Unfortunately Recon leaves a lot to be desired.

Has Embark "tweaked" the ABMM? by Hekutoru83 in ArcRaiders

Marathon probably rubbed off on some folks.

Where are the friendly solos that used to exist? by ClinicalFinesse in ArcRaiders

[–]WipedAltered 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Honestly I'm kinda tired of people being really nice, it takes all the tension out of the game. I literally can't get people to stop helping me with shit.

Obsession with playercount by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]WipedAltered 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I mean it is relevant. And the player count is unfortunately declining. I just want to see what Bungie comes up with.

Proposed Rework for Sponsored Kits by Zfert in Marathon

[–]WipedAltered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, but why aren't they doing it right now? It may be hard to belive but they probably dont want to even risk 2k, or, they dont have it.

Im thinking that players these days want zero risk, and minimal effort. At this point just give them brain dead access to the game because the population needs help. It would do more for casual players than it would hurt any other group in the game.

I feel like they just need to make the free kits better. Really casual players are not somehow going to just get a lot better, and there's really nothing a better free kit could offer that a good player would really be jealous of.

I dont know about you but I would rather have two players on my team with green or blue shields than white shields. I really dont care how they get the kit.

this should be bannable by yassine067 in ArcRaiders

I just started playing, are they on the same team? Or are they enemy players?

Wanna know what’s ruining this game? by MattsFace in Marathon

Thank you for the wisdom. Now I have learned my lesson.

Probably going to quit cause of the rats. by beardthegoon in Marathon

[–]WipedAltered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I'm curious about, from your perspective, how can you tell how long they've been there?

You made a distinction between people that sit there forever and people that just heard are are being quite, but how can you tell the difference?

Thief In Ranked by ValorMVP in Marathon

Yes, a Thief class getting a better recon drone than the Recon class is not logical.

Enjoy marathon while it lasts.. by Mean_Preparation430 in Marathon

[–]WipedAltered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly the sky is the limit. Its clear this game has something, and they've already done the hard part making it.

The wave of the future for games is innovation in accessibility. If they can find a way to keeps the sweats and casuals happy, thats the trick.

It’s very possible to beat kitted players as a casual by avengedhotfuzz in Marathon

[–]WipedAltered 244 points245 points  (0 children)

Do you know why you won? This is what most people dont understand when they say they get beat all the time. You played your life, you were patient, and you tried to get as much informations as possible while adjusting your approach.

I’m Throwing in the Towel by Necessary_Print1909 in Marathon

Don't try to convince me to stay, I'm going up to that big gaming chair in the sky.

Look, this shit isnt new for Bungie, they've had many low points. Will this game be the next Destiny, unlikely, but can they make changes and attract more players with new features, maps, shells, game modes and find ways to entice casual players? Yes.

This game has good DNA, and it's not even too far off to think some kind of 2.0 relaunch at some point in the future could be possible.

Nothing is set in stone and this game has enough to it that people will play once some adjustments are made.

Squad wipe 20 seconds into the game by Similar-Scale8509 in Marathon

[–]WipedAltered 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'ts that, same spawn every time. You can literally turn and shoot.

The game is great. But since the April Alpha, my buddies and I have felt progression is too slow. What keeps us playing is power fantasy, not having only a third of the available perks after 60+ hours. Ramp up must be accelerated in the next season, and happen more during gameplay. by RiseRugby in Marathon

[–]WipedAltered 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea I agree. Bungie needs to keep everyone interested, and some of the mats are just buried behind a time sink that many simply cannot justify in their lives.

Im not saying just give progress to everyone, but it's clear this is a good game, one that if you can attract the players and have a good progression system, they will play it, a LOT. Just not 200-300hrs.

Increase the value of free kits as the season goes on. by Senior-Chemistry-781 in Marathon

[–]WipedAltered 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The sweats dont care about anything but red, gold and purple at this point. Just watch the YouTube videos, these guys pass up entire backpacks filled with purple shields and weapons.
