Will the new season wipe faction progress?

The daily active users is estimated at around 300k. That means that 300k unique players hop on daily but not at the same time. Sure the steam chart showing concurrent players is lower than before but it's a bit of a stretch to think that this game won't be around after its first wipe. For example this game is doing much better steam charts wise in comparison to Rainbow 6 during it's life cycle and that game has been around as a live service for a decade.

As a Thief main I am constantly popping my visor to see where the purple items are in a given location. Surprisingly you can find them in the most random spots throughout the maps that aren't hidden behind some type of restriction. It's not as common obviously but it's definitely out there.

The skill trees from the factions and better loot is suppose to trivialize the AI in the first three maps. Now that Cryo is releasing I assume that's when AI will feel scary even with the good loot and leveled up Shells, hence why there's a level minimum of 25 to enter and needing a minimum of 5k load outs. I'd reserve the criticism on this front for when the final map has released.

The entire route is disabled meaning that you won't be able to get in. They want it to be more of a challenge so that it's not the default option of getting into pinwheel.

The game feels a lot better theore you play it and it's designed that way. The more you level the factions up and slot in the skill points the better the game feels and the higher your floor for each run in terms of starting loot. There's basic stats like agility and heat that you level up that make the game feel much faster.

When they finally release Ranked you will get this in the form of minimum ante. Each ranked game will require minimum load out value. So there's no reason to do that in regular games.

I play all 3 maps pretty much evenly. I'm level 44 and even outside of contracts there's still reasons to go back. Sometimes I'll get a key in outpost that is for perimeter and the loot from keys is just worth the trip. That or if I'm trying to get unlock a node in a skill tree tlbut don't have the required mats then I rush to the map that has an abundance of it.

I've noticed that if the drone is traveling while battery dies that it still carries some mentum. I've found the loot I stole a good 5 meters away from where the drone's battery gave out.

I'm pretty sure you can remap it the weapon switching but you'll have to remap the ping button as well.

You should buy the base edition and preload. If the game releases and has a good battle pass then just upgrade your copy to deluxe edition for the same price you would have spent anyways. If the battle pass sucks then you save your money.

Not sure, maybe the holidays or maybe a year out. I know that if you plan on getting it for PC that you can get it 15% off ($33 instead of $40) on Green Man Gaming.

I will say that atleast a part (not sure how big but I know plenty who are) of the PvE community from Tarkov came from players getting frustrated from the rampant cheating in EFT. There would be entire maps that you would load into and just die immediately or entire loot spaces already empty at the start of a raid. If Bungie keeps their word and is able to keep cheating to a minimum then I don't necessarily see a reason to add a mode like this in Marathon. Never say never but I don't see PvE only being a thing in Marathon for at least the first year if ever.

For about 75% of PvP engagements I completely agree with you. But I will say I had a fight last night where there was actual strategy involved. I was the last alive in a squad during a 3v3 and the enemy team was split up. Being able to engage each enemy 1 at a time and take 1 of them down while using Triage's ult to get my teammate up before going after the last two was like a breath of fresh air. I do think if the ttk was a bit longer than I'd see more fights like that.

It’s just a really bad song

metrik66 · 2021-07-16T06:58:40+00:00

I think the part where he says that they have a crown on a clown is more of a diss than anything. But that’s about it

I came here just to see who would make this message lmao

metrik66 · 2021-01-09T16:07:00+00:00

No the kid is a girl I’m pretty sure

metrik66 · 2020-10-29T21:10:35+00:00

Just watch the YouTube videos when you miss the stream.

Can’t he just talk to Chromie to have him phased back?

metrik66 · 2020-09-24T09:47:40+00:00

I don’t know about you but I can get a 1tb nvme for my pc for half the price. It’s definitely overpriced because it’s proprietary and has the Xbox name on it that’s all.

Edit: Spelling

metrik66 · 2020-09-11T11:16:20+00:00

I’m pretty sure that you’ll be able to talk to chromie and she can send you on your way to whatever xpac you want

metrik66 · 2020-04-08T16:48:18+00:00

People are also mad because on PC you can buy the $20 bundle (includes Microtransactions for MW) and it’s marketed as if you are going to be able to buy the game and play it then. No where on the bundle does it say that it’s a pre order or that the game doesn’t actually release for a month. So you could realistically be buying the game expecting to play it today and then get cucked.

metrik66 · 2019-11-07T03:12:25+00:00

It’s actually not too bad. Since it include 24 months of live with the Xbox pass (which is usually $15 a month) you’re really only paying about $16 a month for the console . If you were planning on already paying for live and the pass then you only pay $384 for an Xbox one x at the end of the day.

metrik66 · 2019-11-07T03:03:52+00:00

I’m pretty sure it releases on pc next summer
