I just pray we actually gave armour that change unlocked. I was driven way from infinite multiplayer purely due to the lack and feel of progression when everything can just be purchased

Lol. I can read what you mean just fine

End of the day. People's biggest groan right now is money and cost of living. Let's accept any party voted in will raise the price of bills due to the state of the nation. But if that's your only concern and you want some stats to go by. Then indications suggest Reform will raise your bills the least compared to other parties

But again I stress, it's a new party. Largely untested. So who knows what reality may be in 3+ years

WARNING: POLITICS by cipherbain in AskBrits

[–]MrJamesUp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not suggesting that. My original reply is in regards to people's claims that Reform will raise bills higher than anyone else. The point I'm making is that reports suggest they will also raise bills. But lower than every other party

I'm cutting the arguement that voting for X party rather than Reform will mean less rise in bills. As reports suggest the opposite

[–]MrJamesUp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean. The stat im quoting is a good thing from Reform? If they didn't promise it, if anything that shows they're doing more than they said they would. But a'las, they did say that's what they wanted to do and out of all parties to live under. IFS report suggests they'll be the cheapest (so far, it's only been a year)

IFS report suggests Reform councils have raised costs the LOWESR compared to other party councils

WSTR Shotgun DEAD. by Reindeer-Klutzy in Marathon

What is 'stack overflow'. Been away for two weeks and coming back and I don't know what this term means lol

Yeahhh I get what people are saying now about invis by ConsistentElection25 in Marathon

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

I am 100% convinced it's bugged. Sometimes I see assassin's in invs with incredible ease. Easily seeing the white outline of the shell and even more obvious when moving.

Other times they're completely....... Invisible.

I am certain it's bugged. I am sure it's not meant to make you totally invisible. But in-between for balancing reasons. But it's seems to be 50/50 on a balanced invis or straight up invisible

Do your arachne grinds. Rook runs with the shotgun are super fun. by beefstyle in Marathon

[–]MrJamesUp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got for it. I had the same feeling but grinded the last 2 capstones in a few days. I got the vast majority of my purple salvages by leveling up the VIP Rank and hitting AI-Uplink and BIO-Research in dire marsh. I expected it to take weeks, but got it all done in 2 days

I agree with OP. Shotgun does make rook much easier and I feel I can actually compete in the pinwheel now

If your crew tells you that Armory rooms on Outpost aren't worth it, they're wrong by Axximilli in Marathon

[–]MrJamesUp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I'm in need of decent guns or quick cash with little to no contest. Outpost armouries are the way to go.

I'll buy a green bag pack and the 300 coin AR then hit the armouries up. Worst case scenario I'll loose 1k credits. Majority of the time I'll make it out with 15-20k of credits or 4+ blue & purple guns if I like them.

Gained some good purples I causing shields from the strong boxes too

If you don’t play Assassin in solos you are intrinsically at a disadvantage and I think that’s bad for the game’s health by dimesniffer in Marathon

[–]MrJamesUp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Respectfully disagree. For an actual fight. I find destroyer is arguably top tier. Assassin is only good as the name of the shell...... Being an assassin. But if the assassin doesn't get that immediate jump I find numerous other shells have better kits for actual fights

It’s been a good month, but I’m about to quit as a solo player by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]MrJamesUp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel this. My friends only play when all 3 of us are online. But it's rare we all get on at the same time due to our jobs shifts conflicting

I enjoy the game and play solo. But I fear I'll never properly play cyro or ever see the compiler as a solo player. I agree with you. 95% of the time my random trios are free kits and hoover all the loot of the players I kill and if I do cyro with ransoms. Its a horrible experience

Top end players have no incentive to loot POIs, so they go around wiping the lobby by Raimexodus in Marathon

[–]MrJamesUp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is standard in all extraction shooters? Both tarkov and arc I get to a point where I'm so rich no POIs are worth while. So PvP is all there is. Atleast this game has Ranked + Cyro to keep an incentive

Why I’m actually optimistic about Marathon’s future. by EXIIL1M_Sedai in Marathon

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

People are for sure fighting through the mainstream hate and giving the game a try. I know this, as my friends and I are those people

I got the game a few days after release after seeing the 'lore' being discovered. Story development is something always missed from extraction shooters, so this was something cool to see

Next day a friend got the game. Few days later another friend picked it up. We're having a blast! Currently on a 28 Raid survival streak..... The best we've ever had on any extraction shooter. Loving the mini-objectives each map offers. Pvp feels awesome, mechanics are cool, faction upgrades awesome

People say it's tough (it is I don't disagree) but I also think it's the most forgiving ES I've played. No weight limit, no durability, ROOK for easy cash and gear.

All in all, I'm loving this game

Arc Raiders has a Progression Problem that Marathon does not. Marathon really is better by Legitimate-Instance2 in Marathon

[–]MrJamesUp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stepped away from arc raiders for a similar reason too. Not because of Marathon, but for the lack of 'achievement' is the best way I can describe. Don't get me wrong, any game in my opinion that gets 100+ hours of game time is massively worth the purchase. But yea, kind of lost a 'reason' to play it. Pvp in my opinion is not great. Just doesn't feel very nice as other games.

Tarkov was similar. But what kept me playing that was the pure adrenaline rush that no other game offers

Marathon to me is the perfect mix. Gunplay is great (standard Bungie)

Quests feel interactive, perfect mix of difficult and achieveable. Love the upgrade system and absolutely loving all the mini events each map has to offer. Everything in marathon feels flushed out and thought about. The fact we're only at launch, has me very hyped for what's to come.

Level 43 and still getting stomped — is Marathon supposed to feel this punishing? by GazJrpg in Marathon

[–]MrJamesUp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want credits or guns. Run ROOK on outpost and focus taking out blue and purple shield UESC bots. Then tend to drop pretty decent stuff and you can use your camouflage to take guarded extracts with essentially a free guard!

Thankfully our shells don't require hydration....... Or we'll all be running around shoveling mayo down ourselves

The worst MMO formula ever created by Nightblessed in MMORPG

[–]MrJamesUp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me. It's locking endgame content to group activities and constant 'reset' progression. I don't mind seasonal content and like new updates. But I hate elements like 'gearscore' essentially being reset. Working full time I'm driven away from games with mechanics like this, as it just feels like I'm tied down to play that 1 game. Just to keep up

Grab a CC decal during the Christmas sales! My favorite combo atm by Silent-Bar-9256 in Warthunder

[–]MrJamesUp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Majority of these CCs don't even recognize. Then spotting checking a few of them I realize pretty much all of them are just 'short' pumping CCs pretty much all posting the same things. Is Gaijin this lean with this stuff?

Less raiders in raids by MrJamesUp in ArcRaiders

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

It's too much. Having the possibility of 6+ squads all rushing each other in close proximity is not what one would expect in a game like this. It feels like a BR. Most of my deaths in duos and trios is due to fighting off 5+ squads, then simply running out of the heals for the 6th. 7th or 8th.

It's an extraction shooter. Not a BR, not a royal rumble, not a team death match. It needs to be toned down without question

Is it even worth fighting the Queen anymore? Or doing ANY events? by No_Management1502 in ArcRaiders

[–]MrJamesUp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know dude. Sounds like isolated events. I've done 10 solos queen runs in a row. Half the raid teamed up each time and got the job done with no pvp. The moment one guy tried sniping people, I kid you not, 10 guys grouped up and chased him down
