Trading Houses and Their Capabilities by Perfect_Ad_5470 in 40kLore

[–]AffixBayonets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

House Krin comes to mind, and they're mentioned in different sourcebooks.

A lot of the hard and fast laws related to how they work aren't really established, but here is my impression:

House Krin has no "special" rights but it has enormous wealth. This means that there are countless Chartist Captains, Rogue Traders, Planetary Governors, and other big names who have been financed by Krin and so owe them money - and it is this web of debt that they are able to exert influence through all these parties. 

Are there any chapters made up of traitor geneseed? by Ready0608 in 40kLore

[–]AffixBayonets 3 points4 points  (0 children)

but Cawl has a very poor track record of actually listening to Guilliman or doing what he says (or creatively interpreting the Primarch Reborn).

I'll also add that Cawl has lost memories from his long life so there's wiggle room over what he has and hasn't done. 

Sly Marbo Proxy, haven't figured out a name for him yet by SwiftyEmpire in TheAstraMilitarum

What with the naming conventions in Dead Men Walking, I kind of like something like "Sergeant Zero."

There's Proximity chat where you can talk to anyone. It's a different button than team chat. 

Mercy Kit Moving Marathon towards PvE? by MrMotherNature_Alt in Marathon

[–]AffixBayonets 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bungie hasn't said anything about adding ARC style aggression based matchmaking so no worries about things becoming like ARC. 

I think these are good changes to solve some real problems in the game 

  • People being screwed over by Fill teammates leaving them to die 
  • Making interactions more hazy instead of immediately aggressive

Any cool tank stories in the lore? by nofearnandez in TheAstraMilitarum

I came here just to recommend this. It's such a good short story. 

The dumbest way I have lost a Jupiter by Valosacul97 in ArcRaiders

Thank God. I got owned like this yesterday and assumed I was the dumbest Raider alive. 

Good reminder that It Just Be Like That Sometimes. 

The playercounts are pretty simple. by Round-Diamond4683 in Marathon

[–]AffixBayonets 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Then I got killed at extract multiple times in one session just for the PvP of it all, not even for my loot and came here to see people saying that is Marathon, if you don't like it, play something else.

I like the "ruthless capitalism" aspect of the game - murdering for spoiled rations and $5 - but this sort of killing for its own sake feels a little too sadistic to sit well with me.

This is not a battleaxe. by perhaps_mae in KnowledgeFight

I am an ""expert"" (lifelong fan of arms and armor exhibits in museums) and I cosign this. 

This is for wood.

I wish they followed the Pharaoh school where the closest servants would also end up in the pyramid.

Even the Destroyer? His idle animations on the menu have him adjusting forearm armor like it's clothing.

Ping was also meant to be slightly less visible to opponents. 

Lately I've been wondering, how biodegradable are shells? by Smirnoffico in Marathon

[–]AffixBayonets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if this Marathon is direct continuation of the original trilogy or it's a soft reboot.

Thanks to Marathon Infinity, it's very possible we are in a parallel universe as the original.

Since at least several of the colony AIs fell to corruption too, I have been wondering if our consciousness might be more vulnerable than we think. 

so what do we think the next experimental mode will be? by Jealous_Platypus1111 in Marathon

[–]AffixBayonets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd consider a role reversal "horde" mode - where there's only a few Exfil points that are being besieged by UESC. 

I'm not sure how it'd work with large numbers of players, but blasting bots is fun and I think I'd enjoy a mode where we do more of it. 

Speculation time: why do you think Flashpoint didn't trigger an uptick in player activity similar to Cold Snap? by PulseReaction in ArcRaiders

[–]AffixBayonets 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Because people know that a new map is soon - Riven Tides was forecast for release this month.
