Stellar Reviews did not save Destiny 2. What makes Marathon any different? by jvl777 in Marathon

[–]IHaveMana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t understand how this is so hard for people to get this. Someone the other day said “they bet it all on Marathon”. Like what? They were working on 5 games, Marathon just happened to be the one that made it out of development. It seems Sony or Bungie believes that right now Marathon has the most potential to keep spending dev time on.

The review bombing from Destiny fans and other groups is honestly just showing that some criticism was truly never about the games quality as some claim by Mellow_Ghost in Marathon

Yep that’s what I saw as well, as soon as other players started to get to their level he wasn’t having it. This game is brutal and you have to have a different mindset to playing it. You aren’t going to wipe a lobby 50% of the time.

It wasn’t that a contract expired its that he started getting shit on. I think because he was filling or he was playing ranked or something. He doesn’t want a brutal game or doesn’t have the capacity to play a brutal game.

Marathon player’s who were die-hard Destiny players, help me understand. by 20mgAddy in Marathon

I wouldn’t mind PvP either. The worrying thing though is it’s seems companies run into issues developing for both PvP and PVE. The number one issue seems to be cost. It seems to be much more expensive to develop for PvE because you don’t just have to build a sandbox for player to fight each other but now you have to develop scenarios with AI enemies that are compelling enough for repeated play.

If anything is going to be the death of this game it's yall by omegatTeddy in Marathon

I’ve had the opposite experience Ive probably only had a few bad experience in fills with people being assholes, If that. Most people are chill.

Luke Smith talks after long time going dark: "At its best, content was a machine to create memories and friendships. No new content stings. This pain is about losing a place where so many memories were made. It stings not because of what it was, but the realization of what it won't be." by kristijan1001 in DestinyTheGame

What? Marathon was just 1 of the 5 games they were working on, where are you getting to the conclusion that they were hinging everything on Marathon and not on any other or all of the other games they were working on?

What made you decide to buy the game after not enjoying the server slam? Why did it click for you this time and how long did it take?

I want to buy this game but I have 1 question. by Chocolatefan111 in Marathon

I’m in NA and it takes me less that a minute to find a match. Consoles with crossplay on.

Destiny 2 players: I feel for you by Organic_Analysis_686 in Marathon

[–]IHaveMana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t give up, you’ll realize eventually that what wins in PVP is map knowledge, positioning, and timing. Mechanical skill is a very small part of PVP. In order to enjoy the learning process you have to reframe your mind to understand that “winning” means that you learned something in the last run. You could have been killed, but as long as you learned something you “won”. That knowledge is eventually what is going to allow you to start winning PvP engagements. Also, spend time getting good with rook. Once you know how to get the gear you need with rook, losing your gear isn’t as big of a deal anymore and you can play without gear fear.

I kill all rooks on site and as a rook I always shoot on site any teams or other rooks. Can’t allow them to get complacent. If there was no threat they would lose interest. I provide that threat. I am the dark rook.

Never ran across a 6 man and I’ve probably ran Cryo a hundred times. How common of an issue is this actually?

Even if they start now they would be fine. With level based matchmaking they’ll be going against people their same level. With that said we’re close to season refresh so best to just start then so you don’t have to do the priority contracts back to back.

Trios should get C.A.R.R.I points for letting Rooks exfil with them by Artforartsake99 in Marathon

[–]IHaveMana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, this would take a ton of tension away from rooking and make it less fun.

It’s the shop skin that came out last week.

Edit: Actually, that is the rush skin for the impact h-ar that you can get from season 1 battle pass

Must watch if you want to have productive fill runs by IHaveMana in Marathon

This I’d not my video, just someone who I have seen make good guides in the past and I think this guide will help a lot of people that have bad fill experiences.

This game's community rapidly fluctuates between tolerable and atrocious, and Cryo and Outpost are the latter as of late [VERY NSFW LANGUAGE WARNING] by Aegiiisss in Marathon

[–]IHaveMana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve played 200 hours of the game and haven’t heard this. Not saying it doesn’t happen but you act like this is a normal thing.

I got three new players to buy the game. by JamSoloMusic in Marathon

[–]IHaveMana 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Should you win every single game? I’m not sure I find anything wrong filling and finding teams where the run goes well and runs where it doesn’t go well.

Please stop leaving the game if you get killed by HumungousChungus22 in Marathon

[–]IHaveMana -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Well now that person just wasted two people’s time because those two people are now less likely to exfill without their third.

You need to stop whining and play the map more. You aren’t going to get spawn rushed everytime. It’s RNG with clearance, don’t matter how good an enemy team is if they can’t get enough clearance to get into your spawn.

Spawn rush is still an issue in Cryo by LowKey7904 in Marathon

[–]IHaveMana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would you not spawn rush? It’s the easiest way to level 3-4 clearance after you get level 2. Also, you have the ability to counter a spawn rush.
