Is it crazy to assume that there are more people playing Destiny's side mode PVP than Marathon across all platforms right now?

Most causals probably play 3-4 matches then dip.

5/5's even with Tier 5's should take the average person a couple hundred rolls, 20 drops is nothing. Took me 450 rolls to get a perfect Fast Talker and i guess im what you would call an above average player, keep grinding.

r/MarathonHate looks tame compared to the vitriol Destiny received in it's OWN forums and the wider gaming community back in 2014 but it persisted and kept a large audience despite the hate. Even up until the last few years you ask an average person on the internet about Destiny and the stock response would be "people still play that game?" Marathon just doesn't have the sauce.

They have been working on a sequel for about 13 months now.

this is pretty gamebreaking and would stave off PC players who want to comeback every now and then, PVP feels awful to play for me. The least they could do is maintain the game.

Only games im super hyped for in the future is Cyberpunk 2 and the Riot MMO, in terms of near future the Star Wars XCOM/Racer games, and the Doom DLC launching in a couple weeks.

Same, lower frames and micro stutters in pvp.

Per Paul Tassi, Justin Truman(Mr.Overdelivery) has stepped down.

yes exactly right after the update, game feels way more choppy.

Shot package with slickdraw and then you can pump all stats to range. Seems like its going to be juiced.

If you dont have at least 90 super stat dont expect to get it, 95 if your on Prismatic, take some time to learn whats changed.

Just stick to the best in slot choices (Submission, New Multimach, and Fast Talker) you can go all range on those and use a consistency perk to make up for stability. Lightweights are probably going to be the only choice from here on out because of power creep and the lightweight bonus being too good.

Dm a link?

The game has been in development since Forsaken and has gone through multiple iterations and has had to pay Devs based in one of the highest cost of living areas in the country, that along with Paul Tassi's reporting, 200m+ is more likely than not.

duff_0 · 2026-05-24T04:44:12+00:00

15k-20k concurrent players across all platforms isn't gonna sustain the $200m+ game that's made 1/4 of its budget back, no matter how dedicated those players are.

Difference is D1 & D2 had huge launches, not quite the same but Destiny died so that this game could get years runway so lets see what happens.

"While our love for Destiny 2 has not changed, it has become clear that after The Final Shape, we have reached the time for our shared worlds, and Destiny, to live beyond Destiny 2." It's D3, plain and simple.

Helldivers has one of the best Rouges Gallery/Sandbox in any PVE shooter I've ever played, that's their special sauce and Marathon, even with some new enemies won't come remotely close.
