>How would you save her
here's how you could make it an instant hit.

1. change the artstyle to generic milsim
2. remove all incentive to kill other players and encourage everyone being friends all the time.
3. keep all gear when you lose so no ones feelings are hurt
4. Add a PVE mode that everyone asks for and then doesnt play.
5. remove gear tiers so that all gear is great all the time

Maybe not saved, but marathon is now fun
>>
>>737863942
Extract won't happen if there's combat within a certain radius. So shooting other teams at extract resets the clock, and draws in forces, which fighting will prevent you from extracting. Fix'd
>>
>>737863942
that doesn't fix the core reason people are leaving in that most people have to lose and that losing feels really bad.
I dont actually want that to change, but it's why people are leaving.

BUT IN THE END
IT DOESN'T EVEN MATTER
>>
>>737864229
Still not as noisy as the actual game's UI
>>
>>737864126
Losing every single match feels bad. If the success rate was closer to 75% then people wouldn't mind the 25% of the time they lose. Endgame players would be much less likely to kill noobs, because they'd have to content with the high odds of dying to pve and losing their endgame kit.
The only good promo material for the game had players immediately getting wiped by pve, the game should be more like that. You're a scavenger trying to rob a warzone, not a specops hardcore mercenary unit.
>>
>>737864126
>>737864140
Related but this is why people keep buying and occasionally playing MCC or, rarely if ever, the comatose f2p Halo Infinite or worse, Halo 5. The worst thing that can come out of a loss is reduced XP and currency gains but that's about it. No other major penalty. And the PvE is stupidly easy.

Losing in Marathon means losing hours to days worth of progress depending on what you specifically lost on that run. No true PvE mode either so you have to be on the look 24/7 for people due to the perma-pvp nature of the game.

Long term, this shit needs a PvE mode. There's no way around it. Literally every single other extraction shooter grew or reversed it's decline by leaning in to PvE.

It also needs an actual dedicated solo playstyle from beginning to end game. Solo ranked and solo Cryo. Even with no balance patches what so ever you'll literally see a decent up tick in players just by allowing solos to go into end game. If all you have is a single mode, it has to be played several different ways.

The PvP gamble didn't pay off. PvP works long term on an even playfield, that's why the sponsored playlist is so popular. A PvE mode is needed so even the most casual of casuals can reliably grind and build up an inventory to take to end game. What Bungie doesn't want to admit is that the entire game was designed to cater to their premade 3 man Destiny discord players at the expense of everyone else. Everyone is funneled into their world. Crew fill matchmaking are fodder to premades, rooks are designed to be at a disadvantage by design . Basically everyone not part of a premade that grinds the game daily to keep up with seasonal power creep is obligated to play at a disadvantage their entire time playing Marathon. I didn't even touch on the weapon balance but what I wrote is the fondation of the game's current decline.
>>
Where's the fucking content updates
>>
>>737865934
even with PvE i'm not sure i'd jump in. i can't stand being rushed towards an objective. i've tried other extraction shooters and it just puzzles me how they come up with all these crazy universes that i would love to explore, only for it to be ruined with rushed gameplay all for people that want to play dress-up
>>
I will never play marathon but I love the threads reading about the crash and burn. Bungie hasn't made a decent game in over 20 years
>>
>>737866047
Marathon wasn't supposed to be like this, funnily enough, it would have been like DayZ. Maps were supposed to be huge and persistent, teams would spawn in continuously, loot, fight, and exfil at exfil points. But I guess the Destiny engine couldn't handle it.

10v10v10 mode so teams can reasonably control zones on the map. Completing contracts requires intrateam negotiation to move the whole brigade to another zone. 10 man teams opens up actual strategic play and greatly expands the tactical options beyond "smash into opposing crew in CQC and face tank". Also, a "loot all" button that invokes a slight loot speed penalty, with a keep?/drop? pop-up when necessary. A vastly expanded arsenal with stuff like indirect fire mortars and even beyond visual range artillary for the Destroyer (does anyone even use the prime ability?). The gunplay of this is out of the early 2000's and it could be a lot better.

Their obsession with forcing players in the way they want in an already niche genre is the most baffling thing. You can do that in a Battle Royale Game where there's less stakes tied to winning and people are already used to playing with randoms.
And remember this game would have launched with Trios only if playtesters didn't bully them into adding the most bare bones solo mode at the last minute. Season 2 needs to figure out how to make group sizes from 1 to 3 work and be fun without killing the Matchmaking pool. Hunt Showdown managed to do it so they can somehow do it too if they aren't completely retarded.
t. someone that really likes the game but just can't stand playing with randoms. Just bring back Duos and make Solos not shit man.
>>
>>737869753
Duos was so great ngl. Solo = too much horror (and half-assed like you said), trios = too much chaos. Chaos is good in a BR like Apex. Extraction shooters, not so much
>>
A stable 15k peak daily player base is fucking amazing for a hardcore niche extraction shooter.
You guys are making a total nothingburger out of this.

>>737860049

If the game expects you to die repeatedly and lose everything then you shouldn't make them spend time collecting resources/money for basic shit like consumables. Hunt knew this and makes consumables dirt cheap.
