other over prox chat accusing each other of cheating and we went in and cleaned up when one team won.

[rugged saffron]

I got a 7k misriah off a guy I knifed to death in dire Marsh.

That's my highest value gun

[floral wedge]

They also had a gold BRRT and gold ammo backpack lol

[rugged saffron]

LMFAOOOOO.

Do people yell at each other in prox chat more in ranked?

[rugged saffron]

Damn

[ashen dove]

grenade barters bugged? my duo just spent 10 turbines on flechette grenades and it just robs your mats?

[terse peak]

solo ranked(no crew fill) is weird...it plays like rook and currently on perimeter most people hurry up to clean lobby and exfil so after like 10 mins it's empty

[floral wedge]

Not often but when it happens it's funny. We were sitting on a roof behind the main building in north relay and talking to the dude that started yelling going "We hope you win dude go get em"

[rugged saffron]

LMAOOOO

[floral wedge]

I hated no fill. I just started filling into solo ranked and stuck with people I got along with if they were cool.

It's a mixed bag but enough games you'll find some decent folks

[fading zinc]

Agreed. Either I get killed in the first 5 minutes or I basically have free reign of the map

[grand grotto]

Is cryo done

[terse peak]

for this week, yes

[floral wedge]

yep

[terse peak]

ranked until tomorrow, and afterwards it all starts again next weekend

[floral wedge]

Unlocks again in 4 days

[grand grotto]

Appreciate the info thank you guys. Have a blessed day.

[dawn arrow]

Didn't even know you could do ts trying it now

[copper anchor]

How long will be Perimeter Duos?

I want to team up with a friend who has the game

[floral wedge]

unknown. They can close it down at any time. It's just a test for right now.

[copper anchor]

Alr thx

[floral wedge]

So play it while it's around. When it goes away it'll be unknown when it starts again.

[turbid plover]

Bashing my head against the lose everything factory and I had some good fill teammates, banded together for next couple of runs and extracted 3 times in a row

[pale cliff]

is there anywhere i can get some technical help? support channel or anything

[buoyant vessel]

i think they said a good couple of weeks, but i cant recall for sure. it should be somewhere on their public note on it

[dull quartz]

It does seem silly to have the thing to get good loot at and the thing to burn loot for rank running at the same time. It makes the rest of the week dead time rather than there being a rewarding cycle to it.

[lean crescent]

Welp just went cryo and failed to extract

Was stuck missing 1 security tag. Couldnt find anyone to kill for it either

[jovial cliff]

i just got 1 shotted by a melee from full + green shield?

clip looks like cheats to me. (i have not seen anything suspicious yet so i am very reluctant so say that)

[buoyant vessel]

again ive not seen any damage or health cheats anywhere. lots of aimbot but not instakills. but who knows

[signal bough]

heavy melee at 100 stat does ~130 and full green is 160, so you only need a 23% damage buff. probably more likely they had 100 melee + some melee damage scaling core/implant

[shut kernel]

thx for not letting me turn off crossplay... always crossplay people just extract without me xD and leave me alone in raid and then my MAP Is bugged and i cannot see where the exfil is gg

[jovial cliff]

not instakill but the way it would work in other games such as making your character swing faster etc

[flint grove]

was it just 3 left clicks?

[jovial cliff]

i would be a lot more worried about fixing the map

[signal bough]

again it's far more likely they just had the melee damage to do so with 1 heavy click

[mortal quail]

can you get over 100 melee? I know you can get over 100 in some stats

[signal bough]

jury's out on whether 101+ has any actual benefits

[tawny plover]

Brother I had 33k loot value yesterday night and 2 guys on console exfiled without me I couldnt communicate with them

[shut kernel]

nah crossplay is aids when u are on pcc... those console people just ruin the random factor .with no talking or WAY TOO Loud mic

[jovial cliff]

what does that have to do with this guys map not working

i didn't really comment on that even

i want crossplay off too but your map should work. that is not negotiable

[tawny plover]

Yeah of course I'm commenting on the crossplay part where I couldn't communicate with them due to them being on console and they just went and exfiled by themselves.

[spiral pike]

Ok I Quit. It’s the 6th time I am the last person in the last exfil and in the last second something throws me from that higher ground exfil and I also cannot move fast as if something was slowing mewhen I attempted to get back (outpost, protect&destroy 4/5 quest), pure fkery

[waxen pike]

is it just me or you get qued with duos or trios when solo queing ranked? How is this fair I just got killed by 2 people in Perimeter?

[jovial cliff]

there's no solo queue for ranked..

[flint grove]

ranked is trios, there is no solos

[waxen pike]

Good that the system lets you know of this before queing as a solo player 👍

[mortal quail]

Pretty sure there's even a warning saying that you'll go against teams if solo ranked

[waxen pike]

I swear I got nothing that warned me LOL

[flint grove]

it literally says "You may encounter other crews of up to three Runners."

[mortal quail]

reading OP

[waxen pike]

As a pop-up or somewhere across the screen? It is possible I might not have read it if it was just on the screen but sure I never got a pop-up or anything that makes me confirm

[flint grove]

its when you turn off crew fill and it says crew fill disabled

[signal bough]

when you switch off of Fill: Crew and intead of saying "Solo" it says "Crew Fill Disabled"

[flint grove]

it doesn't say solos like it does on other maps, you can hover over it though and it tells you

[terse peak]

yes, it says that because you solo vs trios

[terse peak]

it was literally part of the announcement

All crew sizes will be matched together for Ranked — so bring friends to help or go as a lone wolf to test your skills against opposing crews.

[peak cloud]

bruh cryo is only weekends?

[rain quest]

classic, first few runs doing rook, run into friendly group, they leave, run into another group, not so friendly

[next apex]

yes

[dawn arrow]

Nofill ranked with thief is beyond toxic just grab tags from the nearest team and fuck off into the sunset they now have to go and fight a team and eliminate competition for you

[peak cloud]

man tbh i dont like the idea of ranked and cryo only on weekends. espically is this game is going to have seasons... best let me play how i want and do what i want when we commit are money and time to this game. it feels like a way to get ppl to play longer. As in keep ppls hype up/urge to go into a specific zone. that way u can keep running and get burnt. id say make the enter cost 10k on weekday to help with there idea.

[hard zealot]

I really hate Dire marsh.

It's just not a good map to quest on at all. Too many open areas, too many snipers, and too many teams close together that you can just RUN INTO EACH OTHER.

I'm just tired of being on this map.

[waxen shadow]

5k on weekends and 10k on weekdays? you're the worst bouncer in existence. if you were to go clubbing they'd clown on you for your absurd ideas.

[peak cloud]

what lmao, that dont even make sense

[waxen shadow]

i'm sure it doesn't to you bud

[sweet bane]

is anyone else experiencing server lag?

[outer skiff]

Guys, how to get the not not meet emblem?

[timber tendon]

hey all, trying to link my steam account to bungie.net. I played the alpha and slam on steam but purchased on xbox. linking steam is prompting a deletion of progress from either bungie.net or steam. Do alpha or slam rewards transfer to release? should I keep my steam progress or just continue with bungie.net progress?

[fading zinc]

No progress is shared, however there may be a few cosmetics you earned from playing the prerelease versions

[lost wadi]

Parasitism V is cancerous

[timber tendon]

so, if I keep the steam progress I might get cosmetics on xbox? but it's likely that the progress I made in the release version won't change? so keep the steam progress?

[fading zinc]

If you want to keep your release progress, you should keep the platform you've been playing on since release

[peak cloud]

puff that last brain cell

[woven garnet]

I finally decided to join the destroyer gang and bought the skin

I kinda feel like I should’ve saved the currency for more legendary skins.

I wonder why they only released epic ones for release?

[copper anchor]

Ngl imma do it aswell but I dunno if I should spend more for the bundle

Only the skin already seems enough

[queen falcon]

Ugh why do I take fights I know I shouldn't take....ZERO advantage and quest items on me....

[copper anchor]

If the weapon skins were for all guns it would be a better value

[copper anchor]

Here is a tip

Never pick fights you didn’t start or join fights

Only shoot to kill the most distracted ones, no mercy

If it’s too far away, do not engage, flee

[queen falcon]

Lol, I know. I just get headstrong.

[copper anchor]

Do not let you be seen

[queen falcon]

Like I said....I KNOW I shouldn't take the fight....but I do...and I lose...and then I wonder why I took it....haha

[copper anchor]

If you get shot from behind don’t look back to shoot, hide, heal yourself then pick a good position to locate the enemy then murder them

[proud ridge]

Rooks that kill other rooks are brain dead

[copper anchor]

Just saying things I learned by doing the opposite

[queen falcon]

Yeah....I've learned it all...I know my weaknesses. Lol

[raw flint]

They should add a rook rep similar to scav rep in tarkov to discourage rooks killing eachother IMO. maybe make a rook faction that could implement this feature

[obtuse vapor]

Why tho

[copper anchor]

Also if you had to choose to hide or exfill on low health, if the exfill was a bit far away would you

A) hide on the nearest building to look for supplies and exfill later or

B) run to exfill

[obtuse vapor]

Why are you trying to make everything friendly

[copper anchor]

Correct answer : B

Why? Because there is a fucking assassin in that building just camping and he took all of my loot

[copper anchor]

We need to murder everyone without remorse

[obtuse vapor]

This

[queen falcon]

Personally, I'd do a mic of both. Work my way slowly towards the exfil. Not miffed if I lose it due to that means less runners on the map.

[civic charm]

There is a “membership” for each platform. Cross-save overwrites the membership on other platforms with the primary membership you select during set up. They don’t merge. You must select one that will overwrite all other linked accounts.

[copper anchor]

KILL

SKIN THEM

TAKE THEIR LOOT

ESCAPE AND BECOME GOD

[gusty sedge]

whoever kaboa#4176 is, did you just almost cry on mic because we shredded your dookie team before killing us with the compiler gun😂

[autumn knoll]

im thinking what if they give recon a core that makes her ping enemies when she activates exfil?

that’d be the perfect counter to exfil campers

[raw flint]

Rook as a class is meant to team up with eachother to take on runners. It is not meant to be a 1v3 mode where you shoot everything on sight. The whole shell is based off scav from tarkov which HEAVILY discourages scavs killing eachother

[copper anchor]

Someone lost their compiler gun today and is crying in bed

[obtuse vapor]

Where does it say this? 😄

[raw flint]

Doesent say this but like I said the class is completely ripped from tarkov which demonstrates the mechanics I said

[copper anchor]

Nah Rook is a free lootbox

KILL ON SIGHT

[zenith owl]

Why are we making stuff up lol

[copper anchor]

I might switch to Arachne

[raw flint]

Where did I make anything up lol?

[quasi bobcat]

Completely ripped from tarkov? lol are you okay…

[copper anchor]

But I love the pinky bingus nucaloric

[zenith owl]

“Rook is meant to team up” no it’s not

[autumn knoll]

Rook is at first a «shell » to use when you become broke as shit. If you attempt to even remotely LOOK towards my direction with your gun pointed at me i’ll make you look like shredded cheese before you can even begin to think of putting your finger on the trigger

[raw flint]

Dude I dont even like tarkov but the class is the EXACT same as scav. Its no hate to bungie, but the class is undoubtedly the same. If u disagree you must be blind

[obtuse vapor]

Maybe one day we will be able to enjoy things for what they are 😮‍💨

[zenith owl]

Making stuff up again good job

If you don’t see the difference between rooks and Tarkov scavs I think you’re the one that blind lol

[raw flint]

Tell me how im wrong instead of just saying it ✌️

[autumn knoll]

« if you disagree you must be blind » quote the time bungie said it’s a shell used to team up, WITH source or else you’re spewing bs

[quasi bobcat]

It is not the exact same as a scav… not even close. Have you even played tarkov?

[copper anchor]

Legends of Larp

[raw flint]

What are the differences???

[zenith owl]

No cooldown, Rook can get upgrades, limited ability to disguise among adds, no rep system

Just to name a few lol

[raw flint]

Your just naming small feautures that are missing from the class LOL. You cannot deny with a straight face the entire class is based off scav from tarkov.

[quasi bobcat]

Other scavs won’t kill you, you don’t have to use an ability. You get one of the strongest guns on rook when you rank it up. Leveling up your scav in tarkov only means slightly better weapons but mostly still bad. You can’t upgrade your scav. Rook doesn’t have a cool down. You can automatically tell who else is a rook you can’t tell who’s a player scav in tarkov automatically

[zenith owl]

If I keep naming shit you’ll keep saying they’re small features. I think you should leave and stop talking

[autumn knoll]

« you’re just naming the thing that makes them different » just take the L bro

[obtuse vapor]

„Inspired by“ maybe, „completely ripped from“ I don’t know

They took the concept and made it better imo

[raw flint]

Completely ripped was a bad word, but these people acting like the class has no similarities at all like @quasi bobcat are clearly in denial LOL tf

[dawn arrow]

Hate to see a ragebaiter that cant clutch up a 1v4 like me

[quasi bobcat]

Okay but first you said it’s a direct rip off.. now you’re saying its “based” stop moving goal post

[pearl goblet]

I would say that the rep system is the upgrades for scavs in a way, better gear and hidden to bosses the higher you go no?

[zenith owl]

You also need a matter fixative to extract with your predetermined rook loadout. You also load in later in the match. Your stats are also 0 compared to the different runner stats. Are those also “small features?” Take the L and move on brother

[proud ridge]

Why are you hell bound on aggression as a solution?

[raw flint]

Agree to disagree my friend, you said the class is not even close at all which is also a false statement... The class is very obiously inspired by it so that is just false...

[autumn knoll]

THIS IS MARATHON SKIN EVERYONE YOU SEE ON SIGHT

[quasi bobcat]

Because it’s not even close…

[zenith owl]

“Completely ripped off” is what you said. Own your mistake.

[obtuse vapor]

Not at all. I’m hellbound on people trying to bend the game into their idea of what the game should be

[quasi bobcat]

That’s like saying all battle royals are the exact same thing or all extraction shooters are the exact same thing and direct rip off of each other

[raw flint]

Can you read a few messages up or nah? I said that was a bad word, but acting like theres no similarities at all is also WRONG lol

[zenith owl]

I think you need to shut up and take the L

[quasi bobcat]

Are you slow no one is saying there is no similarities…

[hexed falcon]

just got skinned with 8 seconds left in exfil, didn’t even get gooped. bro skinned me for the love of the game

[zenith owl]

You’re wrong, you were proven wrong, and now you’re moving the goalposts. Good bye

[languid prism]

there's no such thing as ripping anything off in video games. Only inspired

[raw flint]

You cannot be proven wrong on a subjective opinion nerd LMAO

This guy just comes in chat and ragebaits people idk why y'all are still falling for it

[quasi bobcat]

That’s how I know you’re bullshitting about using the wrong word lmfao. No one is even saying there is no similarities you’re the one saying it’s a rip off…

[zenith owl]

Tip for yall, if someone sounds dumb, acts dumb, and says dumb shit, maybe they’re dumb. The block button is a quick solution

[languid prism]

feeding trolls is my meditative state

[raw flint]

Bro you said the class is not even close to being the same lol... Its for sure got some similarities

Own up to your words

[quasi bobcat]

Because they can have similarities and not be close to being the same…. You’re slow bro…

[languid prism]

they're clearly not the same. One is called rook, the other isn't

[autumn knoll]

They’re clearly not the same. One is a robot, the other isn’t

[zenith owl]

Went from “complete ripoff” to “ripoff” to “extremely similar” to “kinda similar”

[quasi bobcat]

Goal post moving activities…

[raw flint]

Show me where that happened LOL. This guy loves to exagerate stuff. Typical nerd

[hollow verge]

This is a really stupid argument that is totally ignoring the glaring elephant in the room which is that even if Rook was inspired by scavs in Tarkov, it still doesn't mean that Rook is a 'team up' class that should have an emphasis on less PvP with other rooks

[autumn knoll]

I've never played arc raiders in my life and I would probably dog you in this game LMFAO

You can also tell they're not all there because they think "nerd" is an insult

[turbid plover]

How about we discuss some real problems such as... I spilled rock salt on the kitchen floor last week and I vacuumed like 4 times since and I still step on fucking rock salt. Where is it coming from??

[autumn knoll]

are they ever gonna make the achromatic vandal shirt or nah

they should collab with nike and release vandal's shoes

[zenith owl]

If they do it's probably gonna be super limited

[autumn knoll]

bc she’s like, fan favorite

[hollow verge]

I wish they were a little more bold with the merch ngl. I'm glad the hoodie has some arm print but I want that on both sleeves, asymmetrical, gimme the greeble

I would buy a triage drone plushy so bad

[hollow verge]

https://makerworld.com/en/models/2443649-marathon-triage-med-drone-articulable-prop?from=search#profileId-2681879 I was thinking about printing this off but I don't quite have the variety of filament colors I'd want

also drinkable cheeseburger replica thingy

[copper anchor]

How expensive is to buy a 3D printer

[floral sorrel]

Anyone else having a problem with the Anomylous event on Dire Marsh? It always spawns under the ground.

[hollow verge]

My Bambu A1 was... about $300 id say with the AMS Lite bundle? Not terrible

[copper anchor]

Ngl I could make my life so much easier with 3D printing

[languid prism]

I just picked up a p1s for 400cad I think

[copper anchor]

Dang? I thought it was WAY more expensive than that

[autumn knoll]

this game’s universe is entirely 3d printable and i’m 200% sure it’s a marketing strategy so people print out their own versions of merch as free ads for Marathon and i will forever stand by that theory

[copper anchor]

Like $5000 bullshit

[hollow verge]

Some of them are pricey but you're hard pressed to find anything as reliable and feature packed as the A1 for the price point

[queen falcon]

They've gone down in price by quite a bit over the years.

[copper anchor]

Do they occupy too much space?

[empty spire]

bungie should totally do a nerf magnum mc or a nerf wstr

[copper anchor]

There is tons of gadgets you can print to make a shit ton of things easier

[hollow verge]

Wish we had img perms in here lol id send a photo of my workbench. You could make an A1 fit in like a 2ftx1.5ft spot somewhere

[empty spire]

also if bungie were to collab with lego to do marathon lego sets i would fiend over those

[autumn knoll]

printing a med drone to cure my ouchie

[copper anchor]

[proud ridge]

So it's what your idea of what it should be? Get a grip people can play however they want. It's a video game Mr. jon bungie

Also yes there are a ton of custom made replicas of marathons guns on makerworld you can print for free, this game is begging to be 3d printed

Sony is good friends with Fortnite too…

Fortnite Vandal skin

[empty spire]

i do not want marathon fortnite collab

[copper anchor]

Omg I’m drooling

[autumn knoll]

it happened with destiny, it will most likely happen with marathon

[copper anchor]

Why not

[hollow verge]

yeah i wouldnt be shocked to see Vandal + Destroyer get into Fortnite eventually, thats solid REP

[proud ridge]

Yes 3D print more plastic slop

[copper anchor]

Please God I need Thief FN skin

[empty spire]

because i don't want fortnite cosmetics in marathon

[proud ridge]

3D printing will make me god

[copper anchor]

Imagine a small event with marathon guns

[autumn knoll]

they’ll go by popularity, and Vandal was the poster girl of the cinematic trailer

[hollow verge]

If you don't have a use for it, its a silly thing to have. I do though, go to multiple cons every year so this just ramps up my cosplay ability :D

[copper anchor]

Vandal is nice too, I can see Vandal and Destroyer getting skins first

[empty spire]

i don't care what they do for fortnite's side in fact i'm all for it because it makes bungie money, but i just don't want fortnite stuff in marathon

[proud ridge]

Old 99' Mac on head recon cosplay

What did Fortnite do to you man

[hollow verge]

Oh totally, I'd probably say at worst we'd see like a llama sticker get in or whatever

[empty spire]

you have no idea

[copper anchor]

It’s a fun whacky game

[proud ridge]

People take Vidya games very personally

[autumn knoll]

They’ll probably make a lore entry but that’s about it, in D2 they put a battle bus ruin in a social space that you could only access for the main story of the season

[copper anchor]

Bro why are you acting like it killed your family

[woven garnet]

I got the bundle

[empty spire]

well yeah i think weapon cosmetics would be fine

[proud ridge]

Too much typing more running

[hollow verge]

I dont even like fortnite but ngl i did hop on to get the Master Chief skins back when they were around lolol

[empty spire]

FORTNITE KILLED MY GRANDMA OKAY

[autumn knoll]

Master Chief did come back at one point

[woven garnet]

The single skins is like 1150 or something like that. I get like everything else for cheap

Trying to get more people to play in discord with me and others. At least competent marathon people who like anime. Anyone fit that criteria ? Lmao

[copper anchor]

Depends on the anime

[empty spire]

you can't just ask for two mental illnesses

[woven garnet]

I wanna start watching full metal brotherhood, I never finished it 😮

[copper anchor]

FINISH IT

YOU WILL FINISH IT TONIGHT

[woven garnet]

I convinced my discord owner to do a watch party on Thursday 😂 a bunch of people havent watched it

[empty spire]

i think it would be really funny is bungie collabed with embark and the first marathon collab was with arc raiders

[woven garnet]

I also convinced him to do a giveaway for people who play marathon for lux or whatever so they can buy skins in game so I guess that’s another positive hahaha

[proud ridge]

No more collabs please

[hollow verge]

It's a live service game, one can assume at the very least it will lease itself out for collabs in other titles

[woven garnet]

So yea if any of you wanna watch brotherhood, possibly get lux, and have someone to play marathon with let me know hahaha

[proud ridge]

Can we have standalone products that are good and don't need some external IP injection so everyone chuds all over it.

[empty spire]

i think before bungie does anything the best way to print money is to merchandize the pink cat

[woven garnet]

BINGUS STUFFY PLEASE

[empty spire]

pink cat plush will make me god

[woven garnet]

Someone needs to make this a shirt

[spiral pike]

lol who told these kids to run towards me with a knife when I am with my riot barricade active and there's lots of space around me, especially behind me.

[empty spire]

there should be faction merch too

[hollow verge]

Bungie gotta get working on a like $70 collectors edition vinyl, i need that OST for cleanup time

[ocean shadow]

my friend looted one of those emotional support plushies and we knew we had to exfil outta there asap

[empty spire]

traxus hardhat, sekiguchi jacket, nucaloric lunchbox, cyac portable battery, arachne knifeset, and mida permanent markers

[proud ridge]

Liquid cheese burger water bottle. With double spout of course

[empty spire]

mida is still up for debate idk what would be good merch for them

[ocean shadow]

spray cans

[empty spire]

Tastes like water.
Is.

[spiral pike]

cryo therapy

[autumn knoll]

you know what would be cool?

headquarters. Where you can see wtf you exfiled with (emotional support plushie, Marathon replica, etc). and depending on what faction benefits from finding the goods, you get to see the HQ of said faction

[woven garnet]

Dude bungie needs to get in on the cosmetic game

[empty spire]

oh they should also make the marathon replica from cryo an actual thing

[woven garnet]

Cause I’m sick of the cosmetics that are out right now. Give me evangelion mech skins already dammit

[empty spire]

i need to get in contact with the product manager

[rare loom]

Anyone else notice the trasnmutation circles under the uesc when they spawn

[woven garnet]

Nah I haven’t actually Wtheck

[autumn knoll]

when does twim drop

where twim

[rare loom]

I swear it looks just like it

[woven garnet]

I’m actually surprised how many people in my discord haven’t seen brotherhood and just the OG full metal

[empty spire]

marathon is a very merchandisable game

[hollow verge]

I would imagine that's because most of us are like 30+/yo Edit: thought you meant this discord.

[woven garnet]

It’s probably why they’re slacking on content that appeals to younger people

[sullen wolf]

on GOD DURANDAL

[empty spire]

would you guys buy one of those clear wall decoration stickers for kids if they made one that looked like a marathon terminal

[sullen wolf]

You have no idea just how quickly I would buy a merchandisable bingus recreation

[woven garnet]

@hollow verge most of the people who play destiny are fans of halo and destiny 1, think about how long ago those games released. We’re all old heads

[hollow verge]

I don't gotta think about how long ago they released, I was there to buy em all since CE lol

[woven garnet]

A lot of us are, hence why I think they’re doing marathon, it’s a newer emerging genre

[sullen wolf]

Lowkey this is what'll save Marathon

the people who play it can afford to spend a little bit more on it lmao

[autumn knoll]

fridge ice dispenser marathon terminal sticker

[hollow verge]

No but some car window decals would be cool

[empty spire]

cryo archive themed ice machine

[split thunder]

I wonder how many people would be willing to buy a purely cosmetic add on that is a "hideout" of sorts for like $20 - it'd certainly split people very vocally I bet

[woven garnet]

I was legit thinking of picking destiny 2 back up, but then marathon released and I haven’t looked back. Im getting my destiny 2 itch scratched

[empty spire]

make it look like the coolant thingies you need to insert into vaults to activate them

[autumn knoll]

drinkable cheeseburger bong

[hollow verge]

a cute sticker sheet too would be cool, hopfully artists alleys at cons pick up on the marathon tit and tat

[empty spire]

so maybe some vinyl stickers

[woven garnet]

I’m ngl I thought we were going to get a new enemy type on marathon

[autumn knoll]

might happen in the near future

[hollow verge]

We did

[empty spire]

the phfor are coming...

[sullen wolf]

If it's not supposed to be a bong why did they make it bong shaped 🤔

[woven garnet]

Instead we got COMPILER

[sullen wolf]

Season 2 will definitely change the enemies, I can guarantee it

[woven garnet]

Yea yea I know, but I thought in general, not just the one boss

[autumn knoll]

I mean the compiler is literally a « raid » boss, probably the few of his kind

[signal bough]

i wonder if there are any red nanites in marathon lore

[empty spire]

it's implied that the phfor are still around, especially with what you see after the compiler boss with the pink blood

[autumn knoll]

Considering the Security Guy a hundred years ago mauled like thousands of them

[empty spire]

ARACHNE = SIVA

[woven garnet]

Well, the phfor enslave races no?

[sullen wolf]

Also the roadmap for season 2 says "new threats"

[autumn knoll]

what if SekGen makes a Compiler hybrid shell that shoots a massive green laser out of its torso..

[woven garnet]

Also, I’m not 100% caught up on lore, what would the reason be for the phfor to come back 100 years later?

[empty spire]

yes and the security officer released the sp'htkr from their hold during marathon 1 or 2 i can't remember
why the compilers are back AND angry at us I do not know

[autumn knoll]

for the love of the game

[woven garnet]

Cause the marathon has bots running around now?

[empty spire]

something to do with the jjaro being on tau ceti

[woven garnet]

I would think the phfor STAYED on tau ceti vs come back you know?

[empty spire]

well durandal is the one who summoned the phfor in the first place

[autumn knoll]

What would be absolute cinema would be the Cryo Archive Compiler sending a last breath signal to its peers and we get like, more during night marsh

[woven garnet]

Oof this I did not know lol

[woven garnet]

This would be more lore accurate if it happened

[empty spire]

the events of classic marathon happen while the colony is still alive on tau ceti

[woven garnet]

Yea us killing compiler should have a cinematic on why we get new enemies ig

[autumn knoll]

Durandal sent a ping in outer space and the Phfor responded, and used the Compilers (s’pht) as slaves to attack the Marathon.

In the second game iirc we hold hands with the s’pht to bully the phfor

[empty spire]

in fact, the events of classic marathon kind of get shown during the original short film. there's a shot of the marathon being hit by a bunch of meteors while the colonists are looking up at it

[autumn knoll]

The lore of NuMarathon is basically « The whole colony is gone and the Marathon is a ghost ship. We need to find out why »

[empty spire]

the thing is, we MADE the compiler come back. if you follow what happens during the seventh vault being opened, we literally create sp'ht DNA

[autumn knoll]

All while Durandal, or a copy of himself, oversees our runs all around tau ceti

[woven garnet]

Yes but I’m gonna be honest, with the many enemies Bungie has given us over the course of a decade or two, I’m surprised we only have UESC and compiler being locked behind a skill gap

[empty spire]

no that is THE durandal

[autumn knoll]

I haven’t kept up with Cryo Archive lore. Is that why the Compiler spawns? because WE made it?

[sullen wolf]

God that short film is soooo good. I guess that's what happens when you get Alberto Mielgo to direct it 💖

[autumn knoll]

Keep in mind there’s also a hierarchy of S’pht as well. we might see lesser S’pht become the new UESC recruits

[woven garnet]

Yes that’s what I wanted in cryo! Lesser enemies

[empty spire]

yeah. the ai subroutines we get are allowing us to tap into the DNA network which lets us make DNA from a compiler, because the UESC have done that already. during the fight, compiler ganglions pop out of the ground and get activated which allow us to damage the compiler.

[autumn knoll]

I thought he managed to « escape » and ended up far far away, i might be wrong

[empty spire]

yeah he combined himself with an ancient jjaro AI which gave him his omniscient powers that allow him to hack us in the ways that he's been able to

[autumn knoll]

That’s actually insane, and terrifying

[empty spire]

the cutscene when you open your ready screen happens in lore

[autumn knoll]

Durandal and Orion are genuinely terrifying.

[empty spire]

orion is a servant

[autumn knoll]

He has aura for a servant, his animation makes him look tough

[empty spire]

his creator threatens to turn him off in a codex entry LOL

he's obsessed with stopping us (the runner) and he got reckless which made his creator mad

[terse peak]

Durandal-Thoth ? I believe that's what we're actually dealing with and not just simply durandal 🤔

[autumn knoll]

So you mean to tell me the guy who severed the link between ONI and us is a pawn

[empty spire]

yeah but it's simpler to just call him durandal

[frail tiger]

In only one of the timelines. Maybe we’re on the same time line maybe not. I’m guessing we probably are though

[terse peak]

it's weird...there's clues that we are...and aren't

[autumn knoll]

Wait so did Durandal make us create the Compiler or did we do it on our own

[empty spire]

you should assume that we are on the final timeline of marathon infinity simply because we EXIST

[terse peak]

presumably it was there for a while before us

[empty spire]

do remember that one of the OG narrative designers for classic marathon has been working on this version of marathon

[frail tiger]

Would be cool if they made the original battle droid a boss lol. One thing that was neat about Diablo 2 is how the heroes from Diablo 1 became bosses / other characters

[sudden stratus]

One of the guys from my first cryo run was pissed enough to start messaging me on steam to complain that I'm a shit player and should quit the game and other things because I didn't know the map

[frail tiger]

He has problems irl if he goes that far

[empty spire]

report him on steam

[autumn knoll]

What would terrify me is if they end up reviving Security guy and make him « zombified »

Dude massacred an entire population of S’pht, we Runners, struggled with one

[sudden stratus]

I did

[terse peak]

yeah, just ignore/block & report, idgaf about other people's negativity

[empty spire]

i think if the OG security officer were to return, they would be dead or an ally

[frosty topaz]

why is there no new triage skin with the battle pass expansion

[frail tiger]

Make him a boss

[autumn knoll]

Isn’t he like part cyborg though? Wouldn’t that make him vulnerable to manipulation/hacking?

[frosty topaz]

do they hate triage?

[sudden stratus]

I'm mostly just laughing about it now, bro's complaining like the other guy and I didn't lose gear, and of all of us he had cheapest loadout

[autumn knoll]

if he’s still intact he’d be most likely dormant

[empty spire]

yeah he's a battleroid but because of the way that bungie does things i doubt they would make him an enemy

[frosty topaz]

part of the plot of marathon is him being manipulayed by durandal

[dawn arrow]

Genuinely I dont think runners could ever possibly beat the security officer the dude is just built different he can literally punch a compiler to death

[terse peak]

I'd honestly see him reinvented as a shell after his death, adding him in the game would be too op since dude was punching compilers

[empty spire]

have you read destroyer's lore? 😭

[autumn knoll]

Oh yeah for the first two games iirc. I’m talking about manipulation as in taking control, somehow. Like how Optimus Prime becomes Nemesis Prime (iykyk)

[frosty topaz]

anyway

why no new triage skin

[terse peak]

negatory

[autumn knoll]

watch Triage become the Lucio of Marathon

[empty spire]

because they are busy making the fellini triage skin that makes the med drone pink and have pawpads instead of palms

[autumn knoll]

TAKE ALL MY MONEY

[frosty topaz]

i bet its bc byngie is racist

im just saying, the only black guy in the game isnt getting a new skin in the battle pass

[dawn arrow]

Closer to mercy as in you pull out the cat o' nine tails if he doesn't give you a drone within 1 frame of that cooldown expiring

[terse peak]

medi drone as anime waifu 🤔

[autumn knoll]

Say that to my teammates, who apparently mistakes « medic » for « assault »

[dawn arrow]

Crucify them twin

[empty spire]

???????

[autumn knoll]

every Triage i ever matched with NEVER used their kit

[frosty topaz]

i always throw med drone to my mates first

[autumn knoll]

like bro TOSS YOUR DRONE

[empty spire]

the destroyer shell is based off of battleroids

[frosty topaz]

especially bc the med drone goes "weeeeeeeeee" whenever you throw him

[dawn arrow]

Toss a drone to your thief o' triage of plenty

[frosty topaz]

never, always the attacker first, like destroyer

[dawn arrow]

Destroyers job is to get gangbanged to death he doesn't need to live

[thin river]

weeeeee!
💨 💨 💨 💨 💨 🫲

[autumn knoll]

A guy i talked to once thought it’d be cool to have different speeds/health depending on the Shell you use. Like Destroyer being slower but tankier whereas Vandal would be faster but easier to kill

[woven garnet]

I only player destroyer, I used to play thief a lot, but destroyer is so good balanced play imo

[empty spire]

your agility is based on what shell you pick

[autumn knoll]

on top of the upgrades that let you run for longer

[median root]

Day 18 of asking for a combat record/stats page

[empty spire]

plus the cradle will give us more control over our shell stats

[terse peak]

which entry says that?

[dawn arrow]

Thief in nofill ranked to catch a team's holotags and disappear which then forces them to fight another team out of desperation which is good for me either way their fight goes because thats less runners in the lobby

[empty spire]

i don't remember i'd have to check in game

[terse peak]

ikr? solo no fill ranked is such a rage lol

[dawn arrow]

I be out here evilmaxxing and shit (my ranked progress is slower than a beached whale but I get to do some funny stuff without other people holding me back

[autumn knoll]

queue in Cryo Archive with nothing but bronze holochips

no weapons, no nothing, just the holochips and the vibes

[terse peak]

yeah, I was just looking at all the entries and it mentions basically just the fact that it was designed by UESC CSL for aggressive resolution scenarios and subsequently banned and that Locus is a later developed version of the Destroyer shell that use live-fire experiences of UESC soldiers for "personality" reasons.

[terse peak]

ngl, that's a flex

zero to hero cryo run with just holo chips

[autumn knoll]

all you gotta do is merk some green shield uesc till a weapon drops.

[mortal quail]

has anyone made a spreadsheet of salvage for all upgrades yet?

[terse peak]

i think there was one on that tauceti.gg thing

[mortal quail]

tyvm, this is exactly what I was looking for

[sweet heath]

If I can realistically play this game at most 5 hours a week, is it worth it

[mortal quail]

I think you need to weigh how you'll extract fun from the game

• if you won't be satisfied without gold items and all upgrades then probably not
• if you wanna just run around and shoot stuff then yes

[proud ridge]

A type people hate this one

[hasty knoll]

Hi, didn't get the twitch drops for cryo archive stream because I was playing the game, I believe there won't be a rerun for it... ?

[proud ridge]

And that's ok

[somber canopy]

Its a grindy, ultra hardcore pvp game so its for you to decide. Certainly wont be very successful compared to the people that invest more time

[terse peak]

as long as you're having fun 🤷‍♂️ if you don't care for ranked it's pretty easy to gear for cryo and other stuff

[hasty knoll]

That's true, I've been watching all of them except this one because if I can't hoard stuff in game at least I wanted to hoard the cosmetics lol

[timid violet]

the whole game is designed to spend much time. It’s a steamer, jobless game sounds disrespectful but it’s just a fact.

[queen falcon]

Welp, someone got a nice come up. Got the jump on me while I was holding a door, they went out the side door. Full blue loadout. Good shit for them. I needed to clear out my vault a little. 😂

[somber canopy]

The game isnt even fun when you have low level gear. Thats why everyone says "you gotta play for X hours first, then it will click", cause you need proper gear and shields to even stand a chance and getting a proper kit takes time. Its not a casual friendly game

[queen falcon]

No you don't. You can have fun and get some great come ups with base level sponsored kits.

[queen falcon]

If you're ok with being behind the curve and not really pushing endgame....it's worth it. Just keep in mind it is a HARD genre to get into. It WILL test your patience. But no other game genre will give you feeling you get from an extraction shooter

[arctic mural]

for an experienced extract shooter player, it's fun at any level. Extraction shooters test your patience, preparation, and resolve

[random gale]

I have none of these

[wild thunder]

i mean i just came out of outpost with 2 fills on a free with 2 purple shields mostly using my knife you can do anything

[keen hollow]

Jus spent like 40 minutes trying to do the destroyed wing button thing on outpost only to find out its being reworked and they’re not even there 🫩

[patent sage]

True, I got some crazy free kit runs last night on outpost. Playing super aggressive with Destroyer is the way to go

[violet plume]

i know people say it's "hardcore" but honestly i don't get how the feast or famine is any different from something like arc raiders. i played that too and you can EASILY get deleted by just two of the lowest level bots. i genuinely think it's about as easy to exfil on Perimeter as it was on Dam or Buried City from Arc. idk why Marathon players seem to complain so much more about the nature of an extraction shooter

[zinc juniper]

bro the shops have been absolutely dog for fkn days now

[floral sorrel]

Going to the Traxus shop drops my FPS to 30. It's weird because it's the only faction shop that does that lol

[frosty topaz]

have you tried tescos m8?

[queen falcon]

Known issue, but I would still make a post following the instructions in #🪲bug-reporting to bring more attention to it.

[frosty topaz]

have you also tried tescos?

[floral sorrel]

No idea what a Tesco is 😄

[frosty topaz]

how about a Lidls?

[floral sorrel]

Negative. Germany?

[frosty topaz]

lidls is german yes

[steep solstice]

You mean Texaco? 🤠

[floral sorrel]

Im in the US. Heading to Germany next week though. I'll check them out.

You ever been to a Buckies?

[compact summit]

we have lidils in the us, east coast only though

[frosty topaz]

no i live in scotland bro

[queen falcon]

Ha, I just had an awesome kill. Dropped down on a guy from the second floor of tutorial building in Station and knifed him. Dropped right down in front of his face. 🤣

[frosty topaz]

theyre lit just a standard retail chain ygm

[queen falcon]

I've delivered to a Lidl before. Their warehouse is awesome. Has showers and overnight parking for drivers. Lots of room to back up to their doors too....really nice places to deliver.

[terse peak]

were you by chance a vandal?

[arctic mural]

Have you tried stopnsave, 5-9 grocer, delmas market, or my favorite corner store?

[queen falcon]

Nope, assassin. Uhh he was I think?

[terse peak]

had a vandal drop in front of me, knife me, then shotty finish

[queen falcon]

Ah no....I have only used the shotty once. I'm way more comfortable with the Bully. I'm also in console only queues.

[brisk mantle]

Why does nobody want Arachne xp

[terse peak]

idk it was an exposed spot

[brisk mantle]

It’s not even really faster to switch to shotgun, shoot, and reload
The reload makes it slower really

[terse peak]

idk I like the finisher for the siphon

[brisk mantle]

Also like, is 50 Arachne xp not worth a 1% risk of death?

Y’all realize they have revive speed right

[turbid plover]

it just takes forever to use a finisher, it's safer to just double pump them

[hollow verge]

Anything to keep myself out of an uninterruptable animation

[brisk mantle]

It’s marginally safer finishers are very fast

[turbid plover]

I wouldn't say almost 2 seconds is very fast when almost all weapons kill faster than that

[hollow verge]

They also take control of my camera, which is far more of an issue than the time it takes

[turbid plover]

in solos sure go for it but in squads it's almost a death sentence

[brisk mantle]

I see people start pumping downed ppl when their squad is full dead

[turbid plover]

get to looting faster

[brisk mantle]

It’s definitely faster than 2s, I’ve shot someone with decent accuracy to the body and not killed them till exit

[brisk mantle]

Lose loot and progression for it

[dull quartz]

Finisher also applies siphon. SO I always use it when it's safe to do so

[brisk mantle]

Honestly if you loot immediately you can’t say shit abt saftey

[jovial cliff]

why do i have to mash space so many damn times to run it back

[brisk mantle]

Cruelty

[dreamy canyon]

REMOVE THERMALS ON RANKED

[turbid plover]

I mean at least in Cryo I'd much rather just steal someone's meds and security clearance asap and get to cover

[turbid plover]

Use sigjams

[empty spire]

BUFF THERMALS ON RANKED

[dull quartz]

finisher just is faster than meds, so if it's in cover I use the finisher for a quick heal and get back in the fight.

[empty spire]

MAKE THEM SEE THROUGH SIGNAL JAMMERS

[hollow verge]

then whats the point of em

[empty spire]

im trolling him

[silver perch]

How many points do you need in between ranks in like silver / gold?

[empty spire]

i do think thermal scopes should be rarer and they should work different, make them less effective the less heat a runner has

[turbid plover]

It seems to go up by 25k each rank at least in bronze, I haven't played much

[silver perch]

Yeah I just go to play for the first time since ranked came out and got to Bronze 2, I wonder if this pattern continues or does it increase by a lot later on

[dawn arrow]

Silver 3 takes 62K rp

[fast wedge]

Thoughts?

https://discord.com/channels/1303855380845301861/1485736508441891027

[empty spire]

plus i think climbing the ranks is harder because it's low stakes right now

[dawn arrow]

Nofill ranked is really slow so it'll probably be a while before I know what silver 2 takes (every time Ive gone in ranked with teammates it goes fucking terribly because they want to fight and then they get demolished)

[frosty topaz]

im already legend

(at heart)

[zinc juniper]

m8 tescos got more stock than the barders for heals

[spiral pike]

Hollyyyyyyy JESUS I made it!!! finally did that 3 step + exfil outpost quest, yeeeeeessssssssssiiiiir
solo is brutallll

[autumn knoll]

Used my thermal BR and some of my best augments on dire marsh only to be match with Timmy Assassin and Tommy Thief, both who of course ran free kits and pushed the most PvP active POI on the map

Do i even have to say how it ended

[dawn arrow]

Always gotta ditch those types of teammates after the first one dies

[autumn knoll]

I left as soon as I got downed

[dawn arrow]

Lmfao you pushed with them???

[proud ridge]

If you were so kitted why did you die?

[dense flare]

Rule 1 don’t take thermals into solo fills without 90% chance expecting to lose it

[signal bough]

don't take anything into anywhere without expecting to lose it

[dense flare]

True 😂

[steep solstice]

you shouldnt be sad you lost it, you should be glad you had it

[dense flare]

I usually save best stuff for trio queues and run cheaper stuff for fills cuz fills is a total dice roll. At least with a group you know what you’re going into

[terse peak]

rule #1 in eve online: only fly what you can afford to replace
fresh titan pilots as soon as they finally attain the skill to fly a titan: OMG HOW DID THEY KNOW I WAS GOING TO UNDOCK...I'm broke now...

[frosty topaz]

similarly, expect to lose it if it sucks

[signal bough]

There are no bad weapons only bad players

[dense summit]

Back to the Atron they go

[frosty topaz]

gear fear is a bigger killer than anything else, you have shi stuff youre gonna get wiped

[autumn knoll]

Because I am not a machine and can’t clutch 1v3s all the time? Also the other team was well fully kitted

Oh well, my thermal is gone, whatever will I do, buy another 🤷🏻‍♂️

[knotty pivot]

Does anyone know any specific places I can try looking for Perimeters "Evidence Folder"? I assume it's mostly Warden/Supply Drop/Lockboxes, but if theres another specific place I can check, I'd love to know.

Last collectible for perimeter I need :(

[autumn knoll]

Hell no, but since I wanted to attempt to save our game I went with them last minute, got two then noticed the guy who got killed first left

Like, as I was actively trying to save them

[latent nova]

what's stopping u from looking for a group

[terse peak]

tho atron might be a bit expensive, rifter is the go-to for broke people

[turbid plover]

Same lmao, I know it drops from Warden sometimes but I have also found a few in purple key locked rooms

[proper kayak]

Dang where do I find surveillance lens? Can’t find any in quarantine on dire marsh

[wary stream]

wat

[proper kayak]

It’s a salvage material

[autumn knoll]

I have my friends to play with they’re just not on rn

[tropic falcon]

do we know when the bp gets updated?

[autumn knoll]

probably mid-season

[terse peak]

I think there's a small chance for them to also drop from commanders or be randomly in the POIs? I found one but I'm pretty sure not from warden, lockroom or lockbox(I'd remember)

[woven garnet]

They’re gonna either change this or this is going to become meta lmao

[terse peak]

you can also "track" them to display the POI where they might be around more often

[pliant cypress]

Man these dcons are still about as busted as it gets im on xbox and cant complete 90% of my shit because dcon wont work. It shows up on the map. I go to it. But i cant use it. My teammates can though

[frosty topaz]

have you tried turning it off and on again?

[sleek pumice]

you gotta drag and drop the items from your inventory into the DCON, with the left trigger

[dawn arrow]

The meta right now is jerkin it in a corner of overflow with a shotgun and waiting for someone to walk by

[bold owl]

Thief is too broken. You should NOT be able to be in 1 POI and have your drone searching another.

[turbid plover]

I got fucking fourth partied in north relay in solos

Who the fuck goes there man

[autumn knoll]

Thank you french thief player who shot someone who had a ZEUS with an OVERRUN AR at 150m+

obviously the move was to spam smokes once both me and the teammates were down and then rotating to Hauler

[terse peak]

@turbid plover so apparently you insta die if you're in the air or something? #📽️run-clips message

[barren spruce]

do we get items back if cheaters we die to get banned

[turbid plover]

Nah you did get downed there, you died to fall damage

[terse peak]

felt a bit like I died before hitting the ground, still a weird death, I overcommitted to knife I guess, shoulda just shot

[turbid plover]

You got the downed healthbar and took some shots mid air, the instadeath quite literally skips beind downed entirely

It happens more often in squads for some reason

[pliant cypress]

I cant even open up the dcon inventory anymore is the issue. Ive tried multiple rounds in a row

[crystal lynx]

who else likes the word junk

[stable bloom]

it's 8:51am where tf are all the aussies at mane, dire marsh is not finding any matches 💀

[crystal lynx]

australian 😲

[queen falcon]

I remember before they could dock....so many Titans were just floating out in deep space.

[dawn arrow]

U guys aren't gonna believe me but I just had an actually successful ranked run with random fills 16200 rp in the bag

[queen falcon]

Lies. Don't be spreading misinformation like that. You'll be giving people hope. That's dangerous.

[crystal lynx]

whats rp

[autumn knoll]

one in a krillion chance

[dawn arrow]

I was expecting the worst when I loaded in left with pretty much the best we could do

[autumn knoll]

Got into a crew fill and it was both assassins and the FIRST thing they did was go into hauler and activate invis 💀 BOTH OF THEM

actual hivemind bro

[dawn arrow]

Gods finest elo agents doing what they do best

[buoyant mountain]

why tf does ping move the clear curtains

[dawn arrow]

No shot really?

[buoyant mountain]

if you dont believe me go ping the botton of one

id send a clip but u cant here

[split thunder]

The people that killed you and you go there or course

[dawn arrow]

Audio cue rats are about to have a fucked up life with this info in my hands

[autumn knoll]

YEEEES TRIAGE THROW YOUR DRONE AT YOURSELF MID FIGHT AND TURN YOUR BACK AT YOUR ENEMY AS IT IS ACTIVELY SHOOTING AT YOUUUU

Also sometimes my hitreg is complete dogshit and idk why? like it does the shield break animation but i get..nothing?

[dawn arrow]

If you dont already have a bass-y voice use a voice changer to add bass to your voice and become shotcaller for your fill squads

[autumn knoll]

I have the lifetime version of voicemod don’t tempt me

[viscid slate]

Conveyance rats are a dif breed man

[dawn arrow]

I literally just lower my voice and it makes people actually listen when I make calls vocalmaxxing truly is the way

[rugged saffron]

I take back my previous statements. Solos in this game actually fucking sucks.

It's crouching simulator

[dawn arrow]

Just crouch bro

Crouchmaxx until you're crouchscended

[viscid slate]

if you play outpost 3-4 players will be at processing camping so you get 60% of the map basically for free

[dawn arrow]

In my lobbies it's flight control

[autumn knoll]

Got mag dumped behind a wall and still died 👍

[dawn arrow]

This game has the worst hitreg I've ever seen ngl worse than that one week in apex

I once had no less than 7 V11 Punch shots hitreg on a guy's face in a row

[autumn knoll]

it’s so bipolar dude, i’ve hit all my retaliator hits today and just yesterday nothing was hitting

[dawn arrow]

Every one of his hits registered on me I was fuckin seething

[buoyant mountain]

its more like it places a small object where the ping is, not like if someone ran through

[dawn arrow]

Sad day

[viscid slate]

tried afk in my spawn this man walks up and loses to free kit xD

[turbid plover]

This is true 🗿

[viscid slate]

purp guns and bag

[terse peak]

I have shaky aim days when I can flick like a god but track like a 90yo, and the next day is the reverse

[sleek pumice]

well either your game specifically is bugged or you're missing something. wish i could help man

[dawn arrow]

Once on dire marsh some dogass thief tried to kill me off spawn and lost a purple M77, Misriah, Shield, Bag and stacks of blue heals to a 50 cred V11 Punch

[terse peak]

I did this and it didn't do anything

[fiery socket]

duo mode on every map would be nice not gonna lie enjoy duo way more than trios

[viscid slate]

donations are always appreciated ig 😂

[fluid lark]

37k right now let’s gooo!!!

[buoyant mountain]

gotta ping like right at the bottom of the doorway

like if the ping would be standing there

[dawn arrow]

Fuckin round on discord because Im too nervous to queue fills after how well the last round went

[fiery socket]

why are you reacting to your own message?

[buoyant mountain]

that self react tho

[dawn arrow]

I just know the CIA's strongest Elo Agents are coming for me in my next match

[terse peak]

I pinged like 50 times because I saw the video, I was like "well that's weird, it's not working on my side"

[fluid lark]

Cause we got 37k playerbase rn. HYPE

[fiery socket]

brah its way more think about the console players

[fluid lark]

RIGHT!! Marathon is GOTY

[buoyant mountain]

lemme send you a screenshot

[buoyant mountain]

true!

[fiery socket]

I don't know why you are always looking at player numbers if it is fun for you just play it and queue times are not bad at all.

[rugged saffron]

What if I want to play the game instead of nonstop crouching even when there aren't any players around?

[dawn arrow]

Who would wanna do that?

[fiery socket]

You care too much on the steam chart ngl.

[rugged saffron]

Good point

[fluid lark]

Who’s complaining! the game is doing so well!!!

[buoyant mountain]

that makes it the 32nd highest played game on steam rn, which is an incredible feat when you realize how many thousand games are on steam

[fiery socket]

you sound sarcastic af

[random drift]

we need solos in cryo plsplspls just mix queue is fine

[fluid lark]

Nope, it’s fantastic numbers and it’s what they planned for at Bungie. The plan is in motion!

[hearty rose]

[dawn arrow]

Niche game attains niche audience mind blown (Tarkov has 32k players rn)

[buoyant mountain]

people forget games dont gotta have 100k active players to still be a good game

[fluid lark]

Exactly

[fiery socket]

If I can play the game and queues are n ot 15+ minutes idc about numbers at all. I just play what is fun

[dawn arrow]

Can really only attain that type of audience if its mega casual and geared towards 9-5 dads (most of whom are broke)

[signal kernel]

Has anyone noticed a really lame new meta appearing of teams killing one of your team mates and then just vulture sitting on their corpse for 15m waiting for you to try and res them rather than doing any map objectives?

Feels like so many games lately have ended this way and since we're irl friends we don't want to just leave them behind, but its just anus, three snipers all just camping the body doing literally nothing while we sit nearby and thief drone on CD to check them

[dawn arrow]

This is the ranked meta kill 1 guy and squat on his box until raid timer

[buoyant mountain]

exactly my thoughts. a game for everyone is a game for no one. this game is a bad game for many and a spectacular game for many others

[dawn arrow]

Same deal for tarkov great game for a very select few people fucking miserable for everyone else

[hearty rose]

Unlocking lightkeeper shaved years off my life

[dawn arrow]

I find it funny that the helldivers devs popularized that quote despite making the most casual normieslop game ever (ngl I did love it on release and up until the squids got boring)

[vapid glacier]

game scary

[void echo]

guys i just saw rook making dash like destroyer shell

wtf is this tech

[dawn arrow]

Agilitymaxxers stay winning and stay overdosing on Cardio Kick

[signal kernel]

Just seems totally anti-fun for the game, we're not even in ranked, all its doing is incentivising 6 players to sit still on vc for 15m

[dawn arrow]

It's a big thing in any competative game that allows reviving from fulldead

[void echo]

am still stuned how to be like him i want to know

[mellow saffron]

Let the wife have a boyfriend and focus on getting S'pht done.

[dawn arrow]

There's not really a way to solve it unless you wanted to turn it into apex where a thief drone could snatch some sort of revive tag by hitting the bag and reviving elsewhere (like thief really needs to be made stronger)

Is there an update coming with this maintinence or nah?

[obsidian falcon]

Has there been any word on if we will gain some form of reward after the wipe? Like in arc we get a lil bit extra vault space etc

[keen ivy]

Damn the loadout quality even on Perimeter increased quite a bit since release, everybody wearing blue shields now pretty much

[proud ridge]

Not everything has a payout or reward. Why would a floating consciousness need anything?

[keen ivy]

going free kits for quests is getting harder and harder

[turbid plover]

It says Update 1.0.5.1 so yes

[steady osprey]

What day do updates come out, is it like a weekly thing?

[turbid plover]

Seems like Tuesday is Marathon patch day so far

[dawn arrow]

Hopefully we get some good stuff

[turbid plover]

It's probably some fixes and minor rebalancing, considering it's not a mainline patch

[copper anchor]

PC performance pleaseeee

[turbid plover]

What were our updates so far. 1.0.4.0, 1.0.5.0 and now 1.0.5.1 I think

[obsidian falcon]

the floating consciousness would like some form of reward for their dedication to the corporations

5% salary increase to account for inflation please

[copper anchor]

Imagine this funny situation the discord msgs leaks to your parents and they see all your dozens of messages devoting yourself to the Arachne cult and wanting to murder and skin all your opps alive

[dawn arrow]

Ive said some wild stuff over discord atp I would either have to assume a new identity in some urban sprawl city or end the run if you catch my meaning

[thin galleon]

considering my family are arachne fans in martoon, all i'll get is "💀👍"

[opal steppe]

I desperately need sponsored kits to be matched with other sponsored kits, Being the one non-sponsored kit guy feels so bad.

[terse peak]

seems like 50% of solos on outpost are just assassins camping processing rooftop💀

[unborn agate]

use TADs

[thin galleon]

it's ok, multiple personalities in this society are either the norm or trending right now. probably considered "broken" if you only had <2 personalities

[terse peak]

no need, they gather like flies

[dawn arrow]

Yeah but what's not considered normal at least to my knowledge is maintaining a fairly invisible average Joe Personality irl and wilin out on discord

[turbid plover]

My life is well balanced between being the most reasonable person alive and saying the most unhinged shit ever both online and irl, my parents would be proud

[night forum]

anyone have the beet error?

[thin galleon]

yeah.. that's (not?) normal kinda. the online personality usually is a complete different person to the normal self, it's gets concerning when line between the two begins to disappear

[thin galleon]

refresh game?

[turbid plover]

idk it's been working out for me personally, ymmw obv

or like, depends on what kinda person you are in different spaces in general I suppose

[quiet cloak]

the downside is when you use personality 5 with friend group 2 on accident

[naive trail]

Rook run in outpost, this team was in command with a lobby wipe, so they were taking their time doing all the events and stuff, so I just used my mask, went into command, looted the stronghold box and left via the quick exit lmao

[terse peak]

wth I may be paranoid, but I was sitting dead still on the stairwell to the top of processing listening for footsteps and out of nowhere this destroyer randomly lobs a nade at me and charges like he knew pinpoint that I was there and where exactly I was lol

[thin galleon]

yeah it pretty much comes down to how adaptive you are to the scenarios around you & if you're willing to truly match the energy of the room or to just chill vibe/lowk exist

[cyan lily]

Ive gotten error code plum like 20+ times what do

[royal flame]

Guys can you tell me how to turn on affirmations in the start of the run? I've recently stopped hearing phrases in the beginning of the match like "You are special"

[terse peak]

you're no longer special. gg, you've been upgraded

[thin galleon]

destroyer sees all (i genuinely have no clue unless used a motion sensor or TAD)

[dawn arrow]

For me the line is strict I do my best IRL to be just visible enough to make new connections if needed but for the most part I just try to blend in and be background noise that most people wont remember in a few minutes because dealing with most people is draining for me. With my friend group I make myself as average and level as possible enough to not be an afterthought but not so much that they begin to rely on me or my presence. Online I mostly just troll

[royal flame]

But for real they disappeared because of the level or it is an update?

[copper anchor]

Watched alpha footage for marathon

Damn those menus were rough

[terse peak]

no sign of either as they're quite visible, was just weird 🤷‍♂️

[copper anchor]

Also why did they changed the shell names?

I get it that they may sound corny and cliche because of hero shooters naming heroes but I dunno Blackbird sounds a lot cooler than Recon

The current ones compared to the old ones sound like a internal name

[autumn knoll]

their OG names are now their "shell series" when you go check out their skins

[copper anchor]

Ohhhh

[autumn knoll]

Recon is the "Blackbird" series. Destroyer is the "Locus" series iirc

[copper anchor]

That’s cool as fuck

[naive trail]

I was took to be able to spray paint stuff so people knew I stole their loot without them noticing

[copper anchor]

Bungie didn’t miss it

[thin galleon]

happens a lot in game dev, they'll always use a placeholder name for something (sometimes due to copyright laws etc. thus they change it before a public beta is launched as the official character names)

but this can also go for anything in a game, weapons, titles, assets for player customization, etc.

[terse peak]

broo...not being able to cancel out of activating objectives has got to be addressed...I literally sat there for 20s watching as a dude was murdering me with a v22 from 40m while I was stuck activating a TAD

[prime trail]

feel this pain

[ocean mauve]

BUNGIE PLEASE LET US STACK MODS SO WE KNOW IF WE HAVE DUPLICATES AND THEY TAKE UP SPACE 🙂

[rugged saffron]

Other thought: Dire Marsh spawns are not fun.

Having a team full of snipers with thermals gunning you down 30 seconds into the match isn't fun

[brisk mantle]

Ban snipers from marathon fire marsh

[stable bloom]

it's not good, but it's definitely very common. Tbh people have been doing this for the last like 20 years, at least since 4chan was poppin

[spring canyon]

I second this

[cursive thistle]

True, feel kinda forced to take most of them out on a run because I just don’t have the space in the vault

[random gale]

Its almost like thats the point

[rough obsidian]

100% SUBROUTINE DROP RATE LESGOOOOO

[rough obsidian]

Had a Destroyer on Cryo last night kill my two teammates in a vent. Went to crouch walk over to try and catch him off guard. He stays behind the corner when I check the vent, and then as soon as I start to back out of the vent he comes around the corner and two taps me with a WSTR like he could see where I was before he peaked. I'm not saying he wasn't legit I'm just saying you'll have fights where some strangely timed or otherwise suspicious shit occurs.

[wintry pendant]

time to fire up marathon and try cryo archive

oh w8. some rtrded fella decided to make it during the weekends only.

[rough obsidian]

Mind you I sat in that vent for probably a minute waiting to hear ANYTHING. Absolutely insane timing

[turbid plover]

THANK GOD SUBROUTINES WON'T BE RNG ANYMORE

[rough obsidian]

Yeah it sucks. Got a few runs in last night, want to play some more but it's gone until next week.

[quick steppe]

Man if bungie keeps adjusting shit this quick... i think this game will do alright in the long run

[rough obsidian]

Now the only barrier between me and vault 6 is wrangling my friends and learning the map more

[turbid plover]

During last hour of cryo I went in fill and found some fantastic teammates, we went on to wipe the map and exfil 3 times in a row. I made friends from fills 😭

[rough obsidian]

I'm praying they keep this up. Playing D2 and having to wait ages for shit to get changed made a lot of aspects of that game a slog.

[turbid plover]

CAUSE MY HUNT FRIENDS WON'T PLAY THIS

[tacit ginkgo]

https://tenor.com/view/marathon-marathongame-marathon-the-game-marathon-game-security-officer-gif-16332562538237755046

[rough obsidian]

I made a friend from a run with my duo where we only lost because the scans never showed us an exfils terminal (despite T3 clearance). Cool dude.

Aside from the timegating, which I've bitched and moaned about in this discord enough already, my only gripe with the map is my bad luck. In the runs I played we were hitting strongbox rooms but I never got the value I see people reporting. No golds or anything. I got better loot off a TTV I killed in a teamfight than anything I got out of containers.

[static lake]

I've come to make an announcement. I'm getting back on Destiny 2. That is all.

[turbid plover]

I'm sorry for your loss

[jovial cliff]

so if we got in pinwheel by using the drone key lift. another team was in there with us before pinwheel was breached. how?

[turbid plover]

They took the lift as well 🤷‍♂️

[ashen tangle]

Hope you feel better king

[jovial cliff]

yes but isn't there only one key?

[rough obsidian]

The drone lift is permanently accessible after you turn it on using the Conveyance Request

[turbid plover]

Once it's been used anyone can call the lift down

[jovial cliff]

ok thanks

[rough obsidian]

I've had multiple times where people do not realize that's a thing and we come up behind them and kill them

[turbid plover]

Claymore the lift room just in case

[foggy matrix]

ive done this, its hilarious

[turbid plover]

First thing I do if I'm rooking it is to check if someone has already used the lift lmao

[rough obsidian]

This. Put them on the walls facing the drone lift and the key room glass so that they can't be shot until they're already in the claymores AoE

[quick steppe]

yeah, my only big concern now is i guess just onboarding new players and finding a good balance between being approachable for casuals but without sacrificing the way the game feels cause obviously those are the people you need to grow a games popularity and keep it around for years to come

[rough obsidian]

Absolutely. That or if the doors have been breached because then I can slip up a ladder.

[rough obsidian]

I can agree with that, yeah

[lone snow]

do we know if priotrity contracts get wiped and reset plus new quest are added? or are priority contracts updated every season and its just faction progresstion?

[turbid plover]

We know that priority contracts will be wiped and have to be redone, except Introducing: Faction ones. Whether they'll have more we don't know

Maybe every season we'll have a completely new set of priority contracts who knows

[austere tide]

does this discord have LFG?

[rough obsidian]

Next question, do we start off with the CyAc rep we get from the introducing contracts? A couple levels to start? Or is the rep gained from Introducing: contracts a one-time reward due to the quests not resetting?

[turbid plover]

#1484690684190658690 and #lfc-any-zone if you can't post on threads on first one

[turbid plover]

I mean they're very minor rep boosts but I do hope we get the cyac rep, otherwise we'll be missing out on a bit of rep that was extremely low effort

[lone snow]

julia nardin did say contracts should be evergreen but if they plan on adding more contracts i wonder how long and drawn out resets could be in the future if we have to be fully reset for story missions every season

[rough obsidian]

It's enough for the first level or two at least, no?

Wouldn't complain about a slight headstart, even if it is minor.

[covert hamlet]

I love standing invis in doorways and knifing unsuspecting players

[turbid plover]

It's like what 30 rep per step? And early levels are as low as 100-200 rep I think

[rough obsidian]

I think so, and with all 5 of the contracts it should be a level or two

[reef falcon]

W change thank god

[rough obsidian]

The subroutine RNG? Fully agree

[reef falcon]

the feedback is good so far

[sour night]

so like whats bungies exzcuse to why i gotta be pinpoint accurate to swap a fkin bag ?

[patent sage]

?

[ornate aurora]

b

[rough obsidian]

I assume you mean the thing where sometimes the drag and drop misses when you're trying to swap something?

[fading zinc]

Wait seriously? I thought the conveyance request was single use

[rough obsidian]

Nope. There's a pad outside the door where the terminal is, and when pressed it calls it down. It turns on when the Conveyance Request is used and does not turn off.

[near mortar]

Sooooooooo this is kill everybody on sight or more asking if friendly?

[sour night]

yup its genuinely braindead

[signal bough]

Wow that was quick on eliminating subroutine rng

[dusk onyx]

lost my first gold shield and unique gun to a 4th party

hate dire marsh

[rough obsidian]

SKIN 7 BILLION RUNNERS

[rough obsidian]

Dire Marsh exists for quests and lockdowns. If you aren't doing those, FUCK that map

[half basin]

Flay every coward that plays Void

[dusk onyx]

we were questing full gold team we killed 9 people then as we were healing a 4th party pulled up

5 min into the match btw

[terse peak]

I mean...it depends, I ran out of ammo shooting after a dude calling for us to exfil together and after 5 mins of chasing him I was like...sure lets exfil together, he was kinda skiddish and I had to wait for exfil 3 times but I felt generous and let him exfil(downed him in circle with knife tho)

[rough obsidian]

TRUTHNUKE

[rough obsidian]

Yeah I fucking hate Dire Marsh when it isn't solo I'm ngl

[terse peak]

imho anomaly should eat a lot more sound and produce a sound throughout the whole dm

[dawn arrow]

I love it when I shoot someone enough for them to die twice over but the game only registers enough hits to barely break their shields❤️

[terse peak]

as it stands, if you fight around ai uplink/complex/bio/greenhouse/intersection in the open it's within earshot pretty much

[dawn arrow]

Full V11 mag into his face and you wanna tell me that this last bullet just broke his shield

[split thunder]

lame I can't just bring sparkleaf in with me for this sekiguchi quest part 5, I have to find it first again. :/

[tepid root]

go to greenhouse

[split thunder]

No, I want to tell you that you just missed your shots

I'm only trolling don't mind me

[dawn arrow]

Apparently the game.thinks i did sadly

[turbid plover]

KILL EVERYONE

[terse peak]

drop a vod in #📽️run-clips ?

[buoyant mountain]

where do we do bug reports?

[dawn arrow]

I dont record my gameplay but tbh ts has me wanting to turn steam background recording on so I can clip these absolutely ridiculous moments

[turbid plover]

#🪲bug-reporting

[split thunder]

I've tried being friendly in solo many times while running a free kit. Every time I died. This is a kill everybody on sight game whether you like it or not.

I still occasionally try to be friendly because why not especially when I don't have anything to lose but yeah this is a game where you are a murderer first and that's that.

[terse peak]

you have a skill tree that literally levels through kills and finishers 😄

[split thunder]

hey I didn't say it was a good idea, especially when the game itself and the lore pushes the fact you don't ever actually die and apparently there's plenty of resources to go around for shells and matter transferers but ... yeah idk sometimes I just like being friendly

Suppose it's a problem

[terse peak]

it's not, but be ready to run around until the guys you're trying to be friendly with run out of ammo

[ruby stump]

I'm really not sure what you expected.

[turbid plover]

I got sniped while trying to extort someone I downed for materials in exchange for a revive, bargain is not my strong suit clearly

[ruby stump]

Lmfao

[ruby stump]

By any chance were you sniped by their teammate? because that would make it even funnier.

[proud ridge]

Brother I hope you get that lucky irl

[turbid plover]

Nah I was in solos 😭

[mild mountain]

solos has some silly moments

[terse peak]

that moment when 5 people converge one after another killing the first person there...

[rough obsidian]

I don't negotiate with people

[ruby stump]

I'm genuinely so sorry.

[rough obsidian]

I will find out what you have when I am finished skinning you, or I will die trying

[proper kernel]

Imstuff

[turbid plover]

Sometimes I throw a tox grenade at someone and shoot enough to break their shield, then run them down to skin them with my knife. Who knew poisoning someone was great for tracking. Sometimes I also throw them a self rez and run away because it's funny

[ruby stump]

I still haven't forgiven destiny 2 for removing so much content I paid for even if it was in their terms of service that I signed when I played the game

[mild mountain]

hilarious how the rats come out of the woodwork

[ruby stump]

You are just an agent of chaos, huh. How the hell are you not part of Arachne or Mida

[turbid plover]

I'm a free agent, I pledge no allegiance to corpos. They don't care about me, I'm just a disposable asset, why should I care about them?

[ruby stump]

I wouldn't call a religious cult a corporation, but hey!

[dawn arrow]

The way this game's meta is shaking out the last team to arrive to a fight always wins

[turbid plover]

It's 2893 everything is a corpo

[half dust]

do we know about the religious cults finances? they may be a corp

[dawn arrow]

The ranked meta is literally just to ratmaxx as much as possible to the point I think bungie just needs to make people instantly die and have their gpu fried if they stay in a poi for longer than 5 minutes

[terse peak]

not even rats, I had this happen in the area between station and overflow, I killed a guy with a bag, then tried taking down the warden, another guy tries to kill me and I get blasted by the warden, another guy runs in an finishes me, kills the other dude and I spectate another guy coming in and killing the guy that finished me as he was finishing the other one, was funny af

[turbid plover]

The ranked meta is to run everyone down 👍
SEARCH AND DESTROY 🚀 🚀 🚀

[terse peak]

idk, in my lobbies it's always dead silence after 5 mins, and I go in solo, so most likely they went in rushed warden, killed few other teams and exfil'd

[dawn arrow]

My lobbies are people sitting on height with snipers until just before final exfil

If a squadmate dies better to just ditch him because they will sit on that body until they die to raid timer

[rough obsidian]

I wish I could listen to music in Marathon and still hear footsteps. Running people down as Destroyer while playing Seek & Destroy by Metallica would be fun as hell

[split thunder]

wanna hear something funny - playing thief, I was on marsh. I hit my super fly wheel gizmo and proceeded to go out of bounds on accident and it was too far for me to jump back in because 5 seconds is 5 seconds. Bye bye all my stuff. LOL

https://giphy.com/gifs/muppets-annoyed-vwI4mYEHP8k0w

[turbid plover]

I have to double take every time I want to type search and destroy because my hands automatically type seek lmao

[terse peak]

#📽️run-clips message

[split thunder]

I don't have clipping enabled on my PC - I'm not cool enough / don't care. But yeah it was extra sad because I was literally just trying to avoid another runner who was right below me. I didn't feel like fighting them I waas on top of an exfil they started. Just ... so silly.

[terse peak]

I was thinking 5 moves ahead but forgot the first

[turbid plover]

I still use obs and trim my clips manually

At least I get to review what exactly happened and how bad I am every time

[terse peak]

my obs setup was getting sluggish for some reason and I went back to moments.gg just for ease of use, but it's kind of annoying because it's not always recording...

[rough obsidian]

LMAO

[split thunder]

I never make mistakes, no need to review so no need to clip

[stone jewel]

steam recording?

doesn't get easier than that imo

[turbid plover]

It's convenient but the quality is... debatable

[stone jewel]

I've had 0 issues with quality personally 😛

[half birch]

i use medal to record and the quality isnt bad

usually it runs on the background but you can turn it off and on.

[terse peak]

yeah, idk, OBS is more lightweight than all others but I'll probably have to figure out the cause of the sluggishness

shotcut and obs, easiest most lightweight setup I could find

[turbid plover]

OBS also supports AV1 encoders and I'm a huge fan of AV1

My vods take up like 3gb per hour of footage, it's insanely efficient

[viral kiln]

I think that you should be able to track a mod in all rarities instead of having to manually toggle track for them. Anyone else agree?

so annoying tracking trigger discipline in all rarities…

[rough obsidian]

Huh, maybe I should start using OBS over SteelSeries Moments. Especially since I've got a stream deck now and can bind a button to start/stop recording

[turbid plover]

Nah personally I don't even bother with anything below blue

[rough obsidian]

Also lets me get footage of stuff even if I'm too locked in in the moment to remember to hit the clip keybind

[viral kiln]

But if you like swarm or something you’d probably take it in any rarity

[rough obsidian]

I think the amount of things you'd want to do this for is so negligible that it wouldn't be worth adding a function for it

Like I want to track every rarity of circuit tracers, but that's probably the only mod I'd ever want to track all rarities of

[viral kiln]

I mean it’s probably a super easy fix. They can probably add that in no time

[viral kiln]

For now.

[rough obsidian]

Issue is cluttering menus. How many button commands can you give a tooltip for while still making menus that aren't just throwing a wall of text at the player?

[rough obsidian]

Fuck you mean "for now"

[viral kiln]

I personally never had an issue with the clutter. But I come from borderlands and division so it’s normal to me almost wanted

[viral kiln]

I mean circuit is the only one you wanna track for now but there will be more mods coming so the feature seems like a good add

[rough obsidian]

More mods will be coming, how many of them will be as good as circuit tracers?

[viral kiln]

I mean there’s legit no way to know but I can imagine them to be pretty good.

[rough obsidian]

I come from Tarkov, D2, and The Division, but most people are just hopping in to Marathon with minimal background in looter shooters and extraction shooters

[proven kestrel]

Is anyone experiencing a strange bug with browsing the Traxus Armory? I drop to <20fps. Navigating to the other factions returns to normal.

[rough obsidian]

Known issue, happens to everyone

[teal trellis]

same issue

[unkempt cape]

Is there a way to rotate through skemas or do you just have to buy them out in order???
