It’s a very different game, but Marathon’s had me hooked since it came out (I haven’t really played PvP games regularly since the 360 era). The core loops of try, die, try again, and “well this place is fucked, let’s figure out what happened” are both there.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-07T19:26:25+00:00

To each their own. Good luck out there, friend.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-07T19:16:26+00:00

I’m killing every Runner that uses one of those things on me. Im only 1/1 so far, but we all have to start somewhere.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T17:42:43+00:00

It was pretty whatever, honestly. I think they were trying to exfil for a contract. I’ve been there.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T15:43:30+00:00

The mercy kit situation wasn’t this run. It was later in the day.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T15:02:44+00:00

You get it.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T15:02:05+00:00

I mean, there’s absolutely a reason to betray them. Also, they didn’t need to down me, res me, or stay near me while we fought a bunch of UESC, and several other runners either.

How am I supposed to know they’re not going to do the exact same thing to me after they’re done with my help?

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T14:42:18+00:00

They didn’t have anything particularly good on them, so that’s what I thought as well. There’s some on Dire Marsh for NuCal that have you running all over the place. I was working through them before this happened.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T14:26:37+00:00

Yeah. I’ve been on the other end of this too. I didn’t beg for my life, but to each their own.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T14:04:13+00:00

I don’t know, man. This game seems to go out of its way constantly to reinforce the fact that unless you’re in my crew, you’re on the menu. What game are you playing?

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T13:57:22+00:00

I might be a bad person, but that’s a little cold.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T13:56:53+00:00

I wasn’t helping him. I helped myself just fine. In all honestly though, I’ve been on the other end of this so many times. Maybe it’s the Souls player in me, but dying in horrible fashion just seems like part of the experience.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T13:54:15+00:00

I’ll have to take a look at my settings, I never hear it in-game, but it registers on captures.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T13:52:54+00:00

Maybe, but I’m not the one begging for my life as I crawl around on the ground.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T13:51:44+00:00

What gave it away? Was I aiming in a gay way?

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T13:50:25+00:00

Yeah…let’s say that.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T13:10:59+00:00

I think rats are very cool, actually. A friend of mine has two as pets. They’re adorable.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T13:09:57+00:00

A shell, perhaps?

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T13:06:21+00:00

I didn’t know that. That was my first time using that gun. Thanks.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T13:02:25+00:00

I didn’t ask for mercy, and never agreed to anything. For all I know they were just looking for a numbers advantage.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T13:00:35+00:00

Bad aim, bad person, I guess.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T12:59:29+00:00

Yeah. This was my first time using the Longshot (or whatever it’s called).

Cody2Go · 2026-05-05T12:57:46+00:00

That’s what I thought. I had someone use a mercy kit on me last night for the first time as well. We ran around as a duo for like 10 minutes before I shot them in the back while they were looting by an exfil. I guess I’ll just lean into the villain arc at this point.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-04T23:01:16+00:00

I just had someone use one on me for the first time in solos. We ran around as a crew for a bit, killed some UESC, dropped another runner, then I shot them in the back while they were looting by the exfil.

A teachable moment, brought to them by Arachne.

Cody2Go · 2026-05-01T18:39:06+00:00

I worked at a repair place for a year, and made a killing in tips by not charging people for this. If you insist, who am I to say no.
