@Whirlingmonk @giancar73012035 Seriously Brother... Research SBMM vs OBMM... Skill based stopped being a thing with MW2. Everyone started using Outcome Based Matchmaking.

@TitusAwoken @giancar73012035 This is how it works in destiny in cod in bf 6 etc etc. No game actually puts you into a lobby of all the exact same skill level and stats. Thats never how it works
English
Skill-based matchmaking is the worst thing that could happen to this game
Piggy@PiggyKropotkinn
They’re already arguing for SBMM in Marathon on the subreddit lmao
English
@Whirlingmonk @giancar73012035 No brother... Outcome Based matchmaking is what you described. They try to force 50% win rate over the entire playerbase. So they put you on bad teams to lower your win rate and raise the mid elo players on the other team.
English
@TitusAwoken @giancar73012035 This is how every sbmm works in non ranked modes. Read it again. You are not qing into an all 2.0 lobby in cod. Thats not how it works because there arent enough players to do that at 3:33 on a Monday. Read what I wrote again
English
@Whirlingmonk @giancar73012035 You are describing Outcome Based Match Making... they front load Skilled players with unskilled players in Outcome Based Match Making,not Skill Based Matchmaking
English
@TitusAwoken @giancar73012035 That is never how it works ever. Take Destiny. How many people are pressing Q at 3:33 on a wensday. Not enough. if your 2.0 kd, it wont match u with all 2.0's in your lobby. Not possible with the pop. So it puts all the shit players on your team and expects you to carry them
English
@ShacosBabygirl Any mode that is free from Sniper, Shotguns and self res spam is going to be amazing.
The Meta Game is just obnoxious 1 shots and bubble shields...
English
@Ziegler_Dev 80% of the fights I experience are Snipers or 1 Shot Shotguns...
Yall need to experiment with removing these weapons sometime soon.

UPDATE: FREE KIT FRENZY - EXPERIMENTAL QUEUE - DIRE MARSH SPONSORED
Thank you to all of you who participated in the Duos Experiments we've had over the past few weeks. We're currently working on making duos a real feature in Season 2 and are diligently working on delivering that to all of you who are eagerly awaiting its return.
ABOUT EXPERIMENTAL QUEUES:
The experimental queue is a time limited queue that allows us to preview features in development with you, often with a less-than-complete feature set. This queue allows the Marathon development team to learn and obtain feedback that helps us deliver a more completed feature set down the line. For the sake of queue health and focus we only run one experimental queue at a time. Once we have learned enough to understand our next steps for this feature, we start work on finalizing the feature and move on to the next experiment. Your participation in any experiment is greatly appreciated and is very helpful to us in developing features down the line.
THE NEXT EXPERIMENT:
What happens when you bring a knife... to a knife fight? For our next experiment, starting Wednesday, 4/15 at 10AM PT, we will be enabling the Dire Marsh - Sponsored Queue. This is a new experimental queue that is focused on learning a bit more about our early gear ecosystem. In this queue all players will enter with a free sponsored kit and be challenged to use what they find on Dire Marsh to upgrade themselves and get out! Details below.
DIRE MARSH SPONSORED
Details: The experiment will run for approximately 2 weeks, from 4/15 @ 10AM PT to 4/29 @ 10AM PT. We may change the end timing depending on anything we discover along the way that might warrant us to make an adjustment.
--You will only be eligible to enter the queue if you (and your crew) have a free sponsored kit (white tier) equipped.
--You can enter as a premade duo (crew fill off), premade trio, or crew fill into a trio.
--The queue will only be for the Dire Marsh Zone.
--To enter this queue, you can select "Dire Marsh Sponsored" from the zone list.
What we will be observing and looking to understand:
--How the game plays out with low fixed set gear conditions and caps.
--How the zero to hero play works in low starting set gear conditions and caps.
--Any technical issues that arise.
There are many other changes and additions coming on Wednesday 4/15 PT as well so stay tuned to learn more from the Marathon Discord, and across all the social channels for MarathonTheGame / MarathonDevTeam. Thanks everyone. We appreciate your passion and all the commitment you have to providing us feedback and helping us learn more to evolve Marathon!

@2Calico Won't be surprised if the entire PvP staff at Bungie gets laid off this year.
Destiny wasted years trying to prop up Trials and suffered because of it... Now Marathon, after only 1 month, is rapidly becoming irrelevant and is likely on the verge of being shut-down.
PvE Content?
English
Not trying to sound a debbie downer or a shit cereal kinda guy but I remember a time not even that long ago where Gernader Jake had more viewers on a Monday trials stream than both of these games have viewers globally today. Really insane stuff
errl@errljonesiii
😭

@isolatedrook PvE Mode...
More PvE enemies...
Cryo PvE...
Ranked can stay PvP...
Let the rest of have our fun while the edge lords sweat each other with shotguns and bubble shields.

@JakeGerberMMA Ulberg is Everything Jiri wishes he was.
Samurai do not make excuses...
Samurai fight through Injury and always pursue the Honorable Victory.
Ulberg is Samurai.
Jiri is Pussy Cat
English
I get that people wanted Jiri Prochazka to win. He is a fan favorite, but stop taking away from what Carlos Ulberg did.
Ulberg knocked Jiri the heck out on one leg. ONE LEG! He should be getting huge praise for not giving up on himself and showing incredible grit & heart to get the job done.
One of the most impressive wins in the history of the sport.

@DarkIxion The problem isn't geared players... the problem is Snipers, Shotguns, Bubbles and Grenade Spam.
Free Kit isn't necessary.
Just put less teams on Marsh and Cryo and get rid of the Meta Game that turns everything into 1 shot down self-revive spam.
English
I think if this is received well they should consider it running it in ranked, a level playing field would make ranked more competitive imo

@RyGilliam Destiny style PvE expansion in June or this game is 100% cooked to a crisp, dead and buried.
English
Cryo is cool, but we’re not doing the game any favors when we refuse to recognize that it’s kind of a mess and showcases Marathon’s biggest problems.
I hope Bungie makes some changes tomorrow to make security terminals more consistent and spawns harder to rotate into like this.
NAPainter_@NAPainter_
Sorry this is late. While I wanted to go with the 6 subroutines, Cryo Clip of THIS week goes to the time my team hit 3 PoI's and wiped out a team of gold shield in the first 2 minutes of a match. Thank you Bio-stock Spawn
English
@Arrrrash @agilbeau26 Have you fought Dregs and Vandals in Destiny? They aren't that complex lol
They could literally just put a Warden and more bots in every PoI and make the game 100% PvE with 3x Difficulty Guarded Exfils...
Nobody would notice if PvP was turned off. Turn PvE off and the game dies.
English
@agilbeau26 Have you shot the bots in this game? They aren’t exactly complex lol
English
@RickKackis Now we just need PvE cryo to risk the gear we find in free kit Marsh

@arielhelwani Jiri is a Punk for making up mercy excuses. He was throwing leg kicks after he knew Ulberg had an injured leg.
The same level as Aspinall coming up with the I can't see nonsense. Bro saw the Teleprompter just fine in the Post fight Interview.
Europeans are pussies
English
Carlos Ulberg shuts down the possibility of a rematch next with Jiří Procházka:
“He’s had his chances. He’s had a fair few goes. I’m not normally this hard on guys, but, hey, if you’re out there talking smack, you can’t make excuses out there.
He didn’t even come and congratulate me after the fight. Normally, I show love to anyone I fight, but with him, it was a bit different because I feel it’s more just trying to play to the crowd.
The storyline could have been so much better… but now that’s been kind of clouded because of the whole ‘mercy’ narrative.”
English
@MissPookems Marathon...
I would add Destiny Style PvE Content and watch the Playerbase SkyRocket.
English
‼️GAMERS ONLY‼️
Whats one "dead" game, you'd revive rn if you could?
English
@isolatedrook Huge step in the right direction.
Zero to Hero. Equal start for everyone.
Now they just need to add a PvE mode for folks to use the gear they find on their Extraction runs.
English
@isolatedrook @Jaiydanimate Nope... it's only an extraction shooter if you can load into perimeter with a full gold kit and kill new players with no gear trying to complete the intro quest...
English
@Jaiydanimate Well you'll still be looting and extracting but just on a more even playing field

@TitusAwoken @JakesBadd @Kallhem29 @lulusoccer I think you might need glasses and a mental aptitude test.
