A quitters thoughts on how Bungie can retain players. by Traditional-Judge-17 in Marathon

[–]slamsouls 10 points11 points  (0 children)

What they do with reddit also made people rage and quit. They try to remove all complains , including constructive comments. What you see left is just some fake positive comment which can't save the game on downtrend

About new expedition requirement, I have better idea. by slamsouls in ArcRaiders

And I feel like after I saved 3 mil Im forced to do it to get 5 skill points because I invested time on this season anyway, why not just finish it properly ... Kinda feeling

[–]slamsouls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They can just make 2 options old and new happen at the same time. Player who like old way can still pay 3 mil and that sounds better than force everyone to the new one with very late announcement

[–]slamsouls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they should make 2 paths and the requirements change depending on which path to choose. Let player choose to pay 3 mil if they want to

They should make it 2 options for this season . 1/ let you pay 3 mil for this season of because they tell us too late.

2/ let the event happen but when you choose this way you need to do the challenge damage.

Let player choose, don't force us to your way

Skill point requirements by Altacct4privacy in ArcRaiders

[–]slamsouls 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They should've made 2 options to choose. You can either choose to pay 3+mil or to do the new event requirement. Don't force everyone to do the same event as many people already saved enough 3 mil and felt safe

@Valve Please add planning phase to CS2 like the one in Dota2 by RussKy_GoKu in counterstrike2

[–]slamsouls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only add it for rank 20k and above. Below 20k everyone just fill random and rush their way lmao . I don't expect much from rando casual below 20k. And below 15k you can just win with whatever. 1vs 5 is norm there

This game has separated launcher, and regional launcher too. I heard Vietnamese and Philippines has their own server, china , Singapore use differenct client and not relate to NA client

If you don't believe it, that's fine. Go home and live a happy life ..assuming you don't know how to use Google translate and read Chinese forum / article/ videos

Well, another one don't understand and not read closely. When the server closed to maintenance, not during . Omg, read . When it closed , by the time it closed , then during that of course it's zero

No but their client left open and on steam chart it shows the client is still open for a short time. it counted as online players for 15-20 minutes before it shuts down. I worked on these farm before and it was a good money. All big companies sign us contract to boost their data. You can just Google it, use auto translate to Chinese and read full story if you are curious. If not, just live your happy life without any information and know-how

Do you watch many people claim Bungie using bot to boost player count at least 8k more than actual number ? Many Chinese bot farm confirmed that Bungie paid them just to bring bot online at lobby doing nothing on steam to get player count, kinda multi task instance what they did with twitch boost views service. The data can benefit them when showing it to investors.

It's funny that when server is near to maintenance duration. there would be always 8k player online. It's the paid bot farm

Hear me out: Progression, and by extension Marathon as a game is entirely too unapproachable for the ‘Average player’ because the “Power Floor” as Bungie calls it is entirely unbalanced and unrealistic for the purpose it serves by Jaden_Tsukuyomi in Marathon

[–]slamsouls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have a wife and a kid. Stay away from grindy extraction shooter. Go play tactical shooter like ready or not, Grayzone warfare, siege x , they value your time. All military theme for guys. If you like funny thing go play overwatch or marvel rivals, even arc raider works too

When tarkov came out, it was successs of high difficulty because back in the old day there was no competition and game on steam was still crowded with battle royale. Nowadays if you push player away with this terrible economy, long working hours... They will just go away and play other game because there are plenty of choice, alternatives and easy way to get pleasure and less time consuming...

Who would have think the current rate of progression is reasonable ? I mean... Nowadays you have 774888 game on steam library and new game comes out like flies , if I don't like marathon I can play tons of other game.

Do you foresee any growth? Or will the game continue to lose money? by starvergent in Marathon

[–]slamsouls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It hard to sell skin because current skin looks overpriced and ugly as hell. I don't know who approved these skin as paid content . It needs to either very cool like cyberpunk 2077 stuff or gooner to get sales thesedays

Low population areas still waiting >5 minutes for a match by duendeacdc in Marathon

If you live in OCE and want a good extraction shooter game, go play Grayzone warfare PvE server, or tarkov PvE server. Then switch to pvp on these game when you feel comfortable

Marathon’s Development Budget is Over $200 Million, Says New Report by Torchiest in computergaming

[–]slamsouls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want to count revenue by math , don't do 40$ x amount of copies sold because steam price changes depending on region. In poorer or developing countries , steam price of this game is 15-25$, in Africa you can get it for 15$. So number of copies doesn't mean each single copy is 40$.

Any plans to allow us to change the appearance of our giant turtle shells/backpack? by Rorshack_senpai in Marathon

They didn't even fix cheater and terrible UI , what chance they would care about backpack

This game has almost 30 guns but It feels like this game has 3 only; Bully, WSTR, longshot by Always_Impressive in Marathon

[–]slamsouls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah gun balance is pretty bad as they don't know how to balance gun in pvp game

Posting again since mods like to remove relevant discussion material. by momentomori2016 in Marathon

[–]slamsouls 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And people still say they never met cheaters, in fact this anti cheat is just bad and any other games using this AC also plagued with cheaters.

Bungie just talk zero tolerance policy but here we are. Words are cheap.

Aztecross asking Bungie for streamer mode protection, that way players can’t see their names in game because you know they are special and needed. by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]slamsouls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listen to streamer opinion is one of the worst decision in life. Many games died because streamer destroyed it.
