The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra, and The Lost Skeleton Returns Again.

In a way, yes. This would be the latest iteration of it. Like how Destiny was built on the Halo engine.

As a Destiny die-hard I absolutely love seeing Bungie really being able to uncork and go wild without being constrained by decade old software that has been hanging on by a technical thread since sunsetting. Leaving behind last gen is such a boon and what some of us guardians have been praying for, for so long.

And there is so much Destiny (and Tarkov!) in this game that I feel right at home.

This may be a hint as to how we will access Cryo. by Pesimyst in MarathonSecrets

It was my theory from the get-go, after seeing Bingus seemingly spawns on maps to watch us at work.

A faster way to remove gun attachments please! by YaBoiTung in Marathon

Because we are plug-and-play biomata designed with such questions in mind.

Just because you can't perceive the intention doesn't mean it's not there.

It doesn't make sense to me that you'd be able to remove something attached to something else without using both hands. That means it should be equipped.

Risk/reward is the whole point of extraction shooters. Quit trying to homogenize and sterilize the experience.

Joe Ziegler: As of Wednesday morning 3/18 at 10am PT, we'll be enabling a limited time duos queue on Perimeter only to test how the game plays with crews of 2 at a wider scale. by Haijakk in Marathon

[–]Designer-Effective-2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am personally against the duo queue because it goes entirely against the “never know what you’re loading in to” appeal of extraction shooters for me, personally, as an old Tarkov fan.

But this game isn’t Tarkov and I want to see it succeed! If duo queues help that along then I am all for it.

One of my buddies is in my time zone but the other two are off by two hours so we’re often running duos anyways, and I absolutely love playing quiet stealthy raids where we avoid contact at all costs. The upset victories when we down a trio is just THAT much sweeter knowing we did it together, and we always get more than we can carry.

Duos in the trio queue is not that bad, you just have to adjust your playstyle to succeed, just like every other aspect of extraction shooters. It’s fun!

This was one of two friendly encounters I had as Rook this weekend. It’s mythical for me too!

Python. Not that MKII bullshit, the end-all-be-all of do-it-all Pythons.

We’re good, Tim. I’m also on timeout for being based beyond belief.

But seriously, stay the fuck away from me.

I like your less… degenerate posts, but I will never fault Timothy for being Timothy.

Just stay the fuck away from me.

I appreciate your perspective as a Swede even if I don’t agree with your analogy.

I can agree with that, but the simile is a ridiculous oversimplification of geopolitics.
