>Server slam failed>Streamer tournament failed>Vtuber sponsored week failed>400k discord groomers failed>Cryo archive failed>20% off steam sale failed>Most watched State of Play ever failed>F2p week failed>PVE mode failed>Killing Destiny 2 failed>Season 2 failedSo what now?
I checked on their discord this morning and I saw they had server issues, then had a look at the player count: 7k.So okay then, not only nobody is playing their game, they fucking suck at even keeping the servers stable with such laughable player counts. This company is a sick joke.
Go back in time and don't completely destroy your goodwill with the Destiny community?
>>741514534>So what now?
>>741514691Destiny community deserves nothing though.
>>741514534LMAO, they for real had a vtuber sponsored week? They deserve every single failure just for that alone, cringe cunts
>>741514934Doesn't matter. They're the ones buying the game
>PVE mode failed>Killing Destiny 2 failedDid the AI start bugging out here?
>>741514534Which one are we on now, Concord 5?
>>741514691Destiny was a fucking disaster and made no money
>>741514534
>>741516174Yeah, that's why Sony didn't purchase Bungie for 3.6 million dollars
>>741515784Concord 0: HyenasConcordConcord 2: HighguardConcord 3: MarathonConcord 4: Last FlagConcord 5: Br€ak In (Formerly Fairgame$)Concord 6: Horizon GatheringsConcord 7: 4LoopConcord 8: Time Takers
>>741516290Concoird 9: Fairgame$
>>741515135They already did years ago. They don't generate enough money to make new content for destiny.
Have they tried doubling down on doubling down?
>>741516251Correct, Sony bought Bungie because they could develop live service, not because Destiny was profitable, because it was not
>>741515135>Doesn't matter. They're the ones buying the gameDestiny put Bungie in the Red and Sony even highlighted how Destiny 2 failure is to blame for the devaluation Bungie was hit by
>>741514534Bungie had already burned any pre-emptive good will so had to sell the game to the audience. But speaking for myself all I saw was ugly niggers with missing textures. It looked vaguely pozzed and that's an immediate no buy.
>>741514534Game has 10k players and server issues. It's donezo. Probably internal sabotage at this point
>>741516232>Weekend at Bungie's
>>741514534game is good, its just cool to hate on new things amongst "gamers" nowadays. Apex was a million times bigger slop and more woke, yet everyone ate it up. online politics ruined an entire generation in the past years.
>>741514534>how can bungie save marathon?time machine. not spend hundreds of millions of dollars developing a game in a turbo niche genre.
>>741516998Or maybe people are sick of you championing ugliness and are rightfully telling you to fuck off with that shit?
apex had 2 major things going for it.the source engine allows for really fun movement.battle royales are extremely popular.
>>741517229so thats why overwatch, apex, R6, valorant, league, arc raiders, even fucking destiny are still massively popular? games that actually have record numbers of niggers and woke characters in them? so I wonder why dont you people attack those game? because you are weak little pussies and always choose the non resistant easy path to bully something. your kind dont actually care about any of this shit that you are preaching about. virtue signaling subhumans.
>>741514534Should have just been a single player campaign mode like the originals, the story is unironically the only interesting thing the game has.
>>741517649All those games are shit too yea, they deserve to fail. All I do is sit behind a desk and play good vidya
>>741514534the game sold 2 million copies. now we sit back and enjoy our future seasons.
>>741516998GOTY, and it will win multiplayer of the year
>>741517649i am happy marathon will have it's five seasons to grow, season 2 was sabottaged by d2 final update taking away 40% of the playerbase and those people won't be back till season 3 now that they lost two weeks and feel like they're behind
>>741514534It doesn't matter how much sponsorships and money you throw around when the game itself is shit no one wants to play
>>741516998To the average person this game is indistinguishable from apex legendsIt's a bunch of neon colored cyberpunk characters shooting eachother on a planet with white-panel vaguely industrial scifi buildings
>>741514534Keep releasing high quality content, improve onboarding process and and hope for the best. What else can they do ? Game is solid, one of the best shooter to come out in years but suffer from (deserved) Bungie's reputation
>>741518054Game could go f2p tomorrow and have the same amount of players it has now
>>741518154600 hours on the ps5, $400 spent on lux, GOTY
>>741518170false. this season saw a sudden and drastic drop in player numbers when destiny 2 final update came out, now that marathon is bungie only child for the forseable future the next seasons will be much better retention wise. this is an extraction shooter with seasonal wipes, the majority of sales and new players come at the start of a new season, no one will jump in mid season to be shred by people far ahead in the item economy
>>741518186It is unironically the FPS of the year. No other shooter comes even close to it. I hope the game ends up doing well long term, until then I'll just enjoy it as much as I can
>>741518361So true sis. Season 3 100k ccu
>>741518361i know that feel bro, my dad's Enron stock is going to THE MOON any fucking day now. it takes like 25 years for people to forgive massive financial scandals and nobody wants to jump in mid-quarter and get shredded by the SpaceX IPO
Imagine how retarded a person would have to be, to give money to BUNGIE - bungie, of all companies. Releasing shitty games like halo reach and destiny 1 , let alone literally scamming their players with destiny 2, selling out to China, etc.You must really be brainwashed by expensive advertising to fall for this shit, lmao. It's no coincidence that most of their budget and effort goes into marketing.
>>741514534>offline campaign >attractive characters>fun traversal mechanics>f2p with paid gooner skins>some kind of actual progress carried over between seasonsNow do all that before you release the game and you'll be all set.
>>741516290It's missing Concord Origins: Battleborn and Concord Gaiden: Lawbreakers.
>>741518087>To the average person this game is indistinguishable from apex legends"average person" yes the new breed of netflix gamers, and larpers aka fake gamers. they can't distinguish two games with very different artstyles from each other. these same "gamers" trashtalk marathon for being slop and then go on to spend thousands of dollars on mobile gacha games and league of legends skins. they are also insanely dogshit at everything they play. I just realized at the end that i basically described asmongold.
>>741514534by making the destiny 2 vaulted content playable again
>>741517803You didn't understand what I said (obviously). I don't give a shit what's your opinion on those games. I called your kind out for not being present in the discussions around those games because you are weak little losers afraid of any actual pushback. posting smug anime pictures wont save you from being a failure.
>>741520795Is individually arguing with anonymous posters a good use of company time and money?
>>741519905The art styles aren't very different. Just because bungie spent a lot more doesn't mean the end result is some kind of distinguished, unsung magnum opus .. it's still a shooter game targeted primarily for braindead casuals
>>741521129Yes. bungie pays me 5 bucks for every single post. You could say I'm making bank. You on the other hand doing the same for free. you probably smell too.
>>741521447Hahahaha at least your mother bitch can afford lentils today
>>741520009They deleted it. Didn't even keep a copy for the archive. What baffles me is why anyone gave bungle the benefit of the doubt to the extent that they bought into marathon. It's like saying 'Yes, please scam me harder daddy.'
>>741514534>Make a tranny game>Only trannies play it>Suprised_pikachu_face.png
I never played Destiny so it's pretty interesting hearing about it in these threads. Genuinely had no idea how shitty Bungie was.
>>741519905>>741521323Apex artstyle is better than this, and apex do not have a good artstyle beyond structures.The characters/weapons in this game are buttfuck ugly, at least apex covers most of it with particles and long distance combat.
>>741521513Stop being so attitudie my smelly friend. We can share the lentils.
>>741521596>They deleted itI don't believe this
>>741521727but enough about crimsaar desert
>>741521936They code wiped content. Actual literal lost media. Forever.
>>741518454non ironically, it will. Season 2 was set for 100k, we had 40k by 3pm, then the servers went down for 11 hours and only came back 1 am of the next say, and we had servers problems for two weeks straight after, even worse after the destiny 2 final update, it was a major fuck up of a release, maybe the most fucked up in bungie history
>>741521867Sit down frend and let's break bread
>>741521807bungie is cool, those are just but hurt retards mad about content that wasn't even good and got vaulted because their tiger engine was all kinds of fucked and not suited for long term development
>>741514534I played for 1hour during F2P and hated it
>>741522197you're just bad at fps and it's ok
>>741521813>Apex artstyle is better than thisOMG this right here sister. so much this.
>>741518826>my dad's Enron stock is going to THE MOON any fucking day now. it takes like 25 years for people to forgive massive financial scandals I dunno, the people seemed to forgive Dubya Bush for his part in it instantly.
>>741522178You're gonna have to try someone else.
>>741521936IIRC they got taken to court. Judge demanded they produce the code. They couldn't, they straight up deleted it. There was never any "vault" where the content was kept. They deleted it to force people to buy new expansions
>>741516998Apex was most people's introduction to the Titanfall shooter/movement model at least the way they implemented it and not like in direct relation to older source games. It didn't matter what the characters were because it was a BR made during the BR craze and the gameplay was more than serviceable, and the amount of players well surpassed the Titanfall crowd so no one knew how neutered the gameplay actually was. All the characters were serviceable anyway, and you had Gibraltar which more than makes up for the goofy cast. Wasn't really until the later additions that they went off the deep end, especially with everyone's obsession with adding "not" Lil Fag X to their games.Marathon should have been a small project. Instead it's way too overproduced despite the actual scale of the game, and it took priority over making an emergency Destiny 3 after tons of shitty monetization killed Destiny 2. You can't put all your eggs into the extraction shooter market when there's a metric fuck ton of them getting released all trying to rip players from each other. Why play the game that stole art when Arc Raiders with a better engine, animation quality and phenomenal audio design, is sitting right there and it was absurdly popular at the time and it catered to PvE chads with the matchmaking that tracked if you actually shot people or not. Why play a "hardcore" extraction shooter when Tarkov exists and had its 1.0 launch and when there's a bunch of direct clones of it to choose from as well, one of them being completely free. The game's visual style might be unique, but it's probably more of a warning to potential buyers especially when they had to take "heavy inspiration" from someone else. The gameplay is serviceable but arguably the same random hodge podge of slop you get anywhere else. There's nothing remarkable about the game. So, it's easy to hate on it, and infinitely easier to just ignore it and look at other games.
>>741522324How did they judge punish them for doing that?
>>741522254Boh chara artstyles are buttfuck ugly, yesBut apex cover that ugly better with the effects, full cover armors and long range combatIn marathon is in your face all the time with the lego guns
>>741514534sony will give them until season 5 and then see wha to do with the game from there, personaly i think season 1 was pretty good but had a retention problem by being so had and stingy. season 2 release was broken and took 2 weeks for servers to be normal again and destiny 2 final update took away half of the playerbase. season 3 and 4 will be the real test
>>741522356"If you can't undo the recycle bin clear via save state I will fine you $100"
>>741518361Season 2 came out 3 weeks ago and it's already deader than the end of season 1. This is after a weeklong sale and free period. This game is fucked.
>>741522356He didn't. They reached a settlement with the guy that sued. The revelation that they deleted it was just a side effect of the case
>>741522335>All the characters were serviceableNo they were not but lets just pretend otherwise. Also Apex did not have the Titanfall movement. nothing even close to it. Obviously they seem very similar when you are only familiar with titanfall movement trough youtube.
>>741522680season 2 was handicapped by servers being literally offline for 11 hours at release and destiny 2 final update, the game will keep avaraging 10k peak daily beucase those are the core marathon players who will not leave no matter what and season 3 will onboard the people who quit back. i had a friend with 800 hours on marathon who quit for d2 mot and he and his friends will only be back for s3
>>741522728>neutered the gameplay actually wasthere ya go champ you missed that part
>>741522808>a single instance of downtime killed 100% of the momentum the game had and no one came back That's even more grim than the non-cope reality
>>741522808I don't think you're a real person.
>>741514534It can't be saved, there is no space in the market for that game. It was a stupid idea from the start.
>>741522425I'm sure it must be nice living your life in willful ignorance in order to appease your discord friend group.
>>741522968i don't give a shit, really
>>741522928it did, servers remained unstable for 2 weeks after, ask destiny 2 people, the servers were giving anteater and weasel errors day and night
>>741523082cared enough to reply
>>741522997GOTY
>>741522997Skin them all
>>741523148people say d2 releases always have problems but i can't remember an instance where the servers went down for almost half a day and remained shit for 10 days after
I like it Wish it had more content you can figure out organically instead of having to watch a YouTube vid to figure it out
>>741522997I'm gonna be honest, this once again just looks like a bunch of random iconography slapped together to attempt to be unique. It seems interesting on the surface but the more I look the more I just don't feel like this design really does anything. It's a bit of a shame really.
>>741519260>F2P with raped artstyle and obligatory Chinese New Year and Holiday sets Nah
>even the marathon ccu threads have low ccu nowWhat went wrong?
>>741522480Whichever season adds a proper permanent PvE mode will be the real test tbhdesu
>>741514534Recycle it into more Destiny 2 content and pray players will come back.
>>741523776no one cares about bungie anymore
>>741523418Ikr it's like they're trying to be 40k now? After I saw their crotchless robots trying to be shilled as sex symbols (2 weeks in) I knew it was over
>>741523776One would think that the "Marathon will shut down in x weeks" discourse gets old after nearly 4 months.
>>741515191Did yours?
>>741523776Whats there to say? Game flopped. Bungie gonna get chopped.
>>741523418Its all fine. I already accepted the fact long time ago that gamers in general have bad taste. Nowadays I just cringe when I see them complain about unreal engine and all games being the same, looking the same while spending their money on the exact same shit every single year. literal cattle.
>>741523776It was fun seeing Bungie/Marathon fags scramble. But now they've exhausted pretty much all their options. The game has failed. We can guess on when they might choose to pack it up rather than bleed money. We know the job cuts are coming there. But besides that what else is there to say? I guess we could speculate on that one game they've got waiting in the wings, but its not Destiny so nobody really cares
>>741522335That's a lot of cope
>>741524360>You are cattle if you don't soiface over the newest trannyslop from one of the most hated devs operating right now
>>741524538>most hated devs operating right nowyet they will play games from even more hated and more woke companies, so what exactly are you trying to say?
>>741524360These models would go hard in Gmod. This is the type of detail work that I would draw up in middle school, as in overly filled with little decals and designs that make no visual sense and detract from the appeal. This game really isn't uniquely different from anything else on the market. We all have shit taste, pretending to be better than the average consumer whilst consuming similar slop isn't going to change that. You just have your fixation, and they have theirs.
>>741524464They are going to siphon money from SIE for as long as possible. Any reasonable C-suite would have kicked them to the kerb by this point, but we all know that SIE is prideful, cowardly, and completely retarded.
>>741524746Source?
>>741514534I'm not sure it's salvageable. It's generic extraction slop, it piggybacks and shits on an old, respected IP and it's ugly as all fuck. Why the fuck would you make this? How does this thing feel if you were a fan of Marathon back in the day? Like Bungie spitting straight in your face?
>>741523528The artstyle is already raped.
>>741524760Can I see your current work anon
>>741525043It has always been rapedAll the way since Pathways
>>741524360These characters look like when you mod a game but there's an error loading the modded textures
>>741514534Maybe they should try to make it in to a good game instead?
>>741525173It is
>>741525334Not with this item economy
>>741524760>This is the type of detail work that I would draw up in middle schoolYeah im sure it is. Im sure it is Anon...
>>741523827season half of season 2 will have a experimental pve playlist, season 3 will bring the full pve mode, so you may try it sometime around the end of july
>>741525861holy fucking kino
>>741525380season 2 was raped three ways with the bad servers, d2 end taking half of the players and the massive nerf to the loot on the new map. they have to pick a course and stick to it with season 3
>Bungie is so ass that can’t sustain 10k servers, but believe me dude! By season 3 the servers will be golden!
>>741525861$4 billion game by the way.
>>741514534>Vtuber sponsored week failedWait, what vtubers they used?
>>741514534by adding a pve mode
>>741526305give them 4 more that is just too good
>>741516549>>741516749the reason why destiny "didn't make money" was because they added kernel level malware to the game on top of sunsetting content for LITERALLY no reason constantly, bungle had LONG pissed away their playerbase with retarded nigger tier decisions that were neither the fault of destiny itself nor of snoy who wouldn't buy bungle until LITERAL YEARS after bungle pissed away the entirety of the destiny playerbase
>>741526305sony paid 3.6 billion for bungie and a bunch of games they showed them, not for a single game. like how fucking dumb you are actually.
>>741526302marathon launch went without a single problem but season 2 was bungie worst launch in history not sure how that happened
>>741514534>How can Bungie save Marathon?I dunno, pray to God?Literally the only thing that is saving Marathon at this point is if God is real and He accepts failed videogames into Heaven.Cunt's fucked, Sony isn't gonna pull a Lazarus.
>>741526607There is one and it's kinda lame
>>741516651destiny WAS profitable, until bungle had a bunch of "bright" ideas to fuck with what was an already wildly successful game
>>741514534If they get a government defense contract
>>741526693the game is doing about as well as seas of thieves and the game is on season 20, marathon doesn't take much to keep going different from d2
>>741521807i played destiny, up until they tacked on kernel level virusware to the game, that was the last straw, instant uninstall and remove from steam library
>>741526781a team of 120 people can keep updating marathon and if every season pulls those half million sales like season 2 pulled the game is set
How do they save the game? By not making the most hostile pvp game on the market for only the 1% of streamer and hardcore audiences that are so small they cannot support even small productions.Casuals, most of the population will not put their dick in a blender for fun.If the game was PVE, a coop horror sci fi experience with slower tactical elements? Maybe, just don't make people lose everything when killed by a player.
>>741526892that is why bungie and sony wanted to move from destiny, the playerbase is a bunch of women
>>741526963only womoids are the kind of subhuman retards that are ok with having kernel level spyware run by a bunch of shady kraut faggots on their machine, kill yourself, yid
>>741526305>it is not
>>741526921Considering how unfun and bad it is to fight UESC, they'd have to make that aspect more exciting first

>>741527579the graph clearly shows a drop of 40% in the playerbase on june 9th 2026. it is just data.
How the fuck does a gaming studio have this much people? Fire 400 workers and that's not even all of them? No wonder western development is so fucked up. How does anyone think this shit is sustainable. You have literal games that are made one one person.
>>741527517I've been here since like 2010 which is probably the time you were born around.
>>741527652half of marathon playerbase are destiny 2 pvp players so it makes sense
>>741527620I think that's the point since all the factions reps are supposed to look radically different
>>741527652>he graph clearly shows a drop of 40% in the playerbase on june 9th 2026. it is just data.what? it was slowly bleeding players since the start of S2. it never recovered because the game sucks not because D2 somehow stole all of its players.>June 7: 32,661>June 8: 28,851>June 9: 25,807>June 10: 19,781
>>741527240Destiny has like 7-8 enemy races? Who says they can't make PVE enemies? Remove the timer or make them mission based, put in tons of quests, its all get x, extract x, kill x anyway so you can make those quickly.>>741527717These are super cool but none of my friends are going to play a pvp game. There isn't a lot of coop pve only sci fi games with a creepy setting like this or with gameplay like it.

>>741528443>omg, sisters, is this peer-reviewed?
>>741528208Hello fellow Rams Chad
>>741516998>exp>barrierI sincerely hope that is a new map.Issue with Marathon is that it is presented and supposed to be an extraction shooter, yet when it comes to actually playing the game, it plays like Apex, it plays like a battle royale. Identity crisis of a product. Maps are not big enough, PvP is there to pad the play time and slow down content consumption. Its not good at all. Solo is iffy because its the only time it feels like you are playing an extraction shooter, but for majority of engagements with other players, its still feels like you are playing a hero shooter. Not fun at all.>online politics ruined everythingYes, thats what happens with culture wars.
>>741514534Make it a looter shooter
>>741528150The anticheat supports linux btw, it's a minor configuration change. It's specifically Bungie not making that change to support the platform. With proton now they basically wouldn't need to do anything
were marathon threads always full of indians ragefarming?
>>741528567Bodied that freak
>>741528581Rams House!
>>741526721Its lame because>not actually PvE because rooks>grey sponsored kit>in a starter mapIts ok for any beginners and mat looting. If your teammates know what they are doing, you will clip Wardens and maybe even get some keys to key rooms.I am waiting for them to do a survival sponsored Outpost and Cryo. Now those two is where the fun is.
>>741528637no sane linux user would ever let that kernel-level cancerware on their machine
>own one of the most played FPS on the market>steal from your customers then kill their game>they refuse to play your new one and hope it dies>players who tested it said it was shit>the public test people played arc raiders insteadit was made cystal fucking clear this game was dead on arrival
The reason why the loot is unsatisfying is that you can't really look at it besides the guns and the only thing the guns are fun to use against are other players (with an incredibly short ttk) because the ai enemies are currently all lame.
>>741527826>no UESCThere was an interesting video on 'tube about which faction would embody which deadly sin.>UESC - Pride>MIDA - Wrath>CyAc - Sloth>NuCal - Gluttony>Traxus - Greed>SekGen - Envy>Arachne - LustRunners are so screwed...
>>741515191No? They announced Destiny 2's EoS and also announced a PvE mode for Marathon. They're probably trying to force a migration from Destiny 2 over to Marathon which needless to say isn't working as well as they thought it would. My guess is the EoS announcement just served as a nasty reminder to Destiny 2 players of how much of a waste of money it ultimately was and just decided to be done with Bungie.
>>741529182Density players most likely move to Warframe instead.
>>741515050brother, almost all new video games are paying streamers to play them. literally go on any streamer who calls themselves variety gaming with 100 or more viewers and they're being paid to play it
>>741528669>indiansthats just modern 4chan in gerenal. they post from their phone and shit on every game they cant run on their non existent hardware.

>>741529342Is this what you tell your handler at Bungie?
>>741528939sure but that's besides the point, bungie can easily configure it to work with linux thus removing literally the only barrier to their games not working on that OS. The question was not whether or not linux users are retarded enough to install bungie slop
>>741528134not 40% and the game was losing players every day from the start of the f2p. not because of D2 but because of the game being shitty and stinky.
>>741529442do not be angry sir
Add COOMGOD skins and I will play your game
It can't be saved.The Art style looks like shit. Everything looks like it's half finished and random neon colors. Not even a Concord or "woke" design really, just shit.Worse of all it's ANOTHER Live Service game. Bungie has 2 already, along with the hundreds of others from various devs. Not many people who engage with Live Services games are gonna jump ship to another one
>>741529227warframe really isn't in any better shape, game is pure shit now and has a massive identity crisis going on
>>741519874Battleborn wasn't Concord. It was just a game that fucking sucked. To be Concord there's a few more steps.Lawbreakers was ahead of it's Concord time, though.
>>741529637Nigga my college roommate was obsessed with Warframe. In 2013. The fact you're even uttering it in the same sentence as Trannython is a testament to its staying power.

i am so glad marathon flopped
>>741530591I dont think you understand what I asked for, but it's fine I try to be patient with the mentally handicapped. I repeat it for you. Post a trans or any lgbt woke character/lore/anything from Marathon. Then it's my turn and I post some from your favorite game. Good luck!
I don't think you guys know what actual flops look like.
>>741530895did that game put them $250m in the red?
>>741530895What's crazy is this shit just went into season 4 and I think it still has less content than the alpha.

>>741532062But marathon is good
>>741514534>How can Bungie save Marathon?they can't. They can keep it where it is for as long as they can, but they can't turn things around with the product they created.
>>741532289At least they found that stable player base they've been looking for. Right?
>>741532554stable as in steadily declining, sure. That's stability, I guess.
why don't they just make it free forever
>My spirit will rise from the grave and the world will see i was right-D2
>>741514534Ride that failure into the grave. It's fun watching all these companies die when everyone tells them specifically what not to do.
Should I bros? The only thing stopping me is the player count.
im so glad this is failing. bungie went from a creative and fun game like halo where players could make their own maps and playlists and all play together in a big co-op campaign with modifiers and shit to always-online daily login weekly challenge hamster wheel bullshit with destiny to an even worse type of game with this extraction cuntery.i hope they all get fired and cant afford their rent and have to suck diseased homeless men's cocks just to afford clean drinking water. fuck bungie. fuck bungie with a broken broom handle until the sun explodes.
>>741533242Should you what? Apply for MAID? Yes. Beats going back to India
>>7415145344 player 60 hour multiple-ending campaign co-op with a rich story. Nothing else will save it. So it's doomed. A proper 5v5 team slayer multiplayer with a 16v16 big team battle w/vehicles might delay the inevitable though. No one wants extraction games. The industry has gone insane.
>>741514534They need to redesign it from the ground up. As it stands, it’s just a really shitty battle royale that will alienate the majority of battle royale players. It has a nice aesthetic though.
>>741533242why bother it will go f2p before it finally dies.

>>741529786It's literally designed to look like a spilled manufactured corporate product ...by bungie, which is a soulless corporation in itself, owned by China, who's only goal is to suck their player base' wallets as dry as possible. That's 2× anti soul.

>>741533242Yeah, S2 just started so nows a good a time as any
>>741514534pic related
i hate how the game looks, but i love the idea behind the look.3d printercore should be ugly and industrial, but in a more utilitarian way.the guns should be blocky and modular, studded with fasterners, hexagons and unused attachment points.the 'characters' should be minimalist frames of made from bulk extruded metal, with printed motion/cable management.nearly loose electronics in square enclosures with ribbon cables and rainbow wires carefully arced around the motion points.and most importantly, each one should be slightly different, random parts could be different colors because they ran out of one material part way through the process, one chunk is clearly half spaghetti on the cosmetic side, but all the mounting points work so its fine, repaired portions are a totally different color, because its quicker and easier to just totally replace an entire panel than patch it up.shit dude, give them visible layer lines on armor portions where you can tell they were printed fast and loose.smooth panels and human faces feels too futuristic for "3d printed corpo soldiers"
>>741533242STOOOPPPPYOULL BECOME ADDICTED TO ROOK RUNS LIKE MEI fucking warned you.
>>741535997You’re misunderstanding the late cyberpunk aesthetic. The point is the beauty in the malformed. Society has surpassed the point of utility, so why make it igly
>>741535997I think they probably wanted to explicitly avoid hexagons because they're so over represented in modern sci-fi, I can't think of any of them appearing anywhere in the game except for a single gun sticker.

>>741535997I like it. It's like Starfield nasapunk but futuristic
>>741519874Battleborn had more people playing it than Concord, it's exempt from the series timeline.
>>741536346You don’t when playing marathon. You’ll have nightmares for weeks.
>>741536389>>741536220>>741536102fools.the reason it looks like it does is because thats what antireel was drawing as a future cyberpunk art style.it clashes with the games stated style, because it wasn't made for the games, it was made for twitter posts and selling at conventions.
the bold colors make sense to me, since it's a colony. you don't want people getting lost and shit so everything's bright and easily recognizable. the models don't really matter, you never see them unless you play in a group. when you fight other players the thought isn't omg that's hideous it's shoot fuck fuck fuck shoot ok im dead.
>>741536852Forgive me, the insightful wisdom of such a post has unclouded my judgment. Nay, would Inlay mine eyes upon a Steam Chart alongside Twitter drama, then I would say truly see.

>>741514534What happens next is Sony fires half of Bungie employees.
>>741516174It made no money but it built a fanbase. Fanbase can be leveraged for money later down the line.
save?
>>741537148Listen to me well: the Extraction MMO will be the next big genre.
>>741537159There’s no way there’s any more than 130 people working on Marathon anyway.
>>741537269
>>741537254they never really made much bungie merch.no show, or cartoon, no action figures, no comic books.
>>741537313Maybe, but there's 800 people at Bungie. Half is probably a conservative estimate.
>>741537467You think it’s a joke. I know, I play all these games unlike /v/. BRs, gacha, the older MMOs, extraction. The entire gaming landscape right now, will meet in the middle between arcade shooters (Fortnite, Apex, DMZ) and story-based experiences (Genshin, FFXIV). Players will start to lose purpose in arcade shooters, and the entire genre will shift into story-based stuff still with one foot in the extraction/pvp loop.
>>741530075>person confirms character is a tranny>in the game right?>no in their head canon outside the game>so not in the game? If I only consume game and say character is male I won't be banned right?>no you'll be banned for not knowing information outside gameThis is the problem with trannies.
>>741538053If the purpose of extraction was to go towards a team effort that would be something. Most are just >wow you unlocked the dickhead store you can now buy dildos

>>741514534Lol they keep throwing money at this game, hoping it's going to work, but it's just another tortanic.
why did it take 300 people 8 years and several hundred million dollars to make a multiplayer only game with 2 maps and 8 characters
>ctrl+f "blast">no resultsI SEE NO ONE HERE IS HAVING A BLAST
>>741514534give vandal a microbikini
>>741516549>They don't generate enough money to make new content for destiny.Bungie launched Destiny with 500 people working in the studio.If Destiny truly didn't make any money they wouldn't be able to expand the studio into over 1300 people with unknown amount of money invested into multiple failed projects after project.
>>741549979adult daycare theory is real
GAPED AND RAPED
Glad it failed. Wish Destiny failed too. All I wanted was a game akin to Halo.
>>741514534Create a purely PvE mode without the extraction shooter elements
>>741521949RAPED
>>741537664It's obvious very little manpower has consistently gone into Marathon compared to Destiny they literally just got done rerouting the entire staff to Destiny's update ffs.>>741537254You are right but this is Bungie and they have creative control. It was their choice to have no skins to buy and boring roblox guns. I enjoy the game but to me it's lacking content, depth, skill expression, or a wow factor that keeps people lingering around for updates. Like imagine if the spht boss fight on Cryos launch was both a great engaging fight and unleashed spht as a dangerous enemy in other maps. That fight has to be the worst I've seen since BotW bosses.
>>741516998>Apex was a million times bigger slop and more wokePolitical polarization when apex came out is nowhere as strong as as it is now, and if the bungie staff in charge did not want to see it or they don't have a good grasp on reality, that is entirely their problem. By being militant political activists they antagonized the largest portion of the userbase and they lost. It is 100% their own fault.
>>741538053this is just reddit duning kruger trying to see patterns in things that have no patterns, gaming has no trends, what happens is simply that a new fun game comes out that people enjoy, then others try to copy it to ride on the coattails, after a few years it's just beating a dead horse, then eventually another new game comes out that's fun and people enjoy and there'll be copycats>world of warcraft is popular and has copycats like ff14 or rift, this means the future of gaming is theme park mmos that work as social hubs for people to hang out in>then pubg becomes popular and there are copycats like apex and fortnite that ride on the br coattails, this means br shooters are the future of gaming>then genshin comes out and is popular, and there are copycats like wuwa and endfield come out riding on genshin's coattails, this means the future is story focused single player open world gacha rpgs>wukong comes out and is popular, leading to copycats like phantom blade zero and blood message, so the future of gaming is AAA action combat cinematic gamesand so on, you can't predict what will be the next popular game, then there will be copycats to ride on the coattails, that's all there is to it
>>741514534Make it f2p, who pays for gaas slop? People bought destiny because they were the halo studio back then, people were willing to pay a premium to see what bungie was doing. Now they are the destiny studio and the thought of paying for anything they put out feels like a scam.
>>741550951well they tried doing a free week and nobody gave a shit, at the end of the day this is a game that won't have a higher peak than 10k players, might as well just fleece them for all they're worth if they want to make any money
>>741550951F2P with Battleye would be the worst they can't make this F2P without using a modern anticheat and people still wouldn't stick around
>>741524360>gamers in general have bad tastethat's you. marathons aesthetic is quite frankly shit, i can sort of see the direction they were going with but the execution didn't land.
where is that leftist who kept saying the chuds lost because "you said Marathon would shut down in 2 weeks".
>>741552105I like itSadly they don't go hard into it aside from Cryo Archive and interior Outpost
>>741514534They probably can't. The game itself likely could be saved but Bungie is a bunch of retarded nigger monkeys and everything they do with the game just creates more issues than it solves. For example:>game has a skill tree system that you have to sacrifice your gear to get points in>due to high level loot overabundance at the start of the season and a very high gear to exp point convertion ratio top players get the whole system maxed out during the first couple of days and spend the rest of the time stacking their vaults with more gear than they will ever need for the rest of the season>then they proceed to nerf both gear high rarity drop rate and the conversion rate for everyone else basically pulling the ladder until the next server reset (in two and half months)And don't get me started on the sheer idiocy of making a game that punishes the player for losing so heavily being almost entirely based around who has better colored gun and a better shield, it's like battleroyale except the top players start every match being geared up with BiS shit and the rest is forced to be their shooting range targets Also the game currently doesn't reward doing map stuff at all and the best way to progress is killing others, what is even the point of being extraction game then? Bungie has some kind of internal conflict about what Marathon should be.Just give us single player campaign like Titanfall 2
>>741533242Don't ask here, Bharat Nation army will just say that it shuts down in a week.
>>741550072>ctrl+f "blast">get 2 resultsYou lied to me
>>741550296how long until /v/ starts glazing india for having the highest population
>>741552105Anyone who thinks that marathon looks bad is a soulless mutt who needs to be fed unreal engine slop until the end of their life. Which is already happening so its fine.
>>741514534Just cancel it and make a better game.
>>741552538>game I like has low numbersIt's niche, the common pleb won't get it.>game I hate has low numbersNo one wants to play dogshit

>>741552538uh oh, clitty leak melty!
mass leakage above me
>>741552724Unironically Bungie will never make a good game ever againBeause they are getting restructured into Playstation support studio next month
it’s just painfully average. gunplay is good. that’s it. im not putting down $40 for literally 4 maps (at a stretch) for always-online slop. i already have halo and i have MCC with enough mods to keep me happy for years, and i can play that offline or online at any time.

>>741553356Pucker up anon!
>>741514534two more weeks and marathon is dead on arrival. Especially after the powerful message we sent sony.
>>741553506Yeah it's not casual enough
>>741553267Sorry I didn't make it simple enough for you.Most online shooters attempt to be a game of chess. Two players or two teams of players with access to the same tools trying to wipe each other out. Marathon is a fucked up game of chess where you start with only rooks on your side of the board while the enemy might have nothing but queens. And Bungie made it worse by making getting better chess pieces much more difficult for those who didn't already have pockets full of the BiS ones.I don't know if you play chess mumbai or should I use a different game?
>>741553479I hope they do something like this with the assets they have. Art direction, music and lore are the best things about Marathon and they are stuck in a fucking extraction shooter. It's like a few years ago when they made VBTM into battle royale, who in their right mind would ever want that shit?
will these tranny shills disappear without a trace again once funding is cut like it happened with concord and highguard?

>>741514534All I wanted was a single player campaign about a cyborg security officer fighting aliens off his colony ship while discovering terminals full of esoteric lore. Why didn't they just make the Doom 2016 of Marathon?
>>741554780What Destiny players?
>>741555065Because nobody played that shit
I could tell from the start that game was gonna tank. The art style is pretentious af, and the UI is fucking horseshit from what I saw. I wouldn't even play this shit for free
All the rumors I've heard indicate complete panic over at the studio. Hearing information through the grape vine will only show you so much, but the thing is, every single one of my sources is saying the same thing.
There’s no saving it. It’s a shit game genre plain and simple. From the get go it should have been PlayStation’s Halo since Halo is dead now. They gambled and lost. Realistically they should just scrap it and go back to supporting destiny 2 while they rework it into PlayStation’s go to shooting franchise.
>>741555215the main sin of maratroon is that it's soulless, you can tell that the devs had 0 passion for this project, it was made from the start as corporate slop to check boxes to be slopped out as a minimum viable product, gamers can tell from a mile that it's soulless slop
>>741555215>saw
>>741555365what are you talking about no it isn't
>>741555365Fuck dude, I just realized the core issue with the game. Zero appeal to pathos.
>>741529757If battleborn isn’t a conchord game, then neither is marathon. All the other examples died almost instantly. Marathon has at least survived more than a week.
>>741555413+10 babel media points
>>741555346They know Marathon is done and they aren’t working on anything else because Sony told them no to every idea. I wonder if Sony will sell the IPs or shelve them when they shut Bungie down.
>>741555446That's Ubisoft, retard
>>741555471Marathon isn't done because Sony already sunk a bunch of money into it. Seethe chuddie the game's here to stay
>>741555424I'd say that's the biggest common theme with concordlikes, none of them have soul, you can tell that none of them are passion projects by developers who wanted to make something good, it stinks from a mile that they were made in a board room to ship out corporate slop that checked the boxes
>>741555507No one is playing it. Not even trannies shilling it give a enough of a shit to play it.

>>741555513I think that lack of soul is more or less just a lack of proper work ethic.
I want to be able to play offline and have solo modes, a solo campaign with campaign story DLCs, I want a solo expreience and I want to be able to play against bots.If there is none of that, then it's a no no for me.Sorry not sorry, sweaty.
>>741514534Everyone hates to say it but what made Bungie successful was the tight leash and whip by Microsoft. Every time they had to strike out on their own (post activision), or got a amazing deal (snoy) they instantly fumbled the bag bottom up.The kind on people Bungie employs can't be allowed to have any kind of artistic freedom or creativity or they'll make Marathon. They need a firm boot on their neck to function.
>>741555548you forgot to add the /s anon
Great game, great shooter, great atmosphere, very unique.Too bad its in a genre of games that are full of crybabies and PvE softskins who cant handle other people in their games. These people would've never survived the XBOX era trash talk.On top of that Extraction Shooters already has it own niches kinda set up, and people avoid it as a new experience from the word-of-mouth alone. No one likes losing, and in this genre of games you lose A LOT and often.Game also could've been cooked a bit longer with more maps i guess.
>>741555594yeah, I want to be alone with my games
>>741555554Original Marathon had soul
>>741555565hard to have any work ethic when everyone is just a leech trying to squeeze out as much money from snoy as they can, when you hire drones to make you mindless soulless slop then drones will do what drones do and eat your pantry
I think there will be actual suicides when the hammer falls on Bungie particularly from individuals in this thread. Even the players got sunsetted in the end.
>>741555548Game has legs
>>741555738Kinda looks like that new Defect game.
>>741555857>The legs in question
>>741555693It’s sad that marathon is unironically the highest quality extract fps and it’s an unfinished backburner product. Tarkov Hunt and Arc are fucking unbearable to play if you have any quality standards. Not defending the overcasualization of Marathon gameplay but at least the gameplay, middling as it is, is polished.
>>741514534>How can Bungie save Marathon?devs literally posting on /v/ asking for advice to not be firedlol, lmao even
>>741525173Cool it with the antisemitism.
>>741514534its not a good game, simple as
>>741526721Make it good then. Vocal PvP sweats are only a tiny percentage of the playerbase in all games.
>>741552538Oooooofff you really got them with this one
>>741544021rumor is a snoy exec is finally fucking them for typical bungie malfeasance which they can’t properly prove>underdelivering>excuses>burning time on wasteful work to avoid responsibility on new projects>sabotaging marathon a product snoy explicitly wanted from the buyout>clearly not having a fucking clue what to do with their creative license>playing money games with stock options>plagiarismsnoy can easily whip marathon and destiny 3 into shape if they have control and consulting from functional devs like those who helped kojima but allegedly bungies inner circle managed to enrage them
>>741557043Destiny's dead anon time to move on
>>741556470Eh, Tarkov been out for a decade and it still fucks up the fundamentals, it has lots of 'cool stuff' what sucks people in and they think it's a "deep" game.Arc Raiders is completely fucked, like, in every level. The TTK in that game is horrible and healing is useless.Hunt Showdown is like the most polished experience, the TTK is perfect and there's lots of creativity you can use. The audio in that game is the best FPS audio ever made and its not even close.
>>741557071I’ve always despised destiny and feel extreme satisfaction that it’s gone but I acknowledge that if there were still enough fanboys there’s no great reason snoy couldn’t facilitate a new efficient formula to keep ripping them off. That’s all, destinyfaggots are subhumans
>>741557043Sony straight up said Destiny was not profitable and burned countless money because it was always more expensive than it could pay off with expansions and even DLCsMarathon is a much cheaper project with a base starting price and microtransaction and Bungie is restructuring to work around just that single game.
>>741557354>Marathon is a much cheaper project with a base starting price and microtransactionBut that's part of the problemThe f2p version of Destiny 2 has 10 times the amount of content than their new $40 game
>>741550687>gaming has no trends,Why are sparklefags retarded
>>741557929And noone plays it
>>741553592Ive got a powerful message for Gwen.
