Marathon is going free-to-play for one week from June 2–9 alongside the launch of Season 2: Nightfall.Players on will be able to play the full game for free during the event, with progress carrying over if they decide to buy it later.The update also adds:- A new Night Marsh zone- PvE-focused modes- Matchmaking improvements- Vault/system updatesA lot of people are seeing this as Bungie trying to bring players back after the game has been losing most of its players and declining interest since launch.Offering a full free week will surely get them some players, but idk man, I feel like the game is done.
>>739728263Can a game be dead if it never lived?
>>739728263>the official announcement mentions "any progress you carry over">absolutely no mention of the impending resetit's like they're purposely trying to fuck themselves out having a steady playerbase in the future lmao
>>739728487It's leveling out, chud, with a consistent user base! Look at the charts! Average of around 7,000 players and not going down, Bungie always wins.
>>739729219It can only go up from hereYou'll look very silly if you dont get in at the new season start, there is no catch up
>>739728263did they remove the kernel level anti cheat?
>>739730273lol no and no linux for you either
>>739728263coolmy /v/ros can finally play with me
I didnt play it during the server slam im not going to try it out when they make one of the maps dark. should have made an arena shooter not a fucking extraction shooter
>>739730913the 3 people who actually play in linux are not going to save this garbage game from dying
no Linux no buy :^)
Not interested in playing but I will be laughing at whatever pathetic (lack of) player count this brings in
>>739728263We (yes, WE) are ALL finna play ts
>>739728263*it's going f2p forever before shutting down later this year
pretty sure this exact situation was on the predicted trajectory of this games failure
>4v4 will save highguard
Doesn't even support Linux
>>739732049
>>739729274I don't think you play at all.,
>>739728263I just... don't... care? I know, I know
I love that these lazy shills can't even bother to keep their shill threads bumped
>>739728263Buy a ad Bungie. You got a fucking budget for it.
lol the server slam had like 2 stars on playstation are they sure they want to do this the ratings are going to plummet
>>739734619kek nah
I'll "get" it just to give it a 1 star on both Xbox and PS. :)
>>739736567thisI can imagine tons of destinyfags are going to do the same thing inb4 "chuds are reviewbombing marathon" articles
Still won't be free to play thanks to psplus (paid multiplayer).But free is the way to go for player numbers. If people like it they buy clothes. That works. It worked for me for Hawken. Also make all new maps free otherwise people don't use them.>But we want more money.Be content with models/skins asshole.
>>739728263don't care. this game looks fucking gay
>>739728263It's over for this game. They are only delaying the inevitable. Keep in mind that GTA 6 comes out this year. That will kill a lot of old and upcoming games. Mediocre shit like this doesn't even have a chance.Speaking of dead games and free to play, why didn't Remedy go f2p with the Firebreak game? Marathon numbers are fucking pathetic by Bungie standards but less than 10 people are still playing firebreak.
>>739740596GTA is shit. Doesn't really matter how many bad people fund and expand something bad. Only matters that there is some good out there.
>>739729219Arc Raiders is king compared your shit game
