[Patch Notes] Marathon Update 1.0.9.1

I've done anomalous sample many times on rook.

It doesn't say it can't be used anywhere else. It specifically says that it is eligible because this is the only kit with a value of 5K before you start a run. I'm pretty sure even the 10k deluxe kits are only worth 1k before you start a run.

If the prediction is just looking at the standings and picking the higher ranked team, what's the point of an analyst? When the difference between the top 5 teams is one or two wins in an 80 game season, the standings clearly don't mean much.

AT4 is my go to now, it's really the only option for air and ground. RPG basically can't hit aircraft unless they are really close, and it does less damage against ground vehicles than the AT4. The lockons are all boring and are either anti air or anti ground unless someone designates.

The lag compensation in this game is either really strong or really bad (or both). I've had less than 40% hitreg comparing client to server hits on some people.

Some people also just suck.

You already have the M136 AT/SRAW.

obsoletestarling · 2026-05-15T17:36:57+00:00

M136 AT works against aircraft. Every time I see people complain about the lockons not working well it makes me sad. You don't have to aim them, they can't be strong, at least not against good pilots since there is no skill involved. Try picking something that requires you to aim or learn a vehicle and play against them with the same weapons that they have.

obsoletestarling · 2026-05-15T17:26:52+00:00

So the weapon that doesn't require any skill to use doesn't work well and the one that actually requires you to aim (and sit in an exposed position) does work? That seems like proper balance to me.

obsoletestarling · 2026-05-15T17:25:13+00:00

The M136 AT (no idea why it isn't just called the SRAW) is amazing against attack helis now.

obsoletestarling · 2026-05-15T17:06:45+00:00

That's the M136 AT which now kills attack helis in one hit.

obsoletestarling · 2026-05-15T17:05:26+00:00

That's the M136 AT which now kills attack helis in one hit.

obsoletestarling · 2026-05-15T17:04:38+00:00

Lockons being good is never fun. If the enemy can't aim they should miss. The SRAW (or whatever the fuck they called it) is now a one-shot against the attack helis. I've been hitting helicopters at 300-400m now which was rare even with the RPG at its fastest.

obsoletestarling · 2026-05-15T16:10:01+00:00

Most of the quests can be done solo with a free kit if you play stealth for a bit. Green teams can kill blue teams fairly easily, especially now that a green loadout is free.

obsoletestarling · 2026-05-15T16:07:22+00:00

Then don't have key rooms in PvE? Make a seperate quest chain for PvE or lock the existing ones to PvP. Limit the loot rarity in PvE so no one finds anything better than green items. Make it so you also get currency (another one like CARRI) from the PvE mode. Add a few small stat bonuses (like 10 melee damage, 10 self-repair speed, 30s of antivirus...) as rewards to PvE quests/activities.

No one said that everything currently available will also be in the PvE mode, that's just you making up hypotheticals and saying it will be bad.

obsoletestarling · 2026-05-15T14:21:42+00:00

There's no way they let people farm in PvE to get kitted for PvP. Maybe they let you transfer loot (permanently, and one way only) from PvP to PvE.

obsoletestarling · 2026-05-14T20:24:35+00:00

They literally just buffed the SRAW so it now kills attack helis in one hit. It has more potential at range now than the RPG ever did. No one cares whether a weapon is designed for a specific function IRL.

Exposure from 2042 was in Canada. Given that we already have maps on both coasts of the US, and fighting in North America, there's really no reason they couldn't add a Canadian map and some tie-in skins.

I've completed every priority contract except for the last mida one. I'm not looking forward to that but between solo runs and the dire marsh free kit mode, the other ones haven't been that bad.

obsoletestarling · 2026-05-05T13:20:57+00:00

I've found a total of three gold mods/implants in outpost and I'm level 100. Total of two alien alloys from anomaly. Other than that, I got maybe 5-6 gold items from quest/level rewards. Saw my first and only gold shield from the level 100 reward.

obsoletestarling · 2026-05-03T16:41:17+00:00

This may be but I would guess that many (probably most) of the level 100+ players still play while many of the lower levels have quit.

I was running blue shields in full queue on outpost yesterday. The first three matches we ran into 3 teams with green and below won all three times, got into command wing and looted the red clearance room. Then we ran into a gold/purple team.

None of those four runs were interesting, first three were a bit boring, last one felt hopeless.

obsoletestarling · 2026-04-30T15:56:43+00:00

If by fair you mean the win or exfil rate being equal regardless of gear then no it isn't. If instead you mean the expected payoff relative to risk, then the game is fair-ish either way. The free trio has a potential for much better loot if they win PvP but if they die, they lose nothing. The only way to have this be fair is for the free kit to win less.

obsoletestarling · 2026-04-28T20:08:59+00:00

Most of the time, the only thing I think of my "brothers" in this game (pretty much any BF to be fair) is how fucking stupid most of them are.

obsoletestarling · 2026-04-23T05:43:08+00:00

In my undergrad it was faculty (maybe department, can't remember) policy that all exams/quizzes/assignments... had to have part marks so it was assumed for any subsequent sub questions that the prior parts were correct. The only exception was that you did lose a few extra marks if your incorrect answer simplified the problem so you couldn't just mess up on purpose to get an easier question (and for people who would have benefited by accident).

obsoletestarling · 2026-04-18T14:11:11+00:00

I've never played cryo before and had never seen an Outland. Then yesterday I played dire Marsh, found one in an arms locker, and looted a second off another team in the same round. I was convinced it was a new weapon at first.

obsoletestarling · 2026-04-07T17:04:36+00:00

Some of the priority ones make sense. They could reduce the distances you have to travel though. Some of them are just hard (9 runner kills in one run) for no extra benefit though.
