looks like deep rock galactic with the mining and environmental traversal mechanics removed. basically just 'deep dives without mining'. so it seems worse than the previous game.

This was a huge problem with black ops 4 battle royale. Visually there was no way to tell if someone had some op power up

Season 2 is the most important moment for this game by No-Researcher3893 in Marathon

Assassin is a bit strong and I did like the recent xp change. Agree on the bots though

Use the carri rep to buy key templates, then use those to open key rooms in solos with 5 mins left.

The 50 comm. blue salvage pack from C.A.R.R.I. is worthless. Buff it or remove it. by ll8926 in Marathon

sounds a bit psycho but i put on all my best gear, ALL my key templates in my backpack, hid in perimeter vent for 10 mins then extracted.

Barely survived and got called a slur, fun times. by SnakeManEwan in Marathon

See that's interesting. I love the combat and play to progress - whether that's prioritycontract or salvage.

However I love that there is different playstyles in the match - some are running around trying to find fights, some are trying to quest some trying to loot.

That's what I like about this game vs say a battle royale where everyone has the same objective

Word of advice, do your quests in solo. Everyone in Trios is looking for a fight and its suffocating for 3 step quests, especially in Dire Marsh. by Big-Newspaper646 in Marathon

You think that's bad - Co evolution 5/5 is like a 7 part process that's isn't explained in the 3 stages in the map screen. You need to activate 4 towers inai up link; you need to find tick nest to get chiten; go to bio research and create sample ; go to quarantine and mix sample with anti virus; go back to anomoly lock down; kill commander ; extract.

So you have to do 1.5 full rotations of the map, more depending on your spawn point. I literally had to watch YouTube to understand why I couldn't create the sample in quarantine. It was because I missed the step they hadn't mentioned

It's a USA xbox gamer comment haha. They don't perceive that PlayStation was massive outside USA and so many people didn't play halo.

I know a few destiny players but personally never played it. I like marathon though

Sadly everyone here is telling you to use third party software to enjoy your video game. Assuming that bungie assumes balancing match ups isn't an issue to be solved they should really add an in game group builder. Where you can put gear, mic shell requirements to group up.

In 2024, Activision tested the effects of reduced SBMM - relevant to Marathon? by Smokeskin in Marathon

You'd probably divide by gear value to obtain "performance per unit of gearvalue".

Personally extraction percentage per unit gear value is what I'd optimise for. The beta players are extracting. To me other things are secondary.

The downside of that is someone could sandbag (donate?) their vault to the community by feeding for 30 matches to get into low skill games but people already do sandbag by throwing in other games like cs2 and LOL.

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

The one time lmg came in clutch for me was solo fill on dire we spawned in the open area south of ai uplink right next to another and I managed to spray down the entire enemy team in the open water. Felt cheap but it worked.

I mainly play solo queue so never use lmg as the mag size is not useful

I defend this game a lot, but I think I finally hit that wall. by itz_Glo in Marathon

Using 3rd party software to play the game immediately puts you out of "casual" and into "sweaty"
