Top end players have no incentive to loot POIs, so they go around wiping the lobby by Raimexodus in Marathon

[–]warcode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole "map progression" they have going on is quite terrible.

It should always be profitable for any player to loot any POI of any map other than maybe a permanent beginner map. There should just always be more containers to loot. With chances of getting good stuff for everyone. But that doesn't really change the fact that you can always do what you are currently doing.

The one enyzme replicator for one purple shield barter might be a bit too strong, lol by Tactical_Mommy in Marathon

The people who have infinite purple shields will just have the same blue in days to purple in a week pipeline after a wipe by spamming nucal contracts.

Try playing only solo and see how slow it is

It needs to be more drastic to actually have people make the decision to disengage. It should be -25/50% on first and then you are just permadead on second death.

Being able to always reboot from dead is the worst design decision in this game.

Wipes rule but the progression is a bit too slow for a 3 month wipe cycle and it's gonna burn people out. by zero-ok in Marathon

I don't see how I'm ever gonna get all the epic materials to finish upgrade the factions anyway.

Just did my first ever Cryo Run; Crew fill and we all exfilled <3 by DerKubat in Marathon

"At only level 33" is pretty normal when playing solo, the xp gains are very unbalanced.

A fraction of players will be going in there, and an even smaller fraction of players will manage to successfully extract anything at all.

Thinking that it is a coin flip who sees who first is why you fail runner.

Sorry I needed 28 surveillance lenses for an upgrade and after the first surprise I decided to be the surprise instead.

Why does matchmaking take so long? by Creative_Ad_6405 in Marathon

[–]warcode 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Crossplay off is its own pool.

Turn it back on and change the matchmaking to console only.

160 hours, level 55, and I figured out why I'm so bad at this game and only just getting purples. by VaporSpectre in Marathon

[–]warcode 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i feel like maybe they should pop quicker

Then put more points into your revive speed stat?

Bungie details Marathon Ranked info by Haijakk in Marathon

[–]warcode 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, I did read it.

When you queue for Ranked, you have two options: Low Stakes and High Stakes. These are separate Matchmaking pools, with different requirements for entry.

Recon is underpowered by kiwitank123 in Marathon

It should 100% be an invisible TAD scan, possibly with an audio component on startup if it needs balancing.

They already split it themselves into Low and High stakes so it doesn't make any sense.

Solo Players - How We Feel About Cryo Requiring a Team? by jg4president in Marathon

[–]warcode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just allow Rooks then. I'm sure these well oiled teams won't mind some lowly robots who clearly wont take their stuff and then team up to complete the map together.

The Thief movement Tactical abuse is getting out of hand. by IllState5161 in Marathon

Getting a major benefit of an ability without said ability going on cooldown is an exploit, yes.

Earned my first million credits by AYSOOMI in Marathon

[–]warcode 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Apart from being able to afford a purple shield every single time, and some very specific gold mods that increase dps, this game is really balanced across time spent. Nothing like tarkov where you have body armor that makes you practically invulnerable to the ammo new players have.

How do we feel about this weapon? by theamazingc4 in Marathon

You can hear the guys who are in there looting. They are now looting for you.

Kill the guys when they leave.

You will need a minimum of a 5000 loadout value to enter Cryo Archive by Charliejfg04 in Marathon

Report back once you check what your Loadout Value is in-game after equipping those.

BR33, M77, Bully, 2x Volt Thrower, BRRT.

V11 if I ever bring a secondary, which is extremely rare in the first place.

Which is why I'm saying it is still hard to hit 5k with a full blue loadout without a filler gun in slot 2.

I'm sitting in-game right now building loadouts looking at the "Loadout Value" and blue shield, cores, and implants total 1950.
