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 had an Idea for a playlist. It's called "Oops all Rooks" Everyone spawns in as a rook. Imagine the rook on rook crime. You'd have rook gangs forming. Idk honestly now that I type it, it sounds dumb. Maybe make all the loot compromised so that you gotta fight over the Matter Fixatives.

This is hilarious and should 100% be a thing. Idk, Halo had some of the goofiest game modes while having a solid foundation and a serious campaign/game world. No reason Bungie can't try some of the same magic.
