First for big chungus
ignore the trollsjust have a blast and then get ready to consume next blast
>>566531057gay zone warfare really fell off
>>566531417It's doing better than Marathon, even after 2 years. It's making more money too.
>>566531207I'm blastin
>>566531596And yet nobody has any idea what it is in the wider gaming space, and it has zero cultural staying power in the extraction shooter space. Curious.
>>566532159But enough about Marathon

>>566531207this, can't wait for fairgame$
Did they add a pve mode yet or....

>bungie "years of content ahead for marathon">sony: bungie lost us nearly 1b but we'll continue supporting them anywaysAm i reading this right that Sony is scared to death of another concord situation so they'll keep bungie on life support forever? Might end up being more expensive than several concords at this rate
>>566532269>>566532295I don't see you in the Gay Zone Warfare thread. Oh... Wait...
>>566532732no they just admitted to overpaying for bungie
>>566532893There's no CoD thread either, and it's one of the biggest games on the planet.
>>566532732Shutting the game down now is a humiliation in itself, even if it is obvious it will never make a profit. The real question is how long it takes for marathon to fade into being so obscure that no one even notices it got shut down
>>566532945That's not the exonerating evidence you think it is
>>566532893There is no counter strike thread and it is the most popular game on steam. Keep running on those fumes runner!
>>566533074It is
>>566533126CS is on /vm/
actually so is call of duty
>>566533126>>>/vm/>>566533132It's not, your game is so forgettable that no one would even populate a general for it so you come and seethe in the general of a game with enough artistic style and flair that it has the rest of the gaming ecosystem gnashing its teeth one way or another. Marathon is just better!
How are we holding on xisters?
>>566533392>Marathon is just better!Why is it the least populated and least profitable extraction shooter if it's so good?
>Sir, another impairment loss has hit Bungie.
>>566533571>Marathon players are smallTrue
>>566533472Profit is not a function of quality, just how well a product can appeal to the LCD. If you want slop, go to a trough.
>Decide to finally cash in my first ever locked room key>A power fluctuation bypasses my UPS and shuts down my PC
>>566533905>Profit is not a function of qualityIt definitely is, you're coping. Especially when there's heavy marketing and shilling. Marathon got that, and still failed because it's bad.
Is their Discord ok after the hacker known as Anonymous doxed their users? I don't want to be alone
>>566533990>Living in a third world countrySkill issue
>>566532940The numbers basically don't matter, and accountability is optional
>>566534072>Thunderstorms down exist in the US, Canade, Europe, and Japan
>>566534179In the brown parts, yes.
>>566534179>he doesn't know we can control our weather
>>566534005Obviously not, I get it, someone who relies on CoD of all games to back up their claims that their middling jungle shooter is actually a quality game probably doesn't understand much outside of 'more sell = more gooder'.
this is a Matt Piscatella board now
>>566534478You brought up that a 4chan thread needs to exist for a game to be a success, you're a retard. Quality games always sell, shit games do not. That's why Marathon flopped, it's bad.
400k DISCORD USERSCHUDS TOTALLY OBLITERATED
The team is jamming on night marsh, it will save the game.
>Quality games always sell
>my entire team dies in cryo leaving me alone to 1v3>I somehow manage to kill 2 with grenades and win the 1v1>get all the good stuff first before rezzing my teammatesIs this greed or justified vros?
>>566534730I brought up that you're bitching about a game you don't play because the game you do like is dogshit and couldn't sustain its own general. Marathon is fine, it's getting more content, it's one of the most recognizable IPs now, your game amounts to nothing and no one will mourn its passing. The idea that sales is equivalent to quality is absurd, the entire genre of 'cult classics' and hidden gems gives proof to that. Marathon is niche in a niche genre, with a strong art direction, it was never going to sell to a legion of chudlings.
>>566535147justified
>>566535147Justified those fucking goblins would have stolen everything despite only being floor decor
>>566532732No. Sony doesn't know what to fucking do with Bungie. They're losing money every month. An anthem ending where they don't do any real dev and just let the thing run for a year or two is a possibility, but you aren't guaranteed that. Especially as they have other extraction shooters to promote in the pipeline. Because they have some hardcore players, they're going to want to give them an offramp. A "go play this game" thing. But you are promised nothing but the next season for now.
>>566535578I highly doubt they think they can translate Marathon players into Fairgames players, that game is an actual Concord-like. If it came down to "who gets to be our Sony extraction shooter" Marathon is obviously the top contender.
>>566535578The free to play pivot is still on the cards and would at least make Marathon as attractive as Delta Force is until the Fairgames exit ramp is created.
>>566536018Fairgames premise and main vibe is cringe as fuck, it's gonna flop hard.
>>566535946Apparently, ~400 people are working on Marathon, so there is enough people to think about both issues.
>>566537906>400 people working on an AAA salary for 15k daily peaksbrutal
Checkout my command wing loot.
>>566538156I'd argue that its still more useful than that one thief core that hacks and knocks an item from backpack on knife stab after grapple.
>>566536862>I sent bungie a kindly worded email telling them the game was great (no reply) but I hope someone at least read it.
>>566536862Why are you posting a ResetEra post from over a month ago?
I will revive my teammates, no matter what.
>Console UI
>>566538156This was my first time in Command Wing, btw. I didn't know what I was doing, so I ended up collecting very little. I need more derma/neurochem, dammit.
>bungie wants marathon to be seen as hardcore >the extreme aim assist doesn't even make me question if i could've done anything differently, it just makes me mad that my shots didn't lock-on as hard as my opponent's>this is hardcore
>>566539164Back to solo now, to effortlessly stomp purple gear. Because I'm just better.
>>566539592>doesn't even make me question if i could've done anything differentlyYou died = you did something wrong. Simple as.
I have a solution for PvE. Servers with runner to runner damage disabled.
>>566539592I win all the time as a pc player wdym vro
>>566540090>Servers with runner to runner damage disabled.All bad players will go there, standard mode will turn into ranked mode. I'll still win, but I like punching down too.
>Losing to Destiny 2
>as a PC player
>>566540184>destiny 2>has PvE>has PvP>has shitton of contentNo wonder.
Marathon is extremely based for having no PvE AND no SBMM
