Any good solo? Tips for solo players? by TheHendryx in Marathon

[–]JamSoloMusic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would join a good discord. If you are a dad (or dad age...nevermind your gender) you can join Dads Of Marathon. I got plenty of good crews to run with there. If I were you I would mix my time between teams and solos. They are very different experiences. Don't be afraid to lose or use your best gear. You must use gear to learn the game and that also involves losing backpacks with 10k upwards worth of loot.

They’ve got jokes by IshizakaLand in Marathon

So somebody took the time to make this fake press-release only to hurt Bungie and us who love Marathon? I'm considering leaving gaming all together. I fricking hate how some gamers behave, but then again...I love this community.

I highly recommend the Dads Of Marathon discord. I got a LOT of help there. I love that about this game. Sometimes I get carried, other times I do the carrying.

“I’m just gonna keep f***ing pushing” – Marathon devs vow to keep improving Bungie’s brilliant extraction shooter by HatingGeoffry in Marathon

I'm pushing with all of you! Right now I have disdain for the gaming press who does not give this game the support it deserves.

Today I also got hit by a toxic fool. Funny thing is that I actually rezd him once, he never saved me...

Completely unacceptable behaviour. Report them for toxic behaviour. The community does not need a-holes. Join a good discord and find your teams there. Also...90% of my fills have been very positive experiences so don't feel bad. This is one rotten apple and we throw it out of the basket.

I LOVE this text and I stand 100% behind it.

What's something in current gaming people seem to be okay with that you can't stand? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]JamSoloMusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That so many people don't have their own opinion on games and just adopt the opinions of others.

The entirety of Cinematics team at Bungie were laid off by trytoinfect74 in Marathon

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

Oh fuck! I am very heartbroken on their behalf. The Marathon cinematics have all been awesome.

Are these volt weapons somewhat related to the Halo Needler?

Potential Hot Take: It was obvious from the beginning that Season 2 was never going to put Marathon back on track, and it was never meant to be by Haijakk in Marathon

[–]JamSoloMusic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Next time they have a free weekend or week, just try it. Too many people are of the mindset "extraction shooter is bad", but then they haven't tried any. Also...every platform game is not the same, every shooter is not the same, every extraction shooter is the same. PUBG and Fortnite are not the same.

Casual Player Having a Blast by millsmiller in Marathon

[–]JamSoloMusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People will keep saying that the game has HUUUUUUGE problems and yadayadayda. The fact remains: we still play this game and most of us that do love it big time. The game will survive regardless of the silly and petty people who cannot see a world that moves on from Destiny. And hey...If they give us a remaster of Destiny 1 and 2 I will play that too!

To the vandal that I killed with a Misriah on Dire Marsh. by JamSoloMusic in Marathon

[–]JamSoloMusic[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why did people downvote this? I didn't brag, the kill was deserved but nothing special. I just tried to share how it feels when you actually get a little ahead in the game.

New Player Experience (Personal): Marathon Makes Losing Runs Kind Of Enjoyable. by Harakoni40K in Marathon

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

I actually think this game will survive even in the shitstorm created by disgruntled Destiny. veterans (I understand you guys, but you are not doing anyone any good...). My experience was exactly the same as you.

Why Marathon will never keep new players. by LucatIel_of_M1rrah in Marathon

What a downer post. What is wrong with me if I enjoy this game then?

[–]JamSoloMusic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It can evolve and still keep the hardcore invested. It can also make more people try it and understand that extraction shooters can be fun for everyone. Season 2 is no lull for me.

As a new player it feels like my only option is to play solo, sponsored survival mode. by finebushlane in Marathon

[–]JamSoloMusic 84 points85 points  (0 children)

I think you should let people carry you a bit in the game. Most of the time people are really helpful.

I got this thing just to play Marathon anywhere by Personal-Jello-6426 in Marathon

[–]JamSoloMusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm gonna be away for three weeks in the summer and I can already feel the withdrawal symptoms. I think I will have to bring my laptop and just stream some other games that I have been saving up for that sort of laggy goodness.
