@Alexand44189304 @PaulTassi Luke Smith did double primary D2 launch. He also implemented sunsetting and shaders as the best collectibles in game. No thanks, only @joegoroth understood how to make D2 tick and what the players actually enjoyed.

@PaulTassi If anyone is to blame it's this guy. With his never over deliver speech. His never over deliver speech lead to delivering nothing of value or worth. This guy needs to go ASAP and Sony needs bring back Luke Smith and Mark Noseworthy as heads of bungie to revive Destiny again.

So, in summary: - Sony’s $765 million in impairment losses for Bungie means they are downwardly adjusting the value of an asset that I think everyone but Sony realized was probably not worth $3.6 billion. This is not “lost money” in the sense some are thinking of - This wouldn’t be happening if Bungie games were doing great and printing loads of cash. Clearly they are not - Sony is at least publicly backing Marathon per its comments on the call, so the result of all this is not some imminent game/studio shutdown - Sony says it does not expect more big Bungie impairment losses in FY26 - All this is to say there are no guarantees this doesn’t produce something like layoffs and reduced overall investment in games like Marathon, Destiny and future projects. None of this is good news outside of claims of future Marathon plans to try to turn things around. Emphasis on try - I remain very concerned about Destiny

@jaqqardak @PaulTassi D3 isnt happening at least not with Bungie. It may be turned over to another more competent Playstation studio.

@PaulTassi think about it like this @PaulTassi . If there is a chance for a Destiny 3, we would likely be at least 3-5 dev years away from such a thing. And thats a good thing. Destiny 2 must die for Destiny 3 to exist. I am hopeful for a fantastic return to form for the studio in 5 yrs.

@Hurricanehugo13 @MathRockSucked Rooks dont go into cryo

@MathRockSucked I wouldn't be surprise that instead of "stealth matchmaking" it's really been alot of "stealth incomplete lobbies" that they then backfill with Rooks

i'm hearing rumours that it's 4 teams on cryo now... is this true?

@gomyhealngdrone Killed the whole map extracted with 3k the loot is abysmal. Granted 0 events spawned

first impressions of freerimeter - this shit sucks compared to free darsh. 2/3 games so far have been hitting all 5 pois just looking for people and finding nothing. the only fights I've had have been in hauler. intercept =/= lockdown + anomaly. loot sucks, green kits are nice

@illPhysics Sadly if Marathon succeeds they will not allocate funds to Destiny. June update is the swan song and only D3 will rejuvenate the franchise maybe.

“Destiny players want Marathon to succeed, so Bungie can succeed, and therefore push resources back into Destiny, and have Destiny succeed” is the realest shit I’ve read this week

@SneakyBeaver Key based matchmaking is preferred if not outright a setting. 16 of 20 key runs another team also had a key. Statistically impossible

I am not a matchmaking conspiracy theorist by any means but just for a random sample I decided to run a bunch of keys w/ crew fill just to see what I'd get and this was the result. 5 key runs (launching by myself) 4 of the 5 runs had at least 3 teams with keys (two of the runs had a prestige key, one lobby had 4 key teams) 3 of the 5 runs I was paired with another player or duo that also had a key on my team I have never loaded into a lobby key-less where 3+ keys popped off / were looted. Queue times felt much longer than usual. Not implying anything, these are just some goofy stats to look at. Idk about this vs full teams loading in w/ their keys. Take that how you will 🤓

@FreeThrowBo @avy3n Great comp actually, he is also gaining the receiving skills of CMC he is a true Unicorn.

@avy3n Deadass Leveon Bell and Saquon hybrid

2025 Bijan Robinson

@IWilliams95 I trust your eval, we know Blocking is a requirement for this offense.

@jcp243 He will fit with this offense, think of Jeff Wilson and the success he had in this scheme. Kyle’s scheme is Running Back friendly and he can block!

Anyone talking negative about Kaelon Black didn’t watch the college football playoffs and the nation championship, that man runs hard! I wanted him on this team! Bang bang ‼️

@MarathonDevTeam Make the cryo free kit daily. It hurts nothing

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.

@DynastyAngleFF @KP_Show @dynastydogmike @RAanalytics I am very excited for the pick and he doesnt need to be a day 1 guy with our core.

@jcp243 @KP_Show @dynastydogmike @RAanalytics Spot on. That’s the whole point.

Per @RAanalytics, De'Zhaun Stribling recorded the 2nd-fastest time in college football during the past 2 seasons, clocking 22.3 miles per hour. No. 1 was Nyck Harbor this past season. He just beat out Stribling at 22.4 mph. Only 8 players have cracked 22 mph in the past 2 years.

@DynastyAngleFF @KP_Show @dynastydogmike @RAanalytics If he is a dawg like Jennings with his athletic profile look out. I assume that is exactly what Shanny is looking for

@KP_Show @dynastydogmike @RAanalytics What I like most is where he wins: digs, curls, slants. Add to that he blocks at a high level and that matters in a Shanahan offense. He made Jennings a thing and Jennings is by no means a burner.

@sportslarryk What would Kyle look like with a Howie Roseman or Schneider? Probably untouchable tbh

A faulty premise ALWAYS produces a faulty conclusion, BUT if you’re going to wander far away from the consensus personnel opinion, you’d better be right. The 49ers have been successful, but their day 1-2 drafting has not been. They win in spite of their drafting failures. The issue is not the apparent “reaches” in this draft class. The issue is that the #49ers from 2020-2023 took 12 players on days 1-2 of the #NFLDraft and only have Ji’Ayir Brown to show for it on their current roster. That’s an 8% hit rate. Completely Unacceptable by any standard. Shanahan should have 3 rings by now and instead he has none. Does Jed York have what it takes to finesse this situation and get everybody placed in their proper roles and add a top tier young but proven talent evaluator to the mix? If he can do it, I guarantee multiple SBs coming his way. If he can’t, this whole thing implodes at some point.

@ShacosBabygirl 5 keys tonight every time we had other teams with keys 8 for 8 for me.

The marathon meta is literally run a useless blue key and never open it so you get put into key lobbies to farm other teams key

@AlZeidenfeld You never go broke taking a profit. Give me the 50k

Most adult men couldn’t hit a home run off a pitching machine throwing 65 in a big league park. Skenes is out of the question.

@phliximaru @maevesfw That is the issue they are discussing, having 40 rodeo mags etc. I am progressing through gold upgrades as well. But still limited on gold weapons.

@jcp243 @maevesfw I’m not saying I have 40 spare salvage sitting around but it’s starting to add up and in a month?! Yeah, 100%. To me this is the wipe cycle as intended for normal dad gamers. Last month/ two weeks you can ball out

traxus daily and gold barters were a huge mistake that i hope bungie scraps for season 2 all of these gold would be totally fine if they actually were rare. it would make gunfights more intriguing and bring risk to where there is none. dont make them farmable.

@Fuoco136 @Gamesager @BasedLiberty If fills etc didnt exist prob would be an option. Just doesn't work in the game as is.

@jcp243 @Gamesager @BasedLiberty I will say I do kind of wish this game had no duplicate shells on a squad

Recon has made it basically impossible to come back from a 1v3. Its 1000% the worst possible thing they did to the game.

@phliximaru @maevesfw Sounds like you are in the top 1% I played a lot with good players none of us have 40 gold salvage sitting around. We are still using it for upgrades.

@jcp243 @maevesfw Idk man I’m in my 30’s with kids and married and I have ALOT of gold salvage just sitting in my vault as do most of my friends. We might play 2 or 3 hours every other day

@phliximaru @maevesfw Buying 1 gold a day is not the issue at hand. Buying 40 golds off Compiler barters and gold salvage is the issue. Only 1% of players can do this probably less.

@maevesfw What’s your definition of regular player?

@ShacosBabygirl Ran 3 keys last night, every match another team also had a key. I am not saying it exists but feels hard to ignore.
