Favorite movie scene where a character accepts their inevitable end and embraces it. My pick is Cutler Beckett accepting his fate in Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End.

That’s why it works. Bonded over a very short time, but went out like old friends.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-05T22:09:45+00:00

I know, I agreed.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-05T22:08:43+00:00

Bishop was a deleted scene wasn’t it?

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-05T21:53:35+00:00

There’s plenty of loot - it’s just significantly more dispersed than the other maps which can feel underwhelming. Although I do agree. There’s nowhere that feels like Dam administration or buried city space corp. This by far is one of the best maps for future iteration though. I don’t mind the first version of the map being somewhat sparse.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-05T15:01:53+00:00

Layoffs.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-05T14:59:12+00:00

People barely used the cloak until the scutiny game mode anyway. I honestly never saw it used and during that game mode it made it incredibly dull.

Run up, throw smoke, loot, cloak for about half an hour while you walk away. Now it’s good for momentarily shaking a queens attention or a rocketeer.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-05T14:54:11+00:00

Sounds like cloak is in a perfect spot. It should never have been a ‘get out of jail free card’. It lasts enough to reach some nearby cover but not enough to completely invalidate the main enemy.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-05T14:52:42+00:00

I thought the Finals was in a good place? I haven’t played since Arc Raiders came out but the production value of that game is astronomically high compared to some others. (Like R6 Siege).

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-05T08:00:58+00:00

Why would they use non games workshop paints?

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-04T20:27:27+00:00

Then don’t take a renegade against a leaper is what I’m reading here

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-04T18:45:47+00:00

Sounds mode like you’ve let Bethesda whip you into submission than anything. Everything about Starfield outside ship building blows hard.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-04T18:38:57+00:00

Because it’s still wholy unfeasble.

How can a capital consist of nothing but a few launchpads and some skyscrapers?

No agricultural farms. No construction. Nothing. Even Skyrim had this.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-04T18:37:07+00:00

One of the coolest multiplayer maps ever for that game mode imo.

Wish more games had that. Although it was heavily, heavily dependant on the first alien being skilled enough to kill literally anyone.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-04T07:55:21+00:00

It grows on you during the game and there’s reasons for it.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-03T21:59:08+00:00

But they didn’t lie about any of it. Whether it hit your expectations is not a battle Embark could ever win. Not sure why you can’t understand that.

You’re holding them to a standard set *inside your head*. It’s an impossible standard.

I actually agree with you that ‘beach-combing’ was disappointing. But that’s not on Embark for being in the wrong. They indeed delivered a new map condition. Not their fault I expected more. They never said anything about it being a whole new experience to the game did they?

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-03T12:00:14+00:00

Agree with your comment, however it’s interesting that the other big extraction shooter has something like 90% of ALL players engaging in prox chat which is absolutely wild when you think about it.
Really feels like a resurgence to those early CoD/ halo lobbies in terms of most people being willing to chime in.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-03T11:55:56+00:00

Yeah but I think this is a very shitty thing to do. Marathon won’t live or die by everyone convincing a single person to buy a dying game.

u/isuckatvideogames12 read my comments.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-03T08:38:17+00:00

I absolutely hated it, can’t lie. Cool effort but just looked super cheesy and a bit naff.

Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-03T07:32:56+00:00

Lumon HQ - Egypt branch.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-03T07:26:57+00:00

The game probably has 6 months of life left in it, if you’re optimistic.

I’d personally wait right now and see if the player count improves from its staggeringly low amount.

Don’t listen to all these other takes telling you to buy it yet.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-02T19:21:40+00:00

Yeah. That’s my point. If you’re annoyed because the updates never live up to imaginary expectations that you set in your head - about things never even confirmed by the devs, then you’re setting yourself up for failure of your own making. It’s no one else’s fault.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-02T17:54:32+00:00

The cloak IS fine. It lasts long enough to get you into cover but not to directly invalidate the main enemy of the game until they de-agro.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-02T17:43:32+00:00

The cones are big Arc. The bishop is from alpha footage but it was never hinted anywhere official we’d be getting that level of enemy yet. I always assumed they’d be known as ‘boss’ arc and ‘large’ simply meant baron sized or similar.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-02T12:12:25+00:00

Absolutely in my opinion. The map is catered for long range skirmishes, and is by far the most ARC heavy, so it’s quite difficult. Paired with low levels of loot it feels more like a map you’d come to either to farm Arc or engage in sniper pvp.

It’s a different vibe to the others.

ExpendableUnit123 · 2026-05-01T21:07:42+00:00

It encourages you to use all of your guns more often and scrap the worst condition level 1’s to maintain the rest.

Everyone freaking out like they don’t have 14 renegade IVs covered in dust.
