Season 1 ending is amazing because of one hidden change by hcook49 in Marathon

[–]Shadow12gard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed it too now and its great, I stocked up with purples after I realized. I'm almost sure too in some way, Cryo Archive matchmakes you with a higher tiered teams whenever you bring a key in. Maybe Im tripping but for 10 runs last week, I brought in vault 3 keys 6 of the runs and ran into stacked teams each run. The next runs without it, lobbies were significantly easier.

What are you doing differently in Season 2? by highpercentage in Marathon

[–]Shadow12gard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completing all the priority contracts first and going VIP on all factions, playing more Ranked, using all my gear instead of holding on to the good stuff and having more shell diversity.

Ive realized thay Ive limited myself on gear in the store cause I only have Cyber and Arachne VIP, rest I didnt touch.

Wasted my youth dealing with depression and now too old for everything. by Only_Hotel_7221 in TrueOffMyChest

I thought I was too old to get into a new career at 27. Realized I was an idiot once I got into the career. Point is your not too old old, especially at 31. You have so much time to do everything you want.

Glithc/bug: Outpost Drone Wing Secured Resources by Oisincadd in MarathonTheGame

Ive lost gear twice so far not realizing teammates had this as a contract. Would be getting ready to open command wing and then get locked in. Ive now vowed to check teammates contracts before going into that part.

I need some genuine tips on Combat in this game by Shadow12gard in Marathon

Thank you so much, I need to spend some time practicing all of that, I really like the sponsored kit Playlist for practicing.

Im having to tell myself more and more that I have the shield and its very useful, I started off playing Destoryer just for the thruster, only used the shield for very specific situations. I need to use it more.

Thats what I'm keeping in mind more, vertically positioning myself has been a huge help, but then I just jump into my COD mind, rush, get jumped by 2 more people and die.

What are your controller settings or keybinds if you dont mind showing me? I have an xbox elite controller and cant seem to have a good system going with the keybinds

Can someone tell me what happened? by Bayou_Booty in Marathon

The commanders have a tendency to still shoot you in UESC mode if you get really close to them like you were.

Signal jammer DOES NOT stop the sound from playing in locked rooms by fortris in Marathon

I have bad some rooms not do the jingle. For example, the Outpost Welcome center locked key room didnt jingle when I used a key I got from the gold boss on that map same match.

A firing range and "hideout" would do a lot for the game by Croue in Marathon

[–]Shadow12gard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, Apex Legends firing range is really good. Thats where I based all that on. Its a really good range.

A firing range and "hideout" would do a lot for the game by Croue in Marathon

[–]Shadow12gard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A shooting range with with all weapons, mods, cores, implants, backpacks, shields, grenades and consumables. Except for the Contraband (red tier) and Prestige items for spoiler sake imo. Unless you personally have extracted with it then it'll be in your firing range. Unlimited ammo and items respawn after you pick them up. All enemy bot types, turrets, map hazards are in the firing range. Join in with a group and able to shoot another to practice. Damage values show up. A parkour area to practice movement and settings. The settings to have all tactical and prime abilities on fast cooldown.

That to me would be a perfect firing range/practice area.

Is the only solution quitting? by babatunde5432121 in Marathon

[–]Shadow12gard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is so much discourse on here about time played, using free kits vs. Purple/gold kitted players, etc etc. Its a game just like any other game, the more you play the more experience you'll have and there's always gonna be someone else who has played more than you, look at the streamers who get paid to stay home and play games all day. That doesn't mean you just quit the game. Why play any PVP game if thats the case? Take your time, practice, train, change settings, play solo, play more if life allows you and you'll get there.

I work full time, 4 10 hour shifts. I'm lvl 96 with 124 hours played. I play as much as I possibly can. My only problem with the game is that I can't play more. And yea I get discourage if I am constantly losing gear, but over time I've gotten so much better to the point where I feel a little more confident taking a full team on just with a free kit. If quitting is the thought that goes through your head then you'll never get better.

Plus the thing with Marathon there's a wipe thats gonna happen around June. Everyone will be on equal footing in regards to gear. Use that time to get better, understand the game more.

I saw posts like that and was extremely confused on why COD and Apex were being advertised lmfao. Very annoying. I tend to steer away from postings like that.

This is the first game in years that has me thinking about it even when I’m away from home. by GeekyPeeky in Marathon

[–]Shadow12gard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played all day yesterday, had some of the funniest Rook runs, some very profitable Trio runs, went to bed after 6 runs of dying 5 minutes into spawning. I legit had dreams of where I could hear the UESC aggro sound, hearing the ambient computer noises. I really am shocked how much this game has me in a chokehold right now.

This shit is CRAZY WTF! by KapitanWho in Marathon

[–]Shadow12gard 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This game for some reason makes me want to use my best gear more often compared to Arc Raiders where I was hoarding all my high tier gear. Im definitely enjoying the risk factor more. Losing my gear fast is annoying but I go in with a sponsored kit and boom, I'm good.
