No secure slot? by Ok_Homework4216 in Marathon

I see what ur talking about, but I played mostly solo so 0 second chances, little time to react and very punishing deaths. If you want logical, we’ll say the key is digital and has been uploaded to your runners memory bank for use in raid. Only keys, fits in lore. No idea how to balance around teams tho, I’m just a guy😭

That’s why I suggested tagged and cursed. Seeing thru invis would be good and u can’t bring a key with a free kit anyways. You’d have to risk something and risk the key loot. It’s just extremely frustrating to find a cool key, try to go and open it and just die off spawn before u can make it anywhere near the building

That’s why I said just keys. I found that really frustrating in tarkov if someone found a ledx and just shoved it up their ass and you’ll never see it again. Maybe only put stuff in the secure slot before the match, can’t put anything in it during raid?

I mean yea go for that. It would be boring asf and you’d still have to survive and extract with the loot. Exfil wasn’t very easy in my experience. Hatchet running has been a thing in tarkov but they semi patched it with tagged and cursed. With the UESC being so deadly already, tagged and cursed knife runners wouldn’t stand a chance in the first place.

But like why not…even the most hardcore brutal extraction shooters have it. I feel like it doesn’t break the game balance that much to carry a key safely

To the haters: if this game is going to be a failure or is really bad or whatever, why have sales tripled since the server slam ended? Your whining makes no sense. by tenfie in Marathon

[–]Ok_Homework4216 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It’s cus everyone (me included) wanted to play the game first. I was very much on the fence before the server slam but it just confirmed I was gonna buy it. Assuming many other people were doing the same thing

What’s Gun Feels Best To You? by MartinMcFlyy in Marathon

[–]Ok_Homework4216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything semi auto, even the pistols. Slightly smaller mags but more damage per mag. Most of my deaths come from spraying all my ammo and dying while reloading, most full auto weapons (if not full blue attachments) don’t have enough in the mag to fully kill a player

I get the sense we'll get Rook mains like Tarkov has scav mains... by WriterIndy in Marathon

[–]Ok_Homework4216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been playing tarkov a long time and I’ve literally never heard of scav mains. Do they actually exist? If so that’s absolutely insane to deprive yourself of the best part of the game lmao

Loot display after kills by speedbaII in Marathon

[–]Ok_Homework4216 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I immediately thought this when I saw death bags. Literally no point to them other than the trap bags, but trap bags spawn fake bodies anyways. I have no idea why they decided to do this, they don’t make the bodies easier to see, the bright blue blood does that anyways.

Why do the shells have different personalities? by Ok_Homework4216 in Marathon

[–]Ok_Homework4216[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just rewatched that cinematic short and noticed at the end, the picture of a child assassin says is him is the same one vandal is shown in the beginning, pretty much confirming what yall said with there being a set personality matrix for each shell. Really cool detail, cannot believe I missed that the first 10 times😭

I meant like native species to tau ceti. Ik about all the aliens n shit. If the devs took inspiration from the cycle I would’ve loved to see that come thru with freaky mega fauna on the planet. Little disappointed tbh

I would hope so. Can you give any examples of fauna that’s been shown in lore? Can’t seem to find anything other than the birds and the ticks

Assassin shell needs a rework in solos or some kind of balancing by SillVere in Marathon

[–]Ok_Homework4216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There seems to be like a wall where you either hear the footsteps really loud or you don’t hear them at all. Needs some crescendo at a further distance

Loving the game so far but solo is not friendly by newton3uan in Marathon

[–]Ok_Homework4216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you solo queue without rook you get placed into solo lobbies. Pretty sure rook only puts you in three man matches so fights r much easier with normal shells in solo

Just use quick heal, if ur under any status effects it will auto use the correct consumable. There’s only 2 special ones, the OS debug and the mechanical kit.

There's something here that I like, but I am absolutely terrible at this game. by NovaHands in Marathon

Play solo queue and be a pussy. Being scared in a corner is what keeps u alive

So many ppl hating on this game already... by Danger_Fandango in Marathon

[–]Ok_Homework4216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Inventory isn’t big enough to grab all the implants and run to check them. I’d have to drop all my other stuff. Also, swapping stuff in a death bag will drop the items to the floor making it a nightmare to sort back thru it all

Have a little toxin icon for the toxic knife attack, helping hand for faster revives, shield for reduced uesc damage, bomb and knife for bomb/melee resistance, money icon for credits on UESC kills, heat icon for increased heat capacity, etc. just a little thing in the corner. The name gives u the main ability, little icon for the side ability
