@AlexFinn What do you do to test the models? Do you just use them or are you using a series of tests to push the bounds?

[Ryan Butler @RyanRButlerDev]

@renlosmalik @knitehawk If you truly believe this your cognitive ability is seriously lacking.

The reason Destiny died is because they lost their umph and management made some horrible decisions.

Spinning up a new IP with the number of resources they had should not have killed Destiny.

[Ryan Butler @RyanRButlerDev]

@MicDubTV I whole heartedly agree with this take. My experience has been horrible on the PvP side. I’m used to tarkov where most of the time you only engage a team if you have the advantage because the likelihood of survival is small. Loot is way more scarce and important.

[Ryan Butler @RyanRButlerDev]

@RickKackis I mean the game was long dead before it was announced that it was shutting down…

[Ryan Butler @RyanRButlerDev]

@Rich_DK2 @PaulTassi @Forbes That’s how I feel about destiny 2 right now. I can’t bring myself to play it because it’s just a waste of time on a dead game.

[Ryan Butler @RyanRButlerDev]

@kambyyy @a_e_s_4 @PaulTassi Yeah. Sadly that speaks volumes about the masses. Another testament to the degredation of society.

[Ryan Butler @RyanRButlerDev]

@kambyyy @a_e_s_4 @PaulTassi I’m not sure. I’m not a graphic designer nor an artist. I get sick and tired of the realism take. It’s so boring. From an environment standpoint I get it but characters and npcs and the like I prefer a more artistic approach. The same old boring call of duty art style sucks.

[Ryan Butler @RyanRButlerDev]

@a_e_s_4 @PaulTassi I’m blown away by this comment. I see several people who say the same thing. I love the aesthetic and I know a lot of people that do too. It must be a pretty controversial take given the amount of divide

[Ryan Butler @RyanRButlerDev]

@Sliccjuice @PaulTassi I’ll give that a try

[Ryan Butler @RyanRButlerDev]

@SaulGoodman1117 @PaulTassi lol seriously

[Ryan Butler @RyanRButlerDev]

@DEADX223 @PaulTassi I don’t disagree with this. Those moments are just more scarce with my 5-10 hours a week

[Ryan Butler @RyanRButlerDev]

@thisisabhinay @PaulTassi I’ve done that once or twice. Issue is I am a father of 4 and can only dedicate 10-20 minutes at a time to it. There are times I have to hide in a match to take care of things so I usually end up going solo or running rook just so I have the flexibility

[Ryan Butler @RyanRButlerDev]

@TheJohnRicca @MarathonDevTeam I’m totally shafted. This game thrives on pvp and now I have no chance at competing because the avenues of getting said loot has been stripped

[Ryan Butler @RyanRButlerDev]

@MitchJonez Probably buy a couch and some parts to proactively fix my car

[Ryan Butler @RyanRButlerDev]

@NintendoAmerica And this is the 40th anniversary for Legend of Zelda. If you actually care about your anniversary’s, you certainly have a weird way of showing it. The lack of any Zelda news on a big anniversary year is shocking.

[Ryan Butler @RyanRButlerDev]

@GernaderJake @BNGServerStatus Logged into destiny went to the tower did the beginning of the quest and then just couldn’t bring myself to do anymore. This game has burned me out hard.

[Ryan Butler @RyanRButlerDev]

@PaulTassi @MarathonGG_ I love that they’re blaming a game for the death of another game. Let’s call a spade a spade. Bungie killed destiny 2 by stopping development on it and shifting towards development of a new game. Bungie is at fault not Marathon

[Ryan Butler @RyanRButlerDev]

@warmergray @MarathonTheGame @Ziegler_Dev @MarathonDevTeam Promise is too strong of a word and it appears that’s what they’re indicating. But with both statements in play it may mean that for gold you would get the emblem of the highest achieved rank was gold 1. It’s a stretch given this new statement so it for sure needs clarification

[Ryan Butler @RyanRButlerDev]

@warmergray @MarathonTheGame @Ziegler_Dev @MarathonDevTeam Your interpretation of the outline from today looks sound. Their explanation here looks unclear. I wonder if they mean that the lower threshold is gold, platinum and diamond rank 1. This definitely needs some clarification.
