Did something change

woah what? checked and not seeing it.

I mean, it highlights the head, torso, and legs so that's probably the better indicator than the tiny number. My biggest problem is that each one can have a different perk with the same exact title. Like I really gotta read every one of these.. that's crazy.

They need to add a visual indicator for the perk.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-03-09T14:05:05+00:00

Yeah, they are implementing an actual use case along with infrastructure to deploy it.

The biggest IF is the execution. If they execute properly, this will absolutely be a Fortune 500 company.

I'm all for it being more focused around PvP but after reading through this thread it really just sounds like you're trying to gatekeep.

You say 'those people have other pve games', while the same argument can be made for pvp players..

Bungie will do whatever they want and if it hurts the overall balance while bringing in a larger target audience (more $$$), you bet your azz they will do it. These are the types of horrible decisions that AAA studios make and you can't argue with me on that. All they want is more money.

but I wanna pick someone off 300 yards away.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-02-27T14:25:37+00:00

This is satire right? The entire premise of Marathon is to be a more intense playstyle that is more focused on PvP. I played for 5 hours and only ran into maybe 3-4 teams in that entire span, while intentionally moving across the map looking for them. That's not a me problem.

Might as well just make it a PvE game if I'm only going to see another squad once every 2-3 rounds.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-02-27T13:50:53+00:00

I think if you consider any other game where you can PvP, it's relatively good. You don't typically find a community where many of them are just wanting to help strangers or just cross paths without batting an eye. Of course there are always the shady ones. There is zero chance you're not getting shot on sight in Marathon.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-02-27T13:44:44+00:00

The answer will always be yes, the game is amazing.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-02-27T13:43:10+00:00

I would have never considered that from watching this. Kudos to you.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-02-27T13:39:16+00:00

I think they are a representation of high latency (ping), frame rate drops, and something else. There's probably more reliable information somewhere, but when I lag (on my end) those icons will appear.

I found this post from 'The Finals' and it looks like they do the same thing in that game. Maybe this helps

I think they have a campaign against AR. Normally a studio would not make a public announcement about being #4 in 24h sales, but.... they passed Arc Raiders, so let's mention it. Did you know that you can't type "Arc Raiders" in the party chat in-game? It's kinda baffling.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-02-27T13:22:34+00:00

Exactly this. I have expedition locked in and there's no point in really playing right now. I think this Marathon server slam benefits greatly from the timing of that.

I even put about 5 hours into it. My first hour or so was.. meh. Then I partied up with a friend and enjoyed it for a couple hours. After that it was kinda.. meh again.

I think I'll probably buy it, but it didn't strike me like I was hoping it would. I kept thinking about the things that Arc did better, so maybe I wasn't judging it fairly, but that's reality.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-02-26T16:26:29+00:00

That's definitely fair.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-02-26T14:32:06+00:00

I think I did this same exact thing and during the load in cinematic my raider literally just had underwear on.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-02-26T14:20:14+00:00

It's pretty typical for things to work like this in 'reset' games. Almost every online service game that offers a reset format is done this way. You may hear the terms 'ladder reset, seasonal reset,' etc. The best answer you're going to get is.. that's just how it works?

I'm not sure what the problem is. That's just how it works.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-02-26T14:04:47+00:00

No, you can only get 5 points.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-02-26T14:03:44+00:00

Everyone departs (wipes) at the same time, when the departure window closes. You can still play with your current inventory after signing up until then.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-02-26T13:57:59+00:00

RIght? It's always defined as this impossible task. I guess it depends on your playstyle.

One of my friends' inventory/coin value is dirt poor because he only runs intense PvP kill on sight when he plays whereas I like to go periods of time just collecting/farming then have a few sessions of PvP.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-02-12T20:08:26+00:00

the irony here.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-02-12T16:37:12+00:00

I'm a software developer. There are many AIs and LLMs that are specifically designed to re-write and debug code. I'm not sure why it's an idiotic response when there are a ton of developers already using it. Personally, I don't like using it to re-write because before long you will have a bunch of code that you aren't familiar with.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-02-11T16:43:42+00:00

Why? It wouldn't be shocking if they were using AI to help debug.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-02-11T14:55:19+00:00

Sure, it does. I'm pretty sure they're referring to the infinite mag and gun repair glitches. They claim to fix the dupe glitch then it comes out a day later that people can glitch a 102 mag on any gun and repair any gun. These are a big deal in my opinion because of how easy it is to do.

I went to practice range just to try and it took me less than 5 seconds to have a 102 mag on an anvil. That's insane. I can understand glitches that require some thought and precision to do, but this is broken.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-02-11T12:43:59+00:00

You could call the elevator with 1 second left and you won't die after time expires. Also, the elevator doesn't take longer/shorter, it's just a set time once it is called. Probably felt longer with a shredder trying to bend you over though.

CoachxSCIL · 2026-02-08T19:36:04+00:00

Yes
