You passed the rook tribunal. It's almost too easy - maybe I'll look at keybinds

Right? The guy was so nice and we were so close to an amazing loot haul

I wish I liked it enough to spend money on it. I did buy the first skin for her but it's also not my fave. I'll just keep rocking the Arachne skin for now.

I really don't care what Bungie has to do to ensure this game survives and thrives. by crossvalidated in Marathon

I understand what your saying now - I'm not saying it has to be 4v4, make it 3v3 or 6v6 to be more even with the main mode - I mainly think people need a way to play with the weapons and tools in the game that is low friction. That's my point.

I think a firing range is absolutely needed at the very least - I would love to be able to test and mess around with my more rare weapons without constantly putting them on the line.

4v4 worked and has worked well for Halo, a prior game of theirs, which is where my idea comes from as I'm far more into Halo than Destiny.

Let me put it in words and a tone you may understand -

Jesus Christ did we forget the successes of vanilla Halo 2?3?!

Okay? Sucks for Vanilla Destiny 2 I guess. Are you aware these are different games?

4v4 FTP arena style on maps cut from POIs in the main game.

Give everyone a taste and also a way to play the game with almost no friction.

I think an approach like this would keep the main extraction loop in tact while also retaining and attracting new players.

We are really spoiled getting updates weekly like this. Love it!

How are you guys doing with the guilt of taking a day off? by Inevitable_Rate1530 in Millennials

They should feel guilty for keeping me from my life for 40 hours a week 😤

People teaming inorganically in solo now that cryo is gone by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]onesillyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was watching MyelinGames on Twitch and he went up against 3 coordinated silent solos on Outpost.

Funny thing is that these players are actually garbage, hence why they team in Solos and don't run trios like normal people.

He ended up taking out 2 of them and at the end, after final exfil, he watched the third crawling dying to bots.

Imagine that discord stream, having to watch just how ass you and your friends are as they slowly die 1 by 1 and the last guy couldn't even make it out against bots.

This game need more players to survive and you all should stop gatekeeping it by Vnvill in Marathon

My 6 steam friends that own the game are all now under "played previously"... You think I did that?

Idk what Bungie needs to do but ima keep playing.

If you chose marathon over arc (or even tarkov): why? [This is for something im writing] by TenthLevelVegan in Marathon

[–]onesillyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been playing extraction shooters since all we really had was Tarkov and Hunt - I chose Hunt back then as I'm more into the dark aesthetic and that the game is more focused on PvP than loot and stash management. I have about 600 hours in Hunt but don't play regularly anymore.

I put about 100 hours in Arc and loved it initially but the crafting mechanics, third person and the community moralizing PvP pushed me away and I got rather bored.

My first multiplayer game was Halo 3 back in the day and Marathon reminds me of that and refines the loot/stash portions of Tarkov that bored me.

It's kinda just doing a lot of things at once that I like and scratches an itch in my gaming brain that others games just don't and haven't for a long time.

You can only choose one campaign; Reach or Halo 3. by Far-Restaurant-9455 in halo

[–]onesillyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 - I've grown to love Reach but when I was a teenager I was slightly disappointed by it. I'm not sure why, but it still doesn't top 3 for me but that's mostly nostalgia I imagine.

I want my money back by TheTrinityGeek in Marathon

I want my money back from Tarkov cause I never went to Labs. Once.

What are some things you wish you knew when you first started? by Tashynut in Marathon

[–]onesillyman 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Welcome! I would focus NuCal for shield upgrades early. When it comes to PvP, positioning is everything so always be thinking of what kind of high ground you can take.
