[Sammelthread] Marathon

Ich finde es ja super, dass die mit solchen "Games" so richtig auf die Schnauze fallen.

Schade für die Devs, welche so einen Shit auch noch programmieren müssen.

Die glauben einfach daran, dass von 10 200Mio $ Service-Games, eines das nächste Fortnite wird und dann 10, 20 oder 30 Mrd. einspielen könnte.

Da wird Roulette mit tausenden Entwicklern gespielt...
 
zumal du die leute auch erstmal von den etablierten spielen wegkriegen musst

das hat schon zu WoW zeiten nicht funktioniert. kein spiel egal wie krass es als "WoW Killer" gehyped wurde, hat es geschafft.

WoW hat sich nur durch sich selbst und die zeit etwas besiegt weil die leute die damals damit angefangen haben nun älter geworden sind und MMORPGs nicht mehr das Ding sind.
 
Mit Tarkov und Hunt gibt es halt schon zwei Extractionshooter. Da rein zu kommen als Neuling ist sehr schwer.

Ebenso wie die ganzen neuen Taktikshooter gegen CS2, Siege und Valorant ankämpfen müssen.
 
Erinnert mich an diese Liste die in letzter Zeit mal rumging:

Nummer #10 ist jetzt wohl "teamLFG".
 
Das Spiel wurde verschoben:

Angekündigte Änderungen:
Some of our immediate focus areas will be:
  • Upping the Survival Game
    • More challenging and engaging AI encounters
    • More rewarding runs, with new types of loot and dynamic events
    • Making combat more tense and strategic
  • Doubling down on the Marathon Universe
    • Increased visual fidelity
    • More narrative and environmental storytelling to discover and interact with
    • A darker tone that delivers on the themes of the original trilogy
  • Adding more social experiences
    • A better player experience for solo/duos
    • Prox chat, so social stories can come to life

Ein neues VÖ-Datum gibt es dann irgendwann im (Spät-)Herbst.
 
wird halt umgebaut werden müssen wegen dem diebstahl des artstyles

wird aber keiner zocken.
 
Moment …

Bungie hat keinen "Stil" geklaut (das geht schonmal nicht; den Stil "graphic realism" gibt's nämlich schon deutlich länger), sondern explizit eine Vielzahl an Werken/Arbeiten eines Künstlers.

Das "Korrigieren" (suchen und entfernen aller gestohlenen Werke etc.) dieses Diebstahls ist das Eine.

Die oben erwähnten Änderungen kommen ja noch zusätzlich hinzu.
 
 
Es sieht schon cool aus das Setting. Vielleicht wird es ja doch noch was.
 
 


40,- für die Standard-Edition.
60,- für die Deluxe-Edition.

Gab ein Event in China:

Thread #1: https://www.reddit.com/r/Marathon/s/hQAEpWntBn
  • First hands on event outside of NA, indicating Bungie's emphasis on the Chinese community.
  • Blown away most by the expanded worldbuilding/narrative. The tutorial & faction intros give clear origins and motivations. Players can even discover the will of Dr. Strauss, a key-figure who connects many narrative threads from the original Marathon games.
  • Personal impressions are that the PvE is extremely challenging. AI is constantly calling in reinforcements as time goes on so there is no "clearing the map". Environmental hazards like poison gas vents, perimeter turrets and landmines everywhere as well.
  • Meds/shields are expensive to buy from vendors that by the end of the play session, the reviewer could not even afford them unless he sold all of his buffs
  • Early combat or PvP is almost guaranteed to be a net loss, expects the high-risk exploration experience to push players to focus on missions to upgrade base stats. Expects there to be little to no player co-operation, calling every enemy player a loot pinata
  • As for objective improvements since alpha, UI seen a massive overhaul but still finds the UI logic a bit awkward
  • In-game visuals also seen a massive upgrade, environments giving off a much darker and mysterious tone comparing it to Pathways into Darkness and the original Marathon trilogy
  • Skill distribution across all classes is fairly balanced allowing for flexible team compositions (multiple Shells have movement abilities). Cosmetic shop and battle pass were unavailable at the event but each runner has six base appearances tied to each faction
  • 28 guns and each has 2 or more skins with some even altering the weapon model. Each gun has one charm slot and three sticker lots which player can unlock by completing challenges

Thread #2: https://www.reddit.com/r/Marathon/s/zLG1OeTwJV
  • Event was in Shangai in early Feb, first Bungie event outside of NA
  • Demo was fully localized, featuring polished & natural Chinese text and VA. Marathon may become one of the first SIE first party games with full Chinese VA
  • Reviewer’s personal impressions are that the game does not encourage prolonged fights for both PvE and PvP
  • Gunplay is top-notch and compares the aim-assist to Destiny 2 with each gun having defined AA values
  • PvP gunfire will attract distant AI transforming them into “world police” to eliminate both sides in one sweep.
  • PvE robots are not cannon fodder, they have defined roles with some turning invisible for ambushes, some deploying shields and some focusing on melee
  • Boss robots function as tactical hubs giving real-time orders and co-ordinating flanks against players or sending mobs to camp downed players.
  • AI has improved since the alpha, they are not “omniscient radios” anymore that respond instantly to every sound and reinforcements are no longer endless waves. The pressure remains formidable but players have breathing room.
  • Ammo was extremely scarce and the AI robots rarely dropped ammo and the supply crated yielded very little, leading to early extractions after just 1-2 engagements
  • Loot distribution felt extremely incosistent, with some POIs having virtually nothing to loot which sucked as the PvE fights already depleted ammo/meds.
  • The visual/art style makes certain weapon attachment icons extremely abstract making it hard to quickly identify them in high-pressure situations. This can waste precious seconds or even get your loot stolen.
  • The reviewer was “hoarder-type” player so he was just looting in the shadows solo and wondered “why even fight”
  • Personal impressions of the reviewer shifted from mild indifference to genuine anticipation
  • Interview with Joe Ziegler confirmed that each season is 3 months (12 weeks long)
  • Development dreams and even player expectations (PvE only mode?) will be saved for the future
  • No safe pocket system at launch, may consider it in future seasons based on player feedback
  • No aggression-based matchmaking like Arc Raiders
  • Larger maps will support up to 18 players (6 squads) and smaller maps will support 12 (4 squads)

Muss sagen nach der Verschiebung und Neuausrichtung gefällt mir das Spiel eigentlich. Mal sehen ob es mich catchen kann, was Arc Raiders leider nicht geschafft hat.
