Cryo archive will bring a new peak to this game.
Remember: your mouth is a valuable tool for getting loot. ;)
First for stirrups
>>560582816>leveled up during that time>you now queue against even better people
Are they going to do an ARG for every new map? Or is cryo really supposed to be big enough to last a while? This shit seems so convoluted
>>560585395Kek it's so over for shitterbros
>>560585557>shitterbrosyou mean casuals, which is like 70% of any playerbase
PvP is the only interesting genre in gaming.No one but Millennials and older play PvE games anymore, no one wants to read all that crap or have to sit through cutscenes let alone read through a "codex"Like I've said in previous generals, they need to remove the PvE crap. Remove all the UESC nonsense, the contract gimmicks and the talent trees.No one wants to sit by themselves and play a game alone Anon, PvE is shit and always will be.
>Triage ult players at the beginning of every engagement in solo>They flail around every time because they don't realize they can't throw smoke/barricadeFucking lol, Triage is so peak in solos.
>>560585554Dire marsh at night over summer then the game probably dies
>>5605856934/10 bait
>>560585693I'm 37 and I strictly PvP.
>Going back to playing without a Triage on the team after getting used to having one
your bag should not magically teleport back to the top of the map if you throw yourself off i dont want any of these niggers having my gear
>>560585632It's not gonna be 70% of marathon. This is a hardcore game.
>>560585229I try :)
>>560585554Cryo is an exception because it's the titular Marathon ship. Unless future maps are as big of a deal as that, the odds are very low of the game getting these kinds of ARGs constantly.
>>560585229>>560586085you'd really do that just for a blue shield?sluts.
>>560586037>dunk some nerd doing his quest, take his gold item>he respawns and his team kills my teammates>theyre hunting me hard>throw the gold item in a bin in a corner then extract :^)
>>560586159>the odds are very low of the game getting these kinds of ARGs constantlythis is bungie we're talking about they're addicted to ARGs
fuck>>560578218This really is going to go down as one of the greatest games nobody fuckin' played. Insane. It is by far the best PvP game on the market right now and like zero people even care to try it.F2P at some point, has to happen.
>>560586159There's no way it's the only map on the marathon unless this game dies immediately
>when the timer hits 0 there's a second secret timer that lasts for 60 secondsno one was gonna tell me about this, just let me have a heart attack at the exfil I called with 25 seconds left on the clock instead huh
>>560586360I'm more fucking mad that an IP with such a beautiful art style, lore, characters, world, etc is wasted on a fucking flavor of the month extraction shooter game. This should have been a singleplayer game but of course, that's not profitable to Sony. Holy fuck I hate modern gaming so much.
I still wanna play the game but I haven't purchased it because I don't have a team to play with. Are there are teams that wanna play on EU on the 'cord? Or?
I don't think I've had autofill this good with voip since slam
>>560586360I'm pretty glad I got to have my fun with the game before it died or got completely raped by bungie
marasisters??? how is this happening??? we paid millions to host that streamer event over the weekend and the player numbers dropped by 10k!!!
>>560586707I didn't even know there was a streamer event until it was happening, lol. Bungie sucks at marketing.
>>560586541Game is good for solo no-fill. Fill is fine, but I usually use it to just get gear to use in solo runs.
>>560586764post moar Vandal mains
>>560586541Believe it or not, you can make friends to team with in the game. If not, yeah join one of the 'cords and ignore the retards saying GROOMER etc. How the fuck else are you gonna add people, post your steam profile here?But, being friendly in matchmaking has done wonders for my in game friends list.
>>560586995What about her makes you think of Vandal players?
I wonder why my game only does the open map game crash bullshit in trios
dude this Mida Contested Contract 2/6 is tough on solo, i get to spawning the Commander easily, but holy shit as soon as I start shooting it's like every runner on the map rushes to me and insta kills me with no chill.PLEASE just let me kill these pVe enemies in peace!
>>560586541There's like 10 people in the discord who are EU so you should be able to find some people to play with
>>560587136holy shit kara is that you?
>>560587214NO!BAD PLAYER!YOU WILL PLAY PVP AND YOU WILL LIKE IT.
Whats with the pseudo-jailbait images?
>>560587275sunsh
>>560587292Isn't that just belle delphine like the most normie egirl in existence?
>>560587349how has it been going raiding? ive had good runs this reinstall
>rat takes make drinkable burger>steal longshot from him
>>560586764>>560587136Whats her Onlyfans Anon
>>560587447Isn't that bitch like 30 now? These are 19 year olds trying to look like 16 year olds.
A while back someone here posted a spreadsheet with knife hits to kill depending on melee damage, but I apparently forgot to save it. Does anyone have it?
>>560587475I'm lowkey uninstalling this piece of shit game when fortnite season 2 releases this week. I've reached a point where every lobby has premades all wearing purple shields and now I'm basically stuck because i can't complete any contracts.
>take meds into outpost>die to someone else>don't take meds into outpost>die on the way back from pinwheel because consumables dont exist
new hint dropped
>>560587526she has a fansly @stimkybun
This faggot using egirls is the reason I got blocked for posting for 15 min cause the janny thought I was avatarfagging
>try to do contracts in fill>nobody cares to help even if we're near it>try to do contracts solo>ASSASSIN ASSASSIN ASSASSIN ASSASSIN ASSASSIN ASSASSIN ASSASSIN
God damn people get so sweaty for a fucking free kit.
>>560587620id play with you if i didnt have a rule not to play with people from 4chanlook, just play super aggressive outpost is the best pvp ive ever had
This game purposefully spawns hard enemies in areas you need to go to, turrets in paths you need to cross, enemies behind you when it fucks you, and the ufos above you when it fucks you
>>560588356that will be $40 plus tax
>>560587287I CAN'T PLAY PVP BECAUSE I'M FUCKING DEALING WITH A SHIT TON OF UESC BOTS FUUUUUUUUUUUUUHHHHH
>>560588356>the game spawns enemies near playerswow novel observation
>>560588356Oh my god the fucking Drones, they're dead silent too until they fucking alert the whole map when they drift above you. Pretty sure their pathing is random and erratic too.
>>560588136I love how those big fucking guns take like 2 seconds to get firing and then do shit all damage
>>560588356>barely survive killing two squads>game spawns 2 blue UESC and one purple RIGHT ON TOP of youwow thats so epic im gonna post that on twitter and reddit!!!!
>>560588136wow dude what a crazy takedown on that freekit noob
>>560587705it's so funny that this is effectively just running on a timer but people have taken too long on this step and bungie is starting to panic because it'll fuck up their schedule
Where are they stuck on the Marathon ARG so far? I found the cable management device they were looking for but I don’t know what have this shit means or where they’re getting serial numbers from.
Can't believe how skilled that assassin was who just waited at the only exit to the room I was trapped in for 5 minutes to two shot me with his knife. Truly I was outplayed. He sure did earn that one depleted patch kit and overrun with no ammo
>>560588964I haven't followed it closely so idk if it's actually hard but everyone seems stuck stuck and they are nudging but barely and at a weird hour I don't get what they're going for
Bro fuck these faggot quests that lock you in a room to defend it how many times am I going to have to repeat this shit I just died because it locked me down in quarantine when all I think I need to do is inject some bullshit and then my timer runs out
>>560588867you wouldve whiffed the jump and fed the noob your kit like a kit cuck
My biggest criticism of this game is that ONI is not sexy. Bungie should have made her hot. I know they already did that before with Cortana, but I don’t care. If an AI lady is gonna live inside my brain, then at least make her a sexy waifu.
>>560589215I don't think bungie has any plan since they expected four times the amount of players and better retention while they drip fed cryo.
Actually criminal that I am forced to queue for Dire Marsh to progress my quests and Signal Jammers are not a standard consumable for sale.
I mean I don't have gear fear since my vault is more stocked with just br33's and green shields and the usually health and shield shit. But, the game just feels lacking after a while even in pvp when you hit those points of going up against mostly invisiniggers and the few destroyers suicide charging you knife in hand.
first run of Cryo Archive done!! guys the loot on the Marathon ship is insane!
>>560589787omg this gets me so hyped to join a discord server and make some new friends
>>560589787Where dis be comin from mang?
>>560589787can't wait to queue into solos and get annihilated by someone massacring the entire lobby with his cryo archive gear
Seeing 3 yellow sniper sights while I have some faggot at 1hp because he ate tox and claymores is the reason this is gonna die a fast death. No one wants cheesy battle royale
i dont want to talk about it
>>560586360>Best PvP game on the market right now>An fair fight is literally impossible because of the game genre.>It's not even the best game in its own genre>It's made by BungieSaying this is like saying Killing Floor 3 or Payday 3 is the best PvE shooter on the market right now.
>>560590707can you explain why ESLs hate this game, is it not localized into your language or what
What the fuck is with this one traxus mission that sends you to canal and force you to fight a dozen bots with basically no cover
I will find a way to fuck this thing.
>bro please stop following me im an assassin Im trying to be quiet >glues to my ass the entire round causes as much noise as he can
Just watched a guy lose his purple shield lol
>>560591609I'd uninstall
>still no skill based matchmaking20k concurrent players in 2 months.
>someone stole the UESC Commander node>wait at area for them to drop it>mfw I am waiting the whole round for this mother fucker to not even use iti am going to fucking lose it with this quest
>>560590932Yeah that mission was my breaking point personally.I'd played solos only and after trying that contract multiple times I just stopped. It's not quite impossible, but due to being higher level now the matchmaking pool of players makes it vastly more painful to do these contracts, especially this one that's right next to Algae Pools and Maintenance which are the two PVP hubs on the map.I haven't really played in a few days now because of this.
>>560588136>that bullet curve at 0:05Seriously, auto-aim has no place in this game.
love this
Get on it /mg/
>>560590932You need two other men at all times with you to play this game the intended wayIf you don't have two other men on call ready to protect you from danger, to travel half the map with you to do your contract, to heal you, revive you, let you loot, then it quickly turns into a shitshow.That's how the employees at Bungie played the game
>>560592614not particularly interested in helping bungie release their epin trios map
>>560590474I want to talk about it
>>560592614ok where are the instructions
>>560592867https://marathon.winnower.garden/cryoarchive/preservationhttps://assets.thecdn.io/f013f942-835c-45b7-b573-ab430f35d7c3.pdf
Is there any way to see my ping?
cant stop thinking about how the art style reminds me of off-white
Marathon pain points (for me and I love the game)- solo with fill vs stacks - aim assist- bad onboarding- thermals These are already a problem and are likely to become worse down the line
>>560591879The last gasp of bungie is a shitty minor version of marathon
What Marathon opinion will you defend like this?
>>560593628also if you don't already have sekiguchi upgrades you're starting every match at a huge disadvantage because your ult is ~2-3 minutes behind anyone who does
>perimeter>go north to north relay for quest>team already there who activate the TAD>I start backing off because of it+I have a sniper>teammate gets sniped and goes down>other teammate gets into a gunfight and goes down>oh shit>run away towards datawall, loop round between north relay and station>their corpses have been picked clean>teammate complains that he lost his purple battle rifle, wants to know where that team went after I get the rez so he can get it back>I saw them go south>head to hauler just for some shitty guns>exfil in the center gets popped>fuck it, it might be them, lets jump them>manage to get up behind them>snipe one, finish off with grenades>other two get away and exfil>the guy who died had the fucking purple battle rifle on himI aim to please
>>560593772Steam player count being visible is doing irreparable and unessesary damage to a lot of games.
>matchmaking taking up to a minute at this pointb-bros?
I'm gonna knife rush the first faggot I hear on Outpost
my review of Marathon just got an award on Steam! thanks whoever gave me the LOL.
>>560593772Extraction shooters aren't fun and Bungie lost out by trying to chase trends
>>560594184You'd be surprised how well this strat works.
i never take a loadout in due to gear based matchmaking, i always use a freekit and work my way up during the match
>Still bleeding playersWHY is nothing working!!! I'm so close to taking out a 2nd mortgage and hiring a bot farm to boost the concurrent players by 15k 24/7.I'm so tired of these insufferable chart posters MOCKING us.
>>560593772Marathon is good.
>>560593772That it's a great game and needs minimal changes.
this nigga unironically just thanked a kind stranger
>>560594587I can't get my friends to give it a go either. Sucks. They'll happily play Hunt, an equally hardcore and ridiculously PvP centric game but nope Marathon is like poison whenever I bring it up. I don't get it.
>>560594587we've tried everything that ruined destiny 2 and now we're out of ideas. maybe we should delete one of the maps?
>*sucks your dick and then shoots you while you're orgasming*
Holy shit, I came across one of those literal AI accounts in-game. I've seen a handful of the same handle but different numbers on the end.
>>560595198>an equally hardcorecap
>now that everyone knows the drone access thing people are speedrunning into pinwheel and looting it before people can even get the keys/do the breach eventGreat, now it's boring.
>>560595892Surprised too because Drone Access is slow unless you have a Thief that can just grapple inside and not wait for the drone crane to go back up.
Like my 6th runThis is really fun
>>560595416It is insane the characters this website will pretend are sexually attractive at times
>>560586002/fa/ as fuckwhere2cop this fit?
This isn't even a big haul and I still felt like I was going to shit a brick throughout the run.
>>560596390it's okay to be gay, anon
>CONTRACT: GET IN THE HAULERfuck i hate the hauler it's always such a bloodbath it's just a fucking snake pit i hate the hauler >CONTRACT: GET IN THE PINWHEELNOOOOOOOO
>>560594000it's fine. the game's good enough to survive, people will catch on.
>>560595607thats so fucked
>turn off team vc>queue up for trios
>>560593772Marathon has a lot of core ideas and systems that genuinely are good, but it's probably doomed in the long run because doing a pivot to a greater PVE focus is out of the question and those core systems themselves are an incoherent, conflicting, barely held together mess. The game has become a hypersweaty thing that is impenetrable to probably 80% of the playerbase in record time, while the remaining 20% of competitive types don't actually want to fight each other.You can literally see the raw gaping wounds from design pivots and reworks in stuff like the DCONs, which the codex entry reveals to have originally been intended as some sort of high risk mid run safe wallet that then got axed and turned into a contract specific overdesigned gimmick. So it goes for most of the systems in the game, though none as blatantly obvious as the DCONs.
>>560597527based as hell
I swear to god why do people allow bungie to torture them? This is the THIRD time they'd shipped a game with NO IN GAME PARTY FINDER.
>when your game is so bad it's got some white kid LARPing as a greek philosopher talking shit about it
>>560597629>The game has become a hypersweaty thing that is impenetrable to probably 80% of the playerbase in record timeYou really need to stop taking shitposting here so seriously
For a naked run on outpost I really cannot complain, that was a good run. Was even able to knife a couple of other players.
Wow Lockdown fucking sucks at Bio Research, every enemy just fucking scatters every which direction and hides under shit to waste as much time as possible
>>560597853>larping as a greek philosopher>doesn't know what the sword of damocles is
>>560588171you just need to ping your contract immediately and then start sprinting towards it and people will follow you. alternatively: just play and help other people do their contracts and gradually develop a community that helps each other with each group you fill in to, you'll get faction points and inevitably run into a squad with your contract at some point
>>560597853The ship of thesisIf a ship is made of woodAnd then you replace the wood with new woodIs that wood new or old because now it’s part of an older wood
>>560593289check out The Designers Republic and you'll find Marathon has their style written all over it, it's good stuff
Hearing repeated rumors that Cryo Archive has no matchmaking at all a la Destiny raids. If that's true prepare for the mother of all backlashes.
>>560598016no one cares
>>560598242>The ship of thesis>thesisThesus, and get your terrible use of the thesus outta here
>>560597996nice! naked as in knife only?
>>560598628holy aspergers
>>560598685naked as in I took off Thief's jacket and revealed that she has anatomically correct tits on her shell
Is the BRRT SMG really that bad? Seemed fun to use but I don't want to sacrifice damage/killing potential.
>>560598628good bait
>>560598845you don't need to take the jacket off, you can clearly see
Thief's bolted on tits... hnngh
>>560597527your free kit, king?
>>560598685Yuh, killed two freekitters and got lucky with the key spawns in Orientation. Went in through Dorms.
YES I FUCKING FINALLY FINISHED THIS SHIT CONTRACT STEP
>>5605993796/6 is the most annoying one
>>560599379FUCKING KILL YOURSELF GANTRY WHY IS YOUR SHIT SO FUCKING HARD ALL THE TIME
Since everyone is rushing pinwheel now Outpost is oddly kind of comfy. You just don't get bothered on the fringes.
>>560593772this game and arc raiders both should have been Battle Royal.
>>560593772Needs a PvE mode.
>>560599908based. yes.extraction shooters are cancer. no one gives a fuck about pve, people just wanna run around and pvp.
>>560598529why would there be matchmaking? this game is an extraction shooterPvPvEyou want people to cheese the hardest raid in gaming to date?
>>560593772Marathon is terrible and Bungie deserves to be shuttered as a Studio. Also any faggot playing the game should be killed.
Is Marathon good for you?
>>560599530ok wow that was the easiest contract step i've done.literally went in with a free kit and came out with the contract done and was able to loot this dude's blues after killing him>>560599685this is actually true as fuck, i was just running around doing my contract and running into just one dude from afar, everyone else was going hard in pinwheel
>>560601268Cute
wheres the retarded turbo autist seething about the outland > longshot tier list from albralelie?lolliterally everyone high levvel is using the outland over the longsht
>>560600515Give it 2 more weeks and this opinion will become the norm unironically
>>560601470>>560601612whats wrong? :(
>>560601612This bratty bitch NEEDS a cock down her throat
not feeling the progression anymore, pinwheel doesn't feel worth it when the actual good loot is behind locked rooms on the other maps and I've never even seen anything more than a blue key drop from the strongbox
>>560585693I'm 39 and I PvE
>>560602207pinwheel is plenty good desu even without keys, otherwise the natural progression is to open purple keys as a team
Big fan of how quickly MIDA escalate your shit once your in.>Break these windows>Tag that art>Steal bioweapon data>Test a viral remote self-destruct code>Get us access to all their logistics>Leave behind the bioweapon hazchem for UESC jannies.
>>560601787you mean two more days, the whole community is going to sour real quick after cryo archive comes out
Me and who?
>>560585693the codex is my reason for playing this over any other PvP game...
>>560602317yeah, i listened to some Marathon lore last night and MIDA is pretty much the Mars IRA. basically the logistics of delivering supplies to mars from earth was too taxxing and they pretty much abandoned them to build marathon. people were starving and short on supplies.
>>560585693PvP will always be gamed by people. It’ll always be broken in any game, always exploited for wins. Primarily PvP games never have their mechanics breathing room and there’s never any design language because your entire game is built around people abusing certain things. Marathon only juuuust gets around this by having audio and TTK tuned the way they are, like R6 Siege.
2472/11/17 — 4.9°S 0°EAUDIO ONLYStraussis gone. Whole sky alight as his ship set off. I might be the lastMIDAsurvivor on Mars. The gun detected teleports yesterday and I had to move camp. Cannot shake the fear that they will send battleroids; even this AI marvel couldn't save me.Shot the ice this morning. The gun fired a thermal round and then a pellet of water purifier. Came out pure and sweet. Marvelous. I've been reading the gun's Encyclopedia Arcana. All about the crash that became Strauss's obsession and hope. "Metastability in the salvaged construct!" Ha ha! Let's hope our ideals too can pass through grief, fury, and envy into a new freedom elsewhere.Wonder if the gun heard me when I asked to go somewhere better. Wonder why it led me here. Going to follow its compass tonight. Down below.
>>560602629me in the corner chained up as a Destroyer watching Vandal pounding Thief till she overheats
>>560603069you're gonna overheat while watching ;)
>>560602758This. I’ve played all the other games and as soon as the heart racing highs wear off, you’re always left with “yeah but why am I doing this”I played Fortnite for 2 years straight and at one point it just clicked and I turned the game off because there was 0 narrative meaning or emotional attachment to the world. Marathon makes you want to hear one more codec, finish one more contract just to unravel what was going on. The PvP is almost secondary to that.
>>560603038The heck is this
>destroyed wing still disabledwhy, drone access is even easier
Top 4 best selling game this weekend on Xbox consoles. It will likely reach 2.5 million units sold this week.https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/browse/top-paid-games
>>560603202Fortnites weird I picked it up right when they climaxed their big order story with the mech and Sloane and then they just never continued it
>Talking about Fortnite
>>560603394XboxGODS will save marathon
>>560603112I'm fingering Vandal's ass while she pounds Thief
they should add an upgrade to each faction where you can upgrade the free kit to an advanced one (maybe a new capstone)
>finally take in all my good gear to get this sekiguchi quest done>kill 4 players>"cool I guess I can finish this quest easily now">disconnect and reconnect to uesc standing over my bodygee thanks!
>>560603456It’s up there for a reason. Kinetically, it is one of if not the best shooters around.
>>560603184I like the red better too bad its just a reskin
>>560603202I partially blame the fact this feels like a glorified BR map along with there being no UESC actually doing patrol routes or UESC contracted runners in the world to make things feel more lively and to act like Hunter/Killers from Forever Winter to balance the heavy hitters either doing to much killing or wrecking the uesc npcs shit. Like, something other than invisinigger sitting in the corner waiting for you to pop in so he could stroke his ego with the shotgun
>kill 2 runners in airfield, get a decent kit going>"prepare for hostile activity">commander and 4 recruits instantly sprint directly at me and ping pong me with melees so I can't even movefirst time that's happened, didn't even hear a drop ship, just voice line, 3 seconds later beaten to death
>>560603587I just don't agree with that at all

>>560603587Best shooter mechanically is apex and idk if anyone gets close to how your character feels lile an extension of you. Every movement is like butter
>>560602484Frankly I can’t wait to see what happens either way, because it’s just going to expose Bungie’s bullshit on a much wider scale.
>>560603676The game needs to spawn enemies around anywhere there is gunfire as long as there isn't direct line of sight. Almost all fights need to be interrupted by some fucking big dick commander bot flanked by 4 other bots walking center field into the firefight.
I love people in generals posting about female characters in games. I love hearing how a 24 year old guy in between his university timetable wants to have sex with girl character and then proceed to tell other males on an image board about that. It’s really cool man. Even better if they build a whole persona around it and have a whole folder of the same images they dump every thread. People are just so cool on the internet.
>>560603625Yea where's the antagonist comms? Why aren't there uesc spooks shit talking us. The world needs more harbingers and handsome jacks
>>560603838Not really saying that but, I mean just shit to make it feel more lively and make the uesc feel like an active presence within the world and maps other than just fodder at PoI's an actual reason to sneak instead of just run everywhere.
>>560603697Yeah because you haven’t played it. You haven’t gone through all the big shooters.

>>560603838Because there is no Antag. Your job is to be a good little goybot picking up all the scrap on some pointless planet when they could easily just create/replicate it at home.

Game is dead in 2 months
>>560603927Its easy to make an ai spook that works for the uesc in some synth voice or some uesc officer like the guy who tells the troops to lock you down in certain missions. Just simple corpo speak like Unrecognized runner you are tresspassing on uesc property and you have been marked as to be disposed. Just little things so we know that they know we're fucking around on the planet and its not just automatic drone launches. Its just worldbuilding fluff
>>560604348Being actively friendly to the UESC is genuinely too strong for Outpost and kinda useless on perimeter.
what part of the map is the drone entrance again? it's near processing right?
thats when season 2 comes out. thats when it comes back to life.

Can't be changed whatsoever mid match.>Other bots act like allies.>Lore Wise your "Runner" is just doing contract work for credits>Depending on performance you can get credits for kills/assists (and maybe some unique objectives on the map) or LOSE credits for dying and not accomplishing anything. Since the Bots you control are expensive. Exfiling is a minor negative (cost of running the bot) easily offset by doing any objective successfully so you have to actually play the game.>Make it a faction with unique rewards for your normal Shells and potential UESC exclusive loadouts upgrades.

SEX HAVING!!!
>>560605283this game is just a low skill shitshowthe skill ceiling is reeeeeeeeallly low which will really hurt the longevity of this game.
>v11 charge shot can't even kill in one shot on a green shield headshotWOW I know it's bad but that's atrocious.
>>560585080How are the physics and environmental interaction in this game? Similar to Halo? Wish you could use vehicles, would be fun to drive around in a floating tank and blow stuff up, or some kind of flying vehicle and do some flyby bombing runs on random players/AI before getting shot down.
>quest objective to kill a UESC commander and take its shit after doing 400 different things across the map>freekit, wait in a quiet area until 10 minutes have passed and a few exfils have gone off>end up dying to the commander because after I killed all the bots a second wave randomly spawned out of the blue behind methese priority contracts are genuinely so unfun that I might end up quitting
>>560606107???? how retarded ?
>>560606032They shouldn't have released titanfall 2 between cod and whatever else was right there then
>>560606141there are key binds for vehicles so we might get something later on
>>560606203Solo just isn't the way for most of them(you can do them solo, especially the first ones but having a team for pve makes it so much easier). You need to spawn right next to the first objective otherwise it's not worth it because you'll get third partied.
>>560606092>the skill ceiling is really lowlol, lmao evenwe lost like 10k players over the weekend on PC because they got to the point where the level based matchmaking stopped working and they repeatedly got farmed by high skill ceiling sweats running across the map likes its a BR
Buying this game as a person with a job and life was a terrible mistake, I only play sparingly and haven't yet ventured outside the first map meanwhile all this fucking shit is happening because a bunch of people are on Discord or something? And I don't get to be part of it at all.People on Discord are literally playing the game on my behalf before I get the chance.
>>560606303Trios are even worse for doing priority contracts than solos unless you have a dedicated group.
>>560606365>high skill ceilingwhat the fuck does gear diffing plebs have to do with high skill ceiling?the mechanics in this game are severely limited plus you got a lot of bullshit like grenades insta killing you, snipers insta killing you, shotguns insta killing you, overall slow movement unless you destro dash or abuse slide cancels as thief.every competetive player will tell you the same.
>>560606420no theyre just doing the little arg shit they need to do to unlock the new mapthey dont get to play it before you or anything
>>560606461Buddy, most of the people playing this game are trying (and now failing) to play it as an extraction shooter, moving slowly and creeping around, usually exfiling after looting 1-2 POI's at most. The other players who are now repeatedly wiping these guys are playing it as a battle royale, running around and using movement techs to zip across the map and position so rapidly that everyone playing the game the way it was intended is helpless.
>impact>high recoil, slow ads, slow movement, small magsize>190 headshot dps>bully>super fast ads, fast move speed, can use drum mags due to mid recoil>200 headshot dps>can also have 40m range with the right modslol? explain
ballin ass game. got a free shotgun out of it. helped one of them do a hauler exfil contract so felt good. :)
New player here, this game isn't half bad...I've put probably 1k hours into Tarkov, 200 in Arc and about 10 into this one so far...maybe just because its still new to me but the PVP feels like a coin flip half the time. The PVP I lose I got absolutely decimated though.I will say $40 seems like plenty of money for it, maybe even 30 would have been fair? Only 3 maps, I hope they don't put further stuff behind a paywall which after reading a bit in these threads it seems to be the Bungie standard...I do like that its fast to get back into matches though, not quite as fast as Arc maybe but fast enough where it's not an issue. Seems like a game with alot of potential which will unfortunately probably be squandered and circle the drain.
>>560606643cool but sweats shitting on noobs and new players still has nothing to do with skill ceiling retard. not your buddy either. read what I said again and try to comprehend it you dumb subhuman
>>560606562But it's all part of the story though, people are talking about strange things happening on the other maps. Things which might not even be happening when I get there.I know I need to put more hours in but I only like playing at weekends because playing in my 3 hours of non wageslave time during the week feels like a massive waste if I lose a run or 2.
>>560606652Let me guess you just killed me when I was trying to exfil with my 2 shotguns and retarded niggers who bunched up on me in the zone instead of smoking you or shooting back
>>560606750dunno I only sniped 2 guys underneath the hauler tires
>>560606643>are trying (and now failing) to play it as an extraction shooter, moving slowly and creeping around, usually exfiling after looting 1-2 POI's at most.the game isnt really meant to play like that though, thats why there are shells with movement buffs/tech like thief and vandal and why you get shields to begin withif it was more like tarkov where you get shot once and die the game would be a lot closer to thatthats not to say the TTK is high though, solos are still a lot of people creeping around because you get killed easily and youre done
i dont think anon understands the definition of skill ceiling
>>560606728>incoherent rambling
>>560607217>>560607143
>>560606461total horseshit, put the top player demographic in a match with some shitty grey gear and an overrun, and give someone else blue kit and shotty. 9 times out of 10, the guy using the free kit will come out on top.
>>560607339again, that doesn't contradict with what I said at all, retard.fucking google the definition of skill ceiling and stop replying to me until you understand it you fucking inbred redneck
>>560607429>schizo thinking everyone is a single anonthe problem with this game isn't your "low skill ceiling", it's that most players will get discouraged before they can reach the level the top players are playing at. you are the one who is using the term incorrectly.
why is the game so FUCKING LAGGY TODAY
he said the line!
>>560607242*gets proven wrong*
>>560607616no. I said the game lacks a high skill ceiling. once you reach a point where you rock blue or purple shield, volley, wstr every game and shit on most teams there is only so much better you can get.>>560607729exactly. the maximum proficiency you can reach is not very high.its miles apart from a game like cs or apex.
Do SMG count as "machine gun" for Contract bonus progression?
>queue with friend who just bought the game>get a level 50 thief as autofill>he is running ahead with his grapple and constantly stealing all the loot>everything he pings is borrowed gear he's swapped out>leave with nothing and he gets his backpack, shield and gun back in the mail
>>560608291Beyond me how that borrowed gear shit applies to items found fresh in that very same match, like what’s the fucking logic
>>560608479it doesnt.
>people are macroing shotgun+light punch nowi want my fucking money back
Man something clicked over tonight. Had an absolutely BRUTAL time, basically lost my entire stash of good shit on Dire Marsh trying to get some quests done in random trios. Haven't experienced this at all up to this point and I'm level 35. Like, I've had some bad games and teammates, but holy shit tonight it was like I had literal retards and the enemy were all shroud clones. I managed a few decent runs but MAN. Went from having mostly blues to down to greens. Game was NOT like this a few days ago. I'm running into purple shielded people on fuckin Perimeter. Took off from the game early. What the fuck. Maybe this game is just like Hunt where some nights you're just going to get relentlessly shit on. Jeebus.

>>560608664explain
Made the mistake of looking at the Reddit post about duo queue and there’s retards unironically talking about they’re gonna buy more skins and buy the game for people to “support the devs” I know most of everywhere is just astroturfed bots but I just know in my bones these fags are real
>>560608667the game feels very fun when you can actually get into a firefight with another team but it can also suck ass to get caught out and be the first one downed so you dont even get to fight or get shot in the back by somebody you didnt seebut on the other hand these are things that apply to basically every other FPS as well
>>560608789they shoot both bullets and immediately punch to confirm the kill
>>560608086>goalpost moving to 'oh the game isn't like cs clearly the skill ceiling is low'
>>560585080>"hi friend! wanna co-operate">"sure.">"oh heh heh...wanna take your skin off for me?">"oh i see so youre a piece of shit. kys nigger faggot.">"YOU CANT SAY THAT!

>>560609091ive never heard somebody try to be friendly in this gameits shoot on sight for everyone (except for a few rare instances where you see a rook as another rook, but sometimes I still kill those because +50 rep to arachne)
>put 100 hours in Arc at launch>people shooting the shit and even if they're violent they're yapping in prox chat>everyone in Marathon is so dead fucking silent that I was actually taken aback when a dude begged me to let him do his quest as I knifed him down

I'm confused, does the Triage mastery challenge for shareware.exe mean I have to give my teammates each of the listed consumables? Or what?

>>560607143>i dont think anon understands the definition of skill ceilingIt's when you have a big dick and giant balls. Other players get scared and make mistakes.
I just uninstalled after 94hrs of playtime. It was really fun chilling with you guys, but I gotta call it quits. The game is too addicting for me and it's getting in the way of my passions. Good luck, runners! Have fun in Cryo!
>3 maps>a flat majority of contracts take place in Dire Marsh, the worst map
After switching from destoroyah to sin I understand the way of the knife now
Processing, Flight Control and the top floor of Orientation are basically no go zones for me. Airfield and Dorms are way more manageable overall and have far less traffic. I used to move through the tunnels under processing during heat cascades but now that everyone is sweating that fucking drone conveyance item it's way too hot.
>>560610902Your prize is dangling between my legs
I unironically think priority contracts need to be made easier across the board, it's not fun having lore (the main reason to play) locked behind incredibly obtuse tasks that put you at a disadvantage to players.
>>560611092No. Run that wheel hamstergoy

>>560611197People bring/collect in the weirdest shit.I've found a bag with 7 sidearms once.
>>560611197Noice, make good use of that shit
You should be able to compact certain guns to make them easier to bring out. Like some guns are genuinely worth collecting but until you start regularly getting blue backpacks and up it's annoying. Especially guns you can't buy normally.
I found a Volt Shotgun. I didn’t even know that was in the game, been playing for 55 hours. It’s pretty shit.
>no exfils in 10 minutes on outpost solodid literally everyone die
in the cvars.xml, there is a line called >force_enable_multi_threaded_render_submitturning this to 1 may help some people with older systems or amd systems, it seemed to make it worse for me personally.but worth a try if you are struggling with like 50 fps
>>560611741Dead or looting pinwheel via the drone access.>Hey we're closing destroyed wing since it's too easy to get into pinwheel and is centralizing engagements>Now everyone is doing naked suicide runs for the drone key to pull the slot machine or just generally fighting in and around processing, an already high traffic quest areaBravo Bungie!

>>560611939fuck no.
lowkey can't even do drone wing runs anymore because i have nothing left to sell in my vault
So no more ninja looting pinwheel as Rook, since everyone is using the cargo lift?
I don't want to imagine how agonizing doing intro+priority contracts and even gathering basic upgrade materials is going to be after the wipe now that everyone knows the meta and will be competing.
>>560586159I hope they'll add another non-endgame map someday, like a residential sector or something.
>carrying the fuck out of these two destroyers so one can loot all the gear in pinwheel and womp womp that he got all the purples>had to solo finish 2 teams by myselfFuck these retarded niggers
How are people getting into Pinwheel without doing the keycards? Are they droning into the vents and pressing the shipping crate elevator button with the drone?
>>560612863Yes theyre thief cheesing because someone made a faggot video about GET INTO PINWHEEL IN 2 MINUTES!!
>>560612863Suicide thief runs to rush pinwheel, I'm pretty sure there's only one key for that entrance so if you get in you have the entire run of it until someone hard breeches the entrances.

>>560613504UESC are doing shit, you're intercepting their traffic not the colonists.MIDA, uniquely out of all the factions, doesn't seem to give a shit about Tau Ceti or the Marathon or what went down originally. They only care about hurting the UESC and finding new ways to fuck with them.
>>560613687>UESC members are coming down from orbit to have conferences in crumbling, half ruined, completely unsecured 500 year old colony infrastructureI think it's just bad writing
>>560614030Yea they dont have a good grasp on what the fuck is actually happening. Like everything uesc is robotic and then some random dude is giving them orders over loudspeaker? Like who the fuck is that guy and why is he talking to you?
>>560614030I think you're just kinda stupid and not actually paying any attention to what's going on.
What's the point of killing another rook. you're just wasting time and neither of you have loot? just loot and kill players and exfil?
>>560614281>point out plot hole and weird/half assed writing>"ur just stupid"ok
>>560614481You only think it's a plothole because you're stupid.
Durandal spoke to me on a terminal. He said>are you certain you want to go where I have been?>I have a visited a lake of flesh, breathing, pink, and raw>it was so peaceful... quiet. Even when it started to bleed
WHERE ARE THE FUCKING REFLEX COILS
>>560614761You haven't explained why it makes sense yet.
Crew fill needs to be replaced. Imagine a built-in LFG system similar to Tinder where you can match with people to do runs with, coordinate quests, and check if they even have a fucking mic all before you jump in.
Some random guy spoke to me on prox chat.He said>you are a pussy little bitch you know that
>internet down for the rest of the month>playing with goddamn mobile data>can't risk going into Cryo and dying to a random lag spikego on without me bros...
>>560614187That's Grok™
>>560614030People finally start realising that the setting is just incoherent slop.The initial promise of an empty colony where 30k+ colonists mysteriously disappeared is cool but anything beyond that is just mumbo jumbo.
>rook mining both ladders on a pinwheel access and camping to kill other rooksyeah, enjoy the bag and shield that turn to dust on exfil lil guy
The sidearm slot should be locked to a pistol only.
>theres a light melee and a heavy melee
I heavy melee an assassin from the back, he turns around and shotguns me.Am I having a blast?No I don't think I do.
>>560615394I loaded into outpost on rook earlier, went up into pinwheel and put a mine down facing the vent another rook immediately came up the ladder behind me and put another mine down facing my minewe just stared at each other for a while then I knifed my mine, he knifed his, and he passed by peacefullythen i put down another mine and another rook immediately showed up in the same vent, he put down his own mine tooI tried to let him pass but he just naded me

https://www.reddit.com/r/Marathon/comments/1rvkgph/these_games_are_actually_impossible_now_at_level/yet another post stating that there is some sort of level based matchmaking, and that the experience gets increasingly miserable the higher you go, this time from a cs2 veteran no less.adding yet another one to the pile of "week 1 was fine but everyone is now playing it like a battle royale"
>>560616787>there is some sort of level based matchmakingThis isn't a secret, who told you it was any other way?Matchmaking is based on vault value and season level, so it's a soft SBMM
>>560597629To me, it looks incredibly obvious that the game was supposed to be something bigger, but turned into an extraction shooter mid development. That's at least what I'm getting from the whole story/lore aspect and how full on they went with the designs and stuff like that.I think that's why those gaping wounds are so gaping/obvious.
>>560616787Bungie have said from the start that there's level based matchmaking, you're not exposing some grand conspiracy here retardbro
>>560616787is it level based matchmaking or is it the natural progression of the entire playerbase leveling up and being similar level
>>560616883there is one deranged anon on here who has been engaging in 9D chess backflips where they're claiming that there is no level based matchmaking. he's specifically been doing this because an enormous number of people (casuals and sweats) are reporting that the game is a lot less fun now and is increasingly being played as as a battle royale and are quitting the game, which he refuses to accept.
>>560617030If that were the case, new players that get into Dire Marsh or something would run into full purple sweats, but they don't.
>>560616787lmao someone pointed out in the comments that the OP is a larper who alternates between making posts about how shit the game is in every way and posts about how he loves the game and plays it all the time. you didn't happen to make that post did you?
why can't rook just always spawn with the volt 11? the CE sidearm is such a piece of shit it's almost worthy of a requeue
>>560617084Is this anon in the room with us right now?
>>560617449he had a schizo mental breakdown last night and was arguing with half the thread claiming everyone was one person and saying that Bungie had "never confirmed anything about the matchmaking".honestly I don't understand why these threads attract so many insane people.
>>560614481>hecking plot hole!back to eddit autist
truth nuke, most people defending the game currently are like level 20 and haven't run up against the massive problems the game has yet.
>>560618706Lets hope it implodes in the next 2 weeks, i want my refund credits
>>560618706Im lvl 50 and haven't seen much of a change in players or teams desu i had high levels when I was low and have uad low when I was high
>>560618706Comp might save the game. I’d rather go against other FPS casuals in low elo than a cracked team of Apex ranked players

>15k players at off peak hours>a fucking 10k player drop at peak hours right after a big streamer competition yesterdayBungie literally doesn't have time to stop the bleeding by tossing in a PVE mode.If Cryo Archive ends up being restricted to trios, or god forbid, premade trios there is going to be an insane backlash and then probably a massive dip.

>>560619130its 15k because this is EU hours and us EU slavs dont have enough money for the game

reminder that Marathon has to officially be in the top 5 selling games of the year for Sony to consider it a success and not violate Bungie in every orifice.
New BA raid is shit. Back to running.

>>560622128I literally waited til the last 5 minutes of a match to do my quest cause fuckers kept killing meAnd there was STILL an Assassin fucking invisible in the god damn corner WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE?! FUCKING KILL YOURSELF FUCK!
>>560622207source: my ass
>>560593772Longshot and WSTR are retard shit that make the game worse in every imaginable way and controller r*ddit retards who couldn't hit the broadside of a barn defend it because it's the only way they can kill people.
>>560622365Literally me.I spent the whole game waiting near Intersection to do that MIDA contract where you have to blow up a container. And there was still an assassin sitting in the terminal room, waiting.I don't understand this game at all. Or maybe it's the whole extraction shooter genre that is fucked.
why is the only one posting clips a deranged console dweeb?
>>560622128>>Rest of the lobby is dad of 4 and stepdad of 3 who can sit in a corner for 20 minutes without a problem to kill youRun-jump-slide, get shot, do a 360 and walk away. Now you found him Heal and kill him.
>>560622629idk about anyone else but I'm personally not posting clips because there's no way to hide your ID in the UI
>>560622629Because deranged subhumans is literally, unironically, the target audience of Marathon.
>>560622724Who cares? They can't do anything with it.
Positioning Chads keep winning
>>560622329Haha fuck noyes....
>>560622797Because I use my Steam ID elsewhere on the internet and I don't want to be cyberstalked by the kind of people who call someone a "deranged subhuman" because they posted a gameplay clip
I wonder if we are going to see some fused enemies in cryo
>>560622874>oh woe is memeanwhile the console chud just posts away and doesnt care.noone cares about you or your steam retard.
>>560622874It's not your Steam ID it's your Bungie ID.

>>560623068I meant my username, whatever.
ARG dudes tried to brute force solve another puzzle, so Bungie reset it and changed the variables.

>>560618706Most recently Arc Raiders. Everyone saying bunch of shit is broken, including the retarded white weapons outperforming purples and golds, takes Embark 3-6 months to fix things because reddit niggers do not understand a single thing about games.
>>560623171>Text start:Di>Tex end:eDialate, solved. Now unlock the map.
>>560623346kek
>>560623270imagine white weapons outperforming purples and golds
>>560623470this gun doesnt outperform anything but it certainly is underrated
>>560620326No, you stupid nigger. Solo queue is the majority which is not what solos in this game is. Solo queue into fill or group is what majority of this game is and solos are retard this that should've never been added.
MY VAULT IS FULLFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUULLLLLLLLL
I get scared like a bitch every single time an engagement happens. I genuinely spill my spaghetti all over the keyboard, I fumble all the keys and die embarrassingly. I'm not like this in any other PvP game, never have been. I don't know why this is happening to me with this game, and I don't like it. I would run Rook more to get used to the PvP if the vault space wasn't so small, I rarely ever extract and yet my vault is 90% full already.
>>560623470Pic unrelated.
>>560623586same situation except i had less credits than you at lvl 60how do you do it
>>560623591It's because the gameplay is rat-based.
>>560623586>arachne almost lowest
>>560623712Seriously. I just got one-shot by a shotgun after sniffing out a rat Assassin. What's the point of anything.
>>560623591im sure ur vault is full. full of SHITspam freekits, rush enemy teams off spawn. that way you learn their spawns and get comfortable with the gunplay, mechanics and winning/losing.then, later on, put on gear and play the exact same and pretend like you still have a freekit.
>>560622834You only lived cause the other nigga that wanted to 3rd party you cant aim for shit, or you clipped right before he fragged your ass.
>>560624130I'm trying man. I'm not getting better after 10 hours, feels like I'm stuck and every move is the wrong one.
>>560624202>You only lived cause the other niggaThat faggot was getting shot by UESC, there was no other nigga
Patch notes?
give me 1 good reason to play anything other than rook
>>560623678>>560623826Outpost pinwheelPractice a few runs with rook if you aren't confident enough. It's super easy to get a 10k run with rook once you figure it out. You don't even have to kill anyone you can just sneak around and loot the scraps
>>560624589i been spamming freekits outpost, guess rook was the way all along.
>Thief is doing PvE>UESC shooting herWould you help?
Playing Recon is like playing as the dungeon master instead of a player.A Recons plans are not against you. They are above you.
>>560623027What is this, the SCP wiki?
anyone know if the BP voucher dupe still works
>>560624984maybe try it you dumb nerd
>>560625040mm don't feel like spending 20 bucks and losing half of it
>>560620112I have literally never played squad fill. I intend to remain solo for life.
>>560620112I have zero interest in party play. I like going at my own pace doing my own shit. The only time I squad played was in apex before they added no fill and I didn't play apex that much anyway.
>"mind if i join u fellas"https://x.com/kruzer/status/2032449612943151467
I played Warzone ranked for 3 years, now love Marathon, solos because the randoms are shitters. Unbelievably bad randoms.
Recon: I'm here to tryhard.Vandal: I'm here to have fun.Thief: I'm here to get you hard for some fun.
>>560623591I was a little fucked up this weekend and twice I rounded a corner and got shot and it spooked me so much I jumped and all the sudden was aiming at the floor or ceiling the game is terrifying when people surprise you
>>560624738Are you going solo or in a group? Solo is super hard. Especially if you don't pick Triage or Assassin. If you are a 3stack don't split too much in pinwheel. It's a rook fiesta up there. I can give you more tips if you'd like.>i been spamming freekits outpostYou need to get a bit lucky with that. In my experience it's 1 out of 8 (team-fill on) successful runs. I also recommend Triage to raise those chances.Maybe watch a youtube video to see all the sneaky passages and the locations of the panels inside pinwheel. We have a 5 hour maintenance now anyway.
Game's mwuah, sweet like candy
Solos has a higher skill cieling than squads. Choice and consequence actually matter in solos. Encounters are often a frightening game of cat and mouse, played out before bullets even start flying. Stalking opponents, tracking opponents, avoiding hazards, setting up ambushes, being QUIET, are all things nobody gives a shit about in squads.
if you spawn into a match and the first thing you do is start looting your nearest poi and shooting bots, you are an NPC
>put servers on maintenance, in the middle of the day I have off for St. Patrick's daygay!
>>560625739>Solos has a higher skill cieling than squads.Debatable, squads takes a different set of skills. Talking and call outs are premium work. You can get more, and better info in 3(three) seconds of good call outs, than you'd get by having 3X Recon on your team. Recon can't scan across the map, Recon won't tell you exactly what guns are people closest to you are running.Good call outs will tell you there's no shotgun by the door, there's an SMG.
>if you play the game and the first thing you do is play the game, you're an NPC

AHAHAHAHAHA First game I play this morning and just before maintenance I go on run with sponsor kit, my team gets in a fight and I go invisible and yolo stab the last runner it was full of purple gear I've never gotten better loot I was able to exfil
I wish I could be friendly in this game *loads shotgun*

>>560620112Join the discord and link up with anons to play, duh
>>560626231timezones nigga
>>560626332I pretty much play like it's a stealth game and try to avoid combat, maybe I'll try queueing some games with the goal of murderhobo'ing. Do bot kills also give EXP or just humans?>>560626353The party on the ship
>>560626565Yeah bot kills count, you can see the exp pop up on your screen whenever you kill one
how long until people realise they can't break destroyer's shield and stop dumping all their ammo into it only to leave themselves open to my massive fucking melee damage stat

>>560626646just wait until we get our hands on the secret rocket launcher in cryo

Game will die soon. Not because of all the hate bullshit but because of the gear and skill gap. Lots of squads now running purple kits even ran into a gold nigger who chased me around the whole map while trying to do sekiguchi quest. Mechanics take a bit to learn as wellIf this is what it's already like 2 weeks in imagine 3 months. New/casual players are litteral fodder and they'll never come back. Just leaves good players sweating it out till they give up.
>>560626646>how long until people realise they can't break destroyer's shield and stop dumping all their ammo into itDestroyers are often shitters, who don't know when to fuck off
>>560627181Just 3 more months Destiny sisters! Then Bungie will be free to give us the attention we crave!
I have a week off next week, I need to lock in and finally get to level 12 and play outpost.As an aside, I heard there were more Twitch drops? Is that real? I have the launch and slam ones.
>>560627375There was for the nearly impromptu tournament they had, just some rabbit themed things
>>560627181>gearisn't everyone freekitting all the time? the fuck is the point to bringing a loadout?
Reminder that PvE niggers and trannies deserve to be shot in the head in head and their blood should flood the streets. That is all, thank you.
>>560627585To kill the free kitter cowards?
>hitboxes the size of a house>fire in the general direction of a player and they dieyeah bro very high skill ceiling
>>560627632Everyone dies in 3 bullets regardless.
>>560627749>Purple shields die in the same amount of shots as no shieldsUh huh, yeah, I can tell this guy knows what he's talking about.
>>560627676Yea I'm an Aim-Assist Stat-Maxer. Maybe uh lose some weight fat ass.
>>560627501Oh cool, so I missed those then forever. Epic.
>>560627749if shields don't make a difference why do you care if other people have them?
>>560627181I imagine rank will somewhat fix this I do hope they'll add a freekit or naked mode
I enjoy helping my teammates with their contracts. :)
>>560627181>Lots of squads now running purple kits even ran into a gold nigger who chased me around the whole map while trying to do sekiguchi quest.the gear really doesnt make that big a difference. if you get the drop on someone or turn the tables on them you can still take them out, its a lot different from apex in that respect where white shields lose to red shields basically automatically.
>>560627843Were you really going to put a bunny emblem as your player icon
>>560623060Hey I'm not a chud, I'm a cool guy
>>560628252Not in a 1v1 but trios it definitely does the extra time you spend fighting a purple gives his team mates time to position and flank on you. God teams will always be spread out somewhat to do this.
Remove thermals.
Is this game worth it? I have never played an extraction shooter in my life. A friend of mine plays it, but only because he is a gigantic bungie glazer.But I'm in desperate search for a game to play, so maybe this will scratch the itch.
No one can say the game's bad, all they can say it the game's hard.Grow a pair, you niglets
bungie needs to drop the answer or start false flagging because like literally 5 people are working on their ARG i dont think they expected this
>>560628643It's a good extraction shooter, probably the best on the market unless you really hate PvP, but I can't really say if you'd enjoy it if you've never played one before. The only way to find out is to try.
Snipers are fine but WSTAR needs to be nerfed they fucked up by having it be so common so it's either make it worse or make it rarer
>>560628643>But I'm in desperate search for a game to play, so maybe this will scratch the itch.You'll be desperately refunding, after we tear your butthole apart
>>560628643Go for it, especially if you have a friend to play with.
>>560628672Nah, these things pretty much run on a schedule. Bungie already indicated second half of March to the reviewers, it’s just a matter of time.
>>560628672It's pissed off even ARG fags, they're all bitching about the fact that's the instructions are too obtuse and worded in in-universe language which I find hilarious
wtf i cant connect?
>>560628643Check the Steam reviews. Everyone who’s tried it loves the game. People are just fixated on making it the next concord but it’s so good. I’m having a blast. >>560628672There is a discord of 400k people working on it, wdym?
>>560629005maintenance, bro
>>560628827yeah if the argfags are stuck for too long bungie will just start giving them increasingly blatant hints
>>5606290841 guy on vg beat the entirety of that 400k discord. bungie could never have predicted this. now release the map
>>560629072fuck when are we back i wanna raid, i wanna go to outpost
>>560628262It's more about the principle because I've collected every limited item so far.
it's be cool if they added a pVe mode, then I can play during work since I wfh
>>560628672How many people did they expect that would >willingly play an extraction shooter >play along with an ARG??? I think they’ll just drop the map whenever it’s scheduled to drop. This is just a fun lil experiment that failed.
The ARG is cute, but the whole thing should be in game. The reality is that 800 people are working on ciphers while the majority of the playerbase has no idea the ARG is even occurring. It was a fine idea for before the game was released, but now that’s there’s an actual game to interface with, I don’t get why they aren’t doing CoD Zombies sequel Easter egg hunts.
>>560629268>it's be cool if they added a pVe modeThey I wouldn't play. Because standard mode would be sweats only, like ranked with no rewards.>Just compete for free broNo, I'm not gonna compete for free. I'm gonna keep stomping dad of 3, and 9to5-ers.
>>560629058>400k on discord >checked the arg channel breach protocol>everyone just confused and asking what’s up with the arg holy kek nobody plays this game and nobody is interested in the arg hilarious
You won’t let this place become a ghost town and drop the game for Crimson Desert after the 19th right? I need some /mg/ bros to stick with it please. My rig can’t play that other game.
what is arg?
>>560629358I was thinking more for the simpler mats and stuff to upgrade factions, just fight some tough UESC bots, the actual major loot and stuff should of course be on the pvevp maps
>>560629490least subtle gook shill
>>560629502check #breach-protocol on the official discord. we need help. if we can’t solve this the cryo map won’t be released. thank you
>>560629502it's short for argument
Ready to kill for Arachne!
when is the server up again?
>>560629308I agree, it doesn't treally feel like "the community" is coming together to solve anything, more like a couple people working in a discord completely disconnected from the game 99% of players.
>>560629490>crimson desertthis looks like asian mmo grindslop
>>560629490ain't nobody playing that gookshit nigga
>>560629593>community fails to complete the ARG>endgame map never releases, Bungie says fuck you losers and dips;_; please guys
>>560629189It'll probably be recycled for another event, it's not an uncommon thing to do
I personally dont care for the ARG myself, I have never solved one nor worked on one. I havent read the codex at all I am here for the aesthetics and to shoot people
>>560629308in-game puzzles can't be too difficult because it's still an extraction shooter and if you can get third partied in the middle of figuring out the convoluted zombies easter egg bullshit then no one will bother figuring it out. they did have the terminal map event, which was pretty boring but at least gave non-discord users something to do
>>560629490>rop the game for Crimson Desert after the 19th right?I dropped Black ops 7 ranked and bought Resident evil requiem, still haven't played requiem, because Marathon is so good.
>>560592550>we are trying to pidgeonhole youYeah, i dont give a shit. Maps have enough resources and shit to go happily about them without shooting each other.>why are you resisting?!>why are you not engaging in our psychopathic stimulation?!Because fuck you that's why.
>>560593772PvE mode.
i didnt expect wed get a game that manages to be more boring than arc raiders, but here we are..
>>560593772A safe pocket would make the game better.
>>560629490>made by black desert studio>main character is guy and the only female character is tied to specific gameplay and weaponI'll pass
Ran into a triple Triage stack yesterday. Seems pretty good if you know you're shit since you can just res each other 3(three) times in combat
where can one check the full version of this?when are the servers back up?
>>560629787You do you. I want to find out what the fuck happened to the colony, and fight whatever is making those creepy noised in Perimeter and underneath Dire Marsh.
>>560629787you are the reason why the map isn’t released yet. we need MORE people involved in the arg if we want to make bungie release the map.>>560629853im having a blast too but the arg not getting solved is giving me anxiety.
How much longer under game alive again? 2 hours?
>>560629058>Everyone who’s tried it loves the gameLOL. Not me. So not everyone. So SHUT THE FUCK UP.
>>560629654>I agree, it doesn't treally feel like "the community" is coming together to solve anything, more like a couple people working in a discord completely disconnected from the game 99% of players.and none of it matters, its just a flip Bungie has to switch and they are just "waiting" for the ARG to finish
>buy the game because it sounds fun camping and killing people>level up too much>now nobody is fighting>I get shot in the back by someone corner campingwhat a retarded game
>>560630662Why are you even here then? Leave your bad review on Steam and GTFO? But you won’t because you didn’t buy or play the game. So no, you STFU.
Bungie could you stop doing gay shit like this and fix the audio and lower player count per map pls and thank you
I have confession to make.When my stash gets too full every now and then I go full purple and die to some noob in shit gear to make him feel special and stay in the game so he doesn't stop playing and we get more players. I don't really lose anything I have like 15 purple shields and backpacks in stash anyway.
>>560630570>>560630597It's not my business
>>560630847>I go full purple and die to some noob in shit gearI do this too but not to clear out my stash but because I'm fucking dogshit.
>>560630029Looking grim bruddas
>>560630772I have 120 hours in the game. I can play it much like i played Path of Exile and CSGO, yet i will not recommend them to anyone.
>>560630846The audio fix is coming with this update
>>560631020And yet no screenshot of your playtime. Nice try.
>>560630847>I go full purple and die to some noob in shit gear to make him feel specialThen I clip it on Ps5 and spam /mg/ for a month
I have a confession to make.I like to go in with a free kit and pretend I'm a new-ish player and kinda walk around aimlessly until I find a shmuck that looks to be kitted out, kill them, and take their best gear. it's usually blues and purples
>>560631061A playtime screenshot is the easiest thing in the world to fake
>>560630597>>560630772Fucking shill. And if not, if you are actually defending the game, then congrats, you are doing what shills do - for free. LOL. You are pathetic.
I have a confession to make.I don’t care about or play this game. I just come here to read what you troons are saying and have a laugh.
>>560631106>I like to go in with a free kit and pretend I'm a new-ish playerAre you me?

>>560632289-Can cancel her dash slide mid way-Ultimate gives damage mitigation Actually a cool idea for her ult might be the higher her heat sink is the less damage she takes, would make for an interesting balance of keeping it high but not too hard to overheat
>>560632289A nice defragmenting
>>560632289I would stick my tongue in her butt
>>560632289She's fine. Her biggest competitor as the mobility shell is just too good in comparison and it's them that needs to be fixed.

>>560632548She's not fine she's basically useless indoors since you can't flank in a lot of situations and running through hallways is a death sentence, so what is there left for her? all she has is a cannon that does little damage and the knockback is only useful in niche situations. She's a highly niche high effort character among all other shells being easier and useful in more situations

Hey I gotta ask, is Cryo Archives actually out yet? I was in an argument with someone on /v/, I said it was out, he said it was not, problem is neither of us have played the game so nobody knew the answer. On the bright side he was really fucking mad so I'm pretty sure that means I won the argument regardless.
>>560633627It's not out but will likely be out later today
>>560633627>problem is neither of us have played the game so nobody knew the answer.None of us are playing the game. We're jerking off to the same pictures over and over
>>560633249>good gameGood games dont die, you imbecile.
Cryo Archieve won't be releasing for 7 more days.Bungie's giving casuals 1 more week to reach lvl 25
Guys, I'm afraid the SteamChart Chads are going to make fun of us. These numbers are looking grim...
>>560633341>path of exile>popular
>>560633952>Good games dont dieTell that to Titanfall, Killzone, Shenmue, and your mom's pussy
>>560634147Hit the nerve, have I?
>>560628643No, you will end up as a MMO mob for better players, and it isnt fun when you get sacked without a fighting chance.Fighting games have a similar learning curve, but there you can atleast take your time cause there will allways be a pool of players around your skill level.So you will have a good time with marathon when youre packed with all the shitters, but on higher playerlevel you get matched with stompers.I woud advice you to wait for next season, if the game is still alive then you can still play it, maybe even for free.

>>560634534he thats funny
>>560634805you're kidding
>>560634805the ones that complete the discord ARG will be the first to enter the new map
>WSTR nerfedthank god
>>560629058>Everyone who’s tried it loves the game.The game is subject to a positive review bombing effect from pvpers excited to murderize worse players.
>>560634976probably needed tbqh
>>560634995>positive review bombing
>>560634976I'll give them credit, it did not take 6 months like it did for Stitcher in Arc. Longshot next please.
>>560635169Yeah? It seems counterintuitive but it's just a call to action so the game gets significantly more reviews from people who would normally just quietly play. It's identical but the reverse of when people get obscenely angry about some minor change and gamers with 1000+ hours call the game turbo trash.On top of that the server slam losing half its player base meant it heavily self selected the game having a positive review compared to if they bought it at release, where that 50% would have given a negative review and refunded.
>>560635503>It's identicalYeah identical apart from the people have actually played the game.
>>560632289Wall jumpsPowerslide is continuous, but builds up heat fastMake the ultimate make her feel like V1
>>560634147>TitanfallIt did kinda ok considering they went up against cod and bf in their heyday, while still being an xbox exclusive.I bought it and played the original on my 360, and is to this day my most played shooter.Titanfall 2 was sent out to die by corpos.And by the time i got my hands on it, i was greeted by dead servers.>KillzoneEveryone says its good, but i never hear why its good.Could you tell me?>ShenmueIf you meant the retro ones, it was simple missmanagement by, again, corpos.To make the money back that they used on production, every owner of the designated console they respectively released on woud have to buy the game twice.You coud say it was the second concord after the ET Game and what ultimately set sega back in comparison to their competitors, and ultimately, to them giving up in the console wars.The new one was a cashgrab that was cheaply made.The truth is, with Marathon Bungo catered to hardcore shooter affectionados, but burned ressources for a AAAA Audience.>4 (B)illion $I get why some People like the game.I like the game (NOT the gameplay...)TLDR, Bungo is le ripp
>>560635169>positive review>account is privateor>account has 3 or so hours of playtime, is low level and has >10 gamesThis shit needs to be studied by academics. It is absolutely clear that the game is being botted to shit and beyond.What, you dont know that there are bots in this game?>rook>exfil at the last second>instead of screen going black and booting my ass into lobby...>... i see for a second a nameless bot's POV>then i get my ass booted into lobbyYeah. Noone will fucking convince me that the game is not being botted.

>Turbo nerds jumping into Cryo >Less competition on regular maps>Easier to kill more normalfags
>>560635621Butt slam too pls
>>560635767Yeah man everything you don't like is a bot
is cryo archive a pvp map or is it like a pve style raid thing?
I hope the marathon has a raid like "Colony Ship For Sale, Cheap"
>>560635829>"lalalalalalalalala i did not read i do not think" the post
>>560635748It took 5 years for anthem to kill their studio so I think Marathon will be fine
>>560635908Relax guy this is a safe space for you, the scary "bots" can't hurt you here
>>560635748>>Killzone>Everyone says its good, but i never hear why its good.Killzone 1 was PS2's Marathon, Killzone 2 was just a cool game, like boots on the ground Halo(no jumpy movement). There was a skill gap and people got filtered.Killzone(4) Shadowfall was a PS4 tech demo, casualized, so it was a lesser game than PS3 games. >TLDR, Bungo is le rippNo, Bungie will keep existing to make a new game for Sony's next console. Bungie is not alive for Marathon right now. Bungie is alive, because Sony wants Bungie's logo on a PS6(six) exclusive game. Sony is back to doing exclusives. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-03-04/sony-pulls-back-from-playstation-games-on-pc
>>560635874from the looks of it and how they described it in dev videos, tight and pVp-gocused, with hard pVe enemies and possibly a raid-style boss with mechanics and such
>>560635989
>>560635934In a far more forgiving market as a dealer for an MTX addicted EA.Marathon will not survive this year, bungie probaly wont either.Sony shoud have just bought fromsoft.I coud be playing Duskbloods right now, instead of waiting to get my daily dose of assfuck in the cyber murder hobo simulator thats also riddled with MTX(Translators note:Its pronounced AIDS)
>>560636095>Killzone 1 was PS2's Marathonbro be real nobody played that shit
>>560635885It would be too based.
What was the steam update for?
>>560635874>s cryo archive a pvp map or is it like a pve style raid thing?
>>560636302Cryo dude
>>560636158The harderst pvp enemy doesn't have shit on a retard with a wstr or longshot so they'll have to up their game in not making enemies have tickle tier damage
>>560636274What mtx does marathon have besides skins that just ask for you to get shot
>>560636357I hope there's Wardens around every corner.
>>560636342oh... I see...
>>560636274Can you name a single game with this kind of launch numbers that got shit canned in a year?The only thing I can think of are some gachas
yes I’m loading into Cryo Archives as my beloved Vandalno I’m not gearing up, I am free kit sponsor of the dayyes, I will shoot at anything on sight, I don’t use my knife to be silentno, I will not use a mic and will rely solely on pingsit’s Marathoning time
you ain't going no where without keys lil blud
>>560636357im fine with the difficulty of the botstheyre not supposed to be overly challenging on their own, but annoying enough to warrant dealing with them because you cant just ignore them or they'll kill you in large enough numberstheyre also tough enough and in big enough numbers that if you spend too much time killing them you attract other players
they deleted free kits lmao they really want to kill this game as fast as possible
>>560636890Where does it say that?
wtf they added Thundercrash to the Destroyer ability kit??
>>560634459>weapon mod that gives you temporary aimbot only available to the top 1% of players who are already shitting on everyone elsebased
>>560636979it's not in the patch notes (of course) but ingame they're gone
>>560636095To late, they already lost the plot.There is no sony brand i am currently remotely interested in, and even if, they woud fumble it.Besides that, with their variable pricing, i will start pirating for old classics and easy pickings.This modern world is to gay for me, i think i am flatout not interested in new releases.Games get paded to shit out more engagement, instead of captivating players through gameplay and artistic craftsmenship.Thats why im going for a PC too, i can just mod shit parts out and jump over hoops that devs laid out for me to be a number in their metrics.The only game(Fate/Extra Record) i planned to buy this year just got delayed AGAIN and Marathon was an impulse buy, the artstyle and dark story and visuals tingled my jellys.Even crazier that they didnt just opt more into this, but i guys sony whipped them realgood to crank out unbalanced slopp.Even the most peasant ghetto gangbangers i now are now shooting for PCs, allthough parts have trippled in prices.
>aztecross reading the patchnotes>is surprised by most fixes thinking they were intended features>"Fixed DCON extracts not showing up on the map when you need to use them for a contract">"Oh... I thought that was just being part of the game, it was a skill to know where they were located.">"Okay.">moves on
>>560637023lol, wonder if it's a bug
>>560637174i imagine they saw people talking about going to cryo with free kits and started seething uncontrollably
>>5606360952 had really good multiplayer, was slower paced more tactical with classes. 3 just felt like COD MW, a huge disappointment and I abandoned the franchise. The lore is pretty neato, single player actually sucks it's just boring.
>no more free kitslmeoooooooowit's literally over for me isn't it?3 hours a day every day since launch and this is where I am
>>560637791You can get a free kit from the armoury..
>>560636489Marathon.Call me Nostradamus.Again.>4 (four) fucking (B)illionAnd they killed the last of us multiplayer, greenlight concord(asskissing was definitely involved) and released Marathon.They have been consultants on sonys worst fucking fumbles, while missmanaging their golden goose Destiny.While still burning cash with 900 employes, offices, equipment.They coudnt even ripp apart bungie for any of their IPs.Its owarida.
>>560637791do rook in outpost, gamble and youll have stuff like a king
>no free kitsmy ass is NOT taking any good gear in with me to do contracts when some fucking FAGGOT will third party me while I'm fighting UESC, go fucking KILL yourself Bungie!
free kits are backyou guys just had to wait for daily armory refresh
>>560637906Oh yeah one just appeared now.When I checked there was no free kits in there.
>>560637791>no free kitsWait a minute, does this mean i just LOST my hard-earned 10 remaining CyAc agent rewards?!
The daily reset is at 4pm euro time wtf?
>no free kitsGOODNow shitters might actually drop something usable when I dunk on them.
Marathon key descriptions updated.
>>560638003LMAO
>>560638064>>560638198they are obviously talking about being pieces of shit on Cryo Archive
>>560638319Pump??GOOK FRAME... ONLINE.
How will ranked work? I assume a combination of kills and total inventory value on exfil will determine your climb
>>560638319I can't wait for everyone who still plays the game all to be heading to the same UESC pump
>>560638319wOw S0 c001 B#Ng13!!
is the update peak or is it slophas anyone figured out how to get in>>560638319UESC PIMP???
>>560638492me as the UESC pump
>>560638536me trying to write my own OS
>snipers untouchedWhy?
The hysterics in this general make me happy that virtually none of you are in charge of anything of import because you are all in containment here, this goes for both sides.
>>560638653They're fair :)
Where did they post patch notes? I dont see anything on Steam.
>>560638804https://www.bungie.net/7/en/News/Article/marathon_update_1_0_5
this has been nerfed from 12 of each item lmao
>>560638536
Post that Outpost map with the keycard route for Pinwheelplease
>>560638962terry would be more fitting
>cryo archive dropped>15k players on steamlmao I was going to wait a couple more days before making my final decision on whether to refund this game or actually play it but It's pretty obvious at this point that the game is dead
is cryo archive fun guys?
>>560639446>Only 6 ranksThis isn't the Bungie I know.
>>560639446Only got the game a few days ago. Is this going to split the matchmaking pool even more, or is it like an opt-in thing thanks to the Holotags?
>>560639446doesn't have solos so i dont care and it will be dead
>>560639737im hoping it removes sweats from the shitterpool i occupy desu
>Cryo Srchive is total dogshitIt's a giant 3D maze. It's all identical corridors that lead to 3 other identical corridors each. You're just running around until you run into a squad that's just as surprised as you are and you flip a coin who shoots first. I can't believe I spent hours farming keys for this shit. And they told reviewers to wait for this...
>>560639867can you post an image of it instead of goku spicGod
>>560639446>so many subdivisonsYeah, queue times will be unbearable for this. No one will play it.
>>560639446>pinnacleWhat, not enough elements on the Periodic Table? What's next? "Prestige"?
>>560639867I’ll trust the big knowledgeable streamers over some random anime girl poster, nice try though, Cryo has saved this game
>>560639867>It's a giant 3D maze. It's all identical corridorsthis sounds kino tho?
>>560640015how is this any indicator of anything, have you ever seen what league has, the most comp game ever
>>560640082reddit tier commentary
I haven't even seen a key I've just been doing contracts like a good little wagie
>>560640337I wouldn't know, i dont go there. Sounds like a place you frequent.
2 games got anteater error and kicked out
>Suppressors>Removed the health display scramble and the 2D damage indicator effects that happened to victims shot by a weapon with a suppressor attachment.>DEVELOPERS NOTE: We may revisit this in the future but for now we believe this muddied the gameplay language too much and the benefit of a quieter weapon is attractive enough for these mods.What did they mean by this?They REMOVED the hit indicators or did they add them back?
>>560640364I've been hard focusing contracts for the most part.I've been getting some loot here and there when my clan wants to do Outpost, but solo I have been grinding those contracts
>>560640303Not what I meant. You're divind players by both rank AND map. Even in the most populated division you'll have a hard time finding people for a game. League has, without exaggeration, 100 times Marathon's player count.
>>560640446rook just got a huge buff
>>560640446I don't understand how you could be confused by this?do you have some kind of mental disability?
>>560640303Now, unironicly check the player numbers.I allready had loading times of up to 4 Minutes on dire marsh, now imagine the playerbase spreads out to 4 maps for regular gameplay(dire marsh with another skybox comes soon), cryo archive for cock and ball torture and a ranked mode.
The game's moving too fast I barely even have any outpost lore collectibles and we're already fighting aliens, I've been playing almost every day since launch
>>560640629>the benefit of a quieter weapon is attractive enough for these mods.This sounds like they are saying that the weapon being quieter is enough so there's no need for any other gimmicks.
>>560640446Oh, so THAT'S why sometimes my healthbar would disappear when getting shot at.
>>560640805Tick tock wagie, whipey comes soon!
>>560638003It should be back now. After the daily refresh it reappeared for me
>>560640805Same desu. We're accelerating too fast due to extreme anxiety about player retention.
>>560641327>>560641327>>560641327
>>560640679>>560640579does it say anywhere they split players doing ranked and ones not doing it
Fun little tidbit I found out about the Japanese localization: "Acme" in CyberAcme is rendered as "akume" in katakana, which to Japanese players looks like a slang term for an orgasm, so to them it looks like the company's name is "CyberOrgasm". That said, the comments on Japanese Marathon videos and streams keep cracking jokes about it and Japanese streamers playing the game never fail to laugh their asses off when the see the company name for the first time.
>>560628663>1.00 kdr man says 'git gud'
>>560629308theyre doing all the plot outside the game because its cheaper.
>>560642986Makes sense since the UESC robots literally suck you off to death when you get downed.
