I have faith in this game. I am doing my part. Fuck the anons hating on kino
>>733314116What part? We will all get to play it for free during Open Beta 26th Feb
>>733314116I loved the last playtest so I'll probably buy it but I haven't bought yet. I'll play the test first and wait for last minute fuckups
HUZZAH
I thought this was a highguard thr4ead
>>733314116>OP declares he is going to "have a blast"
>they literally believe in their game so little that their most recent news posting is titled DEATH AWAITS, referencing the death of their live service gamelmao that's fucked
How much they're paying you to shill it pajeet?
>>733314116I actually enjoy the lime and edge style but the game 100% got Prey'd mid development by getting slapped with a franchise name to crowbar in.
>>733314116Already pre-ordered. Closed test sold it to me.
HIGHGUARDIAAAAANS ASSSEEEEMBLE
>>733314367^^^This is the anon that creates all of the hate threads.
OP is a faggot.
>>733314463You didn't answer the questionHow much you're getting paid to shill?
>>733314116hope bungue pays you well nigger>>733271450
>>733314116>I'm doing my part>I did my partMarathon shill dog whistle
>>733314116Marathon is very clearly meant to be a single player story-focused series. This extraction shooter is a cash grab.
>>733314604>>733314604Is that all you know how to say?Shouldn't you be in the other thread you created?
>>733314116Well ok but why would you think its kino? There's a 95% you didn't even play the original games and even then all the real talent left. Bungie was destroyed by a money hungry jew. Why would you think its gonna be good?
>>733314824Fuck off. I played and loved the originals. Fuck halo and fuck destiny. But i love marathon
the bar must be so fucking low for someone to be excited for this hot trash
>>733314116>>733314661It's funny that he didn't even use another image>>733314732projection
>>733314824>There's a 95% you didn't even play the original gamesI'm one of the 10 faggots that actually played them before this one was revealed and they are extremely mediocre
Are you having a blast tho?
>>733314116I'm having a blast!
>>733314116no stopnortubel is better
>>733314938I am hyped but also baiting for attention...a game I like is all ive got to look forward to rn after my gf cheated on me...
It sure does
>>733314384>the game 100% got Prey'd mid development by getting slapped with a franchise name to crowbar in.what makes you think that.do you know that theyve been progression the marathon storyline with destiny item descriptions over the years? doesnt seem slapped on to me
>>733314116Allegedly there is a free open Beta starting on the 26th of February so people can at least give it a go before they hate it to death.
>>733314116"Doing your part"? Bro it's a videogame. A trade. You are exhanging money for a game, you're not volunteering for a cause or something.
>>733315339Reminds me of that streamer melty years ago where some manchild was shouting about 'busting his ass as a Star Wars fan' because he didn't invited by Disney to some movie premier kek
It is unironically ESLs making these threads.
>>733314340>>733314965>>733315049>it's the shills who can't think for themselves
>>733314384>>733315169I looked it up and apparently the initial concept of the reboot was already like this around 2019, and also leaked as it is in 2022
Where the jannies at?
>>733314116>I have faith in this gameWhy?
>>733315803I thought it had always been using the Marathon IP, but the game itself kept getting redesigned. like it was a hero shooter when that was popular, then they fired the guy from Valorant and it changed into kinda a hero shooter, but with less emphasis on the heros. i actually don't know if it's still a hero shooter or if its just classes at this point
Going to play the open beta to see if I like it or not.
>>733314116my god the color scheme is so fucking ass
>>733315561>retarded pajeet accidently speaks the truth while trying to be sarcasticnigger you shitskins literally DONT get to think for yourselves because this shit is your JOB and you are being paid to follow someone else's thoughts XD
You know a game is truly rancid shit when /v/ shitposters pretend to like it, just to bait for (you)s.
>>733314872ngl that looks pretty sick.
spambot
>>733314872missed opportunity to do the GITS dive scene
>>733316117>redfallEvery time that game is on the edge of disappearing from my memory forever, I see it mentioned in a post like this. It's actually a Concord-like in that it's a failed live service hero shooter slop game, but you never hear about it when people are bringing up shit like Lawbreakers.It was that forgettable
>>733316212maybe its just me, but I feel like the marketing is getting more desperate. The shills are getting angrier and more combative and making more posts and new threads to try to regain the narrative, but it unravels faster each time.
>>733314116BLAST HAVERS IN THE HOUSE TONIGHT
>>733316189I hope its this because the thought of actual pajeet shills being forced to watch shitposters intentionally fuck up THEIR job while pretending to be them, causing trust in hiring them to plummet and eventually get them fired, is amusing.
>>733316117>color scheme>its just red green and blue>seething at the color purpleThis board has lost its mind
>>733314116fuck you goyslop enjoying niggercattle
>>733316263The current shift in marketing and COPE over shit-game failures is that negativity gets better interaction.So they are leaning into that to try and get more interaction and thus get better metrics to claim they are worth more money.
>>733316286indian shill farms are going to get replaced by AI, just like their call centers didBut at least then the AI bots will probably be more coherent. and harder to spot
>>733315931it did got redesigned after 2020 but it's murky as fuck howI'm finding PvPvE with custom Runners to this some sort "hero shooters/set classes with names" hybrid that still is PvPvE with Runners that you can still customize (?)
>>733316356so it's ok when zoomers complain about the piss filter but not ok to complain about the eyerape purple?
>>733316398>more interactionI guess? More anons laughing at a shit game never translates into more sales, though. If anything, it reduces sales because other anons that might've been considering buying see the shill threads, the arguments against the shills, then walk away without buying anything.>>733316413I don't care enough to check, but I'm sure the earliest announcement or reveal video had it being an extraction shooter with heroes.
>>733314116Where did they get this vomitous color scheme from? Playing splatoon?
>>733316413they deliberate obfuscate the hero/archetype stuff because 'Hero' label tests well with Apexfags but not extractionfags. Extractionfags want to be a no-name scavenger so they call them 'runners' which is a neutral term for the Hero enjoyers. They are both heroes and archetypes but the design language skews towards hero-given-generic-name.
>>733316406That is already a thing.Most people and anons don't understand how OLD botfarms doing this shit is.There was a massive market for hiring them back in 2016, which is when I first caught them doing it and found websites advertising networks of (supposedly) up to 100k fake accounts.People were doing this shit with more primitive automation long before LLM's were viable for it.
>>733316263Imagine believing Bungie pays people to post on of all places /v/ on 4chan.Meanwhile the same anon on /v/ spams hate threads every day while every other popular gaming forum now has a positive reception to Marathon.
>>733316527Social marketing companies would NEVER use something as nebulous as "sales derived as the result of our marketing" as a metric to sell themselves on.They use the amount of people reached.They determine that based on interaction.This is very convenient because you can get 95% of people telling you to fuck off and claim you "successfully advertised" to all of them.This all comes back to statistics, ultimately.The language of lying via math.
>>733316741
>>733316646I remember seeing those really rough AI generated profile pictures on Twitter with fake accounts at least as early as 2019.>>733316741Bungie themselves directly paying to shill on 4chan? No. Bungie or Sony paying a stealth marketing firm to 'spread the message,' and one of the places they choose to shill being 4chan? Absolutely. >every other popular gaming forum now has a positive receptionAh, so you're just a shill. This talking point is tired and entirely forced and transparent, but I'm sure the 50 sales you'll get from tricking the retards at ResetEra will help save the game.
>>733316520look Anon, I'm sorry you got clowned for random colors but don't say it came from here, in this thread>>733316527it still is an extraction shooter + what that Anon is saying >>733316643
>>733314116>faithwhat a freak. you can try the beta yourself in a few days and see why everyone shits on the closed playtests. have a little faith in yourself instead of a corporation
ASTROTURF the thread
>>733316845lol i played the game and liked it.
SAAAR IS NOT TRUUUU ITS SHIIIILLS AND BOTS SARSTOP THE ASTROSURFING SAR
>>733317039If we're already at the 'fuck you, I liked it' phase, marathon's launch weekend is going to be a hilarious wreck
>>733316640It has echoes of this sort of thing. Test cards and error messages. As for the specific colours they are artificial rather than natural. Neon rather than sunlight. Rather than blue and orange it's instead green and purple or cyan and magenta.
>>733316845if you want some earlier shit...ah its gonna be a pain but you would want to look into /pol/ archives in 2016 regarding a "youtube spotlight" video about immigration.this is offtopic for the board so I wont say much but:>google gets big into politics>releases series of special videos that show up in EVERYONE's youtube feed>get shit on by natives of countries with massive immigration>start using bot network to boost likes>/pol/ found out>massive shitstorm with deleting comments and deleting dislikes, but keeping likes and hiding swarm of obvious bots trying to boost videosomewhere on the internet is also a secretly filmed internal google meeting where they discuss how they NEED to control what people see and think as a "civic duty" from a similar time frame.I only saw it once and being a fool didn't save it.
>>733317039then why do they keep making huge sweeping changes after people explicitly say they don't like it?
>>733317083It's you spamming threads or spamming in threads / a mixture of both. Cope.I checked all the other major gaming forums including retroonera and neogaf.
>>733317132they got bullied to death, went radio silent, took the feedbacks and it's a bad thing?
>>733317132Tbh go look at the April test and see why.
>>733317260>it's a bad thingYes, because the resulting product is still something nobody wants.
>>733317260Because now the game wont flop and they don't get to dance on its grave
>>733317260They got folded like a fucking lawn chair when Arc Raiders' beta came out and they crunched for 10 months straight to make the game more Arc-like to cater to casuals. To me this doesnt sound like doing right by the fans, it's a lack of backbone that will show when streamers start demanding balance changes when the game does live.
>>733317260>>733317264I've played the last 2 playtests. My point is anyone who "liked" the game they last played may not "like" the next version with massive balance changes to combat and pacingthe game is floundering. they don't know how to make it compelling. as someone who has tried basically every extraction shooter to ever come to market, it feels most similar to The Cycle Frontier.
>marathon releases>its an absolute pile of shit>500 players at the end of the month>eos 2 months in>diddle gates acks bungie>all of its games killed
OP hereYou niggas are all schizos, im latinx btwI just wanna play something after apex died and durandal is kino
>>733317529I think it'd be way funnier if Valve updated Deadlock and Blizz updated OW at the same time Marathon launched, like what happened with Highguard. Or Rockstar just drops a new GTA trailer and takes all of the marketing attention. And isn't Resident Evil 9 launching the same day as Marathon?
>>733317424>make the game more Arc-like to cater to casualsThey've done the exact opposite. They are instead doubling down on pvp, reiterating that there will be no ABMM and highlighting that it will be unforgiving and you will die a lot. The only remotely Arc-like parts that were added are prox chat and solo queues.
>>733317529it will do very well
>>733317740No, see >>733317701 for why. What they're selling is the exact opposite of a mass market crowd appeal title. It's fucking niche.
>>733317740>game will success saar my imaginary stocks will be increase
>>733317441people say the latest tests tightened literally everything waaay beyond the last couple. it honestly feels like how arc raiders was incredibly dogshit right up until their final test. a lot of this stuff needs dialing in, and i devs just need rounds and time. i think it will be fine
>>733314116This game is a gem. I can't wait to have a blast from what's sure to be a return to form from our BungieBros!
>>733314697i dont want to just play halo again twice then never touch the thing again. extraction shooters give me much more replayability, tension, and you can still easily drip feed lore and story, which bungie has been doing with marathon.
>>733317039>>733317083>I sucked a cock and I liked it, you're all haters
>>733317831arc raiders was almost indistinguishable between tech test 2 and the final server slamMarathon genuinely feels different between every single test they host, and still never manages to feel good as a pvevp title. but yeah I'm sure they "just need to cook" or whatever else the bots will insisttighten up those graphics on level 3
>>733317701>They've done the exact opposite. They are instead doubling down on pvp, reiterating that there will be no ABMM and highlighting that it will be unforgiving and you will die a lot. that sounds fantastic>>733317804Crowds quite literally want a more hardcore extraction shooter than arc that isnt tarkov.
>>733317529I want this to happen but I don't know man 1 of these garbage games is bound to succeed at some point. Throw enough shit at the wall and some is going to stick it. I think the streak is going to be broken soon
>>733317701they added solos, prox chat and free kits (rook). Framing themselves as anti-arc by pushing PvP is kind of hilarious because Arc is full of pvp, you literally control the buttons you press.
>>733314116Well you do you. I'm just gonna do nothing
>>733318072>this game is shit and trash BUT I THINK IT WILL SUCCEEDweird new shill strat
>>733317441You didn't play the last two tests anon.
>>733318042>crowds literally want a hardcore extraction shooterthis is a literal example of the echo chamber nonsense just seen in that Highguard dev's comments. 'Nobody thought the game would fail.'
>>733318037>arc raiders was almost indistinguishable between tech test 2 and the final server slamare you insane? right up until the last test, time between encounters was fucking ridiculously long, game felt empty as fuck
>>733317804>It's fucking nicheis it really though? Arc and Tarkov exists on their own and CoD and BF have their own half assed twists on thatthis game is going to attract a good number of curious casuals and the regulars (maybe lesser amount but still) that want something else
>>733318138Because it's not that retard. I'm not saying marathon will succeed but one of these will at some point. they can't all flop right?I hope they do tho
>>733318165everybody thought highguard would fail though, whereas marathon seems to have is a forced hate-bandgon that is dissipating in real time the closer the release gets lmao
>>733318213game still feels empty as fuck. it did not meaningfully change. they did not change the healing from 2 seconds to 10+ seconds for example.
>>733318319if you're talking about arc raiders i kind of agree but i do think it feels better since time between encounters was massively reduced
>>733318282>are extract shooters nicheYes, incredibly. >it'll attract casualsIt'll attract Arc players who might be looking for something new, and they'll rapidly realize Marathon isn't casual friendly, then they'll leave and never come back.>>733318315>marathon seems to have a forced hate bandwagonThat you're referring to it as 'hate' means you're a shill and don't understand board culture. You don't belong here, retard.
>>733318368Yes I was talking about arc raiders, and comparing the types of changes it got before release to the changes marathon is currently undergoing
>>733318165>this is a literal example of the echo chamber nonsense just seen in that Highguard dev's comments. 'Nobody thought the game would fail.'isn't HG some sort of weird "Apex with magic" mix bullshit going on? why are you saying that heredo you want to also compare it with Tarkov and Arc?
I hope the game does ok because it seems like Bungee are doing something a bit risky and experimental and risky and experimental games having success is good for the industry as a whole as it means you have a chance to get new things rather than the same 5 games repackaged 50 different ways.
>>733318435I'm not saying Highguard is an extraction shooter, you dipshit. I'm referencing the Highguard dev's comments in that deleted tweet about how they all thought the game was amazing and was exactly what people wanted and couldn't fail and all that other detached shit.
>>733318042>Crowds quite literally want a more hardcore extraction shooter than arc that isnt tarkov.Sir, DMZ? Hunt Showdown? Arena Breakout? The Cycle? Dark and Darker?and yeah half of them are dead because the fanbases blame everything in these games besides themselves.
>>733318431i think there's a disconnect between our perspectives here. I believe arc raiders became measurably better in a way that contributed to its success. If you think marathon is doing the same kind of iteration, then I believe marathon will also be better.i mean the sheer amount that arc raiders sold proved that apparently the changes resonated with people. reminder that people werent that excited up until, once again, the very last playtest.
>>733314872its a shame he has retarded horns and troon nigger face, basically cheat character with a shotgun
>>733317634>im latinxGod you mfs are so fucking annoying kek
>>733318398>and they'll rapidly realize Marathon isn't casual friendlyI think the people that wanted Arc to be more hardcore will stay>>733318503ah I see, desu these guys showed a game no one asked, disappeared and then delivered as it is without alphas, betas or anything in a short windowthey kinda had it coming
>>733318610What I am trying to say is that arc made overall small changes to tighten up a core experience that people were already positively responding to. Marathon is making large changes mere weeks before launch in an attempt to salvage the experience before it is live. One of these had a decent foundation while the other is still trying to find one.Will the game sell? Probably pretty decently. Not as much as arc but it won't flop like concord. But I do not see this game managing to hold a playerbase, especially with the inevitable massive changes that will also be happening after release.
>>733318591yeah im aware of those existing but they all feel like shit. dmz and arena breakout are like extremely budget tarkov. hunt showdowns animations make my eyes burn, and i havnt seen the cycle (assuming its dead) and dark and darker was terrible, like someone trying to make pvp out of kingsfield combat or something
>>733318765>people wanting Arc to be hardcore will stayMaybe. But whatever that number is, it's going to be small and not enough to sustain the kind of income Sony needs here
Where's the fucking gameplay?
>>733318657Arc is a troon game too and look how popular that is.
>>733318591>and yeah half of them are dead becauseBecause they fuck over solos and are built around traveling through huge maps or killed by 0 ttk campersMarathon has none of those issues
>>733318902>arc is a troon gameWhy you shills are trying to force this when it isn't true is baffling, especially all it does is draw attention to the tons of screenshots of actual troon devs and lgbt/woke shit at Bungie.
>>733318784>Marathon is making large changes mere weeks before launchno it isnt. the game from the April beta test to the most recent one, barely any changes except ttk adjustments.
>>733318784>Marathon is making large changes mere weeks before launch in an attempt to salvage the experience before it is live.I dont think they have been making recent large changes. game's overall design and visuals have been locked down since at least july of last year or so. And based on the reception from the playtests, I dont view their changes as "salvaging some thing they dont know what to do with in a frantic scramble to make the thing have a sensible loop". Seems more like tightening and iteration at this point, after all, people who have played early are responding positively to the way pve and pvp feel, the main criticisms were the visuals from way back in april. Other than that it seems like solid bungie ai pve, and almost slightly apexy pvp (with less movement-tism and twitch-aim tism)
>>733318435>isn't HG some sort of weird "Apex with magic" mix bullshit going on?no it was actually a 5v5 base pvp thing there you each have base and try to blow each others up, and fight for resources in the middle of the map. pretty interesting setup.yet they marketed so poorly everyone thought it was a battle royal lmfao
>>733319008>except ttk>and healing>and movement speed>and squad number>and mission structure>and...it's making big changes regardless of whether you are willing to acknowledge it
>>733318883on Youtube Anon, by now there's hours of it>>733319154oh
>>733314116I wonder why there's so many shills for this turd. I though it was already done for after that botched alpha.
>>733319156it's still 3v3. the solo rook mode is like a scav mode in tarkov. it's still a 3v3 game thats not changing.idk what u mean by mission structure. the missions have been the same in each test. everything you listed is minor adjustments or additional content like the rook mode.
>>733318883https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=il5YL83ebUIhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsnFy1Caxbk
>trusting Bungie againWhy is /v/ like this? you never learn.
>>7333191563/5 of these are things every dev tweaks right up until their final build of the game, they are not making massive design changes. and 2/5 were not changed recently at all. squad number has been locked for a while, mission structure has been locked for a while, the general loop is completely locked down.yes, ttk, healing, and movement speed will always be tinkered with, like every single competitive game ever. overwatch does not become a different game when lucio has his speed reduced by 0.1 lmao, its called balancing
>>733314872>kino trailer full of action meanwhile the actual game is the most boring soulless and yet another extraction shooter
>>733319257It's the final lead up to launch, so they're shooting their final load, because once it comes out, they're going to lose control of the messaging
>>733319283>it's still 3v3. the solo rook mode is like a scav mode in tarkov. it's still a 3v3 game thats not changing.Nope.There is a solo-queue-only option.Rook is separate and yes he functions like Scav, but you are randomly thrown into in-progress solo or squad matches.
>>733319283if you think that changing the entire pace of combat with ttk, healing, movement speed, and stamina updates aren't literally massive changes to make a month before release, then I think you have made your loyalty clear and there is nothing more to discuss
>>733319156Is it a different genre yet? Did they fix the stolen artstyle? No? it's the same reheated slop after a few internal balance patches.
>>733319337>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=il5YL83ebUI8:11 convinced me to try the test of this thing, never pre-ordering tho, suck shit marketer
>>733316741fucking retarded newfag
>>733319434>There is a solo-queue-only option.there always was a solo queue option. that was in the first playtest in april 2025. you get put into lobbies with trios. unless they just announced something new recently i missed, this was never a new feature. >>733319435all of those were tweaked in the beta last october. 6 months before the games release. and those are not massive gameplay changes those are minor adjustments based off playtester feedback something every single game goes through when being developed.
>>733319435>ttk, healing, move speed, whateverThose are value changes in a spreadsheet or database. They're not massive. If the game suddenly changed from hero based to totally customizable characters, or if there was a new map revealed, or fucking vehicles added or something, THAT is a major change.
>>733319384nobody wants to play a narrative fps these days, even if you think you do, you'd play it once and never again.
>>733319542>Did they fix the stolen artstyle?
>>733319542lmao this npc's firmware is so out of date he still thinks the antireal situation is a big deal-first, the art style was not even close to dependent on antireal's work, it was already established-second, it was one rogue employee who stole assets, when people realized, they were fired, and the original artist was made whole about the best you can do given the situation. literally every other AAA developer has a "scandal" like this once per project.
>>733319625>there always was a solo queue option. that was in the first playtest in april 2025. you get put into lobbies with trios. unless they just announced something new recently i missed, this was never a new feature.Yes you DID miss something, there has been solo-only lobbies since the October test. You can still queue into 3's with 2 people, but not by yourself anymore.Source: I played 50 hours of it solo-only.
Game actually looks quite a bit better than Destiny, but it's extraction PvP slop so it's DoA
>>733319337How the fuck do people even play this fucking garbage.
>>733319810By pressing keys and moving their mouse.
>>733319625>>733319647you guys are shills and not very good ones. this is the kind of balance that is done many months before release not weeks. not the last fucking beta before launch. games balance by tweaking individual weapon performance to be in line with the rest of the available weapons. that line is what we are discussing. they are not changing the core ttk for all weapons this late in development. you don't wake up one day and fucking Call of Duty man runs at a different speed and has more health. They make an SMG do 42 damage instead of 44. fucking idiot shill faggots.
>>733319801there is currently no current AAA pvp focused fps extraction shooter, therefore it will do well

>>733319434it looked like he was implying the game is designed with trios in mind, not that solos doesn't exist. Which is apt because the hero balance is very rock paper scissors. Playing Void and getting wallhacked by Blackbird is paper beats rock hero design.
>>733319810hatebandwagoners are starting to run out of lego/nerf comparisons so now they just act like confused estonians who have never seen a video game before HOW PLAYMOVE MAN WITH GUN? HE MAKE SHOOT?

Lets deboonk your bullshit>its not even close to antireal's workIt was exact assets and a general aesthetic that were lifted 1:1.>it was one rogue employeeThis is bizarre cope that has never been stated by Bungie.>it wasn't a 'scandal'It was big enough for them to go completely dark on marketing and delay the game for eight months. Stop pretending.>>733319915>>733320061>>733320068oh hey, it's you, marathon shill. Same anti-Arc image and everything. That stuff you quoted is a US federal requirement for anti-discrimination, which you would know if you weren't being completely disingenuous. I do love how much Arc makes you seethe, too.
>>733319656>you'd play it once and never againand that's a good thing, or do you like to be squeezed out of your monthly salary for microtransactions, season passes and DLC by greedy companies?
>>733319998looks good
>>733320195I own Arc you faggot, cope.Still a tranny game.
>>733320257No, it's completely mindbroken you shills to the point that shitting on Arc is part of your marketing script along with the same half dozen images you keep posting.
>>733319986damn the shill had to disengage after losing an argument because you can't have no no words on the office computer
>>733314116I want it to be good, really I do. But all the gameplay looked bad.
>>733320104Shun the non blast haver! Shuuuuun!
>>733320195artist got payed off and the studio moved on thoughbeilt
>>733320205of course not, i just dont buy that extra shit. i enjoy the near endless replayability of this genre. plus a ranked mode. if its supported for a long time and doesnt suck i might be playing it for years who knows
>>733319771>the art style was not even close to dependent on antireal's work, it was already establishedYeah because nothing says Marathon like neon crayon vomit lol
Blast status?
>>733320369yeah, Sony definitely gave the artist a shitload of money to make the problem go away, because otherwise the artist could've sued the shit out of them in court and delayed the game's launch by at least a year.
>>733314116Yup! Peanut told me to buy this game and to send money to Israel, so as a conservative Christian, I have no choice but to do both of these things.
>>733320331You are the one shilling for Embark Studios.Every other gaming forum has a positive reception to Marathon.It's you spamming thread and spamming in threads.
>>733320459yea that's what I said
>>733319771>lmao this npc's firmware is so out of date he still thinks the antireal situation is a big dealI hope you're trolling or just a shill, because if you're genuinely defending a AAA game studio with m$ behind them stealing their game's design iconography from some random artist then you're the biggest faggot I've ever seen post here
>>733320087Assassin seems OP in solo conceptually, but they nerfed his invis compared to the April reveal. He leaves a distinct shimmer that once you know what to look for, its pretty easy to spot. He has a mod that makes his invis longer when he stands still but it sacrifices his stamina so even the sneakiest of them will be severely gimped in their mobility.Recon seemed to be the slight favorite among most solos, I guess her wallhack ability was a nice security blanket for people.I mainly ran Vandal for the movement + the knockback ability and saw a lot of success though. Allowed me to squirrel out of a lot of ambushes that I shouldn't have survived.
>>733320424>3 marathon games in the dark scifi militaristic aesthetic>4 halo games in the dark scifi militaristic aestheticgod forbid they do something new. no, they should do the same aesthetic for the 8th game!
>>733320547then go the fuck back to other "forums" and suck cock there you dumb robot
SAAR DO NOT BULLY THE MARATHON STOPPING THE NICE WORDS FOR ARC ONLY SAY GOOD ABOUT BUNGIE
>>733320547Gaslighting now, shill? You bring up Arc out of nowhere (to try to diminish it in favor of marathon), then ree when you get called out. I don't need to shill for Arc because it's already successful. And I will always bully you whenever I see your repugnant shilling for this turkey. Always.
>>733314116I hope its good in the same way I hope that good things of any sort happenThat does not mean I have any particular faith that Bungie will actually be able to pull it off thoughas far as I'm concerned, any amount of goodness in this game will be in spite of Bungie, not because of them
>>733320582>antireal's art had no influence on marathon's artstyle because it always looked like this!>ok well no it never looked like this, but how dare you criticize them for doing something different!Kill yourself faggot
>>733320582or just make a new IP instead of being so creatively bankrupt
>>733320578ah ok, cool. im glad they added a true solo mode. i tried playing w randoms in trio and that wasa bad experience most of the time
>>733320378>I'm a hamster on a wheel but its fine cause the wheel changes color every 3 months!
>>733320195dawg are you esl? i said his work did not DEFINE the art style. the art director did not decide the entire aesthetic based on antireals twitter.and no shit they didnt blow him up publicly, bungie is not going to out the employee they fired, my point is they absolutely did not just do nothing. if someone both cannot produce their own shit and just gets you into trouble, they are 100% a liability.they mainly went dark because they were reworking the entire look of the game to better match their adverts and cinematics. if anyone is still bitching about this after the artist was made whole, you just dont understand large scale development. this shit is inevitable, it happens constantly, it just depends if it gets out or not. it got out this time, and was dealt with. i could not give less of a fuck lol.
>>733320670That's a hell of a lot of cope shill.
>>733320724>>733320710goal post status: moved
>>733320582Should have made a new IP instead of doing a weekend at bungie's corpsefuck then.
>>733320757you think the hamsters are on their wheels 24/7?
>>733320757if you enjoy the wheel, that's better than being on it for a very short time then never again
>>733320823>incorrectly stating the names of logical fallacies means I winYou're retarded.
>>733320792>the art director did not decide the entire aesthetic based on antireals twitter.is he the one who had to quit his job after the whole world found out he was either grossly incompetent, complicit with art theft, or possibly both?
Arc Raiders has spectacle that I haven't seen from this yet, and the ARC AI being dynamic and fun is a huge draw. It's why half of the people playing the game don't give a shit about PVP.
>>733320854>>733320878>the rodents cope
>>733320424yes, since its new announcement, it didnt look anything like that generic spess marine shit on the left
>>733320792>they mainly went dark because they were reworking the entire look of the game to better match their adverts and cinematicsDo you actually believe this? Be honest.
>>733320823you said they should do something different and I agreed. It shouldn't be called Marathon.
>>733319337you seriously want to tell me this game isnt aimed at 12yo kids?the whole game looks like something a 5yo cobbled together with a box of random legos
>>733320753there is no true solo mode. You can play on your own, but one of the devs even said solo isn't how the game is designed.>>733320792>the blackout was because they were reworking the look to better match the ads!What an absurd reach. Discourse online was entirely negative around the game and its perception, and the release date was even indefinitely delayed during that period while Sony decided what they wanted to do. ANd it wasn't the first time Bungie had been caught stealing art, which made it even worse. Trying to downplay it is ludicrous.>>733320810Keep seething about Arc and its numbers. It's clear you're threatened by it and have orders to compare and contrast marathon to it. And it's obvious to anyone reading these threads.
>>733320578oh shit do head slashes do more damage?
>>733320947and its also why the arc player base is a bunch of cry babies that get mad when you shoot them....in a pvp game. theyre playing hello kitty island adventure in arc
>>733321039>but one of the devs even said solo isn't how the game is designed.that is clear in the design but a solo only lobby is better than solo in a lobby full of trios. doesnt matter for me since im going to play w friends exclusively. but solo might be ffun to fuck around in sometimes too
>>733320913i was thinking about including that my original post but it was funnier to see you walk right into a rake insteadYES, if he was the one who stole or encouraged it or was complicit himself, that means he was fired or pressured to leave, he is literally not there anymore! What the fuck else were you supposed to do as an exec or higher up if you dont have a fucking mind reading device. The person gets ejected and you make the original artist whole.
>>733321086And they're in the top ten most played games by playercount because of it. Any company, especially Sony, would love to be in that position.
>>733321039Cope cope cope. Mental illness.
who in their right mind would pay money for a bungie product in this day and age? if it were f2p sure try it whatever, but giving this company money? are you retarded?
>>733321086Well say what you want, the PVE/PVP balance is likely why it's successful and why another cowadooty is probably not going to get the same traction
>>733314872Now show how this actually looks ingame lmao.
>>733320947the ai in marathon is a lot smarter than the arc ai. they will do some very surprising flanks on you in marathon.
>>733321039>What an absurd reach. Discourse online was entirely negative around the game and its perception, and the release date was even indefinitely delayed during that period while Sony decided what they wanted to do. ANd it wasn't the first time Bungie had been caught stealing art, which made it even worse. Trying to downplay it is ludicrous.Even if I grant literally all of that, nobody gives a shit anymore lmao. the original artist was made whole, director left/the employee responsible was removed, and everyone moved on.
>>733314116concord 3
>>733321248It's just boring humanoids though
>>733321031That actually is the remains of a child's room. One of the many lore items you can find in the game is one of those smiley face toys and it contains a story audio log relating to them.
>>733321248lollmao, evenmarathon has the worst PvE gameplay in the genre by a wide margin
>>733321086>having next gen features is bad because of carebearsand 20 year old scripted AI is better?
>>733321248makes sense, bungie after all has usually had decent bipedal npc enemies who seem to make a lot of decisions
>>733321294they adding aliens eventually
>>733321031>his game isnt aimed at 12yo kids?It's definitely more mature than that. 16+ at least.
>>733321294i think humanoid enemies are way cooler than like 90% of enemies being little physics whirring drones
>>733321334Eventually not gonna cut it when you need to establish a large player base right out the gate
>>733321315wow that sounds poggers
>>733314340>Anon declares they'd never "have a blast"
>>733321318? in the genre?????that title goes to tarkov where the ai is literally standing still, walks in a preset path, and will one shot you half the time w aimbot. the marathon ai is fun to fight. i have several funny clips off me fighting them saved on my harddrive from the betas.
>>733321318lmao this dude is really trying to tell people that tarkov has better ai than destiny.
>>733321392Well you're wrong and gay but it's not like that's illegal I guess
>>733321189>reee, cope, reee>YOU are the crazy one, not meKeep going, please.>>733321259I agree that it's mostly done now, but it'll come up again when the game comes out. And if there's any other scandal ever, it's going to be a much worse shitshow.>>733321401Probably locked behind a $20 season pass, too
>>733320582its the most gay cyberpunk aesthetic ever made and they could call it concord and will be fine not tie an old game with lore myth they could use that ip name to make their own halos
>>733321031genuinely fucking hilarious bait, 9/10
>>733321472yeah dude fighting the fallen again from destiny is so groundbreaking holy fuck dude the part where they have way more health than players to keep their braindead asses alive sure is genius game designI'm having a blast
>>733321576>brings up destiny out of nowheremkay bud.
>>733321039there is a true solo mode retard, i played it in october
>>733321248They are reskinned destiny bots with the exact same AI since Halo, with predictable patrol patterns, basic aggression states, scripted encounters. It is completely lifeless against Arc's literal robots.
>>733321531>to make their own halosisn't Marathon/Destiny/Halo all linked already
>>733321616Wow I wonder what could possibly draw that comparison
>>733321630i had more fun with marathon's pve. but i think arc is really bad in general. it does have better enemy spectacle im not disagreeing about that
>>733321480Mental illness, take more anti anxiety / happy tablets and try not to ACK your self.Keep spamming in threads and spamming threads too.
>>733321616yes it's the same AI and even some of the same animations. does someone need to forcefully smash your head into a screen for you to notice that?
man the shills are getting really aggressive and angry, huh. where'd you fags come from and why do you think anyone here gives a shit about your game
>>733321691you said in the genre. i guess i forgot destiny was an extraction shooter. >>733321735settle down. why are destiny fans so aggressive and weird?
>>733321706so there is no marathon alien or monster in the whole game?
the artstyle on itself isn't bad, and some could say that it's the perfect time to bring such artstyle thanks to the new technology like raytracing and the huge amount of available RAM and shader cores... problem is, to make such artstyle works you need a competent team that is really good with materials/shader/lighting, something Bungie doesn't seems to have the skill for.This is why the ingame visuals are atrocious and seems so different than the CGI ones. I think the old DICE (battlefront 2015) would have been a better studio for this kind of work. (cf mirrors edge 1)
>>733321781I fucking hate destiny but I hate blind retard shill faggots more
When will you idiots realize this doesn't work?You can't shame people into playing your garbage.This isn't some contemporary art scene where people pretend to like something just to belong. People will call you a retarded shill and go back to the games they like, even the casual normies are slowly waking up to your tactics.I guess Marathon will have 2 more weeks than Highguard but it only looks slightly less generic and boring.
>>733321814not in the betas. i am not sure when theyre going to be in the game. my guess is it will be added in a future game season.
>>733321770Desperation is mounting, I guess.
>>733321846>calls destiny an extraction shooter>calls me retarded?
>>733321829its bad in the whole character and gun design
>>733321869>future game season.holy peak I can't wait to let them cook me up some more blast
>>733321770They just announced the delay for destiny expansionthey HAVE to sell marathon now
>>733314116I will join the playtest, but then play other games because a lot of better stuff is coming out. By the time I will come around it will already be dead.
I really don't think it has the juice, people want to believe because content in ARC dried up forever ago. It is Bungie though, so at least it will probably get better post release support than Arc Raiders has
>>733321814Their is at least one S'pht Compiler on the endgame Marathon ship map and it is supposedly the end boss.On the other 3 maps there are Phor Ticks that build nests in random corners/chokepoints in the map and they serve as lesser environmental threats/enemiesIts highly likely that more are added later as they are heavily alluded to in the lore I found in the tests.
>>733317936Extraction shooters are the new gacha.
>>733322018Arc probably just has a huge amount of people leaving with just as many new people coming in. Nobody I played the first month with plays anymore. They must have sold an absolute shitton of copies
>>733322018post release support? They'll just fill the store with mtx and give you scrap for content
>>733322018anon have you heard about d2 in the last couple years? bungie isn't exactly doing too hot with their "post launch support"
>>733322281That game is over a decade old man, they may have fumbled recently but that's a pretty good lifespan
>>733321962yes and no actually, some of the character and guns look kinda good in CGI, but ingame it's atrocious.this style require a high definition type of material and lighting to really work.
>>733322281d2 is a decade old game. it got good support for a long time.
>>733314116Well… i lost all my faith in RE9, does Marathon got room for one more?
>>733314116hey fellow 4channersI don't appriciate you dude's negative attitude giving uncool thumbs down to Bungie™'s upcomming video game, Marathon™I am going to do my part by having a BLAST with this awesome video game as I chug Mountain Dew™ and eat Domino's Pizza™Fuck the haters, the game is ON
>>733322281d2 got support for a long time. like a decade
>>733322468A very strange thing to double post >>733322231
>>733322361what point are you trying to make exactly? you acknowledge they've "fumbled" recently and your counterargument is "uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh their game isn't EoS so yea" as if that supersedes the intense dogshit they've been pumping out
>>733321829>I think the old DICE (battlefront 2015) would have been a better studio for this kind of work. (cf mirrors edge 1)It's funny you say that because old DICE (present Embark Studios) DID dip back into the Mirror's Edge well of design when doing The Finals. And it has all the UE5 shit like ray tracing. Maybe they should have used this ME style for an extraction shooter but settled on the used future aesthetic instead.
>>733322281they supported d2 for like a full decade, I think that's pretty good
>>733322553Nta, but i feel his pain
>>733322361>>733322445>>733322523>>733322613Holy organic posts
>>733322361>recentlyLOLLMAO
>>733322281supporting an old game like that for a decade is a long lifespan
>>733322424require to look like fucking cyborgs with plastic not lego roblox plastic
>>733322653you got owned so hard, 4 people replied to you saying basically the same thing. thats called getting btfod. but year call ppl shills some more that will make ur butt less hurt XDDDD
>>733322653It's weird to try to talk up Destiny 2's post launch support after the content vaulting scandal and the lawsuit about the old campaign being vaulted too.>>733322705>a decadeIt came out in October in 2017, idiot.
>>733322653>Say some stupid shit that inspires four different people to call you a retard Heh... Got em
>they supported it for a long time, so it's good>well yes everything they made is horrendous shit and they had to support it because it's their only game but the fact that they did it at all is good!what am I even reading, how much are you niggers being paid? if it's that easy I want some money too
>>733322782Right? That's why I refuse to believe it's organic lmao. >they supported the game for 10 years>well yea they outright permadeleted 8 years of that stuff but I mean, uh.. yea!
>>733314116I am so hyped :D
>>733322653you got rekd so hard, 4 people replied to you saying peactically the same thing. thats called getting BTFO. but yeah call people bots or something that will make your tears dry LMAO
>>733322831>bad content in year 9 negates good content in year 1
>>733322831
>>733322904No, that anon was right. The 'Bungie has supported a game for a decade!' seems like a bullet point in a list of marketing talking points to hype up marathon by giving idiots the idea it'll also be around for a long time.
>>733322924>implying destiny 2 was good for 9 years and then suddenly sucked this yearDon't (You) me again you pathetic samenigger
>>733322653you got btfod so hard, 4 people replied to you saying the same thing. thats called getting your ass blasted. but yea call ppl shills some more that will make the ownage get less
I don't even like Destiny but ARC has gotten jack shit for six months, a company that is used to putting together roadmaps is a pretty big positive
this thread is why removing ip count was a mistake
>>733322904>>733323114Did a bot break? I guess an AI agent would be cheaper than paying someone on Fiverr to wade into 4chan to shill this trash
>>733323156What is that?
>>733323278it's just an indian or a shartykid shilling or trolling to make shills look worse. pointless to engage with, even though he's probably 50% of the posts in this thread
>>733323156doesnt make a difference when this stupid site has archiving, jannies and hashtrack
>>733314116>t. product received for free
500k players next weekend for the beta, /v/ on suicide watch
>>733323630i hope so but im assuming near 100kish, but it will be big on console so hard to get those numbers
>>733323729If the beta is free to play and doesn't beat 150k, it's a very bad sign for the full game.
>>733323889retard
>>733323729majority of players will be PC because consoles dont really have an extraction shooter audience
>>733323950Preorders for it on PS5 are ranking higher than Steam
>>733314116WARDENSASSEMBLEWE CAN'T LET ANOTHER GAME FALL
>>733324054I ALREADY POSTED 35 TWEETS SIR
>>733316117i dont even remember this game having these neon barf colors in the game itself
>>733323950this is a bungie game anon, a large part of their market is console
>>733316356telling people theyre crazy for noticing is only going to make them notice harder
>>733322564Yeah it could have been better if they would have followed the original ME design (and adding a bit of designer republic on top).
>>733324226Some of the neon lighting is pretty aggressive cause the game is set in Shibuya, but most of the time the strongest colors are the spells you're castingSo yes, it's just a marketing meme. The game isn't any more bisexually lit than Mass Effect 3 is blue and orange
>>733319656>you'd play it once and never again.yeah thats how i like video games. i like to play them for the story, art, music, setting, characters, and then i play something else after im done.its how it should be.i dont watch the same movie nor read the same book hoping for new experiences.you are either a shill or a brainrotted zoomer that doesnt get things used to be better.
Am I going insane why are people shilling this now.I looked at the footage last year and now and shit still looks the sameDid people really just get baited by cinematics that don't actually represent the game?
>>733324531based
>>733319337Is this game designed to be an affront to aesthetics? Last time I felt so violated was when I played The Outer Worlds.
>>733319656>nobody wants to play a narrative fps these days, even if you think you do, you'd play it once and never again.At least i can still play them unlike all this live service shit with the lifespan of a mayfly. Tell me, is anyone going to be able to play Highguard by the end of the year?
>>733320878>that's better than being on it for a very short time then never againZoomer please, you get to go on 139 other wheels that have other features in the same time you keep reusing the same wheel
>>733324556the marketing push started since it's coming out in a few weeks.
>>733324556Kamala vibe shift is crazy
>>733324601Explain what looks bad about it anonPost an example
How do you do fellow blast havers?
>>733323156do you need IP count to see it's a single guy baiting retards to infinity?
>>733324556Sony's checks cleared and many blasts were had, a real return to form.
When is the next major release for void breaker?
People are too obsessed with nonsensical shit but this game is gonna flop longterm for one simple reason.It's a hero shooter which means metafaggotry runs rampant and Bubfie can't balance for shit.
>>733323278Nobody is shilling destiny anymore they made their money lol
>>733321445You see, for Tortanic posters 4chan is the gameIf a game does well, they lose
>>733321846>STOP TALKING ABOUT VIDEO GAMESlol
>>733314116sorry, anonI have different plans
>>733323464What does sharty have to do with this, take your fucking pills NOW
>>733325004yepits gonna instantly piss off the high stakes extraction shooter shit when they get meta'd lmao
>>733325029No shit. I'm talking about the current marathon shilling efforts.>>733325135you fucking based knower
>>733314116>it took them like a decade and 100s of millions of dollars>to reuse D2 assets but remove all the actual programming and content >they couldn't even come up with some ICON DECALS and had to steal them>it's just a series of outposts in a field >the rest of the game and all the interesting lore from Marathon just happens in a menukinda weird ain't it? reminds me of those Playstation games that keep crashing and burning lately...
>>733325250>the rest of the game and all the interesting lore from Marathon just happens in a menuJust like the originals
>>733325291Gaming has come a long way in thirty years.
>>733325216>GUYS SERIOUSLY STOP TALKING ABOUT VIDEO GAMESLOL
>>733325034What brainlets like you don't seem to understand that it doesn't matter how successful an IP is, if you are talking in terms of millions or even something wildly "successful" and a billion+ people enjoy something. The population of the planet is 8 billion, it's still likely that there's more people who despise something than enjoy it.
>>733325250>>to reuse D2 assets but remove all the actual programming and contentwhat the fuck does this sentence meeeaaaaaan you are such a devlet please im begging you open software or something man this is your fucking hobby how can you speak so confidently on things you know nothing abouuuuuuuut aaaaaaaaaaa
Is Marathon going to be a Dedtiny tier hit?
>>733325417Not based on its current sales performance, lol
>>733325390>im begging you open softwareGood morning sir, do not redeem the software
>>733325250Naked asset reuse isnt the liability it used to be thanks to players like Fromsoft standardizing it. But i swear the shield guys are literally just reskinned Cabal from D2 which were reused from D1.
>>733325390>im begging you open softwareplease sar do the needful, open the software
>>733325417No
>>733325450christ missing a comma makes you a jeet now, i meant"im begging you, open software" im saying open any software related to game development, that was not some bombay sentence you esl retard lmao
>>733314116>What if we take the name of our cult classic FPS game Marathon, make a game that has damn near nothing to do with it, and make it into an extraction shooter? I HAVE NO INTEREST IN PLAYING THIS GAME.
[Buy a fucking ad snoy]
>>733325669>he thinks it's about a comma and not about "open software"I RAPE YOU COMMA BLOODY BITCH BASTERD
>>733324556>Did people really just get baited by cinematics that don't actually represent the game?No, they didnt. Which is why it sits so low in the global selling list. Shills don't represent the public no matter how many times they say opinion has shifted.
>>733325790It's gotten lower since then kek
>>733325736that was shorthand so i didnt have to list maya zbrush unity blender unreal gamemaker etc jesus christ i gotta stop taking the jeet bait this hard

>the same anti-shills making the same posts, in the same threads, with the same images, over, and over, and over...Yep, it's third-world /v/ hours.
>>733325909>still trying to argueYou said "open software". You are a pajeetHave a great day shilling Marathon
I think this game has an inflated amount of attention due to the success of Arc Raiders, once it comes out and does not meet the expectations that that game set for people it will probably struggle
>>733325909please sir kindly opening of software to see benchod fuck you
>>733314116>I have faith in this game. I am doing my part.Why the fuck do people act like playing some bullshit FPS from a corporate studio is some act of selfless volunteering or solidarity?Who fucking cares, just play the game or not. Stop with this cringe crap.
open softwareshow codana
>>733325876>$40Really?
>>733326582I'm sure there's a $100 Go Fuck Yourself version that includes an art book, OST, and a season pass
>>733325876the shills would have you believe this isn’t a flop
>>733325034They'll be telling their grandchildren of those sordid Silent Hill Feminazi wars. The hours they spent watching game playthroughs, the glee they felt when they found a controversial remark. And, when they get a little older, maybe a recollection of their discord admin finally pulling them into that private call...
>>733314116>from the creators of halo and destinyFuckin hell that's pretty brave to use in the marketing language when threats like this usually result in prison time.
>>733327016They're certainly trying, god bless their curry eating selves. Too bad it's blatant and will never convince anyone.
>>733324294but there's no purple
>>733325876this is embarassing.
>>733327476>yfw you're a Sony exec who spent $3.6b on Bungie and are seeing these preorder numbers
Why does this game have so many shills lol
>>733327637Its fate will determine whether Bungie lives or if the studio closes its doors by the end of the year.
>>733327637its part of the marketing budget. what surprises me is how theyre trying to argue that neonpop art style every cover has now doesnt exist and we're all crazy
>>733327584Sony paid bungie 3.6 billies to fuck over Factions 2 for DOA neon clown vomit extraction shit. Im not even a huge Naughty Dog fan and i think this is disrespectful as hell.
>>733327792Seems like karma almost if marathon flops then. Bungie kills Factions 2.0 and karma kills marathon and bungie
the fucked up thing is there are people conditioned to praise something bad whenever "4chan" doesn't like itand most of them control games media
>>733327637The rep of the entire bungie purchase is on the line, and we've already seen Concord eat shit, and Fairgames be as good as dead, as well as Highguar'ds high profile struggles.Investors are dumb as fuck but even they would notice several billion fucking dollars of straight bombs.>>733327259There's what, 5 active threads now? >>733323428>>733306235>>733277369>>733323570
>>733327637 Because this is literally do-or-die for them. Sony dropped $3.6b on Bungie and what do they have to show for it so far? Layoffs, canned projects, Destiny on life support, and a bunch of GAAS corpses piling up across the industry. If Marathon eats shit too, that acquisition instantly becomes one of the biggest clown moves of the decade.So yeah, of course there’s astroturf. Of course there are “longtime fans” suddenly hyperposting about how the art style is actually genius and extraction shooters are the future. They need momentum, preorder cope, anything that makes it look like this isn’t another Concord speedrun.When the financial stakes are that stupidly high, the marketing budget includes forum warriors.
>>733330370That $3.6b is gone and never coming back. Sunk cost fallacy territory. For Bungie to earn that money back, Marathon would have to be the next Fortnite in terms of popularity and have a concurrency on Steam in excess of 500k for months, something that nothing on Steam is doing except for DotA2 and CS2. I just cannot see a path to this game being anything except a very middling initial showing going quickly into a drizzling trail.
>>733314116it will be dead in a month just like highguard
>>733330974why bro what's wrong with you
>>733327123why are you replying to yourself?
>>733322084What if the compiler is a friendly chud and part of the raid mechanic?Escape will make me chud.
If I buy the game I also have to renew my live subEh
>>733332839Sucks being a snoy or xbawx chud.
>>733332839>my live subIt's a stupid fucking goycattle tax.Have fun paying for the online portion of the game you bought, using the internet connection you're paying for, you dumb little shit.
>>733332705Adorable, aren't they
>>733322623The game isn’t even out yet what are you fags crying about
>>733334042Its mental illness
