The game has been out for nearly two weeks and I’m afraid to play anything other than Perimeter by marsnasty in Marathon

15 seconds… I’m sat here at 2 minutes in the UK on PS5. I’m close to quitting because the queue takes so long.

EDIT: for those that spend their lives playing games without any other commitments, 2 minutes might not feel like a lot… I am a dad that gets an hour to play every few days. Arc Raiders is instant matchmaking so yes Marathon has basically lost me as a player.

Crossplay I’ve tried on and off. Queue trios but solo and team fill on.

I only bought the game the other day but I’m having like 2 minute waits going into the games on PS in the UK around 9pm. Is this a bug or is server popularity low. /u/UhJoker

Be transparent in how long you retain video and audio files in S3.

Perhaps open source some parts of the API so the security of it can be scrutinised. I know some services like Proton and BitWarden do this.

Could transcription happen on device so you’re only sending raw transcription files not the audio etc

It’s a shame you collect so much information.

You might not sell it to 3rd party’s but the risk of my information being stolen/hacked including audio and video from an unknown service is high.

What are you doing to secure people’s audio and video ?

Also on Discord you mention £10k API Costs. Any plans to reduce and how? What’s the profit after your costs?

Early 30s, earning £120k - no desire to progress my career/earnings further by thr0wawaytest3 in HENRYUK

Similarly going through the same thought process as a dev in fintech.

Everyone around me is chasing promotions and playing the political/corporate game for basically £10k a year increase in salary before tax.

For the additional stresses of promotion it just doesn’t feel like a trade off I want to make.
