Check out my Classic Marathon playthrough. Here is the Playlist. It's not the best, but I did something I'm not comfortable with and saw it through to the end. youtube.com/playlist?list=…

@MarathonDevTeam Can we maybe get some news on optimization? I'm glad about weapon balancing, but can we hear something about performance soon?

As we get deeper into Season 1, we've been monitoring your feedback around the current combat sandbox closely. We wanted to talk a little about a few of the topics we're seeing frequently from the community, and some updates we're planning. 💣Too Many Grenades A big topic in the community right now is that it's not a good experience to open up a fight only to be barraged with dozens of grenades. We're looking to push some changes to stock counts and stack sizes before the end of the season. We're keeping an eye on the overall usage of equipment and will make additional changes as necessary. 🪙Gold Ares Railgun The Ares railgun with a Prestige mod being able to one-shot Runners with purple or gold shields is unintentional, and we'll be issuing a fix in a future update. We want it to feel strong and fun to use without being so effective it becomes overly frustrating to play against. 🔫WSTR Damage Nerf The WSTR damage nerf was a temporary nerf and we just released a more nuanced set of changes earlier today in Update 1.0.6.2. While we aren't looking to change the two-shot breakpoints, the WSTR indeed took a bigger hit than we were intending with the temporary nerf and we intend for this change to put it in a better place. It should have similar effectiveness against AI as before the nerf as well have less damage fallout at range. Go try it out and let us know what you think. We appreciate everyone's input, please keep it coming.

@Kelgorath7277 @THREEPEDWOOD Iirc the higher ups have been ignoring any feedback brought to them and won't let the dev team execute on said feedback. And likely Dmg cant say that or he risks his job. And from my understanding finding work as a CM is rough lately.

@THREEPEDWOOD Fr people who defend him and say the Community is at fault have forgotten that he is the Community manager. Ofc he gets criticism. Ofc people are angry. Its his job to tell bungie this frustation and if they ignore him he should tell us they do and find a better job

i get your job is hard, but it was never meant to be easy. you are quite literally the sole face of communication from Destiny right now and considering the state of the game for the last 2 years and you having been one of the key components in passing along feedback

@wpraper @MaxRovensky @prolificinvent @heskelbalas @i2cjak @fishPointer @yacineMTB Not a poor example, though. The guy I replied to claims it only costs $2 and 2 days of time. When in reality it costs upwards of $32 and 2 days. While I know there are cheaper shipping options those take longer than 2 days to ship.

@Sigma_tS @MaxRovensky @prolificinvent @heskelbalas @i2cjak @fishPointer @yacineMTB It's a poor example because it defaults on expensive shipping. Shipping can be as low as $1.50

Wait, you can just 3D print a circuit layout and then copper leaf it, and it works?!! We could have done this the whole time? @i2cjak @fishPointer @yacineMTB

@MaxRovensky @prolificinvent @heskelbalas @i2cjak @fishPointer @yacineMTB Says its $2 yet clearly there is a almost $30 shipping fee lol.

@prolificinvent @heskelbalas @i2cjak @fishPointer @yacineMTB $2 and 2 days

@Separer The game director has confirmed the game uses level based matchmaking. The community has confirmed it is level based matchmaking. This is not the same amount sbmm. If it were sbmm then you would also get low level players that have a high skill ceiling in your matches. Lmao

"It's not SBMM" sure but I haven't matched anyone under level 150 today in the last week and a half so I'm matching the top 1%... Sounds a lot like SBMM to me

@Yin_NGMI Queue populations are spread, lots of casuals and low levels in the sponsored mode so higher leveled players will be matching closer to their own levels and skill ceilings.

Seeing people say they think Bungie added some sort of SBMM to Marathon. I haven’t noticed anything different really. I’ve only been playing solos, free kit, and a few Cryo though. Has anyone else noticed anything?

@Geezaws2 Ita just really poorly implemented level based match making. Now since casuals and lower level players are in the free kit mood higher leveled players are just matching together more.

they did not trojan horse SBMM into the game. lower level players are on sponsored darsh getting through contract backlog. i dont know where you’d get the notion that they’d make a change like that without stating it, they’ve been clear about everything else, good and bad.

#TheBoys من ارخص المشاهد الي شفتها مشهد فاشل بكل ماتعنيه الكلمة وتقليد رخيص لكويكسيلفر يعني عندك القدرة ذي وما استخدمتها من اول اربع مواسم ليه داسها ؟ وشوف كيف يركض يوم تجاوز بوتشر شي مضحك 😂😂😂 ويوم لبس النظارة وهو جاي بدونها الهدف بس عشان التصاميم

@galvinmufc7 @AmadahAmy @davidpiraja_ Homelander and Marie are from project Odessa, where they injected the embryo with compound V. Only Homelander and Marie survived. So they were born with supes instead of being given compound V as a baby like the other supes.

@AmadahAmy @davidpiraja_ If remember right he was part of the omega project, with him & Marie the only survivors. Maybe something in that affects the reproductive system. Not that it matter, just people pointlessly nitpicking

The Boys tem MUITOS problemas primários de roteiro, mas nada a maior pergunta é: Por que Ryan nasceu com poderes enquanto o Homelander precisou ser injetado com o Composto V?

@StarlitPerrine @InsanelyPr24274 @Pirat_Nation Its his entire personality, though. What else is going to do other than needlessly compare two entirely different games?

@InsanelyPr24274 @Sigma_tS @Pirat_Nation Slay the Spire and Marathon are two completely different genres with completely different fan bases. There is no reason to compare the player base of these games you moron.

Marathon continues to drop in peak player count every week. The prophecy about to be fulfilled.

@InsanelyPr24274 @Pirat_Nation Slay the spire 2 is far from niche lol. But go off man. Happy for you.

@Sigma_tS @Pirat_Nation Imagine being surpassed by a niche card game both in terms of quality and player count 🤣🤣

@asalisbury Can we get the old icons back? These new ones look pretty bad not going to lie, and just missed the visual clarity issue completely.

🤔

@AnalogCo @Luuminah You get put into the higher-level bracket, so you go from somewhat casual runs to everyone is geared to the teeth because they are level 100+ and have been running cryo every week since it released.

@Sigma_tS @Luuminah wait what happens at 70?

im still head over heels into marathon but the conversation has turned so sour that i kinda already removed myself from the discourse ive already seen oomf cannibilise themselves over nothing

@mazokvmo @Luuminah "Skill issue" even when a person is insanely good turns level 70 and can no longer exfil because of stacked pre-made teams. That side of the community is so braindead they probably eat tomato soup with a fork.

@Luuminah you’re going to see a constant murderous battle between “we need to encourage new players to stay” and “we don’t gaf if you think the game is too hard and ruthless, get good” and it’s likely going to continue for the entire lifespan of the game

@MarathonDevTeam This is funny because this form is bugged for not only me but others as well.

We’ve seen the conversation about cheaters, toxicity, and competitive integrity in Marathon, so here’s a quick update from our Product Security team. Detection & enforcement: We have a zero-tolerance policy around cheating. We’re actively banning confirmed cheaters and expanding our telemetry and detection methods to better catch the aforementioned cheaters. Some of this work is live already, and more improvements will roll out over the coming weeks. Anti-cheat is a continuous cycle of monitoring, improving, and responding. This is an area that we will continue to invest in to protect the integrity of your runs. Reporting tools: We’re iterating on reporting for both cheating and toxic behavior: ➡️ Making it easier to flag suspected cheaters in-game and via our web tools. ➡️ Improving how you report harassment and other Code of Conduct violations. ➡️ Exploring in‑game mailbox messages so that when a report you filed leads to action, we can follow-up and let you know. Voice & comms: Longer term, we’re investing in better voice chat moderation tools to help us more reliably act on repeat abusers in proximity and team chat, alongside the tools provided by each platform. Stream sniping: We know stream sniping is a real pain point, especially in Ranked. We’re working with our Trust & Safety and design teams on better in-game protections, like name privacy options. If you run into suspicious behavior or harassment, please keep reporting it. Clips, VODs, and any supporting files you have can be delivered to us directly on our reporting website, right here: safety.bungie.net/hc/en-us/artic… It all feeds into the systems and people working to keep Tau Ceti fair. Thanks for letting us know what you're seeing out there.
