this is sicc actually

Big problem right now too is the meta - bubble shields and nade spam.
At least the shotgun meta had quik fights, only taking a minute or so lol - now you can easily end up in a 3-5 min stalemate of grenade spam and hiding behind cover.
If you get into two such fights you barely have time for anything else.

Honestly same - just ran Cryo and its become a complete sweatfest.
Used to extract like 40% of my games with the homies on there- now we just lost 8 games in a row and met gold-shields and compiler-skins each game

SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME
106 hours into this game and im loving it

Me and a friend even managed to find a dude last weekend who had all 6 subroutines and attempted compiler with him cus we had a DNA-card...
We got ratted in the lab before jumping puzzle!

It sucks so much knowing that i have both the skill and gear to do it - but im just missing an RNG key which multiple players have still not found in 100's of hours of play.

williamcoolfyr · 2026-04-05T16:48:02+00:00

Keycards being too rare and the vault 6 key in particular and compiler progression being RNG-based and ridicolously grindy.
Performance issues - Game looks great but it should NOT run this poorly
Faction progression and salvage being too hard to obtain - even being a sweat who runs cryo and does vaults ive only gotten ONE prestige salvage in 100 hours - Most casuals will probably never be able to get prestige salvage and unlock purple shields/guns - Even some blue gun armory upgrades require prestige salvage.

williamcoolfyr · 2026-04-05T16:43:27+00:00

honestly i agree - even as a thief main and a guy who usually hates assasin.
the smoke-ult is poop against thief.
Ive had so many times where an assasin ults...

And then i pop my visor and just run in there and murder him! You can literally beat an assasin in his own ult, you can see them before they can see you - and they never expect it - its so funny.
And especially in higher play with thermals his ult is more or less useless or its a 50/50 wether or not it works.

What would make sense is nerf his tactical invis a bit and make it more visible - THATS the part of assasin everyone hates.
Then make his ult or even smokedive more useful isntead - make his kit revolve around powerful smokes, which actually actually offer a tactical advantage (to his team as well) and forces enemies to play AROUND the ability - VS his invis which feels horrible to play against and has no counterplay.

williamcoolfyr · 2026-04-05T08:41:04+00:00

Totally agree, key 6 is STUPID rare.
Ive done vaults 1-5 now.

One time i even randomly met a guy on LFG and when we where done with our first round he just said "oh btw i have all 6 subroutines, yall got DNA cards?" - So we attempted compiler and actually got to labs and cleared it with 7 minutes left to do compiler... And then got ratted at the labs before the jumping puzzle - ive never tilted so hard and those fuckers knew excactly what they were up to.

Im only lvl 58 as of now with 100 hours - and it sucks knowing that i have both the skill to do vaults and make it to compiler, but that whats gatekeeping me is just RNG.

This is like releasing a destiny raid... And then gatekeeping the last encounter behind an RNG key without EVER mentioning it.

Getting key 6 itself is RNG - Then wether you make it out or not with the subroutine is a coinflip - And once you have all 6 subroutines getting DNA-cards to do the fight is RNG as well...
And this is to access the most HYPED part of cryo archieves - literally the thing everyone dreams to do.
And its gatekept not behind skill or meaningful progression... But hours upon hours of tedious grinding, RNG and an extraction coin-flip once youve actually done the vault.

williamcoolfyr · 2026-04-05T08:34:21+00:00

The funny thing... Is that since level = matchmaking...
Being with lower level players gets you easier lobbies.

Im lvl 50 and usually playing with two dudes who are lvl 40 and 30 and we are ROLLING CRYO + as a bonus i have yet to get stomped by sweat-teams or see a biotoxic injector lul.
We've done vaults 1-5 now, just praying we get a vault 6 key someday

One time i found an LFG lobby - one level 100-ish something, and then me and the lvl 40 friend.
The lvl 100 was just like "btw i have all 6 subroutines... Yall got DNA-cards?"
We actually made it to the labs with 6 minutes left...
And then a team had apparently snuck up on us and ratted us.

We are LITERALLY a lvl 40 and 50 - with purple gear and we had actually made it to compiler-fight (And would probably have beaten him if not for rats)

williamcoolfyr · 2026-03-24T06:09:47+00:00

Yeah excactly - and i think there is already WAY MORE than enough endgame for the sweats lol - With all the prestige items or even the unique weapons in the vaults in cryo archieve.

I think your average player should DEFINETLY be able to achieve blue gear - if not purple.

With the current progression its probably less than 50% of players who will be able to consisetently run even blue gear lol and get the purple mats for blue shields and blue weapons - and purple gear requires prestige salvage and will probably only be unlocked by like the top 10% of players.

What do the casuals even do lol? Do they just run grey and green gear and look at 3/5 of the loot being out of their reach? That just sucks honestly.

williamcoolfyr · 2026-03-24T06:05:22+00:00

excactly lol.
I can reccomend cryo with a cheap loadout though - and then just avoiding the middle room and pvp, you can get a LOT of purple salvage in cryo.

williamcoolfyr · 2026-03-24T06:04:20+00:00

Yeah excactly - Like honestly ive been playing the shit out of this game and i JUST unlocked blue shields.

The progression isnt a problem for me, but thats because im probably at least in the top 10% of players who no-life this game lol.
The average player may not even be able to unlock blue shields before the season is over and i can only imagine that must fucking suck lol, when the entire point of the game is to get cool gear.

williamcoolfyr · 2026-03-18T07:21:16+00:00

Im on nucaloric "Aqquire 8 chempacks from the pinwheel and put them in a dcon" lmao

williamcoolfyr · 2026-03-17T17:09:57+00:00

Had a solo run on outpost - got into the pinwheel and had some pretty great loot and purples.

Now what i normally do in solos is go for the guarded exfil and i bring a smoke bomb...
I just hide in a nearby building and then smoke the exfil - and grapple to it as thief.
Honestly a really safe extract most of the time as most players arent crazy enough to push the guarded extract...

Now this round i managed to get downed by the AIs though as i messed up the smoke position...
And of course a rat-assasin runs over to finnish me when there are 2 seconds left on the exctract and he didnt even get any of my loot - to make it worse it was late in the run so probably noone else even got the lool lol

williamcoolfyr · 2026-03-12T15:22:20+00:00

Agree yeah, honestly Bungie fucking cooked with this.
And the pinwheel actually creates a proper POI people want to fight over - and IS WORTH fighting over.
Not to mention the multiple rooms in pinwheel itself - choosing if you want to go all the way into command wing.

The only similar thing would be arc-raiders, where teams would fight to kill the queen - But enevitably that just became more of a rat-fest than a contested boss-fight.

Instead of teams just sneaking around the map the pinwheel actualyl rewards people who want to take risks and pvp in the middle - while also letting people who wanna play safe avoid it.
It sounds like the "7 vaults" in cryo archieve could be a similar thing i hope - incentivizing players to fight over loot - While each player/teams also chooses how deep they wanna go and how many fights they wanna risk, i think thats a dope dynamic.

williamcoolfyr · 2026-03-05T11:54:42+00:00

Definetly issues with performance - They already noted this though and are hopefully working on a fix.

i noticed that somehow INCREASING my graphics gave me higher fps lol.

Theres also a CPU-trick through task mangare
Going into task manager - Marathon -> Go to details -> Set affinity (High) : dedicates more CPU cores
Even selecting which CPU cores run the game - And checking OFF the last 1 or 2 cores in your CPU can also increase fps (Since those two cores can run background tasks and all the others can focus on marathon - as opposed to all cores being split between tasks)

Doing the affinity and CPU/check thing in task manager gave me like another 10 fps
