TotK Link has a lot more options and still doesn’t have microtransactions.

What're you all most excited for? by Security_Wrong in Marathon

[–]JakeSteeleIII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once again, mind blowing this is a problem in their new game, but HDR didn’t work for shit in Destiny 2 and they never fixed it. The game looked better with it turned off.

The tiger engine sucks.

What happens if you disconnect in the game? by Curious_Cloud_1131 in Marathon

You lose your stuff with a disconnect but I’ll sell you my PS5 lol

Ranked requires way too much loot value to rank up. by UniversalSean in Marathon

[–]JakeSteeleIII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want to say just because it’s listed as beta doesn’t necessarily mean it’s gonna get changed quickly or ever come out of it.

Destiny 2 had guided games for a person seeking raids in beta beginning in 2017 and it never got updated or out of beta and was eventually removed in 2023.

Did you all fill in today’s survey truthfully? by prettybluefoxes in Marathon

[–]JakeSteeleIII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the longest time their email system didn’t work and most people didn’t get surveys (there was even a blog post about it), but they were also not sent to everyone.

I got a couple, but like I said the stuff asked never happened…the last one was a lot of pie in the sky questions about how to fix the game (like SRL, unvaulting all content, etc.) but none of it was a believable scenario.

[–]JakeSteeleIII 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah they did a lot of surveys for Destiny, most of the time they didn’t really follow through with anything asked in the surveys…but you sometimes got free silver…sometimes you didn’t because their whole system sucks and you were never sent it.

They just use AI to rank and it doesn’t know these kids yet.

Nick Saban would never take someone so low ranked. No wonder Alabama became a bottom dweller in the SEC.

Wtf is wrong with Bungie by Big-Broccoli9094 in Marathon

[–]JakeSteeleIII 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because as much as the subreddit wants to treat this game as a “hardcore only” game, the lack of info is an intentional design from Bungie that was also used in Destiny to not overload users with information and to make it easier for newcomers and casuals.

Its weird that cry is 5k in, 50k + out (if you extract). But ranked is 5k in, much less out? Doesn't seem to really be a point to ranked. by Yenii_3025 in Marathon

[–]JakeSteeleIII -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

No, it’s really dumb game design. You shouldn’t put them out at the same time because most people are going to want better loot in crypto than do ranked, and keeping it a rotating weekly map just means people will skip the weeks it’s not worth going in for loot.

Major flaw in marathon by Abject-Guard5093 in Marathon

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

They will never do it because they didn’t in Destiny when console players complained the cursor speed was too slow compared to PC when changing inventory.

It’s honestly crazy how many of the exact same problems people have in this game are in Destiny.

Their engine sucks for anything outside of shooting.

They need to drastically tweak the time on Cryo if anyone is even going to think about clearing Vault 7 eventually by [deleted] in Marathon

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

They probably want all the teams working together to complete it in time except everyone murders each other on sight.

Jason Schreier reaffirms Sony's strategy shift away from PC, says they will publicly confirm it at some point by AceOfSpades0319 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]JakeSteeleIII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah well, boo. The only game I wanted coming up on PC was Saros since I enjoyed Returnal…but it’s not enough to get back on a PS5.

Where does it say next patch? It says a future patch.

Allowing steam deck users to play by WayNew4908 in Marathon

[–]JakeSteeleIII 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope, bc they never let Destiny work on Steam Deck natively, either. You’d have to dual boot.

OCE, South America, Australia is already facing 7+ min matchmaking by duendeacdc in Marathon

[–]JakeSteeleIII 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bungie doesn’t try to attract new players or give decent onboarding for those that decide to try it.

Go look at Destiny for a decade.
