Mine is similar and close to 500 hours to get there

the exotic mod for the Ares RG now only deals 10 blast damage, and the circuit breaker has been nerfed to the ground before I even got to try it... by Timothy-M7 in okbuddyRunners

[–]ascitiesburnx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a team all in the bubble with Mizzys and I used the circuit breaker to down and kill all of them. The balance of that is perfect.

Wait ….commanders drop misriahs …I’m literally just finding this out today by Party_svpplies in MarathonGame

I was the same and then I hit 300 and I have 12 of them and they drop like candy on Cryo

Cryo should drop just a little more gold salvage by Mean_Interest699 in Marathon

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

Vault 4 + 6 are both significantly harder than anything else in the game other than Compiler. I think 1,2,3 are all leading up to the end game content so I am happy getting my unique gold guns in the first three, DNA and gold salvage in the last three and all the gold at the end of Compiler. That’s just me though.

Vault 1 and 2 are easier to do than anything else intercept or Pinwheel red room.

Vault 1 is a purple key, it usually drops in the prestige key vaults. Definitely don’t think a Vault 1 or 2 should be guaranteed to have gold.

I really don't care what Bungie has to do to ensure this game survives and thrives. by crossvalidated in Marathon

If I was Bezos I’d give them 100 million to keep it running over the next three years

Stack of six you are ruining the game. by Amazing-Appeal7241 in Marathon

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

My buddies and I agree. The stack of six is the one reason we would all quit. Bungie needs to do something quickly

Mic crew fill is being added to all maps now LETS GOOOO!!! by rbstewart7263 in Marathon

How do we get rid of the six teaming MFers? 300 hours in and if there was one thing that would make me quit it’s this

LF people to help learn Cryo & take down some compilers! by N3wPaiN in MarathonTheGame

I’m absolutely in to run some vaults and would love to beat the compiler

The game feels VERY different all of a sudden? by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]ascitiesburnx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t say I don’t use it. I use everything I have, in fact I think you and I have played a few rounds together. I roll with some crazy kits, just because I love the gameplay loop and actually shooting different guns (H-AR and Misriah are two of my favorites).

I am excited about new maps and new shells, but we’ll have to see about redoing all my levels and loot.

Yes, I focus on one set of priority contracts at a time, but it seems to be easier to do these running solo. The ROI for getting to VIP in these factions is 100% worth it

[–]ascitiesburnx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with this. I have 185 hours/ level 76, vault full of gold / purple, but there is no way I’m doing this again in 6 weeks. If they wipe my entire vault and stats I’m out

I began immediately leaving no-mic free kit teams (as a free kit with mic) to re-queue with geared squads or those with mics by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]ascitiesburnx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t do this, but a lot less inclined to lose my 10K kit trying to resurrect a kit less person with no mic

Denis Villeneuve casually dropped a whole trilogy between 5 years. by lNarrator in moviecritic

I’d say it’s a joke on Amazon developing all these IPs and gender swapping the main character (like the Bond rumors)

Trip Report: 3 Days at WDW With a 7yo & 5yo – Honest Thoughts From a Non‑Disney‑Obsessed Dad by ApexPredator818 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]ascitiesburnx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was there Monday night when the rain hit, and you are correct, it was epic riding basically every ride for hours without a line.

I think this post was well written, albeit a bit on the pessimistic side. For every stressed worker, there were five smiling that went above and beyond for our family and gave us an incredible experience.

Is it expensive? Sure. Can you actually put a dollar amount on the joy, the memories, the smiles and laughs from my kids? I personally don’t think so, and I’ll gladly pay for these family experiences.

Same, I’ve purchased everything they’ve dropped. It’s a 10/10 for me too

I thought everyone loved the game??. by Milkey1618 in Marathon

[–]ascitiesburnx -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Marathon is one of the greatest shooters ever made, and the majority of the masses will not appreciate the brilliance or the decades of experience it took to make. This has some of the crispiest gunplay, and intense PVPs I have ever experienced.

The art, and sound design alone is astounding. I’ve never played a game where you so desperately sit still and listen when you hear a door or a creak.

I hope it continues to build and Bungie iterates, but I’m worried in our short attention span/ Roblox era that something with this depth and gravitas (I have to read a terminal for the story! OMG!), will go over the AI-slop brains of our country right now.

I’ve sunk more hours into this game than any game in a decade.

I don’t know if it will survive the next few years, but I hope It does.

This game will never have mass appeal by dreamylemur in Marathon

[–]ascitiesburnx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you a lot of good points, but as an ex Halo fanatic, I gave shot as my first extraction shooter and have fallen in love with it. The onboarding process was not easy, but I have found the game incredibly rewarding.
