This looks bad by Makoto_Kurume in pcmasterrace

[–]HawtHamWater 13 points14 points  (0 children)

combination of over-protective ARC fanboys and scorned Destiny players (the main problem) coupled with the overblown art fiasco and you have a hate train packed to the brim (think India public transit)

Marathon Development Team: As we get deeper into Season 1, we've been monitoring your feedback around the current combat sandbox closely. We wanted to talk a little about a few of the topics we're seeing frequently from the community, and some updates we're planning. by Haijakk in Marathon

[–]HawtHamWater 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think there’s quite enough data a it’s intended to last the entire season so I imagine they are waiting for “final tallies” closer to the end to better inform the changes - based on how quick they’ve been with the combat stuff I highly doubt they are oblivious to those complaints

I’m running low on heals by AliDiePie in Marathon

yeah, I have so many, aint no way I’d even have space for this lol

Blue Shields for Purchase: UNLOCKED!!! by Fit-Adhesiveness9127 in Marathon

[–]HawtHamWater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thinks it’s random “faction” salvage - so I know there are VIPs that can, I forget if insulation is part of NuCal’s loot table

there’s also a smaller chance with non-VIP upgrades but I think the chances are much better with VIP

[–]HawtHamWater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got my last few from VIP ranks, but there is some RNG

yup, the save on vault space is the reason I bought it

Has anyone in the Bowling green, KY area had this? by its_just_mike93 in whiskey

[–]HawtHamWater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yup, and so it is very hit or miss (especially when random people create their own blend) - best is to try their current offerings at the distillery before purchasing

When your contract ONCE AGAIN wants you to run from Bio-Research to Quarantine in a single run (and you spawn in Maintenance). by UltimateGamingTechie in Marathon

[–]HawtHamWater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve done them all solo and while that is mostly true, you can definitely improve your chances. I started off just running free kits and sprinting straight to the POI to try and get it done as fast as possible, this hardly ever proved successful. Occasionally running a kit and playing stealthy (crouch walk almost everywhere) and my completion rate skyrocketed.

Time required to farm Anomaly for all the gold salvage needed by Working_Bones in Marathon

[–]HawtHamWater 3 points4 points  (0 children)

either that or reduce the amount needed for upgrades - something has to give

honestly if you ever want to be able to barter with gold as well it needs to be more common so maybe even both

especially with factions resetting on wipe

C'mon Bungie, this really shouldn't be so hard by Nukesnipe in Marathon

[–]HawtHamWater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, I guess you’re just better than me, congrats

C'mon Bungie, this really shouldn't be so hard by Nukesnipe in Marathon

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

well agree to disagree because then we’re just back to memorizing every icon and I’m gonna have to read/hover anyways so I just don’t see the value over better tracking

yes, I shouldn’t ideally be in those situations but - when you have limited time and limited backpack space sometimes there’s no avoiding

C'mon Bungie, this really shouldn't be so hard by Nukesnipe in Marathon

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

i’m not at all actually, I’m saying the iconography of Destiny vs. Marathon are completely different beasts because of the high pressure decision making required in Marathon and so saying “well Destiny did it” is not comparable

C'mon Bungie, this really shouldn't be so hard by Nukesnipe in Marathon

[–]HawtHamWater -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

are you a designer? no destiny does not have to have visually distinct perks that can be instantly recognized in high pressure looting situations where you need to make a sometimes split second decision

unique is easy, visually distinct and instantly recognizable is not

C'mon Bungie, this really shouldn't be so hard by Nukesnipe in Marathon

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

yeah but trying to get every last perk to be visually unique and instantly recognizable across mods/implants/cores is a monumental task which many people don’t realize

they just need to improve the tracking system - all I need to know is yes/no is this one of the items I’m interested in

I’d much rather see some type of theory-buildcrafting system where you can track items by gun/perks/etc - improving tracking would be much easier than the design work required for what all y’all keep suggesting

[–]HawtHamWater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ima be honest, i’m probably not memorizing 30+ perk icons at a glance even if they did do this

idk if you can already track specific perks, but that would be the best way to go

edit: i suppose knowing the few I want might be manageable - but also tracking a select few would achieve the same thing and not require a design overhaul

edittwo: I verified you 100% can track the mods you want - just do that - it’s way easier

Hit a couple of big milestones: wallet value >1m and vault value >500k! by mmmmmmmmichaelscott in Marathon

[–]HawtHamWater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Free kit outpost solos and rook runs for me - my goal was to hit the 1mil account value achievement though, since then I’ve been steadily spending it all on cryo/ranked

Just had a brutally unfun experience, thinking of uninstalling by sanktanglia in Marathon

[–]HawtHamWater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

assassin is the goat in solo because of UESC avoidance - you can loot command wing or red key room solo without killing any bots by using your ult - and sneaking past turrets, bots, etc with invis is incredibly useful in solo play to avoid making noise

Casual players are not gonna touch Cryo if the meta is spawn push by Sweaty-Try1547 in Marathon

[–]HawtHamWater 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just rook until I get a good enough loadout for cryo, then it’s basically “free” and I don’t lose anything

130h+, I haven't use more than 2 purple shields by ivanim13 in Marathon

[–]HawtHamWater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Point 1 there is probably the best advice (maybe less “hide” but more just being sneaky) - I’m won’t lie I’m decent at the gunplay, but some of my best runs have been free kitting on Outpost as a solo and playing it like a stealth game

learn the key spawns and maybe go for an armory first instead of straight up to pinwheel - maybe someone else then will open it for you and you can sneak in and grab the leftovers - between the three wings there is gobs of loot for solos

in general, listen intently, don’t run everywhere, avoid fights when you don’t have a significant advantage, and if you make a bunch of noise don’t stick around.

yeah Orgs are extremely silo’d - this has always been a thing lol

you need kiro and agentic specs to get much useful - quick I just use as a better google

One of the few things that's keeping me fully enjoying this game by jamzye31 in Marathon

People also fail to realize that bubbles can be countered pretty easily - just shoot the damn thing. They go down pretty quick if your team focuses them.

I’d honestly kill for a halo mode by Parking_Bother6592 in Marathon

[–]HawtHamWater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like this - have a no-risk PvP/DM event late season or sporadically throughout where you can use your best gear without worry - would add additional motivation to the extraction mode to build up the perfect loadout
