@MarathonGG_ I agree. I think they will stop after Bishop, focus on maps and story, then afterwards (if things go well and the game doesn’t die lol) they work on more runners again. Or maybe more enemies 👀
@biggieU_U Firestorm. 1/2 contraband weapons in the game. Cannot be exfiled. Instead breaks down into credits. Over heats runners on hit, I believe. But absolutely destroys UESC (rocket drones included). Only has 6 shots. No way to refill ammo.
This is indeed a controversial topic due to the stolen art during development. This is still, allegedly, the fault of someone on the art team at Bungie who blatantly 1-to-1 ripped an artist’s decals and plastered them across the entire alpha build.
Bungie admitted fault and compensated the artist, as they should have done.
I still believe this was the beginning of the smear campaign for the game. The alpha had it’s obvious issues (stolen art aside). Although it was that vicious feedback that caused the change that the game ultimately needed to look the way it does now…
(the visuals in the alpha were not great compared to what we have now AT ALL)
…we could have gotten that feedback without smearing the game.
IMO, Marathon should be nominated for…
Best Sound Design
Best Art Direction
Best Audio Design
Best Score and Music
Best Ongoing Game (could be next year if the game doesn’t die)
The game is THAT good! It has come a very long way since the alpha. But VERY few gamers will actually give it a chance cause of either propaganda on the TL, them simply not liking the genre, or still stressing about things that happened in the past.
🥀
i dont usually enter these discussions because its very subjective, but man I'd be shocked if Marathon doesn't win Best Art Direction at the Game Awards
@biggieU_U Wait till you start figuring out what EVERY, LITTLE, SOUND IS! Will definitely leave you paranoid af lmao. Glad you’re having fun chief! Spread the good word!
So hold on DMZ came out and it’s a PVPVE mode and people are mad at people doing the PvP portion? If you see someone you aren’t supposed to shoot them? I’m so confused
@PorkPoncho Definitely something Bungie should at least take inspiration from for onboarding in marathon. Bungie isn’t really hitting the mark in the onboarding department for their games.
@Turtle_Proxy - rangefinder optic
- farshot barrel for range to chall snipers or impulse brake for AA
- BpS or Slip Protocol
any other take is simply incorrect :P
an entire generation of gamers will not play a game if you cannot slide cancel, YY, dolphin dive while shooting, backflip 360 nose dive, 1040 gainer fakey flip jump cartwheel belly flop before you get into an engagement...
gaming might be cooked🥀
Adrian is NOT feeling MW4 DMZ:
"No, this chill, I think my dad would like to play this shit. But it might be fries extra crispy for me. No dope. This might be my grandpa's type of game."🗣️
So if you’re still rich then I don’t think it matters then, right?
You literally could buy a guaranteed gold piece of gear everyday 3 times before. For the top 1% they just max out on whatever that piece of gear is. Having that much in abundance starts to not make loot feel rare anymore. I’ve seen way too many vaults with rows of rodeo mags, rows of drrvish barrel, rows of mizzy gold mod. Like the loot is supposed to be rare. Combine that with Traxus gold mod for credits and the other vendor gold mod barters it’s just vaults full of gold (not including getting loot from players).
tbh, this is a tiny change in the direction in comparison to everything mentioned above. I think we will be fine if we can only buy one ganglion barter a day like lol
I’m sorry but… this is a good change.
The top 1% are going to get good gear regardless of the limitations. Better to stop the rich from getting flitchy rich and just completely avoiding what it’s like to truly have low gear value.
Fix the exploit where you can have days, sometimes weeks worth of gear in the mail next… 💯
