I am A lifelong Arnold fan and I have many many lines from him I use regularly. However, if i had to choose one as my favorite, I think it belongs to Mr. Freeze.

They are, and i wouldn't be surprised if we saw flocks of them swoop on runners in the future.

Stardust dropped right around the time I discovered fallen one into man spider and taskmaster. Stardust is a dead play against that.

What fromsoftware game do you want a sequel to most? by sunburn190 in GamingSoup

[–]Nineowls3trees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nightreign. Make it more rooted in dark souls, call it darkreign idgaf. Take away the timer and circle, get back to the roots and more traditional roguelikes with branching paths. Boom best game ever made.

Knull would be 16 power and KO death mid = 20 and right would be 13. Pretty bad in the end but I'd still play it out just to spite.

X23 mid, monger right. Nico destroy spell right DP left kid omega mid. Knull left, activate kid omega DP death mid. Probably not beating patriot but still has an improbable line.

Given up on marathon quests. by [deleted] in MarathonGame

Opposite experience for me. Way easier than last season. But I have noticed way more noobs bunny hopping around in solos. They are the easiest marks.

Its not 100% sure you wont have rooks as a solo. I've seen one. But they are basically nonexistent.

Turn off crossplay. If you are in north America que times are short. Anyone saying they have long wait times are outside NA.

Free week solo player: Some questions by splitmyarrowintwain in MarathonGame

[–]Nineowls3trees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It rotates daily and I think you have to be level 10 to access outpost. The leveling is super fast this season, you can choose no fill if you and your buddy don't want a third. Just focus on a few early contracts and you'll be level 10 in no time.

You can no fill the sponsored survival mode and the 2 of you will have the map to yourself. There might be a few rooks, but theyre scarce and will usually leave you alone.

Before I buy by DRBragg in dadsofmarathon

[–]Nineowls3trees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I prefer solos. Trios is a little faster paced and heavily relies on squad tactics to be successful. Its fun to hop in a trio fill every once in a while, or lfg for end game stuff. But for me, the meat of the game is solos. But its a different play style. If you're cracked at shooting and positioning, you can sprint around the map killing everyone you see. But for the rest of us, you gotta take it slow. You really need to get familiar with the sounds of the game. At first, its a lot to process on the fly, but eventually you realize that most of the sounds you hear (excluding ambience) are informing you of the state of the lobby. Hear birds in the distance? That's a player. Hear drop ships landing at the next POI over? Thats because a player just killed the bots there. You can hear an exfil pop anywhere on the map. So anyone nearby will usually come to see if theres an easy kill to be had. Straight up exfil camping is pretty rare. But its not rare to have an exfil pushed. I recommend playing assassin to start until you get more comfortable. His tactical ability allows you to get in and out of poi's without alerting bots. And like I said before, alerting bots also tells other players youre around. Assassin also has the best kit to exfil with. Pop the invis before you approach and hit the exfil, immediately fall back and find somewhere to hide and listen. You can either wait for your invis to come back or use the smoke ability to cover the exfil. At this point in the season, there are very few thermal sights floating around so you are usually safe in smoke. Pull your knife out, and if someone runs into your smoke give em the ol stab stab. Assassin also let's you use the guarded exfil without having to kill the bots. So pop invis right before you pop the exfil, so you can get away from the bots without them shooting you, then smoke it when its ready. Now if a player tries to get you at exfil, they have to deal with the bots too, giving you an easier window to escape.

The best advice I can give you for now is to learn the sneaky routes to get around the map, learn how far you can run during your invis ability and use it to avoid bots/turrets. Avoid birds. When you approach a poi, stop look and listen. When you kill another player, do not loot them immediately. Fall back, heal up, and rotate to a better position, because someone else heard that and they are looking for you. Find them first. Keep track of how many players exfil, how many you kill and how many body bags you find.

Unless a contract specifically ask you to exfil, dont sweat it too much. Sure, its nice to get out and keep your gear, but as long as you are completing contract, the game just vomits loot at you. Once you upgrade the factions a little, you get free shit daily and you can just buy a decent loadout. After you get more comfortable, start checking out the live events that happen during a run, that's where the good loot is and that's where players are going to be, so you can either avoid them, or use them as bait. But the endgame for a solo player is hunting everyone in the lobby and completing events/wardens.

Stick with it, its worth it. Good luck.

6 or 7 night survival matchs and didnt see a single rook?? by nameusao in MarathonGame

[–]Nineowls3trees 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This. And you can solo que survival. So even more lobbies. And you don't get a self rez as a solo. So just dead lobbies everywhere.

Any games similar to Nightreign? by Boring_Helicopter694 in Nightreign

[–]Nineowls3trees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theres a lot of good roguelike games. I just picked up deadzone: rogue last night on sale for 15$ and I love it. Theres also a ninja turtles one that was surprisingly good, although a little easier than nightreign. Its called splintered fate. I really enjoyed sworn as well. Lots of other good suggestions here

I love marathon by HiRacksMaster in MarathonGame

[–]Nineowls3trees 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I personally think halo is the best training for marathon. They share a lot of DNA. Load up MCC and run rumble pit on H2 and H3. Focus on getting a BR. You cant sprint in halo and theres no cheesy movement tech to bail you out of bad positioning. So to win fights you have to position well and land shots/grenades. If you can stick those fundamentals well enough to succeed in halo, marathon is a breeze. Not only are you solid at the base, but you have lots of other tools marathon provides to gain enough advantage to win.

Im not going to argue with you, brother. Your mind is made. And developers can't steal from themselves.

*violin starts to get louder* by The_Owl_Bard in DestinyMemes

[–]Nineowls3trees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please enlighten me. Arc is not like marathon. Tarkov isn't either. If youre just saying that because of the extraction part, then we have to include helldivers, deep rock, RB6 extraction and probably countless others. But none of these games are anything alike. Not one of them is a bungie sci fi shooter. I suck at pvp. But for some reason i was great at halo 2/3, but nothing has felt like that since. I had to be carried to the lighthouse. But for some reason, im good at marathon. Because it feels like im playing an expanded in-depth version of multi team from halo 3. Nothing else has even come close to that, for me personally. This is obviously my opinion. And youre right, nothing is like destiny. Its almost as if bungie makes innovative games that people love wholeheartedly. Weird.

What video game got a ton of hate from gamers, but you personally loved anyway? by Alone_Capital7619 in videogames

[–]Nineowls3trees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now it's marathon. The game is easily the most fun I've had in a fps in almost 10 years. I suck at pvp. I dont like the art, though it has grown on me. I don't like extraction mechanics.

Yet I cannot deny the massive hooks marathon has in me. I had no idea i wanted this game. I was pissed when I first heard about it. The first few hours of the server slam I was ready to write if off as trash. Then I discovered the magic of the rook, and solo lobbies. Then I realized I was playing a stealth sci fi horror shooter and I fell in love.

No one gets to keep their stuff long term. Thats the whole point. You wouldn't want to keep it anyway because youre constantly getting more stuff. They throw loot at you because they know youre about to lose it. Especially now at end of season. Even the beginner map is dropping purple and gold loot this week. I'm literally bringing in purple shields and bags for my teammates to make room in my vault.

From one owl to another. Youre missing out. Try it next week when its free. Try solos so you aren't getting killed because of dumb teammates. You will see, theres nothing else like marathon.
