@timothydclark A shame his peer (aka Tyson Green)has a different philosophy…he needs to step up asap or step down.

However things play out for Marathon, Joe Ziegler is doing sterling work in terms of player feedback responsiveness. Gold standard.
Ziegler@Ziegler_Dev
Congratulations to all the runners who’ve been battling it out in the floating death fridge we call Cryo Archive! We’ve been watching and ingesting all the thoughts and feedback that we’re hearing, aggregating it and taking it down in notes. After this weekend we’ll spend some time looking into feedback and thinking of the next iterations we want to make: Main topics we’ve noted so far: - Scheduling : options for players who can’t play on weekends - Solos : is there any way to play this map without joining a crew? - Subroutines: can subroutines be more guaranteed as a drop from vaults? Any of these may take some time to figure out so I can’t guarantee quick solutions here but we’ll definitely discuss these topics as a team this week. Thanks for sticking with us as we evolve the game, and helping us fight the good fight against the cyborgs, robots, and aliens!

@DSR_Joker I love to be a fly on the wall at the Sony Bungie meeting, whatever Bungie showed them to part with £3.6 billion has to be the scam of the century.
English
100%
Marathon is a niche game with a niche art style in a niche genre for a niche audience
Problem it can't be
Marathon must be big
Sony didn't spend 3.6 billion for a dying MMO and an extraction shooter with niche interest
Marathon IS the bailout, the flagship, the crown jewel
Broman@Professorbroman
From all the commentary on Marathon that I've seen I think I can come to one conclusion. Bungie made a game for a specific audience and not for everyone, and that's a good thing I recall how universally Destiny was declared "mid" when it launched, interested to see how things evolve
English
@PaulTassi And the cycle repeats every year…make a promise, go silent on said promise, wait for the cascading uproar to build and then swoop in with info and a trailer and wait for the grateful feedback and “Bungie are cooking” comments to roll in 🙄
English
It has always been misguided to target dmg for the info situation. It’s a much larger process across the studio to make and share plans. It’s not like he’s just refusing to hit a launch button or something. It’s rough he has to be essentially the singular face of this publicly

Fully understand the lack of information is leading to a lot of fear, uncertainty, and doubt. Our teams are working to get you updated as soon as we can. Can't apologize enough. 💛

@MovieNewszz @BeyondReporter_ Shame, no more Harry Styles as Thanos’s brother…

Eternals will not be getting any future movies, as Marvel Studios looks to be moving on from the franchise.

@Destiny2Team New Gear damage resistance appears to be bugged, showing as 1% with all new armour on.

@DestinyBulletn Reused content from the pyramidion strike that was on io and suddenly everyone is praising Bungie.
English
I knew the final boss arena in Desert Perpetual Epic raid looked familiar...
English
@PaulTassi Using recycled content of the old pyramidion strike assets from io and suddenly everyone is praising Bungie again 🙄

@PaulTassi I’m convinced they pushed out the wrong sandbox patch yesterday and are frantically scrabbling around trying to work out how it happened.
English
Not even kidding, after they fix the power problem, double drops in every single Portal activity and make sure half of them are new gear. I am not sure how many more times I can shout "be generous" into the void here
English
@PaulTassi So everything will be fixed later…Bungie broke the core of their own game and now don’t know how to fix it. No wonder Pete cashed out..Tyson Green needs to step down as Game Director for these decisions.
English
toplines are like:
- we're doing more to buff Fireteam Ops, details later
- we're doing more to buff the power grind, details later
- we heard you wanted to rely less on buddies as Warlock and more on grenade builds so we made buddies count as grenades

@PaulTassi Bungie need to communicate clearly how ranks are linked to loot tiers, not just “oh it’ll be fun for the players to work it out”..scoring system and power delta jumps is also wonky.
English
Hit GR9. Not clear on what that does in terms of loot, but I hit it!

🚨NEW: Destiny 2 Edge of Fate pre-orders are down nearly 50% from The Final Shape, new fan analysis shows.

@PaulTassi @Forbes Great article, I think these concerns resonate with a fair proportion of the playerbase. It feels like Bungie are doubling down on mobile gameplay mechanics to keep engagement numbers up but suspect it will have the opposite effect

@Destiny2Team RoTN schedule in last weeks TWID stated it would be Spire for increased weapon drops, not Ghosts as seems to be the case since this weeks reset
English
@PaulTassi Probably good advice for ND too, we’ve seen the impact that running a Live service game over nearly 10 years has had on Bungie as a studio, successful to a degree but stifled their creativity and was a disaster when they tried to pivot to a multi-game studio
English
Bungie said it needed work and essentially explained to Naughty Dog what goes in to managing a live service long term and they didn’t want to do that
DomTheBomb@DomTheBomb
Never forget the role Bungie had in taking this away from us...
English
@TauCetiGG And now we know why Bungie had such a high burn rate(cash) and why Microsoft raised it as a concern for a potential acquisition.
English
Bungie is actively hiring new roles for Marathon:
- Marathon Commerce & Events Art Lead
- Marathon Gameplay Engineering Lead
- Marathon Investment Engineering Lead
- Marathon Activities Technical Designer (Mid to Senior)
- Marathon Principal Product Manager, Game Systems
