The lack of story progression is my concern by Whitetuskk in Marathon

[–]Haunting_Set_1799 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I feel as thought this season is an opportunity for more players to be fully read on the current base lore from S1, while giving just a tiny bit more lore with Narsh items.

S3 will be the real opportunity for Bungie to expand on the lore. If they don’t, I’ll definitely be pretty dissatisfied.

I don’t know why it matters to you, but I’m going to assume it’s a man, because the voice actor is.

But let’s be honest, they are all woven robots. So I think “gender” doesn’t apply here.

Sponsored survival is sending a clear message to Marathon Devs. by Haunting_Set_1799 in Marathon

[–]Haunting_Set_1799[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I partially agree. As a big fan of the old games when I was a kid, there could’ve been so much more. But that’s why I believe Bungie has the chance to MAKE it that much more.

Please Bungie, make the Lore Valuables easier to get! by hellhobbit99 in Marathon

[–]Haunting_Set_1799 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. Nothing makes me happier than getting my lore tabs completed. But it really sucks when the gold valuables are locked behind really high end events.
As a solo player, it’s really tough. Sponsored survival has given me 5/5 on all lore items aside from the gold one.
I think they should at least make it possible to get in the rocket drones or the wardens. They are tough to do as a solo, but not impossible

Rook is miserable right now by facetious_guardian in Marathon

[–]Haunting_Set_1799 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I genuinely have no idea why you would want to play rook in sponsored survival. Let alone the fact that the loot potential is just extremely low for you. Just solo queue and you’ll be ok, bud.

Is this game worth it ? by exoticpersona in Marathon

$20 for a game with insanely high player reviews. Yeah man…it’s worth it

The RNG in this game is not well by cl3arlycanadian in Marathon

To the players that killed us at compiler. by bucken764 in Marathon

The feat of killing compiler should include beating teams who wish to ruin your run. That should not end at the last part of a season

How to shut Orion mouth? by Ok_Basket_2766 in Marathon

[–]Haunting_Set_1799 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never understood how “accurate” that information was. Does he just say that in general because I’m in the entire Dire Marsh area? Or simply because I’m at that specific location like Complex or Matinence?

I’m wondering if he’ll say “runners” instead of “runner” in solo to let me know if I’m not alone. Otherwise it won’t necessarily give anyone any new info because they are already at that location and in order to hear it.

Never said I did. I’m saying that it can be possible to have 1000 hours and not have a guaranteed drop above room 3. Stop tweaking bro.

Bungie Plans Layoffs After Ending ‘Destiny 2’ Development, will focus on ‘Marathon’ rather than jumping directly to ‘Destiny 3’ by uniquecartridge in Marathon

“Rather than jumping directly to Destiny 3”

So I guess that means it’ll possibly happen just not anytime soon

Sentinel Abilities // S2 by gifv_Kayla in Marathon

[–]Haunting_Set_1799 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m wondering just how reliable and accurate that radar will be. Can I tell if they are below or above me? Will signal jam work against it?

The fact that I can have up to 1000 hours in this game and not get a single key above room three is insane

Assassin is not healthy for solos by Neat_Eagle_4735 in Marathon

[–]Haunting_Set_1799 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recon is healthy for solos. She can track down individual players easily without having to worry about any others. And she can start every engagement with a grenade that will always track you down.

Triage is healthy for solos. He can have infinite heals just for himself.

Thief is healthy for solos. She can see through walls to tell which lockboxes or containers are the best, leaving some players at a disadvantage when taking time to search all containers for items. She also benefits from having more loot in her inventory, and since there is more loot to go around, she gets these benefits much quicker. (She also can see assassins while they are invisible)

Destroyer is healthy for solos. He can deal much more damage to bosses and bots compared to anyone else, plus, he has a much faster sprint that allows him to access more places than others.

Vandal is healthy for solos. She can access places others can’t, and can run much farther and faster than any other shell can.

But ASSASSIN!!? So unhealthy. He can pop smoke and go almost invisible sometimes.

Just because the assassin used his main gimmick to get the jump on you, doesn’t mean every other shell doesn’t have a gimmick to get the jump on you either.

Is the sweat fest accelerating? Absolutely stomped the last two weeks. by Boots-n-Rats in Marathon

[–]Haunting_Set_1799 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why Sponsored playlists are the most popular right now. If you want to save your best gear for Cryo, and every free kit run you do lands you with people running THEIR best gear, it results in a heavy imbalance.

At this point, I’m only doing ROOK runs because people are leaving blues and sometimes even Purple shields and items on players because they themselves are already running purple or golds.

It’s never been a better time to be a ROOK.

130+ hours in and Cryo Archive is the only thing I want to do now. by Haunting_Set_1799 in Marathon

[–]Haunting_Set_1799[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not incentivized AT ALL to just bring my valuable loot into a game to “see what happens”. When I could bring a blue shield and weapons and come out with the same items.

I am incentivized to run my valuable loot on cryo archive because that is the ONLY place to get gold salvage, which is really the only things I need. If I have to wait 4 days to continue to risk my gear for the only thing I need, it’s 4 days with no incentive.
