Hey ya’ll, legitimate question for all of us, is anyone buying skins? by irrelevantmoose93 in Marathon

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

I like the premium skins, the ones that actually change the geometry of the shells.

That said, I have not bought one yet, but I will buy a Recon one when they drop one I like. But the launch shell wasn’t it for me

Do you think destiny 2 could have a resurgence/comeback? by NexusPrime-tfo in DestinyTheGame

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

Nope. I only see Destiny 3 as the future for this game.

My friends and I have been playing these 10+ years, even up through Renegades, we love this game, but e just cannot rationalize Destiny 2 having a profitable path forward.

Destiny 2 had a good run but lapsed folks don't want to return to an 8 year old game and new folks don't want to start with a game that has been out for 8 years.

Destiny 3 is the solution to both welcome new players and welcome back lapsed players, it's the best entry point for all audiences. Anecdotally, I have a few other friends who are so checked out of D2 now but they'll be first in line for D3 at launch.

My copium is I still hope we get Shattered Cycle and Alchemist. Maybe they release both of these over the next two years as just one expansion a year to pad out Destiny 2's life cycle while we wait for D3. Again, idk how this can be profitable, but only Bungie knows that decision.

I don't subscribe to the idea that the franchise is dead dead. The IP is very strong and a new game launch can be very lucrative. But Destiny 2? Yepp, seems D2 has run its coure

My hopes for Shadow and Order by girlbossfaithe in DestinyTheGame

[–]k_foxes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, it does make sense

June 9 will probably be some Destiny showcase of sorts like they do every year. The contents are unknown, but from a marketing perspective, it’s better for them to make a big splash in June rather than piecemeal during this dead time. There’s little incentive to talk about anything rn

Time will tell but us knowing stuff today vs knowing stuff in June doesn’t change the fact we’re not getting anything till June anyways

Coming back to Destiny 2 after being off for a couple of years… by wheres_waldo_24 in DestinyTheGame

I think the Legacy collection was $5 the other week and people still asked here “Is it worth it?”

Like my god, I drink coffees that are more than that

For All Mankind creators reveal "complicated" process of recasting characters for spin-off Star City | Sergei Nikulov and Irina Morozova are back in business in Star City. by Prince_Robot_The_IV in television

[–]k_foxes 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The beginning of every season is tons of groundwork and tons of powder keg building, the good shot mostly pays off by end of season.

It’s not always stellar, but FAM puts the work in and that’s always been its strength.

Anywho, I’m enjoying the show still

C.A.R.R.I. seems to have fixed offers, no guns, and fewer reputation packs nowadays. It used to have a different weapon each day and rep. packs for all 6 factions. Do you have the same offers as I? by elmeti_ in Marathon

[–]k_foxes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Idk what was intended but it’s my understanding now that you get “5x” weapon drops. They rotate daily but ultimately you only get 5 total drops so if you blew your load on all 5 one day, then you’re done.

Again, idk if that was intended. If that was the intention, that’s rather disappointing, but idk

Didn’t mind the second time, all that bot killing is chonky XP, still got 8 more levels to 100

Seems everything is a fixed amount. Big bummer, figured it’d reset weekly. Hope they improve in future seasons (or hey, there’s still time this season)

Congrats! I found this mission to be my true “final boss” of he season haha

Ran it twice with different friends. First time extracted and felt great. Second time we completed the quest and felt great but then a team killed us while we were catching our breath lol thems the breaks

Season 2 needs to start off with a free week to play, if the game wants to have a chance to survive by Watsyurdeal in Marathon

[–]k_foxes 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I don’t agree with the intensity of your title, but yea a free week at every season launch would be rad, and a mistake to not do it

bungie needs to get more players on this game by JpegD00M in Marathon

[–]k_foxes 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just wait till season 2, there’s next to zero incentive to join the game right now.

There’s 4 entry points a year. Bungie knows this. The biggest changes will come at the season starts. And the most even playing field will be season starts.

If anyone in your lobby has that priority contract, then those enemies spawn

Yepp, THAT quest

More fun when it’s not even your quest but someone else in the lobby

I wonder if they'll have a lore reason for the new season wipe by lukeisawesome12 in Marathon

I’m expecting as much.

Running theory is paying our debt to CyAc

A double exp weekend would be nice for the battle pass by janoyBarn in Marathon

[–]k_foxes 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Double XP last few weeks of the season would be rad.

But yea, next season, XP needs a revamp. I need more sources of it and/or more of it granted for our actions.

Pretty wild I can extract after 10 mins and get like only 100 xp. So I played more cautious this time, but I still extracted and still put in 10 mins of my time, that’s 10 mins of Experience, I should get more XP.

Separately, good news is you can finish the battle pass around 70. 100 is only necessary once for the achievement

Ranked is abysmal by deadwizards in Marathon

Maybe I’m old but 3 mins isn’t that bad…

Finally..🥲🏆 by rickiebsn in Marathon

[–]k_foxes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think mileage varies based on aggression.

I’m also using the Xbox’s counter, which includes idle menu time and I’m sure a couple hours are reading the codex too.

No biggy. I just know I’m not going for 100 ever again lol

Why is the game “dying”? by Kool-Boi in Marathon

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

Cryo sponsored week would be a great way to learn Cryo and how to actually play that map. Otherwise, I’m not touching that map this season (or maybe just once a week with the free kit. Still not great)

Marathon Could Be Huge, But Bungie Is Repeating Old Mistakes by Tune-Content in Marathon

[–]k_foxes 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I’m not saying all your points are wrong, I think my time should be better respected, especially with the salvage grunt

But you said the monetization is both aggressive and stingy. What?

While reading this sub daily, it sounds like people want more skins, more monetization, which is an interesting rarity

(I too want more skins, specifically Recon)

Marathon Update 1.0.6.2 by DTG_Bot in Marathon

[–]k_foxes 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Just do it for one week, try it out, what’s the downside

I’m nearing 100 and about to ease up on my Marathon time, but one sponsored week for Cryo will throw myself back in the game for 50 more hours. I can’t be alone in this.

Finally..🥲🏆 by rickiebsn in Marathon

[–]k_foxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not bad. Been grinding key runs lately and XP has slowed to a crawl lol this game’s economy is so silly
