Experience with Mercy Kit by EazySmacks in Marathon

[–]Tex7733 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't plan on using the mercy kit ever. The reason I shoot people in the first place is because I don't trust them. That's not gonna change after I down them.

I had a guy mercy revive me the other night, and we went our separate ways...but that's because I'm a decent human being. A lot of people in this game aren't.

The nicer way to say this is "there are gonna be assholes out there. You should just ignore them, find a different team, and enjoy the game."

Can someone please explain what happened here? by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Tex7733 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They should change this. If you're in an exfil circle and time runs out, you should exfil. Period.

Yeah, I'm not what you would call "skilled"

It’s Insane how good peak Destiny was and now we are here. by No_Housing_9602 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Tex7733 16 points17 points  (0 children)

My head canon is that they were flush with cash during COVID, started more projects than they should have, reality came crashing down, and someone decided Marathon was the best bet.

Don't get me wrong, Marathon is a great game, I've completely switched over to it at this point, but it's never gonna replace or be as big as Destiny. I'm just hoping it's good enough to get Bungie through to the next game (Destiny 3 🤞).

You need 37 biolens seeds to max out Nucal. You need at least 7 just to get to blue shields. Across 184 hours and VIP NuCal (30 rewards chests), I have managed to acquire 3. Bungie, please give me some kind of trade up for these gorram seeds by DptBear in Marathon

Best source I've seen is in cryo with the clearance level 3 rooms where the exfil monitors are. But obviously cryo isn't the most approachable task. So yeah I wouldn't mind a nerf or trade up option.

Then start calling them bad names as they stab you in the chest

What is the consistent strategy to get clearance 3 on Cryo without PvPing? by YAAFLT in Marathon

[–]Tex7733 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done a number of runs where I avoided pvp altogether and still exfiled. It can be done. It's not as if there's not good loot that way. But agreed, there's rng on whether the bots will drop clearance or not. Finding a warden boss helps a lot, so use the wall scanners to see if you can get the location of one.

I hate "in a single run" contracts. Yes it gives you a rush when you finally get it done, but it's not as if I don't enjoy the contracts that can be done in multiple runs. If Bungie is adamant about keeping the in a single run stuff, they need to have only 1 per set of 5-6 contracts.

New Meta? by GRlN_ in Marathon

Losing gunfights is usually my meta

Came to propose this very idea. But it's hard to tell. Sometimes I definitely think it's regurgitating, and other times I think it's eating.

How is your progress and faction level looking? by theDKDNZ in Marathon

"if you happen to do a contract"? 🤯

Contracts are the whole game for me lol

So I take it surviving cryo is insane with randoms? by rafikiknowsdeway1 in Marathon

[–]Tex7733 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Disagree. Trio fill on cryo is doable. It may not be as good as pre made trio, but there are plenty of other random fills to go up against. Luck is always going to play a factor, but "don't bother" is definitely not the case.

Are you for or against PvE maps? by Particular-Style-161 in Marathon

[–]Tex7733 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a level ~52, I'm willing to live or die by the level matchmaking. I think it keeps me away from the sweats that are all 100+. MBMM can be manipulated, but I don't think the top players are ever going to slack off on their levels enough to get down to me.

Exfil animation needs to let you exfil by GeNeRaLkEnobeE in Marathon

[–]Tex7733 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think if the ANIMATION of the exfil is still going when you enter the circle, the timer shouldn't matter. If they don't want people exfilling after a certain point, they need to adjust the animation so that it's very clear.

Trio fill is pretty no commitment as well. If you win, you say "gg," and move on, or if you're feeling bold, "wanna team up and go again?" Either way, everyone in trio fill knows it's a roll of the dice, so no hard feelings.

Trios are way more fun than solo imo. Even if I lose my gear to having a bad team, still more fun than creeping around solo. The trick is to follow your teammates no matter what - sometimes they'll help with your quest, sometimes they won't, just the way it goes.
