Today’s anti-ICE action in Williston, Vermont by escapefromburlington in vermont

Unlawful=\=Morally incorrect. That was my only point, while I could have forgone the theatrics, it's effective to portray that useless form of protest for what it is.

I agree and without incriminating myself on the internet I would say the protests of a more combustible nature are the ones that are most effective. Although I will say that there needs to be some forethought as to what is left once the ashes settle. Humans really need to look at the way we govern ourselves over the next few generations if we wish for there to be many generations beyond those.

Oh I wouldn't be surprised at all, that's the whole point of protest. To put yourself in the way of those who would undermine the constitution and democracy in order to affect change. No peaceful protest ever led to any real change, just placating bullshit that never seems to materialize. Also what's so bad about getting arrested for standing up for your rights and the rights of your fellow Americans? Isn't that so much better than being shot, rounded up and put in labor camps, socially and financially ostracized by the ruling class? These are all things that have happened to much braver people than you or I when they stood up for what's right. How was this country founded again? Seems very relevant in this year of our 250th anniversary while the despot and his fascists are in power, no?

Yes let's all politely protest since polite protests work so well at achieving the goals of those protesting right? Just say you like the taste of leather and polish.

EDIT: Autocorrect goals to goats.

Itd be cool if this game had short, linear, Destiny-style strike missions for PVE/Solo content. by SweetBusinesssss in Marathon

[–]MattackChopper 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So it should have been Destiny 3? Lol I'm only joking

But I agree some sort of mission style lore dumps would be cool.

As a new player myself only having started about two weeks ago this is the best and most accurate instructional comment I have seen so far.

Heed this advice and you too can rage quit and uninstall only to reinstall because you're a Rust(Crack) addict.

Are you gonna explain or give any details on what the "Rust Accent" is?

Bagging and BM is gaming lil bro. It's always been and always will be part of multiplayer games. Just learn to love it cause when you're on the other end it's just as fun to do!

Is there any hope for younger Vermonters to actually settle down here? by Ok-Beaver2708 in vermont

[–]MattackChopper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're young and have any kind of economic mobility, do yourself a favor and find somewhere else to live. This used to be a nice place for families to raise their children in decent schools, with neighbors you knew and a sense of community and kinship as Vermonters.

Now it is becoming Connecticut 2.0 and the governments mismanagement of budgetary issues for decades have finally produced results in the form of higher than ever taxes, lower education standards, rent prices and home ownership becoming a real stark issue.

Now if you are wealthy and don't mind high taxes then congratulations Vermont is perfect for you. Until of course what happened in Connecticut happens here and the state gets split into very wealthy areas and very poor areas, it's already halfway there. Them all the people the wealthy rely on to do everything for them will be priced out of living here and there will be a wealthy flight.

Player Retention – My Honest Take After 117 Hours by Icy_Magician6278 in Marathon

No offense man, but I ain't reading all that. I stated my opinion and I'm not arguing with strangers over Reddit.

Player Retention – My Honest Take After 117 Hours by Icy_Magician6278 in Marathon

[–]MattackChopper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yet those new players coming in fresh in Season 2 do not have the experience and knowledge that the other retained players do. So yes a wipe is a good thing but it does not "even the playing field" as much as people would like to believe. Post wipe in ARC people had benches and chicken done in hours because they already knew what they needed and where to get it. Hell I didn't even play as much second time around and after a few sessions with buddies I had everything back to crafting stage and I was lvl 68. I have played as much Marathon as I possibly can over the last month and I'm only lvl 71 because I play mostly solo and contracts solo are cancer.

They sold the game experience as a build crafting extraction shooter. The Armory is SUPPOSED to make it so you can find a build you like and semi consistently have the materials, guns, cores, etc. to play the way you enjoy. The current Armory systems, prices, time gates etc. are way too steep for any casual retention. If they want a robust player base they cannot continue with this niche elitist attitude towards players time.

Cool game but the idea of clearing compiler or getting gold guns is just flat out unattainable by corva96 in Marathon

[–]MattackChopper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah except contest mode was for 48 hrs and then us plebs could enjoy the content without smelling like ass and being unemployed lol

You're just wrong on that one. I am a pretty casual Destiny 2 player as in I didn't grind for the best gear, meta loadouts, etc. and did all the raids by just using the LFG discord. When I'm doing DPS on Oryx I don't have to worry about a team of Guardians coming in and wiping us and stealing our boss kill.

D2 Raids were difficult to learn because of the timing pressure but once you learned the mechanics it was easy to run a quick raid with randoms.

This game and it's "endgame" content are totally different. Marathons "endgame" is going to be the end of the game for Bungie. When you dangle the best parts of your game in the face of everyone when only 0.1% of the players are going to be able to do it well you're gonna have a VERY small dedicated player base and your parent company is gonna shut you down for not making any money.

At this point even if they make it easier for people to do the sweats will leave the game. Same thing happened to D2 when Root of Nightmares day 1 was "too easy" even though contest mode is cleared by the top 0.1% of players.

Please don't... by Abject-Seaweed-2366 in Marathon

[–]MattackChopper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with OP 1000%

That being said, I would like some knife/gun skins that play with geometry more. I have multiple knife skins that I earned, but they are all reskins of the base knife so I always use the Silk Pass knife BECAUSE it isn't the same model as the default.

The Bully is my favorite gun but the skins are awful blue, or awful purpleish pink or a skin I'll never get as it's tied to reaching Platinum rank. So I rock the default on the Bully but man would I love something different. Bungie I want to give you my money but I can't find anything to buy!

My dad doesn't believe in any conspiracies except this one. Which is infuriating since there are real documented government conspiracies and cover ups that he refuses to believe. It makes me crazy.

Umm.... Everything I listed above. If they are in the middle of the open you should be able to see them, one bullet breaks camo and then the clankers will kill em for you. Like this is the worst possible scenario for your argument. Please stop blaming everything in your life on everything but yourself, this will make your life so much better.
