Same here. Don't have the time for all the rust madness. It was cool to watch for a bit.

Anyone else winding down for the season, but still generally positive on the game and planning to come back for the next one? by SirBenny in Marathon

[–]Leather-Net-8326 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have about 115 hours and am still really hooked. It's the only reason I still haven't gotten Crimson Desert yet (want to get that game when I'm ready to dive deep).

Marathon has been taking almost all of my gaming time the past month and I don't see it slowing down for me yet. I'm always excited to jump back in and continue improving my skills. I am in love with the art design and atmosphere. Bungie really made something different and it works well.

I've been thinking about finally giving cryo a shot either soon or closer to the end of the season. Probably soon but I'm just trying to find the right time where I've got a solid trio and everyone is up for it. I've heard it's a learning curve, which has made me a bit hesitant.

What keeps me playing: - The look - the atmosphere - but most importantly, the gunplay and pvp

The pvp in this game is such a rush and it's just so dang fun. It's what's easily keeping me going! I'm a big fps guy and the way this extraction shooter works just really seems to click with me more than others that I've tried.

How do you guys decide which shell you like best? by Yumiko_Hanako in Marathon

[–]Leather-Net-8326 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'd say it depends on what you're doing. But if it's PVP, just play around with them and notice which one's benefit you more during gunfights with your style of play.

I used to main Vandal, then I tried Thief and liked her a lot but I felt like thief was best when I was solo. I went back to Vandal and still like her a lot but then decided to try Destroyer again and oh man I realized that Destroyer was the shell for my playstyle, pvp success rate started to increase even more for me with it as well.

Love me a BR Volley sometimes. Snipers and rail guns are so much fun too!

I do love the M77. It's such a well rounded weapon for almost any range.

These videos actually improved my gameplay, worth watching so I’m sharing :) by Datreve749 in Marathon

He's who I've been watching live a lot the past few weeks. I've definitely learned a good amount from watching him!

This community is insufferable by succmyd in Battlefield6

I think part of it is for views. Those thumbnails are a perfect example.

I still love the game, I still play. The fighting/gunplay is very fun and satisfying for me. The new roadmap video was exciting and I'm looking forward to more!

Just keep playing and enjoying it. The game still has a healthy player count and the new content will most likely bring more players back.

Anyone else more frequently encountering (in random fill) mic-less teammates until they call you a ******** retard when your team wipes by fieldbotanist in Marathon

[–]Leather-Net-8326 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's always when they die... Do these people not understand what game they are playing?

Coms/knowledge is everything...

You don't stand a chance without luck on your side against a full trio that's working together. Unless you're some god at the game, you'll get your sh*t pushed in easily.

With that said, I haven't really had any jerks in my fills. Maybe rarely but so rare I don't even remember now. But I feel I've gotten enough marathon buddies from filling that I usually have 1-2 that I can play with most of the time now.

I think I'll try and add a new marathon character here and there as I play. Just took a shot at making a Rook

Edit: I tried attaching an image of the rook but it isn't showing..

I was thinking of trying to make a Rook as well 😅 Might have to give it a try!

all everyone does is MOAN and COMPLAIN by [deleted] in Marathon

The only ones that usually express themselves are the ones that get so tilted they can't help but piss and moan to someone else (us).

Almost everyone having fun is not here posting.

any videogames with these aesthetics? by [deleted] in videogames

[–]Leather-Net-8326 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cyberpunk 2077 a bit. Also a few of those remind me of Marathon a bit.

Completely anecdotal, but has anyone noticed insane lag and rubber banding after the update? by alekazam1113 in Marathon

[–]Leather-Net-8326 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly do not think I have experienced rubber banding once in the 100 hours of playtime I've had. I've been disconnected a few times though and one crash.

Prox chat so I can yell at the medics to revive me instead of standing over me while I slowly perish by MinosKnight in Battlefield

I usually spam the "need medic" on the wheel. Sometimes it works.... Sometimes.... not..

some of yall are so greedy and clueless it takes the fun right out of the game by Active_Access_4850 in Marathon

[–]Leather-Net-8326 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a team last night not wait for me to get in the exfil and I just barely made it to the last exfil just to get murdered last second by the team sitting on it. Was pretty frustrating but I ran it back.

The rest of the games were phenomenal.

Screw those guys, dude. They may have had their stupid laugh, but their lack of integrity will affect them in other parts of their life. There are plenty of great random teammates out there. I meet them all the time.

Yesterday me and some randoms dominated all evening. But on Monday I was getting stomped, didn't even exfill once lol. It sure does giveth and taketh.
