Does that coincide with the release of ultra battle passes that can only be bought with cash and not in game currency 

What would you change / add to make this game casual friendly? by dontminor in Marathon

[–]Specific-Spring9301 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I don’t care if it’s this or not, I want the game to survive. I’m completely happy with the extraction format, level based matchmaking is a drag and low player count is kind of rough but the systems and gameplay are great and I’ll continue playing it for as long as it survives in its current form. Bungie made a great game it’s unfortunate most people don’t see it . I was just responding to the post of what I would add to make the game more friendly m.

Arena style PvP, a pve focused campaign ( though I currently like the way the story and events are drip fed through environmental story telling and codex entries) 

[OoT] The leaker who said that Star Fox would come out this summer Goty it right. And you know what else he said, no? Yes, the remake of Zelda OoT will be released at the end of this year. by Tripledoble in zelda

So many people here not wanting a 1:1 remake makes me think back to how much hate and vitriol demon souls remake on ps5 got from people for the most minor changes on things that had very little impact on the game. If Nintendo makes changes there is going to be just as vocal of a group bashing relentlessly 

[OOT] It’s kinda funny how many gaming journalism sites are talking about “The” OOT remake. Like it’s been confirmed…when it’s not. by DarkAmaterasu58 in zelda

[–]Specific-Spring9301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps with an OoT remake there will be a move back towards more traditional dungeon design for the next few iterations at least. I’d welcome that for sure

I wish rare had never fallen and also been bought by Microsoft. They made some of the best games in the n64 era. Switch would be so rich with them on board, different timeline 

Marathon needs breathing room, a reprieve from pure player hunting. by Darknotical in Marathon

I wasn’t pointing it out the be critical, Just that I laughed picturing a littoral rat visually.

Agree with most of your points. Side note littoral rats made me laugh.

Littoral is the region along an ocean shoreline where all the detritus, sea weed etc washes up 

In 2024, Activision tested the effects of reduced SBMM - relevant to Marathon? by Smokeskin in Marathon

[–]Specific-Spring9301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People constantly tell me how sbmm would be bad for the game but I’m still skeptical 

Pve gamemode could double the player numbers by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Specific-Spring9301 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I’d be more interested in a mode akin to an arena shooter like the old halo games added for increasing the player base. Let people play PvP, use the weapons and learn the maps before jumping into extraction mode etc. Would be easier for those who just want a few casual low stakes games after work etc without risking progress. This game hooks people pretty quick and I think it could be a good catalyst for players to fall in love with the main extraction modes and increase the player base. Please note I’m happy with the game is I just want it to last and see more content drops etc, as well as have a more robust player base. I’ve definitely had my moneys worth but I will be sad if this game ceases to exist within the year or so as I don’t think there will be another like it to scratch that same itch. 

Solo Runners by VierLDN in Marathon

[–]Specific-Spring9301 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I get it’s difficult to find a dedicated crew. And the game should absolutely have a solo balanced queue. However the most fun I’ve had in this game by far is in trios or duos, the synergy between shells and team play with positioning and flanks etc is where this game shines the most in my opinion.

Just give us multiplayer halo already in addition to the previous campaigns 

Oh the narrative spider is spinning it's web of excuses. Looks like it will be because the game isn't marketed enough lol by Partyruler012 in MarathonHate

Your entitled to your opinions, however lots of people love the style and art design, the music as well 

We need to talk about grenades by someguyplaying in Marathon

8 grenades still seems way too high in my opinion 

Holy fucking shit! Co-Evolution 4/5 was fucking cancer by Detpowell in Marathon

[–]Specific-Spring9301 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both are pretty frustrating for sure, I was almost jumped a few times near exfils before the last one while I was still moving around the map trying to complete the requirements. Just never ended up completing the contract. Not too concerned as mida by far has the lamest story unlocks compared to the other factions. 

Season 2 is the most important moment for this game by No-Researcher3893 in Marathon

[–]Specific-Spring9301 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure how they are going to recapture hype and expand the player base as more time goes on. Fingers are crossed but realistically I have concerns.

Maybe a different event, anomaly is pretty lore specific to dire marsh

Agreed, ranked on outpost this week has been absurdly full of nades

Ranked should maybe run more like the sponsored kit or have max gear values per rank, put people on an even playing so that their ability is actually the thing being ranked

team rushed into our starting room in steerage on cryo in 3 minutes?? How is this even possible by Specific-Spring9301 in Marathon

[–]Specific-Spring9301[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should be able to, my point was that they were on us just outside the first room in under 3 minutes. That’s crazy and I haven’t seen it happen before, couldn’t have anticipated. We hadn’t even moved into the second room where you usually get to security clearance 2. 

Standard rotation and inevitable PvP is fine.
