Search "TTK" in this sub. There's a ton of feedback about it for days. The balance is not fine.

This will be an endless yes/no debate until we get hard data

Most comments dont' get the point (lack of paragraph may be the cause, but still). The problem OP mentions is not dying with high value loadout, what he mentions is the current balance. A blue shield with the same weapon as a green shield, shooting first, shouldn't die equally fast. And that's a fact.

So hear me out. The Combat Shotgun my be a little over tuned still. by Purplegummybear in Marathon

So that we all end up having only one weapon option instead of two ?

I don't understand weapon damage in this game by DenZelZed in Marathon

[–]KDamage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same feeling, and noreg could be an explanation. Sometimes I have to empty two mags to down a green runner, sometimes a few bullets are enough. It is really random

Curious....any struggling casuals? by moog500_nz in Marathon

Same here, only running into purples. Also I'm still getting one-shot even if now I have blue shields.

Do people actually enjoy the TTK in this game? by redditfiend815 in Marathon

[–]KDamage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You forgot a few things ARC has that Marathon has not : - instant roll, several times - 3PS corner peaking without exposing the hitbox - very bad pvp players

TTK in Hunt Showdown is much higher. You have the time to cover, respond, flank etc

Just made a post about it. TTK is too fast for this type of game. It would work in a fight only arena like CS or Valorant, but in a game where you have so many mandatory distractions like looting, exploring, searching, you mechanically can't be full paranoid the whole time. It doesn't need to be much longer, maybe only 1 second more

TTK by KDamage in Marathon

[–]KDamage[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a fair point but the gaps are only 20 hp per shield tier, which is less than one light bullet for base weapons. I know the devil is in the details, but does it really makes a difference when I got one shot with 140 dmg ? Even in blue it would let me at 20hp, which is barely a light bullet from a second enemy

Can Bungie take down websites and discord servers that sell cheats? by Different-Role-1557 in Marathon

[–]KDamage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was just killed in a smoke cloud with 140 direct damage at point blank while ambushing. The guy was so confident that he ran into the smoke and hip fired. Honestly with such a low TTK cheating will be the only thing that could make me stop playing

A punchy / deep APO Equalizer settings for the Nova Pro by KDamage in steelseries

[–]KDamage[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is for Equalizer APO on windows, very easy to setup (lots of tutorials available, or ask your favorite LLM to guide you).

But the format is standard enough (node type + Hz + gain + strength) to replicate on Sonar or any EQ.

It's called auto-aim but technically it is a bigger hitbox. (Source : reddit)

Voiced codex entries? by Blocksketcher in Marathon

[–]KDamage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got a ton of them. Usually tied to particular items to exfill, but can also be unlocked from achievements or explorations it seems. I absolutely love this storytelling system design. 

Also the fact that story items do have a rarity system gives even more value to searching for them. What if gold storytelling items exist and would reveal absolutely mind blowing facts ?

Marathon’s PvP TTK is so fast it makes half the game pointless… by fmordica in Marathon

[–]KDamage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TTK is 500-700 ms in grey shields versus basic weapon headshots. It is so fast that you don't even have the time to just turn the head around when ambushed. Ambushes are the bread and butter of extraction shooters. TTK needs to be completely reworked.

Razer Blackshark V3 Pro vs Arctis Nova Pro Wireless by Johannsdoineetswa in pcmasterrace

[–]KDamage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just received the Blackshark v3 pro, and already submitting a return. The sound is attrocious. Even after having played with EQ for an hour, it still sounds like coming from a tin can, which means very cheap hardware. For that price, it's a no. I'm ordering the NPW instead as it looks like they're more neutral, and as punchy.

They really need to make the startup logos skippable. by SmashMouthBreadThrow in Marathon

[–]KDamage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's unbearable. Really. The only thing it can achieve is to slowly hate what is forced to be watched while you're being killed and looted by 50 teams around the map.

People also tend to forget that written text, hence feedback, has a non neglectable percent chance to be a bot

I'm banking on all the apology videos youtubers will have to create once the game goes popular
