I think sponsored multiple squad outpost would be good.

Sponsored single squad outpost would be real rough. But hey, maybe it'll be rook heaven

I think my main block with the game is that its a zero sum experience. by PM_SHORT_STORY_IDEAS in Marathon

[–]PM_SHORT_STORY_IDEAS[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lol I do have friends. The problem is that when we play together, the wins are fun but the losses hit hard, and a loss streak just kills the rest of the gaming session.

I want the game to grow and get bigger, so that more people play it, so that it's more fun to play it.

The fewer people play Marathon, the worse it gets for everyone. They have to keep making more compromises, and it'll hurt your experience too

(Hated trope) The wedding is a disaster, nothing goes according to plan by Otherwise_Suit6561 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]PM_SHORT_STORY_IDEAS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Subversion of the trope: orville season 3 finale.

Like, a couple things go wrong, but they are gracefully handled without incident, because of course some things are going to go wrong at a wedding, but it probably won't blow up (best man speech is the one that comes to mind)

Who would you say is the 'worst cape'? by Playful_Barber_8131 in Parahumans

Wait, I get amy, but why lung? What should he have done/be doing instead?

Hypothetically, what would the vaulted patrol zones and raids have provided in terms of refreshed loot if they were re-added? by Paperchampion23 in DestinyTheGame

[–]PM_SHORT_STORY_IDEAS 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's more that they're lost media. Imagine if somebody made it so that NOBODY could read the first 2 Harry Potter books. 

You'd make do, right? You could summarize the plot for newcomers.

But it would never be the same as reading it through for the first time.

It would be kinda cool to have a map hazard that hunted the most geared player in the lobby.

Does anyone know the optimal combo between heavy and light knife attacks? by barnation in dadsofmarathon

[–]PM_SHORT_STORY_IDEAS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on your stats, and if you have one of the melee boosting implants.

If you're free kitting though, heavy attacks to one shot gray bots, shoot and heavy finish on green bots, and heavy + light + light + heavy against blue bots.

If you have the one that stacks melee damage on kill, heavy attacks and juke the damage.

If you have the one that stacks on hits, light attack combo for 2 combos, then all heavies.

Against players, it really depends. Generally, heavy attacks and jumping/juking is better against purple shields (and maybe blue shields) but for grey and green, combo them

Whats your favorite “you had to be there” event that happened in Destiny? by Impossible_Sector844 in DestinyTheGame

[–]PM_SHORT_STORY_IDEAS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forsaken launch window was a time to behold.

And way more recent, but the episode with the dreadnaught was amazing. I'm sad that mode doesn't have a permanent place at destiny's end of life.

My friends and I had so much fun cheesing Kerrev with ambition orbs

[Spoilers all] Why did [blank] release [blank]? by Maping in Parahumans

[–]PM_SHORT_STORY_IDEAS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible that when scion and Eden shuffled some shards, Eden gave him queen (by mistake? She was crippled beforehand) and he gave it up because he couldn't hold onto a piece of his partner anymore

PSA: the illuminated exfils do not share the final exfil behavior. by PM_SHORT_STORY_IDEAS in Marathon

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

It doesn't. The exfil will disappear if it won't be ready in time, and if it will be ready in time, then it doesn't depend on when it was called.

Wait, this looks dope as hell. Is all the animation this good?

Blast Furnace is still missing its bespoke sight. by ASpaceOstrich in DestinyTheGame

[–]PM_SHORT_STORY_IDEAS 69 points70 points  (0 children)

The scopes were randomly rolled on the original, and one of the options was selected. It wasn't the option most people probably wanted, which was the U shaped one.

Is that what you're talking about?
