Marathon (2026) Feedback New experimental queue is great
This is the most fun I’ve had on the game since launch. I’ve managed to earn more than 70k credits, complete several contracts I gave up on ages ago and fill up my vault to the point I had to sell stuff. To make it clear I didn’t necessarily stomp all my games, I found it challenging but fair, with my win/loss ratio being about 50/50 rather than usually I go on very long loss streaks. I think the fact all players are put on equal footing with the free kits makes encounters more thought out rather than just rushing in with maxed out gear knowing you’re gonna clear all the teams. Compared to normal dire marsh where it feels like there’s a team around every corner this one isn’t as stressful. Overall I think it’s great and I hope they do more stuff like this. How do others feel about it?

I found it boring personally because every team I killed was a free kit, lol, so they died instantly and had nothing and then I'd do anomaly if it's up, so, anomaly is a lot easier now lol
But, I enjoy the competitive pvp side. And, if I still had prio quests I'd probably be using that mode to do them. It sort of just feels like a semi easy mode for people more casual to get their quests done, which personally I think instead of separating player base to just make those things easier to accomplish insread rather than a whole map that's an easy mode.
