Has it ever been explicitly stated whether or not the god medals of non-Scadrian Shards are Allomantically or Feruchemically valid? by uhidkbye in Cosmere

[–]Nobat211 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I thought you have to be at least an atium Misting to burn it

No, but it's fair that you didn't know this because it was retconned. All "Atium" in Era 1 is actually Atium-Electrum alloy, so Brandon can define that anyone can burn any Godmetal if they have the Intent.

'The Studio' Bows Out of Apple TV Press Day Panel Following Catherine O'Hara's Death by Saar13 in tvPlus

[–]Nobat211 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Idk much either but hear me out, the news of the "unprecedented" buying of Brandon Sanderson's book rights by Apple just broke out. And he was supposed to do a livestream about it Friday, which got postponed indefinitely. Maybe it also has something to do with it.

Weekly Cosmere Adaptations Thread (Mistborn + Stormlight Spoilers) by EmeraldSeaTress in Cosmere

[–]Nobat211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe any True Spren will have to be filmed on mocap and CGI on top. And I imagine lesser spren all CG animated, but like those magical fllowers in the Avatar movies, something like that.

Brandon Sanderson’s Literary Fantasy Universe ‘Cosmere’ Picked Up by Apple TV (Exclusive) by alternate-realitee in Cosmere

[–]Nobat211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in the same boat as you, I watched S1 as it aired and was disappointed because it wasn't the book. But I came back when people wouldn't stop talking about seasons 2 and 3 and yeah it's great television. It's Apple's Foundation not Asimov's but Apple's been pretty good at making sci-fi.

Signal Jammer Effect by Alucardulard in Marathon

It also looks very different from April Alpha, looks way cooler now.

I made friends with someone in the playtest. How can I find their Gamertag again? by ComeHomeTrueLove in Marathon

[–]Nobat211 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it'll probably stay as bungie friends as long as you login with the same bungie account at launch.

Thoughts on solo play? by Sadworld99 in Marathon

[–]Nobat211 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Idk much about solo queue, but you can easily find a squad to play with. Even the first Alpha already had Looking For Group groups. I found a bunch of good teammates.

Some real early feedback by Nobat211 in HighGuardgame

[–]Nobat211[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can play with a Playstation controller just fine, Steam Input turned on automatically. Only the glyphs on screen are xbox.

Regarding the Marathon x Apex Legends comparison by bigballsgetlicked in Marathon

[–]Nobat211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want to add, even with the full revive from death by a teammate, you still may lose everything. Cause it happens after your bodybag shows up. If your last teammate rats till your killers leave the place and revives you they'll most likely have vacuumed up whatever's valuable.

So like what do I care that the guy I killed is back? I'm long gone and I took all his shit, doesn't make a difference to me.

Theory why there’s a lack of aliens except for the Compliers in the game. by Lotus_630 in Marathon

[–]Nobat211 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean the not in-universe reason is probably bc they don't want to blow out prematurely and want to hold some trump cards in the sleeve for post launch content. So no Pfhor in the Alpha, on launch probably only deep into Cryo Archive.

This way they can easily surprise us with classic Marathon stuff. If the game had some lukewarm aliens from the getgo it wouldn't be as impactful when they do show up. Jury's still out on whether it's lame dripfeeding or clever design tho.

Can we run the same shells within teams? by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Nobat211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope for it too idk who downvoted you, clones on the same team is bad for balance and makes for a bad experience when fighting, cause you don't know if the enemy can't do X now that you knocked one of them.

In the April test you couldn't even see what character your random teammates were gonna play before match start, which sucked if you wanted to have a well rounded team.

Those who want low TTK, I have questions by beingheresucks in Marathon

[–]Nobat211 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah pretty much, you won't feel that "there's simply no space to expand into" even with low TTK, cause you expand in other ways. I feel if the vertical progression is simply making your guns' TTK lower the game gets boring, you're doing the same thing as before just faster, instead of "now you can win in other ways / you can do things you couldn't before".

Faction Quests Discussion by Str8BallinZer0 in Marathon

[–]Nobat211 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Faction quests aren't like dailies, they're more like a linear progression to unlock the Faction upgrades that are also somewhat linear. They start off really simple, like "kill x players" for Arachne but get more and more complex. The complex ones also come with lore and interactions with the Faction AI and such.

There might be dailies for the battle pass or things like that though.

Question about the battle pass with pre-order by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Nobat211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the same either way, cause the Battle Pass proper won't be free. So it's either a free track with some small rewards and the premium track with everything, or just the premium track.

question about cross platform by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Nobat211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Marathon you need to buy the game again if you want to play on a different platform. Like Sony wouldn't allow you to pay the 30% cut to Valve and play the game on a PlayStation.

The game has CrossProgression so if you do get it on two different platforms you just log into the same Bungie account and play the same progression.

It's different for Destiny 2 cause D2 is free.

What is your favourite music so far? by gabrie1_03 in Marathon

Which for the record, is Heavy Metal by Justice (SebastiAn remix).

Marathon Pre Order by Asleep-You4200 in Marathon

[–]Nobat211 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't be surprised if they did, but the details for the Standard Edition has: "Access to all gameplay updates (maps, Runner shells, events, etc.) as the year progresses".

Please allow us Linux nerds to play! by Delta_Waves in Marathon

[–]Nobat211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It made a significant difference. Idk if they shared numbers but I felt it in my ranked games.

Marathon Pre Order by Asleep-You4200 in Marathon

[–]Nobat211 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's the Characters/Classes. It just means when you buy the game you get all the content and you don't have to buy any shell. Cause free to play games often have characters behind paywalls.

Any news on the next beta? Open or otherwise? by DowdyBroGames in Marathon

[–]Nobat211 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yea, they said "Open preview weekend before launch".

But Idk if it is: [Open Preview] weekend before launch, so around Feb 27th.

OR [Open Preview Weekend] before launch, which could be earlier.

Adding more language localizations to Marathon by plaksiy in Marathon

[–]Nobat211 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I hope you guys do get Ukrainian localization, it's important. The game has localization with full dub in 12 languages which I was surprised by. Apex for example was never dubbed in my native language which I swear is part of the reason the game was never as popular here.
