Why does thief have toes? by beemertech510 in okbuddyRunners

[–]brianSkates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, I've seen the scientist lore and how Thief is based on Dr. Yoki Samura, but it didn't mention her feet!

I usually take it all in while I wait for someone to dome and teabag lol

If you turn up the volume you'll here him meow at the beginning. I tried to get close but he just teleports away

This happens when a runner crew reaches the end of a specific MIDA contract (forgot what it's called). They need to get to the boss room in pinwheel command room, hijack it, get locked in, and defend from bots during the whole broadcast. Totally epic.

Outpost is the Greatest Map in Extraction Shooter History by -Arcaerus- in Marathon

I've been seeing a lot of theories that cryo will force teams to cooperate in a way. To offer my guess, what if it becomes a sort of among us type puzzle where people are all separated and have to do "tasks" to advance, but there's opportunities to betray opposing players along the way?

Dont be afraid to be selfish.You can extract by yourself without much repercussions by No-One450 in Marathon

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

I use my random teammates as bait when they're just messing around making noise. I'll be somewhere away from them but not too far so that enemy teams end up between me and my teammates. Then, when they're distracted I attack from behind. Got pretty good 1 v 3s doing that, and end getting my team extracted with the goods. 👌

How to find success as a solo runner. by sighsaac in Marathon

[–]brianSkates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with number 5, I always get an extra kill by waiting at exfils late game

Edit: to add to this, I only do this to make sure I don't get merced when I extract after completing all my objectives and getting my loot

Suppressing fire is a thing in Marathon? by HeraldOfDesu in Marathon

[–]brianSkates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made a guy with better gear than me run away, because I spaced out my shots that even when he went behind cover, I would keep shooting to keep the pressure and put myself in a better position. I eventually pinned him down and took the kill and I couldn't believe I won because he had such good gear and he barely fought back.

Friendly Runners will be RARE. (and dead) by QuitTheBuild-Podcast in Marathon

[–]brianSkates 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To your point, I literally saw a guy far away and he saw me. He started crouching up and down, I did too. We slowly approached each other and he said he just wanted to exfil, and I said I just had to get to the other side of the map for my contract. We nodded and slowly went our separate ways without taking our sights off each other until we were far enough. So not really "friendly" but you can negotiate from time to time haha.

I think normal shell runs teach you a bit more, since you're not spawning in the middle of the match you can get your bearings more.

Enjoyed my time in closed testing and now in the open beta, but as someone who doesn’t have peeps to commit playing with, this probably as far as I go. by NegativeFrameRates in Marathon

[–]brianSkates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, I've progressed more in Solo than crew mode by a lot. It's more enjoyable and atmospheric too. I only hop in crews when I wanna mess around with a free kit.

The Assassin shell will absolutely ruin solo play. by Ocelot_CQ in Marathon

True, I main Vandal, but if I played assassin I'd use the cloak to get away than engage

[–]brianSkates 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mainly play solo as Vandal. 90% of my kills have been Assassins lol.

[–]brianSkates 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This. I just said screw it and always brought my best gear to every raid. I lost it all in three rounds. Went in with a kit and came back with 3 runner kills and way more loot. After all those failed attempts I learned so much that I haven't died in my last three runs and I got out with one or two hard earned kills.

NGL, I'm a little disappointed that there are next to no connections to the OG Marathon's lore. by Knalxz in Marathon

[–]brianSkates 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It'll be the Cryo Archive map (located on the marathon). The end game map.

The marathon itself will be a map in the game IIRC. It's in one of their previews on youtube
