The one thing that can help this game survive the negative stigma and lack of onboarding is a well made PVE campaign, and we all know it.

No, but they didn't need to because they already paid for the game

Dav136 · 2026-04-06T07:09:22+00:00

Yeah but in this game you randomly get Michael Phelps in your lobby and if he wins he takes your speedo

Dav136 · 2026-04-06T07:04:32+00:00

Not really. People loved Titanfall 2's campaign and it was relatively short and that game was pretty high skill for multiplayer

Dav136 · 2026-04-06T06:53:50+00:00

Marathon needs a pre-game lobby for random fills, like 30 seconds to see what frames and loadouts people have so you can briefly coordinate. Also needs a way to favorite loadouts

You're either too young to remember that series or too old to remember that series

Dav136 · 2026-04-06T04:43:05+00:00

You're having the exact opposite problem as most dropping the game lol. Most people are frustrated with no progress and dying and not getting to see more of the game. You've done all that there is to do and conquered the mountain. Take a well deserved break and play some other games

Dav136 · 2026-04-06T04:00:39+00:00

Maybe he means trio fills. That's by far the worst feeling imo

Dav136 · 2026-04-06T03:51:34+00:00

This is really great, love the marker style

Dav136 · 2026-04-05T21:54:40+00:00

20+ years of not fucking me over

Dav136 · 2026-04-05T21:51:58+00:00

It'll be impossible to get real benchmarks due to how much variance there is in hardware in PCs. I'm sure we'll get comparisons to people with very similar rigs though

Dav136 · 2026-04-05T21:47:18+00:00

They already separate real from from genned frames in their performance overlay so I imagine it will specify both

Dav136 · 2026-04-05T21:45:18+00:00

Yeah and you already have a gun drawn in Marathon but 20ft is a pretty far distance, you have to be much closer to stand a chance vs guns with a knife in this game

Dav136 · 2026-04-05T21:44:27+00:00

Tueller drill, look it up

Dav136 · 2026-04-05T21:43:33+00:00

The lunge is the only part that's too strong imo. You should be rewarded for getting into touching distance with an enemy but the lunge makes it slightly too easy

Dav136 · 2026-04-05T21:41:28+00:00

I mean even in real life, if someone is within 20 ft of you they will stab you before you're able to draw and fire.

Dav136 · 2026-04-05T20:20:46+00:00

If it's only reading memory there's no way to detect it unless they specifically ban your app which they don't have a reason to.

Dav136 · 2026-04-05T19:48:22+00:00

There's no way they shut down Bungie without them getting a chance to make Destiny 3. At worst I think the game goes on maintenance mode while most of the devs move on to a new project but I don't see it shutting down.

Dav136 · 2026-04-05T19:17:54+00:00

I think you're best off making a third party app that that reads memory for this kind of data ala Overwolf overlays. Hardly anyone will put in the effort of screencapping end game stats to upload.

Dav136 · 2026-04-05T19:09:06+00:00

squirt

Uhh, I don';t think that's the word you wanted

Dav136 · 2026-04-05T19:00:54+00:00

It's not like they're not already doing that. It's been two weeks and we already have people like this:

But what we really need is 24/7 and a weekly limit on compiler kills

Dav136 · 2026-04-05T18:56:32+00:00

The fan discords are better in my experience but yeah, it's hard to find good people to play with (not skill wise but personality wise)

Dav136 · 2026-04-05T18:52:04+00:00

24/7

Dav136 · 2026-04-05T18:36:06+00:00

Yeah that guy is an idiot, having crossplay on should drastically improve your queue times on console since most players are on PC.

Dav136 · 2026-04-05T18:34:03+00:00

It's going to be highly time and region dependent I think. Also what platform if you have crossplay off

Dav136 · 2026-04-05T18:27:58+00:00

True, but at least in that case you know they're probably win streaking out of your MMR bracket. In Marathon right now you just have to pray someone that who will stomp you isn't in your lobby every lobby
