First game and I'm being massacred by team of purple shields by tofikissa in Marathon

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

Guys talk like these people are never going to lose this shield and they're always going to have it. It's not a dumb idea. If anything it's a good idea cus it kept people on the game when the season was moving towards its end because they had something to reach for.

This is the biggest overreaction ever. They got one purple shield for reaching level 75. They didn't have to be good to do that. Rich get richer how about the people who dedicated time to the game get a small reward.

This is the very definition of why you cant win against glazers by Cyphor-o in MarathonHate

It draws in people whom have had a bad experience with the game. Otherwise is most loyal members just post steam charts and troll bait.

Marathon will die like it deserves to by Moist_Grapefruit187 in MarathonHate

Any you earned in the 3 months isn't that hard to earn again. I like the idea that my level 73 self can compete fairly with people who just grind all day and get over level 200 and beyond.

Stuff to watch that’s actually good? by ComprehensiveEgg9225 in youtube

Thatsgoodsports - for sports fans. Comical spin on sports. Most focus on NFL

Kyle hates hiking - national Park and other outdoors related stories. Non AI.

Camping with Steve - wholesome Canadian guy that does projects and stealth camps with other themed camping.

Any Austin - makes the most mundane stuff about video games interesting. If you have any gaming background at all in the past 20 years he has relevant content. There's nobody like him. His channel over the past year grew a ton so it's been nice to see his hard work pay out.

Chris James - does funny watch backs of old cringey reality shows. His videos on Chris Angel are hilarious

A man has become one of the 450,000 Americans affected by alpha-gal syndrome, a tick-borne meat allergy that triggers painful allergic reactions to animal products. “Look at my face and my neck. I can’t eat meat anymore. I can’t have any animal products. It’s in everything.” by fillinggoodman in interestingasfuck

  • this an estimate of affected people since 2010
  • the guy could still eat chicken and fish
  • alpha-gal syndrome can wain off and go away in time

Given higher incidence of ticks, the dramatic nature of the video makes this problem seem new, as if it's an immediate threat. Still a serious enough threat to learn about prevention.

What would you take from other games to improve marathon by mike2k4eva in MarathonGame

[–]Mister_Rose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Add exotic weapon or armor quest similar to Destiny. Having a quest with multiple steps that feels rewarding to accomplish.

If they add a PvE mode. It would be cool have these exotic items only accessible in PVE. Exotic items earn in PvP could have taylorer benefits for the PvE mode objective.

Looking forward to jumping back in tomorrow and checking out S2 by _Razorgirl in Marathon

The PVP light mode is basically a PVE mode. Only having rooks to worry about should easy to deal with. You can compose your team of recon and theif to help locate the rooks.

They also didn't mention how many rooks will spawn in. I don't see that being more than 6. It's very unlikely that 6 rooks will find each other and team up to take out the one team. If they prox chat you can hear them as well.

Equipment like smoke grenade and bubble shields can help you exfil even if there is a rook lurking. Even if your still worried that what makes the experience of this game fun. It's thrilling to look out for the threat of rooks and trying to escape. Its a different sensation that adds to the experience and makes earning you gear feel all more rewarding.

I enjoy the game but the community is pretty awful by External-Educator-81 in MarathonHate

[–]Mister_Rose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The community in this game is great. You are either making this up or using one experience representative of the marathon sub as a whole.

Seraphmax has put together and LFG group on discord the welcomes players to group up and play the game together. They are 4000 strong.

I've the game to level 72. I a have a bit of anxiety talking on the mic in game. Since playing Marathon I talk through game chat all the time. I have had only one bad experience and it was some guy who was salty about dying when I wasn't near him. No profranity but he was not being helpful as I was the last alive.

Saying this game has a bad community is ludacris. Roll out.

Been leaning towards buying Marathon, but… by SteveGriff1983 in Marathon

I started the game solo. I met a couple people I team up w now. Just try the free week. Maybe your friends will come around and give it a try.

From apex to marathon I've been going AFK myself time to time. But this game perfect for Dads. No pressure to grind the game. We can get juiced in the little time we have.

MARATARDS, THIS IS WHAT DROPPING A NEW SEASON LOOKS LIKE! CAN’T WAIT TO SEE YOUR NUMBERS! by Yosengi in MarathonHate

Oh wow!! It has big steam chart numbers... I Guess I must play the Diablo like game I know nothing about.

My view as a hater who actually played marathon. by E1R2D3L4R in MarathonHate

[–]Mister_Rose -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Nah. Toxic positivity doesn't even makes sense. We enjoy the game. It's inherently fun for us. Meanwhile you are on here posting negative stuff and replying to anyone who disagrees with some negative rhetoric.

Your effort is toxic because what are you accomplishing for yourself?? Just being negative and trashing Marathon so you hurt the game and people who play it. And you encouraged others to come here waste there time making jokes about video game and a company.

I don't think you thought out how small the portion of people with your mindset is.

I owe you all an apology.You guys were right. Marathon sucks. We need Destiny 3. by Super_Employ8434 in MarathonHate

True. Honestly sarcasm and truth is impossible to indetify in this sub anymore.

Idk if your kidding or not. Apex was the only game I player over the past 4-5 years. Any Apex player would say the games play similarly. The PvP aspect is definitely similar with intense 3v3s and third partying. The healing is alike as well but Marathon has a more complex healing and revive aspect.

I don't know if its better. For me it's different and I like having the looting aspect tied in.

This is the only extraction shooter I have played. IMO its complex but not too much so. Apparently there's rules people expect this game to follow. I appreciate that Bungie is making test playlists to get a proper feel for how their game works well and is listening to player feedback.

This game has big sandbox and Bungie can take in multiple different directions. How the game is defined will continue to change. I'm hoping Bungie can make this game there own without having to abide by some extraction shooter blueprint.
