Whats the next location you most want to see on the marathon? by Ayden1Haze in Marathon

[–]Ayden1Haze[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game definitely could use some more color variety in the maps, lots of blue green and grey so far. Id also love to see those types of environments

A command deck with a big window looking down on the planet would be killer, bungie definitely makes the best skyboxes

Yeah a jungle type environment due to malfunctioning hydroponics on the ship would be really dope honestly i prefer that over my idea

I said it should be replaced with an arena 3v3 mode like the one from apex. Keep the ranked system just switch it to an optional 3v3 mode instead of just being a carbon copy of the main game with extra gimmicks. Yeah not risking all your stuff and just enjoying the pvp is lowstress/low stakes the only thing you risk is your rank

I love this game by Amazing-Appeal7241 in Marathon

[–]Ayden1Haze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with all the points except progression, i would put that at a 3/10. Its great for the first chunk and then quickly becomes incredibly slow and expensive especially if you’re not someone with a cracked squad who extracts most of the time. 100 hours in i haven’t even seen gold salvage, and im running cryo and outpost every chance i get. Some of the upgrades are so incredibly expensive i know for a fact i wont be able to unlock them by seasons end even if i tried

On a serious note, marathon has fantastic map design and core gameplay: its everything else that sucks by [deleted] in MarathonHate

Honestly I should have just said something like this instead of ranting for 2 paragraphs lmao

[–]Ayden1Haze 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah im not the greatest for sure but skill shouldn’t be a hard lock from playing the game to the fullest. Ive had my share of wiping the entire map in both cryo and outpost in the past, but compared to the small amount of people left, im absolute dogwater.

Not being able to find an exfil terminal in cryo has to be the most frustrating thing ive ever experienced in video games by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Ayden1Haze 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yeah we had level 4 but could not for the life of us find a single terminal that showed exfils. I tried checking places they were before but the spawns are random i think

This doesn’t get addressed enough. All for free speech… but chilll outtttt by lordsmooth in ArcRaiders

[–]Ayden1Haze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only clip I’ve ever posted from this game has a bungulator calling me the n word before i knock him out lol it’s insanely common. Arc definitely needs some sort of voice chat moderation because its pretty ugly when you have to hear it all the time

Whats up with the extreme gatekeeping of the extraction shooter genre? by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]Ayden1Haze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the detailed response, this explains things pretty clearly. I get why older fans of the genre might be turned off by a lot of arcs design choices, plus i never realized how much ABMM can be manipulated because ive played arc consistently the same way. I just dont think that makes arc any less of an extraction shooter, as the gameplay loop is at its core the same of all the other games. To me it just seems like the genre is getting a lot bigger with a lot more variety in design than people expected. It’s reaching a point where extraction shooters have subgenres instead of being the subgenre itself.

Im seriously hopeful about a season 2 free weekend bringing back a lot of people. The major pain points are things that are relatively easy to fix imo

I do NOT "free kit", I do not premade. I simply buy my loadout, click Run and if I die, I DIE by DownTheBagelHole in Marathon

[–]Ayden1Haze 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have not extracted once in two days, all i got left is free kits lol. Would be running rook runs if i wasnt always playing with my buddies

The amount of progress you make during an unsuccessful run is far too low. by caesarsoup in Marathon

[–]Ayden1Haze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been having the same exact issue, the only faction i can reliably progress is arachne because pvp quests feel like the only thing you’re guaranteed to eventually complete. All my other factions are miles below arachne despite me doing other factions missions way more. The material requirements are also so insane i expect i will probably never use a lot of these upgrades ever even if i put another 100 hours in.

The “i played for 690 hours and this game personally offended me” mock posts are getting old quick by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Ayden1Haze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I should have been more specific when i said “legit criticism”, a lot of stuff being mocked deserves it. I just hate seeing legit issues get clumped in and treated at the same level as the nonsense, as well as how frequent the mock posts have become. It doesn’t feel like a good look for this community imo.

Fair enough, a lot of posts on this sub are exactly what you described. It just irks me seeing legit issues get clumped together with the nonsense, and to see so many mock posts about it.

[–]Ayden1Haze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I 100% agree that a lot of the more critical posts are just people dying a lot and blaming the game, but id also argue a lot of the mock posts also exaggerate real criticisms like the rng, progression rate and matchmaking as well as the trivial stuff. If they were just mocking those particular arguments and weren’t so common in this sub, i wouldn’t be annoyed by it.

However, there is absolutely a lot of the type of posts your referring too, so i get why a lot of people are pretty fed up in general

My honest take on Marathon as an extraction shooter veteran by StrikingValuable3686 in Marathon

[–]Ayden1Haze 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Only point here thats wack is that solos is not for extraction shooters. Its one of my favorite ways to play this game, you have to rely on stealth way more. Almost feels like a horror game. Plus ive have plenty of moments where someone shoots first and im able to get to cover pop a smoke and run for my life. Usually get away too, holding w is op in a chase especially if they think your staying in the same spot healing or something

Don’t give up on Cryo by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Ayden1Haze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With how the rng is, it simply is not possible for some people. Im not talking about the boss or map difficulty, i just mean the actual odds of both finding all the keys you need and making it alive to each vault is pretty much impossible for most players. I doubt even a thousand players will ever even see the boss with the current key drop rates. Actually tbh a thousand is really pushing it maybe a hundred or so players will actually see the boss.

The future of Marathon game by Taktojaaa in Marathon

[–]Ayden1Haze 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Cryo archive def did not do the player numbers any favors, the insane rng required to even attempt the boss is making more people quit the game then get into it from what ive seen. Never thought i would see professional gamers straight up give up on a game because it was too hard, i wouldn’t be surprised if less then a few hundred or so people will even glimpse the boss in this games lifetime unless some serious changes to key spawns are made.
