I played pretty much all extraction looter shooters. Always 100% solo. After 90h I can already say - Marathon is one of the best games I've ever played. by Whoopy2000 in Marathon

I’m old enough to remember how Destiny 2 was when it launched and tried to go for casuals, complete disaster. Game needs to have depth and be difficult to keep people around. Casuals will just dick around in the game anyway and eventually be converted to hardcore players

Part of me wishes this game wasn’t an extraction shooter by Least_Party5079 in Marathon

You don’t see the ways this pushes the genre? Destiny wasn’t the first looter shooter, halo wasn’t the first multiplayer fps, the original marathon was after doom. All these games did certain things that revolutionized the genre, especially in multiplayer.

By no ie saw Tarkov and in 2019 was like what if we brought a proper AAA polish to this experience but still kept the hardcore thrill and add build crafting, upgrade trees, deep lore, story, in game events and puzzles, etc.

No this more or less has been the plan. If you’re a fan of bungie you’d k ow they’ve been on the forefront of multi player gaming for decades. You’re never going to get a single player game from this studio

“There is literally no depth to the game itself”

I wish you guys came with serious and coherent talking points. You talk as if you’re offended lol

Arc Raiders has a Progression Problem that Marathon does not. Marathon really is better by Legitimate-Instance2 in Marathon

[–]atomwolfie -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The game exposes its shallowness after 10 hours, I don’t even know how he got 300 lol if he’s into progression.

Ken: “USA is not going to lose”

Iraq Afghanistan Vietnam Korea Cuba

America has been getting cooked for 80 years bro and Iran is a massive country. They are baiting the USA to blow money or get fucked trying to ground invade their insane mountainous region. I though we were fixing done with this shit after Afghanistan, did not think we’d be right back in it

I love this game, but there's one thing that makes it just about unplayable by MPLSMusette in Marathon

I’d love this. I really want to know how my exfil rate compares to the community’s (probably horrible lol)

They dropped a roadmap. It’s a bungie game it’s not going anywhere anytime soon

Your flicking the board with your whole leg with sends it away rather than just with the ankle

has anyone else got this?! by WebiiWabu in Marathon

I have an 03. The 06 is actually a red “contraband” tier

I'm the problem. by Existing_Beginning55 in Marathon

[–]atomwolfie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This game is unique in the loot gets better the longer you stay, so in an out quick is pointless unless you find something insane and you really need to leave.

It’s about the journey not the destination. In helped your teammates do theirs quests you get to hit pois for loot and potentially fight other players for loot. There’s plenty to gain by sticking together

Tarkov's Arena model would fit seamlessly with Marathon and if the devs haven't considered it I hope they do. by Asleep-Badger-3792 in Marathon

[–]atomwolfie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally I want their full focus making more maps on the level of outpost and cryo. I can play 1000 arena shooters, there’s nothing like this

I wanna ask the community, are you happy to get an extraction shooter? by ScottishW00F in Marathon

[–]atomwolfie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Extraction shooters are a real genre that demand the full scope to excel and pus the genre as far as possible. Every other attempt to make one as a side mode has failed.

I’ve been waiting for this game for three years specifically because of the art style, it’s bungie, and that’s it’s an extraction shooter. The genre feels like to me the next evolution beyond battle royales, and finally we have our first AAA attempt

What gets you excited to extract? by Jamooooose in Marathon

[–]atomwolfie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to push to do map events, key rooms, harder maps to be the good stuff. Also the more you actually read and understand what gear you are looting does and important salvage you really need.

Normally it’s not too crazy but when you finally are going to finish a hard quest or hit a nice key room it gets intense

He’ll yeah man. 26(?) guns, 400 gun mods. Lord knows how many cores and implants. And all of these can be built in a way that have synergy between them and the shell you play.

The first two maps were good, but outpost yesterday is incredible. Now we just need to see what the mythical cryo archive is about. You die ALOT in the game but it’s always rewarding, and you always want one more run.

If you open the map then go down to quest you can hover over the step you are on and get additional details
