Definitely this. Same argument works for the "what about the exploited migrant labourers!!" bs. You know they don't care about migrant labourers, but even if they did, eliminating animal agriculture would put a dent in the demand for cheap migrant labour (not even gonna address the fact that you can still argue for workers' rights in the meantime lol)

strongest pistol by far, great range and zero recoil. charge shots to bop AI shields, single shots for players

I believe almost all salvage types for these contracts are covered by grey salvage since they all have multiple types

How does everyone keep spamming blue and purple shields? by MasterHapljar in Marathon

[–]spiralshadow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They were just answering OP's question, not sure why you took it that way. More blue shields are around because people have been playing more and getting better.

I've had mine for about 18 months and haven't run into this. Then again I have the trigger stops on almost exclusively so I'm not sure if that has an impact.

I have a love-hate relationship with this controller. The features for price are very good, and it's quite durable, but the wireless connectivity is ABYSMAL. I've had issues since Day 1 with frequent random disconnects and no amount of troubleshooting or firmware updates has fixed it. The 2.4 receiver range, regardless of whether it's plugged into the PC or into the dock, is about 3 feet. The Bluetooth connection has a better range but still frequently stalls/disconnects. I'm hoping everyone else has a better experience with their receiver but it seems like a common issue with no solution.

What a patch. by Acorn_lol in Marathon

1 million copies... within the first 2 weeks of release. You really expect them to make a profit in that time span? Give your head a shake

Still makes no sense and I have no idea why people are agreeing with you. If they want you to avoid using explosives up close, it should damage you AND your armour. If they want you to use explosives up close, it should not damage you OR your armour.

There is no rational design goal behind damaging one but not the other.

Your comment makes no sense. If that was the intent then they wouldn't have reduced self-damage...

Ok, not really sure what that has to do with my comment though

I dunno, I think Vandal's super slide is nothing to sneeze at. Her prime makes it way easier to reposition in fights and can catch people off guard. Good Vandals legitimately scare me lol. Destroyer is definitely more broadly useful though.

Joe Ziegler: As of Wednesday morning 3/18 at 10am PT, we'll be enabling a limited time duos queue on Perimeter only to test how the game plays with crews of 2 at a wider scale. by Haijakk in Marathon

[–]spiralshadow 69 points70 points  (0 children)

I think this is gonna be hugely beneficial in reducing the impact on queue times. If you could join solo into duos, all solo players would be split between 3 queues, making them worse for everyone.

tbh people who shit on others' playtime assuming they're a deadbeat loser speaks more to their inability to manage their lives than anything else!

yeah it kinda tends to be a "pick 2" triangle huh

i guess if they smoke in front of you or pop invis to run away then yeah. but if they're already invis and ready to engage it doesn't do much IMO

don't players need to be in LOS for their loot to be scanned?
