new-noise

[long field]

i'm on 1440 with a 4070ti (if i recall?) and i think i average about 120-144 fps pretty consistently with only minor dips in outpost and cryo with major dips in specifically the traxus trader menu which is weird because that is a new occurrence since launch as of about two patches ago

[terse peak]

I'm not getting those dips with dlss off

[signal bough]

i was getting stuttering then i realized i had vsync on now i have no stuttering

i am a happy destroyer

[verbal pulsar]

It was so needless, but seeing ultrakill with an FPS counter near 10K tickles my brain 😭

[jovial spoke]

/ test

[verbal pulsar]

Maybe it was only 1k. Either way, stupid bullshit on a game that isn't graphically intensive at all.

[autumn knoll]

alright time to try this guide and see how it performs

[mild mountain]

suppose I’ll be trying some of these steps to up my frames.

[signal bough]

i just lock at 60 tbh

[mild mountain]

albeit I don’t really wanna play in 1080 but we’ll see.

I get anywhere from like 60-90 frames depending on the map and it’s fine. but would like to get around 120.

[languid prism]

I sure do love spawning at quarantine, running to bio research, then running back to quarantine

then getting shot in the back

my only consolation is I'm rocking a free kit and not picking anything else up

[verbal pulsar]

At least it isn't as bad as fucking bl4

[mild mountain]

sekiguchi contracts?

[languid prism]

of course. Also know as the quests that exist solely to pad playtime

[mild mountain]

yeah really do not like them. can’t wait to be finished with them. they’re the only ones I’ve neglected lol.

[turbid plover]

I had pretty low expectations for the guide when they first announced it but from a nerds perspective this is actually quite solid

But obviously there are underlying issues and I'm glad they're reinforcing the fact that fixes and improvements are coming

It's just part of being a live service title after all

[turbid plover]

Idk why but 60 pisses me off so much. Probably cause my main monitor is dead and I'm using a secondary backup panel that maxes out at 75 and doesn't have vrr support

I just cap it to 80 and call it a day

[signal bough]

"Marathon is the first DirectX 12 title that Bungie has shipped. We know that many of you have noticed how much Marathon has changed visually over the past year. Much of that change came through your feedback, and we want to take a similar approach to performance in Marathon.

While we aren't ready to provide specifics yet, we have already identified some smaller improvements that we can make soon, particularly to improve CPU performance. We also have longer-term changes planned that will further improve CPU performance. Our plan is to get improvements out as soon as we can, rather than wait to drop them all at the same time. (Even though this might make them less obvious!)"

[turbid plover]

I should really get a new monitor

[languid prism]

I'm just solo running free kits sprinting between objectives

it doesn't help that the end of parasitism is a minute and a half of enemy waves

[thin galleon]

run it on a crtv

[turbid plover]

If only 99% of them weren't 3:4 lol

[verbal pulsar]

CRTV honestly was such a fucking vibe

Nostalgia.

[languid prism]

joyous day another person camping bio research with a shotgun

[autumn knoll]

oh boy, crew fill with two assassins, i'll keep yall updated

[umbral walrus]

...

[mild mountain]

Acer runs pretty good deals on their stuff a lot of times. play on one of their 27 inch 1440 displays that I got for like >200 when I bought it

[umbral walrus]

I'm not even gonna give this one a chance.

[languid prism]

contracts ruin this game honestly

[verbal pulsar]

I'm not a monitor freak. I just got a cheap AOC 32 inch 1440P 240 HZ for like 300 or so. I love it-

[umbral walrus]

Aaaand that one too

[languid prism]

time to waste another 20 minutes of my life just to not complete it

[umbral walrus]

🙄

Ho hum ho hum

[verbal pulsar]

How so? I feel like they are a good chunk of the content. It's kind of the core gameplay loop to get the story aspects of it?

[terse peak]

why tf does thief not make any sound when running lol

[mild mountain]

I just want a crisp display and high refresh rate. would love to have an OLED but they’re just a little out of budget for me.

[verbal pulsar]

Dead ass? That's a stupid passive 😭

[verbal pulsar]

I'm entirely in the same boat. Ideally, Id have two of the same monitor, just one OLED and one not on a set of monitor arms that can like.. rotate places somewhat easily? Mostly because OLED sounds great until you play a game that tries to be dark.

[turbid plover]

Tell that to two thieves I barrelstuffed earlier today on outpost cause they were stomping around

[terse peak]

I doubt it's a passive or anything but it's like 3rd thief today that just straight up ran at me with footsteps only hearable within like 10m and no prior indication of presence or like grapple sound or anything

[mild mountain]

Ive got mismatched monitor styles on mine. an older 1080 curved monitor from Samsung that I used to play on and then my 1440 flat screen. would like to get something different for my 2nd monitor but also not in a terrible hurry lol.

[terse peak]

bah, I need MIDA sponsored kit to complete my sponsored kit skins and it's like sekgen 2nd day in a row :/

[verbal pulsar]

Someone has suggested to use the bought sponsored kits. If you have mida (or any faction) 3 pretty sure you can buy a 2.5K kit

[terse peak]

yeah, no, my mida is rank 6, solos is a pain for ranking up factions

[verbal pulsar]

Unfortunate 😭 yeah not rep 3 the uhh.. tier 3 or whatever TF that is. Which is like 18 or so?

[terse peak]

3rd capstone or whatever

2nd is treasure rep, 3rd is sponsored kit in armory

[languid prism]

they're just annoying

[verbal pulsar]

They honestly don't bother me after some of the bs other games have asked me to do 🗿 Might just take a few tries to get the right spawn.

[copper anchor]

Just had a run with destroyer, had completed a quest, needed to extract, some guy activated a beacon close to me, rushed there, ulted, killed his ass and took some good shit of loot and exfilled

i had like no meaninful loot i just wanted to do the sekiguchi quest

[autumn knoll]

the assassins down two, killed one, the other self revived because they went straight to loot, and killed both

[languid prism]

sure but if they ask me to do the parasitism quests again next season I simply won't

I think ideally they would make a core loop the player wants to do again lol

[verbal pulsar]

They likely will. This is the extraction loop with wipes. Part of the problem is that quest designs can only follow so many patterns.

Collect, kill or control an area.

[mild mountain]

I just don’t like quests where I have to run back and forth the entirety of the map.

[languid prism]

they'd be a lot better if I could bring one of the 250 sparkleafs from my inventory with me

instead I have to go find one, then run across the netire map twice

[mild mountain]

but when I say I don’t like it, I mean it’s just such a minor inconvenience that it’s whatever lol.

[verbal pulsar]

Ok that I agree on- not being able to infil with things related to quests is goofy

[languid prism]

dying at intersection may as well just be a contract objective at this point

[terse peak]

intersection is like hauler of despicable marsh

[rough obsidian]

Despair Swamp

[hybrid berry]

i have died at intersection -so many times-

[rough obsidian]

Dire Marsh as a map is basically just a meat grinder

[languid prism]

lo and behond. 1 teammate exfils alone and we die at intersection

that's enough marathon for today

[hybrid berry]

i'll play as destroyer so i can shield push your downed body into exfil next time buddy

[junior fox]

I just had the best cryo run yet. Amazing random crew

[glad mirage]

co-evolution 4/5 is the dark work of a sadist at Bungie

[glad mirage]

I got shot with all the keys on me last night, my team cowered in the corner and then we couldn't exfil. It was, of course, my fault for dying with the keys on me and allowing my corpse to be looted.

[junior fox]

of course it was your fault... sigh

[junior fox]

I am stuck in 2/5. nobody goes to bio-research and then quarantine and then kill a runner with the sample while my random crew decides to take on UESC lol

[placid vault]

/playtest

[languid prism]

having to hit like 3 pois and extract pretty much gaurantees you face 3 teams

and you have to win all of them. it's stupid

[hoary nacelle]

is there a quest guide ?

[glad mirage]

Yeah, that's a rough one. By the time you have a run lined up where Bio and/or Quarantine hasn't locked down or cleared lock down, finding a crew still on the map feels difficult.

And of course, Chitin seems to go into hiding along with Cardio Kick as soon as you need it.

[junior fox]

exactly this. And what you just said. Ticks are everywhere, but when you need them. Of course, the spawn rate decreases by 100%

[glad mirage]

This one now, with the sprinting around all the checkpoints on the map... I don't know how people are getting it done outside of luck

Find chitin, Bio, find full cardio kick, Quarantine, now hit all the poi on the map before time runs out. Don't die.

It's some real sicko shit. 😄

[languid prism]

all of some xp

[limpid isle]

Just had a crazy run on cryo.. got out with 2 cryo keys, golden cube and golden shield while somehow making it to last exfil fighting the team game is absolute blast, cryo is goated map

[turbid plover]

Bring mech kits

When you get that random overheat mech kits remove it

[dense summit]

Meanwhile my teammates will get Security Clearance 2 and crack open a few beers

[steep pecan]

Bungie has it out for me, and has decided to make cryo only available when I'm working. 😭😅

[glad mirage]

mech kits aren't the issue 😄

Maybe mech kits solve AN issue but that's not the primary issue

[turbid plover]

It's not a contested contracts so you can do it pretty late into the game, takes less than 5 mins to go around. But yeah you just gotta hope you don't run into people

[limpid isle]

Man cryo is all about clearance and taking right fights and right time, you dont want to be a first team to fight in middle of control, you also cant go around being sweaty in there, you gotta kill other teamsn

[south bay]

Cryo is about how many bubbles you can throw 😎

[hot trail]

thats is true

[reef pelican]

LEEROYYYY JENKINS

[glad mirage]

Sure, but the longer you wait the more lockdowns drop. There were 2-3 on Dire Marsh last night

[languid prism]

I don't think there's enough room in your inventory for all the ammo you'd need ot play cryo soilo

[hot trail]

we versusd a team with 6 bubbles... guess who won

[turbid plover]

Circuit tracers basically make you have infinite ammo if you're fighting UESC

[steep pecan]

Did you throw 7 to counter?

[hot trail]

at least 2

[turbid plover]

Of course they happen when you're specifically not looking to do lockdowns lol

But when I'm geared for lockdowns I never see them lmao

[steep pecan]

So you lost the fight?

[hot trail]

🙁

[turbid plover]

Get that mida upgrade for 40 second free antivirus and it's enough to pass through a lockdown zone, or find the key to disable it

[hot trail]

anyone knows a good spot to loot signal jammers

[steep pecan]

Bodies

[grizzled slate]

Any cabinets on Outpost

[mild mountain]

have had some luck finding them off bots. needs to be a purchasable consumable

[cerulean dock]

Why release a settings guide, just fix the cpu/gpu utilization please

[tranquil stag]

Error code : broccoli . Any know a fix?

[steep pecan]

Get a new GPU

[cerulean dock]

Not like the game uses it anyways

[tranquil stag]

Not a GPU issue , it's a game issue. Have a 7900 xtx

Plus it's happening on Nvidia and amd cards . But not sure if there is a fix

[hasty crag]

Please Bungie allow us to disengage from interactable panels or at least pull us off when we get shot. Dumbest mechanic ever. No comments about make sure you are safe please. It’s stupid and unrealistic and we all know it.

[timid otter]

Is anyone having an issue where their sponsored kits aren't auto-equiping anymore? Is it a level thing, something tied to what your vault is worth?

[umbral walrus]

Yep, I don't know why, I'm sorry, but I noticed that too

[split thunder]

mine stopped doing that too, I just assumed maybe ti was a hint from the devs to stop taking out free kits

[timid otter]

"You're not a beginner anymore, go use other stuff." 🥳

@split thunder all seriousness I was wondering if that was the case

[split thunder]

I mean, it takes 10 seconds to just jump in once you're at you're at the ready up screen and grab a free kit, hit esc and go but yeah I have the same behaviour and don't know if it's a bug or not but didn't care enough to report it as a bug

[umbral walrus]

Why would you put something in a game only to encourage you NOT to use them, that makes no sense

Idk, whatever, using a Free Kit is no beginners feat either

[split thunder]

Yeah I mean, I use them way too much and then die because ... free kit be a free kit ... but there's plenty of stuff in games to use when you're early level and then discard as you go along so nothing crazy there

[timid otter]

I play the game like a Roguelike, that's why I like the free kits. I can't hop out and hop as quickly back in - small annoyance like you're saying.

[split thunder]

I really wish there was a way for me to make a loadout and click one button to equip it honestly would be a nice QOL improvement in the UI but it isn't too bad to get suited up compared to some other games I've played

[rapid cloud]

yo guys i dont need tp open vault #1 in order to open vault #2 right?

[hasty crag]

No I don’t think so - just make sure you have the items it says in the key card description

[terse peak]

yeah, they don't need to be opened in order, you just need to open each one to get the chips, the order doesn't matter

[small osprey]

any good lfg for this game ?

[mild mountain]

not that I know anything but I don’t think it’s quite that simple.

[terse peak]

#lfc-any-zone ?

[grizzled slate]

Well, I just had the weirdest, suspect run. my two randoms die to a sniper, I am in cover. they are 2 vandals and a triage, and aftrer killing my teammates 300m apart, the vandal runs up, right underneath me bounces to the roof and double headshots me. I'm a good 100 hours deep and this is the first one that made me properly go.... was this some walls?

Or just say cope

[hazy carbon]

Its been happening more frequently that I run into someone hitting me through surfaces ngl

[autumn knoll]

probably delay, I've been two tapped behind a shelf

or downed when I was actually behind cover

[proud relic]

if i bring in a deluxe key template and exfil with it... where does the key go lol

[mild mountain]

your backpack or vault as an actual key.

[proud relic]

i thought so but couldn't see it. will check again after this game. thanks

[opal quartz]

Cryo has been kicking my asss

[mild mountain]

still haven’t even been on the map! friends won’t get on the game and I don’t trust randies with my keys.

[opal quartz]

already lost 2 gold keys and a purple key, didnt even get to see the rooms 😭

[mild mountain]

I’ve got 2 gold ones and like 5-6 other purple ones just sitting in my vault.

[rough obsidian]

just had a teammate leave with the compiler trace and leave us to die

[opal quartz]

i dont even run cryo with randos lol. It's been me and two friends just getting decimated

[mild mountain]

I want to! especially now that I know that the unique guns are guaranteed vault drops.

[opal quartz]

We've had runs where we've gone outpost with only a knife and were able to wipe blue shield teams, but cryo is a different beast altogether

[rough obsidian]

I do it mainly because my homies either aren't up to level yet or trying to wrangle them is a hassle

had some good runs but just kept losing to time unfortunately

[opal quartz]

yeah the time constraint is killer in cryo even with the extra 5 min

[rough obsidian]

1st match was a lobby wipe, ran out of time
2nd match we did alright, ran out of time
3rd match killed a squad and grabbed compiler trace, only for homeboy to start exfil and leave with me and the third maybe a couple seconds behind him? then we died because there was only a minute left and we had no exfil + couldn't find final

[opal quartz]

damn

[rough obsidian]

an assassin main, of course

[opal quartz]

of course, how could it be otherwise.

[rough obsidian]

the most selfish shell for sure

[opal quartz]

I've matched with some toxic thiefs tho too lol

[rough obsidian]

oh for sure but yeah, on average

[opal quartz]

i had a run on outpost with the most heavy loot goblin thief i've ever seen. I almost wanted us to get wiped just so they couldnt exfil

[turbid plover]

ps5 prices are going up again and I have a new johnny silverhand copypasta for it

[rough obsidian]

that's how you know they're pissing you off lmao

[opal quartz]

bro ran past all the bots in command wing just to get that guaranteed purple valuable. Like c'mon now.

if you're broke say that

[rough obsidian]

I run through them but inform my team to do the same

[turbid plover]

It's too long I don't feel like getting nuked... So I'll just leave it here

[opal quartz]

im talking those bots that spawn right next to the valuable at the end of the wing that you basically have to fight

just slipped through them for the valuable and grappled out

it just irritates me cause im a pretty gracious rando. Like hey lemme know if you need anything, i'll even give you stuff off my kill if you need it

[stable mesa]

Do they plan on reverting the audio change? Ts kinda killed the game for me and was a massive over correction on their end.

[rough obsidian]

What, like reverting the reversion?

[turbid plover]

They already did, not a full revert but they dialed it back down

[rough obsidian]

oh, the boss lol

[turbid plover]

Unless you mean... You want it to be audible from further

[opal quartz]

The audio is fine imo. There's no reason to be hearing shots at north relay from south relay lol

[stable mesa]

When they made it less audible from further, I swear it tweaked the entire sound for the game. I now have to crank my volume to hear vital information and I didn’t have to do that before. My buddy has the same experience.

[junior fox]

unless sound travels through the tunnels...........

[daring folio]

Wdym you don't like hearing gunfights from across the map? Where's your bloodthirst? Where's your deep desire for loot?

[turbid plover]

It was literally only for combat sounds, so shooting. The change strictly affected gunshots

I'm not gonna lie, it's placebo.

[opal quartz]

im VIP 5 arachne. I want those runner kills trust me

[daring folio]

If anything, people should try playing around with their sound settings. Studio ref >>> every other option

[bleak spear]

when shooting range/ practice field ?

[stable mesa]

It is NOT placebo. I played the game right before the update dropped, and then after, and the change was painfully obvious.

[opal quartz]

adapt

[worthy wolf]

Where can u get misraih and v85 circuit breaker? Is it in all maps?

[opal quartz]

im over 100 hours in and have only found ~2 misriahs naturally. They are in every map but they're rare

[split thunder]

will try studio ref

[worthy wolf]

Oooooh gotchA TYSM

[opal quartz]

way better chances to find in outpost and cryo tho

and key rooms

[rough obsidian]

trying it rn but it just sounds like I'm adding more noise that obscures footsteps and looting

[autumn knoll]

met two goated randos and left cryo with a dvrrsh

also people in there don't waste a SECOND getting you eliminated it's crazy

[turbid plover]

1 minute revive lockout if you don't have a triage is crazy so ofc they gonna slime your ass

[rough obsidian]

gotta thirst because of how common self revives are

[daring folio]

I guess ymmv. I'm back to using iem's and it's noticeably different to my gaming headset

[stable mesa]

I resonate with your name

[daring folio]

Dude it's like minimum 3 self-rez per person in Cryo if they know what's up

[hushed quest]

I tried doing cryo with my more casual friends but we got smoked

[opal quartz]

i dont f/w assassins but me and my friend had one as a rando on outpost and he was just built different. came in with purple backpack/shield, Solo'd two teams, got us looted up. He was insane.

[rough obsidian]

lowk we should run cryo some time

[stable mesa]

You act like it difficult to solo two teams as an assassin.

[hushed quest]

I feel like the fastest way to get security clearance is just to wipe teams

[opal quartz]

It is. I wouldn't be able to consistently do it on assassin.

[hushed quest]

I play assassin myself, it all really depends on their positioning and how easy you can get a smoke into them

[opal quartz]

positioning is everything

Strategic placement and game sense is more important than being able to click heads.

[terse peak]

I mean...Vandal can also insta clean an enemy crew with good positioning

[stable mesa]

It’s the easiest, most non-skill reliant class in the game. I started the game as assassin because it looked cool and I literally got bored from how many teams I was soloing. I could rant for a long time on why a character like that breaks an extraction shooter.

[uncut bane]

^ This.

[rough obsidian]

Truthnuke

[turbid plover]

Assassin is op? The humble SEARCH AND DESTROY disagrees

Like it might be a bit frustrating to play against an assassin but Destroyer is legit overtuned

[opal quartz]

i play triage so my friends can play the fun runners

[stable mesa]

Search and destroy barely does anything for PvP. Absolutely wrecks bosses tho

[turbid plover]

Fat shield, faster than you, straight up deals more damage, breaks your ankles, cripples you

[turbid plover]

I wouldn't say taking away your ability to sprint and also revealing your position even through smoke and invis is barely anything, not even mentioning the damage

[opal quartz]

I've gotten kills on assasins just spraying through their smoke

[languid swift]

The WSTR is still too strong. I can two tap someone in a gold shield. Cryo would be a whole different game if everyone and their mom didn't have a WSTR

[autumn knoll]

im on 40fps average if you can handle that

[stable mesa]

That cooldown thooo

[turbid plover]

Not that bad once you get your sekg upgrades

[autumn knoll]

i almost baited a whole team into a bubble fight, i was too late to place claymores and got beamed

[turbid plover]

• augmented capacitors v3 or v4

[stable mesa]

That’s because they only gave it a falloff nerf, not a direct damage nerf.

But shotguns are notoriously hard to balance in games.

[opal quartz]

fair but I've beaten out WSTRs with my knife multiple times

[mild mountain]

I don’t think the WSTR should able to double tap purple shields honestly.

[languid swift]

Agreed

[frigid wharf]

I think it should

[turbid plover]

I think it should, if you land both shots and majority of pellets. Simply bring down damage to like 120

[frigid wharf]

Opinion rejected

[turbid plover]

Dealing nearly 180 is stupid

[opal quartz]

to be fair you have to be damn near inside of them to two tap a fully charged purp shield

[turbid plover]

But idm either way, I think wstr is in an alr spot rn

[languid swift]

I just think the fights on cryo would be more dynamic if the WSTR was nerfed. Every fight is a bubble shield shotgun showoff

[stable mesa]

You gotta be practically barrel stuffing them to pull it off, so I think it rewards the risks you take.

[autumn knoll]

"contacting marathon servers" each time im trying to buy the WSTR from Arachne is crazy, the game is telling me to stop

[balmy pond]

Yeah, i agree with Tism.
-# meat rider randomly appears

[turbid plover]

what

[opal quartz]

Can agree with this. Cyro PVP meta is a little annoying atm

[daring folio]

Bungie will always reward people that are able to close the distance in a duel

[sand radish]

The fights in Cryo would be more dynamic if killing other players wasn’t the sole purpose of most of the teams.

[frigid wharf]

just make the wstr SG like 15k ezpz

[balmy pond]

Some bots be droppin them tho.
-# and arachne be handing them out likr candy

[stable mesa]

The shotguns in Destiny give me PTSD to this day.

[languid swift]

That would also be fine. Nerf it or make it harder to get

[sand radish]

The problem is that Bungie didn’t expect players to be so suicidal

[terse peak]

the range nerf was honestly enough, instead of beaming at 15m, people now have to risk it by getting up close and personal so if they partially miss it's likely a knife fight

[patent sage]

True

[sand radish]

They will sit on a body for 20 mins in Cryo, teams will try to kill other teams first even when there’s only 5 mins on the clock

[opal quartz]

We're not on perimiter (beginner) anymore

[balmy pond]

Those knives be hurting though.. lots

[sand radish]

lol im saying that teams are not playing the objective, I’ve seen so many teams be unable to exfil because of their own aggression

[terse peak]

full knife build is insanely good

[stable mesa]

Ain’t much scarier than a Rook with nothing to lose and a knife

[balmy pond]

THE LUNGE THOSE THINGS HAVE ARE CRAZY

[fallow mountain]

my message could not be delivered on lookin for crew. why is that lol

[terse peak]

maybe hearing a scout commander get triggered when you're out in the open

[opal quartz]

I definitely hear you. I was more or less making a joke. But the way cryo is set up with the whole "I need hella batteries and tags", combined with everyone being kitted out makes pvp way too enticing

[terse peak]

arguably, it's like within a 1.1m radius or smth

[vale belfry]

does anyone else have vault space problems like me? i have like 18 rewards from the factions but no space to accept any of them xD

[opal quartz]

die more

[void quail]

Why do you think its easier to solo two teams as assassin? Why did 2 of the teamates not protect their friend?

[rough obsidian]

I was just victim to the most fucking insane headglitch possibly ever

[daring folio]

Save them for when you eventually end up broke

[vale belfry]

ahh great idea xD

[terse peak]

I honestly sell all the gear I can buy from armory(aside from heals and stuff)

[balmy pond]

I dunno man. Ive seen those mfers go like 5 Ms

[vale belfry]

ohh yeah i might do that

[sand radish]

Yeah but I’m saying that Bungie wasn’t expecting people to pvp to their own detriment. Like I have seen people run at other teams trying to knife, the result is like 11 bodybags in 5 feet space

[vale belfry]

really? i mean makes sense ive sold a lot of my stuff but some weapons i just like to keep

[void quail]

I think they were to be honest

[terse peak]

whenever I run out of repeaters I go to airfield as rook and stock up 😄

[rough obsidian]

Bungie thought the temperature would be the only thing that was sub-zero in Cryo

[terse peak]

savage

[opal quartz]

nobody can resist the thrill of the kill

[daring folio]

Bungie starved Destiny's pvp players for years. Ziegler comes from Valorant. They absolutely expected people to throw away their lives LOL

[sand radish]

Like the problem isn’t shotguns. The problem is people are running at you with zero regard for their own life with shotguns. They die and you die 😂

And if a destroyer wants to full send it to you you dont have a choice but to bring out that wstr and take him down with you lmao

[opal quartz]

Remember those times when both your teammates were down and you clutched up the 1/2/3v1 and single handedly saved the run and your comrades? Remember how it felt? Dont you wanna feel that way again?

[sand radish]

I saw three gold guns just laying on the floor once

[vale belfry]

also in armory is the priority access free stock up everyday?

[sand radish]

Nobody was there

[daring folio]

neuronactivation.jpg

also probably bait

[sand radish]

Just miles and miles of body bags and the sound of wstrs going off 100m in the other direction

[terse peak]

tbh I love that they own the fact that they want the game to be difficult. I'm a sucker for Miyazaki's design and this game does have the vibes of that "everything's out to get you" environment design he uses, especially dire marsh

[mild geode]

some people will hide guns so that if a sneaky revive happens they are left unarmed

[mild mountain]

yep. can often get free WSTRs from Arachne.

[mild geode]

although not taking gold mods off is wild

[sand radish]

They were uniques

Its kinda like the state of dire marsh and perimeter rn

Nobody is looting. Everyone is just on top of rooftops waiting with their butts clenched.

Nobody is doing the events. You can’t hear a single shot go off until someone is dumb enough to make the first sound.

[mild mountain]

or they’re just kind of sitting and waiting to see what events happen.

[sand radish]

On Dire Marsh people do that yeah

But on Perimeter nah

[mild mountain]

think we might need to see perimeter and marsh have something added that’s similar to pinwheel on outpost.

just something that encourages players to go to some location for potential loot.

[daring folio]

Like our resident Lockdown Roulette lmao

[daring folio]

Isn't it literally just Warden on peri?

[mild mountain]

warden and the intercept event.

[sand radish]

Yeah Perimeter definitely needs something to make people move or make noise

It’s more fun when everyone was doing quests yknow

[mild mountain]

obviously not something as good as pinwheel. but some puzzle or something that can lead to an area with better loot that invites players to actually interact with the map.

marsh…probably really doesn’t need anything else as often as PVP happens and the fact you have the warden, anomaly, and lockdowns. lots to do on that map.

[sand radish]

Bungie thought players would hear sound and decide “is fighting them worth the risk of losing all my gear” they didnt realize people would just full send everytime

Half my games on perimeter the entire lobby ends up in station lol

[terse peak]

they did tone the gunshots back down a bit tho so you kinda need to be close-ish to the POIs to hear action happening inside but I also noticed there's some weird audio shenanigans happening sometimes where I'll be stalking around the POI for 5 mins, hear no activity, yet when I go in there UESC bodies allover?

[daring folio]

They did a great job of making sure gear fear became near non-existent

[mild mountain]

think it comes from the fact that your highest percent chance of getting really good gear is just fighting players!

goes without saying though.

[daring folio]

Fighting is also just a lot of fun

[sand radish]

Fighting in Outpost and Cryo is fun

[mild mountain]

that too. the gunplay is satisfying.

[daring folio]

But I'm also biased for small team tactics in general, so

[sick girder]

You fight for good gear, I fight because Charter and Arachne will it. We are not the same

[mild mountain]

I’m sure it’s even more fun in trios! fighting in solos can be a little boring.

[sand radish]

Perimeter people just wait

[sick girder]

Tbf, you say that but most of the fighting I've done in Perimeter has been people full sending it to Hauler

[daring folio]

Perimeter is just post-Cryo hunting grounds lol

[sand radish]

What level are you

[mild mountain]

don’t get it twisted I fight regardless of what they have. ran into some dude on marsh with just a knife.

“he said i don’t have anything but a knife so if you kill me you won’t get anything”

I said “you got that sweet Arachne XP, cmere”

[sick girder]

Like 22-23 ish?

[sand radish]

Yeah that’s cause its still early. Around lvl 40-60 it really changes

[sick girder]

[daring folio]

embed fail mpreg success

[sand radish]

People are sending it in Hauler csuse they got quests

[sick girder]

Awww wait, we still have no embeds?

[sand radish]

But midgame Perimeter becomes weird

[mild mountain]

yeah nothing to do when you’ve got no quests.

[turbid plover]

Slimed some poor assassin on outpost with frags, bro had 3 purple salvage and a gold mod on him 😭

[copper anchor]

im so glad rooks cant go to solo

[turbid plover]

I love frags

[copper anchor]

only on trio lobbies

[sand radish]

We need a Perimeter sized Outpost imo

[junior fox]

how are you all getting keys for Cryo? I keep running across Vault 1 with batteries lol

[sand radish]

Bosses, events, commanders

[junior fox]

I must be unlucky bc I always get keys for outpost

did they already change the drop rate to ensure we get subroutines every time?

[mild mountain]

pinwheel has been my best chance of getting marathon keys. specifically the pinnacle room.

[shy ether]

No bug report here? I had a gamebreaking fall through the floor bug on outpost. lost like 20k worth of stuff lol

[junior fox]

I will give it a try. Thanks!

[junior fox]

#1478943087957905550 or #🪲bug-reporting has the instructions to report at Bungie.net

[mild mountain]

oh talking about that. did you guys know if someone uses a conveyance request, and the drone goes back up…there’s a button you can hit on the catwalk that brings the drone back down?

not inside of the drone wing but like outside of pinwheel attached to the same building where you can actually call the elevator down.

[rough obsidian]

I've had to teach so many people about that

[mild mountain]

had no fucking clue till last night.

[rough obsidian]

I taught some guys in a solo lobby last night because they were friendly and I got stuck inside the elevator and needed them to lower it

[mild mountain]

so now I’m tempted to just try and hit all the armories if possible and just wait for someone to hit the drone.

then try and call it back down so I can go up there without alerting the rest of the lobby.

to your knowledge, do you know if it’s only within a certain amount of time? or can it be done infinitely if someone uses a conveyance request?

[rough obsidian]

I just rush Conveyance spawns

[rough obsidian]

it opens it for the rest of that game

[mild mountain]

great to know.

did anyone ever figure out if there’s a concrete number of yellow cards that spawn? or is it random? trying to figure out if it’s even feasibly possible to hit all 3 armories + pinnacle.

dumb question. forget that commanders drop them randomly so I guess it technically is possible regardless of spawns.

[terse peak]

commander drop rate is kinda low

[crystal olive]

bro the ares railgun is asssss

[terse peak]

holy wtf everyone spawned in airfield and flight control, first 2 min killed 2, got killed while recovering and then spectate showed me that guy getting killed and the pov getting killed

[mild mountain]

Every rail gun is. I don’t understand what they’re supposed to be good for.

[crystal olive]

genuinely, no range, bad damage for how long it takes to charge, and they can't even hold a charge. They're literally only good to sell since they cost so much

[mild mountain]

feel the same way. hopefully they get buffed so they’re actually worthwhile.

otherwise why not go in with a longshot/outlander/channel rifle

[rough obsidian]

V00 has a challenge to kill 7 commanders on Cryo with it, and, admittedly, it's pretty good at it

it like 3 shots commanders

[proven sedge]

Volt weapons are better at taking out UESC imo, which would make them great for sniping commanders and such

[mild mountain]

okay so PVE against tanky enemies is the intended use. I just heard they weren’t even good at that.

[rough obsidian]

Well you're in luck, the V00 is a volt cell weapon

[mild mountain]

Volt weapons with the circuit tracers mod are just beautiful. love having infinite ammo.

[rough obsidian]

the V00 seems serviceable at it, as for the Ares, you use it like a sniper

[crystal olive]

Commanders arent even that much of a threat though if you're not playing with randos. PVP is literally the only thing that is difficult and actively kills me all the time. If it's bad at pvp it's just not a worthwhile weapon to run imo

[proven sedge]

Also, the "ammo density" is much better on Volt

[rough obsidian]

ANY weapon with circuit tracers is goated

Try a demolisher HMG with a blue or higher circuit tracers on it, trust me

[mild mountain]

yeah true. does it refill ballistic weapons from nothing or from your inventory?

[rough obsidian]

from nothing. I thought it was from inventory and then tried it. it just makes ammo out of nothing like how stuff used to work back in D1

[proven sedge]

regardless, removing the need for reload with the Demolisher...

[mild mountain]

oh shit alright I’ve been slapping them on volt guns because I thought that’s how it worked.

guess it’s just the ammo bag that works like how I was thinking.

[rough obsidian]

yeah I did the same at first but absolutely run them on any weapon you have it's insane. BR33, any LMG, the Bully, Volt weapons, everything.

[turbid plover]

true wish we could buy them

[rough obsidian]

the day they give us a barter for blue circuit tracer is the day I go broke on whatever salvage is required

[mild mountain]

fuck I should have traded for more with Traxus then because I just had the purple one in my armory

[rough obsidian]

Lucky bastard. Hey, at least todays gold mod is the Misriah full auto

[mild mountain]

is that the part the same for everybody? or is it account specific? I know the barters vary.

[rough obsidian]

Barters vary, the direct purchases are the same for everyone I believe

[mild mountain]

sick. will have to buy that if it’s there.

[rough obsidian]

It should be

I just bought it like 15 minutes ago

[mild mountain]

wish the prestige mod for the repeater actually added a scope. it’s pretty good vs PVE but I still don’t like the irons.

[carmine estuary]

whats the best method to ge trich without cryo arc

[oblique gulch]

solo outpost

[carmine estuary]

i actauly get dogshit out of the crates

[oblique gulch]

I am talking about pinwheel speedrun

[mild mountain]

pinnacle and command wind is where the best loot is. if you’re wanting credits make sure you pick up every blue/purple valuable.

[rough obsidian]

guaranteed 4k valuable in the command room +3/4 strongboxes and a secured resource (sometimes two), if you have full reign of pinwheel its impossible to come out poor

[carmine estuary]

i want to find like guns like purps and keys

[oblique gulch]

Was there any info about plans to add an option to cancel actions? I am tired of dying because I’m using a scan or terminal. It’s way too long.

[oblique gulch]

For guns pinwheel 100%
For keys you need to kill bosses

[thin sapphire]

i have found keys in the pinnacle box

[oblique gulch]

just luck

[mild mountain]

yeah pinnacle is a good place to hunt for keys.

[thin sapphire]

thats where i got cryo 5 but wardens are probably better

i want the graverobber title im so close lol

[oblique gulch]

Farmed all of the boxes for 12-13 times inside the pinwheel and got only 1 purple key

[rough obsidian]

Just had TWO seperate people camping Conveyance Request literally 2 minutes into match.
GET.
A.
LIFE.

[thin sapphire]

this is the way now

it has like 4 spawns in a perfect rush route

[mild mountain]

I should probably do that tonight, farm a few wardens for potential keys.

[fervent oak]

Am i selling for using 144hz 27inch 4k with 4090 should i upgrade to 480hz maybe

[oblique gulch]

You will not get more then 150 fps mate

[jolly fractal]

XD

[fervent oak]

FAHHH

[mild mountain]

^ no point in getting a monitor with a higher refresh rate than the frames you might be getting

I don’t think there’s much of a point getting a monitor with a refresh rate higher than like 144 lol.

[oblique gulch]

I got 5070ti - i5 14600K 32 gb ddr5 and I play 80-90 fps in cryo

[fervent oak]

Thats what i thought but everyones like nahh bro get 240hz get 480hz 1440p its a game changer dont worry about 4k but i play single player games too mf

[thin sapphire]

for marathon no but for basically 90% of the games that exist for pc you can crank out some insane frames and see unbelievably refresh rate

[rugged lagoon]

whats ur fav font

[oblique gulch]

Most singleplayer games can run 120-140 fps max. Even less with 4k.

[fervent oak]

I was thinkin of getting a curved oled monitor with a higher refresh rate and 4k honestly

[rugged lagoon]

why?

[mild mountain]

only real direction id go to as someone who’s currently playing on a 1440 monitor with like 165 HZ is an OLED

[fervent oak]

Just want to upgrade

[rugged lagoon]

you shouldnt

[daring folio]

oled will be the biggest difference tbh. you'll never want to go back to ips or tn panels

[fervent oak]

Yeah then use my old as a secondary

[thin sapphire]

oled is good but good luck getting a monitor in reasonable price range thats above 165hz

[rugged lagoon]

true guy

[fervent oak]

Yeah probably 1k or more

[mild mountain]

yeah they’re outrageous. waiting for them to become more consumer friendly.

[rugged lagoon]

good luck finding an oled that isnt a scam

[thin sapphire]

if you can afford it absolutely get yourself a 300+ hz monitor its fucking crazy lol

[oblique gulch]

what are you talking about?

[rugged lagoon]

how much did your monitor cost?

[steep solstice]

i think they mean hdr

[oblique gulch]

why?

[fervent oak]

Ong ill find one and go to microcenter rn if jts in store

[rugged lagoon]

you are the one asking the question

[thin sapphire]

microcenter is the way brother

[mild mountain]

seems like you can get a few OLEDs on Amazon for cheaper than I remember with pretty high refresh rates.

[oblique gulch]

and you replied with a question

[fervent oak]

Would 32 inch be a good monitor size? Or stick to 27

[rugged lagoon]

my question answers your qeustion, if you answer honestly

[thin sapphire]

might as well go big . i have 27 inch i think. but im still on 1440p

[daring folio]

32 if you play a lot of single player games, but 27 is the biggest i'd go for anything competitive

[oblique gulch]

dude, if something costs more then something else how is it a scam? there are tons of products which have different specs, for different goals.

[rugged lagoon]

"if something costs more than something else, how is it s scam?

marathon players fr

[oblique gulch]

Nah you just live in your own world, gl

[fervent oak]

Imma be competitive but imma keep it real im not tryna be ultra swamp ass and esport lol

[thin sapphire]

interesting i completely forgot how weird it was switching off tiny 20 inch monitors

thanks for that memory unlocked

[oblique gulch]

32 inches seems like to much for a monitor imo

[carmine estuary]

i be killing them i get nothing

am i killing the wtong ones like i kill the premeiter one alot

[daring folio]

nah ultra swamp ass competitive and i'm telling you to grab that asus rog 360hz oled lmao. 27 should do you just fine

[thin sapphire]

imagine playing marathon on a 15 inch crt monitor in 1994

https://tenor.com/view/marathon-bungie-bungie-marathon-classic-marathon-aleph-one-gif-15748062047549293355

[oblique gulch]

you can use free kits. You may have 3-4 bad raids and then 5th will be a nice one, with 30k stash. You lose nothing too.

[rugged lagoon]

you shouldnt buy some overpriced oled TV

[fervent oak]

That one does look good actually, my friend put me onto a sony monitor thats 1440p 480hz for $1,199 usd

[carmine estuary]

what boss is best to farm honstly

[thin sapphire]

i un ironically want the swamp ass monitor

[carmine estuary]

bc i wnna get sme dire marsh keys and premiter keys

[thin sapphire]

maybe the outpost one but its always a dice roll if the wardens spawn

[carmine estuary]

okay im go with a kit and try

[visual wedge]

guys does anyone have a clue why I can't post on lfg?

[fervent oak]

That asus monitor is on sale for $900

[barren pumice]

Why can’t I talk in looking for crew?

Stupid shit won’t let me find ppl. You have to sign up to talk or something 😐?

[mild mountain]

I’m seeing a few OLED monitors for sub 400 with pretty high refresh rates.

[amber quail]

wow bungie thanks for dropping a performance guide like changing the graphics has literally any effect on fps instead of just outright fixing the performance issues

[mild mountain]

seem to remember them being much higher.

[lone linden]

samsung has a 180hz 1440p oled for 330 that im going to buy

they have a student discount plus a 200$ sale

27 Inch Odyssey OLED G50SF

[mild mountain]

yeah I’m looking at a 26.5 inch Acer right now for 380.

seems odd to go 26.5 inches but maybe that makes a difference.

[daring folio]

considering you're coming from 144hz, either choice will be good. i am more partial to the asus one though just bc qd-oled>>

[terse peak]

lel I think I just scared a guy shitless, I thought there would be significantly more people left on the map with 8 mins left and rushed his exfil, grappled into it at counter and I'm pretty sure they looted pinwheel =))

[barren pumice]

U guys suck

No one helped😒

[terse peak]

#lfc-any-zone instead of #1484690684190658690

[daring folio]

#lfc-any-zone or #1484690684190658690 ?

[sonic ice]

yo can I get the Datamine discord from anyone?

[dense flare]

Anyone else slow way down leveling? I feel like when I hit level 50ish it’s taking way longer to level up than before

[silk sable]

I can’t post in the specific maps sections

[terse peak]

So there's a normal lfg channel ( #lfc-any-zone ) which works perfectly fine but can be a bit chaotic and then there's #1484690684190658690 which is thread based per location and is non functional for a lot of people

[silk sable]

Yeah it’s kinda annoying

[zinc juniper]

the optimization guide does jack shit. i have a 5060ti 16gb and stuggle to keep a steady 60fps in cryo archive, they didnt optimize at all for new generation cards and unfortunately it really shows, fix the problem man

[amber quail]

performance issues suck -> drop a performance guide that does literally nothing bc the game is so poorly optimized the graphic settings genuinely have zero effect on fps instead of fixing problem great work bungie

i enjoyed marathon in mctt when my frames weren't complete ass there genuinely shouldn't be a world in which tarkov performs better than marathon that's just insane

[random gale]

They did say the guide was a SHORT term investment
Long term is actual performance fixes which they've already stated they've found a few areas of optimization specifically for CPU bound rigs, which they need to fix, test, and get certified by the third parties before they can push it

[amber quail]

any day now bro it shouldn't take this long to fix something that wasnt a problem during mctt 😭

[mild mountain]

I also have a 5060 TI and my performance hasn’t been dreadful. just wish it was better.

[silk sable]

This sounds like a gpu voltage issue maybe try hard shutting down your pc

[zinc juniper]

thats what i said, the graphics settings themselves save maybe 5fps... not even in some cases, whats the point to the optimization guide besides reminding us how poorly optimized things are

[random gale]

They also confirmed that the game doesn't use all cores and threads which is kinda 🤡 but it is what it is

[signal bough]

I have an RX6800 and with a few tweaks I'm stable at 60 across every map

[terse peak]

3rd party certification is mostly because consoles and it's such a slog cuz it can take up to a month for it...

[random gale]

I have a 2060 and a 9600k and with a few tweaks i can get a stable 60 across every map

[daring folio]

All I took from the guide is that I need to upgrade my Ryzen CPU to the best thing I can afford

[zinc juniper]

not a voltage issue, HwInfo and MSI afterburner show no signs of voltage problems. im usually overclocked and around 975mV at 3100-3200Mhz

[rugged lagoon]

a monitor for 900 isnt a sale

[amber quail]

feels like a slap in the face bro 😭

[rugged lagoon]

thats called a scam

[random gale]

Real, all i took from the guide was the 6 core 6 thread 9600k isnt cutting it anymore LMAO

[zinc juniper]

feels like a spit in the face if im being real

[random gale]

considering they recommend NO LESS than 16 threads

[rugged lagoon]

i wish i could sell a monitor to a fool

[silk sable]

Yeah those systems aren’t perfect at detecting everything, I’ve had times where it’s told me I had no issues but I was barely getting 60 fps despite knowing I could reach way more and a hard shutting down fixes it

[amber quail]

liquidating marathon into my next tank of gas until they get their performance straight

[signal bough]

if you can't get 64 threads is it really worth it? think about that.

[zinc juniper]

are u talking about power cycling?

[random gale]

mb lemme get the threadripper core ultra 9 10900X3D

[zinc juniper]

sheeesh i heard u said u wanted to buy me one too

[patent sage]

Glorg

[daring folio]

congrats on the 100fps in cryo ship me one too

[signal bough]

upgrade to a 156000XD if you want a minimum of 60 frames

[zinc juniper]

so real

[silk sable]

Yeah

[rugged lagoon]

did you guys know oled makes your games look better "meme"

buy your oleds here

[fervent oak]

It was $1200 before😂

[rugged lagoon]

have you ever owned an ips monitor that is at least 144 hz

what made you desire more?

[fervent oak]

More peformance and just because id like the monitor to not lag behind my other expensive parts

[languid prism]

okay I'm logging in again, everyone get ready for some hefty whining

[daring folio]

can you wait for the guy that comes in here that does wimpy whining?

[languid prism]

that might also be me?

[rugged lagoon]

you think an ips monitor is lagging behind your hardware?

[random gale]

cheerios or corn flakes

[daring folio]

my bad chief. pls carry on

[zinc juniper]

i power cycle nightly when i turn the PC off, usually never does anything. only thing i could think of for a "voltage issue" would be my PSU being 750w and not giving enough power or the 8pin extension i got isnt doing too hot. ill try going with the direct PSU cable and see if it helps but truly this is a game issue because Val, CS, PubG, Arc, The finals, and lots of other games are getting 150-400 fps depending on the title. its JUST marathon that has an issue

[rugged lagoon]

what a rediculous idea

[languid prism]

frosted flakes

but if I had to choose between those 2, easily multigrain cheerios. Multigrain cheerios have a depth of flavor and a hint of sweetness

[fervent oak]

The cocky version is just me saying i have disposable money and can afford so why the fuck not

[languid prism]

if I had to choose any cereal, it'd probably be cinnamon toast crunch

[random gale]

frosted mini wheats 🔥

[languid prism]

but frosted flakes are just corn flakes with sugar, so I think those count for the question

[rugged lagoon]

thank your parents 4 me

[daring folio]

It's day and night for any competitive titles unless you subscribe to the myth that the human eye can't perceive anything above 60fps or whatever

[random gale]

fair

[rugged lagoon]

you mean deadlock?

[silk sable]

I’m not saying it doesn’t have its issues but 60 fps seems exaggerated if you say you have a 5060ti unless your cpu is not on par with it? I have a 9800x3d and a 5070ti and the lowest I see it go at times would probably be like 110-120fps

[daring folio]

speaking of which, when tf are they finally releasing that game?

[languid prism]

does one of the factions have a free backpack upgrade

[signal bough]

silksong already came out

[fervent oak]

Boiii thats my money

[zinc juniper]

i got a i7 12700kf and a 5060ti 16gb, with 32gb ddr5. the 5060ti is magnitudes lower than the 5070ti not even mentioning that its a CPU bound game and you have literally the second best CPU in the world right now for gaming and that thing alone pulls like 30% more performance in CPU intensive games like this one

[mental flax]

shooting 8ms faster has won me many world championships

[terse peak]

huh fake bag doesn't count as explosive?

[daring folio]

first car was a 2001 Nissan Xterra with like a bazillion miles. bought a 2017 Chevy Malibu in 2018 or 2019 that had line 20k miles on it then and has been my daily driver since.

[rugged lagoon]

why buy a tesla over a honda ?

for electric?

[random gale]

FSD in particular though

[terse peak]

yeah, I have a work colleague that got a tesla just because he hates driving

[mild mountain]

I really want a ford maverick but think I’ll wait till the wife’s car is paid off before getting into another car note.

[rugged lagoon]

driving is fine its the other people on the road thats sus, id be scared of using that

is Fuck banned here

[daring folio]

depends on where you live tbh. it's more affordabel for my friends in california to drive a tesla than to own a toyota or honda since they can just charge at work

[rugged lagoon]

wait i just had a messaged hidden for saying that Kia drivers are bad

[zealous dirge]

Also just preference based on interior and stuff.

[humble gorge]

i wasn't extracting

[zealous dirge]

Extraction shooter*

[daring folio]

true. i can't talk too much shit because i drove a tucson for years

[spare relic]

Has anyone got their twitch drops yet, cause I got none since server slam

[humble gorge]

i've gotten literally every single drop i think your connection is broken

[terse peak]

I was shooting a guy with the v66 , threw a nade and then as I died I noticed I was tap firing the v22...

[zealous dirge]

You just have to be prepared for that sort of thing. Always be near cover and ready to escape if you need to

[daring folio]

if they're already claimed in your twitch inventory, try relinking your accounts

[mild mountain]

really like Hyundai cars a lot.

[rugged lagoon]

im a civic supremacist, if you dont care for awd or rwd, civic is perfection

[zealous dirge]

Sometimes there’s nothing you can do but it’s good to always have a plan in case you get shot at

[mental flax]

any Fiat enjoyers in the chat

[spare relic]

I’ll try that, thank you

[daring folio]

I also love hyundais and civics but my mechanic friends hatedd when i brought in the tucson lol

[daring folio]

hope it works for you, tenno

[terse peak]

for the last batch I noticed that they only showed me the twitch supporter crate in the mail, but I had the stickers in the customization

[mighty radish]

Shoutout to the two randoms I just exfilled out of cryo

This map is so fun, i wish there was more time to explore

[daring folio]

yeah imagine having 10 more minutes in cryo lol

[terse peak]

isn't that the magic of it tho? discovering and learning it through sweat and tears over a longer period of time?

[rugged saffron]

Just had the game crash from me being in the vault menu and trying to open weapon details to put a mod on 😭

I mean this is what you sign up for when you play a game on release

And I am enjoying the game. Absolutely worth it.

[daring folio]

how long was your game session at that point? just curious if that old destiny bug where you can't have the game open for more than 6 hrs exists

[rough obsidian]

Just got back from a 1hr timeout, I drive a 2012 silverado

[scarlet remnant]

ARE YOU ACTUALLY KIDDING ME THAT PEOPLE CAN THIRD PARTY YOU WHILE FIGHTING THE COMPILER???? 😭

[rough obsidian]

Oh, lovely, because I wanted to worry about that when I fight a compiler at some point in the future

[scarlet remnant]

We had a generational run today with friends. Got to him on our first try when we got access. Almost got it down. 2 minutes left, a team came just to mess us over cause they sure as well were not doing it lol.

[daring folio]

TIL i should bring more claymores

[scarlet remnant]

Actually a top tier idea to just mine the hell out of the entry

[covert hamlet]

is this real im about to actually uninstall

[abstract coyote]

servers on fire?

[scarlet remnant]

Well, it literally just happened to me lol.

[covert hamlet]

wow

[rough obsidian]

I would assume they have to have their own access, right?

[daring folio]

not too many people are privy to this anti-bubble strat just yet, for some reason

[scarlet remnant]

I kind of expected the room to not be accessible/exitable until you actually beat it.

[rough obsidian]

the claymore from outside?

[scarlet remnant]

But eh, it is what it is. I never imagine to even get to it.

[graceful crow]

e

[sand radish]

I think it makes sense that it doesn’t, as that leaves the option of teaming up for the Compiler open.

[steep solstice]

rook+outpost=peak

[icy tide]

wow thermals make this game so fun and fair when every outside map is 24/7 fog

truly thrilling

[terse peak]

their effective range has been decreased quite a bit tho

[daring folio]

signal jammer is your best friend now

[icy tide]

and they're still op lmao

[dense flare]

I thought the little air seal elevator door thing was only 1 way so once you get in the compiler room nobody can go in but if you go back they can be in the prefight stockpile room

[jovial bay]

Any idea what causes salvage to become scrap like these Tarax Seeds? I know about trace on equipment but not this https://i.imgur.com/0n5Hdln.png

[icy tide]

this game would have been so dope as a looter shooter lol feelsbad

[mild mountain]

a shame it’s pretty dope as an extraction shooter I guess.

[icy tide]

i mean yeah but all extraction shooters are the same they get boring after the first few wipes. they would have done insane numbers making this a looter shooter instead imo

[grave talon]

I think specifically Bungie making another looter shooter would have been a huge mistake. Would have turned away just about everyone frustrated with Destiny (even more so)

[mild mountain]

I think I’ll enjoy the seasonal loop especially with them ideally bringing in new content with each respective season. there’s lots to do with maps/weapons/lore.

I mean we’re exploring a whole planet and effectively a planet sized ship.

[icy tide]

i disagree basically the entire destiny community wants d3. If they would have released a brand new looter shooter IP they would have ate that shit up

[jovial bay]

I feel like all it needs is more activities. Keep the extraction bit as the main loop but it needs some other stuff as an outlet

[random gale]

Yeah I dont want a new destiny game at this point
They fucked it up beyond return
Id rather have alternate media for the destiny IP and a new IP for a looter shooter or campaign/arcade shooter

[jovial bay]

Add some endgame PvE missions for example

[icy tide]

it should have been a looter shooter as its main content with the extraction shit as a side thing for fun

[rugged saffron]

It was like 10 minutes, hadn't even done a run KLSDJFDAJFK

[mild mountain]

disagree. part of what makes the game so fun is the intensity you can experience while playing. making it a looter shooter takes away so much of that intensity.

[copper anchor]

Saw a post of Bungie saying marathon will have years to come, I’m happy, but I hope they can hold that promise

[mild mountain]

I like looter shooters fine too but this game gets your blood FLOWING whenever you get some really sick gear off a player or wherever else

[icy tide]

at this point id rather never bring a kit in beacuse whats the point when ur always getting matched with free kits when you fill. Also unless you're bringing a thermal sniper and a WSTR you're pretty much losing 80% of the time. It just feels pointless and stupid in terms of extraction shooter

[rugged saffron]

I used a signal jammer on Dire Marsh and got beamed by some people in a standoff where they were definitely obscured from my vision by fog. Not sure why I wasn't obscured from their vision by fog + signal jammer to counter thermals.

Happened a day or 2 ago and I'm still confused about why.

[icy tide]

Half the time you hardly have any time to react lol

[copper anchor]

I had that feeling today, killed someone who was about to exfill

[rugged saffron]

Play solos or ranked or Cryo if this bothers you

[copper anchor]

Grabbed all his shit and left

[random gale]

Been kicking ass with a stryder so 🤷‍♂️

[icy tide]

cryo and solo are no different ranked surely isnt any different. in silver 3 thermal snipers in the meta or you lose. Have you not been playing?

[mild mountain]

yeah I don’t ever fill with randoms. not risking my gear against other teams when I’ve got potential potatoes as my teammates.

as popular as thermals are you need to stockpile signal jammers. literally the best consumable in the game for PVP.

[icy tide]

idk all in all the game is just meh to me its another extraction shooter that people will stop playing after the first few wipes

[random gale]

ok

[mild mountain]

maybe you just don’t enjoy extraction shooters then. genre just might not be for you.

[icy tide]

its not casual enough to hold players like Arc Raiders and unfortunately that will be marathons downfall unless they add some good content continuously

[copper anchor]

Funny because to me it was the opposite I had zero interest in extraction shooters and ended up loving it with Marathon, I just love collecting shit like a total hoarder

[mild mountain]

the PvP is enough to keep me coming back. Ive even enjoyed the little shit like upgrading my factions lol.

[mild mountain]

I’d always had an interest but had never played one. just thought I’d prefer watching them from a distance. This game has got me by the balls though

[copper anchor]

Completing faction quests is so satisfying specially in a good run

[icy tide]

faction upgrading might genuinely be the worst part about this game lol

[glad mirage]

I appreciate all of the Prophets of Marathon's Downfall who are able to share their time with the Marathon community every chance they get. I'm happy y'all have so much free time.

[mild mountain]

why? it’s tedious but it just makes it way easier to gear back up.

plus max factions give great rewards. looking at you sneak bag, thanks cyberacme.

[jovial bay]

What could make or break it for me in the long-term is if they end up handling the story in the same way they did with Destiny seasons. If new wipes make it so that previous story is no longer available then it's gonna be impenetrable for new and returning players again

[icy tide]

but yeah i agree extraction shooters arent my thing. unfortunately theres nothing good to play at this point in time so i just play this to play something. Arc was fun for a min but got super boring beacuse the devs suck. Hopefully something good comes out soon. And the resources you need for faction upgrades is just ridiculous. shit should be halved imo

its frustrating cause i was so hyped for this game i thought i would love it

[mild mountain]

it gets really easy to get the salvage once you find materialist + gear.

[icy tide]

ive been sitting in the main building in souther relay solos just typing i heard someone coming and waited and beamed them in like .2 seconds. he had no chance to even fight back. thats one thing that is so lame about extraction shooters. you're rewarded for just ratting

[jovial bay]

Materialist+ should be more reliably attainable tbh, I have 9 stocked up after tons of playtime and losing any of that would be a major setback

[mild mountain]

I used to think it was pretty rare but now I think I was just overlooking it.

[verbal pulsar]

You might need to either take a break from gaming or try to find a way to make your own fun, brother.

[turbid plover]

Two more vaults to go guys I'm on a roll today

[jovial bay]

Nah I check every materialist thing I find

[mild mountain]

I also think that there’s a fine line to ride with making things super easily attainable and keeping some things rare.

[verbal pulsar]

The rewards to hunt the boss are character dependent, not run dependent right?

[mild mountain]

specific guns and blue mods eventually being purchasable? that’s fine. gear that just expedites finding salvage should probably stay rare just for the power creep.

[turbid plover]

Yeah so realistically you'd need to kill compiler 6 times at least lmao

[fading zinc]

You just have to exfil with a teammate carrying each of the 6 subroutines (not on the same run)

[turbid plover]

Oh you mean subroutines

[verbal pulsar]

I did mean the subroutines, but now I'm curious of what you meant

[turbid plover]

I meant the cryo skins

Guys I'm running with ain't never seen vault 6 key so I guess we'll be suffering trying to get that soon

[fading zinc]

I need to follow your lead and go do lockdowns

Outpost and wardens hate me recently, haven't gotten a cryo key in days

My last warden had 3 blues and a bunch of meds 😭

[verbal pulsar]

I have barely had time to play recently. I need to go look at these skins now-

[mild mountain]

I don’t kill Wardens enough but it’s also just harder in solos. especially when I’m having to make sure I’m not getting ratted on.

[daring folio]

Vandal and Destroyer definitely got the best Cryo skins. I'm so jealous as a Recon main

[fading zinc]

I do them in solo, but yeah it's always rolling the rat dice

[terse peak]

bro...this run...I killed a guy(and couldn't loot him, #📽️run-clips message ) and then never heard any movement or gunshots for the rest of the run and I was super scared since nobody was taking any exfils or master keys, I decided to play it safe and loot some of the armories, took the guarded exfil with 4 mins left and turns out I was the only one left...

[mild mountain]

I just now learned that the game tells you when someone’s fighting a warden. pops up a little message in the top left corner lol.

[fading zinc]

It also tells you when they kill it which is the bigger issue

[mild mountain]

now I didn’t know that.

[potent current]

is the arsenal near the panopticon

[fading zinc]

In solo people do wardens so rarely that in my experience you don't often get camped unless you do it early since people just assume it was someone walking through the poi that accidentally pulled aggro

[exotic wing]

I'm the opposite, I think Recon's looks incredible.

[fading zinc]

But the moment it dies if people are nearby they'll want a piece

[random gale]

Supply drops should take less than 3 minutes to drop considering they make a loud ass alarm and a beam that can be seen everywhere on the map and can hurt you when they land

[terse peak]

also when doing annomaly you're pinged on everyone's view while carrying the anomalous stuff

[mild mountain]

yeah seems best to wait until later in raids when everyone’s fucked off.

[terse peak]

tbh supply drops are such a huge risk for how mid their rewards are

[fading zinc]

I usually just either loot or go afk until 10-12 minutes left

[mild mountain]

I’d like to find a consistent stack to play with at some point. have a hard time getting my usual crew on the game.

[fading zinc]

Yeah everyone I know is either used to pve only arc raiders or destiny, none of them want to get into a hardcore pvp game

Which I wouldn't mind if the game were fully soloable, but trying to do vaults with randoms doesn't sound particularly fun

[mild mountain]

my boys have been on Valheim of all things (great game don’t get me wrong) and getting them on anything else is like pulling teeth.

[frail tiger]

i am very anti-pve mode but i think bungie should explore something to appease those players for this game at this point. idk

def want this to be a game that succeeds for them, financially

[fading zinc]

Idk, I won't pretend to know the game market well enough to know whether that would increase or decrease their market appeal

[exotic wing]

I got a gold mod from a supply drop the other night lol. They are there so you can activate them, leave, and come back later or use as a trap.

[frail tiger]

well we can look at tarkov as an example

[fading zinc]

A not insignificant portion of the people here are here specifically because it's so pvp focused

[frail tiger]

it brought a lot of players but those players never do pvp. so it helped the company but its on its own island

[mild mountain]

I don’t think we currently need to talk about what bungie needs or doesn’t need to do to get current players in when the game is as well reviewed as it is.

I think their best course of action is to remain patient and continue to let word of mouth spread.

[daring folio]

it's just the grey bits on her torso that are throwing me for a loop. and the blue boots reminding me of nike prestos for some reasons lol

[verbal pulsar]

Vandal my beloved mobility queen

[exotic wing]

I think they need to add a single player mode with simplified pieces to Chess, personally. It is a very difficult and very competitive game but I have always wanted to be involved in its deep history.

[mild mountain]

wouldn’t be shocked to see a new peak of players with the first wipe.

[fading zinc]

Using tarkov as an example is a bit difficult. It's like using Genshin to talk about gachas, it's from so early in the genre that things it did might not work now that there's competition

[frail tiger]

that pretty much never happens in extraction shooters ngl

[verbal pulsar]

Especially if they do their campaigns right and market the game

[frail tiger]

there can be a slow burn upwards if the game remains good for a long time but i wouldnt expect to see a sudden jump in pop anytime soon

[mild mountain]

I wouldn’t know enough admittedly but the people who have sunk time into the game love the game. and are probably telling their friends they love the game.

so maybe people think now is an awkward time to jump in because they might be afraid they’ll be behind. just spitballing here.

[frail tiger]

yeah new seasons are their best time to do a marketing push and try to capture more players. youre not wrong

[brave sinew]

So how do you go about playing with a group? you just jump into it? Are you expected to have a certain level of gear or play a certain shell?

[frail tiger]

i like the universe a lot so im going to be playing marathon for a long time even if the pop drops

[mild mountain]

yeah me too. I haven’t had this much fun on a shooter in a long long time.

[spring current]

chicken

[mild mountain]

probably since peak warzone in COVID?

idk I like it a lot.

[icy tide]

nah this game is trash lmao

[frail tiger]

its my favorite shooter ive played since the cycle frontier

cycle did some things better but i like marathon more overall

[icy tide]

solos is shit fill is shit. unless you have a squad to play this this game is shit. the player peak you see now is the most this game will ever see. it wont get bigger. If they made a looter shooter itd be a diff story. this game sucks and im out 🙂

[mild mountain]

never played that one. hear about it here and there.

[mild mountain]

so long!

[frail tiger]

see you in cryo archives later lmao

[atomic mica]

pls revert the server changes, i rather wait 10m on queue than queuing on 150ms cryo wearing bis

[frail tiger]

ouch

theres a game i play where im forced to play at 70ms or so. its so trash. I cant imagine 150

[tepid quarry]

marathon steam point shop cosmetics when?

[dreamy iris]

never seen a bigger skill issue in my life

[brave sinew]

What is eccentric salvage?

[mild mountain]

yellow salvage? I think.

[brave sinew]

I've never seen a yellow salvage item and this quest wants me to find 3 of it

[brisk peak]

yeah this quest is crazy ahaha

[brave sinew]

I guess im done with nucal rep then

[proper lark]

I can't post the picture of the chart here, but eccentric salvage is ONLY the (blue) UESC Obedience Matrix and the (purple) Shell ID

[brave sinew]

Can't get most of the upgrades from them anyway because it requires stuff you only find in pinwheel and cryo

[boreal apex]

no no no the eccentric items are just specifc tags for items just check the description of salvage items and itll tell ya

[proper lark]

both of which drop poorly. apparently from "UESC forces, Supply drops and Priority Hostiles'

so go shoot some bots.

[terse peak]

https://preview.redd.it/you-dont-have-to-salvage-what-they-tell-ya-to-v0-984v8larwirg1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=e6364869aec1e951df7e2911afb375af5f623b9b

[mild mountain]

my mistake then. thanks for the correction.

[proper lark]

Cheers. I made that. 🙂

[mild mountain]

so shell IDs have a chance from dropping off commanders too?

[terse peak]

super good resource mate ! Highly appreciated! Saved me a shitton on doing dcon contracts today after I stumbled upon it last night! 👌

[proper lark]

dont know. it says 'priority hostiles' so presumably bosses

[dreamy iris]

What are the exact values when you said "Higher rarity yeilds more"? Does it go up by 1 per rarity?

[mild mountain]

this would make sense. need to farm them up for the purple key templates.

[proper lark]

I even used it myself on a mission just now for Arachne. needed resing salvage... checks chart for unstable thing... WIN

[sly jetty]

I’ve had better success in Cryo than I have Dire Marsh today. That place is an absolute blood bath

[proper lark]

and the blue thing for the blue keys

[terse peak]

no, green salvage counts as 2, blue as 4, purple as 8 I think

[mild mountain]

yep. I have a much easier time finding those.

[proper lark]

but also don't waste blues you find on salvage contracts that wants you to DCON burn them. save those and just drop greys and greens(maybe)

[mild mountain]

oh the chart you’ve made is actually wonderful thanks for that.

[terse peak]

For example the traxus contract that asks you to exfil the 2 green rods from maintenance, if you find a single blue rod it counts the mission as completed and you can exfil

[mild mountain]

yeah but may as well just find unstable gunmetal instead to actually keep the blue salvage.

[proper lark]

I'm quite amused that for everything aside from plant, the blue version is just the green one with a fancier name and blue bg.

[terse peak]

I don't think the traxus priority contract counts it that way because it specifically asks you to exfil with enhanced rods

[mild mountain]

oh that’s different then.

[proper lark]

yeah, the priority ones are particular. it's the general pool of 'decon/exfil' contracts where this chart is handy. ppl do those just to get more rep in one faction specifically

[thin sapphire]

deadlocker spotted

[boreal apex]

such a goated game

[thin sapphire]

the only two games i play right now consistently

[boreal apex]

very different styles of games, i would say i enjoy both equally, much more marathon obsessed rn

[brave charm]

I was instantly drawn into deadlock when I gave it a second chance a week or two ago

[zenith grove]

I love the Marathon cinematics! https://youtube.com/shorts/Purhmic_Z1I?feature=share They are the BEST! Is it just me or best cinematics of a game EVER? Marathon deserves an award

[thin sapphire]

yeah we need a series bro

[zenith grove]

Yesssssssss

[thin sapphire]

only sci fi shit ive liked since like star trek

[boreal apex]

valve just knows ball lmao, its the first time i was having actual fun in a moba without playing w/ friends (looking at the hell that is league)

[thin sapphire]

and its literally marathon and the og is insane . we need more destroyer security officer lore

[brave sinew]

I'm kind of confused about cryo archive. So do you have to find keys outside cryo, from other maps, in order to enter it?

[mild mountain]

need a battleroid skin for destroyer, better yet.

[mild mountain]

no you can enter it. those are just for vaults.

[thin sapphire]

also its crazy seeing so many people into deadlock i remember the first surge of players in 2024 i came in on. game felt so different this was before mirage was added and right as shiv was added

[brave sinew]

The vaults are just loot rooms?

[mild mountain]

very very good loot rooms that guarantee one of the unique guns yeah.

[thin sapphire]

yeah vaults are key rooms with extra steps, the keys can be found anywhere a key can be found but people farm wardens for those keys

i wouldnt go into cryo with a key until you are comfortable or have a navigation carry

[brave sinew]

I don't think I've seen a cryo key anyway.

[thin sapphire]

i just dont even give a single shit about the loot i care about the lore and why that compiler is still there

i just want lore man

[brave sinew]

I want to experience everything the game has to offer but I guess I really don't understand gear progression. I imagine even the best players still die and lose all their stuff 50% of the time. So... then what, take 10 hours to farm up purple stuff and then die and lose it in 10 seconds?

[mild mountain]

There seems to be a divergence in timelines? but I’m not an expert. if things lined up accordingly Durandal shouldn’t still be on the Marathon right? but it’s kind of being implied that he is…?

but I also know next to nothing except for the most basic lore details.

[terse peak]

according to some codex entries it's kind of implied that the compiler's been there since before tciv

FYI for anyone getting FOMO about cryo archive and the compiler fight:
the vault chips go into codex entries which won't be affected by the wipes, as long as you collect all of them you'll be able to attempt vault 7 with just the dna key thing

[covert hamlet]

I wonder how many people have actually fought the compiler....

[vital garden]

Ehmmmm bungie devs, can we nerf the knife ?? thx

[turbid plover]

nah 😶

[verbal pulsar]

That's.. a great point and kinda feels genius

[turbid plover]

I was wondering where tf they went

[rough obsidian]

Idea for everyone who runs duos in cryo with crew fill: USE YOUR FUCKING MICS

[turbid plover]

Anyway I lost my only vault 3 key and I still need vault 6 key, probably no compiler

[vital garden]

Yep!

[terse peak]

can probably look on lfg for people?

[cosmic fjord]

when i run a superior key template does the map i bring it to effect what map the key is gonna go to after i get out?

[turbid plover]

I don't lfg I pouch good fills and run with them lol

look at me making friends and shit

[daring folio]

Adopting strays is the way

[verbal pulsar]

Old halo had us making friends. Look at Bungie do it again

[fervent oak]

Marathon>Halo

[daring folio]

Oh cool, devs re-did LFG section

[paper trout]

is there a new one not locked ?

[verbal pulsar]

That isn't the point 🗿 Arachne agents upon ye

[rugged saffron]

Just had a match where me and my friend went into trios as a duo in Outpost. I assassin smoked the entire hallway and ran at the enemies with a knife. One of them fell out the bottom and we won the 2v1 and go the last guy when he came back.

All of pinwheel was ours

[terse peak]

oh nice they made individual chat channels

[rugged saffron]

Well said

[paper trout]

ye those are locked for me for some reasons

[fervent oak]

John Marathon>John117

Pfhor>Covenant

[verbal pulsar]

Wait is that the origination of johnX

[terse peak]

id:customize check runner role

[daring folio]

yeah i have can type in them

[wild marsh]

Never once in my life been the guy that’s like “yo please add more for solos” since I’ve always had friends but with a game like this you gotta pray you have 2 homeboys into this niche of a game

[fervent oak]

Jjaro>Forerunners

[daring folio]

they redid the section so it's not threads anymore. there are individual text channels for each map and an any zone channel

[random gale]

the circuit breaker might need more time between charge stages LMAO this thing is busted

[verbal pulsar]

Are you an ancient gamer, moski? Are you from classic marathon times? That's honestly be pretty sick if some older gamers showed up just for the revive

[daring folio]

i heard people saying it plays like Acrius from D2 lol

[random gale]

nah it SNIPES

[wild marsh]

Let’s be so real if they made the same kind of game combat evolved was for marathon that would have been bungies big break. I have to say marathon is genuinely a very intriguing world to use

[fierce mortar]

Bro I need PvE only big dog,

[terse peak]

EvP, imagine if they added cascade on dire marsh and lowest UESC enemy type is grenadier commander 🤌

[brave sinew]

I feel really behind. I'm still intimidated by Dire Marsh, but I have to figure out Outpost and then Cryo still. Probably going to be 3 new maps out by the time I feel like attempting Cryo.

[terse peak]

don't feel intimidated, just go with random fill a few times, everyone is more or less invested due to 5k gear ante

as for outpost...just rook it a few times

[crystal olive]

I maxed out the season pass and have 140/140 silk. Is there nothing more to spend silk on? is all future silk I get just wasted?

[terse peak]

it carries over to be used on future bps and I believe they said they're working on adding more value to it

[worthy wolf]

whats the best min max way to hit 5k for cryo with the lowest money cost?

[terse peak]

#dev-updates message

[signal bough]

shotgun's like 2.4k on its own

[buoyant mountain]

got my first hackusation because i just played that well 💪 (i didnt exfill successfully that run either)

[sand radish]

Bruh if you’re not coming in Cryo with a decent kit just don’t 🤷‍♂️

[ashen frigate]

this happened to me just now

[signal bough]

oh isn't that something with stack size

[signal bough]

are you trying to buy a 4 stack of nades direct to inventory

[ashen frigate]

9

[sonic blade]

happened to my friend yesterday

they just vanish into thin air btw

[signal bough]

yeah it's something about the game trying to shove everything of what you just bought direct to inventory

buy to vault should work iirc? i remember this being mentioned a few days back in a channel

[chilly star]

aight I need to be able to report people for cheating. it is actually insane the amount of walls ive played against in the last day on cryo

[terse peak]

go to recent players after your run

the player should show up in there and you can right click them to report for cheating

[chilly star]

thank you 🙏

[thin sapphire]

lol wait a second

somebody said they got a hackusation and then someone says they need to report a hacker.... hmmm....

[signal bough]

https://help.marathonthegame.com/hc/en-us/articles/47024359626644-Report-Suspected-Cheating-and-Poor-Behavior there's also this

[brave sinew]

Rook isn't really learning the map though. I've seen a few videos. You have to collect keycards to open doors and stuff. I need to do that part too

[chilly star]

maximum agility across the whole map invis no noise in a vent, no recon on their team, and homie starts yapping in all chat as he walks up bragging about knowing where I am and advertising his hack website lmfao

[thin sapphire]

oh fuck

[terse peak]

you can tho? like just ignore other people and go around looking at the keycard locations etc.

loot airfield for weapons lockers and then exfil

[chilly star]

yeah im honestly about to just 'free kit' into cryo only with a backpack full of green attachments lol

[terse peak]

if someone's opened pinwheel already you can go in through the vents and try to sneak around as well to understand the layout or even try the conveyance elevator to see if maybe someone's popped it open

[silk sable]

Just got weasels

They call me the unmuted

[cosmic fjord]

if i use a key template will the map im on affect what key it turns into

[worthy wolf]

whats the best min max way to hit 5k for cryo with the lowest money cost?

[signal bough]

put on the shotgun

[gleaming socket]

Same

[sonic blade]

from what i can tell no, ive done probably 15 and havent seen a pattern

[quasi fern]

Does anyone know if the anomylous matter event is bugged? I see it under the ground a bunch but there are no tunnels near by? Is this intended, am I just doing something wrong?

[lunar juniper]

quest bug, not related to the actual anomaly event

[glad mirage]

I went hunting for secret tunnels because of this 😄

creeping around in solos looking for grates and stairs

[turbid plover]

did you miss the part that says no self promo

[turbid plover]

two shotguns 👍

[split thunder]

dude I have the same question I think it's bugged though

[random gale]

No failed runs today 🔥

[slender ocean]

hey guys what is triages restoration field?
im assuming its the radius of the shareware drone

[turbid plover]

wtf is restoration field

is it a triage core

[slender ocean]

triage core

[signal bough]

i think that's an ability in the api that doesn't actually exist anymore

[turbid plover]

yeah I don't think it's real

[signal bough]

do you have it on something in game?

[slender ocean]

might be a cut/planned feature

[civic charm]

what API? 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 v

There is no Marathon in Bungie.net API. Anything out there is 100% community sourced rn

[turbid plover]

real, the runners yearn for the api

[slender ocean]

im on marathondb's website, so its what im thinking? but like 4 of em mention restoration field

[turbid plover]

all the db websites are manually sourced (or potentially datamined from old builds)

[hot trail]

cryo archive should be lower loadout value change my mind

[mild mountain]

Nanomachines, son.

[turbid plover]

You're entitled to your opinion I'm not gonna try to change your mind

[civic charm]

I should be able to freekit crewfill cryo

[turbid plover]

I think it should be 15k

[hot trail]

where is my free cryo kit bungo

[terse peak]

wait wtf is the dude holding the "Strange Sermon" Strauss?

[turbid plover]

true

[random gale]

You can't load into cryo without a circuit breaker or zeus rg 🗣️ 🔥

[terse peak]

I think it should have multiple entry tiers tbh

[lunar juniper]

who needs queue times

[turbid plover]

I will load in with 12 v11's and you can't stop me

[lunar juniper]

lemme wait 10 min cuz u cant scrounge a blue kit for cryo

[random gale]

3000? Woe unstable gel be upon ye

[lunar juniper]

it would never happen anyway, lower entry for cryo would have to be balanced by lower loot, making it not even better than marsh or outpost anyway

[slender ocean]

allow me to suggest an idea for cryo
Broke cryo (FREE KIT ONLY; NOTHING TO LOOSE; ALL TO GAIN; 3 TRIES)
Normal cryo (5k)
Baller Cryo (10k)
also
Rooks queuing into ANY match have a 1/10 mil chance of getting into a cryo archive raid with ALL ROOKS
Teams queueing into Cryo have a 1/10 mill chance to get into that rook lobby

What do yall think of that

[turbid plover]

I think they should replace compiler with a rook

[terse peak]

the loot in cryo is way too good to allow a broke tier and 5k ante is too easy anyway

[wet pier]

queuing as rook and randomly entering cryo would be hilarioud

[terse peak]

and the flying balls with medidrones with claymores

[slender ocean]

why only 3 tries

[median latch]

how do i get access to LFG?

[turbid plover]

I will make 60k in those 3 tries

[slender ocean]

i lowkey kinda want them to add that; just cause the chaos would be insane

[turbid plover]

id:browse

[slender ocean]

the best part is that everyone will try to wipe each other cause EVERYONE at the start has equal footing

[random gale]

if you enter cryo as rook you get a compromised compiler gun with an inventory full of compromised mags

[wet pier]

genuinely doubt its a good idea but its so funny it circles around to being good again

[turbid plover]

That's like, normal cryo

[median latch]

i can get to the lfg thread but i dont have permission to post

[slender ocean]

Coorect, but it removes the insane levels of grenade spams

[slender ocean]

those are the best ideas

[turbid plover]

We have new channels scroll down further

Holy shit discord let me link a category

[slender ocean]

However, They NEED to add a 1/10 mil chance to queue into cryo as a rook

[terse peak]

honestly after the first room in cryo half my inventory was grenade just from looting

[median latch]

ooooooooohhh thank you sorry im a lil dumb sometimes i appreciate the help!

[turbid plover]

ofc it doesn't why would copying category ID work

[slender ocean]

if free kit cryo were to be a thing itd have to be changed like
-less loot (Purple should be the best item found)
-Complier lockdown (no easy farming)
-Vault lock down (no easy farming)

[turbid plover]

I think cryo is good as is right now, my only issue is getting vault keys

[stray flicker]

yo does anyone know how to get obs to capture in game chat when streaming?

[slender ocean]

I agree cryo is good rn

[turbid plover]

Fucking vault 6 key is not real I swear to god

[random gale]

i have found 1 key out in the wild 😔

[slender ocean]

gotta pay big bungie to give u a keyu

[mild mountain]

like prox chat?

[stray flicker]

yes
