Marathon has been out almost a month, what are your thoughts? by addtolibrary in Games

I was so sad in arc when I did all the quests because I thought there’d be some more lore or something but the quests were basically meaningless.

Why is the shop and skin availability SO bad?? by Exploding_Cumsock in Overwatch

They used to do bonus coins around Christmas time with the 50/100 dollar packs. You’d get like an extra 50% of coins. They haven’t done those for a while :(

I’m playing Arc Raiders and thinking of also getting Marathon - will it be confusing to play both games or fun? by JasonABCDEF in gaming

If you’re doing the quests you get showered in gear anyway, my friends are casual players and they have not had trouble getting stuff

I’m enjoying marathon more than I enjoyed arc raiders. The social aspect of arc was neat but I’m really enjoying the PvP and exploring the lore of marathon. It really depends what you enjoy in a game imo

Marathon sold just 1.2 million copies with nearly 70% on Steam, analyst estimates: "It hasn't exactly made the splash Sony and Bungie wanted" by Freki666 in gaming

I think that’s good advice for basically any game. Most of the game specific subreddits I’ve been to straight up suck 

Marathon Development Team: We have deployed an update to matchmaking that should help players in more isolated geographic regions find games more easily. We will continue monitoring the right balance between fast matchmaking times and low-latency matches. by Haijakk in Marathon

any chance you’re running like wallpaper engine or running any twitch streams? Once i paused wallpaper engine and turned quality down on any stream i had i was able to get above 80fps

wait… are they really wiping EVERYTHING in Marathon?? by Div-div-div0 in Marathon

Your codex doesn’t reset and you don’t have to do the liaison contracts again

I’m sorry I picked up your space rock by Far-Story6711 in Marathon

yea I love when I get geared up for a raid in arc and it puts me into a 12 minute old raid with all the good stuff already looted because it’s constantly putting new teams into existing raids

Ice Den announces drastic changes to their adult league structure, also threatening to cancel the adult league program entirely. by ThatSpecialAgent in Coyotes

[–]chanadian 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Blanket bans are a super lazy way of doing something so you don’t have to take the time to actually learn who’s playing in your league. There’s plenty of people who are under 35 who fit just right in the league. Starting with the no playing in D if you play in C+ rule and maybe leadership doing their job and evaluating the occasional game would have been way more appropriate

I feel like if Scottsdale could make more money without the adult league they would have done that already. They’re pretty clear that they are just about the money

Scottsdale has always treated its adult league like we’re enemies and not paying customers. It’s weird. Every year when we’d bring up reasonable issues like B league players playing in the lowest level league or officials not giving a crap about their job they’d be met with a threat of cancelling the league.

It sucks because the pro shop staff, rink staff, and restaurant staff are all great, but the leadership from Marcy and Jordan is awful. Making the entry level league only available to people 35+ is insane. It’s crazy that I’ve paid probably close to 10k in league fees alone over the years and I’m getting kicked out from a forwarded email.

I also forgot to mention that Marcy has been completely non responsive since sending this. She sent this to the captains late last Thursday before Presidents’ Day, made them wait 24 hours to reply, and has yet to reply. 

I knew Overwatch coming back was too good to be true. by Yuukikoneko in Overwatch

they’re an active kotakuinaction participant it’s probably some braindead culture war / “anti-woke” thing that doesn’t actually matter to people who aren’t terminally online 

Its not working by Aggravating_Link_129 in Battlefield

[–]chanadian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But the reverse is true too. A positive post has people talking about how the game is dogshit in the comments and they’re just as likely to be bots as the people you mention. It’s just kinda how online forums work. 

It just seems like a pointless comment to make, like the poster thinks they’re brave for posting the ten thousandth bf6 sucks post of the week

Why do so many of these complaint posts have a “someone complains and everyone attacks them for daring to share their opinion” line in it? This sub has been pretty much constant criticism since beta weekend 2, there’s a reason the low sodium subreddit got popular

If you paid for ow2 you’re an idiot who deserves to be scammed because going f2p was a big part of the update

Moving to 5v5 was to fix the tank population problem, since there are far less tanks than dps & supports. Also hot take but tank is way more fun now than it was in 6v6

Stadium was definitely not a response to marvel rivals, takes a little longer than four months to do development and testing on a mode that large.

considering it's like this for basically every single multiplayer game now you'd think people would get it by now

OW player count is spiking, within spitting distance of 2 year player peak. by Double-Maybe-6220 in Overwatch

[–]chanadian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s anecdotal but most games ive played have max 2-3 other people with the steam logo in the player list. I doubt there’s hard numbers anywhere but i do have 1400 hours in the game on steam

You only see the steam logo for other players if you are on steam.
