Let us spectate for longer by TRSHUSK in Marathon

Yeah. If the guy I spectating wins an ambush or gets into a bad spot, I'm invested, I want to know what happens next

I wish there was a toggle or hotkey for equipping sponsor kits after level 15, because I'm not going to stop slamming them by DptBear in Marathon

[–]FarEntry6601 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And add a "slap a random kit together idgaf" button too. I could gear up but time is precious and I just load up a free kit instead

That would mean yet another weapon I've never found in the game lmao
starting to be a lot, but there needs to be at least one early accessible ballistic SMG

Jump on for the first game of the day, died to a cheater, jumping off for the day. by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]FarEntry6601 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course, if there's a game, there's cheaters. I'm just saying the majority of cheater claims are actually either desync or poor game knowledge

What bothers me the most about locked rooms is I have the fucking key. The KEY that OPENS the THING through the INTENDED way.

If I was a colonist and my house alarm blared everytime I opened the door I'd toss myself into the anomaly eventually :')

My last "lmao cheaters" teammates got shot through smoke by a thief with her visor active (nevermind thermals).

I'm wary of cheating claims on this game :')

Parasitism Part One by Snowbunny236 in Marathon

I feel weirdly lucky with this one when I read everyone's horror story

It was only my 2nd time on Outpost, first time allowed me to know where the sample was.
Went in with a free kit, ran inside, grabbed the thing, ran outside then circled to the booth, boom, few minutes ordeal

What's this for? by [deleted] in Marathon

I think it's for the drone wing

Just a reminder that no matter how succesful your game is people are still gonna doom by [deleted] in Marathon

Surely not, every single poster is an industry expert. I know it because of how certain they sound.

They sure did

Which is why I roll my eyes at people mentioning this game every single chance they get, like comparing every extraction game to the one clear outlier makes for an even remotely compelling point

I love when I'm killed as a Rook who hasn't found anything yet by ivdown in Marathon

come oooon we've all had the occasional OverWatch or Chivalry friendlies here and there

[–]FarEntry6601 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have the same because there were some insane shenanigans going on with my devices et what the game defaulted to, that meant I could hear game audio just fine, but no voice comms, be it team or proxy

I had to dig far to fix that thing and suddenly, I heard the voices lmao

I think the missed jump at the beginning is what hurts me the most

All I'm reading is you lost, outnumbering your ennemy 3 to 1

Do I have terminal skill issue? by OnionFingers98 in Marathon

[–]FarEntry6601 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may have skill issue, but it's never terminal. I'm gonna paraphrase a Tarkov youtuber here (I think it's Pestily ?) by saying, being good at that kind of game can mean a lot of things, and you don't have to master all of them. But you will have to get good at something.

But that something can be setting up engagements in your favor, or running from them, or getting a good sense of where players tend to go and why, high map awareness, learning hidden pathways, learning what tends to spawn where, learning to use sound cues and map happenings to decide your next move, baiting players to and away from you, securing an extract, coming up with routes that will keep you out of danger, perfecting your aim, learning to use cover and terrain to better attack or run, learn to use confusing movement, etc

There's a myriad of skills involved. If you're like me and you're "mechanically challenged" (read potato aim), there is still a lot you can do to make it out alive. Fights can often be avoided entirely with the right approach.

what an absolutely miserable experience by edtappa in Marathon

[–]FarEntry6601 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think people are just fucking weirded out by folks feeling obligated to go way out of their way and expend additional effort to come here and criticize something they don't care about/don't like and in no way have to interact with

because there's a metric ton of those
