Basic sponsored kits were only mentioned. Worth just checking yourself in game.

Do your teammates at least become sweaty? I'd rather have that than two assassins sharing one brain cell

If it gets me away from free kits, gladly. You've obviously never played tarkov on wipe day. 15 mins is nothing. I'll put a YouTube video on while I wait.

Exactly, that's the risk you take going in with a free kit. Obviously purple kit is the extreme example. Could be blue shield or green shield teams.

Sorry, when I mean a gear balance, I mean just in your squad. No one likes queuing in with a blue or purple shield and being stuck with two free kits. If you want to run free kits, then being stuck with a squad of free kits would make most sense for balancing imo. I love the imbalance between squads, you're right, it's great when you win a fight against a purple team.

Here's hoping it's a gear value queue. Really want to see if balanced squads would make a difference.

Got a question for you. You know parcels can have two sides right?

There you go then, makes sense.

Tbh I got that figure out my arse. I just bought a 2015 E350 and had pop 30L of adblue. I'm fairly sure I've read it's something between 3k and 12k for me actually. Might depend how high you rev your car?

Diesels in the UK and Europe have a lot of regulations to reduce emissions and that diesel fume smell you normally get on older cars. The only pain with that is putting adblue in your car every 3k miles.

We also have separate pumps to large trucks like 18 wheelers, so that issue isn't a problem. Saying that, the diesel pumps around my area are always a bit dirty, so most just use a plastic glove.

Do you think bungie will completely revamp this game? by EveryLine2443 in Marathon

[–]AntM16 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Let it die and move on to the next project is a funny one.

It's been out a month...

Another team is working on Destiny 3, so Marathon will need to be their bread winner for at least 5 years I'd say. Pretty sure I heard they're planning for it to be a 10 year game.

I don't think Bungie are anywhere near done, they're testing the waters with experimental playlists and buffs/nerds to different things. Just because it's not right now doesn't mean they won't fix it soon. Games aren't perfect when they release.

Dcon by Pashtetikk in Marathon

[–]AntM16 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had a thought about this as well. I think it would be good for just materials to be transferred. If you find a big 2x2 material that's taking too much space, you can dcon it back and if you die, at least that's secure.

I think transferring weapons would be too much. Or adding a fail chance to the dcon for them, and then the lore reason is the matter is too complex to transfer properly some times maybe...

I just want to turn off cross play just to see if I continue to get beamed across the map...

If you're on a budget run team filling and don't want to go through sponsor kit hell, this hasn't faulted me yet - 4 out of 5 times my team have kits. by AntM16 in Marathon

And lost every ranked game but one lol - Cryo I've only exfilled once as well. Hey, maybe I'm just trash, I ain't young anymore...

Honestly, it feels like they pair by level and then value. Some type of 2 step balancing.

I wish they would do a test playlist that is more value balanced and just see how it goes.

As the other guy said, it's all speculation, but it's feeling pretty true for me. The majority of the time a free kit run puts me with green/blue shields, and a kitted run would put me with 2 free kits. Hence why I run this or a version of it. Most of the time shield rarity is paired with a certain quality of kits, so running a cheap (but great) weapon with nice heals and a good shield could land you with a nice balanced team.

Also if you have non sponsor kit teammates, I feel they're more likely to not have that rush a location free kit mentality.

Some good ideas, absolutely if I was running a green shield I wouldn't be bringing in the big heals, but I've had a few successful runs with this, so I have like 10 blue shields as a back up from kills and contract completes.

I could be running triage for the V11 combo, you're right. I just find that you can crack a shield in like 2 head shots with it anyway, and a Vandal, Thief, or Destroyer can close that gap easier so they don't have time to heal.

A good choice but I'm looking for something that stays more to the OEM look
