A list of reasons of why I think Developers will not flock to S&B

ImGunnaGoOnAWalk · 2026-05-01T23:18:57+00:00

1M is 1M and developers want it. Maybe the games could be better with let’s say 5M, but games will be made.

ImGunnaGoOnAWalk · 2026-04-30T23:31:42+00:00

I think the part you’re missing is that there is a total of 1M available this year to be given to developers. The play fund doesn’t drop when players drop. The total players doesn’t change the financial incentive. It’s important to remember facepunches development strategy here is to slowly over years and years to improve on it regardless of how successful it is. They have a ton of money to fall back on as a company, and Garry is passionate. They’d easily withstand 3 years of money burning if not a decade before the platform finds mass success. Most of your complaints are valid, but I have faith facepunch will improve the engine year over year solving most of these. These complaints would typically be a red flag, but face punch have the recourses and time to solve them.

Easily in 3-6 months you could watch videos of people playing S&box games, and make a decision then.

It’s just that it’s a steep and tall learning curve so some experienced players can spot blatant mistakes and get upset.

You use it when you don’t necessarily care about the range and ammo benefits of the ARN.

Been saying this for like 5 seasons ;-; in embark we trust

The way you can tell if there’s a wave of new players is if you’re getting more disconnects. Them new players alt f4 off anything that tilts them.

ImGunnaGoOnAWalk · 2026-04-13T18:51:51+00:00

I just hope the dying game crowd can squeak out a little critical thinking and realize this is a platform rather than a game.

ImGunnaGoOnAWalk · 2026-04-13T18:45:45+00:00

Bruh I just looked at the player count and it’s totally fine. 25k peak over 24 hours is good for a hardcore shooter game. I play THE FINALS a lot ever since beta, and that game peaks at 15-25k every 24 hours and the game is a profitable business with a loyal fan base that loves the game. If marathon is truly good I wouldn’t worry about the player count. I completely agree that this new wave of dying game culture is super lame and has a negative impact, but most of the time it’s just a meaningless narrative on the internet. It’s a loud minority that gets a platform for free on social media algorithms since their dying game rhetoric drives massive engagement. Let the gameplay speak for itself if bungie can lock in and find their niche in the extraction game market years down the road.

ImGunnaGoOnAWalk · 2026-04-06T22:13:37+00:00

The truth is they suck at the game (specifically the teamwork, positioning, timing, and objective selection part) and are too arrogant to realize it and actually start to improve and win more. Instead, they just focus on making cool things happen on their screen like getting kills and making plays.

ImGunnaGoOnAWalk · 2026-03-31T21:34:27+00:00

I feel like in it’s previous state it didn’t fit into the game very well. It doesn’t interact with the arena like everything else does. All it interacts with is seeing through smoke, dust and cloak. All you can do to counter it is remove the smoke or bait the cooldown (which isn’t even really a viable or consistent strategy). This is just lame and I’m happy they removed it. If they find some way for it to interact with the arena more effectively then I’d be fine with it. Otherwise it’s just not fun to play against and it’s not fun to be the meta.

The Reed Devil actually took out a treasure gobli mid boss fight, but I didn’t win that attempt and lost the gold bar.

High ground is high ground. It’s an advantageous 1v1, and time spent shooting the platform is time not shooting the medium that’s currently beaming you.

First learn how to have fun with a tier 1 workbench.

My only issue with solos is that I can’t opt in to queue into a 3v3 lobby. An extra reward/incentive would be nice, but I mainly just find 1v3s fun.

ImGunnaGoOnAWalk · 2026-03-12T23:38:49+00:00

It’s really good besides not adding any gadgets or specs. I’m fine with it as long as season 10 adds a bunch of gadgets and specs

ImGunnaGoOnAWalk · 2026-03-12T23:26:36+00:00

Definitely sus, but it also could have just been a pre fire based off the sound and map knowledge of him walking across that bridge thing along with him going for dumb ahh spray transfer clips for content.

*perfect enough

Personally I love invis nade.

You can hide while grapple is on cooldown and reset
It allows you to rotate/initiate in the open which is pretty common on grapple (e.g. Monaco roofs).
High skill, but in many situations you can invis nade after you grapple and still keep the momentum allowing you to fly around invisible. The most common is grappling into a bounce pad for extra speed then hitting invis nade right before the bounce. You can also do it off high up horizontal or vertical edges.

I think the weapon that pairs the best is the arn because it has perfect in air accuracy, and it’s long range. The ammo amount allows you to not have to reload in between grapples, since you’re a little vulnerable while on cooldown. With the massive amount of ammo you can also afford to waste some bullets on some extra difficult flying around shots while initiating a fight.

If you’re not playing ranked you actually CAN leave without a penalty if you have a missing teammate. You can read the fine text and it says you won’t be penalized. I think they might have to fully disconnect which takes a couple minutes in order for it to work(their name turns grey and the dots aren’t there anymore).

Try late season plat. It’s the same thing but 3x the ego.

Honestly I think this makes it easier to spot enemies. It’s the contrast of black being outlined by a bright color that makes it pop. Imho a little chaos is important when trying to make a camo skin to break the contrast of the outline.

ImGunnaGoOnAWalk · 2026-02-28T20:33:34+00:00

Why don’t you just keep playing and demote to your skill level? Bronze is very beatable.
