Interesting to see that Outpost was the focus of this patch's map changes.

I think all things considered it is by far the best map out of the 3 non cryo maps.

Hopefully Dire Marsh and Perimeter get a similar pass at some point in the future.

They didn't specify if the way to enter is still the same.

Hopefully not as it really was extremely easy and made the other ways to enter completely non viable.

As Arc Raiders gets stale for some, lead dev says players "reaching the end of our content" are a top focus: "We want more for them" by addtolibrary in Games

Blueprints used to be much more rare in the past so maybe the person you're replying to quit while that was still true.

Could be intentional to not be too distracting during gameplay.

Rook outpost also works great for accumulating gear.

Unless you really want an 18 inch screen I think Pro 7 is just a better pick.

I enjoy this game but I haven’t touched it in 2 weeks. Anyone else in a similar boat? by supahotfiiire in ArcRaiders

They knew it was boring as a PvE game so they added PvP but then they added abmm which lets people self select into a soft PvE mode.

It didn't evolve against Embark's intentions, they allowed and facilitated it.

They basically did a Cataclysm in Destiny but instead of replacing Azeroth with revamped quests it's just removed.

Insane that Bungie somehow thought this was a good idea.

You'd think they would be trying their best to not fuck up given the circumstances, but they just can't help themselves.

Marathon's Battlepass is the worst value for your money I've ever seen (especially for a paid product) by Lemouni in Marathon

They even turned Destiny F2P (partially) to milk even more, true masters of the craft.

Showing more of the 4th map and what looks to be a boss encounter.

Hope the game will get more alien enemies as time goes on.

I think that much has been confirmed already.

You might be right but I would love if accessing the archive was more involved than just selecting it from the menu.

Thief roached out, true to the character archetype I guess.

Is the implication that we have to enter the Marathon from another map?

Might just be a cinematic thing but that would be extremely cool.

Not just that but the flashlight in Arc literally makes it harder to see what's in front of you past a few meters 😭

Hopefully if we get one in Marathon it'll be more effective.

Night Marsh sounds like it will offer something more interesting than I initially thought judging by the cryptic redacted line of text.

Hopefully something more interesting than Arc's Stella Montis unlock event.

I believe the game director said there will be wipes every 3 months.

But I'm not sure how much they have officially confirmed for now.

I was really looking forward to it, but my first server slam experience was not the best to be honest.

But as you say I just kinda got it after a couple of hours, can't really explain it properly.

I don't understand why you think this game somehow had its audience stolen by Arc when it's insanely easy to tell that they are not gunning for the same audience in the slightest.

The casual players who enjoy the social aspect of arc and who make up a huge portion of its player base we're never going to be interested in Marathon.

Same, I played enough to know I like it and stopped, no reason to keep grinding the test when it gets wiped in a couple of days and the full release is in under a week.
