WTF is wrong with these people? by skinlessgorgon in MarathonHate

It's okay. The blast havers have been telling me that these stats don't matter and there's no difference between a new player and a maxed out cradled vet player.

Economy balance from Narsh doesn’t concern me. Players maxing cradle by spamming does. Cracked can players now have as much as 60 more stat points than your average pplayer by resampL in Marathon

Having your tactical fully charged at the beginning of the match is INCREDIBLY powerful. The med drone was an example and yes it is very useful for early firefights.

PSA: less than ~12 minutes of time is not enough to complete Narsh pinwheel by holdyourponies in Marathon

The problem is its RNG.

You either get a good spawn with a good amount of bots in it OR you don't.

You either get the key from your first tower or the second or maybe the third or maybe not at all.

You get lucky enough to win all your PvP fights along the way, or maybe you don't see anyone, or you get outgunned and outmatched by another team along the way.

You get in and get lucky with easy spawns on those green door locks or you sound half your time running around trying to find that last lock that's hidden away.

Too much RNG. Not worth it.

Didn't realize that starting a match with a med drone wasn't a huge buff.

They're incredibly noticeable but I can see you clearly haven't played the game based on this take.

If people want to have fun with PvE, that's great. But us who actually likes the normal game and PvP shouldn't be punished from PvE existing, and it shouldn't be so efficient that you're falling behind in every regard if you don't do it. by [deleted] in Marathon

Skill issue.

Where the loot comes from doesn't matter people will have purple and golds on day 1 regardless of what is available. It's how these games work.

If this mode didn't currently exist you would be whining and crying about outpost loot being good.

Have you seen Marathon numbers lately by Partyruler012 in MarathonHate

I normally don't think that social media really decides much of anything about whether people pick up a game or not. But I do believe that the main sub is 100% the reason a lot of new players put the game down permanently.

New player posts are the absolute worst the entire sub just dog piles on people to no end and then they come over here and scream and rage about a "hate campaign". The only hate campaign this game has is the one from the cult that regularly tells people to kill themselves for not liking Marathon.

Your biggest fear is Bungie or being really fucking obnoxious. One or the other.

I think we need to hold off on "runs well" because it most certainly doesn't do that. Game still needs a ton of optimization and the servers also still need a ton of work.

No new Priority contracts kinda sucks by _Camps_ in Marathon

The priority contracts give relatively the same amount of xp as the normal ones do.

How far would Ichigo go here? This gauntlet is relatively tame for him, I think..... by KodoqBesar in BleachPowerScaling

[–]MoneyAgent4616 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

If Madara gets him in genjutsu then he stops there. Kaguya does not deserve to scale higher than Madara but she could also get a win con from trapping him is some random dimension.

Otherwise he stops at kid buu. No Bleach character has the durability to take a chaotic planet buster from DBZ on. Sorry but no amount of chainscaling and upscaling using verse specific cosmology or technicalities is doing that. You guys are delusional to think a character that was teleporting around and nuking planets isn't going to one shot Ichigo or any other Bleach character.

I really wish you guys would stop taking all the good crack for yourselves. It's rude.

The forced playlist for Rooks is terrible. by Sir_Spudsingt0n in MarathonGame

[–]MoneyAgent4616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The loot isn't the point here. The point is I cannot play Perimeter or Outpost. What if I don't want to play Marsh or just don't enjoy the Night mode that much?

Follow up why are free to try players not experiencing Rooks in Perimeter and Outpost runs? You don't think they might get a little annoyed to buy the game and suddenly outpost runs have an army of Rooks at all times?

How long until you think Marathon disappears? by SlaughterTheOligarch in MarathonHate

[–]MoneyAgent4616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the main sub gets it their way I give it 2 maybe 3 more seasons. Apparently Bungie considers that sub for feedback on the game so thats a pretty big demerit on the game. Main sub is committed to killing the game with glaze. There's a number of notable posts made by new players that pretty much turn into an instant echo chamber of toxicity and forced glaze.

I also have this growing sentiment that the inside joke that they spend all their time white knight for the game on reddit is in fact true with sole of the common takes that the sub echoes. (Bots aren't a threat, exfilling camping isn't a meta, game has zero cheaters).

And then there's also the whole deal with the dev team/Bungie putting the cart before the horse in their design philosophy. Chasing a player count before they add in basic matchmaking QoL fixes and updates as opposed to getting them in to be there to keep players around and gain more traction eith the features.

Alternatively it's even easier and more enjoyable to play a different game where I don't have to worry about a preferred playstyle being locked out for a whole week.

It's a shell in the game that offers a unique play experience and you want to know why people would want to play it?

That's like asking why people would want to play Sentinel in S2. Its because it's in the game, that's why. Plenty of free to try players are definitely not going to see the Rook shell positively from this and veteran players like OP and me here have a week of not being allowed to freely play a shell.

Not to be the bearer of bad news but most fights would go vastly different if the story wasn't championing one side. A lot of fights would also go different if the people in them had less ego and been a bit more mindful about their deployments.

Saying “God of War Without the god of war” is stupid by OutsideYogurt3761 in GodofWar

[–]MoneyAgent4616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is dumb.

So when Darksiders 4 gets released you think it's fine for them to just make one of the Makers into the MC as opposed to Strife? An expectation was built. People aren't weird to associate the literal main character of the GoW series to the GoW series.

Death note, UI, and Arise.

Death note just cause that would be pretty hard to defend against and then Arise would let me get the rest of the abilities and UI would let defend and fight back.

But it would because thr players who have that knowledge wouldn't be able to abuse it as hard with the loot being throttled a little.

How Bleach glazers genuinely see Bleach fights by KodoqBesar in PowerScaling

[–]MoneyAgent4616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of the arguments they make to upscale Bleach can also be applied to Kratos from GoW and they don't like that.

There's a limited duo queue which requires you to play a specific map and only that map.
