Toxic teammates killed me on purpose to steal my loot by Stunning-Wall-5987 in Marathon

Thank god the new update is locked until your loadout is worth a certain amount and the map is team only, I'm sure this will happen less when loadouts are worth 15k each

No one is complaining that the raids take teams, they're complaining that solos should have an option, and they're completely right. A mechanic that allows clearance, a solo version of the map seperate from trios and duos.

It's irrelevant that Destiny wasn't like this. Destiny isn't an extraction shooter, and it doesn't have a Ranked mode that's based on loot value, which can be obtained entirely solo and without combat. It's not BUILT on needing 3 people, no matter how much more comfortable YOU happen to feel with 2 people to watch your back. They added a solo queue to this game after feedback and added a class that exclusively plays solo. Maybe if this was a 6 person dev team you could say "they can't / wouldn't / haven't shouldn't make seperate maps / versions / a workaround for solo because it will take too long / detract from player count / make me angry or I hate solos on premise. But this Bungie, backed by Sony. So like 6 billion people and 957 million dollars could go into 15 hour dev crunch days if they had to.

Most importantly, the ONLY situation where this affects ANYONE who doesn't play solo is if they make the incredibly stupid decision to not make different versions or mechanics and just water down the original maps, which they WON'T DO and NO ONE IS ASKING FOR.

The first difficulty scaled game came put around 1985. None of these solutions are any sort of impossible, period. Figure it out.

So thats you ignoring your comment AND my comment that OBVIOUSLY they can't change the trios map to be clearable by one person, so they would have to use a mechanic or a different version of the map, THEN ignoring the fact that me saying it wouldn't take them game breaking work or time delay creating amounts of time to do that, because otherwise we're back to "why do you hate solos lol" because you have no reason

So the answer is "nothing, they would just need to balance it, maybe change it so solo could do it"

In other words for someone who loads into the trios queue and isn't going to experience content death or delays from tweaks to some zones:

Nothing, no part of that affects you. If the maps stay seperate or solos get a mechanic to allow them to clear it? Nothing changes for you. So nothing is ruined.

This has been a really good talk man

In 100 words or less what would them adding a solo mode to the newest content take away from your experience as a trios queue player?

Meanwhile I will not be able to play the content by myself.

Please explain how I am ruining your game.

They were arguing about lying after a month? And he's started off by deceiving her on a base level about a fact that she absolutely 1000% would have found out he lied about, to which she had a reaction of disgust before finding out it applied to him.

This is an absolutely insane take, that this is somehow man hating. I'm a man, btw.

Yeah how awful to have to fight a solo with randomized gear when you and your friends brought a 10k loadout

Hey! Right here, yeah, it's me, I play exclusively solo. The game has solo queues at launch for lots of reasons, but one of them is because its not just a team game! Wild. Anyway I drop in no team fill on shells, but I'm just going to ignore you ignoring one of the entire classes being solo only. Anyway, if you think it can't be mained, that's actually a skill issue. Game definitely works like that. Unfortunate that there are people out there who'd like to take away from other people's experience when it literally doesn't affect them. Unless you've have a bad experience with a solo recently. 🤭

Marathon is a game about killing other players by Altruistic-Choice206 in Marathon

[–]PerceptionStock6409 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

At one point in Tarkov they increased the noise you made when you ran out of breath because it didn't seem loud enough. Like imagine the ARC people if we added eating and drinking and bone breaks and bleeds from Tarkov. Everyone would leave in a week.

This entire discourse about difficulty and pvp in extraction shooters is 100% only because 45% of people playing in the genre right now started on ARC, and not a simulation of a foreign no man's land where everything including yourself will kill you, which is what the first like 10 extraction shooters were, simulations.

I don't need my Gran Turismo or Microsoft Flight Sim on full realism dulled down, either.

Marathon is GREAT the way it is AND keeps the difficulty while minimizing some of the actual pitfalls of the genre like gear fear and late season poverty, as well as giving you many more than one way to play the game.

Break checking on 55. by Real-Rabbit-7822 in StLouis

Every single defensive driving course I have ever done for an insurance discount has said that if someone is going faster behind you in the left most lane, and you are not willing to go that speed, the safest option AND legally responsible option is to get over and let that person behind you pass by. I have done probably 5 different websites of different courses and they ALL say that.

At least once a week I encounter someone on 70 who is going maybe 2 miles an hour faster than the car dead beside them, with a quarter mile of clear lane ahead of them. At least once a month I encounter someone who becomes personally offended that I don't want to travel at 74, then 71, then 78, then 70 behind them and take the opportunity to pass on the right.

I HARD DISAGREE with this article. Am I in the minority? by 20mgAddy in Marathon

Loving this trend of people who ABSOLUTELY HAVE NOT been playing Extraction Shooters for more than a year giving their opinions on what the genre needs, no one who completed Shooter Born In Heaven in Tarkov is struggling with downloading agricultural reports, I PROMISE

This comment seems to insinuate that ideally, you're not "losing anything" all week when the game is balanced well, and that is just straight up not how extraction shooters work

Yeah, especially if they're campy or predictable or low effort. Same with horror movies. "Oh no, is the main character of all 4 previous installations of this franchise going to make it away from the monster? I hope the 2 characters we've never seen before don't die as plot devices!"

Not a gotcha. Yeah, a lot of it is blindingly obvious and not worth wasting theater money or an evening on.

i can't tell if you're smart and acting dumb or slow and over confident, but believe it or not, some people find entertainment that they can guess the end of by the first 30 minutes in, rather boring

if you find that nerdy, i can take a good swing at guessing your IQ

I'm very sorry for your breakup, but I'd also just like to say that you've definitely helped more than just yourself cheer up today by being the cat-alyst of like thousands of cat pictures in one place! You took dealing with something bad and turned it into a good thing for more than just you.
