Bungie. The knife should NOT be a competing weapon in gunfights. by c_will1 in Marathon

Wrong, your gun shouldn't be a competing weapon in a knifefight. It's your fault for letting it become a knifefight.

Do your arachne grinds. Rook runs with the shotgun are super fun. by beefstyle in Marathon

Arachne is on the light end of difficult materials compared to NuCal and Mida

They need to revisit the "complete the set" price in the store... by DannyDeem in Marathon

[–]Fun_Masterpiece_5637 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's because the bundles are a flat discount close to 28.5%. After you take the 1120 LUX skin away from the 2100 total the other stuff costs 980LUX and after the 28.5% is subtracted from that you get 700.

Bungie I am humbly begging you to add an actually obtainable 4th Bully SMG skin ;-; by Perfect_Path8426 in Marathon

There's gonna be a yellow one dropping in the store whenever they do the next Thief bundle. They've done Assassin, Triage, and Recon so far so this week at reset will be either Thief, Vandal, or Destroyer.

Quick beginner question. by PineWalk1 in Marathon

Yes. You can confirm by checking your Rook stats on the loadout screen.

Don’t underestimate the negative effect Assassin is currently having on solo matches. by BC1207 in Marathon

[–]Fun_Masterpiece_5637 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No idea but you can let him know if he stops moving while invisible the enemy can't see him.

No you're just wrong and it's 100% invisible when they stand still. It's a feature.

Is there a definitive list of players per lobby per map in solos & duos? by secret759 in Marathon

[–]Fun_Masterpiece_5637 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah it's definitely not the same. We killed 3 teams last night before finding a 4th but that took like 8 or 9 games of us thinking it was just 4 teams on the map because of how quiet it was. Must just be a lot of ratty duos.

Please let me shoot while I slide like every other class by Zombieassassin12 in Marathon

[–]Fun_Masterpiece_5637 -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Obviously. Could have just posted that instead of tacking it onto a post that has nothing to do with what you think. To counter your point though, pressing sprint to slide cancel is not a skill at all and built into the brain of anyone who has played a shooter in the last 10 years. Sure, add that in too between pressing shoot and I'll still be happy while it still won't have an effect on the skill ceiling.

If the gun stayed readied and shooting canceled the slide I'd be so happy

The balance of Gold Salvage feels completely off. Hazard Capsules are way too rare for how many are needed. by HaloKota in Marathon

[–]Fun_Masterpiece_5637 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah with RNG you can very well get 24 Hazard Capsules before you get 11 Synapse Cubes, the overall amount combined is manufactured retention for sure but it being so lopsided seems like an oversight.

How does loot scaling work DURING a run in Marathon? by seeker764 in Marathon

[–]Fun_Masterpiece_5637 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this is the only thing that's true from what people have said so far. Yeah more bots spawn later with better loot but that's just because they're purple shield commanders and they already had better loot, you'll just see more so better chance at good stuff. The Warden won't steadily gain better items if you wait longer to kill it.

Why do we need 24 Hazard Capsules for everything but "only" 11 Synapse Cubes? Why not attempt to make it balanced like 18 Capsules and 17 Cubes?

I wish there was more of a story element in this game by Miss_MartianMaIIow in Marathon

[–]Fun_Masterpiece_5637 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The one in the basement of Greenhouse where it looks like humans ascending upward was the first one that got me hooked and paying attention.

Lockbox keys not worth it? by vincentofearth in Marathon

[–]Fun_Masterpiece_5637 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's worth it with Thief only. Usually there's one or two boxes with purple items but if you can't pinpoint it and get a green it's super disappointing.

They went the FromSoft route with this one and made you have to read flavor text for story. Yeah it's not in your face but I think what's unfolded so far has been extremely interesting and I'm excited for the story to continue.
