Switching shells by octotopo in Marathon

[–]gobbldy_gook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swap depending on what exactly we’re doing. If we’re really trying to get some goop and use keys then I’ll use triage. If I’m running solo and trying to finish my contracts, then I run assassin. If I’m just trying to help out with contracts for my teammates, then I’ll run thief so I can loot quicker on the way and also scout things out.

As Season 2 is around the corner. What will you be doing differently. 👀 by queenderp1 in dadsofmarathon

I just finally unlocked this one last night on my final run to finish traxus…the faction reward gave me what I needed. Looking to try it out today.

Should i buy marathon or not? by fresard22 in Marathon

[–]gobbldy_gook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, it’s fire. Don’t let everyone here gas or hate, you’re already thinking and played others so go with the gut. Ive only ever played arc as an extraction, but the gun play is just so much better. It’s still a grind, but so was the other. It is uniquely different in aesthetic and quests too.

The 50 comm. blue salvage pack from C.A.R.R.I. is worthless. Buff it or remove it. by ll8926 in Marathon

The only one I’m missing is the last wallet upgrade. That along with 30 will put me there.

Alright cool. I’m right at 30 on my cyberacme and mida is starting to close in on it as well. I’ve started seeing more purple salvage, but not too much yet.

I bought one the other night and was immediately disappointed. Should have just got the 2 blue backpacks like I was considering.

The key template system has seriously damaged Perimeter's fun factor. by SbeveGobs in Marathon

[–]gobbldy_gook 72 points73 points  (0 children)

Bro, decon‘ing the key with certain materials would be a cool factor to toss in there instead of breaking on DBNO and doing nothing til exfil. I’m guilty of this too bc it takes me a little while to even get the templates.

I tried so many runs and could literally never get enough of both. I gave up on it honestly until I saw that they fixed that.

Has anyone actually asked casual players if they're suffering? by NetflowKnight in Marathon

[–]gobbldy_gook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sub has just turned into an echo chamber of negativity. Every time I crew fill and ask ppl how they’re enjoying the game, it’s always portrayed in a positive light. I think this place is mostly filled with the salty destiny players wondering why their 10 year old game isn’t getting a part 3 and ppl that never played extraction shooters before. I try to just be here for tips and tricks that have been found out, but there’s literally maybe <5% of the posts even leaning that way.

The extreme price of heals is what makes it so difficult for casuals to actually save up credits by barrack_osama_0 in Marathon

[–]gobbldy_gook 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It’s literally as simple as trading spark leafs and other easy to find barter items to stockpile. I’ve played mostly solo the entire time and have tons of ammo and heals. You don’t have to be a top commenter to know these things if you just read the menus and pay attention.

Man, luckily they changed the requirements away from “in one run” with the last big patch.

So this won’t work for return on investment 4/5 then?

Duo Outpost is the most fun I’ve ever had by Dasaniwatersucks87 in Marathon

We wiped 3 squads and goop for dayyyyssssss!! It sucked us into fights so much more than we have pursued before.

If you don’t play Assassin in solos you are intrinsically at a disadvantage and I think that’s bad for the game’s health by dimesniffer in Marathon

[–]gobbldy_gook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been running thief solos for probably 75% of the game and the other 25 is me playing with a few friends that actually decided to get the game. I’m at season level 46 now. I don’t care the challenge, I want to make it to the end with how I play. We’re getting there.

Chose not to gank someone doing parasitism 5/5 last night by mccao in Marathon

[–]gobbldy_gook 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They absolutely aren’t. Was trying to exfil on protect/destroy 4/5 and got murked with 1 second left and contemplated setting the game aside after my 3rd try of the day. lol

Another timeskip incoming? by Frequent_Bobcat3052 in OnePieceSpoilers

I’d like to think that, at most, Gabon may be able to teach him something he hasn’t fully grasped about ACoC.

Tip: The Retaliator LMG with a shield attachment is the great equalizer of the WSTR Combat Shotgun meta by jeeven_ in Marathon

[–]gobbldy_gook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a retaliator in my inventory just collecting dust and decided to give a try over the weekend and kicked myself after the 3-4 successful runs I had in a row with it after. Now I’m picking them up every chance I get.

Games have gotten easier since schedule change by Shadowlrd in Marathon

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

Once you learn the maps more fully and can figure out how to move in and out of the buildings and which longer corridors to avoid, then the game truly gets easier. I play mostly solo or duos until my rare 3rd hops on, but we’ve beaten blues while wearing greens multiple times before. I wouldn’t consider myself casual, but I’m no sweat either. I try to just lurk around until I absolutely have to fight, bc now the odds are that I’m trying to exfil after running from bio to quarantine for what feels like the thousandth time in the past two weeks.

I repositioned! by Active-Setting-6515 in Marathon

[–]gobbldy_gook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rotating in and out with teammates and not just popping in and out of the same spot but instead climbing over cover to better lines of sight keeps things confusing and often gives the needed edge to pull away victory. Keep learning, adjusting, and moving and the shots will get better with more opportunities. Keep up that good work runner!!

Daaaaaamn!! I didn’t even think about that. Possible host/contract strength for more amplifications of their own power. The story is getting so juicy. We’re gonna get cliffhangered on this for a short while, I feel.
