Thief or VandalWhich one are you fucking?
>>559729862I like easy girls so vandal
>>559729862Vandals DSLussy is mine.
>>559729862Thief
>>559729862None because they could be men.
>Only 1-2 priority contracts for Arachne>Not even a sponsored kit skinWhat the fuck is up with that? Last minute addition to the game?
marathon's a success/dg/ and /arg/ will continue to seethe and post here while their generals are dead
What Faction reflect the realities of Iran better?
>>559730014Based crochless, dolljoints enjoyer.
>>559730201I love her doll-like design
I'm a fan of this game but I am not gonna play it myselfI'm gonna stream peanut and cross every now and then. I just think its a bad and boring game to play, for me. I am not that bad but I am not as good to wanna get better and yeah I only found shit loot
Does it really cost half the game to buy the colour black for a single character?
>>559730289>I'm a fan of this game>I just think its a bad and boring gameWhat variety of mental illness is this?
>>559729862>Thief or VandalFor gameplay, I hate both, they're week.I would fuck Vandal in the butt even tho I heard he has a small penis between her(male) legs
>>559729760>GlitchDid they butcher the lore by switching from characters to classes?
>>559730443It's the aesthetics, it simply looks good. People like pretty things
>>559730442>Does it really cost half the game to buy the colour black for a single character?It was like $15 per skin, now it's $10, I think.
>>559730443Why are you talking to an avatarfag like it's human?
>>559729862Thief. after Nona I mean.
>>559730289underage b&
>>559730645Still insane.
>>559730690I wasn't, I was asking you guys to diagnose this creature
>escaped outpost with a blue m77, green v66, and a blue vandal coreA trifling victory, but a victory nonetheless.
>>559730726Based wormfucker
Is the MIDA tagging mission still bugged?
>>559730457thief is OP and can do Ukraine war drone tactics in addition to grapple shenanigansvandal is OP and can gunarm you before halo BR headshotting you while you're too stunlocked by her gunarm to fight back
>>559730956By bugged you mean the places to tag aren't shown on the map?Yeah I think so. you can still do it by running around and checking buildings one by one.
>>559731057Yeah that, alright. Might just freekit it sounds like a pain in the ass to bring a real kit for that
how i feel having my teammates follow my lead as i ping an enemy team and instigate a battle knowing full well i'm retarded while running a sponsored kit with no heals in my backpack
>>559730442no there's mastery challenges for each shell that give you black skinyou can also play triageyou can also wait for traxus or cyac to be the daily sponsored kit and get their free skins which are mostly black too
Everytime I open twitter some guy with a blue checkmark is talking about how this game is a hidden gem and that the haters are retarded.Didn't this sell well? I don't see the point in trying to convince more people to play.
>higher peak than yesterday alive game!
>marathon didn't se-11,680,000 dollars btw lowest estimate only assuming base game purchases and no MTXconsole populations will be 2x that
>>559731429cool, very nicenow let's see Marathon's budget
12 games today and not one exfil (i have been grinding my contracts)
Is the game good? Do you see it having a future?
>>559731350People with blue checkmarks arent trying to convince you of anything, theyre just trying to get engagement cause they get paid for it. In this case, theyre baiting the shit flingers of the sort that you see here and in the steam forum
>>559730995>thief is OPis she tho>can do Ukraine war drone tactics in addition to grapple shenanigansThe drone thing is niche and her grapple movement is slow
What happens if me and my teammate exfiltrate but the one doesn't?
>>559731569Futhermore, i would be very curious to know what the marketing budget was by itself
Death waits for the slightest lapse in concentration.
>Finishers recharge shieldsGot damn there's so much I still haven't figured out about this game.
>>559731894only if you have the implant for it
>>559731429None of us actually care the games lack of content is the only reason this is even relevant. It's built like an MVP.
>>559731880He gets raped and left behind to wait for another exfil
>>559730995>thief is OP and can do Ukraine war drone tacticsBig red light drone, just shoot it.
>>559728546this game needed an individual shell progression thing going on for it and i think having frugil ass implants and mods was kinda fuckin stupid
>>559731569>>559731881Doesn't matter, the game is popular.
>>559732040I keep my stuff if he doesn't?
>>559731701To anyone who owns the game? Yes and yes. To arc raiders? Hah!
>>559731881actually, I don't think it was that big(well outside of astroturfing budget maybe but pretty sure those guys are doing it for free) sure there were some sponsored twitch streams and stuff but honestly there wasn't that much marketing yetmaybe they're saving it for the big content drop in a month
>>559732080you aiming is suspicious
>>559732132As long as you get out you keep your stuff regardless of anyone else in the team
>>559732354They're playing on console. The aim assist is doing all the work for them. Get a couple aim upgrades and it's like you have aim bot.
>>559732354
>random fill trios on marsh>one guy fucks off to the other side of the maps gets killed>me and the other guy going to maintenance to get rods>i find my rods and solo exfil nearby>teammate goes and trys to res other guy>get called a faggot niggerthis game is alright
>hear exfil shortly after spawning>sprint toward it, knife ready>they have smoke deployed>lunge into the cloud swinging>pic relatedoops
>>559732080>this level of aim assist just to get beamed by a PC player anywaykek
>>559732080Faggots like this is why games need a mandatory crossplay off function.
>>559732718I hate how this game creates main character syndrome7 out of 10 times I get a teammate who makes a straight line to another spawn point to just get killed while me and another teammate are trying to take our time.Mf, I aint taking a beeline to get gun downed by a team of three that just spawned in, gotta let mfs a minute or two to be head in, ass up in a container and then take the ops out.
Do any campers who sit motionless for 19 minutes and then finally get the drop on someone and barely kill them actually feel any sense of accomplishment?
>>559732791>beamed by a PC playerImplying I'll ever reveal myself at long range. I can sit still and listen till Jesus comes back.>But recon pingVisible when active>But Thief XrayShe can't do shit if she sees me anyone, will piss herself because of Spider-bot.
>>559732743some rook slithered into my exfil at like 2 seconds left, i was impressed
>>559732950Yes?
>less than 1 in 10 games has teammates who communicate via voicewhy is this
>>559731701>Is the game good? It's a good game for trios who want to just pvp, but there are a lot of games like that. I don't think extraction makes Marathon any better and at worst will just be an annoying thing weighing the game down instead of making it better. >Do you see it having a future?Unless Cryo Archive is crazy and changes the game drastically, no. I think people will just slowly leave the game, more and more after each wipe. Even reviewers I see who say the games great also think it has no x-factor, something to keep you coming back.You can shit on Arc Raiders all you want but Arc Raiders had a lot more ways to play which made it fun for longer. You could play it solo, duo, trio and focus on pvp, pve, both or fighting bosses. In Marathon you can't even do duos and solos are obviously unbalanced since everythings designed around trios. You basically can only do trios, even then the game is to just pvp since the pve in Marathons pretty bad. Theres basically only a single enemy type in Marathon that isn't a turret or a spider and they're just bullet sponges that aren't fun to fight and the "bosses" are just the same robot enemy but with more hp which is boring.
Does the anomaly when stabilized still ping you on the whole map for everyone?
>>559731990No, you have a base stat for that, Finisher Siphon. I think the core makes it so it also heals you?
>>559733137Why are you playing with randoms and expecting people to communicateAre you people new to videogames
>>559732950>any sense of accomplishment?Accomplishment, loot, skill, level, XP - doesn't matter.Ruining a match for someone who brought a nice kit, matters.Your experience is the target, nothing else.
Holy shit Rooks are sneaky fuckers.>be moving towards armory door that needs 3 keys>assassin walks ahead>instantly shanked by a rook hiding in a corner that made no noise at all>blast the rook with bully and continue onThey’re fucking scary.
>>559733273my kit doesn't matter, i've lost both decent and sponsored shit kits to these """people"""
>>559733142Marathon fucked up so hard by not including mini pve dungeons to make mercs work together.
does destroyer have higher hp or somethingI dont really see why anyone would want to pick him
machine guns are not actually that bad, nobody knows how to deal with the frontal shield and as such it's usually an easy kill in solo or trio
>>559733659assuming there is no cover for who you're shooting at, you have time to ADS and they don't start firing first, sure LMG is alright.
>>559730690>avatarfagWe're on an imageboard you retarded porchmonkey
>>559733512most loot is found in indoor areasthe knife is freedestroyer has a shield that lets him close to melee even over longer rangesdestroyer has a sprint boost that when used can let you literally spawn kill other players on match start
>>559731701there seems to be an active hate campaign against this game (similar to gacha tribal wars). I like it better than Arc Raiders(i never really liked arc to begin with i have like 40 hrs on the game) We'll see what bungie does, i do think we are gonna need some more pve variety on the maps
This game should've been F2P. People could at least take the time to learn without feeling pressure
>>559733853cope
are some weapons just really fucking rare? i have not seen any of the other snipers or shotguns OR railguns a single time, not even in the server slam
>>559732118Define popular
>>559733968The rare weapons are more common inside Pinwheel on Outpost
>>559733838>seems to be an active hate campaign against this gameProbably because it's the equivalent of making a Fortnite clone and calling it a Deus Ex reboot.
>>559734021A middling success for a middling game.
>>559734030that invis dude was deaf or what
this will not affect the outcome
>>559734112i think he was trying to be cheeky and steal the TP out. theres no way he didnt see us cause we were blowing up robots like 2 seconds earlier.
Why didn't I get credits for this thing?
>>559734112assassin players are usually retarded
>>559734094I'd say Syndicate Black Ops or Neo Tokyo is a better successor to Deus Ex than Human Revolution imho
where is the supposed gear based matchmaking I heard so much ado about? why am I getting matched up with a 1.5k green shield backpack healing items kit with two retarded freekits that go to opposite ends of the map?are the player numbers already so bad that the matchmaking is breaking down?
>>559734021>same image that's been posted in these threads on and off for the past 2 days>1772987764415284m>genuinely believes that a game with a peak of 70k per day isn't "popular"It's doing better than other games in it's genre right now (Tarkov) and it's top 20 on steam. If you want to actually look at numbers then consider that Marathon has probably 2x the population on console than PC, and some of the games on steam's top charts don't have a console release.I will continue to let you cope though, phoneposting fag
>>559731701>Is the game good?Yes>Do you see it having a future?My head is exploding with how good the game is yet how fucked it is, it'll never make its money back which these days means more likely than not it'll get shuttered. I fucking hate sony, really dislike modern bungie, and yet I want this game to succeed because it's genuinely refreshing. I'l be finally fully disillusioned with the industry if they don't suck it up and stand by this game, but they probably won't
>>559734334>>559734478we're listening
>>559734118post results pussy
>>559734478>1.5k green shield backpack healing items kit with two retarded freekitskek. anon is too retarded to know these things are more similar than they are different
>>559734654just died, got cornered by a shield cunt robot inside a room where both exit doors had hacker things and a sentry turret by it. killed 5 robots, but alas. really riveting not dying to a player with purple gear sitting on a rooftop though!
>>559734021>$20 indiesloppa has more players than a hardcore extraction shooterfork found in kitchen
>>559734596>it'll never make its money backthis. it would have to have like 1m concurrent players to not be written off as a loss. if they were smarter they would have made character customization WAAAY more complex instead of just having skins.
what is it with you people and indians
Just had 2 good games where we got my Traxus contracts done and survived player encounters. Maybe this means people are less retarded now.
keyboard player beat me, but i won't cry about it
>>559734723complete, utter and total coping
>>559733137why would I ever talk to randomsI'd rather shove rusty nails in my eardrums than hear some nigger with open mic blasting ape music or some gamerdad with his wife's children screaming in the background or even worse a redditor tranny
>>559734957You're the one coping by thinking you're superior to other players by have the absolute bottom of the barrel minimum non-free loadout
I think Marathon could live, so long as Bungie does not listen to Destiny players in regards to the game's balance.
are the megagigacorps about to discover FTL travel, or are they all just going to go "alright, we heard enough, we're launching our armies, see you in 150 years!"
>game start>teammate pings Hauler
How would you make shields more interesting than just a single item that functions as an extra healthbar that uses its own special medkits?
>>559735034>free kit scrub angry that others don't want to carry him
I am kind of hoping they nerf Triage. The healing is just flat out busted.
>>559735039Bungie has not once in their lives listened to anyone but themselves.
>>559735054I still don't get where runners are coming from, are they getting beamed from a station in the systems orbit or from further away?
Green shields and backpacks are hard to find bwo
>>559734603>>559734334Apparently it's a visual bug but still gives you the 2k.
>>559735087>>559735034btw this has happened when I had full blue 5k value kit as well, you absolute retard
>>559735158Even if you hardly Rook, you get plenty of them just by completing fucking contracts
>>559735054Transporting robuts with moleculer transportation and using runners is the new meta
I wish I was Thief...
I stole some blue shields, and or backpacks, and some blue guns. But I still only camp with free kit.
Did they even test this shit? How am I even supposed to acquire toxic weapons again?I had one implant for melee toxic damage and a chem grenade. I killed 7 or 8 UESC with it and threw the grenade at the others. And of course I got jumped by vultures after that. This shit is not possible, not even in solo and not really in squads either. Only premade groups with toxic damage already equipped can even try to compete in this.And I don't even know how to get back after this. Chem grenades are locked in MIDA upgrades, it requires rank 12. Guess what rank I'm at after 35 hours? Fucking third rank.They fucked up on all fronts. They are doing the same thing Highguard did, testing the game only with premade mic squads and forgetting about randos and solochads.
>>559735383you don't need to do this random sub-contract right this second, take a breath bro
>>559735383>Did they even test this shit?bro there was an exploit that was as simple as logging in and out of the game that gave you infinite silk, they didn't test shit.
>>559735238Bro I ran out of them. It’s a good day when I manage to steal someone else’s. Praise be to White Jesus, protect me from these feral nigger assassins.
>>559735347>I wish I was Thief...I would catch you off guard and bend you over with sexual harassment intentions
>they fucked up>did they even test this?>only people who are good at the game can do this!>and i dont know how to play the game, the game should play for me!arc raider player gets their first taste of a real videogame
>>559735602>>only people who are good at the game can do this!>>and i dont know how to play the game, the game should play for me!I hate Arc negroids beyond repair, and I played that shit for 300 hours(extract ambush only, in PvE lobbies only, with reverse boosting).
>play all day yesterday>all day today>10 silkUh... did they break something? I haven't been able to get anything from the battlepass in like 2 days...
>lay claymore>get a kill 15 mins later
>>559735580I wouldn't resist
>>559735383It is kind of weirdI had the one where it says 'kill hostiles with runner abilities' for secgen and the spider bot doesn't count for that. I guess I have to use Destroyer's rockets?
>maintenance on Dire Marsh absolutely FLUSH with pre-placed Claymores all over the garage side leading towards the main building in my last run
>>559735834You should pretend to resist, to make it fun
>>559735145No they definitely listened to raiders and pvpers in destiny, which led to disastrous results
>>559735978Destiny dying was the community's fault.
will I make people angry I run free kit squad fill on outpost? genuine question
>>559735978they listened to streamers*
>>559736181maybe but who cares lol
>>559735383Either reroll or save the contract for the next time you loot a chem grenade
>>559736083Destiny ultimately died due to Bungie's retardation and to accomodate for Marathon. They changed the game fundamentally for the worse.
>>559736083Yeah, the same reason we didnt get megaman legends 3, it was the communitys fault.
Have you had a moment where it made you think>Wait a minute… I’m white! Haha!For me, it’s watching two Riggas duke it out over the last bit of chicken bone marrow the white man left behind, then walking to the exfil.
>>559736181>will I make people angry I run free kit squad fill on outpost?
>>559736512no that was capcom's faultthe reason destiny 2 died is because destiny players are retarded and they suggested constantly the wrong things to bungie and then they threw a massive fit over and over againremember crafting weapons?
>>559735928maintenance is absolutely fucked, I fucking hate that the introductary quest (no, the first one after the literal introduction) to traxus forces you to not only go there, not only get 2 rare fucking items (you know, before anyone has looted anything at all in there) but then exfil out of there as well. if you don't spawn specifically next to it, you are fucked.if you don't just so happen to get the drop on the campers on the roof, you are fucked if a single robot gets aggroed and pulls you into a firefight, you are fuckedif your teammates do anything suboptimal, you are fuckedif you simply don't find the right rare items instantly and GTFO at once and also manage to exfil, you are fucked
why are they like this
>>559737041>having a practice range will make the game more sweatyhow
>>559736181tempted to squad fill with randoms and then just afk to full them over.
I got extract camped by rook because I stayed in the map too long
haha lol guess i should just not have spawned in the open with a trio having a vantage point on me haha whoops
Just ruined someones evening, they are definitely uninstalling
>>559737041He's right, arc raiders having a practice range made the game turbo sweaty.
>>559737352You fucking bitch that was my purple organ thing
>>559737352Anyone still playing now is in for the long haul
I wish more of the logs were voiced. ONI-chan has a great voice for it.
>>559737041Practice range lets the optimization troons quickly build out the meta.
>>559736689>crafting bad is a bungie asslicker
>>559737250This reminds me of when I was going to an extract near West Gate on Dire Marsh, heard gunshots from someone fighting UESC. I see him obviously getting shot in the truck next to the exfil so I duck under it. I hear him moving around a while, take some more gunfire but then the UESC dropped aggro. I assumed he was able to hide and waited 5 whole minutes preparing to outrat him when he went for the exfil at the final minute. 45 seconds left in the match, I crouch walked out and he was just dead on the floor in front of the truck.
>>559737481>I wish more of the logs were voicedmy meat log makes funny voices in you buttor that's just the air popping out with each push
This game's rule 34 is lacking.
Player numbers have stabilized, therefore I have purchased the game. Are anons here adding each other to party up with? Or is everyone here solofagging?
>>559737539>>559737392why are you guys like this
give me more vault space arghgjg
>>559737634They constantly went back and forth like 2 times over dude. They refused to stick to a vision and they second-guessed themselves numerous times.>BUNGIE WE WANT SOMETHING TO WORK TOWARDS >"okay we'll give you something to work with">NO NOT LIKE THAT
>>559737746there is some yuri stuff......
/dg/ continues to cope that we are stable at 70k each dayguess they're upset about being unable to hit 10k players lol
>>559737746Vandal bouncing on bbc
>>559737772see the OP for the discord if you want to organize playing with anons
>>559737826Dont wanna see that epstein stuff sorry
>>559737772never share id with /vg/, you get hacked and reported
>>559731701>Is the game good? I think so, yes>Do you see it having a future?Unfortunately no, but I'll still play it while I can
>MIDA and SekGen contracts wanting me to go to Outpost now>Traxus will probably start doing that soon as well I'm not built for this shit, my vault is lacking, I don't have blue shields unlocked yet and I've barely got any good core/implant unlocks.
>>559737959>discordnot in a million years
>>559737921bungie fans truly are raped individuals
>>559731701it's an acquired taste, most likely we'll see only 3k players by May
>>559737813but that was because of streamers bitching about it>2 times3 actually, one of the first vidoc mentioned it was more about extracting the perks and stapling it on another gun
>>559738150stay friendless then lol
i didnt like marathon, marathon is the crash of extraction shooterswe need the pop 2 of extraction shooters
>>559737921/dg/ actively tells people to not play the game (D2), they don't care about the pop.
what's the point of Rook if you get free kits?
>happen upon a team that is currently getting the drop on another team>we wait for them to wrap up and get the drop on them>while finishing up that team and moving to revive our one downed teammate another team gets the drop on ussuch is life in the Maintenance zone
>>559738553you can upgrade rook to make his free kit even better
>>559737481small indie company I actually like the lore but fuck could they try a lot harder to convey it
>down 2 guys>teammates lose a 2v1 to their last player, he one taps me immediately after since I had no healthHOW FUCKING BAD ARE YOU THAT YOU CAN’T KILL ONE GUYHE CAN ONLY FUCKING AIM AT ONE OF YOU
>>559738553The freekit sponsor kits + solo queues was I think honestly a last minute band-aid solution to attract people who liked how Arc Raiders does it. It feels counterfactual to the actual design of Tarkov where you just have the PMC queue (solo and parties get put into the same map) and SCAVs (same thing).
>>559738632multigenerational colony ships getting spooky ahh alien shit done to them is a super cool concept...
>>559738791Unlimited free kits was the right move honestly. Making Rook mandatory would’ve been a massive blunder
>>559738791I expect them to make it not shit later but I feel like Rook was supposed to be their answer for people who want to play solo.>>559738947Rook just needs to be able to do missions.
>>559738361stop being a whore or I'll do something bad to you
it's been confirmed cryo archives will be pvp only
>>559739182thank fuck
>>559738947The issue is there's basically no reason to play Rook until you get more upgrades for him, unless you really want to ruin a Trio's day.
>>559737027One time I looted 2 rods and didnt tell my teammates who had the contract. I didn't even have the contract myself. I extracted with them.
>>559739182
Sex
>>559739108>>559739302Rook with upgrades is admittedly way fucking better than a free kit.
>>559737310>run time 1m9sGit gud
>>559739182Probably not the wisest move.
>>559739182where did they confirm that?
>>559739182I imagine it will be a transit from outpost into a pve only area like terminal on tarky
The lack of teaming up by anons makes me think 70% of the thread is just here to watch it burn.
>>559739182Who cares about PvE in an extraction shooter god you guys are fucking retarded
>>559739490
>>559739805/dg/ was very dox happy, rather not risk it
>>559739182>it's been confirmed cryo archives will be pvp only>>559739890BASED BASED FUCK ARC SHITTERS FUCK CASUALS I hate nigroids
Had 3 great runs in a row, got 3 Traxus contracts done, even clutched a player fight in one of them. Going to bed on a high.
>>559739805a good portion is, and anons in general are autistic>>559739920astroturfing, nobody cares
>>559739890I want to kill all the server slam niggers and beta testers who said there wasn't enough pvp
how do i get more magnums?
I am unironically having a friggin blast
>>559739890How could it possible be MORE pvp centric than Outpost, an actual meatgrinder map?
>>559739890Ah yes, how do we make our niche game even more niche? Bravo bungo
>>559739890>more pvp centric
>>559740081next map will a be quake 3 arena, trust
>>559739890>more pvp centricMore than whatMore than fucking what.
>>559739890So essentially cryo archive is a battle royale map with a big golden reward at the end for the winners, amazing.

>>559740714you give Bungie too much credit
>>559740658It's so blatant I actually wonder if the real plan was to fleece people out of 40 then drive away their own player base as an excuse to go f2p in record time and adding in actual pve elements. The other thing is how laughably clear this game having no balance around solo is.

thiefsisters...
>>559738947>>559738791There are a lot of aspects in the game where you can clearly tell there was original intent that was changed during development like the DCON's originally being a "safe pocket" you could use mid-mission.Sponsored kits were definitely paid or only 1-2 free uses a day at some point in development, which makes sense when you are supposed to be using Rook to gather gear. I am also 100% sure this is the reason everyone always complains about their vault being full. If you were constantly using gear it would be significantly less likely to fill up. I think two flaws with Rook were realized.I think one of the major reasons it was changed is that in a game built on playing with your friends in squads forcing a player to play on their own if they run out of gear is kind of a stupid design choice.They also support players just braindead rushing to PVP constantly because there's no downside to doing it just like Arc Raiders. You all die? Oh well load in again with another free kit. I would not be surprised if later on they take away the free kits.
Spreading like Vandal sissy's booty hole
I actually like freekit on freekit violence
>>559742229OH SWEET FUCKING JESUS ANON WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?!
>>559741009I’m surprised it even has such a high player count. This is as hardcore a game as it gets. A horror low TTk extraction shooter with built in ARGs for story. If this didn’t have Bungie or Marathon’s name to it, would anyone really be playing it? Probably 7k.
>>559742229Based anti-astroturfing.
>>559742427I only camp and ambush. No PvE, no (((fair))) fights.
the game fucking sucks and its boring, i just dont get the appeal of extraction shooters.im kinda a bit bothered that i also quit cuz i suck, the game sucks and i suck so its not a clear win on me, what to do?
>>559742605you still need to kill yourself when you spawn in anon your plan is a double standard if you don't

Lore kings, do you think the Heat Cascade on Outpost are from anti-air cannons that were fighting Pfhor ships originally?
Cryo will be this but with more incentives to camp, outpost style interiors to the max and a giga raid boss to kill you for the br experience with only one exfil thats guarded and locked

do you think Vandal takes it up the ass between runs?
>>559743040>my sis and friendsI wish i had a sister, or firiends, or both... playing games would be fun then.
Genuinely, glossing over of the bullshit and lol lmao it's hardcore shitposting. What exactly stands out about this game to (You) that actually makes it unique than what the other extraction shooters have done and honestly refined to a point? Because, the more I play the more I feel like the others within the genre have done more foundationally than the path marathons taking.
>>559748150arguably the worst starter kit imo, in general those "precision" rifles suck in 99% of scenarios

>>559748408The lore and aesthetics of this game are next level. It makes Arc's lore look like it was written by a child. I love the visual design of everything.Also, I don't see why Marathon needs to reinvent the wheel.
you guys are kinda retarded playing extraction shootan slop, multiplayer is kind of a waste of time imoim going to read the lore, if they indeed turned durandal into a cat i stop reading the chungus lore and im gonna wait for my streamers to play this shit + beat my meat/stroke my shii while i wait
>>559749269Yeah I'm basically always looking for a volt weapon from the first clankers I kill
>retards learning in real time you don't need to radically alter gameplay conventions and structures, you just need them to feel good while doing something unique narratively or visually
>>559749283I'm not saying it needs to reinvent the wheel, but nothing really seems all to striking to me outside of the environment and what little lore I've been able to get.

STOP GIVING ME KEEEEEEEEEYSI already sold 15 of them and I'm too pussy to take them into a raid aloneAnd why the fuck is 4chan so fucking ass now. I've been getting one error message after the other. I can't even post with pictures anymore.
>>559749608I've only ever found one key that I am never going to use because there's no butt pocket. I've used lockbox keys before but at least I can buy those.
>>559749657You can buy keys too if you rank up a bit more
Real niggas go in with nothing but a knife
does this game have more/less to do than Arc Raiders when it comes to content out of raid?
>>559749430It's fun
>>559749526Ok.
>>559749882i see the fun it just isnt fun to me, i just dont get extraction shooters. or pvp. i dont get pvp and playing with randoms, a pve extraction/roguelike i would play
what is with these people? what causes someone to continue to want broken shit in a videogame?is it because they abuse it?i dont understand. dont you want your competitive game to be fair?
>>559749845about the same in terms of raw content but arc's bosses mog marathon's bosses in terms of fun factoron the other hand pinwheel base mogs hidden bunker so i guess it's a tradeoff
>>559734827I would be playing this right now if it had character customization.
>>559749781good 2 know
Does anyone else's game melee every single time they leave the inventory screen?
People do not want to co-op at all in this game. I tell my teammates, “Why are you killing Rooks?”, the Rook can’t do anything against us three if it’s on our side. Nope, shoot everything on sight and take their OS Debug packs. This game is going to gain a stupid “Dark Souls” tier elitism. I rolled my eyes t the “Welcome to Marathon” cheevo, and the amount of people I’ve seen unironically say “Welcome to Marathon bitch” or “this isn’t arc raiders pussy” is cringe.
>>559750164god i love seeing pve arc players get mad in this game
>>559748408The fast turnaround is addicting and it's just a good all-round extraction shooter.I loved Tarkov's inventory management but it obviously can be a bit much, and overall I've just played more than my fill of that game. Plus they keep fucking it up and the cheating epidemic was absurd.Hunt is frustrating because the extraction shooter elements feel half baked and like they distract from the very good core gameplay. The PvE was super involved but it was lame and clearly not the point. The pvp was fun, but you spent like half an hour to get into a 2 minute gunfight over and over again, and I would just ask myself why it wasn't a TDM game.I never played Arc because I'm not a reddit dad that wants a nice friendly chungus game. Nothing about it was appealing enough to make me boot into windows instead of Linux.
>>559750164But what is it that inherently discourages people to be friendly? even to tolerate another player.As a rook youre going to die on sight, there is no chance for interaction with any player. The only time I get to prox chat with people is when theyre already down.Is it really just a tantrum over arc raiders being too much of a hugbox that the pvpfags moved over>>559750275Relax man its not illegal to talk about stuff
marathon... saved...!!
>>559750414>Relax man its not illegal to talk about stuffthis is an odd response
>>559750164>Why are you killing Rooks?>the Rook can’t do anything against us three if it’s on our sideThat's why. Rooks are at best lootbags, and at worst looking for a chance to backstab you. I'd sooner collaborate with an enemy team, because at least they have something to loose.
>>559750465>turned recon into a dudetrans agenda wokoid slop
>>559750414>But what is it that inherently discourages people to be friendly? even to tolerate another playerYou do not have ANY time to assess if someone is friendly. If you hesitate to open fire you're dead.
>>559750164im sorry i just wiped a squad with a rook?
>>559749005People genuinely think marathon is underperforming lmao
>>559750513no it really isnt, just because anon wants to talk about the pvp and overly hostile vibe to the game. the marketing is the same souls bullshit and the red invader man mindset is universal to people. its odd
>>559750164>the Rook can’t do anything against us three if it’s on our side.i mean that's just not true, he can easily backstab you if you happen to get into a fight with uesc, but i agree the community is definitely faggy about being le hardcore pvp gods. i think it's mostly a reflexive reaction to the arc community's fagginess about being le chill pve dad gamers>>559750414>But what is it that inherently discourages people to be friendly? even to tolerate another player.the low ttk means whoever shoots first wins, 1v3s are a bit harder but still very possible if you catch the trio off guard. no one wants to risk buddying up if your buddy can instakill you the second you open a container
>>559750275Arc reddit dads are really amazing to piss off
>>559750164>“Why are you killing Rooks?”, the Rook can’t do anything against us three if it’s on our side.nigga these rooks will forms groups and hunt down people with precision i am not taking any risks, its happened to me twice already
>>559750465Worst part about AI is enabling retarded jeets like that.
>>559750015The thing is there's no armor or real differentiation between shields besides rarity so a shotgun is automatically the most powerful weapon next to a sniper
>>559750414>But what is it that inherently discourages people to be friendly? even to tolerate another player.the ttk. the only reason arc facilitates any amount of friendliness is the general unlikelihood of getting instantly downed
>>559750164>Why are you killing RooksBecause I want their shit?
im addicted to this game anonsits so good
I HATE DIRE MARSH I HATE DIRE MARSH I HATE DIRE MARSH
>>559750164>“Why are you killing Rooks?”, the Rook can’t do anything against us three if it’s on our side.A rook can easily wipe your team if he strikes at the right moment while you're fighting another team or a bunch of AI

>>559751642
>>559752136I'm like 90% sure that Vulcan is the lion and that the wires protruding from its head connect to the orange humanoid body to communicate because lions can't talk. Basically, Vulcan is autistic and made her avatar as strange and complex as possible, probably symbolic of Traxus being an apex predator that hides behind "approachable" customer service reps
>>559752171My impression was that's canonically what shells look like after getting revived a few times, after brief periods of decay build up combined with direct battle damage
>>559752273your useless fucking white cores
>>559752136Hang on *zooms in*, are those cyber-dogs out? We NEED Vulcan femdom footjob art.
>>559752136Isn’t this the demiurgeBungie u not clever
>>559749657>never going to usewhat map? you can easily get away with looting it last minute and taking the final extract if you are that afraid
>>559751532Liar!!! You have NO gf to play marathon with! Or act on that pic with!
So when is the General Sam video?
>>559751929I think some artists are taking request/ko-fi requests (i.e give a donation) if you really want it done, would be funny to see
>>559752390No retard, it's Babylon the Great
>>559752273>what should i liberally use?all the ammo and patch/shields>what can i trash/sell? cores and implants you know you wont be getting use out of, delete the os debug/mechanics kits or bring them with you
>>559752494cute kaguya
>>559752273You're only starting so everything seems valuable, but the real answer is that only specific guns you like and blue+ items are worth keeping (excluding materials/meds). If you have a bunch of gray or green equipment, just use it. Even if you die and lose it, you'll inevitably end up with more than you need again
>>559751532>marathon is bringing a new wave of lewd pictures catering specifically to my fetish for lesbian robots
>>559752583>>559752676>>559752340thanks anons ill just use all my white shit since the free cyberacme pack comes with it all anyways
>>559751532>>559752283I wish I was Thief...
>Food shortages>Unknown Viruses/Sickness >The Anomaly>The Pfhor invasion>AI's going through rampancy>Cults worshiping the PfhorThe colony of Tau Ceti IV really went through the worst shit.
>>559752896I am literally Vandal...
>Play as a duo>third random without fail every single run is never with us for pvp and is off just kinda doing nothing>every single time without failAmazing
>>559752772it's true
>>559752273Cores can generally go unless you plan to use them, as can grenades. Ammo becomes a bit of a cost sink eventually but you can just buy it.Remember that high rarity weapons are just mods on a gun; you can strip them and use/sell the gun.>>559752676I would never sell a shield/backpack before you can buy it.
>>559752909surprised the infrastructure is still pretty much in one piecewould like to see the colony proper though
>>559751532when are the models gonna be ripped so we can get 3d porn of vandal?
>>559753156To be fair, I said specifically to use them, not sell them
>>559753345the models already have been
>>559752909even their robo cats randomly brick after 2 days
>>559752909If you watched Raised By Wolves, it had a similar kind of fucked plot
>>559752325the full shot makes it look like she's the one on the leash and the lion is holding it, i think the lion is supposed to represent traxus and vulcan is purely a puppet for the will of the corporation
Not sure where to turn but I thought I'd give a crack at asking /mg/ on 4chan; I guess I'm more a tourist anymore than being here for some time.I'm really enjoying Marathon but I come from a background of mostly PvE games.How do I get better and improve playing at a game like this? When I play I don't really have any deep thinking and just vibe - it's hard for me to focus really and aiming for me is miserable too. I'm crouching and walking while in doors and around a buildings location and swapping to knife to travel distances between locations but outside that I don't know how to really improve.Everyone recommends the Volt Thrower but I must not be using it right because I could get the beat on another player, have them be fully turned from me, lock on with the Thrower go in on them, have them turn and killing me outright instantly; while both of us are at full green shields (in this example)I don't know how to clutch or how to do anything - it doesn't bother me but I get so upset going in on teams of three and just basically the reason they lose seven or eight out of ten times in a confrontation. I don't know fucking why but playing shooters any sort of Critical Thinking is just fucking gone.Is there anything I can do to improve because throwing myself against the wall isn't working and positioning isn't it either because I can be on someone and they still win 100% of the times even though I'm landing my shots even if my aim is fucking horrible.Do I get one of those FPS trainers from Steam? I don't know what to do or where to even begin.
>>559753057nothing beats just you having a mic and you bumrush the first complex close to you, start shooting every robot you see, sprint into every room looting shit and then die to a squad on the other side of the complex in a room while you're still just tryin to play nice and slow
>>559753494I was literally just thinking this is like a mix of Annihilation, Raised By Wolves and Solaris
>>559753517just be in positions in your favor preaiming around corners where they could be helps. listen to sounds.if someones only way to you is through a door, just make sure you're lined up to shoot them in the head as they go into the frame of the doori dunno man you ever play a shooter?
>>559753517go back to shart raiders
>>559753517>Everyone recommends the Volt Thrower but I must not be using it right because I could get the beat on another player, have them be fully turned from me, lock on with the Thrower go in on them, have them turn and killing me outright instantly; while both of us are at full green shields (in this example)Are you like, not ADSing? It's bullets lock on, you shouldn't be missing. Getting the drop on a mutual green shield can lead to a kill.
>>559753694I only ever play PvE related shooters like Destiny franchise but even then I'm horrible at it - I mean Ive been playing shooters all my life off and on with any other game related to PvE
>>559753517i mean there's no harm in using aimlabs or similar software, developing better aim can only help you, but aim isn't your problem if you're dying that much. you just need to develop situational awareness desu. are you wearing a headset and paying attention to audio cues? because that's 90% of it, you already know you should be crouching around in unknown locations, you just need to be able to get the drop on people and knowing where their gunshots/footsteps are coming from is how you get the drop on people
>>559753517>How do I get better and improve playing at a game like this?in terms of pvp the element of surprise is a MUSTyou can take down anyone as long as you flank them properly and get the jump on them without them knowing you are theremake sure to always avoid drawing bot attention when trying to get the drop on people and if things get dire be sure to have the bots between you and the people gunning for you
marathon has a balancing problem
>>559753517sound is king in games like this, listen for footsteps etcif you hear gunfire, note the direction and anticipate that those players may be coming towards you
Guess which retard ran off on their own, died to a trio, and then made me play duos against the very same trio
i know it's never going to get fixed because crucible exists and for bungie pvp just means shotguns but holy shit the double barrel is retarded
i'll never understand the brains of people who execute you seconds before the extraction's about to go off you can't even loot my shit you fuck
>>559753859the obvious vandal fag
it's nuts how every core below blue tier is basically never worth bringing along due to it just inflating the gear tier you get matched against for no benefit.even the blue ones are not that great
>>559754070maybe they had the arachne contract
>>559754070If we can't have it neither can you.
>>559754070ive had it happen to me, by another rook... even after i was talking to him
>>559754070>who execute you seconds before the extraction's about to go off you can't even loot my shit you fuckits about sending a message
>>559753427ok then wheres my video of vandal getting fuck from every hole??
>>559754114I wish
>>559754169>“lol” said the scorpion “lmao”
>>559754129yeah a lot of that shit is just so pointless and just bloats everything. ill gladly put it on with a sponsor kit but i do not like sittin there being picky and choosy about shit like that when i can get shot in the back makin sure its "good"
>>559754260patience
>>559754243whats the little caution hologram tape on the door supposed to me?
>>559754129>the gear tier you get matched againstyou can go in with a free kit and go up against people with blues and purples, i sincerely doubt there's any "gear matchmaking" at all outside maybe the ranked mode
>>559754070I was once camping by a guarded extraction knowing another player was nearby, and as it was primed and beginning to teleport them, I jumped out of cover and sprinted in. They had been downed by the robots, and before I even realized what I was doing, I was kneeling over their stabbed body less than a second before being sent up
>>559754305>he doesn't get the 2% bonus to reload speed when emped while under the effect of cardio kick four seconds after killing a tick nestbricked run ngmi
>>559752335So how does that explain when you boot up as midnight decay after losing a run? The new shell is printed and it's already damaged and covered in blood? What?
>>559752518His nuclear sunset video made me cringe with how badly he was planning and in a way that the mod collections makers clearly didn't intend (he was not immersing himself and instead decided to just grab everything like common rabble fallout players)
>>559754481Wait wasn't Bungie making a big ado about this?How are they going to prevent new players from getting repeatedly farmed by streamers in yellows?
>>559754243I'd uninstall
>haven't played in a couple days>forgot what i was doing>vault full of shields and backpacksim just gonna sell it all and start over from 0 aside from upgrade materials
>>559754742bro literally just read one (1) paragraph
>>559750465thats bait no fuckin way
why did they think that they should punish whoever takes initiative on an objective, event, etc?
>>559754315
>>559753517Have a mic. Also if you play this like a stealth game and extract near immediately after getting your objectives done, it's not too bad.
Ok... i have a contract to go to Columns. My past 5 runs have spawned me ALL THE WAY UP HERE. Am I being trolled?
>>559754895Because aside from the shield, gear color doesn't actually make much difference in lethality. Guns in a better color don't do more damage. They just have better side stats like accuracy/reload/mag size etc, which help, but they don't make a lick of difference if one person gets the drop on another, or if one is much better at aiming/juking, etc.the nature of the game means those guys with decked out gear are still occasionally going to get assblasted by people in greens, or UESC, or a rook who finds them while they're looting
>>559755447not yet, you're going to get really trolled when you reach the deathmatch that is that building
The unreasonably low TTK in this game really kills it for me, it's just not fun
where the fuck is this terminal in overflow i've done 3 runs running through this place in the "2nd floor building" and have found fuck all
>>559753517What exactly happened while you were using the volt thrower? Were you at a long distance and had to deal with the slow bullet velocity? Were you breathing down their neck and they turned around with a shotgun? I'm asking because I'm not particularly good at shooters at all, but I was able to kill these people pretty fast when I was just testing to see if I was supposed to ADS while using the lockon weapons or fire from the hip, and there was nothing special about my loadout at all
Rook runs are officially the fun mode.>load in unupgraded >notice a single runner just noodlin around the big vehicle on perimeter>almost get caught a few times but manage to grab the guns they left on the ground from their looting>sneaky beaky i know UESC spawn here >sure as shit an army shows up>let them expend resources shootan bots>see them run out, low on health>my_overrun_demands_synthblood.mp2>barely able to loot one before my mask wears off and I gotta book it>2 mins left to exfil>hoof hoof hoof, oops the fucking wall goddamn it goddamn it>guarded exfil is still up>mask cooldown 30 sec>igottime>activate exfil right as my c/d is up>straight up just chill and wait for my extract>mask runs out, but they've already wandered>exfil loaded with 2 new backpacks and fuck tons of VALUE itemsMy new favorite activity.
>>559755553they really should just highlight contract specific objective items when you get within like 30 ft of one tbhdesu
why the fuck do i randomly have 150 lux
>>559755541I heard footsteps outside the whole time I was using the terminal... whew!
>>559755553pretty sure its the bottom right room in this image. the southeast room with a red computer
>>559754860His rat brain playing Tarkov for almost a decade has permanently altered his brain.
>>559756059That's already one of the updates they announced
>>559756281nice, really dislike playing wheres waldo for a 5in by 5in computer terminal in some of these huge ass complexes
>>559756080Levelling up
>>559756281>increased ammo in free loadoutsThank FUCK. That has been my biggest gripe about this game. When using free loadouts you feel like you have 0 ammo.
Marathon might be the first game that actually forces you to get over gear fear.The way the game is designed really pushes you to risk your kit.You’re meant to bring good gear into runs, lose it sometimes, learn from it, and jump straight back in.It’s honestly refreshing compared to games where players just hoard their best gear forever.How are you dealing with gear fear so far?
You should be able to load stuff into a second backpack like you can in other extraction shooters.
Marathon Ship Key discoveredA player found this “MARATHON C.04 – Prestige Key” on a runner while extracting at Dire Marsh.The key references:• location uesc.marathon• zone cryo.archive• status access offline / await decryptionThis appears to be part of the Cryo Archive / Terminal puzzle the community is currently trying to solve. Players believe these keys may eventually unlock a hidden ship terminal or deeper lore tied to the UESC Marathon.So far, multiple keys like this have been discovered, but no one has fully decrypted how they’re used yet.If you’ve found one of these keys, the community is trying to track where they spawn and how they connect to the puzzle.
>>559755680I remember my first beer
So is bungie going to get shut down any time soon?
>>559756978i found C.03 on the gold stealth boss at overflow yesterday, i assume it's already known though
>crawling around building looting>suddenly exits all turn red, shutters close, commander spawns inside and starts bumrushing meWhatBut why
>>559756978I'll keep an eye out on where I got it if I somehow find one and what conditions may have happened to make it spawn (if any)
>>559756978>mfw I found one of these keys but I die before I was able to extract with it.
>>559757050Marathon isn’t for everyone, but judging by the feedback so far, it feels like the game will gradually grow in popularity over the coming weeks and months.Some people really want to see Bungie fail, but honestly… they cooked.
>>559756978>ai postthe keys are for the different cryo archive wings which cant be accessed yet now kill yourself you soulless stochastic parrot
>>559756978I saw one get looted on Perimeter when we fought the UESC Boss (the one you can see on your map) a teammate of mine took it before I could grab it, it was a yellow key though.I was playing as Triage, and the other two team members were Vandal and Assassin.
>>559757137did you run into one of the funny green lasers
>>559756978>>559757108So will Cryo Archive have different wings you need to unlock as you progress what will limit you in some way, or are they exclusive areas that can only be spawned into if you queue with the key.
>>559756978>discovered key>looted it from someone else
>>559750164>buy prisoner's dilemma: the game>surprised people aren't cooperating
>Friends dropping the game cause they keep getting 1-2 shot from snipers across the mapYeah thats not good bros
>>559757137LOCKDOWN LOCKDOWN (listen)LOCKDOWN LOCKDOWN (listen)LOCKDOWN LOCKDOWN (listen)
>>559750015Rddt os going to kill your gane, bitch
will upgrades reset after season ends? if yes i'll delete this game and eat my drive, sounds very retarded
>>559757227No, but they were all over the place.Maybe another player inside did
Guys I killed a player and discovered a purple shield...
>>559757410yes
>>559756745gear apathy... the gear mods are all over the place, so i dont read them half the timei just want to figure out why the last upgrade for the credits cap is 9milso... i want credits, and a loadout i can get comfortable with. ie the same gear each run
>>559757351Yeah snipers desperately need a nerf and they need to do it now before it makes anymore people drop the game (and it is)
>>559757356you are easily more mentally ill than this guy
>>559757410we dont know
>People dying to snipers 85% of this game is indoors, what are you doing outside?
first drop today and im scared.
>>559757768people get killed at spawn and at very long distances due to thermal snipers
>>559757948>>559757768Yeah I literally just got one tapped less than 20 seconds after spawning and this isn't the first time, it's a huge problem this game can't really afford to have right now
so when are we getting ranked? with cryo?
I'll never get inside pinwheel with randoms
have we figured out how matchmaking works yet?im very low energy tonight and i just wanna sponsor kit all my quests
Whyyyy do people randomly run ahead by themselves 200m whyyyyy>team on meYeah no shit
>>559758515>mfw I try to follow the other two and essentially escort them to maintain cohesion>both players fuck off to different directions and I have to choose which one to follow
>>559758654just play solos.5 people on perimeter6 on dire4 on outpostyou can just clear lobby and loot in peace
Constantly I'm thinking about how I'm not good at the game so if I take my good weapons someone will just steal them
>>559758515>go into complex>everyone loud as fuck killin every robot>sprinting into every room regardless of where we are because they want loot>ON ME ON ME ON MEgod on me is the worst callout shitters use. that does not fucking help one bit

I want to have sex with this character
>>559758861Sell everything, always use sponsored kits.try every shell with sponsored kits and exfil on solos.you get a themed faction shell skin for the shell you exfil with each time.enjoy.
>>559758908prove it. seen ppl confirm this number by wiping lobby multiple matches.
>>559758987Downloading my own shell to fuck.
>>559756745yeah, i just watched that youtube video too!
>>559754431>lore wiseliterally just police tape but its futuristic>gameplay wiseindicates there's a gold shield commander/warden in the area
>>559759103I know for sure I've counted more than 5 by counting kills + extracts
>>559758790>4 on outpostHorse fucking shit, I've killed 4 people just doing the sekiguchi unlock contract, and I sure as shit heard more
>/v/ really convinced a bunch of people this absolute kino was shit Dumbass sheep. I just ran around stabbing people with a knife as assassin. This game is fucking awesome
>>559759309>indicates there's a gold shield commander/warden in the areaoh thanks. thought it was like an alarm system of "IF YOU PASS THROUGH YOU WILL BE ALERTED THE WHOLE PLACE AND DIE" or something
>>559759367well the green tripwires in some locations do exactly that so stay safe out there
>>559757529>>559757351Snipers dropping you in one is fine. Snipers executing you before you can get to cover leaving your body out in the open is not.
>>559758867On me is fine if they're saying that the person is literally on them after they died. Retards who just say it to mean "I can see someone and am shooting them" need to be killed though.
will this game fix my norwood 7?
>>559757665Cope

>>559759723explain
The gunplay of this game is actually so fucking good, bungie still knows how to make a good shooter.shame it will die off because of the twitter chuds hellbent on ”concord 3” and arc raiders dadgamers on the couch finding it too punishing
im almost at 100k creds, i can nearly afford heals
>>559760047Your barters you fucking reatard?
>>559760097>just trade in a reclaimed biostripping for 3x patch kits brohmmm nyo
>people saying you can get into pinwheel through destroyed wing as rookHow? The doors are all redblocked every time I've gone there.
>>559760229shoot the four red lights scattered around the area
Will they improve the CPU performance? My graphic card is barely being used but my CPU is maxed out.
So sick of losing because every fight is ALWAYS a 2v3, it's so fucking unfair
>>559759709Genuinely, the most fun part about this game is making all the Arcfags ragequit because they can't handle PvP. It's so funny.
>>559759859Being revived by your team to keep fighting is a huge difference.Even in solos, self-revives are a thing.Making someone confirm a kill changes how it works pretty heavily.
>>559759321>>559759343Screenshots or you both liars.
>>559760229One of the doors with the red field in front should have a thing like this picture - how many red squares are still on it shows how many of the little white boxes with red lights you need to find and destroy - once you blow up all 4 the red fields go away. This picture is from a random little side bunker in Perimeter near South Relay that for some reason gets trapped to fuck sometimes and has the same mechanic from inside to leave.
no rocket launchers? in a 2026 fps shooter game?
>>559758790Are solo players not just put into regular lobbies? I have had so many 1v3 experiences I can't fathom it not working like that
how to fix game>make coomer skins>make unsc talk or have some sort of personality >make lightsabers>nerf shotguns>need hot alien faction
>>559760184>he didn't abuse the FUCK out of the smokeleaf patch kit barter
>>559760297I doubt it Bungie’s Tiger engine is held together with duck tape and rubberbands. Destiny had optimization hang ups and I’m almost starting to wonder if part of this is similar to when there was things like in Last Wish when primary ammo still had bricks when you could get guitar errors starting Queens walk if there was too many ammo bricks on ground. It’s fucky in this game
>>559760594>he doesn't know about the vandal pro-fun core
>>559760497Buddy I don't have footage from 2 days ago, I can say that I just saw 3 different people in Outpost before dying to a fourth. And I doubt the entire fucking map's worth of people were all at the same POI within 5 minutes
>>559760440Self revives, those incredibly rare and slow items? yeah lets balance around that LOL
>>559760097i didnt have the 3x barter you keep jerking off aboutthe leaves are rare
>>559760696best i can do is a tranny shader
>>559760510I saw that after killing one of the boxes, figured it was probably something like that, but didn't recognize the light that was already off and was confused because "all" three lights were onWell then
>tfw want to run outpost but have no friends and fills are godawful
>>559760947ill run w you
Just make the double barrel and the sniper single shot please alright thank you thanks Bungie appreciate it arigato goyzaimasu
The dirty little secret we'll have to eventually face is the game just isn't very well balanced. The power gap between guns is monumental.
>>559760768That explains it, you saw the other 3 ppl and one slipped away and got you. There are only 4 people solo on outpost. period.
>>559760741You can basically skate in this game too and other movement tech shit from D2. Thief can basically sprint cancel with the grapple and you don’t burn it.
>>559760947post loadout
Solo lobbies should not be this small.
>>559760947Join the discord in the OP to link up with people
>>559761080Agreed, they should be even smaller.
>Kill a team>Get good loot>Just as we finish looting another team jumps on us>kill them>before we even have a chance to heal, ANOTHER team jumps on us>dieHow the fuck are they going to spin this game as an esport? It's literally just luck or rewarding people for sitting in a corner waiting to third party last
>>559761003It’s ok we’re due for another week or two of coaching lessons from brain trusts still pretending like the game doesn’t have free as fuck aim assist and lets you beam people in a straight line. I had to stop but Outpost was just fucking boring. I mean cool to get loot but the charm is going to erode failure quick when there a not a whole else lot to the game going on. Cryo will be a mess cluster fuck and Ranked sounds too contingent on rng for a lot
>>559761194FAGGOT
>>559760947I just strictly use sponsored kits and eventually you'll get lucky
Did anybody here play one of the first play tests and have a screenshot of the pop up that has the current battle pass Vandal as a free give away for doing the test? I swear I saw that screenshot of a pop up somewhere and I’m now wondering what those people got if anything since they'd get a duplicate thing
>>559758003Literal no bullet drop in a game dipshits still are pretending it sits next to other extractions like equals. I don’t hate the game but the arena shooter fuckery gets annoying sometimes for how quick and free stuff can be.
Is there only one kind of free sponsored kit per day?
>>559760770>self revives are incredibly rareI have like eight of them sitting in my vault and I'm not even rich in this game nor am I afraid of bringing them. They also cost like 500 at nucal with a rank 12 upgrade.>and slowWow you'd have to have like, crawled behind cover and be a way from the enemy for them to work. Can't see how that could POSSIBLY counteract snipers as a problem.
>>559761003The power gap between guns is pretty in line with their cost thoughbiet
>>559760679Rooks are, but queueing solo with a normal character puts you in solo only lobbies. If you're seeing solo people in trio matches, it's either a sole survivor or, more likely, some retard that wandered off on his own
>>559761052yeah that's what I thought, you're a shitass running with the free kit
I havent seen a single railgun in the wild.
>>559761329the vandal skin was just the battle pass capstone reward in the october beta, I don't think they ever promised rewards for participating in the playtests
What sens are you guys using in game? I haven't changed it from the default which is 24.
>>559761773depends on ur dpi too man r u new to pc gaming?
>>5597617731000DPI/10
okay the boycott is over please install the game
>>559761741I saw one teammate bring it then say he was disappointed in it.
>>559761565Unlimited kits but the sponsor faction changes daily
these quests wouldn't be so bad if we could view a better map before loading in so i can fucking put a marker on it or something mentally
>>559761892bruh u barely have to move ur mouse.u must be used to that.
>>5597618571200
>>559761741>>559761906because railgun takes 3 business days to charge
>see person>deploy shield>run at them>let them shoot at shield then duck behind cover>duck back out and boost forward while they're reloading / low on ammo>WTSR.exeMan that one anon wasn't kidding about Destroyer being underrated in solos. Between that and having a free win button for fights where they're stuck in the open he's not too bad.
>>559761741I used a few in the playtest a few months ago, but not recently. The base versions feel similar in damage to the snipers, but you have to charge it. The mods are pretty crazy though, I had one that made the bullets explosive
my rook starts with a stack of claymores now... that's kind of nuts??
>>559762050You try it against any wardens? Seems like a good boss killer on paper.
>>559762032the purple one i looted takes like maybe 2s or so to charge iirc
>>559759709its so fucking funny when you chase down people in free kits and sit over them and taunt while they are downed99% chance they start talking in prox chat
>>559762032They have a mod that directly changes how fast they charge.Seems like they're a violation to the rule of mods not changing base DPS of guns.
>>559762126Didn't seem much better than just doing the classic noob combo against the bots desu. Also, I was mostly just running around killing other people and avoiding the bots when I could, so I never really used it much on em
>>559761182That was literally every team on the map btw. That is just luck, but you're not normally going to get third partied that much.
>be tired>be in squad>hardly do anything>come up to randos at north relay because fighting robots is loud as fuck>squadmate just deletes two right away>kill off another its kinda sad honestly.
I dunno, I’m bored now. Put two dozen hours into the game, but I feel like there’s no point in looting up. None of the guns really feel that amazing to control either, sans a few of the smgs with the right attachments. Sometimes you’ll down a few teams and make good, but for what really? To fuel a few more runs? I don’t get it. There’s way too much friction in the game at a base level, it’s too hard.
i don't wanna play triage!!!!!! FUCK
>>559762540you have to...
>>559762484the only hard part is how easy you die/kill with the weaponskillin a squad is so fuckin simple that i see why the redditors love it because they can feel like they "clutch" out wins because people get deleted so fast
>>559762054don't they gain passive depending on the sponsor or something like that?
>>559762540Then you VILL hand your money over to nucal
>>559762418you dont think that is going to be 100x times more common in a competitive "pro" scene?
>>559762036ayy that was me. You figured out the insta win combo
>>559762594>>559762484
>>559762235They never said dps, they said damage. there's green attachments for all the other guns that reduce reload time, increase mag size, make enemies explode when killed which all "increase dps"
>>559762616Oh as an esport an extraction shooter is a complete fucking meme obviously, the format just doesn't make any sense. But if we cared about what was competitive and high skill there'd still be major Quake tournaments going on.Also there's a reason their "tournament" is creator invite only. It's not really trying to be a pro scene, I don't think.
>>559762598No rook is a class not a kit. Rooks passive upgrades from leveling up other faction upgrades make him OP as fuck if you can get his traits unlocked
>>559762847I meant raw, non-reload DPS. Firerate is similarly sacred to damage in that aspect.Regardless point wasn't to call them out and complain or whatever it was to point out that railguns scale with attachments harder than other weapons and they're probably only decent with good attachments.
>>559761703you sound like a massive faggot so i dont want to play with you>t. punch/bullyGOD
>>559762484>Sometimes you’ll down a few teams and make good, but for what really?to test your SKILLS and to make others SUFFERto prove that you are the only one in the lobby that has a right to exist
>>559762728Nobody likes gatekeepers
Please tell me we get more interruptions from ORION in the main quests.
>>559762054Good rook play is going fucking vietcong on runner teams and it's hilarious.
>>559762927that's what I meant, do you just unlock it by leveling the faction up or do you have to buy an upgrade from said faction?
>>559763079>cardslop
>>559763131you buy enough faction upgrades to unlock the rook upgrade
>>559763079gatekeeper website
>>559763079>indieslopVideo games don't matter unless their budget is above $50 million.
>>559763117https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i43xxh09d40
im really sick of the quest format its the only reason people are such easy targets. i imagine the games more fun when you just focus on just killing everyone tryin to do quests
>>559763048>punchNever punch in this game, pull knife and rightclick. Afaik it's a guaranteed kill if their shields are down even without melee damage boosts?
>>559763201kek
>>559763291Ignoring storyline quests is liberating.
where did all the doomers go?
>kill a squad busy with robots>its 2 free kits and one guy bringing in blues and greensid hate to be that guy
>>559763291I do quests solo and brool + loot in trios, personally
>>559763396regrouping in their cope shed, huddling around a whiteboard collectively trying to come up with an argument why 75k is actually bad numbers
>>559763454i have never done solos. i imagine its more of a pain in the ass because robots are fuckin annoying to deal with
>>559763112Can't wait for the inevitable ORION rampancy
Just got the ROOK claymore perk from Mida. Where's the most evil place I can utilize it?
>>559763539Just avoid em. If you really care you can take a suppressed gun (magnum is the obvious choice if it's just for this) for tapping recruit heads, or knife them from behind. No reason to go killing commanders if you're there to do your quest.
Is there not a safe pocket in this piece of shit game?
>>559763601inside or near that vent everyone is rushing nowadays on outpost
>>559763661Do you need one, pussy?
>>559763601hauler
>>559763396Waiting till monday
why aren't you anons just simply playing more?
>>559763601hauler red hallway is a good spotits even better if you also come across flachette nades to dump into that dead end section they will flood into to heal
>>559763176What he said. Its the numerals on the bottom part of the screen for each faction upgrade menu
>>559763286god damn it anon
>>559763694maybe he likes shoving things up his ass
>>559763396Playing the game
>>559763131You unlock it by buying other upgrades from the faction. It fills up the bar on the bottom, which are the capstone upgrades (they do other good shit too). You then have to click and purchase them even though they are free once unlocked for some reason.
>>559763396Playing blue archive
>>559762484we wiped 2 squads and they all had like maxed gear, as well as blue meds... how are these guys so kitted?is this just the power of premades clearing pinwheel on repeat?
>Rook outpost>Hang near boss fight exfil>Enemy team starts it>Hear a ton of gunfire>Suddenly silence as the exfil finishes spawning>Rook it up and go investigate>Entire enemy team is knocked down and crawling to exfil>Walk over and shoot them in the head>Last guy goes "FUCK you asshole">Exfil one second laterThis game is like fucking crack
>>559763963scary how well geared people are and still get wiped out like its nothing
>>559763117>>559763286Amazin' good work fellow RookitesGreat soundtrack
>>559763970can you believe they were going to release this without prox chat
i wish this game had statswhats the point if no progress can be tracked
>>559763963how good is the misriah compared to the wastelander? is it like a d2 slug shotty?
>>559763970what were you supposed to do when they're all down anyway
>Still havent balanced snipers>still havent added duo'sAre they even trying to save this shit
>>559764071the engagement gained by good players pushing for a higher kd would be heavily outweighed by people quitting because they realize they have a 0.63 kd, like it or not hiding stats is the correct choice if you want to keep average players playing
>>559763970AI that is actually hard allows for situations like this. Rook was such a genius idea too.Fucking love Maramog.
>>559764071It definitely does but just now visible to the user, maybe they'll change it in the future if people ask
>>559764117Clearly anon was supposed to let them exfil with him
what's up with the matchmaking times?
>>559763263So a 300 million dollay GaaS only needs 70k players to survive?
>>559764071whats the point of caring about progression if its going to be mandatorily wiped every 3 months?
can we reset already? im already behind on everything at level 12.
>>559764340Ask poefags or diablofags
>>559764340The chase, build variety
>>559764340im a stat fagthis game really is dogshit
>>559764340because resets are fun>t. diablo&poefag
>>559763112>>559763549Orion is just a 'normal' guy and he's basically the equivalent of a colonel. His superior also doesn't like him and threatens to shitcan him if he moves against Traxus
>>559764261#rapedqueues
>>559764071Yeah, this anon >>559764149 is right. People don't like seeing a negative k/d, so not only are they gonna be mega pissed that they lost their 10th free kit in a row, they'll have to see their stats get worse as well. I think a better way to show off progression is to give permanent cosmetics based on faction rep at the end of each season or something like that
>>559764340>whats the point of caring about progression if its going to be mandatorily wiped every 3 months?the same reason why people like playing roguelikes
bro just said build variety
>>559764712or you could show some stats (total exfils as each shell, total kills on players, total npc kills) but just no deaths stat
>>559764821>Down a UESC commander and gain 10 agilityLet me just work that in to the main game of extract fearing PvP encounters being around every potential corner
>>559764620I did unlock that codex where the admiral basically tells him to feed his soldiers tot he anomaly.
remember when you could look at peoples stats in lobby? now stats cause anxietywe need more people on vyvanse a sertraline
>>559764821Retard
>>559764256>execute one>take all his shit>let the others exfil with himWould have be funny desu
>>559764620His ex is a MIDA agent as well. Poor guy
>>559764113im not sure, i think its nearly the same just lower rof but bigger mag
DUO QUEUE FUCKING WHEN
nice little outpost run!
we feeling raped yet?
>>559764329Initial investment does not determine the profitability of leaving the game up.
>>559764340What's the point of caring about the game if you're going to max out your progression in a few months and be sitting on a giant pile of everything you could ever need?
>>559758790So I killed 4 runners at Algae Ponds, then went through Greenhouse to Bio-Research, got killed by an Assassin, and then the after-death camera showed me yet another assassin was following me into Bio-Research. Apparently I'm just talented enough to run into every single player in the lobby consistently.I just wanted some fucking drone resin why is getting to bio-research such a fuckin nightmare
at arachne capstone 4, your rook starts with the double barrel shotgun...
>>559765157>THERE MUST BE ONE OF US IN THE WRECKAGE BROTHER
>>559765653>why is getting to bio-research such a fuckin nightmareIt has decent arms lockers and also lots of people want unstable gel which only reliably spawns there or on outpost, which is a high risk/reward map not suited to just grabbing some green crafting mats and leaving.
>nona story timekino
>>559765642To play the game because you think its fun? Do you literally only enjoy games if it puts you in a skinners box?
>>559765783>cyberacme 802.11 that's funny, the 802.11 network standard probably would be applied to cybernetics if it ever came to be
>>559765780Honestly I'm more just complaining about the fuckin trek to get there, every time I want to get some unstable gel/drone resin it starts me at Quarantine or the west side of Maintenance so I have to kill my way across the whole fuckin map just to find that someone's already cleared it out and somehow wasn't one of the bodies on the way.Dire Marsh is probably my least favorite map, feel way too fuckin exposed just getting from point to point, I'll just take my luck fucking with Outpost, need to learn the crazy interiors anyways.
its funny how the earlier zones feel like a complete joke compared to outpost, it feels like im going back to elwynn forest after leveling in burning steppes
I have begged in prox chat to not be killed 5 times by some rando on perimeter who gunned me down.All 5 times they go in for the kill. For what? My CyberAcme starter kit? Fools.
>>559765783so sekgen created shells to sacrifice in place of actual colonists to whatever was killing them on tau ceti?
>>559766098I'd say Dire Marsh is still a cancer on its own due to how much you have to spend running across open water with a bunch of sloping buildings about you
>>559766154i think the story is about how much she loves the runner shells she weaves and sees them as her children, and how through creating them she has cured death
DO NOT OPEN
>>559766147they do it because its funny to kill a begging spergits not always about the loot
>>559766215I've just honestly started going all "You're pretty good." on prox. Win or lose.
>>559766147I'll let you live if you give me a kiss
>>559766215I'm not a sperg anon I am a runner
>>559766307I simply say long days and pleasant nights :)
>>559766147dude im fucking arachne i dont care im gonna skin you and leave your bag
>>559766339sorry my bad
>>559766449>>559766449>>559766449>>559766449>>559766449
>>559766375Frick you anon I would NEVER do that to you ever ever>>559766312*mwah*
>>559764716Marathon isn't a roguelike
>>559765441>No S'pht effigyBad luck
>>559766307Some Assassin with a free kit called me a faggot and to kill myself when I downed him a minute into an Outpost match. Gave me a good chuckle, prox chat is delightful.
>heard glitch isn’t very good but want to give her a shot because I’ve only played recon and destroyer>play her>absolutely shred enemy teams with mobility what the fuck this is what I get for watching guide videos
>>559734030Just let him extract at this point, come on.
>>559753837What happens with the loot that was in the backpack when he stole it?
