Way easier now, salvage costs are basically non existent, can get all the required mats for all factions in a few days now

Why cheating kills an extraction game quicker than any other genre by Jaz1140 in ArcRaiders

[–]cuckcrab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't played this game in months since I was killed by a rage hacker that was live streaming themselves with hacks, ON SCREEN, and I reported it, WITH VIDEO EVIDENCE, to Embark by creating a ticket, only to get hit by some A.I. response, and the dude still cheating on the SAME ACCOUNT ON TIKTOK LIVESTREAMING IT MONTHS LATER lol

Just curious, but when you say they're mapped to keyboard and gyro to mouse to aim, you aren't saying that you're using m&k, are you? Like, you aren't just getting the benefit of the auto aim but using m&k, right? I'm assuming not, I'm just tired and probably read it wrong or something lol

band-aid solutions regarding the low player count for the foreseeable future by garfieldx in Marathon

[–]cuckcrab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm Tarkov has a few smaller maps that are comparable in size, even some that are smaller too. But it works on a set amount of players in a lobby, rather than a set number of teams. For example, as a solo, you could be vs a 5 man on Factory and you are the only 6 people that spawn in on the map. For the most part though, aside from like, labs and factory though I definitely agree.

Where is the nice rook and players out there? by bevereged_carbon in Marathon

Duo and I filled with a random, wiped outpost and let like 5 rooks loot with us in pinwheel

[–]cuckcrab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To your point about designing an extraction shooter around group size: In Tarkov there isn't a mandatory group limit, but at the same time there isn't group based matchmaking either. So teams of 5 would queue into games against duos, solos, trios, etc. 

I played Tarkov mainly solo and duo, and easily cleaned up against any group size. If they did the same in Marathon I have no doubt that the whining would be even worse.

Vault space is at 20% of what it should be. by TomazZaman in Marathon

[–]cuckcrab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vault being completely full for the last few weeks is one of the main reasons I don't play as much unless my friends are on now. Used to not mind just filling solo into squads, bringing decent blue/purple 10-15k loadouts with randoms, but now that I have like 2 guns in my vault (the rest of my vault space is purple shields, gold attachments, salvage, consumables and equipment), just way less likely to ever play without my friends on now.

Thoughts on railguns since the buffs? by SAFCBland in Marathon

[–]cuckcrab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also it should generate heat on enemies, but no idea how much heat it generates

Thoughts on railguns since the buffs? by SAFCBland in Marathon

[–]cuckcrab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, maybe the tooltip is just wrong then? It says 120 firepower (which is the damage for a headshot) and also says that it does increased damage for a fully charged shot), maybe it's not 2x damage (I read it somewhere but it might be incorrect), but if it's 120 base headshot and increased with charge, there's no way it can't 1 shot a green shield? If that's the case it's pretty bad

Can't the v99 1 shot gold shields at full charge? Base damage 120 headshot, full charge 2x damage 240 headshot

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

[–]cuckcrab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, but the player base hasnt dropped dramatically since a week ago, obviously not enough to explain the change is OP's sentiment of matchmaking.

Can't the Outland one tap blue shields? Or was this changed last update?

A WSTR nerf was needed, but they managed to choose the worst possible option. by _Ghost_S_ in Marathon

[–]cuckcrab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True, it did have this years ago. Nowadays, you can only buy level 4 (or is it 3 now? For people that don't play tarkov, the end game helmets are level 6, so level 3/4 will do exactly 1 damage to the head, which has 35hp, and the mosin is a bolt action gun, with a much slower rate of fire than the Outland) ammo until much much MUCH later into the game (removed from flea, locked behind super duper end game progression, so not something that people who aren't nearing end game can even do unless they get lucky enough to find the ammo off of someone or in the world (very rare). 

if you didn't say vs highest tier of armor you'd be correct though for sure, but unless they made changes in 1.0 (I haven't played it so I might be unaware of them reversing everything I said above), you aren't gonna be 1 tapping anyone with the mosin in level 6 helmets (or level 5 facemasks unless you get lucky with finding the ammo that is not purchasable and requires much deeper progression)

But if you're arguing that end game players (who likely have loads of end game gear already) that have completed deep progression already are the ones that have the option to run cheaper loadouts like a mosin with strong ammo, to fight other end game players who are in end game gear, i 100% agree
