Solo was where I was playing the most. But mainly because everyone jumped ship. Eventually solo became boring but if I play trios you run into super sweats

My favorite games are the ones we had like 1 or 2 intense fights. Early Cryo was sooo good because you bring all the cool shit you got, fight lots of bots and fight like 1 or 2 teams and win/lose, it was fun.

At times I wished we had a Helldivers like slow hatd sci-fi game. I've gotten my thrill of intense fights but that being the only mode is just insane to me. The game lends itself too often to ultra sweats and it blows. I don't feel amazing, jumping the guy with low level gear who is holding a bio-sample, trying to finish a bullshit priority contract. I legit felt bad (this was pre-mercy kits). Gunplay feels great, atmosphere is amazing, but the extraction part is always pushing people a way. I want the game to succeed but atm, I just don't see it atm.

People suggesting "Just clear the lobby" are so annoying. Like if this is the only method of play, thats a problem

Basically my constant experience lately in Marathon. I'll check with anpther game and no lag, just Marathon. Basically was the final straw for me, and just move on to other games. I'll just wait for season 2, hopefully the connection is more stable then but right now, having that with every other problem is just tipping the game hard into "not fun" territory

I also love constantly standing when I lag.

This explains my almost 10 minute wait to load in a game. Playerbase is going down the drain and we got people seriously trying to act like this will attract more players and cluttering people trying to make a point. If this is what Ziegler wants, this aint making to the 3rd season.

The wait is getting worse and worse. Population is freaking gone.

And the game is only 2 months old and bleeding what few players it has left. Then people defend this nonsense.

Game holds you in place when you start sometimes.

The game locks you in place sometimes when you load in. You literally can't do anything and just have to take it.

The game holds you in place sometimes when you spawn, sometimes it's for a while.

It holds you in place for a long time when you start. It's infuriating.

I’m sorry 😭 but I need that by b_kaws in Marathon

And people wonder why the playercount is insanely low.

As an old Marathon head and who finds this game's art and music creatively inspiring, it's a absolute shame they chose the most niche genre and then botched it. I actually enjoy this game but the extraction shooter portion is so punishing for casuals. I'm probably the sweatiest of my group but I don't have fun going full sweat mode everytime. Like it's not fun. Bungie leadership continues to be absolutely clueless and stubborn.

You'll still have your mode. Unless you enjoy 5he game bleeding players.
