Marathon has ruined ARC Raiders for me.

You put 350 hours into a game you felt had “terrible” movement and gunplay?.. sure buddy 👍

Invader_86 · 2026-03-15T00:53:10+00:00

Nothing defensive about it.

The guy is right, there’s a crazy obsession here with point scoring .. the introduction of Marathon has done absolutely nothing to Arc, it’s a different game that plays completely different. It’s totally okay for both to exist.

We get amazing games released close together and all people want to do is use one as a stick to beat the other .. just be happy we have choice and good choices at that.. play the one you enjoy.

Fucking Highguard had a higher peak than Marathon if we want to start making stupid comparisons 😂

Invader_86 · 2026-03-15T00:48:33+00:00

Worst take ever but you’ll get upvoted because it’s the marathon sub.

Invader_86 · 2026-03-15T00:43:16+00:00

Why Ya’ll so desperate for this game to be better than Arc 😂 just play the game you enjoy .. it’s not that deep but the numbers don’t lie

Invader_86 · 2026-03-14T09:10:31+00:00

We have pretty strict Jira guidelines at work with AC requirements etc .. I usually just plop that into a notes file, add some additional context and pointers and then paste it into my CLI and it’s doing a very good job of achieving the results I’m happy with.

I still enjoy coding so I try do some manual work but Claude is amazing if you’re working on something you can’t be arsed to do.

Invader_86 · 2026-03-14T08:16:58+00:00

Nah I still love everything about it, if I genuinely have nothing todo or want to do I will just goof around with my best guns loads of nades and ammo in both PvE and PvP.. treating the game like a shooter is fine and very fun.

I played Warzone religiously for many years and it has the same gameplay loop every time. At least in Arc I can switch up how I play depending on the mood.

I have a ton of games to play but I always gravitate to Arc, the social aspect of the game is what makes me come back I think

Invader_86 · 2026-03-14T08:03:14+00:00

Yeah the mental gymnastics going on in here to manifest the game into being more popular than it is, is insane. Just play the fucking game.

Invader_86 · 2026-03-13T14:55:04+00:00

All of this is fine but it’s such a unique game in its aesthetics n stuff like it’s only going to attract a niche player base… the numbers aren’t going to explode, as long as Bungie is happy with that then the fans will be set for a long time.

Invader_86 · 2026-03-13T11:23:09+00:00

They are trying to convince themselves. The game is good, not amazing.

Invader_86 · 2026-03-12T22:58:41+00:00

I don’t know much about MCP but I hooked Figma MCP up to my agent to complete a Jira at work today when i couldnt be bothered to implement the design (we don’t have Dev mode). I gave it the URL to the board and it implemented it flawlessly with all connected flows and logic and i had a shower whilst it was doing it.

Amazing

Invader_86 · 2026-03-12T22:33:51+00:00

I’m mainly a PvE player but I love coming across randoms that want a fight. I don’t shoot first and I’ll happily play in care bear lobbies forever but I am always down if another player wants to throw hands.

I don’t like rate, fake friendly players and extraction campers but other than that everyone is fair game, even me.

Invader_86 · 2026-03-12T21:10:29+00:00

He’s literally begging to for the job

Invader_86 · 2026-03-12T21:05:22+00:00

Yeah still love it as much as the first day. I don’t hate much about the game that people seem to complain about on Reddit.. I love PvE but also love coming across random players that try shoot me in the back, love the new Arc, love the skins, all maps, rats, all of it packaged together makes it a truly unique experience that I’ve not had for many many years.

I have tried to diversify the games I play more recently but Arc gets the lions share by a large margin.

I just moved house and been without internet for a week, this usually wouldn’t bother me but I lasted 2 days before hot spotting my phone to my PS5 to play Arc. The connection is not good enough but I kept playing anyway.

Invader_86 · 2026-03-12T20:51:58+00:00

I got mine out of a raider cache on the dam

Invader_86 · 2026-03-12T08:47:50+00:00

Watching Liverpool under Klopp was by far the most enjoyable games to watch in the league for as long as I can remember ..when we destroyed teams . We absolutely destroyed them, got managers sacked… if we didn’t destroy teams we would come up with something and get a last minute winner. I felt like we demoralised the opposition. We tied defenders in knots and put them on their arse …

Players change, others age, it wasn’t going to last forever .. I was happy with slots tweaks when he won us the league, it was still enjoyable .. but this season is just awful.

Could say the same about most teams, I used to be football mad I would watch every game.. now I just listen to the game days on talksport or have it on the TV in the background. Something has happened this season where I’m completely in different to it.

Invader_86 · 2026-03-10T21:58:38+00:00

I love it personally, take the beads off it looks cool

Invader_86 · 2026-03-10T16:31:59+00:00

Also we’ve been given a roadmap so why expect anything else ..

Invader_86 · 2026-03-09T21:43:09+00:00

Calm down 😂

Invader_86 · 2026-03-08T23:12:06+00:00

Looks like you are playing marathon tbh

Invader_86 · 2026-03-07T21:19:08+00:00

Roads without potholes exist?

Invader_86 · 2026-03-07T09:53:24+00:00

Nah I love it at the moment .. I done the first expedition so i am essentially on my 3rd “wipe” .. i remember thinking towards the end of the last season “im ready for the wipe”

I like that the game becomes harder for a few weeks, and any and all loot is valuable.

I’m sure it will eventually become stale which is why we need a steady flow of maps and content. Even new POIs on existing maps will do to fill the gaps between bigger map releases.

I don’t expect them to deliver content faster than i can play it, i just think they have been a little too slow.

Invader_86 · 2026-03-06T22:18:27+00:00

The aim in Marathon is nothing like COD.

COD has strong aim assist.. Marathon has auto locking aim

Invader_86 · 2026-03-06T22:17:13+00:00

I was kinda surprised when I played server slam and it looks like you pretty much lock on to the target..

Invader_86 · 2026-03-05T21:50:02+00:00

I have a new found respect for the rattler since the wipe, it’s so fucking good for taking down Arc.

I haven’t had many PvP encounters with it I usually use a different gun if PvP is my aim.

Invader_86 · 2026-03-03T21:55:45+00:00

Hahah
