      It looks like Playstation's version of Splatoon. Also I really hope they don’t pull a Destiny and they keep the artstyle grounded in Sci-Fi. Hate how fantastically and ornate Destiny became.

        Marathon was too high IQ. They just took some concepts from it, produced a good FPS, and called it a day. Halo is really not the special game you think it is. It landed at exactly the right place, and the right moment. But yeah, for most of Bungie employee, they were just reselling old stuff and sending it into the dark.

        With a new engine. And some real gameplay improvement, which ultimately took the entire Xbox by surprise.

        Point is, most of those people have since long departed from Bungie, sometimes literally departed. Bungie couldn't recreate a Halo to save its life - Bungie can certainly not recreate a fricking Marathon to save its life, too.

          Christopher Barrett the new Marathon game director has been there since 1999 and Jason Jones one of the co-founders is still heading the company to this day there are still quite a few of the old guard working there with influence.

            I'll acknowldge it when I see it. Marathon is a fricking flawed masterpiece - but it was a fricking flawed masterpiece written with two or three layers of meanings by absolute autists. You can absolutely reproduce that, today, but I highly doubt that Bungie, as a company, can do it.

            Most likely, it will be a mediocre shooter, one of which we had for years. Maybe a decent shooter. We'll all say it's decent, we'll forget it in one year, and the company will keep going.

            I do really wish to be pleasantly surprised, but I don't think I will.

        The vidoc talks about entering a special zone, then doing tasks inside it to unlock it for others. Not exactly single player, but it sounds like the next-step for Destiny raids. Doing stuff in a persistent server that unlocks content across the entire game. The problem will be data-mining making these things not last more than a week being a secret.

    • 10 months ago

      Atleast they are doing the smart thing and using persistent servers, instead of session based ones. So instead of being in a Tarkov queue for 5m and dying in 30 seconds, you just load into a server that is always going. The problem I see with this is how they will deal with loot, anything that works about Tarkov doesn't translate with persistent servers. Cycle Frontier has events that go over the whole map, and if you are outdoors you are randomly teleported somewhere which is also a loot-refresh.

      The time limit on your character is probably how long you can stay in the map, and I assume there are ways to extend that.

    a probably pay to play BR doesn't sound like it will sell well though. This isn't CoD and Tarkov players will still probably play Tarkov

    To clarify all the complaints about controverisal visuals change.

    Runners are not members of Marathon crew nor Tau Ceti colony denizens.

    Runners are part of UESC and MIDA(although they changed name), they came to Tau Ceti colony either after receiving Leela's message after about a century or they came to Tau Ceti after Durandal returned to Earth with the gift of alien technology as it was shown at the end of Marathon 1. Either way, it wouldn't make sense
    to see the same gritty primitive technologies as in the first games, considering time passed since Marathon vessel launch (300 - 400 years) and possible usage of alien technology resulted in rapid technological advancement.

    Although, I will admit, this change is quite radical atmosphere-wise. I hope game would be not so vibrant and flamboyant and devs just went all-in in trailer, but I am still skeptical about it.

    I like Marathon, but Marathon was done when the entire industry was three geeks in their garage, all touting about obscure stuff. And writing the most mind bending story they could have written - hell, it's the perfect example of a WTF I just did read story.

    Inifinity is the perfect example of what happens when the geek in charges of a sequel try to outdo the WTF factor of the previous works, which was already WTF^10.

    All of that is lost, nowadays. Do you really believe Bungie, the Bungie of today, is able, willing, and capable to create anything like Marathon? Do you? Nah, most certainly not. It will be an okay rehash, and worth of a good laugh on Ganker, for several months, until we all grow bored of it.
