>>731137674looks like they forgot to texture the game kek
>>731137674Guys… im finding it really hard to hate this game right now. Where do we go from here?
>>731137674Can't wait! Gonna have a blast™
>>731137875So true, saar! It are going be massive success!
>>731137875Is there ANYTHING redeeming about it? Why would you play this instead of any other game?
>>731137674It actually looks kind of good though.

>>731137674IT’S SHIT
Would have looked cool except I already know it's a mediocre extraction shooter so who gives a fuck.
It unequivocally fucked.ARC Raiders ate their lunch on the mass appeal chill game angle.Which is almost a non-issue because they somehow made a game that's more frustrating to progress than Tarkov.It's almost artistic how they contorted themselves into this hole.t. two time playtester
And the crowd goes mild...Yawn.
>>731137875hello babylon sir! 5 ruppeee deposited int our punjab national bank account. thank sirs
>>731137674>https://streamable.com/ahh4d3>Looks nothing like the original Marathon>Shows a "membah this guy?!" at the end to hype the retardsIt's so fucking tiring.
>>731137674this shit looks horrible lmao
>>731137859And make yet another photorealistic game that is outdated in 2 years?It's always preferrable to have your game look different from everybody else's
>>731137859Do you want your games optimized or not? This will run at 200 fps on a 5 year old gpu because it's from bungie and you people will still be bitching about UE5 when you have optimized games right in front of you to play.
>futuristic robot "runners">still take normal fall damage and move like a slow humanyeah fuck off
>>731138445>look differenthahahaha it doesn't even have a look, they couldn't be bothered to make a fucking UI hahahahahahaha
don't mind me, just stealing someone elses art
just gonna make profit off someone elses art stylemarathon so unique gusy!!!
>>731138531kys bungie shill, make a better game next time and stop plagiarising art, this shit is DoA.
>>731138576>>731138624>>731138670akshually ma'am they removed thisplease understanddo the needful!!!!!
>>731137674>Is it F2P?Light flop>Will it cost money?Mega fucking slop flop followed by lay offs.
I feel like we might as well give it a try. Every other game hated by this board has ended up being a blast. What do you think?
>that blocky Roblox lookWho needs a design when you can just make shit in Roblox and call it art-direction. These Lego guns is something I'd come up with at 9 years old with my 3 boxes of Lego.
>>731138576What do you mean it "doesn't have a look"?What other games in the shooter genre exist that look like this? Name a few
>>731137674Have they retooled it into a singleplayer/coop linear shooter with zero rpg scaling bullshit?If not I don't want it.
>>731138670>>731138624This was what, a year ago?Do you still think after the PR disaster that they wouldn't scrub off every stolen asset?
>>731137674>preorder now
>>731137674Does it have to?
>>731138917>Apex>Concord>Cyberpunk>Ghostrunner>Mirrors Edge>The FinalsInb4 "none of those count!!!!!" hahahaha
Should've just made destiny 3 instead of extraction slop.
>>731139253Bungie are hacks. What would Destiny 3 do that wouldn't just DLC for Destiny 2?
>>731137674this looks like minecraft halo wtf
>>731138750snoys are able to play F2P games without PS+ subscription, that's why Marathon (and every other online game from Sony) has to cost something in order to force people to pay for subscription
>>731138670>ALL ARTISTS ARE TRANNIES AI WILL REPLACE YOU ACK AND DILATE ACK AND DILATE>what game I dont like stole some art?>guys we have to protect artists this is not ok
>>731137674Can’t wait to feel empowered xisters!!
>>731139887It has nothing to do with SONY and everything to do with Bungie being a bunch of greedy fucking niggers. Look at how they monetized and milked every last drop out of Destiny.
>>731138750I think it will be seventy euros, they are delusional.
can't wait for months of whining from shitters crying that they got killed in an extraction shooter
>>731140026 if it was up to Bungie, they would've made it Free2Try and filled it to the brim with microtransactions and battle passesmaking the base game cost money is counter-productive if you want to shekelmax, but Sony prioritizes subscriptions instead
>>731139934Both are true. I agree with you.
I don't understand how normalfags decide which new slopshooter "looks bad", it all looks like the same shit to meAnyway hope it flops
>>731140026>It has nothing to do with the company that has been chasing the GAAS scheme but with an entry fee for the last decade!
>>731140791Except Bungie will make you pay for the game + include battle passes, mtx, and other ways to maximize profits.>>731141025They did it with Destiny and SONY had nothing to do with that game, you mouthbreathing nigger.
>>731137674>MarathonI thought that was one of those big AAA SciFi shooters that flopped hard? Is it really not even out yet? I guess I'm getting it confused with that hunk of shit called Anthems or whatever that you could tell was gonna be a 100 million dollar down the drain stinker in the first 10 seconds of the first trailer. I really wonder if this will be the nail in the coffin for bungee, I bet this was expensive and there is a zero percent chance this does anything but lose millions of dollars. It looks exactly like every single other AAA SciFi floptrash.
>>731137674slop skip jump
>>731137674why would i pay money for this slop when fate trigger comes out around the same time, feb/march, is free and has good looking waifus
>>731141547>no mention of gameplayof course
>>731140625No one will be whining because no one will be playing this crap, lmao
>>731137674Lmao games dead in arrival. Smack dab released in the middle of better releases
>>731141608im asking you why i should play this instead of FT you fucking porch monkey
>>731137674I like the art style looks really cool. Though it's extraction slop not sure if I like that genre.
>>731141608That game and the anime game looks like shit cope
>>731137859It's graphically better looking than Arc.Art style is subjective. >>731137937It is deeper than Arc in gameplay and has more shit to do. >>731138136Arc is super casual and the quests are nothing more than collect light bulb or go to new area for the first time. Marathon has actual "story" quests that actually push a narrative and have you actually do things on the map as if it were a single player campaign. Played the last two tests. It isn't for everyone though and by that I mean casuals. It is closer to Tarkov in difficulty. >>731138670One dei hire stole two decals. No one cares but the terminally online mentally ill.
>>731137859>looks like they forgot to texture the game kek>these are the people who play video games nowThis entire hobby is doomed.
>>731137674Looks like shitPut it in a pile with the other Concord-likes
>>731141721It's DoA anon. Cope. It's getting overshadowed by other AA and AAA games throughout the end of February through March and April. It's over for Bungie
>>731141897>It's over for Bungienah, think many people will check it out because Bungie are still the kings of gunplay.
>>731141721You put more effort into this post than the developers put into the video game. You sound like this guy:>>731140021
Why did they make the game ugly on purpose? Who does the hideous artstyle appeal to?
>>731142131leftists
>>731142131To the elusive modern audience (they will not buy it).
>>731142131You know why
>>731138531you are a fucking moron and should never again speak again about technical subjects you are completely clueless about
>>731137674This trailer is so misleading an does nothing to explain what type of game this is
>>731142131literally every person that like SCIFI>>731142154>>731142234How is that art style related to trannies you fucking newfags? LMAO?
>Actual marathon shillsHoly shit lmao
>>731142154bro not even they are interested in this shit, nobody is
hope bungie gets mercy killed after this
>>731137875I played the beta, the game is mediocre. It'll find an audience but the game will flop. It gets a large amount of hate because it's bungie, but if anyone else made the game it would be even more DOA.
How do you actually end up stealing someone's art 1 for 1 and putting it into a game though? You would have thought all the artists would have cared loads about that and anyone with a brain would know about IP/Copyright. Just seems insane.
>>731138531>will run at 200 fps on a 5 year old gpuLMAOOOOOOOOhttps://www.reddit.com/r/Marathon/comments/1k8ywzg/so_hows_the_marathon_performances_so_far/>55 fps Amd 6700xt>90 fps mixed settings 4070 super ($500 GPU equivalent to RTX 5070)>50 fps 3060 ti 1080p lowest>80 fps 3080 @ 835p
>>731142305Of course not, leftists never buy games. That's why all games made for the modern audience fail
>>731142117is the gunplay with us in the room right now? seriously this shit keeps getting parroted but nobody has the answer to what makes their gunplay even as good as modern AAA?
>>731137674RE9 like 2 days before this slop drops. Then you got Crimson Desert like 2 weeks later. Why should I get this multiplayer slop over single player kino?
>>731141721>>731142117It is sluggish, slow, ugly looking crap. These types of safe, no risk taken 150 million dollar budget crapfest shooters are a dime a dozen right now. This game is in the same league as Anthem. It will come out, be a slow, meandering, nothing new, boring, do nothing console shooter, the same as all the rest, it will flop, the servers will shut down in 6-12 months, and Bungee will have mass layoffs or some other type of corporate meddling from Sony to keep them on life support. Look at the trailer again. This is the fate of the game, you can see it not 30 seconds into the trailer. Sorry.
>>731142402You simply steal it cause it's easy and fast, and hope no one notices
>>731142281>literally every person that like SCIFII love sci fiMarathon looks like some Chinese Mirror's Edge knock off
>>731142281>Please give me the answer to this question>Receives the answer>No no the ACTUAL answerRetard
>>731142457There is an audience for these kind of games on steam, currently they are playing arc raiders.
>>731142454It felt exactly like destiny in the playtests. There's nothing novel about it, it's good but you've played it before. That's the actual truth and anyone trying to sell you the game on the core mechanics level is really grasping at straws, what will actually make or break the game is the lore and gameplay loop.
>>731142131It's to send a message
>no one is talking about the halo tie in
>>731142454>what makes their gunplay even as good as modern AAA?What does that mean? Bungie just knows how to design guns they feel satisfying to use, even in Destiny 2 almost all guns are fun to use.>>731142490I liked Anthem, sadly it got killed over the other Bioware tranny shit games. If EA gave them more time, it would have been a really good game.>>731142512>>731142510you can't just call everything you dislike tranny, you fucking /qa/ morons.
>>731142496These are shit too but they've taken the effort to make small changes (whether or not that's legally acceptable I don't know) but some of the marathon decals are identical
I don't really follow live service game, didn't Destiny just lose like its entire player base cause it's so shit?
>>731142117Players feedback from last years closed beta wasn't so optimistic.
>>731142454Its people glazing Destiny forgetting that the bones of Destiny's gunplay were built by old Bungie.
I wish we had the IP counter back, I hate paid shills so much
>>731142656>I liked Anthem
>>731142770it was actually fun, yea the bullet sponge difficulty sucked though and like I said it needed more content, but the game flopped primarily because poorfags couldn't run it.
Looking forward to the game defying expectations and being a moderate success while /v/ loses its fucking mind once again.
>>731137674the nortubel of bungie
>>731142840it will happen because bungie and destiny 2 are still popular among normies on consoles who will buy anything bungie puts out without thinking. The general public isn't terminally online like the losers here
731142656well now we know you're baitingretard
How come back in the day Bungie could make a deep single player campaign and a deep multiplayer element with lots of modes and maps and content and now they can't even create a game that is just multiplayer with barely any content?
>>731142840So true xister yaas queen
>>731142905Marathon is exactly the opposite game their Destiny supporters like. Destiny players whine and complain about every PVP component they will no way play a game that if you die you lose all your progress when they can't handle invaders in Gambit
>>731138136pretty much, they might have a long shot if they add the autorotation aimbot from the beta back in, otherwise it's already over
>>731142980they complain about pvp because it hasn't been updated in so long and they want more content. They've been begging for dedicated servers forever which marathon has. if you're going to make claims at least attempt to be factual with them
>>731142839>I liked Anthem>But it sucked mechanically and didn't have any contentI take it back, you might actually like Marathon. It's going to suck the same way but with uglier graphics. Have fun
>minimalist, clip art corporate-esque artstyleWho the fuck thought it looks good?
>>731143051I didn't suck mechanically the flying the overall movement and the gunplay was fucking great.
>>731142905Are they though? This was the case at the beginning of the games life but it seems like the only people still playing are more invested than a "normie". The real question is how many of those people will bounce right off marathon given the genre shift. Even if they can hook people narratively it's a very different game.
extraction shooters are assyou designed a bad game if people go out of their way to avoid the PvP element just so they can play PvE, see: Arc Raidersbut a lot of bots push that game
>>731143047They complain because they hate PVP period. That portion of the playerbase is dying and can be see when they do trials and it's all sweats. Their content is PVE focused mainly because they know the community wants that. The community is so bad they support the garbage way in game communication is handled because conflict terrifies them
>>731143207reddit is not the general community, you need to go back
>>731143290>my anecdotal evidence is correct but your anecdotal evidence is redditSure.
This won't do as well as Arc Raiders because i t won't placate carebear lobbies but I wouldn't be surprised if no-life grinders have more fun with it because of the PVP
>>731143102What do you mean? Corporate Memphis is all the rage right now with all the transgender leftists game developers in a 3 block section of downtown Seattle. Surely every single person in the USA loves it and wants a soulless 250 million dollar shooter with the same art style.
>>731143290This is not just reddit this is everywhere retard. The numbers do not lie. Trials is a perfect example of this. Gambit was another with the invader and how that kept getting nerfed and changed
>>731143102>>731143394Exclusive leaked image of the main antagonist of Marathon
>>731143203>>731143290you both severely underestimate how bitchmade the average shooter player is these days due to years of being coddled in SBMM games
Maraflop
looks like raytraced minecraft lmao
The mentally ill from being terminally online are seething.
you don't have to be terminally online to recognize a shit game bro
>>731143963Well they are mad marathon is going to be another concord.
Buying Arc Raiders and trying this game's alpha just showed me that I'm done with multiplayer shooters. Meanwhile my friend somehow has 500 hours of collecting scrap and running free kits in the former. I don't get it.
>>731144173>Buying Arc Raiders and trying this game's alpha just showed me that I'm done with multiplayer shooters.explain
>>731144173filtered hard
>>731144173
>>731137674Looks like shit
>>731138853>>731139475>>731141830>>731142490>>731142510>>731143102>>731143619Cope. It looks better than Arc.
>>731142410>Nigga..W H A T
>>731144352was this supposed to be a good image?
I just pre ordered. dropped 50 hours in the last couple betas. game is kino.
>>731144352
>>731142390What did you find mediocre about it?
All these retards and chuds shitting on this game have to understand something. This is a live service game. It may start out bump but after a couple of months will blossom into something special. You have to remember......this isn't a sprint.....it's a Marathon.
>>731137674Looks worse than Crysis and requires 5090 with framegen baby!
>>731144352Pic unrelated right? Because that's the opposite of what you said.
>>731144352is this a survival crafting game or what?
>>731144352Skybox is nice. However, anyone can make a nice skyboxRest is garbage
>>731144485so go play crysis lol
>>731138670I wish they'd just shown the string of characters as stolen since it's obvious. the artist also trying to claim they invented stacked chevrons or whatever though sours me so much that I wish the faggot had lost the entire stolen art claim instead.
>>731144497go to bed, unc.
>>731144485>5090 with framegenYeah but at least that way you'll get a buttery smooth 50 FPS
It looks generic and not very thrilling Extraction shooters are great because of their tense do or die moments but stuff like Marathon is too damage spongey that all the tension is goneThis is Cycle Frontier all over again
if you have to make your geometry jarring as fuck to look at with bright ass colors that don't fit into the world around it just to make it stand out, you failed as a designer
>>731144639>Marathon is too damage spongeyno.the ttk is super short. in fact its so short that guns kinda trivialize a lot of the abilities since theyre so much bertter. ttk was pretty long in the first beta but they changed that
>>731138136You say this like cracks arent starting to show on Arc already because there's zero content beyond the first couple hours. No loot progression, no story, ai ass generated cutscenes and dialogue etc.Its 100% surviving on the casual gamgerdad audience right now with a huge streaming audience because 1. The game is very casual freekit friendly with zero stakes gameplay 2. The lack of progression is less obvious when you only play 1 or 2 hours per week 3; There's zero competition because Tarkov is a niche hardcore autist entry in the genre. Marathon would be the only other game attempting to inhabit the same space and clearly there's a lot higher production in Marathon
The Marathon Comeback is real/v/ will scream into the abyss, but they are powerless to stop it.
>>731144213Extraction games stretching thin content with fetch quests.Extraction games are the new fadAll other games that aren't COD/BF are hero shootersBF6 sucked, specifically the maps (my friend has 100 hours max)The only other popular game is Marvel Rivals and it's a ADHD hero game
>>731137674Realistically, who the fuck is this game for? Everything it's trying to do has been done better (or at least in a way that's amassed a bunch of paypigs that won't jump ship anytime soon). Plus, Marathon as an IP has niche appeal, and the small fandom it has won't be interested in an extraction shooter with almost no resemblance to the source material. The only personality it has is an artstyle that looks novel in artwork and trailers, but feels drab and unfinished when translated to actual gameplay. It just feels like a last desperate attempt now that Destiny is on its last legs.
>>731144720And luddites kept saying AI can't generate kino games
After High Guard will this be Concord 4 or 5 I lost count?
>>731144639I hope Hunger isn't total shit, I like PvPvE but only if PvP is the focus.If only it wasn't using UE5 . . .
>>731144758>Everything it's trying to do has been done better (or at least in a way that's amassed a bunch of paypigs that won't jump ship anytime soon).what game? tarkov? thats the only good extract shooter.>Marathon as an IP has niche appealthis is a reboot so that doesnt matter. 99% of people have no clue there are other marathon games and dont care.> the small fandom it has won't be interested in an extraction shooter with almost no resemblance to the source materialthe people that played the original mac games are 40+ and have a wife and kids to worry about. theyre not the target audience for this reboot.
>>731144851What's the budget on this? It surely must be Concord-tier, right? Though I doubt it will flop quite that hard so the loss will be smaller, sadly
>>731144419>>731144457>>731144487>>731144497>>731144501Cope.
>>731138445>And make yet another photorealistic game that is outdated in 2 years?What a stupid argument, so the alternative was to make a shit looking game that is outdated on day 1? It looks worse than Destiny.
>>731144758>Realistically, who the fuck is this game for?The same large audience playing Tarkov and Arc (And those other smaller extraction shooters with like 30k players or something)>Plus, Marathon as an IP has niche appealI dont understand why people think Marathon as an IP was chosen for some kind of tactical market grab. Its just a sci-fi IP with good worldbuilding they had access too.They're hardly banking on the fucking 60+ macintosh gamers from the 90s that played the originals being excited for a continuation of the Marathon story line.Here's how it went down>Ok guys we want a slice of the newly emerging extraction shooter market, it looks like its the next in thing>Ok, do we create a new IP or use an existing IP>*That one guy, rummaging around in the cupboard and finding dusty ass Marathon materials* "...why don't we use Marathon?"Thats it, thats the entire thought process. It saves money and time
>>731144352This looks like Arc Raiders on low settings
>>731137875Truly a return to form for Bungie, I will be having a blast on March 5, 2026, on my PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC!
>>731144751yea I can see you today's shooter suck dick Rivals isn't as bad though still trash compared what we had in the 90's
>>731145161There is literally nothing that colourful in arc. Maybe the red apartment buildings with the good loot on dam
>>731144947so u b saying they make this whole art style but can't be bothered to make stylized characters wtf is wrong with devs from west coast US.
Arc Raiders created a much better on-ramp to the genre than Marathon ever could, but now the playerbase is becoming restless with the plethora of really bad exploits, cheaters, and balance issues that still haven't been addressed. Not to mention how more and more of the players are beginning to realize how little depth there is to the PvP or the general grind. And with how the devs themselves are now beginning to tell PvP players that the game isn't for them, the market is looking increasingly suitable for another extraction game to pop up. Marathon probably wont do insane numbers, but it'll likely get a modest and stable playerbase.
>>731144352Was this supposed to help your case?
Did all the talent leave or is Sony giving them negative budget?
>>731145469>this genre is plagued with all these issues>but this game in the same genre going through months of bad PR and general fuck ups will do just fine because of.........just because
>>731145065Cope. That is a screenshot from the April test or XSS / low gfx settings on PC. No textures.
>>731145469>Marathon probably wont do insane numbers, but it'll likely get a modest and stable playerbase.You better be praying to satan every day that it does, shill, or you'll be living under a bridge.
>>731145658>The game has tons of anti-soul gas to hide how shitty it looks>I-it looks good now goys!Bungie marketing isn't sending their best.
>>731145656nta but marathon plays more like a pure pvp experience than arc raiders. theres no gay voice coms of teaming up with randoms and going on wholesome chungus adventures, which is what got arc raiders to go viral.
>>731145658any good player is going to bend you over using the optimal settings, none of the shit that makes a game look "good" you have enabled or you nerf yourself, so you need to judge a comp game based on comp settings
>>731145658>No buildings or rocks>Hide the rest of the screenshot with fogGreat showcase man
>>731145065
>>731145880that shit is so gay. i hate people that lower their graphics settings for a placebo advantage.
