@Jaiydanimate That's what can take this game to a special level, with the story unveiling as we traverse the levels of the ship. Imagine a future where in five years players can confront Durandal in the AI Control Room or something, on level #15

It was definitely always intended to have a LOT of levels take place on the Marathon itself, but man I can't *wait* to see what they add to it, there could be so many cool levels and locations <3

@MarathonTheGame This one's for the masochists

Access granted. You have found your way to the Marathon. The ice around Cryo Archive cracks and groans. It seems nothing can stop you from getting in. It will be interesting to see if you can get out. 10 AM PT, March 20, 2026

@W0K3_alexHD @shrimp_rider Should read Look to Windward or Use of Weapons, the two best. Use of Weapons is especially one of the most unique and emotionally compelling scifi books ever.

@shrimp_rider a friend recommended The Player Of Games but i didn’t really like it :/ but ive also read The Algebraist, also by banks, and its one of my favorite sci fi books, i still think about it a lot

They're not for everyone, but The Culture is by FAR my favorite space opera series I've ever read They've made all scifi I've read before or since seem absurdly small and petty in the best way, absolutely genre defining stuff

@bearki Outpost is what made me realize this isn't just another extraction shooter, so I'm incredibly excited for Cryo to step it up a notch, but terrified I'll die too much to explore it all.

I playtested this Marathon map when it was just gray box and far from finished. It still hooked me. This map is what made me realize that bungie wasn’t just making another extraction shooter. They’ve made something special and I can’t wait to see how it’s evolved.

@I3loodraven Imagine canonical Tyroshi skins in Fortnite lmao

fortnite should have brought asoiaf skins instead of got. I want to play as howland reed with a shotgun.

@Ziegler_Dev Gotta put them on separate schedules tho surely? I get the reasoning fully, but three days cryo/four days ranked would make more sense surely

Cryo and Ranked are coming and we're excited to see players battle it out over Tau Ceti and traverse into the big scary moon-like ship in the sky. We've put out a few posts about Cryo, poured through the variety of comments and feedback we've seen so far, and wanted to take some time to explain some of the initial decisions we've made around Cryo and Ranked with regards to weekend scheduling. So without further ado, here's what we have been thinking: We are of course always iterating and are open to looking at other options in the future, but the Ranked/Cryo Archive weekend decision is really built around three points: - Preparing: We acknowledge that players will lose a lot of gear on Cryo and Ranked because it is intended to challenge you to your limits. As a result of that, it's important that Cryo and Ranked feel like an event you can schedule towards, grind gear up to do, etc. The loop of spend time grinding gear to spend it in Cryo or Ranked is reflected in this choice as a weekly cycle. - Economy Talk: We have some great rewards on Cryo that kind of break the bank when it comes to economy and power gain. If we were to look at having it open all the time, we'd probably have to adjust how frequently you can earn these rewards so that we don't flood the game with amazing loot all of a sudden. - Logistics Time: Cryo and Ranked both have entry requirements (gear ante) that are built around the idea of you matching with other players on an equal investment level. They also both have a high level requirement to ensure you've experienced enough of the game to understand the challenges inherent to the game. This inherently makes the amount of people in that queue at any time unpredictable. Both of these experiences also need a consistent flow of players in the queue to make sure matches are full to retain the challenge. To reduce the match times and allow players to find matches quicker, making it a scheduled event means more players will show up during that window and feed the queue pool better. We also acknowledge that there are likely some who cannot participate on the weekend or are excited about the experience and want to no-life it for weeks, and we appreciate that. We'll be looking into what we can do to retain these considerations and potentially accommodate this in the future. Things we may iterate on in the future: - Staggering Ranked and Cryo queues more so they overlap less - Looking at changing the days we do either Cryo or Ranked - Changing the ante values of Cryo or Ranked - Looking at any other conditions (solo experience, crew fill experience, etc.) and iterating on it! Marathon is an evolving game and part of evolving is seeing how this initial launch plays out and adjusting as we go =). Thanks for the feedback, keep it coming and we'll update you when we figure out the next evolution.

@BlessedDiamondD @vesseloftauceti As far as the themes and inspiration I got from it as a writer mainly, which also did somewhat grow my perspective more generally as well. Didn't change how I thought so much as expand it, I suppose.

@the3els @vesseloftauceti In what sense? Just like the perspectives and lessons from it I’m guessing? And yea I will :)

I am now learning it’s 3 times, I have not read Project Hail Mary and it’s apparently getting a movie this year

@gmeinersYT I think it's the opposite for me. Cryo being weekend only is absurd and silly. Ranked weekend only is like, fine ig

Gonna keep an open mind about CRYO & Ranked being 'Weekend Only', but this just seems like a classic Bungie move to me. Just illogical decision making. Seems like they are limiting access to make it feel more elusive and drag out content longer. Maybe there is a good reason tho 🤷‍♂️ Ranked being weekend only is insane to me tho. Hoping there is a good reason...

@gifv_Kayla I don't have too bad gear fear now but it really is striking the difference in my success on free kits vs blue kits lol. Every time Im on a blue I get hit from behind early it feels like lol

Speechless lmao I finally got over gearfear for the very first time, brought in a blue shield/blue backpack/blue heals(best I have at this point) and my first key I’ve ever transmuted for a room on Outpost …I died in the first 10 seconds😭

@BlessedDiamondD @vesseloftauceti Oh hell yeah man keep me updated on your progress that book changed my life

@the3els @vesseloftauceti Dude I’ve been reading that and I’m at the soldiers story. So good so far.

You’re laughing, GRRM is soft launching Winds of Winter via Fortnite event and you’re laughing.

@SeQuestoEunUomo @AaronRegunberg @ThirdWayTweet It's literally not. It means billionaires

@AaronRegunberg @ThirdWayTweet I see your point, but it's already being used by antisemites as synonymous with Jews. In fact, that's why they use it. Isn't Third Way just pointing this out?

So @ThirdWayTweet is now trying to say that to criticize the Epstein class to to criticize Jews? Are you freaking kidding me?! You know what endangers Jews -- declaring that "Epstein class" is synonymous with "Jewish." I mean, what the actual fuck?

@notricelord @JessicaLBurbank I have, plenty of them. People aren't one dimensional

@the3els @JessicaLBurbank Never seen a right winger who wants to have marijuana decriminalized nationwide lol

why is the right wing not celebrating the victory of free speech leader and musical artist Afroman

@GorgeousGregB @KafukusSaab @McguirePetrov Tell me you don't know shit without telling me lol. They didn't suck in the 90s lmao, they had Mario fucking Lemeiux, it was truly the ownership that put them in such a bad position. Then we had four bad years and got Sid. Recent years were tough too, but fans were loyal.

@the3els @KafukusSaab @McguirePetrov Yes when they start sucking again we will see how many Penguins fans remain.

Pittsburgh. It’s literally the easiest answer to this

@AndyDay1986 @MichaelBeck56 And we know that he isn't a difference maker at age 42 lol

@MichaelBeck56 The argument will be we haven't got a QB, when in reality everyone knows it's going to be Rodgers.

In what world are the Steelers worse? And on what planet are the Ravens better??

@MichaelBeck56 The one where QB matters

@golDonbear If-man

Harry Potter canonically played 9 quidditch games in six whole years of school #TheBoyWhoLoadManaged #PandemicPotter

@doulbedoink Well that does it, I was pro-Zohran Mamdani until I learned this. Shocked and appalled.

Reports indicate that in October 2018 Rama Duwaji reposted a tweet stating that it was “lowkey bisexual for a grown man to order a milkshake.”

@GorgeousGregB @KafukusSaab @McguirePetrov Previous ownership was horrible just like Pirates ownership is now. Mario saved the team and the city thanked him for it by turning out for the Pens ever since

@KafukusSaab @McguirePetrov Cause the Penguins were going to move to KC in the early 2000s cause noone in Pittsburgh cared

So you're an alien from another planet lmao what the fuck are we talking about here "kids in the nineties NEVER used gay as an insult, I'm SHOCKED AND OFFENDED that Rama Duwaji tweeted this when she was 15" Everyone sees through this, only bots nod along.
