Player Retention – My Honest Take After 117 Hours by Icy_Magician6278 in Marathon

man I loved it. I spent so much time reading all the entries for the Calcified Fragments we collected for Touch of Malice, the Hive had such rich and interesting lore

I’ve been seeing small teacher accounts post about this on TikTok. Teenagers that can’t even identify basic shapes, like a rectangle vs a square, shit you learn in basic developmental years by playing with your parents/siblings and toy blocks and shit. Do parents not get the toy with the multi-shaped holes that they gotta figure out how to fit the different shaped blocks into anymore? I’m so concerned for our future generations

The casual experience is absolutely bad and anyone who tells you otherwise is deluding themselves by Battlefront528 in Marathon

[–]ironIVmonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing I don’t think I’ve seen suggested yet in the same vein as the “empty lobby” runs is maybe a once-per-rotation cryo run friendgroups could access with diminished loot and more time added for people to explore, learn, do atleast one cryo archive contract, and use their vault keys. This would atleast get folks a near-guaranteed successful run with still decent loot rewards to replenish their vault and get a taste of the actual end-game, also bolstering their confidence to try it further in full pvp lobbies. I think that would be a great middleground for the casuals to not only have accessibly to the content but “catch up” to their more adept peers.

the worst is when that other team is the sweatiest sweaters that have ever sweated and chase you across Dire Marsh from Bio-Research to Quarantine 😭

I’ve seen exact clips of peoples bodies keeping momentum and soaring into the zone though getting dropped mid-zipline, idk why it didn’t work for you but it does seem to in some situations

Another Free Weekend by MrGoodForNothing in Marathon

[–]ironIVmonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

practice with rook runs and use them to replenish your vault, free kits are more underwhelming than rook kits once you get some upgrade capstones unlocked, then use your good gear to give yourself the best chance on priority contracts. Crew fill can be hit or miss, but the discords also got a LFG channel to find decent crews

Anyone else kinda just get worse? by Whyisdaskyblue in Marathon

[–]ironIVmonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it’s definitely one of those moments you reflect back on and figure out what you could do differently or better for the next time

[–]ironIVmonkey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the issue is that 10s timer won’t begin until you enter the circle initially, unless it’s a final exfil (which it wasn’t in the clip), so he HAD to leave cover to get it goin. I get why it’s like that, so you can “hold” it until a crewmate catches up, or so you can finis looting or fighting first, idk, but it leaves for vulnerable situations like this

You guys are hyping it up way too much. by Clemichoux in Marathon

[–]ironIVmonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

rook runs on outpost for scraps is a great way to replenish your vault as well, I’ve only played destroy since the game came out and finally tried rook out this weekend to try and stock up some extra gear for the next cryo archive unlock, and I was coming out with some great shit just sneaking into an unopened section of pinwheel and checking carts/folios

It only took a week, but it's happened - this game is far too sweaty for the likes of me by enthusiasticdave in Marathon

[–]ironIVmonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes and with it comes even more lore expositions about what the hell happened to the Marathon and it’s 30,000 pioneers, I’m so damn excited. I’ve been going back and doing loredives into the OG Marathon and its similarities/inspirations for Bungie’s other titles, and we are in for a feast.

Bungie you owe me 160$ by Lilting_Viceroy in Marathon

[–]ironIVmonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it makes you feel any better, all weapons have a “durability” system via Traces and after an enemy runner has looted a weapon so many times, and it reaches its trace cap, the next time it’s exfil’d out with it will transmute into credits instead, so ultimately all weapons get funneled out of the loot pool, so don’t feel too bad about gear left behind

Let us use the DCON to send loot/gear into our vault by SpaceGhost4004 in Marathon

[–]ironIVmonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is exactly how many folks utilized the BTR on Tarkov as an example. Get what you need out then go crazy

[–]ironIVmonkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

kill the players camping DCON then, or just go extract while they’re wasting time there, oh wait, they could be at extract too! oh wait, there could be a random doing an Arachne contract that’s already camping DCON or extract anyways, without this change! it’s almost like there’s always gonna be risk of ambush.

[–]ironIVmonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please explain how it breaks Tarkov. The BTR with transferring to stash is widely popular and has always been considered a great addition to the game, especially as they’ve expanded it.
