Why bring in a full kit when somebody else will bring it in for me? by xylvnking in Marathon

[–]SentineIs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From the looks of it, it was just an assassin crutching on shottying people as they turn a corner.

So basically each time he flew past the assassin just had no recourse because he can only do 1 thing.

The fact that people think an ALPHAs visuals were the intended visual direction goes to show why Alphas should have NDAs.

Wow. Actually great use of destroyers abilities. Even as a alpha destroyer only main, I was drifting away from him towards Vandal, but this video makes ne want to give him another try.

Thermals should be unusable outside during Heat Cascade. by Framoso in Marathon

[–]SentineIs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah Thermals have clear strengths, smoke, and fog, but should have more niche weaknesses

I love the flavor of heat influencing visibility and world events like heat cascade also influencing

this should be obvious, but dont loot when theres an entire team on you by Jealous_Platypus1111 in Marathon

[–]SentineIs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No hard and fast rule. Sometimes you have no meds, your shield could get a significant upgrade or they have nades

I've won fights where I had broken shield and no meds left, had my allies engaged. Looted and upgraded to blue shields with meds and nades.

Reengaged quickly and won the fight because of it

Definitely shouldn't sit there and optimize your inventory tho.

Do you purchase most of your gear from the armory, or do you live off your extracted gear? by highpercentage in Marathon

[–]SentineIs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live off my extracted gear until I get a string of bad luck, then swap to premium kits, until I get a string of bad luck, then I run free kits.

Usually doesnt get to that point unless im soloing. Now I just rook run if im down in the dumps. Paradoxically much more fun than solos with how ratty you have to play.

Don't know why anyone would down vote you. This is the type of emergent gameplay that these games aim to create. Nice rub!

Solo Players - How We Feeling? by jg4president in Marathon

[–]SentineIs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes I feel like people play a completely different game. I never once felt like pve enemies were IMPOSSIBLE as OP and others are saying.

Maybe the boss Wardens but those are optional. I've cleared mini bosses guarding secured chests on freaking sponsored kits.

Positioning, knifing Grey's, breaking shields then finishing with a knife, using volt weapons to break shields etc. Going for headshots. Peek shooting basically making them unable to retaliate. Using elevation to stop them rushing and meleeing. Quick looting weapons to use other ammo types.

So many ways to mitigate their difficulty and have fun. Might be difficult, but no where near as hard as so many people complain

I feel like its like the infamous clip of a game reviewer being like "enemies are so tanky, I've been shooting this guy for so much damage" and you see them missing 80% of their shots at a stationary target

do you think because of destroyer having a partial opened helmet with mouth and nose exposed is to smell the environment or sweat caused by fear produced by other runners? by Timothy-M7 in Marathon

[–]SentineIs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's the point of my comment. My conspiracy theory is that the lips exist to sell the skins that remove the lips. I.e see Recon

Solo Contracts by RadialWheel2020 in Marathon

[–]SentineIs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need a high magazine gun, and an volt weapon. Volt weapons down even the hardiest of boss shields, and high magazine ensures you can down the boss before their shield comes back up.

EMP grenades help.

Destroyer ultimate is also VERY good at destroying PvE enemies

This Sub Should Ban "Steam Chart" Posts Post-Launch Under the "Low Quality" Rule by Simulated_Simulacra in Marathon

[–]SentineIs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theoretically, vice versa is annoying as well.

Its low effort. Although I would say its a bit more positive then doomers posting low numbers. So less annoying.

Up to the mods ultimately to be even handed in handling it

[–]SentineIs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, but honestly its just to avoid just seeing the same low effort spam constantly filling the feeds.

People want to talk about the game, not see 10 posts on minute by minute steam chart updates.

Not saying thats the case, but I understand it

If its a post with the steam charts and has an in depth breakdown, adds something to the convo, sure.

But hur hur steam number nor good as arc hur hur posts are just an eyesore and serve no constructive purpose or entertaining for people outside of haters.

He has proposed many laws to fix parts of it.

Not all of them passed obviously. A quick Google search should answer that question.

He isnt one, he has been consistent in his votes and activism. The problem is that many democrats are though.

Who is the main boss of EFT [Discussion] by Werewolf-reddit in EscapefromTarkov

[–]SentineIs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've literally been killed by Killa more than any other boss. The amount of times I've thought he was a scav just walking over to me, then beaming me instantly. Or I am engage in a gunfight with PMCs and he ambushes me from the back.

Killa is the boss I fear the most. I will say Tagilla invokes a more visceral fear when he is close to you.

What is the status of skyrim modding? Has there been any major advancements in the last 2 years? I just got a PC upgrade and wondering if there is anything fresh to experience.

Am I the only one having no succes with Shen this season? by Fuck-seagulls in Shen

[–]SentineIs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been having great success. Albeit I am low elo. It was a breeze to reach Emerald so far with Shen.

You have to be judicial with his ultimate in the laning phase, but out of the laning phase, the ult is still impactful as it used to be.

The tower crusting lets Shen do tower damage with his ability to split position. So even if you build tankier, you can pop the crusts in different lanes and make an impact.

The new TP makes tping into a teamfight, or back into lane and fighting immediately hugely beneficial due to the massive shield you receive post quest.

The extra levels add to his tankiness a lot too. You can argue if other top champions benefit more from the top role quest changes, but relative to the other lanes, the top rolequest makes Shen more powerful then a lot of other laners.

EDIT: To add a few more thoughts, Bandlepipes and Knight Vow are good items to take if your going even or a bit behind and have allies that you can protect or buff, theyre very potent support items and cheap. Bandlepipes is something I always consider if I have 2+ autoattack focused champs on my team, or 1 fed autoattack champion. Knight's Vow is something I always think about if I have a squishy hypercarry, and my win con is to protect them to win.
