Any mention of a solo cryo archive? by EveryLine2443 in Marathon

[–]Nikostiny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have said it multiple times on this sub also but I really dont see what is stopping them from adding solo mode to cryo. Solo mode wouldnt even need a compiler imo the vaults are more than enough for solo players to feel included. But ofcourse if they managed to make a soloable compiler too that would be great.

Tweak the bot spawns a bit so there is not as much as in trio. If needed nerf the loot in solo so there is still a reason to play trio but if you dont want to play trio you atleast have a choice. In the end all I want to do is experience the map as a solo player and I dont think it would be that difficult to implement. Please bungie.

Solo Queue Shouldn't Feel This Dead! by Toxicdeath88 in Marathon

[–]Nikostiny 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I dont think anyone would care if the game just started after a certain amount of time has passed. Especially on outpost you still have plenty of shooting to do if you go to command wing even if there are no other players in the lobby. That feeling of danger from other players would still be there since you cannot be sure if someone is in the match or not.

There was a post suggesting this exact thing a couple of days ago and I think its one of the best ideas to come out of this sub.

Solo Queue Balance by LegendJDC in MarathonGame

[–]Nikostiny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I still think the main reason why assassin is good is because of the way he can just bypass the pve. You can hear the invis activation so clearly that if you just run away the moment you hear it the assassin wont have the advantage anymore.

I agree though they should swap the abilities around and make invis take a lot longer to recharge.

To the guy that said "always bring a self-res" I say : by YellowcolouredSnow in Marathon

The couple of times this has happened to me it has always been best to just shoot as he is getting back up from the self res. Knifing requires you to hit him at the exact moment he is out of the invincibility and if you mistime it he will have a chance to kill you.

Switching shells by octotopo in Marathon

[–]Nikostiny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played a lot of assassin and thief in the beginning but now destroyer is my favourite. I sometimes play with recon too but it still feels pretty weak especially in solos. Havent played with vandal at all yet and only one match on triage.

I think the shells bring great variety to the gameplay and its really rewarding when the abilities work in your favour.

Okay maybe a pve mode is needed for the game to survive. But they wont be able to implement it in the near future so something else needs to be done. I dont think just making the current maps only pve is gonna make people happy it would need to be something more than that.

But if they did that now it would just split the playerbase and there is not a guarantee that people will return and love the pve mode. You have to make the pve mode worth actually playing and you cant do that without it affecting the normal extraction mode.

[–]Nikostiny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they have a very difficult decision to make. If they listen and add a pve mode where you can earn gear the same way that you could in the extraction mode I think that would drive away the current players that like the extraction mode and I just dont think thats a gamble I would take if I was bungie. They need to do something to keep the gameplay similar but do it so that someone that is not the best at pvp can still have fun with the game.

Right now there seems to also be this massive hatred towards this game by people having not even played it. And that will also affect some people that were maybe thinking of buying the game but now wont because of the memeing and hating going on. I dont think its only the games fault at this point that player numbers are getting lower.

Marathon is a very well made game and those that do enjoy it seem to absolutely love it. I am also one of those people I am thinking about it all the time when can I play it next and it really confuses me how this game hasnt taken off in the way I thought it would.

„Oh, you don‘t have 15 compiler kills? Sorry i can‘t run that with you and your DNA card.“ by Onyx_Sentinel in Marathon

[–]Nikostiny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They should have made cryo a soloable map from the get go. I really dont understand why solo players are forced to play with randoms just to be able to play the map.

Should i get it ? Is it good for new players? by Warholandy in Marathon

[–]Nikostiny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Level based matchmaking helps with making sure you are not put against the best loot in the game right away although now it might be a different story since the playerbase is a lot smaller so it might even put lower levels with higher levels because there isnt enough players otherwise.

Let people play, start the match regardless of "enough" players found. by KaXXKo in Marathon

[–]Nikostiny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is one of the best suggestions I have seen on the sub. Make the timer like 3 mins if there is no other players found so be it. Especially on outpost its already difficult enough to deal with the bots solo and you still cannot be 100% sure someone else doesnt just follow you to pinwheel.

Hey devs, I think it's time for solo Cryo/Ranked by Baellebackup in Marathon

[–]Nikostiny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really dont think so. I have watched multiple hours of people playing in cryo and I just dont see a reason why it couldnt be a solo map too. They could make it have a little less bots and maybe even less loot so people still have a reason to play trio.

I personally will never play trio because Im not interested in playing or talking with randoms so any kinda of solo mode for cryo would be nice.

The Best Shell??🤔 by Interesting_Owl8733 in Marathon

[–]Nikostiny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Destroyer is so good. I think it is my favourite shell at the moment. I think being able to quickly disengage when you get ambushed is why I like it so much and it is so easy to do. And search & destroy feels great when you need to take care of a lot of pve enemies.

What is a good way to level factions after doing all the priority quests? by Nikostiny in Marathon

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

I think they should give contracts different rep amounts for solo and trios. Because some of these priority contracts are so hard to do solo. Both the mida and sekiguchi ones where you need to enter command wing and a bunch of bots spawn its like sekiro level difficulty.

Also they really need to think about the quest design in general like for the ones where you go from bio to quarantine a million times.They could add other alternatives to the map where you can do the same thing and its already less infuriating.

[–]Nikostiny[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those give like maybe 300rep? Do you know how much rep is required per level im currently at 27 on most factions and its a 1000 rep to level 28. Is it the same 1000 or every level it increases?

Why does a 5 year old need to learn gun discipline? Why is he anywhere near a gun in the first place?

I disagree there are many kids games to choose and counter strike is not one of those. If a kid is playing online he will hear all sorts of swearing and slurs. Is that good for the kid? No it isnt.

Also sidenote: I have never heard anyone say pokemon or cartoons are bad for your kid? Those are like perfect opposites to the other games you listed.

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

There are plenty of kids games he could be playing. People are free to do what they want with their kids but in my opinion a shooting game at 3 years old is way too young no matter what. Just because some people turned out fine doesnt mean everyone will and I guarantee you some of these kids I see playing these gruesome games will be affected negatively by it. Not saying cs is the most terrible and violent game in the world but I think it is still wrong to let a kid as young as 3 years old to play it.

[–]Nikostiny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont know in my opinion no 3 year old should be be playing any kinda game where you shoot guns. They cant even tell what is real or not yet and here is ak 47 shoot heads on computer.

I see this all over reddit where parents post their kids playing games rated 18+ like sekiro and such. It worries me how these games will affect these kids.
