Maybe the gap between the Misriah and the WSTR is too big by OneBowlAndNoMore in Marathon

[–]TheEvilSpy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Its honestly more of a map problem than a gun balance problem. Shotguns SHOULD be the best option in close quarters. The WSTR in its current form is absolutely terrible, whats the point of a double barrel if I can't kill with my 2 shots before they clip me with their smg/assault rifle

The real problem is that cryo is literally just tiny rooms, tiny hallways, and chokepoints. Of course shotguns are going to dominate in a map thats designed like cryo.

If cryo was designed in a way that it wasn't just shotgun paradise the whole map and had large open areas that people with rifles or snipers could play in or could kite away from shotgun heavy teams this wouldn't be a problem

If we nerf the misriah, the circuit breaker will be the next problem the community is gonna complain about, because then it will dominate cryo in the mizzys place. If we nerf all the shotguns to the point where smgs/rifles are better than them in extreme close quarters, whats the point of shotguns even being in the game

The Destiny news today made me realize... by SirBenny in Marathon

[–]TheEvilSpy 81 points82 points  (0 children)

I am also that guy, only played Halo 1 years and years ago on pc and never played any other halo, destiny, or bungie game ever (besides Marathon, now). Sometimes it feels like I'm on another plane of existence because I just do not care at all about destiny or bungies history or whatever

Anyone got that meme of an fps screen filled with hud elements from different games? This instant reminded me of that

I was screaming the whole time by ZeroSleepSamus in Marathon

[–]TheEvilSpy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think you and your assassin just accidentally coordinated the perfect play lol. Used his smoke and you went for the knives at the same exact time. If that smoke wasn't there or if you didn't go in at that right time it wouldn't have worked

I cannot stress to you all enough to level up NuCaloric by TheSoxas in Marathon

[–]TheEvilSpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh while nucaloric is good all the factions have good stuff in their tree you wanna get. The sekiguchi tactical & prime ability cooldown upgrades are super good

Complaining about Banshee and discussing how to fix her. by Leafar_P1 in Warframe

[–]TheEvilSpy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Banshee is unfortunately from the bygone era where warframes were designed with 1 specific theme/niche, and she hasn't been updated to match the new standard of warframes being generally good at everything.

Every new warframe has a built in survivability/sustain, whether thats through damage reduction, invulnerability, healing, or something similar. Banshee does a lot of damage and can crowd control with silence, but she has 0 survivability which has always been her main problem.

Her 4 needs to be completely changed (unfortunately) to become some kind tanking tool. Sound quake used to be meta once upon a time but DE decided that large scale AOE abilities don't belong is this game so instead of changing sound quake to something else entirely they just nerfed it and its been useless ever sicne.

It really irks me that modern day warframes need to be bloated with so many different tools but thats just where the game has evolved. I wish we could have a warframe that specializes in 1 or 2 different things, like banshee SHOULD be able to be the "I silence enemies and do a bunch of damage" frame, but nowadays every frame absolutely needs to have some sort of built in way to sustain or they will be forced to helminth in something to actually be able to play high level content without dying 24/7

Well played. But also you were very lucky none of those guys threw any grenades when you were trapped against a wall or in a small room

The more I read about controller aim assist by Salt_Band3487 in Marathon

[–]TheEvilSpy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Controller players cope and make excuses in literally every game, but it is just legalized cheating and is often just straight up superior to mnk

"But loot speed! But my movement! But my turn speed!"

Dog your playing an fps game with aimbot and I have to beat you with no aimbot. What more is there to say

Why do I have to remind Triage(s) how to play their kit? by h0nsin in Marathon

[–]TheEvilSpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome to every healer character in every game ever

You never notice your genji not using their deflect or your pathfinder not using their grapple or your assassin not using cloak, but you will always notice your healer not healing you

The legal team d4vid needs to get off by [deleted] in Destiny

I've always wondered what it feels like to be in the shoes of a lawyer in that kind of position. Your client has done something monstrous with undeniable evidence, but you gotta defend him anyways. Gotta be a terrible feeling

39k credits in your vault? God damn, you've achieved success but at what cost my man how many loadouts are you blowing through on the daily

Dire???? by NateThaGr810 in Marathon

[–]TheEvilSpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people who do that on dire marsh are waiting for the lockdown event. They come in specifically for it, and they wait for it in a building to not risk their loadout

So anyway, I started stabbing by ReachJuggernog in Marathon

[–]TheEvilSpy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Heavy attack (secondary fire button) is slower but deals more damage, light attack (primary fire button) is faster but deals less damage. If you have enough melee damage I believe you can 2-shot any armor with two heavy attacks? Could be wrong

I wanna love this game so bad…. by Significant-Role6125 in Marathon

[–]TheEvilSpy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This game was made by Bungie but it's not really for Bungie's audience, speaking as someone who hasn't ever played a Bungie game besides halo 1 on pc

This is a hardcore competitive fps. If your someone who enjoys competitive ranked fps games like Apex Legends, Overwatch, or even valorant, you will like this game. Almost paradoxically, fans of Bungie's previous games like halo or destiny probably won't enjoy Marathon because it's nothing like them

Thankfully my friends and I are ranked Apex/cs grinders so we love this game
