@NrmalWrld I don’t, and said as much. That doesn’t change the fact that a screenshot of a chart + a trend line has become a common thing to see when trying to discuss games or check in on gaming discussion.

@Tex1090 @PaulTassi Why do you care if people look at charts? They’re there to be a performance metric… this anti-chart movement is bizarre

‘Crimson Desert’ Has Better Player Retention Than ‘Elden Ring’ So Far via @forbes forbes.com/sites/paultass…

@PaulTassi I ran out of characters but that was genuine. I don’t much care for the charts lately (because of those bad actors), but that kind of dive would be interesting to me at least.

@Tex1090 Not a bad idea tbh

@MarathonDevTeam Hullo! Not sure if intended, but post-patch when trying to use Recon’s tracker drone to complete “Defeat enemies with runner abilities” contracts, they were not counting when they previously did. Not sure best place to report bugs so here it is! :D

@Skarrow9 Yes, but also these are just better for quickly differentiating them are they not? Instead of needing to look at a square at a glance and see the colored in body part. The different shapes are just better, but yes further updates can happen for what stats/attributes.

Absolutely not change them back lmao The main complaint imo wasn’t that it was hard to tell a head implant from a leg implant, it’s that you couldn’t tell the 4 different leg implants apart.

@MarathonTheGame What should we be looking for as the differentiator between UESC and Runner with Recon's new pulse? The trailer clip doesn't seem to show a difference, as all pings are a pulsing red diamond for both runner and uesc.

Marathon's mid-season 1 update is live now! youtu.be/D0aXzq9fiaQ

@MidaRunna @TurtleOne_ I’ve found that if it has a claymore on it, it becomes much easier to shoot down.

@TurtleOne_ the drone is hard asf to shoot down

so did they patch the mines on the thief drone or did we all agree it’s too op

@MarathonTheGame What is Med-Drone doing up there? That’s dangerous. Please get down.

Where's Med-Drone?

@MacticsG1 Pretty sure that’s the first time I saw it too, and immediately wrote it off as Grummz grifting lol.

@allsofakehappy THE ORIGINAL SOURCE OF THE $250M NUMBER IS FUCKING GRUMMZ DOING CHICKENSCRATCH MATH??????????

Is there any actual evidence or data that indicates marathon cost $250M to delevop or is that just some shit that was revealed to someone in a dream?

@PaulTassi @ForbesGames I’m sure this will make Marathon discourse even more intolerable. (You reporting it is fine; article good.)

New ‘Marathon’ Sales, Playercount Reports Are Close To Reality via @ForbesGames I checked in about those new Alinea estimates, and those figures are in fact close to the actual numbers at Bungie forbes.com/sites/paultass…

@MacticsG1 Same :( Both modes want you to risk a growing value of gear/loadout, and both want you to build a vault throughout the week, only to then have to pick between one or the other for a given weekend to make any significant progress.

man i absolutely hate that ranked AND cryo archive are both ONLY available on the weekends...

@Onepeg Yeah... Cryo + Ranked being weekend locked for at least this season is just not a good choice. Especially when ranked will be on one map and likely not Cryo this weekend.

Cryo opens tomorrow. However: I had said in a prior tweet that it looked to be only on weekends. Not a fan of this idea.

@MarathonTheGame Is both Cryo and Ranked locked to weekends? That seems... annoying.

@MarathonTheGame When is this due? Just making sure I don't miss the deadline.

Marathon's unique ranked system can be a lot to understand when you're new to it. We've prepared a resource to help you get used to figuring out score targets, loss penalties, and more.

@falloutplays Honestly would not be a fan of that implementation if that's the case.

... what if Cryo is a trials-esque activity that only becomes available on certain days of the week?

@Ziegler_Dev Looking forward to it! I hope one of the codex entries isn’t hinting at it being a weekend only location; but regardless it’s going to be exciting.

As we're getting closer and closer to seeing the doors open for the Cryo Deck of the Marathon Ship, please be advised when it does open: surviving will be a challenge for even the most prepared of crews. (Everyone will have something new to learn). But we believe for those of you who are brave enough, it'll be a journey that you'll remember. TL;DR: Cryo Deck is a Pinnacle Challenge in more ways than one.

@th3jmanx @Ziegler_Dev I'd be surprised if that's not one of the data points they're going to be keeping an eye on during this two week test.

@Ziegler_Dev Appreciate this Ziegler, but I'd highly recommend you talk to the folks on the Destiny 2 side of things and how Duos affected both Comp and Trials. Dividing the player population into smaller pools is never healthy!

Alright everyone we're going a bit rogue here. We have a bit of an experimental feature that's in development we want to test and we'd love for you to help. As of Wednesday morning 3/18 at 10am PT, we'll be enabling a limited time duos queue on Perimeter only to test how the game plays with crews of 2 at a wider scale. Important things to note: -- It will be on Perimeter only for now. -- The test will last about 2 weeks (but we might cut it off early or elongate it depending on what's going on). -- You can only enter duos with a premade group of you and another friend. (no matchmaking solo into duos). -- You will be matched with other duos only. -- You can select "Perimeter - Duo" from the zone select screen to access it. (not the final intended ux flow right now) -- Some things will be a bit jank. Just a note: this is a bit of an experimental feature so we expect to learn some things along the way and make changes to future versions of this. This likely won't be the final implementation of how it would look and flow in the game, but for now it was easiest way for us to get it to you all to help us test. We're excited to run this experiment with you all. Pending what we learn, we're hoping to expand duos as a queue in the future and we wanted to take this first step sooner than later so we could understand how it affects our game better before investing a lot more time in fleshing out the feature. Additionally, this is unlikely to be the last experiment we run, so look forward to more as we continue to evolve Marathon. FOR SCIENCE!

@MarathonDevTeam Oh hell yeah.

@Onepeg A middle ground between launch and current loudness will likely be fine; doesn't seem like they're going to pull it all the way back or even further. The sound change didn't really change my crews gameplay much since we chased shots most of the time regardless.

THEY ARE GUNS GUNS ARE LOUD sigh. catering to gamers that don't play extraction games is tiiiiiny dingus behavior boys.

@stevenspohn They enjoy a good snooze.

SHOW ME YOUR PET. I need a timeline cleanser. My feed is full of people supporting Bigotry and anti-vaxx because I can't help but try to use my platforms to speak out against the darkness. So, for a positive day, show me your favorite floof. Here's mine.
