Marathon will likely continue to wean away from being solely an extraction shooter (i.e. the BR style sponsored kit experimental playlist). Halo had campaign, sweaty PvP and social PvP/forge. Destiny had strikes/RaDs, Crucible and Gambit (lolz). If Marathon is to be a 10 year franchise, then it must follow the success patterns of Bungies predecessors. Extraction should be just one pillar of a more in depth universe of player options.






What are everyone's thoughts on the new Mercy Kit for Marathon? Have you used them yourself yet? Let us know below 👇








Diremarsh Free kit mode shows some us some important things. Combat feels much more fun when we are using our guns, theres no utility spam, infinite bubbles. On the other hand it makes me question the purpose of diremarsh and perimeter, other than to complete priority contracts


Dire Marsh Sponsored is an interesting idea that could be iterated on: - higher tiers of weapons and armor drop much more often to make looting more fun, but they're restricted so you can't take them with you - lower cooldowns for class abilities to make combat more frenetic and exciting - some sort of system to herd players closer together for more fights over time, a radiation cloud closing, something like that - maybe only one team extracts from a final zone after all the other teams are dead, and if they do, they get a lot more XP and rep, even if they have to give up that higher tier gear and start over with nothing - then you load in and do it all again! Now that sounds like a hit concept to me




@PaulTassi what’re u doing on the game bro post playercount




The Tarkov creator just announced a new sci-fi online multiplayer extraction shooter called Fragmentary Order. It's not my kind of game but it seems interesting: remotely operated clones infiltrate different locations in the solar system and enhance biotech mods




dawg what even is ranked anymore


"Marathon is good... the problem right now is it's too hard... it's a very sweaty game, ranked, Destiny raids, super painful when you die" Shroud thinks Marathon is hard, but it will take time for people to realize how good it is
