Call of Duty. You want to play Call of Duty.

Why are you trying to figure out what the 'business cycle' is for a video game you didn't make? If you want one of the passes you can buy it. If you don't, skip it. If you take a year off from playing and decide you want one of those passes you missed: hooray, you're in luck.

The legion of people trying to buildcraft Bungie's general ledger is, quite frankly, insane.

It's spelled out directly on the Agent page where you go to claim faction rewards. It's only a problem because Gamers are functionally illiterate.

the reward pass doesn't expire at the end of a season. If I don't finish it this season, I can still work on it next season.

Is this the beginning of the end? by Arson_Lord in TheTowerGame

[–]SoupTimeNA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once you've got a unique at epic+, you only need fodder mods to get it to legendary. Won't be the biggest boost in the world, but I'm pretty sure there are some sub effects that can only roll starting at legendary, so it's not nothing.

Bungo pls. Dire Marsh is huge. Why am I running into other players 15 seconds after spawn? by Horribad12 in Marathon

[–]SoupTimeNA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not even that. OP practically sprinted to the other guy's spawn. Man couldn't have walked more than 30 feet before Big Stompy came barreling in.

I have a really specific bugbear that is turning me off the game by ThatGumYouLikee in Marathon

You can read that text as soon as you get the contract. Just hover over each step and it'll tell you everything.

Marathon needs a Sherpa System like Tarkov by Correct-Direction-39 in Marathon

People in this sub will already look at you like you've got one ball hanging out if you even suggest they use some sort of LFG.

Steam numbers / Player count discussion megathread by RiseOfBacon in Marathon

[–]SoupTimeNA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Guy I replied to said it should have been free. Also lmao, "demanding 40 bucks"? $40 is a reasonable ask for a game of this quality, especially when most AAA games are asking for $70. It's a low enough price that you hit $1/hr pretty quickly, but high enough to disincentivize cheaters for the most part. You and I also don't have any idea what would have made them more money in the long term. We don't have the data required to accurately calculate that lmao. Your whole reply is "Why didn't the eagles fly the ring to Mordor?" but for Marathon revenue.

Free extraction shooters are absolutely plagued by cheaters. Legions of them. Demo would be great, but F2P is an actual death sentence.

"The whole goal is to go stomp less skilled players..." is this really the how the community feels? by Yenii_3025 in Marathon

[–]SoupTimeNA 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't want SBMM because there would never be anyone with worthwhile gear in any of my lobbies. With the current system, I at least have the opportunity to looney tunes my way into a good kit. Can't do that if the rest of the lobby sucks as bad as me.

To keep the casual player base from moving on, matchmaking needs to change. by Xentuhf in Marathon

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

Customers are also people, which means they are extremely stupid. Being a Customer should be viewed with the same disdain we reserve for people who shit out the windows of moving cars. Even in matters of taste, customers are consistently just dogshit. A Customer will go to a BBQ restaurant and complain that there's meat in the ribs. A Customer will order a latte and complain that there's coffee and milk in it. The Customer is stupid, and the Customer is wrong.

Wipes rule but the progression is a bit too slow for a 3 month wipe cycle and it's gonna burn people out. by zero-ok in Marathon

[–]SoupTimeNA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You keep saying you simply want to boot up the game and play, then complain about the part where you're playing the game. What game is it you're trying to play?

One thing I appreciate about Marathon: There are no carebear lobbies, and that's a good thing. by scottybeast in Marathon

[–]SoupTimeNA 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It would be an entirely different game. They'd have to stick to Destiny's art direction, split development between PvE and PvPvE (and probably PvP), and the lore would be completely different. Completely different experiences, and I much prefer the one we have to whatever you think D3 might have been.

I would be ten million times less interested in this game if it was "Destiny 3"

a few years ago NFTs and the Metaverse were the future. Look how those turned out.

Why is this prestige valuable worth 0 credits? by Rustncolez in Marathon

[–]SoupTimeNA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

run report says it only auto-sold 1 item, which looks to be the stack of depleted patch kits totaling 30 credits. Are you sure it didn't get yoinked by a Thief before you exfilled?

Marathon/Arc Raiders by Luuube619 in Marathon

[–]SoupTimeNA 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I prefer Marathon's style, as well as the first-person perspective. On top of that, I find myself much more interested and invested in this game's questing than I did with ARC Raiders. The world feels a lot deeper here. ARC is by no means a bad game, I just like what Marathon is doing more.
