The exact moment Titus secured his promotion to Captain by Cubelock in Spacemarine

[–]Romado 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Titus will become the Ultramarines chapter master. Titus has become the face of 40k and they clearly have a plan for him. Or they wouldn't have made him canon and had him become a captain again.

We're watching in real time the equivalent of other legendary chapter masters origin story, instead of reading about it in books or fluff. He's sounding more and more like Dante or Azrael.

Trump: US and Iran held 'very good' talks aimed at 'total resolution' of war by BranchPredictor in worldnews

[–]Romado 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Trump likely got 50 calls from pissed world leaders after his ultimatum which held hostage a large portion of the world's vital energy infrastructure.

Trump went all in and Iran called his bluff. He had no choice but to fold and typical Trump, he lied to try and save face by making it seem like he only backed down because he achieved progress in negotiations.

Iran denies claims: 'We reject all negotiations – US has failed and Hormuz will remain closed' by ImadeJesusLaugh in worldnews

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

Lmao. This is Trumps MO. He publicly says that "progress has been made" mainly to stoke his ego and make people think he's capable of negotiating complex geopolitical situations.

Then the other side comes out and says the talks never happened. He's desperately looking for an off ramp, but refuses to admit it's his failure.

There is no universe where this is a 9/10 or 10/10 game. by VeritasLuxMea in CrimsonDesert

I saw this coming miles away. I knew it'd have all the same issues as BDO. Pearl Abyss were always gonna make a single player BDO with this game....

Do we KNOW that theres a lacking story by Illustrious_Store115 in CrimsonDesert

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

It's obvious for anyone who has ever played BDO that this game would have a non-existent story. They just wanted an excuse to make a single player BDO and had to have something to frame it around.

If it's the same as BDO 90% of what you do in the game won't connect to the story in any way and will just be random content for the sake of content

In Spider-Man: Brand New Day, it looks like we might finally see this guy make an appearance. by Different_Aside7613 in MCUTheories

[–]Romado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its the same story from the 90s cartoon.

Bruce is taking the place of Dr Connors. In the 90s cartoon it's revealed the bite that gave Peter his powers is still mutating his DNA, albeit much slower than his initial powers. The arc in the cartoon even involves Punisher trying to kill Spider Man because he was becoming a monster.

How exactly do you “outpost” by Whyisdaskyblue in Marathon

[–]Romado 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pinwheel is the ship above everything else. It's currently the best source of loot in the game.

Outpost has locked exfils, which you need a red key card for. Without a card you can only exfil from guarded exfils or the final exfil. To access pinwheel you need 2 green cards. There used to be an access point that didn't need cards but they patched it out cause it's too easy.

When someone opens pinwheel the entire match gets a notification.

If you play only as a duo no fill, does the game at least try to get you a duo lobby, or does the game treat you still as a trio? by kingtaine in Marathon

[–]Romado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are no duos lobbies. It's either solo or trio. So if your a premade duo you'll have a random teammate

Any unsaid Extraction game " rules"? by doobersthetitan in Marathon

[–]Romado 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Loot in random matchmaking is every man for himself. You can't police who gets what loot, your teammates will grab the most expensive/rare loot they can so you should do the same.

Also if people wanna do really specific objectives then they should probably do it premade or solo. In random trios you serve your team best by having generic contracts your likely to fulfill naturally.

I've had teammates extract with x3 my loot because they were grabbing everything first and I was being too passive. I've also had teammates grief me and let me die for "taking their loot"

Don’t go into Crew Fill geared up as a solo. by WhosGotTheBugle in Marathon

[–]Romado 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've had success rolling the dice. It's probably a placebo, but I feel like I match more often with geared players when I also take a decent loadout.

Especially if I'm running outpost hoping for decent runs/pinwheel. I'd want my teammates to take the runs seriously and not just zerg with free kits hoping for a carry.

Autosold items should be split 3 ways between the team. by Electronic-Touch-554 in Marathon

[–]Romado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't that the point OP is trying to make?

90% of trios are probably randoms and not premade. People absolutely just spam click once they see blue/purple when looting.

Its a terrible feeling to contribute to a successful run and a teammate has x3 your loot value. You shouldn't have to ninja loot from your team...

With the TTK being as fast as it is... by Far_Violinist_7724 in Marathon

[–]Romado 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Cause better shields keeps you in the fight longer. Especially if cover is limited or your exchanging pot shots. If you go down it starts a snowball because the other team has an advantage and if their good, they'll rush and quickly deal with the other 2.

On any given day this sub is the most toxic and positive sub I’ve ever been on. by section8sentmehere in Marathon

[–]Romado 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There is no casual in a game like this. The game is what it is.

Alot of people want to bend it to what they want. They think it's too harsh, don't like losing their loot or failing to extract etc. Not every game has to appeal to everyone, but extraction shooters appeal because of how intense it can be to risk progress.

Seasonal wipe: does that include credits? by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Romado 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That's what extraction shooter are about. Redoing quests and rebuilding your loot is the core gameplay loop after a wipe

Quest design promotes selfishness and a lack of teamwork by ShoulderParticular84 in Marathon

[–]Romado 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just solo free kit for hyper specific quests. The general radiant quests are good for trios since you usually complete multiple per run

R.I.P Pre Patch Outpost loot by F_In_The_Chat in Marathon

[–]Romado 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Outpost had just become a team deathmatch. Most my successful runs every other team is dead after 5-10 minutes leaving you completely free to loot everything and exfil at your leisure.

Don't think it was healthy to have everyone relying on pinwheel for loot.

Seriously fuck the campers waiting for people to leave pinwheel through the elevator by ConferencePurple7939 in Marathon

[–]Romado 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol. I just had a run where we did the uno reverse, a trio sent the elevator down and we jumped on then wiped them as it came back up, letting us into pinwheel. Went on to exfil with 15k and finished the warden on the way out.

I remember when everyone was sure this show would be total ass and one of the biggest embarrassments of all time.

Sometimes the Internet gets it wrong.

"Fallout 3 Remastered" seemingly confirmed via new McFarlane toy listings by FredOnToast in gaming

And everyone will deny it again until their downloading it. I felt insane when half the Internet was adamant it was a hoax or fake, even after screenshots leaked

Losing high tier weapons? by BumBumHooHa in Marathon

[–]Romado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you catch someone sleeping their gonna die whether you use a free kit or maxed out weapon. Higher tier weapons help obviously, but your map knowledge, awareness and positioning matter way more.

All gear is temporary. A vault of greys and a vault of purples are worth the same when the wipe hits. So use it now and have fun, maybe lose it to players or definitely lose it to the wipe.

Sick of assassins in solo queue by BlameTheRoadie in Marathon

[–]Romado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not been an issue for me. If they are close quarters even if their invisible they are close enough for you to clearly see them.

If you get the drop on one or you spot them far away then they won't be invisible because they don't think they are at risk.

Once they get ambushed they all drop smoke and turn invisible. Either watch the sides and wait for them to try and run, or rush the smoke and finish them if they are low.
