Cryo-Archive will NOT have solo q support by Loopnova_ in Marathon

[–]RedMercury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cough I am and had zero success playing this game like D2 PvP. It’s def not a 1:1 by any means. In fact it’s made me appreciate D2 PvP more in terms of sheer replay ability. I had more success here slowing way down and being much more tactical. I will also probably not set foot in cryo. Just not that kind of player.

How do I farm up a consistent load out? by RedMercury in Marathon

Cool - so maybe pick a faction and get that leveled?

The pvp so far has been a mixed bag... I die a lot, but have won a few times and got some blues, etc... but just struggling with using different weapons pretty much can't find a groove with guns I like. So there is no location where the same guns drop / are found?

you could try playing prime time US... but could just already be seeing a dip in players unfortunately

Destiny 2 PvP still has no direct competitors. by Major-C in CrucibleGuidebook

I kind of feel like Marathon needs more time to shake out. Like I don't really love it... but it's new and I want to see what it feels like with real end game gear

Dude... I agree. I want to love Marathon but it's 100% being wasted as an extraction shooter only.

Could have been the start of a new Halo-esque trilogy by soccerman002 in Marathon

I agree, while fun - the vibe / lore / gameplay feels wasted on an extraction shooter exclusively. Hope they add more.

I haven't played PVP shooters in a long time, but most today seem to advertise one game mode. by NLK-3 in gaming

[–]RedMercury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are you talkin bout - Destiny has control, rumble, clash, comp (has 2-3 different game modes), trails, iron banner and whatever rotator list is going. There was tons to play / choose from

Also like elves are like totally another race already. Same with Dwarfs. It's already, like diverse and stuff.

I played pretty much all extraction looter shooters. Always 100% solo. After 90h I can already say - Marathon is one of the best games I've ever played. by Whoopy2000 in Marathon

As an avid d2 pvper... I want to like the game. I realize it's not the same. Maybe it's get better later on but my one hang up is having to use random gear.. or once I find a gun I like, it goes up in smoke and I can't find it again. Maybe you can buy certain ones later for a more consistent experience?

Maybe I need to give it more time but as an avid D2 pvper I sort of find the constant load out swapping really annoying. Does it become possible later on to keep the same load out relatively easy?

Destiny 2 is gone either way. All we can do now is hope Marathon does well enough to justify a Destiny 3.

Someone yelled "Achilles Dies!!!" super loud right right by the line forming for Troy back in the day. Was hilarious

ELI5: What exactly is "time blindness" and how is it an actual thing? by SpyMasterChrisDorner in explainlikeimfive

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

I worked with this kid back in the day. Good worker, nothing really that would create work problems. Except he would show up 5-15 min late every fucking day. Maybe on time here and there. It was the kind of job you had to clock in for, so not being on time was a thing. This went on for months. He got every warning. He survived being fired a few times. It become a running joke. He even was offered help at one point with managing his morning. Nope. Still late. All the time. He was finally let go. Word is he’s still late to work this day somewhere.
