I think I just don’t understand this genre of game. You just wander around a big multiplayer map picking up items and randomly getting in gunfights. There is more gameplay variety in individual Halo missions than in the entirety of this new Marathon from what I’ve experienced.

I think the art direction is cool. The game feels good to play. It’s an interesting sci-fi world. But my first impression of the gameplay is that it’s pretty dull. I’ll try playing again later but I haven’t yet seen what would keep me coming back.
>>
look at this post everyone, this is how normalfags view the game >>558690469

we're cooked
>>
>>558690138
Wait, where do you find weapons then? In most extraction shooters you find them in containers.
>>
>>558690469
pretty sure this genre is for autists and people who like to gear up to stomp less geared up players
>>558690587
yea specific containers, fortnite shits them out, in extractions shooters they are rewards

>>
>>558690890
This is precisely something that I and I know a lot of discord server, test group whatever people echoed back at Bungie and I still don't think they really learned. Yes sure it's not going to be a game genre for everybody that was well established when it was first announced to be an extraction, but "who is this game for?" was just something a lot of people found themselves saying. No fucking chance in hell is there going to be somebody who's going to get converted and love extractions from this game, or it's going to let them seek out alternative routes by taking a slowroll more PVE enjoying side of things, you basically need to come strapped and go ape mode on people rinse repeat. More on the fence casuals will pass and I think people who even do enjoy PVP might not be totally convinced.

It was the original plan, the fat chick they long since fired quite literally was alluding to it being a your guys situation with the talk of "choosing your expression" and all that. Barrett confirmed this later on, but nope gotta push mtx skins and make limp dick aspirational stuff. The whole system was supposed to be that you were taking on different implant/modifications to be an essential class to your mostly neutral base default character. I also have seen a long since nuked leak concept art that had individualized gloves and chest armor pieces that did make it seem like there would be more of a changing of actual cosmetic.

Yes, it's actually something survival games had solved where dying reset you back to a safe location where you might have stockpiled resources and might even get to fight to get your stuff back. But in extraction shooters you are usually risking more than just some time.

Maybe I’m just too adhd or whatever. But I can’t stand these games with so much downtime where you’re just wandering around collecting stuff. I think of playing Halo or CoD or even Destiny, and some kind of engaging action is almost always happening. But this just feels like wandering around a big empty level occasionally stumbling into gameplay.
>>
>>558693643
It's not the worst shit I've ever played, but what should be obvious decisions as you could tell from complaints of UI, ingame structures that look like you could loot but are just for decoration, random, locomotion is a bit weird, low TTKs of certain stuff, easy to party people who got ripped a part by mobs, yeah it's a little sketchy.

you guys are expecting to have everything unlocked within a couple of hours, but i’m pretty sure you just need to play a little more to get some basic upgrades so that your runner isn’t complete shit.

>>558694350
there's literally no loot ANYWHERE. Not even ammo.

>>558694076
pros:
guns feel great
melee is impactful
abilities generally feel fun to use
i like the fast time to kill
music is great
sound is great

cons:
-menus are overdesigned in some places, underdesigned in others, knowing what is what at a glance is tough
-i feel like for the test they artificially capped the number of players per lobby, which they probably did to avoid people getting stomped, but if you are a semi competent player looking for pvp, you will likely feel like player encounters are a bit sparse at the moment. full game will likely not be like this (hopefully)

overall I enjoy it so far

I literally, LITERALLY cannot find guns or ammo.
The ONLY time I find any are from the corpses of other players.
There is LITERALLY NOTHING.
All I get are sell shit and garbage health/shield kits.

I run into heavily fortified buildings and I get.....??????
NOTHING.

Any item that needs to be "found in raid" as an upgrade for your hideout or for a quest in tarkov. Any good ammo (you can't put ammo in your secure container anymore) plus high value shit like a GPU

As someone who enjoyed Hunt Showdown (though that’s more an extraction shooter lite) and Tarkov, I just do not vibe with this game at all. Something feels off about it. Like every aspect of an extraction shooter has just been handled wrong. I don’t feel any tension or excitement. I’m not forming a personal attachment to my gear or weapon set ups. It feels too dead between areas. It all just feels bland. I love the art style but nothing else is gripping me with this. It also feels like PvP is incredibly sparse and I’m not sure if there are specific areas where players will converge to fight. At least in Hunt every team has th same objective so you’re very likely to clash with each other and Tarkov has designated hot spots (like Dorms) where you’re very likely to encounter other players. So far, I’ve been to each major area and had one, extremely brief fight. It’s not clicking
>>
>>558694509
>more pvp
This is what every extraction shooter player cries out for, yeah. Totally.
>>
>>558691285
>>558695563
See, Tarkov may be a janky piece of shit ran by a drunken scammer but at least it puts use to the items you find. You can use them to upgrade your hideout, you can use them for quests, you can use them to barter, and you can just sell them at auction. So far Marathon just has using items for upgrades and that’s it. Maybe that would change with the different factions but I’m not so sure. It feels like you have less to work with with the items you find at the moment
>>
>nothing worth grabbing
>kind of feels like you just exist to meander around the map until you find a team to kill for the loot they took into the raid
um... what? is this really it? why not just make this game a regular hero shooter with payload and whatever. the looting is fucking terrible
>>
>>558695630
Reminder the bungie invited a bunch of tarkov players to test marathon and when asked if theyd play it NOBODY raised their hands
>>
>>558695630
This honestly does feel like playing somebody's mod for TF2 or something, like it's not ugly to look at and there's some semblance of an idea, but like it feels like I'm jacking off walking around in a minecraft server and trying to figure out where there's any sort of thing going on.

It's a straight Destiny 2 mod, probably been mentioned a hundred times already but the gun archetypes, animations, abilities, enemy AI, behaviors, rigs and animations are all straight up ported from D2. It's very amateurish and Bungie has always been too spoiled with the Destiny community tolerating their incompetence far too much.

I solo wiped an entire squad while my team died to bots only for another team to show up to kill me (I at least got one of them). One of the normgroids on the team was saying he was having loads of fun despite the fact that contributed absolutely nothing to the team and spent 15 minutes looting. If skilled players like me aren't having fun, I really dont know what to say. The gunplay is absolutely ass. It just feels like whoever shoots first is going to auto win the fight since the TTK is stupidly low.

There's no fucking skill expression, it's just, I'M BEAMING YOU DOWN AND NOW YOU'RE GOING TO DIE I GUESS. I can only imagine how fucking awful this is going to be once controller users start taking over, just aim assisting everyone to death since you cant even stutter step to a meaningful degree.

PSA: You are not ready to take on Infiltrator Agents in solos

After 10-15 runs getting my bearings straight I built a kit for the first time. Spawn in and start slaying UESC as one does until I see a cool looking guy in a cape. Reminded me of a Psion from Destiny so you know I had to shoot him.

Ok well he has a yellow shield and HACKS you so you can do anything and can only see the very center of your screen. And whether this was a normal event or random bad luck a wave of UESC grenadiers spawned in at the same time.

I died.

It was awesome.

You can play solo, but it won't stop you from running into other teams
>>
>>558705760
the solo experience has been miserable for me, its fun in a masochistic way. Let me tell you rook only has a shitty pistol so better get lucky nearby with some gun, any gun or maybe a dead player others skipped otherwise its rather grim how outgunned you are, people are not friendly at all

Honestly? this game fucking sucks. I'm cancelling my pre-order and getting a refund. I spent the entire time looking for people and all I found was two people, both of which I got the drop on and killed instantly so there was no duel.

I feel like I need to fight this game just to play it. How the fuck did they managed to make the UI so bad on xbox is beyond me, you cannot even use the dpad to navigate it has a fucking retarded cursor screen you move around with the thumb stick like a mouse cursor. I thought this was a console game getting ported to PC not the other way around.

>>558706534
The bones of a proper FPS are literally the same engine and animations as Destiny 2. They were reusing a 10 year old engine and assets because they had no idea what they were doing, all of the talent left Bungie nearly a decade ago.

>>558706169

>>558706629
They could have easily retooled this game into something more akin to Destiny or PvE like Once Human but still keep this as PvP in a capacity.
Instead it's a bare-bones Extraction Shooter, a sub-genre of the FPS PVP Genre that is concentrated, focused on a singular type of player, super sweats. Nothing wrong with that, mind you but it's odd they chose this as a new IP when Destiny 2 is failing hard.
What I'm trying to say is, is for a new IP from Bungie making it an Extraction Shooter of all else from a company known for Single-Player games with PvP this feels like it's going in the wrong direction.
And because there's no real meat to the game due to PvP, overall, being extremely bare bones - no story, or interests, just a one-off about a hero you play as and a map that looks pretty for the first few matches it kills a large portion of gamers because you get bored of its repetition far more you would something else.

All we can hope is that this game kills Bungie completely.

I can only say this, the game plays good when it comes to shooting but worse than bad, this feels boring at times. People are not using comms at all

make ammo free with the gun when you load in

maps feel huge because you can barely find anyone
quests are dumb

I don't think they're even a good source of money, I don't get it either, they're usually NEETs who can invest a lot into this, not people with disposable income

>>558708237
I don't understand the point of rook when you can just load in with a free sponsored kit that has a better gun, healing items, and the shell you're more used to using. The rook skills don't seem nearly enough to warrant forcing 1v3 with a worse gun and spawning in halfway through a raid

they really fucked up
its such a shame as well because this game has the best aesthetic I've ever seen in a game, the way it blends ascii / retro tech art with modernism and futurism is exactly my niche as a 90s kid who loved techno-industrial retro-futuristic films and art in vidya

Rook has the benefit of putting you in half-empty lobbies, if you're lucky there'll be only one team left and they'll already be planning to leave. Going in with a normal runner and a free kit means contending with a full lobby while having no shield and a shit gun, depending on the kit

You spawn in later in the game. Teams only spawn at the start, so most of the teams will already be dead when you spawn in, so you can scavenge without as much of a threat. If you want to interact with teams its probably best to try to talk to them at least, unless you think you can 1v3

>>558710086
yes, there's no incentive to be friendly to random solo players. only streamers and / or teams. think about it logically

why would I be friendly with a random solo I can get the jump on? its not in my interests

however, if I recognise that solo player, if its a streamer, I might be inclined to be friendly, especially if I know they're good, but even then, if I get the chance to wipe them out I will

the only time I 100% won't is if I come across a team and I have no way to. then I'll be friendly, because me being friendly with them makes it more likely that they'll help me even if its not assured. so its more likely that I'll get a good outcome from being friendly with a group, and less likely that I'll get a good outcome from being friendly with a solo

its simple logic

As a PvE player I'm enjoying this game a lot, love it so god damn much.
Love the quests, the atmosphere, the gameplay loop, everything but there is a glaring problem and I'd like to get a sound off if I'm in the right or wrong because almost my entire gaming library and what I usually play are PvE games.
This is my first extraction shooter and I thought I was going to dislike it but I'm not, however, from watching countless videos and streams of Arc Raiders and Tarkov I see the problem with this game and it's why I'm getting so bored.

So, I know, the game is set on an abandoned planet from a destroyed colony but it just doesn't feel lived in like Arc Raiders or Tarkov and I'm not even talking about humans, just... alive?
Like in the other extraction shooters Ive seen there's enemy factions shooting each other, there's patrols, there's something as basic as a robot in Arc Raiders doing things that make it look like it has a job
This though? The UESC drop down like their from Reboot with incoming game and all they do is briefly patrol a area with large structures and then disappear/despawn. You might come across one area where there are little explode bugs but you know they're always going to be there where as in other extraction shooters theres more patrols things doing things
I can't explain it real well and I'm sorry; I rarely come to /vg/, let alone 4chan anymore but I did want to get this frustration out somewhere. Sorry for the intrusion
Also I still haven't figured out what to do with these locked doors. I can buy a key but I cant use it and no one I've come across in game be it text or voice know how to unlock them either - also keep coming across old Marathon Terminals I can't do anything with either.
>>
>>558696257
are you getting aim assisted
>>
>>558716549
The terminals are just easter eggs I think. As for the keys same, unable to open any locked door. I really like the setting, aesthetics, the intro cutscene but the gameplay has let me down
>>
>>558716549
I'm no lore andy so maybe someone can extrapolate further than I can
But the feeling of the planet not being 'lived in' maybe makes sense when you understand why we've arrived to Tau Ceti 4. We are brand new to the planet and the fact is, the planet isn't lived in at all, we've only just arrived and now competing for resources between the factions.

I don't know how this ties in to what you are referring to about patrols or explode bugs, would more patrols make it feel more lived in for you?

>>558717836
Yeah absolutely.
And yes, the entire concept of the story behind the game is that Tau Ceti was going to be a new Earth and Marathon travelled hundreds of years to get there
All the Colonists disappeared and from the two ARGS that are semi-canon/non-canon it looks like they've been digitized like in Tron by an AI called Joy. Still though the idea is that the UESC are protecting Tau Ceti so having patrols and more bugs going around might make it feel more lived in.

I'm done.

After 3 consecutive failed runs on a rook I am done. It doesn't matter if you have no gear to lose on a rook; you're still wasting your time.

Thanks to the TTK, I'm dead before I even know what's happening. You can say I'm bad at the game and that's probably true but at the end of the day, I'm not having fun.

Marathon arrived and then for 50 to 100 years they settled but then from the eight minute movie all hell broke loose. Most people into the story are thinking that the alien enemies that attacked Marathon in the first three games (the ones from the 90s) were still on the ship in a capacity.
If you or anyone else is interested in any way this video is probably the easiest and shortest (not joking when 18mins is probably the shortest youll get) for large brush strokes of what tf is happening in Marathon

There is nothing else to do.

>>558718709
There is no point in playing rook, its a bait class.
You start the game midmatch so you have no time to loot and places are too big and the spawnpoints change too frequently.

You're better off always picking the class option and getting the free weapons giveaway and utilizing their skills, you'll go MUCH further.

There is literally zero point to rook.

>>558718990
>There is literally zero point to rook.
Yeah it's really odd that he starts halfway through the match and also isn't allowed to do contracts, when you can just use a free kit with a real class with no downside.

alri lads
josh from brit/pol/ here
the notorious reshade demaker / pixellator spasmoid from multiple generals
my verdict?
extremely cool concept, extremely cool aesthetic
the tutorial was fun, but the only really fun thing about it was the aesthetic
gear is boring, combat is boring, movement feels clunky. the double jump / sprint cooldowns feel awful
it feels like they've tried to artficially slow the game down to a crawl because of the lack of actual content
and thats why they've put so much effort into aesthetic too
like once they establish the aesthetic and put their all into that they only have you give you minimal content
but there's literally nothing to do
even with seasonal unlocks and stuff like that, the content will be minimal
so idgi
I feel like this game could've been the destiny killer if they made it pve bounty / objective focused with a storyline instead of just a boring treasure hunt
basically this feels like a game I'll pop in to play every now and again just to see whats new but will probably quit after a couple of days
kinda want a refund for the pre-purchase already as well I'm ngl
they could have cooked with this but its about as bland as the brit/pol/ polish paedophile's dog food tier scrannage

Yeah it makes no sense, it shows they just have no idea what to do and tossing shit at the wall seeing if anything sticks.

Its crazy how this is the sort of shit you expect out of some indie company, with glaring design flaws where you just make an entire class pointless because not only can you already be provided a free kit but ALSO have an actuall class with ACTUAL good abilities.

Funny enough, the Assassin class is simply overall a much better rook, Rooks "blend" ability is dogshit and you're better off just going invisible with Assassin and all the extra perks he gets on top of it.

The game is also simply poorly designed as a solo game, but I don't care to party up with randos either.
Such a shitty designed game.

Honestly, if the game was free I could see the potential. They could definitely have most of the kinks ironed out in a few months. Unfortunately with a $40 price tag the game will be dead on arrival and they will announce end of service this year.

Been playing for a bit and one thing I think the game needs is a quicker way to return after a failed run. I just spawned, lost a fight with a vandal and now thats another 5 mins to get back into a game. Maybe a redeploy function with a sponsor kit would be better.

One thing that really bugs me is that they delayed it for almost an entire year didn't they?
And they even had content creators come in and even fight for small changes so it felt more like Tarkov (at the time in earlier private testing) and then Arc Raiders (more recent private testing) and they still had to fight tooth and nail to get certain things because Bungie didn't want to do it.
I know my opinion is moot in the sense I only ever, usually play PvE games but my god they couldn't even get an Extraction Shooter right
Bungies known for their single-player games WITH PvP or Co-Op games like Destiny WITH PvP but for fucks sake its like I'm playing Gambit from Destiny but with a few new bells and whistles

I am curious to see what the majority of players feel and especially the normie and casual players because those are the people, the 9 to 5 players who will keep this game afloat and not a niche sweatlord community in the thousands.

Doesn't arc raiders have a cool looking bunker people get into?

I also hate that once people exfil the thing disappears and reappears in a totally new area, like the fuck???
I mean, I guess it stops people from camping it sort of by teleporting across the map but still, feels shit.

>>558721407
>And they even had content creators come in and even fight for small changes so it felt more like Tarkov
I mean, that is probably why Rook is pointless, content creators demanded a scav like player and so they half assedly put one in the game despite not making any sort of sense.

They also caved into making a solo mode, but its obvious that the AI was designed against trios, given how much damage they do and how much they spawn.

Also contracts?
It makes no sense to me, if I'm playing in trios why would my other 2 teammates follow me around to shit areas just to help me complete a questline where there is no benefit to them?

Because it's an extraction shooter, every extraction shooter has proximity chat. That's how you get those sketchy alliances and fun interactions.
>>
>>558722835
>arc raiders bunker
I think this is what makes the extraction most interesting, there's an actual obstacle to fight around, defend yourself around. It makes for some crazy fun moments and very close calls getting in just before the doors shut.

But it's also not the only means of extraction, there are then other methods of extracting if you have the key etc etc

Meanwhile exfil is just fish in a barrel and pray
>>

Arc raiders has a few different extract locations that feel pretty unique, and even make sense lore-wise

arc was roundly lauded out of the gate and the single round i played in the server slam was outrageously funny even if i never touched it again because picking up trash out of boxes is a fucking stupid thing for any game to be centered about. first dude i saw waved at me and i waved back and said hello and we faffed around in close proximity for a little bit before i went outside and foolishly tried to fuck around with a giant quadruped bot with another dude foolishly trying to intervene to help me and we both died and it was a raucous blast and then i uninstalled it

here i completed a contract or whatever and hopped down from a walkway and immediately got blasted by some niggerfaggot assassin retard after tussling around with the roblox bots prior which i actually found reasonably fun for all of the thirty seconds or so i was engaged with them (survived the earlier tutorial without issue btw yay me)

that the response is so abjectly mixed and tending towards the poor spells frank doom for it and bungo and good goddamn riddance i hope sony bites their head off and digests and shits them out in a big bone-strewn roping log from its crushing bowels what a joke holy fucking clutterfuck ui/ux and 0.565432342s ttk good lord

Not gonna lie, this just seems like a worse arc raiders in so many ways.

The AI enemies are better in arc raiders, they are genuinely cool looking and behave and act and look COMPLETELY different to other players, it feels like you're scavenging a dead planet filled with odd machines and competing with humans.
This feels like fighting generic bots, and then generic bot players, I genuinely can't tell if I'm fighting another player or a bot half the time.

The maps look better in arc, they look dusty and lived in, scraps everywhere it looks genuinely abandoned.
Marathon feels blocky and too polished, too "clean" makes it look generic especially when you're scavenging some clean looking rooms, it all lacks environmental story telling there is just nothing to look at or be fascinated by.

Lots of pointless loot, hey you unlocked core piece of some other class, who fucking cares?
90% of what you loot are shitty health and shield packs WHICH YOU CAN'T KEEP so you're always low on them every fucking run.

Exfil looks like shit.
Shitty tower you sit in a circler until arbitrary countdown hits.
While Arc raiders has unique exfils that look cool and are varied and its not just "sit in circle"

Holy shit, game just has so many flaws, how is this going to be a competitor to arc raiders???
This feels like it should have been a free game with a battle pass that provides cosmetics.

Dude it's Bungie. It takes them 3 years to add 1 PVP map to Destiny 2, back when it was popular. You're waiting 5 years, minimum, if they even exist.

I don't get menu complaints, there's like 3 options and they're all pretty obvious. gameplay is kind of mediocre. I never have any fucking ammo so I just waltz across the map and hope to find some (I don't) while not getting murdered. extracting is pretty cancer to, someone is ALWAYS waiting for you. I've given up on trying to get out first and just park my ass on an extract and let someone else activate it. playing with randos is also cancer, no one uses their mic and everyone has different objectives and leave as soon as they're done theirs

this game is like if someone took borderlands, forced you into co-op, added hostile players, and deleted all of your gear every other run. basically ruins any sort of pacing for the story segments and you don't give a shit about the loot since you're not going to keep it anyways. oh also instead of blastig through zones you're doing 1 engage and then running around like a hobo because no ammo / meds

This is my main problem really; I've 1v3'd 3 squads total now so it isnt as detrimental as other games can be in that regard, but having two dead weights makes things a lot harder than they need to be
>Triages not droning you
>Assassins just going invis and running into the open
>Destroyers not even using any of their abilities
>Recons not even looking at the enemy when they use their ult and just scanning nothing
This combined with shit like them stomping around in the open, shooting any UESC in sight and not staying in cover just means it's less a matter of do I need to 1v3 and more "how long until I have to 1v3"

if they actually want this game to succeed with a wide audience they need to delete all the gameplay components tied to the extraction aspects. that means guns, abilities, ammo, meds. when people lose those things they lose the ability to play the game the way it was intended to be played. you can do the seasonal reset shit with unlockables via mats so people are just competing over those. that makes any loss merely a slowdown or halting of progress rather than what is currently experienced which is a regressio
>muh stakes
wide audiences don't do well with stakes, this isn't tarkov with a budget of 1m and 50 playerbase, bungie needs to maintain significant concurrent paying players to survive

The game's fun if you're into extraction shooters or like PvE. Really my main criticisms atm is that there's a lot of busywork with menus and reading what different items and implants do, which it'd be fine if runs didn't last 5-10 minutes I've been downing 2-3 runners on average every game in both solo's and team fill, so maybe it might just be fun for me cause I've been lucky or better than who I'm getting matched against.

I think where I’m lost is this was a project long in the making and if we’re going off olden leaks of D2, talking like late 2019ish-2020 people were saying “saw something that looks like a PvPvE gambit mode” , I mean the bones aren’t the worst, I’ve had some fun farting around, the itemization is pretty decent as you start questing(though ammo gets tight) and it’s easy to get back in the fight if you’re totally blown out, but this just feels like a painfully ordinary game for the times. I was actually expecting infinitely more shameless fuckery and for the bit I’ve played the couple of earnable cosmetics are nice but obviously a solid color skin and stickers is whatever. I still return back to a feeling I felt in the testing and it’s “who is this game going to be for?” I don’t see sweats sticking around because seldom like this kind of questing and you can’t really go too min/max with how flimsy stuff can be if you die, and casuals are going to be discouraged when they’re constantly outplayed and need to win fights in contested zones. I just dunno. Fucking CoD had DMZ for free and while it had issues, it still was something to do.

I don't really see the point of this game, more hardcore players will just stick to tarkov and I guess arc is for the more casuals. The actual gunplay in marathon is just average at best, but the movement is too slow. The ui is fucking awful, all the items just kinda look generic and blend together, so I really have no clue what does what, the mods for guns are useless, and mods in general that aren't just stat increases are stupidity situational. I don't feel like fighting the bots is even worth it since they drain your ammo for no payout, the fucking scavs in tarkov at least have a chance for you to find something good or maybe a better backpack/rig. Some of the abilities seem to have a few seconds before they actually activate when you hit their respective key bind, so you just end up dying with the low ttk before you get anything off. I'm not a fan of the graphics, its got this Roblox-meets-starfield with a splash of paint soulless vibe to it.

I get these games usually have you looking at a CRPG’s worth of shit on your person but the icons and ui stuff needs some color coordination or something better for how samey stuff will look but it’s for something completely different in a slot , god bless any weirdos on console playing this because it’s gotta be a clusterfuck moving stuff around and trying to quickly read if sitting from afar

Contracts were a fucking mistake.
All I'm doing is pursuing contracts so I can unlock shit to finally make the game fun, but I can't ever complete them because faggots are always camping those areas.

So its just trial and error, an unlocking system that requires you to do pve missions while people camp them is so fucking stupid.

1. He's smart and knows Arc Raiders won't be around forever and has to start conditioning his viewers to watch other games

2. He wants to enjoy an FPS game again after spamming a TPS game for months.

3. Bungie gave him a huge bag of money to do a private beta with the fucking game director in his squad. He probably feels some sort of obligation to them due to his humble roots.

It never feels like I have a fair duel with a team, it's always me cheesing them or them cheesing me with a cheeky flank. They/me also just die instantly the moment they start shooting due to the ridiculous TTK.

I'm sure it gets better the more valuable your gear, but I don't want to stick around to find out. The gameplay loop is simply not for me. It feels like I spent 10 minutes looting literal garbage (to afford 1/4 of a decent kit) just to die to some guy who saw us getting attacked by AI.

I have 250 hours in Arc Raiders but you can actually deploy barriers and not explode in half a second. Marathon feels like the worst of extraction raiders, nothing good or fun about this gameplay.

Its always about sneaking up or getting the drop on someone or bull rushing them so hard and fast they don't know what to do in these kind of games and when moving about the map just look for doors that have been left open if they have been odds are you're coming up on someone or you passed them not to long ago its crazy how people don't catch environmental clues and complain
