@DrewskysChannel I don't even touch Cryo with what I see in streams. Disinjectors, 100 bubble shields, 25 self revives, and Knife Bois running the ultimate Knife Builds...no thanks!

I'll never actually consider bringing in anything remotely good in cryo as long as biotoxic disinjector exists in its current state. Unacceptable to have that weapon's behavior and consistent acquisition in a game like Marathon.

@escapedieu @DrewskysChannel Nah, it's busted...the majority not having it (who knows the actual %) doesn't negate that.

@DrewskysChannel 99% of players don’t have access to this weapon, i can see how it’s busted but it’s becasue it’s so hard to obtain. i hope bungie doesn’t nerf it

@eevee3207 @OperatorDrewski @GrayZoneWarfare The LZ System and the flat visuals in this game are my two biggest problems with it.

@OperatorDrewski @GrayZoneWarfare The lighting is terrible, shadows are so flat Look at that second pic at the grass, 0 occlusion in the grass

I will admit @GrayZoneWarfare might be the most beautiful hyper-realism looking game I've ever played. The graphics and environments are insane + the optimization is objectively much smoother this update.

@EpicDan22 @A_dmg04 @Bungie @MarathonDevTeam @BrunoLouviers @Cozmo23 Man did the Non-Player Characters come out in force in this comment thread!

Just toxic and being a terrible person for no reason. Get this person out of Marathon. @A_dmg04 @Bungie @MarathonDevTeam @BrunoLouviers @Cozmo23

@TroopersExt I have to admit that I thought this was for sure a joke. Loaded up and was shocked to see an actual cleaning mission! I did my part! 😆

Don't be fooled. This is NOT a joke. store.steampowered.com/news/app/12687…

Troopers, Valaka is in chaos, and only the bravest can restore order! The Federation is rallying its most elite heroes to help clean up the piles of carnage left behind from the most recent Vanguard victory. We have deployed a new experimental weapon, codenamed XU-9 ‘Spitshine.’ This cutting-edge machine obliterates bug slime, polishes battlefields and leaves a satisfying sparkle in its wake. Join now and do your part. Sanitation guarantees safety! #OperationStalwartSanitation 💦 🔫💦

@Mutant_Menace Cavill looks the part and showed the part! The other looks like a budget cosplayer and had a movie where they played the part of a cosplayer!

And it's not even close

@Ravenismeee Somewhere where I'm praying the Protomolecule is nowhere nearby @ExpanseOnPrime

you’re trapped in the last tv show you watched, where are you?

@Ziegler_Dev Well DAMN @Bungie @Ziegler_Dev you all are NAILING it with the feedback responses. The first three being mentioned first were GLORIOUS to see and the whole list a chef's kiss! Gamers are crazy to be bashing this game given the quality of not just the game but this dev team!

BALANCE SHAKE UP! We're looking to make some changes in the next couple of patches to adjust some of the outliers in the combat space that we've both seen in our observations and heard from your feedback across all of the various (and plentiful) channels we watch. Some of these changes will be likely coming in the next patch, the next set will likely be arriving a week after. Here's some of the areas we're focusing on adjusting: - Bubble shields being too easy to get, too powerful to use. - The Knife scaling too easily to god like power levels. - Thermal scopes being too present and dominant - Snipers being too strong in all scenarios. - Giving Vandal and Recon some more oomph to match their counterparts. ALSO we're adding some stuff that can help add texture to the outcomes of fights: - SECRET: A new item to give solos a more common option when downed. - SECRET: A new item to give a more merciful option between crews. There'll be a lot more goodies in the coming patches and more details as the patch notes go live. Thank you all again for keeping the feedback flowing. We've still got a big list of things we're looking into that extends beyond this that will take us more time to figure out and we'll update you as we continue to build on our evolving plans.

@reconc4t @OperatorDrewski BINGO! Not sure why the devs want to die on this hill. I get the whole "realism" infil/exfil deal BUT this is where GAMEPLAY > Realism. I can't think of any workaround that would ever get this to work. Devs are beating their heads against a wall for no reason.

@OperatorDrewski Only thing that will fix LZ camping is getting rid of LZs

Day 1 into streaming GZW and while the QOL is great I cannot believe this game has gone like 2+ yrs now with this "every team shares same LZs" feature and "you can't tell the pilot to wave off" and "the ambushing player doesn't know you're invincible for 5s from the heli"

@dement427 @OperatorDrewski Don't understand this comment when the game already has a PvE mode option. This is not a situation where there's a PvPvE extraction game where no such option exist.

@OperatorDrewski this game would probs benefit in every factor by just becoming PvE, still cannot imagine a scenario in which I would like PvP in this game that wouldn't be at least 10x more impressive if they could just code the AI for it Exfil gamers throw fits when they hear it but just think

@RiloeGaming @OperatorDrewski I hope they have something cooked up because that's the biggest thing that hurts this game for me. Not only the that but the heli ride spikes my cpu to 100 each time forcing me to underclock my pc. Only game that takes my pc there! 80-85 when not on helis.

@OperatorDrewski Yeah unfortunately the on rails helicopter and LZ system is just deeply fundamentally flawed in a PvP environment. I can’t see any real way around it besides it being completely reworked from the ground up

@HellbeatX @Noah90544433 @DevilDogGamer @OperatorDrewski Not bossman Beratna.... "bosmang" !

@Noah90544433 @DevilDogGamer @OperatorDrewski the bossman

@ShacosBabygirl Not sure where the rep is coming from because it is casual compared to Tarkov. Plenty of free handouts to keep you in the fight even if you're being dumb on the battlefield. Fairly straight forward game after learning the menus & modification depth.

Why do people say Marathon isnt casual friendly? Free kits and a knife every runner has can win fights even against higher shield players. Rook runs are also an insane way to get stuff very casually with no loss Is it harder? Is it a challenge? Yeah, but doable

@MarathonGG_ Remove thermal sniper optics (can keep the rest), tweak Dire Marsh, and bring in frame generation.

Marathon has been out for almost a month. If you had to pick 1 thing for the team at Bungie to prioritize, what would it be & why? Let us know down below & lets discuss👀

@whereisoutbreak @ZkMushroom Average PvP game experience sadly.

@ZkMushroom Average extraction shooter on PC experince sadly.

Ranked is unfortunately ruined by stream sniper and cheaters on week 2. Some of them have been going at it for 2 weeks straight with lvl 150+. I understand there is better concerns than that but definitely not a good look for ranked and marathon in general. Hopefully we get an update soon on this.

@MarathonGG_ You have to love it. Love when one pulls up on the container I'm in. That's just me leaving as soon as an exfil pops. Not going to play with people who are just using you for loot.

Me when randoms steal all the loot from my kill.

@rick5292 Am I the only unlucky soul whose cpu spikes to 100 temp during heli rides? When on the ground it's 85-90 so I end up underclocking my cpu to get better temps with this game.

WOAH!!! Still early in the day! Let's go! 💪 #GrayZoneWarfare #GZW

@unclegunnar @GamewithDave They are indeed stupid which leads to the illogical hypocrisy that they can't even process

@GamewithDave Because they are hypocrites…or worse: They are stupid. Lol

GAMING HOT TAKE: people who say gaming is “unproductive” will happily binge 5 hours of TV without thinking twice

@Ziegler_Dev A more radical request would be the eradication of thermal sniper scopes. Keep the others thermal optics but the sniper one should go. Leave such long shots to those w/ actual good eyes, not the game delivering the kill on a silver platter for them through dense fog.

@Ziegler_Dev Hopefully melee, # of players on "Thermal Marsh" are apart of that update.

(update about an update: we have some iterations / big balance changes brewing right now and will talk about it soon) but... OFF TOPIC: I feel like as a kid of the 90s and a person who's worked on PVP FPS games for over a decade, I may have taken the first two lines of Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" too much to heart.
