No one's around

I got paragon removed twice I think

but first time was because I was suprized by the blue shift

so I got myself speed banned/muted to have it removed

second time was because I said something super mean

Smh

one month in the guac

balmy mason

I mean what did he do

round fable
# balmy mason I mean what did he do

he found an oob to get into the compiler loot room and killed some random team that just got their first compiler run and then posted it on twitter

balmy mason
#

Oh

#

1 month seems too kind

runic yarrow
#

Can they afford to be banning players ?

fringe surge
#

🤔

runic yarrow
#

Just a silly

round fable
#

basically said that in the past they haven't punished people for exploits but since marathon is an extraction shooter that is a serious offense and will be punished heavily moving forward

lavish forge
#

Pve only mode mhmmm

#

Dunno why but okay

zenith blaze
empty estuary
#

Why does he look so rotund here

#

And hes so jolly

zenith blaze
# lavish forge Pve only mode mhmmm

tbf a lot of early feedback was that a lot of people wished that it had a pve mode/dedicated story mode of some kind, i mean as long as it helps bring in people then im not gonna sweat over it too much

empty estuary
#

Junie tell oreo i love him

zenith blaze
empty estuary
#

Holy cow

#

See here he looks normal

#

Bro just gains mass when hes zenned out

wanton wasp
#

The Lego fortnite mode is pretty alright ngl

wanton wasp
lavish forge
#

Wanting a pve only mode in a pvevp extraction game sure is something

#

And it certainly reinforces the argument that the average player is fucking dogshit

wanton wasp
#

Arc raiders has done so much damage genuinely

lavish forge
#

But if it means Marathon lives and the other game stays dead I’ll be fine w it

wanton wasp
#

I guess but I think it'll just split that player base and increase the queue times even longer

lavish forge
#

I think if Bungie does it the right way

wanton wasp
#

If it has more involved story elements sure

#

But if it is just going around the map killing uesc and doing a mechanic here and there

#

I swear

#

And eventually pfhor

#

But still

lavish forge
#

If the pve-only mode only gives you a certain amount of loot that isn’t very good, and the PvP-lite a little bit more desirable weapons then it might just work

wanton wasp
#

Fighting uesc for 20 minutes cannot be that fun

lavish forge
#

I hope the pve mode will look a bit more like HD2 then

#

Just pure chaos and a fuck ton of enemies and traps and bullshit thrown at you

ashen cipher
lavish forge
#

D2 is primarily a pve game

#

Marathon isn’t

wanton wasp
ashen cipher
#

True i talked poop

#

my bad

wanton wasp
#

Marathon uesc enemies are catered towards being annoying and making noise

#

Destiny enemies are meant to be shot at

empty estuary
#

I think im gonna get a sim wheel for FH6

#

Ill play the game more before i decide but im loving it

zenith blaze
#

bungee cord wheels suck

zenith blaze
#

also get euro/american truck simulator, stream to me your chaos

round fable
empty estuary
#

Im probably gonna stick with a logitech wheel since its pretty widely supported for FH games

#

And those all got force feedback

wanton wasp
round fable
#

im hopeful it wont become a real thing because its experimental

empty estuary
#

Id maybe save a bit more for a fancier wheel but since its not a true sim racer the support isnt as strong on higher end wheels

wanton wasp
round fable
#

maybe they can settle somewhere in the middle with the "pvp lite" mode if they HAVE to do something for casuals

#

but i dont know how they can even do that

wanton wasp
#

That's what it probably is, reduced teams if I had to guess

#

But then why would you run normal mode if you can just load into a match with like 3 teams total

round fable
zenith blaze
empty estuary
#

Yeah thats the one im leaning towards

round fable
#

but also i kinda doubt that it's actually less players

zenith blaze
#

i miss my steering wheel, but it also sucked

#

i do not regret refunding it

round fable
#

the dynamic of the game has changed a lot over the course of the season

wanton wasp
empty estuary
#

Im sad theres not an xbox variant of the g29 but playstation buttons are fine

wanton wasp
#

70 percent was slop

runic yarrow

They get the krab

balmy mason

PvE mode for Marton is a W for me

hidden pulsar

Yeah but the right gif has him correcting “0 days since nonsense” to “0 days since nonsense” lmao

wanton wasp
balmy mason

So what

wanton wasp

I don't get it

hidden pulsar
#

What

round fable
#

and theres like

#

a couple bosses i guess

wanton wasp
#

I mean you have a strike boss

empty estuary
#

I mean gray zone warfare is pretty fun despite being a pve focused extrac shooter

#

We just gotta see how they go about it

round fable
#

hey chat remember in the first alpha where instead of wardens and lockdowns it was one event and it was a boss that spawned in some random spot and had a lockdown field dome

wanton wasp

I didn't play alpha

cant wait to take the salt wages into pve and hold the trigger down for the whole match!

wanton wasp

I think we are getting pfhor units next season

But still

round fable
zenith blaze
wanton wasp
#

Saw a post on them saying something

round fable
#

they said something about more alien enemies but it sounded like it was not in season 2

wanton wasp
#

Could be that

#

I hope it's season 2

round fable
#

maybe there's something in night marsh

#

i really wanna see what night marsh is about

wanton wasp
#

Oh boy I can't wait for more thermals that are only effective for like 50 metres

#

They should buff thermals as you can buy signal jammers

round fable
#

ive been playing way too much recon since the buff and ive barely seen anyone signal jam outside cryo

wanton wasp
#

COS they stupid and are bad

round fable
#

the worst player you know will load into cryo crew fill with some bullshit loadout, play with audio muted, get bodied immediately and then go on twitter to beg for a pve mode

lavish forge
#

Since Sony and Bungie stated that they want to continue building marathon I might just finally buy it

round fable
#

crew fill cryo is certainly an experience

wanton wasp
#

I met the guys who I did compiler with from it

round fable
#

i have managed to exfil twice with crew fills somehow

wanton wasp
#

I think they got bored tho, didn't see em for a bit

#

Also ranked is fucking terrible

round fable
#

but the difference between fills and actual squads is crazy

wanton wasp
#

You just get put into Asian servers and get blatant cheaters

round fable
#

i havent really played ranked much

balmy mason
#

That's kinda discriminating

round fable
#

the idea is cool but i dont really care

balmy mason
#

"Oh there's (I believe) blatant cheater in this queue. Must be Asian."

wanton wasp
#

Nah you get can tell if you aren't in your servers from the red ring, and all the names would be Chinese lettering

#

Like I'm not saying Asian's are all cheaters, I'm saying that there is a cheating problem in ranked

round fable
wanton wasp
#

And it's blatant

empty estuary
wanton wasp
#

Like these guys just know where everyone is and insta beams

empty estuary
#

CoD streamers use to do it with vpns to get more appealing content

round fable
wanton wasp
#

Each time we would get into yank servers, we would wipe those dogs clean

#

Even if they have advantage

wanton wasp
wanton wasp
#

Also these fucks have previous bans on record

#

@balmy mason

#

So before you point the finger

balmy mason
#

I just point out the vibe I get in that comment

wanton wasp
#

I get it but my aunt is literally Chinese

#

Not to play the my X is X card

#

But this applies here

#

But as I said, they'd have a private profile most of the time with a previous vac ban on record

What's the tea

that is not a runner. 👀

Quoting Marathon (@MarathonTheGame)

Marathon’s game director @Ziegler_Dev reflects on the journey so far and the weird and wild path ahead. Here’s the gist of it:
︀︀
︀︀🔹With the first season of Marathon we’ve created a strong core community.
︀︀
︀︀🔹We're embarking on a multi-season journey built around growing from the seed of this strong community.
︀︀
︀︀🔹We’re looking to solve some pain points for players:
︀︀* Making the game less grindy, more rewarding
︀︀* Making improvements to things like the UI/UX, matchmaking, end game meta, playing as solos/duos, etc.
︀︀* Smoothing out onboarding
︀︀
︀︀🔹We’re also going to build out more of the core game:
︀︀* Adding new fun and mind-bending content: new and updated zones, Runner shells, new combatants, weapons, loot, and more
︀︀* Building systems to make progressing more interesting
︀︀
︀︀🔹We want to build more surv…

ok if this is a zombie colonist like people think then maybe the pve mode isnt that bad

#

cod zombies in marathon CATGRIN

lavish forge
#

If they do something like hd2 where they spawn a shit ton of enemies then I’m sure people will like it

#

If it’s just an empty map with some AI here n there it’s probably doomed to fail

balmy mason
#

They could play into the stealthy narrative

#

Like GTFO

#

The more sound you make, the more trouble you invite

wanton wasp

Zombies/infected would be dope

lavish forge
#

Damn marathon is only 28gb

and sentinel looks bulkier than that

Also remind me marathon does have loot wipes right

june 2

#

Cool

wanton wasp
#

Forced wipes ever season

lavish forge
#

That’s good

#

I bought the game

round fable
#

you get some sponsored kits based on your previous season level to get you started but other than that everything is wiped

Like just now

runic yarrow
round fable
lavish forge
#

Yeah ik about the intro quest

runic yarrow
#

Moving at the end of the month

#

I hate moving so much

balmy mason
#

I still haven't finished all the faction quests

#

Especially SekGen

wanton wasp
#

Same

balmy mason
#

I wonder if I will continue where I left off

wanton wasp
#

Nah new quests I think

balmy mason
#

That would suck

#

FOMO

wanton wasp
#

Oh no I don't get to put X item into a thing in dire march

balmy mason
#

Faction quests are the story of the game

wanton wasp
#

I mean I'm not sure but they said some quests are being randomised

#

Or changed

#

Don't remember

round fable
#

most of the lore comes from good ol fashioned grabbing a collectible 5 times

balmy mason
#

Before I stopped playing the quest I was on was Traxus'

#

Gotta call an airdrop and extract it

round fable
#

the priority quests seem really hard when you start and then they get way easier when you have a bit of loot and awareness

wanton wasp
round fable
#

the find 2 rods in maintenance and exfil one

#

doing all the early quests on day 1 with everyone trying to do the same was certainly something

balmy mason
#

Tick house Perimeter

round fable
#

unless night marsh is that big

#

also they probably don't want to spend too many resources on cryo level content because it's been a season and most the playerbase doesn't know how to play cryo yet

mental brook
#

Safe to say I don't like anything to do with moving/renovating

balmy mason
#

Hmmm now that I think about it, isn't GTFO essentially an objective-based PvE extraction shooter?

runic yarrow
signal wren
balmy mason
#

You gotta clear objective and call in extraction

signal wren
#

You also do objectives that involve using actual computer language to activate terminals

#

Co op is VERY focused in the game especially

balmy mason
#

If we really are gonna face the fungal zombies, I think they could really go the GTFO route

#

Night Marsh would fit right in

wanton wasp
runic yarrow
signal wren
#

Tried to be stealthy but it can go wrong frighteningly fast

#

This Co-op horror shooter is no joke in terms of difficulty

round fable
#

what does the season 5 thing mean

#

pv(p)ve

balmy mason
#

The middle P is optional

#

But the E is not

round fable
#

yeah thats

wanton wasp
#

That's fucking awful

round fable
#

mildly concerning

wanton wasp
#

Actually just arc raiders all over again dude

round fable
#

but also its a year off from now so im not gonna think about it yet

pve will be experimental in the second half of s2 and thats it for now

Does anyone play Forza horizon 5 ?

#

Besides fry he asleep or something

wanton wasp
#

Nah

ashen shore
runic yarrow
#

How much stuff is their to do ?

ashen shore
#

There is a lot of races on a large map, a reasonably decent tuning system for an arcade racing game, and the hot wheels stuff is awesome

#

Idk much about if they have FOMO or not I didn't really pay attention to that

#

@tender helm played as well he might be able to better explain it

runic yarrow
#

Can I race for and buy upgrades for my cars ?

tender helm
#

Hi I'm here

languid patrol
tender helm
#

Horizon games are generally really fun, but 5 has some pretty bad map issues that makes it among the least fun

#

Which like

#

Don't get me wrong

#

In a vacuum, it's a good map, just a little bit soulless

lavish forge
#

A little bit is an understatement

#

It’s probably one of the worst maps in the horizon series

runic yarrow
#

Aww ):

#

That's disappointing

tender helm
#

Like i said, if you can get it for cheap its 100% worth playing as a holdover until FH6 drops for PS

runic yarrow
#

It's like 35 rn

Keep in mind that fh5 has a fuck ton of loading screens

Like a noticeable amount that gets annoying after a bit

idk how people get mired in the quantity of content when it's close to unplayable

mental brook

Game's barely playable

#

Should've just said that

vagrant summit
#

I mean my main issue with it is the entire control scheme so that's what I said

#

after over a decade of souls with excellent controls idk how people play this fucking game and don't mind having to input 3 buttons to pick up a fucking coin off the ground

mental brook
#

Other games got my interest. I need to play again

formal gull
#

I'm replaying Sniper Elite 3 and Watch Dogs again

mental brook
#

I just need to finish Abiotic

wanton wasp
#

Cyberpunk is not all that ngl

#

Abiotic looks pretty neat

mental brook
#

It's such a hidden gem of a game

wanton wasp
#

I've seen gameplay and it looks pretty good

mental brook
#

If you like half life and scp then give it a go

vagrant summit
#

aboitic is an absolute banger

#

and the general map design is incredibly well made

mental brook
vagrant summit
#

with just the right amount of base building without needing to build a fucking manor to house useless NPCs and whatnot

wanton wasp
#

It's one of those cases where gatekeeping was actually needed ngl

vagrant summit
#

I still need to find time with my homie to clear it out but it's got so so much content

#

we just cleared reactors and I'm pretty sure we're really not close to the end lmao

mental brook
#

I'm on the last segment

#

Residence is a solid section

vagrant summit
#

all of the main building sections have been really incredibly solid

#

it's so impressive to see a map that's actually built like it would be used by actual people, and still have it be playable

mental brook
#

I'm gonna be so sad when I finish

#

Cause I won't be able to experience a game like it again

vagrant summit
#

they seem to be making updates fairly regularly

#

but yeah you can't really rediscover it even with a friend

mental brook

If I could wipe my mind I would just to play it again from scratch

vagrant summit

the outer wilds experience

Need to play that also

seeing that we're closing out on reactors and we got like 11 more areas to discover on the pip boy is fairly insane

vagrant summit
#

don't believe I've ever seen someone dislike it

#

do it really without any guides or nothing tho, it's built from the ground up to be difficult purely because of your lack of knowledge about the world

mental brook
vagrant summit
#

security was fun

#

reaper was a little jarring but it's short enough of an area to not become old

mental brook
#

First time it was horrible

vagrant summit
#

if it'd been as big as reactors it would have been atrocious

#

but as it stands it kinda functions as a nice little transitional area and I think it hits the right spot length wise

mental brook
#

Shoutout to Marion

#

Best npc

#

Best armour also highkey

vagrant summit
#

I wanted to try it but I really positively cannot be fucked killing symphonists

#

gotta wait for the event and then randomly walk around to find them and then hope they don't just despawn as they get low on life, shit sucks

mental brook
#

Think at most you gotta kill 2

vagrant summit
#

I can't wear full sets anyway I've been rocking bionic legs and the order hat for half my gametime lmao

mental brook
#

Never used the legs

vagrant summit
#

it's hard to get off them once you try

#

not needing splints is nice, and run speed is just free bonus

mental brook
#

I'll use them on my next run

vagrant summit
#

and the order hat is just too good, accuracy and reload xp are positively broken at high level

mental brook
#

I wanna start using other armour

#

Reactor and Hyperion are nice but I like "off meta" stuff

vagrant summit
#

yeah I did end up not rotating around many armour set ngl

#

I stayed with 2-piece of the very first set for a long long time

#

and the exor one that gives move speed is cool too but it needs fish bones to fix and I really don't enjoy fishing lmao

mental brook
#

I never realised how kinda meh the manufacturing armour is

#

Until it's last upgrade

vagrant summit
#

it's mildly nice as a new armor set

#

but I honestly feel like +10 weight is so much nicer, and you generally don't need that much armor if you use shields anyway

cold musk
vagrant summit
#

I'm ngl I think 80% of the controls are the worst control to do that action I've ever seen in a video game

pseudo sparrow
vagrant summit
#

brother I gotta claw on my controller like a Melee competitive runner if I wanna turn my lantern on and off what the fuck are we doing here

pseudo sparrow
#

It's such a barebones open world design to me

vagrant summit
pseudo sparrow
#

And it also looks like it doesn't really know what to do with the designs

pseudo sparrow
vagrant summit
#

we'll see ig, a friend is convinced they will fix the control scheme over the next year, I'm personally very unconvinced

vagrant summit
#

but even just the intro does everything you shouldn't do in RPG intros

#

I know what bugs me actually, it's that it's an RPG that's been designed like the last 10-15 years of RPGs didn't exist

mental brook
vagrant summit
#

eh it's just fairly cheap when you can make it and at that point the other armor set is kinda weak for the first bullet enemies

pseudo sparrow
vagrant summit
#

but yeah otherwise it's nothinig crazy

vagrant summit
#

then the gameplay comes, and it's worse

pseudo sparrow
#

Ah

lavish forge
#

Idk who composed Marathon’s soundtrack but they cooked

vagrant summit
#

the whole targeting being non functional comes to light, and if you miss the one time you can try each control, you will not be explained the control again

#

you're told to save people you've never seen before, and you're introduced to generic good and bad groups with no reason

#

then you get a middling boss fight with poorly signalled attacks

#

and then you're killed, given hope you might play your own character, before being told that no, you're gonna keep playing that random dude that got saved by macguffin number one for no reason

pseudo sparrow
#

Yeah no lowkey something that made me a little skeptical was not being able to make your own character

#

I thought that was a standard in these types of games nowadays

vagrant summit
#

there's something to be said about set characters, it does let developers flesh out the player character a lot more

#

it's less a question of bad and good, and rather a question of what do you want to do with the playable char

#

the fact here is that the one char you play is a nothingburger generic white boy with no introduction

#

he's literally designed like the default nord skin in skyrim like wtf

lavish forge
#

The other two characters also have no introduction btw

vagrant summit
#

I'm unsurprised

#

You meet the chick in a random ass cutscene with a dude saying “oh she’s staying at your camp btw”

They all herding over to Forza 6 now (which granted could probably be good, but still)

#

$120 car game over Subnautica 2 with me brah

vagrant summit
#

I only play car video games if I can put neons on a nissan supra

weary steppe
#

Honest question: Apart from, well, new car models... what do half the new car games actually improve from the previous titles?

#

Forza 6 over 5, for example

runic yarrow
#

Yo I love crimson desert

vagrant summit
#

I just enjoy the general vibes and gaudiness of it all

tender helm
# weary steppe Forza 6 over 5, for example

handling models, lighting/physics engines, visual upgrades/some adjustments, improvements to map layouts (a lot of FH5 DLCs were tests for FH6), new progression systems etc

runic yarrow
#

I think EA gave up on it tho

vagrant summit
#

I liked the visuals but it wasn't nothing special

#

Heat was a lot more fun

tender helm
#

Heat was EoS'd too early

#

not EoS'd but its lifespan was nowhere near long enough

runic yarrow
#

I don't understand these companies

tender helm
#

but yeah FH6 reviews look good and its like

vagrant summit
#

all I want is an underground 2 or most wanted remake, that's all

#

£60 on steam

#

so ill pick it up for tuesday

runic yarrow
#

If they just added everything good from previous titles and put em on a good map they'd make bank

lavish forge
#

Heat performed kind of as expected but they also had to help with bf2042

#

So every game was pretty much gutted

tender helm
#

still crazy that BF was developed in the town I go to uni at

lavish forge
#

Bf5, BF2, Heat

#

How is that crazy

tender helm
#

its this random fuckass town in the UK lmao

runic yarrow

Just for bf2024 to be forgotten

but we got criterion games

It happens every so often

I think we got one rn? Seeing as theres an event

balmy mason
#

From the posts I've read from time to time, the game is horribly unstable?

#

Like, ship will just randomly implode for no reason

#

And you gotta do stuff to get them back and restock them each time

#

Does not sound fun

mental brook

Yeah idk what the hell they're doing rn

It sucks really

balmy mason
#

Does not instill me with confidence

mental brook
#

Apparently it happens a lot with new big patches

balmy mason

There's someone been trying to get me into the game, but it does not look like an enjoyable experience

# mental brook Most clips i have are random

Since I use OBS to clip these days theyre random at first too cause they all just go into the bigass folder and are named as Replay so every few months when its like 300 or close to that clips stored up I go through and name them all so they can be sorted into the library

mental brook
#

I just get clips from ps

boreal ether
#

I dont trust the cloud, I got all my shit stored on my external hdd

mental brook

Or from a friend when he sends them

My clips

viscid elm
#

Oooo wait I see battlefield

boreal ether
#

Thats where a good portion of them went yeah

#

OBS doesnt have the ability to auto name clip files based on the game youre playing so theyre all just called Replay

#

ANd when that folder gets too full I go through, name them all and sort them where they need to go

mental brook
boreal ether
#

This be the library™

viscid elm
#

What does OBS mean?

boreal ether
#

OBS is a recording program on PC

viscid elm
#

Oh ok.

#

I don’t know this stuff lol

boreal ether
#

Pretty much ever youtuber and streamer youve seen uses it

viscid elm
#

Oooh ok

boreal ether
#

Its the defacto industry standard cause it do be free and is quite capable

subtle elk
#

#

it's free and does everything most people need

#

youtubers can just download a separate editing software

viscid elm
#

Cool

boreal ether
#

If youve ever seen any video where someone tabs out and it shows this UI

#

Thats OBS

viscid elm
#

Oh wow

boreal ether
#

It looks daunting and it sometimes is but its also not as complicated once youve watched like one tutorial

mental brook
#

He's recording this very conversation

boreal ether
#

Thats the power of the clip function

#

Anything said in the last 30 seconds I just hit le funny keybind and its saved

viscid elm
#

Cool

eternal holly
#

i just use whatever gpu software i have to clip

boreal ether
#

I used to use Shadowplay too

#

But after a while I realized Nvidia might be genuinely stupid and switched to OBS

viscid elm
#

Well I’m gonna go. I’m starting to hurt where I had surgery.

my issue is that it likes to switch to a different monitor whenever it feels like it

boreal ether
#

Thats tough

eternal holly
#

everything else is fine

boreal ether
#

The only time I ever had an issue with OBS is when one random update out of the blue broke like every encoder setting and suddenly my 30 second clips were like 15 gigabytes in size

lavish forge
boreal ether
#

Ive cut this one down to like 9 seconds and its still almost twice the size of my regular 30 sec clips

eternal holly
#

gotta lower that bit rate brother

#

i used to have 1:30min clips that were 1gb cause i had it on max
