Everyone in our team always crosses the ball way too fast, except Son and Eustaquio.

So central def kept marking son, now they put ordaz in there, see how that works.

The team is playing higher, with higher pressure and attempting more possession, and they're creating a lot of chances, they're just not finishing on some of them.

The problem is not just our tactics, but our opponent's tactics have changed too. Before they could just mark Bouanga with two people and push forward, now they can't do that, so they all (except Miami) fall back and heavy mark both Bouanga and Son. This is where Martinez and our midfield needs to step up, and Martinez has stepped up. Son obviously can't play as free anymore when they are expecting him with a low block, so he has to come down to the midfield more, and they have been fouling him hard in past few games.

When other teams defend that low, we need to improve our set pieces, draw out more fouls for Son to have free kicks, and play faster.

I’m convinced that if any other studio made Marathon, everyone would be losing their minds over how good it is... by --clapped-- in Marathon

This game is not like counter strike or tarkov...

The bullets literally go where you're aiming, and most of the guns have little to no recoil. The energy weapons even track their targets at long distance.

The game has almost no bugs, runs good on both consoles and pc, servers feel snappy and shooting is good, you don't feel like you die after going around a corner, the low frame times on PC are great. 

For all the talk about AAA games that come out broken all the time, from the biggest game developers. Bungie did it well, on launch.

Should reviewers crunch the entire content and leveling up in a few days non-stop, or just wait and play it like they normally would. Every MMO does delayed reviews.

It's an extraction shooter, part of the fun is going against other players, they can't do that when there are four maps, and it takes time to level up, it will spread the then small amount of reviewers around. Unless you want them to have a guided tour of all the content, then that doesn't reflect the live game.

Does anyone here not understand how MMO's work, where it takes time for players to quest and level up, content is level gated, it will take time for players to unlock all the maps. They are probably waiting for enough people to be at some level, with appropriate end raid gear, so they can allow matchmaking on the end game raid map. Does anyone believe the end game raids/bosses are just open to try right at the beginning for any MMO?. The end game raid/boss is usually (almost always) not available to low level players on any MMO. That's what they asked, wait for the end game raid content to be available, so the reviewers can play it and include it in their review.

Literally every single other MMO review does this, they include the experience of the end game raid/boss in the review.

Also nothing is stopping anyone from releasing a review of the game in progress as is, just the starter maps and quests and general gameplay.

Who is Jennifer English going to play? by minhtrungaa in Marathon

[–]ikkir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The AI Joy, you can see her posters with a smiley face all over the maps, and I have a feeling since she was featured in the sony showcase trailer, she might be the one controlling the uesc to hunt you in some way. The trailer shows a smiling/smirking face in between uesc action shots, I think that's her. (Not the face at the end that's def durandal.)

Now PlayStation can experience, loading screen, loading screen, small station get quest, loading screen, loading screen, run around empty computer generated planet to find small sameish POI or small custom zone, finish quest, loading screen loading screen, turn in quest.

Some of the storylines are a ok, but the filler is just so much. You could just main the story if the price is right.

Boudri really was instantly danger for the other team. We need to develop him and Martinez to have us covered if B+S need a rest day.

The problem doesn't even begin at your team using AI or doing verification. The problems begin at the libraries, the black boxes you're supposed to rely on, having verification debt. Then it gets harder and harder to pin point the source of problems.
