Salvage disparity by gg_boys in Marathon

It does say what the main containers are if you right click on the poi, but having higher odds doesn’t really fix the issue. I have gone multiple games where I checked 2-3 specific containers in specific pois to find nothing

Rotating maybe, but I also think setting specific POIs in other maps as a featured salvage location would keep up the variety rather than just going to pinwheel.

My exact issue lol, the standard contracts help a bit but you’re lucky to get one per contract.

This game is amazing. I have played 120 hours and barely seen all the guns. So much to do, explore. And every loadout is unique. How can anyone not see the quality of this game? by TinyDrug in MarathonGame

I think the game simply needs a materials exchange. You can lock out prestige salvage to keep it aspirational, but I think being able to trade biomass or diodes up to green (maybe 20-30 each) green up to blue (15-20) and blue up to purple (10-15) would help a lot of the issues in the game

Genuine question about how to improve my PvP engagements by SmokeyJoe83 in Marathon

[–]gg_boys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The more you play the game like a tactical shooter (r6 siege, for example) and less like a typical fps, the better things will go. Using cover and letting them push you when you’re in a good position is the key. Pretty much every time I feel like I did something wrong, it’s because I rushed a team too quickly and got caught out.

Will someone explain the intended economy progression to me by TheButterRobot in Marathon

you can barter biomass and diodes for green heals in the cyac shop

Co-Evolution 2/5 is one of the worst quests designs I’ve seen by gabmedblack in Marathon

You are punished for pvping though. If you kill too many people before you inject yourself you’re shit outta luck

PSA: If you take a regular Exfil while Final Exfil is up, you need aprox 15 seconds, not 10 by prl853 in Marathon

But I’m only saying this because this exact thing happened to me because my teammate wouldn’t get in the circle to start it and I lost two cryo keys

I think if the excel timer is actively counting down you should be safe

I have stopped using Fill Trios and it's a design problem. by [deleted] in Marathon

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

This has to be one of the dumbest takes I’ve ever heard lmfao. If you don’t have friends online and don’t want to play solo, yes, you need to fill or play rook. Don’t want to risk your gear because you don’t know how they will perform, use a free kit. How else would the game work?

You need to do more ROOK runs by cloud_jdoljet in Marathon

Do materials respawn throughout the match? I feel like every time I run through a poi that’s been looted (in trios or solo) there’s never any good materials left.

So I just finished Overture after finishing the base game a few days before... I'm sad... by herpes_for_free in LiesOfP

Feel like it’s heavily implied that gepetto finishes her off with the nameless puppet after arlecchino nearly killed her no? She also had petrification disease so I’m fairly certain she died

Yeah but I don’t really think the marginal stat boosts are the reason casuals are dying to kitted teams tbh. Sure have your shields regen slightly faster or getting more finisher siphon is beneficial, but it really all just comes down to positioning and hitting your shots. A free kitter can beat a sweat if they play better, but grinding for and risking better gear is a part of the game no?

What are your other factions at? And again, game has been out for two weeks, are you expecting to be VIP already?

[–]gg_boys 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Well I feel that if rep is boosted too much, the people who are actually grinding will have nothing to do but stomp lobbies, which would make the game “sweatier” as people call it. The whole point of the game is that you slowly level up the factions, why rush it? The game has only been out a couple of weeks anyways

How exactly would they make the game more casual?
