For me as a solo, things have been pretty brutal.

>Accidentally walk into one of those plants. Its spores make my brain go numb, my body goes slack and my mouth drools. I drop to my knees and some other runner comes along and fucks my face before killing me.

>Zipline up to high ground during a fight. I slip off the edge, fall down, get downed and then the enemy team takes turns using my mouth like a fleshlight before killing me.

>Queue for squad fills. My two teammates immediately pin me down and demand that I drop all of my starting loot. I reluctantly do so and then they push me to my knees and take turns using my throat. They both cum on my face and later they exfil without me.

>Trying to do contract at a location. The bots overwhelm me and I'm suddenly surrounded by robots getting bukkake'd before being killed. My teammates laugh.

This game is tough! :3

They need to add recon and triage decay skins to deluxe and also add 5 recolors for the not vandal shells to the battle pass.

>>559872850
While I really like what the game currently is, they leaned much harder into the 'must kill others' angle than I would've liked, and part of that is that everything has to make a shitload of noise. I want to be able to play Splinter Cell against real people who are playing Quake, let me spend an extra 3-5 seconds to take a vent cover off quietly, or open a door painfully slowly to stay quiet, or walk really, really fucking slow to be actually silent.
>>
>>559873413
Damn.
>>
>>559873331
>only going to do solos?
Yes, but you will have to take your time to finish PvE missions.
Two options: slowly collect trash, sell it, and create a decent loadout, risk losing it while question. Or, collect a little bit of trash as a Free kit, risk losing nothing, and focus on playing a lot of matches catching other players off guard, killing them and taking their items. If you're good at PvP, you'll quickly collect multiple decent loadouts to do PvE quests, if not, PvE quests will take you many tries.

fuuuuck i wanna suck it so badlyyyyyyy

>>559873468
Yeah I was really hoping for some proper sneaking. Not even a lean function either, especially annoying against the AI since you have to do a kind of peek shuffle and hope they aren't looking your direction.
>>
doing the outpost quest where you have to go to processing, then scan shit at airfield, then hack the terminal THEN exfil was stressful solo.
>>
>>559873468
Solo mode was an afterthought and trios don't need sneaking or stealth.

Well it's not the same, modern trannies are incredibly entitled, obnoxious and outright delusional. Old 4chan types were aware their desire to be a girl wasn't realistic and was purely a fetish, they wouldn't go around demanding people cater to them over it, or take it seriously in general.
>>559875073
Nah that's just wrong, you literally have it backwards, healslut threads are the offshoot of the older culture, not the cause of a modern one.
>>
TTK is fine for trios and that's what you are supposed to be playing.
Long TTK will make the game unplayable indoor or on indoor maps like Outpost. You'll only be able to land a couple of shots before you lose your target. Plus dying in trios isn't that dramatic.

moot himself used to literally put on dresses at conventions and claim to be a girl, and that was pre-2010, long before healslut generals, which were just a new form of pretend generals.
>>559875206
it doesn't have to be "long" but it should be "longer", I've played high level trio fights and literally 90% of it is two teams sitting in a building or behind cover waiting for one to get bored and make a move so they get one tapped the moment they show their face.

>>559875137
>Old 4chan types were aware their desire to be a girl wasn't realistic and was purely a fetish
Most of those people I kept in contact with did in fact troon out, barring the few that went hard on the trump train (and even then, several of them did, including some of those most obsessed with saying they're different and better than trannies)
>>
>>559874027
i like how tonally different solos versus trios is
trios is usually high action but solos will have you playing the game like its an active hostage situation, its very fun to experience both

Yeah this is increasingly becoming the norm from my experience as well, it's pretty shitty.

Getting to the final part of a quest and having the game say something is "nearby" when it isn't and there's no marker is worse than any other problem this game has

You haven't faced really good trios. Util is so strong in this game, good teams will blow your shit out with nades if they figure out your location and you don't move.
The ttk is absolutely fine and if it goes up purple shield teams will be unkillable.

They actually went ahead with this game? They replaced all the art they stole right?

Yeah they replaced you're mom's nudes

my personal favourite is the Traxus one where you have to dip into a tunnel filled with claymores and lasers after starting a timer that counts down for a commander + squad to spawn on the other side of the map and expects you to kill them and loot the commander without drawing attention from any other runners

beautiful game design Bungie, I’m sure it’s just a skill issue and I will overcome it

realize that the only reason you want to hold on to the good gear is because it's scarce for you at this moment. Risking your only blue shield is scary; risking one of seven blue shields is pedestrian.
Personally I reserve a small amount of my best gear for when the boys can squad up and we all feel like locking in.
Everything else is excess.
What are you going to do when your vault is overflowing? This excrooter's economy has the shortest falls and fastest rise of them all, just treat it like a pseudo-battle royale.

Vandal can escape better than Thief and Assassin, using the slide is faster then starting the hook animation, or popping smoke and not seeing what's blocking your way out.

I really would like to see for them to make a way to truly kill people. Not just that becoming the default, but some alternative mean - a special attachment, weapon, equipment, etc. Being able to res the dead is good because no one likes sitting there spectating or feeling the pressure of having to finish up quick because your teammates are bored, but it also makes the only difference between down and dead being that you just can't move, which is lame.

I keep flitting between runners as a solo in Marathon...

Played more recon than anything else & I quite like the kit for aggressively hunting down players, but the spider drone is SO bad at pathing

Assassin feels like invisibility in MOBAs... invulnerability against lower skill players, useless against anyone who knows what they're doing

What's people's thoughts & successes so far?

Much of it is to do with builds imo, there's a kind of roguelike feel to the buildcrafting that's pretty neat

You are using it wrong. Aim it towards empty space, it needs to bounce once, after it falls. If it bumps into something, after hitting the floor, it starts climbing.

Spider needs to land away from walls or obstacles. After landing in clear space, his tracking is great.

You can kind of tell when you're in a firefight against someone that mainly does pve. They can't land any shots and make very questionable decisions. And judging by how many people picked up Marathon for a PVE experience, it's not surprising to see people who are actually good at PVP are absolutely pushing their shit in.

I've bounced off of recon a couple of times. The traits are incredibly meh and the scan is often less impactful than expected since the enemy sees your sonar waves and the information is VERY imperfect; a shell supposedly built around establishing superiority via enhanced awareness that doesn't actually meaningfully do that. The drone is good but when it's off cooldown you're just your kit.

Vandal seems like it's good only if you're an adderall-prescribed apex refugee. Might be more dependent on gearing (heat cap) and upgrades (cooldown delay, heat cap) than what I'm willing to bother with testing. Niche solo use case of rage-running towards objectives on sponsored kits to get them over with.

Triage feels mandatory to have on a trio, and I've been the group's triage boy. The revive prime skill is awkward; it has a decent startup animation plus chargeup time plus wind down animation, so finding the balance of when to hit it because someone is down/about to go down vs preemptively neutering your DPS is rough.

Assassin is superbly versatile thanks to how simple it is. Every ability can be used both defensively and offensively, pvp and pve, but has downsides allowing skill to counterplay against a bad assassin. The best assassins are like squids, squirting their inky blackness the moment the team begins to feel unsafe. Unironically it should be considered the standard for trios frame functionality.

Destroyer is similar to assassin with a different mix. Also the person using it has to know when to stop pushing because your team can never hope to keep up with the assault sprint, lest you turn a 3v3 into a 2v3 by dying before your team can catch up.

I haven't used thief much but getting my rods forcefully pulled out of my asshole while I was helpless in the matter bridge state was very impressive.The drone is probably incredible if you're a comms god (or have high ping duration stat and just mark them, maybe??)

Purple non-salvage will definitely require keys in perimeter and ponds to get. You can get blues from lockboxes (signaled by red flares nearby) and the fartrooms as well as the more dangerous UESC (gold shield, also sometimes purple).
Maybe try some solo runs with thief and just spam run through pois with the visor on to get a sense of things? Usually the bigger ones will have at least one blue container and/or blue-carrying bot.

ONI refers to it as a "grounding exercise" which is used for disassociation, and it likely is for that reason.

>>559893606
Turns out PvPers are actually the minority when it comes to gaming

Like this AAA game, that everyone says IS GOOD, can only get 70k players?

I guess we just have to accept that PvP isn't as big as people thought it was

yeah, that's what I mean, I doubt any of you played Hostile Waters Antaeus Rising, but in that game there was a similar concept of simply digitized human minds on chips. Here it seems to be the same except with the problem of "rampancy" so they have to debrief you like that so you don't spazz out and fuck up their contracts or waste their shells.

People were correct in saying Vandal gets a little better when you just naturally go up in levels and upgrading the kind of standard path that accounts for general character stats and getting cores. Do I think she is the most broken and muh positioning and movement tech thing, eh she has good stuff especially when you have better equipment, and her ult is nice but I get why people can still be indifferent.

Triage gets further mandatory in a world when people get better killy weapons and you need to bail people out quick with his revive. I’m not surprise when I see teams that run two, health items burn up quick in this game. Destroyer I still don’t really have an opinion on, I just think of that fat bastard Kevin Yanes clapping like a seal that he defeated the chuds by putting Twilight Garrison in a different game
>>
look, I don’t want to be ‘that’ guy, but speaking as someone whose only experience of extraction shooters is Arc Raiders, shouldn’t there be way more loot and lootable containers than there currently is?

I don’t mean loot quality, just items in general, grey mats and the like
>>
>>559893850
you really need to focus on something else, or get good or get people to play with you.

Being serious, I do think it's annoying how they highlighted Destroyer having armor based on the battleroids but having exact same stats as Thief or Assassin survivability wise

Except Marathon is a watered down garbage version of D2 designed for requiring the least amount of work from them. Even if you like the kind of PvP Marathon offers you'd be better off just playing Trials of Osiris all day.

This game is watered down for casuals. It's fast life/ fast death.
If it wasn't casual there would be way more stealth involved and gear would majorly tier you from what pve enemies you fight while those enemies would guard areas more effectively. Instead it's a mad rush and the smartest thing to do is play rook and loot outpost while murdering with your grey kit.
>>
>>559892968
I don’t think it’s even programmed in my game, there’s tons of weapons I just have never seen like the Zeus, Stryder, and other shit

>>559894287
They'll eventually stop sending you to perimeter and make you go to the marsh or outpost for them, but you can really do whatever you want. People still show up to the harder maps with the sponsored kits, so it's just a matter of how confident you feel
>>
>>559894230
yea I'm sure Sony and Bungie are really happy about the lack of sales after spending $300 million on development costs, and you multiply that by 2 for the advertising $600 million, and that's just the minimum, I was getting ads on youtube and tik tok,that's not free

I kinda wish there was more sources of credits yes. I get there’s a whole suite of lootable shit you cash out and get a coded thing, and some other odds and ends but just from really focusing on upgrading shit and other things money gets tight a little quick and you don’t really have an immediate source to square things away. Even just gear doesn’t sell for that much

Marathon is not full of damage abilities and its combat is massively less shit. Lower TTK makes how you take an engagement massively less shit. Aim assist difference between KBM and controller also isn't fucking ludicrously insane so the game is actually playable on KBM.

get on this shit niggas
get in the #breach-protocol room of the official discord too
we need more runners
as many as possible on this shit
we have to brute force it

we're unlocking camera feeds on the uesc marathon on the cryo archives part of the ship

we all need to focus ONE terminal pair at a time by spamming it, one voice activation = one brute force "DDOS"-like signal submission
just keep doing runs from the first in the pair to the second in the pair to get the Durandal voice line

then the progress bar on the cryoarchive.systems site goes up
it naturally decays so if we dont have enough people doing it we cant get it to 100%

we got all the perimiter cams to 100%

dire marsh terminals unlocked, their thresholds seem to be higher

we need more people

spread the good word of the terminals

Marathon reached the #1 best selling game on Steam just days before launch, outselling RE9, and RE9 sold 5 million copies in 5 days. Given that the best selling chart is based on money made, not copies sold, and Marathon is $40 while RE9 is $70, that means Marathon has sold more copies than RE9, at least on Steam.

This is Bungie. They're not gonna congratulate themselves on 1 million copies sold, that's nothing to them.

>BUT THE PLAYERCOUNTS ON STEAM

most people playing this are probably hopping onto this game for an hour each day then hopping off. Take the average amount of players per hour throughout the day, accounting for highs and lows, then multiply by 24 hours and that's about a million players each day on average just on steam, and there's people who won't be playing the game each day because people have lives outside of gaming. Account for the fact that bungie games sell more on console than PC and...the game has probably broke even.
>>
>>559894783
>Lower TTK makes how you take an engagement massively less shit
I tried to edit my own post and fucked it up.
Lower TTK makes how you take an engagement far more important making the game a lot more tactical. Also no shooting while sliding and jumping like D2.

>>559895183
any location with UESC bots will spawn a commander once you kill all the basic bots on it
youll hear a message a couple minutes later saying reinfocements are coming
alternatively, you can rotate around the map and find a place where someone else has already killed the starting bots then left, and youll notice stronger bots are there
a commander will be there too
ping them, youll see their names

commanders are also in some areas by default on dire marsh i believe, and absolutely in some areas by default on outpost

also guaranteed a commander when you hack a secured resource chest or other higher uest security operations

Durandal's going to be a mess. Based on what we already know, it seems like he'll be more of a complete third party who also hates (You) as an extention of the different corporations or the UESC.
He's not the type to hate on you for the sake of hating on you, but he's probably just as bad as the corporations. He'll use (You) as bait for the aliens if he can get what he wants.
If anything I think Durandal has started to do things on Tau and on the Marathon ship that he'd rather not have you interact with. The message he sent out was probably a while ago now, it took time to reach Earth and it's taken time for people to get to the place.

it is a nice change of pace having fights in physical areas you can traverse through at various verticality, entrances, platforms etc. that’s what always pissed me off with a lot of Destiny’s pvp maps, you couldn’t even really do a meaningful flank on a lot of maps when there was an overuse of choke points and angles that realistically only has a limited ways of entry to a space, somebody could be at an innate advantage, and there was no way to apply pressure from other ways. Even with buildings a lot of them were just glued into part of the map boundary with finite entrances that forces you into channels that again left you in a very predictable manner. I like situations in Marathon I can bail out and go through a roof or open second floor window to get high ground. Destiny sometimes it just felt like you were jousting with specials or some lame brain you peeked too long in this hallway I win.

It’s all the ecelebs have with this game they realize with no social component there is no “flex” if there is some cosmetic bauble to come through ARG shit, it’s also a lot of RNG in this game so they have to just make overdramatic “watchable content”, and they’re trying to have the same vicarious hero worship people had with Destiny but fail to realize the people who are enjoying Marathon aren’t nearly as large emasculated cucks as Destiny players.

They’re patterned after real people. Sekeguchi couldn’t make up an entire person so they’ve essentially bio-engineered a way to android-clone imprints.

It’s still unsettled as to whether or not the consciousness riding the shells is a copy of the person too that’s in a suspended state spun up to run their body again and again, or some sort of devious AI fooled into thinking they’re a person, or something else entirely. It’s fuzzy for now.

But the bodies are designed to after specific people to have emotions and memories and impulses to keep them human and controllable, think DADOES or Blade Runner.

Honestly the biggest issue this game has is more specific problems that does have something to do with playerbases, but it's less to do with numbers.
This game is going to be pretty unplayable in Europe unless you're using some kind of LFG/discord to get trio groups, otherwise the entirety of Europe are going to play solo. There's absolutely no guarantee right now of being paired up with people who speak the same langauge as you, and I know even American/Asian servers have this problem, but European servers don't suffer the same natural ping filter that west coast/east coast or asian suffers.

It's confusing to me because they've made an LFG system with tags and shit for Destiny, why can't we have a matchmaking system that asks us our language/preferred language for trios? Sure you'd get a braindead moldovian who thinks they can speak english but that's maybe better than a spanish guy who doesn't know anything.

Rush the CyberAcme skill tree, get those upgrades as soon as you can because they are a game changer.
Run the first map a shit ton of times, grab whatever you need to expand the storage space.
Shoot on sight, killing runners is very profitable both for farming experience and for getting shit.
Don't get crazy about quests later on since they'll become a fucking pain in the ass to do solo, remember to have fun.
>>
>>559898504
At least this game is pretty whitecoded
>>
>>559898327
My only two tips are: don't be concerned about saving all of the things you may extract with. If you get a gun or a shield that's grey or green, use it. The other tip is to avoid going into the Hauler on Perimeter your first few runs
>>
>>559898327
Don’t be afraid to use your shit
It’s easy to get shit back
Rook runs are kino
Once the exfil timer runs out, an extra minute is added and a fina exfil is auto activated at the same location every time
Learn where it is on each map
Get used to using it, it’s far more reliable than exfilint early, I find
No one ever uses it, and if someone else is there, it’s easy to hide and slip in at the last second

You'll learn a lot doing missions and trial and error. If you want guides there are some out there with maps showing where things are, but honestly learning how to deal with other players (not dying as soon as you see one) is something you have to play to learn.

I've gotten to the point where it is quite easy to tell what say, a spanish/dutch/german/norwegian/swede/switz is saying even if they have no attempt at aiding you with attempting accent.
Generally though, playing video games as a hobby got picked up by a lot of people who do not know English in Europe. Being able to bridge between communities in Europe used to be somewhat easier because people who were seriously into videogames did know English, they learnt it because they wanted to learn it to play better or simply because they could afford the hobby (especially for PC players).
But in the past like 5 years I've ran into so many players who cannot speak english, refuse to, and most developers don't ever develop or pay attention to europe so they really don't care about this issue. It used to still be a problem but in Marathon I've found it to be pretty bad, at least in matchmaking.

you can either run with rook or go in with your main shell and a free sponsored kit, it really depends on how much time you want to commit to a single run since rook runs generally take less time since the fucker spawns in late.

80% of the benefit from being sneaky can be obtained by literally just not sprinting near locations unless you have reason to and/or are leaving. You don't need to crouchwalk in by the slowest path, just normal walk when you approach/enter/loot places and you'll hear the enemy first more often than not.

I would agree with what you're saying if anyone other than Bungie made this game. But Bungie is a bloated, expensive studio. Sony bought them with ideas of giant dollar sign returns on their investments. They are going to collect on that or shutter them. I like this game too, I would love to see it succeed. But it also cost like 6 years and fuck tons of money to make. This isn't going to survive on niche audience numbers.
>>
Playing solo is too slow and punishing.
Playing trios is too random, especially in EU.

The game was literally designed to be played with static squads of ex-quake pros.
>>
Marathon feels like Destiny. Or at least Destiny that was promised from the Supercut when game dev and story dev weren’t talking to each other.
Something that could have a killer and epic single player game with integrated multiplayer. That is being wasted on a live-service game.
This thing has a pedigree going back to Pathway into Darkness, why is it being wasted on a trend that was niche when it was new?

I dunno if I agree with that. Long range high damage low fire rate weapons kinda dom in this game, and those reward good aim. Hell even short range fights require you to flick and track. The only time it's not really an issue is mid range with the volt weapons and their auto aim makes up the difference.

Tracks, progression is massively stunted in Solo no matter what the coper says.
>>
>>559908904
if not for free kits and rook I’d probably never afford any runs, I barely extract and any money bumps come from faction quests + rep, its a broke ass existence sucking at pvp, there’s just no way to justify dropping in with a full kit loadout when I can’t afford to replace it

>>559910182
I primarily play solo and yeah can absolutely confirm you just don't progress nearly as fast. 20% bonus is shit compared to things just going much faster in trios so you can loot more/do more contracts, and you get a portion of the contracts your crew does. I have done like 5 runs with friends and got more done than like 15 by myself.
Granted, I still enjoy Solo way more than Fill so I'll keep doing it primarily, it's just the more fun way to operate, and it is way less tilting to lose a 1v1 than a 1v3

all Bungie need to do is tough it out for two more weeks so enough people can see how much more this game is than Arc Raiders, Marathon can still win this race

All the map spawns are fucked right now, I think they've just enabled at least two spawn points per team per POI now. Doesn't matter what part of the map you spawn in you will run into someone within the first minute.
>>
>>559911829
What fucking keys?
Those fucking things do not actually spawn I am convinced.

Call me a shitter, but they really should at least do away with a lot of "in one run" shit for contracts. That's really the closest I'll say on the casualizing the game aside from a simple pve mode that only allows solo play with being unable to drag shit into pvp
>>
>>559912242
it looks like you need to buy them from a vendor exfil and it turns usable. and the broken keys cost rare mats lmao
>>
>>559912361
You're a shitter and completely correct that the "in one run" shit needs to die fast or the game will die FASTER.
>>
they gotta make a fucking megastructure/kowloon map its so easy or like someone suggested a few threads ago use the megablocks from Dredd as inspiration. if the next map has a single cliff face or swap im going to scream
>>
>>559894783
The damage abilities are almost as severely limited in D2 Trials as they are in Marathon so Trials is just a normal shootout. TTK is literally the same as D2 if not longer in some cases and you can literally slide and jump and shoot in Marathon, it's not a joke when people say the shooting is 1:1 with Destiny, including all the console aim assist.
The only difference is how long it takes to get to engagements, but the gunplay is literally the same as it is in Trials usually, there's a reason why that mode is the least played.
>>
>>559912361
that and allow for multiple contracts to be active, I feel like I'm wasting my time doing them one by one, like the Arachne one where you need to get 10 finishers could've paired well with any other contract
>>
>>559911482
nice ive been wanting a suppressor so i can do comfy runs. i used to do a lot of silenced glock runs on interchange in tarkov, it was very serene, the rain pitter patterin on the roof overhead

I have two of them (found naturally) but like why would I ever risk it with no security?

Charter wants you to focus on skinning people, not leisurely killing people along your mail route.

Don't know if they hate you or I'm just lucky, but about 3 failed attempts to do a contract and they started spawning me right on top of my poi

>>559912716
Charter should have a talk with Witness and realize it's all for naught
>>
>>559912361
Most of the in one run contracts aren't too bad and make sense. "Hit this side of the map then the other" isn't super unreaonsable.
Then you get the sekiguchi one where you need to kill multiple ghosts AND hit pinwheel. Especially since the ghosts are near the guarded entrance, so you either need to get in via destroyed late which is obnoxious and retarded in solos and a rook swarm nightmare in groups by the time you'll get there, or RNG into the guarded entrance which again is pretty hard solo.

>>559908506
they've already started shuttering them, their long-term plan is to fold bungie into playstation studios. bungie's fucked no matter what, but sony owns their ips so there's nothing stopping them from giving marathon to another studio. granted, they might decide to kill it for not doing arc numbers, but that'd be retarded imo -- the game's niche but it's got a passionate fanbase who will do free marketing and even people who don't like extraction shooters like the aesthetic and the world
it's not a concord situation where there is literally nothing that appeals to anyone, so it makes way more financial sense to build off the elements people like and pander to non-extraction-shooter fans by adding a pve mode or dropping a spinoff pve game. this specific marathon game probably won't make them that much money, but marathon as a franchise has potential and killing the game kills any of that potential

you think i havnt thought about that RETARD? One season there should be a new faction who finds a way to create husk shells who dont require consciousness and only follow basic orders/attack conscious beings on sight, and said faction uses those husks to erect a megastructure in record time on the other side of the planet and plan to spread because they believe tau ceti is theirs or something. boom, problem solved.

>>559910602
Solo mode should be PvE. Atleast that deals with ratting. Duo/Trio - have at it PvP.

You pussy-ass bitch.

>>559909442
Sucks to be them. I left two teammates because I had a burn and couldn't revive them. The ending screen showed they had sponsored gear and I was the only one with loot anyways
>>
So, i played for 4 hours.

About half of that solo.
It doesnt really feel like i progress in factions, i dont really feel rewarded for some poor suckers i skinn, and the whole upgrade system feels way to punishing upon death.
But i like the loop, some games are just short extractions, others feel like a fieldtrip with dudes i barely know.

Another thing i noticed is that i never encountered a single player using voicechat, neither in team nor in proximity.
