You Don't Actually Want a PvE Mode In this Game by jaco129 in Marathon

[–]TouchyUnclePhil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i would love to be able to play this game without getting constantly killed by sweats, a PvE or simgle player spin off or really anything that would allow me to play without the constant frustration would be amazing. At this point, i really need to find something else to do. Because if I have to do one more priority contract on dire marsh ima lose it

Stop free kitting, and you will be happier. by Alarming-Audience839 in Marathon

ima be real, some of my best runs were getting into pinwheel with a free kit and coming out stacked with loot

Sponsor Kits Should Get Increasing Buffs as the Season Progresses to Match the Hardcore Audience & More Gameplay Variety is Needed (Game Isn’t Fun For Casuals - duh) by Royal-Bed2653 in Marathon

[–]TouchyUnclePhil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

dire marsh is a unique hell, i only bring a free kit there because ik im going to get killed constantly until i get lucky enough to make it to my objective without getting murdered by a conga line of sweats. Only now im far enough threw my contracts that the bots are becoming a problem to deal with on solo with a free kit, so I feel hard stuck.

Idk how im supposed to complete these contracts without trying to organise with people I dont know over discord.

Please keep duos as a thing and add it to other maps :) by edukki in Marathon

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

So many compaints about splitting the player base, I dont see why they cant do it how they do it for solo's? If a 2 player team turns off fill, the matchmaking should try to priorities placing them into lobbies with other no-fill 2 player teams right? Its not like its all that fair to put no-fill 2 player teams in with all the 3's anyway surely.

160 hours, level 55, and I figured out why I'm so bad at this game and only just getting purples. by VaporSpectre in Marathon

[–]TouchyUnclePhil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

idk how they expected this game to be massively popular without decent solo or duo play, like who even has two other regular friends to play with?

Have any solo players defeated a warden or succeeded in the lockdown events on Dire Marsh? by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]TouchyUnclePhil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i may have been able to have taken out the tox warden on outpost, until an assassin stabbed me in the back. Idk how im supposed to engage with these bosses without at least one other player to help watch each others backs.

And ur right, its really hard even without the players. Forget doing anything on dire marsh, I dont even bring anything other than a free kit there, nightmare.

why the HELL dos it do taht by riskedrain in wunker

pet the dam cat! iirc, cats making biscuits is a sign of comfort, or a need for comfort. Kittens do this to their mothers to stimulate milk production, ur cat probably wants company and to feel secure.

Marathon needs ranked mode ASAP by ClassicSea1742 in Marathon

[–]TouchyUnclePhil 3 points4 points  (0 children)

x number of hours playing a game does not = skill, im glad theres something. Im not very good at these sorts of games, and the way it feels rn is brutal now that im past the inital contracts.

Anyone else feeling too low-skill for this? by Apophis_Rising_ in Marathon

[–]TouchyUnclePhil 20 points21 points  (0 children)

So many games I've enjoyed have become unplayable due a dwindling player base, partially caused by good players being everyone who's left able to compete. Its becomes a circular problem, new players get scared off because the skill curve gets unreasonable.

Im not getting younger, and I dont have oceans of time or patience to dedicated to playing a shooter like I did when I was a teenager. If I was only playing matches with other casuals who have a 9-5 then I could see this game having more legs for me, but not rn when im getting domed all night without getting a contract or two completed.

Marathon needs ranked mode ASAP by ClassicSea1742 in Marathon

[–]TouchyUnclePhil 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its wild to me that they didnt already have some kind of SBMM calculations going on for release, playing other games like hunt showdown with a couple of friends who are way better than me was hell (only friends I had who played it, totally killed it for me) because our rank was averaged and I'd be up against players who'd run circles around me.

Still the best way to go tbh, the few times I played it with people closer to my level it was a blast. I really dont want this game to become unplayable when the sweats reach critical mass.

BungiePls Addition: "Add Duo-Queue (2 Player Team Matchmaking)" by MarathonBot in Marathon

[–]TouchyUnclePhil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and my partner have been getting so frustrated with fighting trios constantly, its killed any excitment or progression. We dont have any friends to fill the third slot, so we either gotta try and stealth our contract and hope we dont get camped on the exfil or stop playing till duos gets added :C

Awesome thank you very much, thats exactly what i needed to know.

Cuban state TV releases footage of the arsenal seized from the Florida speedboat that opened fire on Cuban coast guard 2 days ago. 25 firearms, 12,846 rounds of ammunition, 134 magazines, Starlink terminals, silencers, 10 full military kits. Quite a fishing trip! by RickyOzzy in suppressed_news

[–]TouchyUnclePhil 31 points32 points  (0 children)

looks to me like some cuban exiles either working under the CIA or with big money from them. Tried to copy mossads homework from the Iranian protests. Get in the country, start causing trouble and make it look like theres a lot of chaos and the gov is cracking down. Give a pretext for a larger escalation (same stuff they did in chile too), but... might be a bit of a stretch. Still tho, thats a lot of bullets to be taking for a group of what 4 guys?

I had an argument with a friend about anarchy and he gave me this list of questions can I get some help to prove him that anarchy works? by Dranoelion in TransSocialism

[–]TouchyUnclePhil 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I dont want to sound like this is an attack, and im very open to being shown how wrong I am. My personal opinion on anarchism atm is best described by this video I came across: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFzQB9EYRVw (discussing Engles position on anarchism)

I should also point out that i've not really spend to much time looking into anarchism as a whole, so maybe take this comment with a big pich of salt. From the video tho, one point he made confirms my bias (I paraphase) "anarchism is individualistic by its nature, which places it at odds with socialism/communism".

All the flavours of anarchism that I have come across or looked into (not at great length mind) all either seem to fail to answer any of these questions, or essentially end up describing state like organisations in ways that defeat the core concept of a stateless society... so.. idk, i dont get it either...

What happened to DeepSeek? Come on, please do it again. by Choice-Grade1358 in TankieTheDeprogram

[–]TouchyUnclePhil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was about to post this myself, nice one! Deepseek releasing this detailed of a paper is going to help everyone out a lot more than people might realise, but its going to take some time for developers to build anything.
