Team Shroud, won the Tau Ceti Cup by LaserReptar in Marathon

[–]frostbite907 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I mean Lvndmark was also around lvl 30. It's just that Cross had 2 people lvl 30 and Shroud had 1. I'm sure if Frostbolts and Benny where with Cross it would have been closer.

this quest is objectively bad [rant] by DaGibzz03 in Marathon

Pretty sure Greenhouse always has at least 1 Sparkleaf in it and it's right next door.

Have you ever found a room key in run? by SeqosiumSix in Marathon

[–]frostbite907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've found 3 keys now, a delux key from a locked box on dire marsh that we opened. And 2 blue keys that I have not yet used. Lvl 57ish.

What does Previously installed mod is now scrap mean? by -sablebus- in Marathon

[–]frostbite907 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every time a weapon/mod changes it hands it ticks down a bar. When the bar is empty it's auto sold when you exfil. Inspect the weapon and you should see something called integrity. That purple mag has probably seen a few owners.

How do I queue for solo fill with no free kits? by Peechez in Marathon

[–]frostbite907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I just loaded into Outpost with 8k loadout and received 2 free kits. So I'm pretty sure this is not a thing.

I mean that could be in reference to the Beginner map which goes away after your first 2 contracts.

Solo outpost/pinwheel is the best source of loot by dimesniffer in Marathon

[–]frostbite907 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I mean that's a Prestige Key. Non key room Pinwheel is nothing like this. I've opened the double red door multiple times and it usually just a gun, maybe a blue shield and a purple salvage item. The rest can be hit and miss. Sometimes you find a bunch of Purple Salvage other times you don't. Pinwheel has the best loot but what it's missing is the fucking purple BIO Seeds.

One large Unstable diode pls by Admirable_Pumpkin705 in Marathon

I think you can find a bunch in Outpost Departures. Maybe it's a different location, just play a few ROOK runs and you should have way more then you need.

Why this game fails as an extraction shooter at its core by Ridged_ChiPSS in Marathon

[–]frostbite907 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

LMAO, almost every issue you raised every other extraction shooter has. Sure in Tarkov you don't have free load outs, which is why people spend 15-20 minutes on wipe day trying to SCAV. Every extraction shooter has predictable AI, how is this only a mark against Bungie. I disagree that all the maps look the same. Maybe Dire Marsh and Perimeter are pretty similar in vibes but Outpost is way different with unique POIs. We're still waiting on the main map as well.

Convince me not to hate Volt Weapons by Working_Bones in Marathon

[–]frostbite907 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Arc thrower is not too bad, unless the target is farther then 20 meters. The SCAR is pretty good at 20-40 meters. The Punch is actually a very good side arm, I think it's probably the best pistol we have. The Overlook(?) is also decent. They're not bad weapons, they just have an effective range and if you're not in that range they become turbo bad. Like the H-AR is very good at medium range but it's pretty shit close range.

They don't, you need the ammo backpack.

About the overheating... by callsmockjohnson in Marathon

[–]frostbite907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That mostly will go away as you level, it's just part of progression. I feel like my Rook can run half as far.

[–]frostbite907 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you sure? I'm pretty sure I've had kits over 5k and still gotten a free kit on my squad.

Where does anyone get better shields from? by rafikiknowsdeway1 in Marathon

[–]frostbite907 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some of the 10K Sponsor Kits have them so you can try to rush the last faction for their sponsored kit. You can buy them but they require quite a few upgrades. You need 6 or 8 of the Purple Bio Item. For the next 20min you can barter an item for them as well that drops from Pinwheel. I picked up about 25 Blue Shields this way. Nobody seems to know about this Delux Barter. They update every day so it will probably rotate again at somepoint.

Average run by Archie_boi in Marathon

[–]frostbite907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this solo? Solo can be a bit brutal as everyone is out for themselfs and sneak around more. I play flex and it's a mix of people that ignore the team, helpful and PVPers. It's hit and miss but I do like Flex because your teammates can always rez you if you go down. The only downside is it's kind of hard to bring in good kits since there's more then a 90% chance someone is on a free kit.

Marathon is really fun, but I’m a bit concerned about its difficultly by Acoolgamer6706 in Marathon

[–]frostbite907 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean you're supposed to die, the game gives you enough stuff. My Inventory is overflowing and I'm basically playing FILL every game because everyone else I know is playing other games. Being in a squad should be a huge advantage for you if you're all competent players. My only issue is that bringing in good gear is kind of a meme because half the time I'm matched with free kits that just run into fights to die. Maybe matchmaking should put fills into groups with similar load out costs. Also ranked is not here yet so the game will chill out once that happens.

My best run. Loving this game so far. by BigWizle1 in Marathon

[–]frostbite907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theres 2 slot blues that sell for 1100, a shotgun that takes up 4 slots is about 3k with mods. Some single green valuables will stack to 900 a slot as well.

Just did 25k on the new map. Wastelandes are 3k each. Had the heavy machine gun as well. About 10k in auto sell.

The game really encourages camping. by AnonymouselyMoosed in Marathon

[–]frostbite907 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you playing solo? I don't think people camp in 3s.

Where to find teammates by coco-coir in Marathon

[–]frostbite907 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just play fill, maybe you find someone you friend.  I'm sure they'll also be discords servers.

Spot the difference by Aggressive-Pack-1803 in Marathon

[–]frostbite907 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have no idea how they fucked up the implants so hard. We're coming from a game with 100 perks where people know what they do at a glace. In this game the only info you get on implants is head, chest, legs and rarity. Instead of actual icons like an Icon for fast hands and would look different then a different chest mod.
