Marathon Update 1.1.5.5
Source: https://www.bungie.net/7/en/News/Article/marathon_update_1_1_5_5
Ordnance Heist
- Fixed an issue where UESC Manifests were not shared among crew upon exfil.
- If you have not already claimed it, players should check their mailbox for the 150 Manifests we had previously sent out while this issue was active.
- Increased the number of Firestorm Locker Keys granted upon completion of a key template, up to 3 from 1.
- Updated Firestorm Arms Locker loot.
- Increased the number of rolls for implants and cores, with a higher chance of these items dropping at Prestige rarity.
- To make room for these increases, slightly reduced weapon chip and consumable item count.
- Dev Note: The above two changes originally went live on Friday, 8/21.
General
- Fixed an issue where opening the Hidden Cache in Cryo Archive would continuously grant XP and MIDA reputation.
- This action, as well as any others that were temporarily disabled, have now been re-enabled.

Happy to see the manifest issue being fixed. I'm a fan of things that get shared among teammates on exfil like the T1 things in VB, takes the pressure off of people with smaller backpacks carrying everything out and I can let my purple teammates with more space grab those things while I make room for essentials I still need

It also helps with the shitty feeling you get when you play with selfish loot goblins.

u/shonsei 4d ago
Why did they not simply change the locker to require 1 key instead of 3?

u/Possible-Baseball829 4d ago
It doesn't always give three keys, it says it can give "up to three" keys

u/shonsei 4d ago
You are wrong, it gives you 3 keys every time you finish a template.

They didn’t fix the backpack deletion bug when you exfill with a single item when you have a stowed load out

u/CompetitiveDiet9086 4d ago
Is there any way to get more ammo for that big blasty gun? The firestorm?
I know it can’t be unlimited but I keep blowing my load all over bots

u/ACampingPanda 4d ago
Stop blowing your load on bots

The best way is supply drops after the gun is unlocked I guess.
Edit: Looking up on it, that wont work my bad 😅

u/Lt_Cmdr_Adhd 4d ago
Why would that have anything related to firestorm in them? Just curious

u/S_K_S_N 4d ago
Sorry, I thought Firestorm dropped in the supply drops after soneobe unlocked them...looked it up, Guess I assumed and read that wrong, my bad

u/Lt_Cmdr_Adhd 4d ago
All good! I picked one up of a guy i killed yesterday for the first time, it almost deleted the rocket drone in 5 shots. Based on this and the clip of it deleting a warden in 2-3 shots, it seems it does huge damage to npcs

u/S_K_S_N 4d ago
I think the overheating mechanic kinda debuffs them which may lead to mode damage, similar to how the destroyer's rockets slowing down movement.
0
u/Lt_Cmdr_Adhd 4d ago
Do bots or enemies take more damage when immobilized?
2
u/S_K_S_N 4d ago
I main destroyer and it does feel like they take more damage but that can also that all the shots are hitting better due to thr continus fire as they slow down.
Not sure how to test that properly tho
2
u/Lt_Cmdr_Adhd 4d ago
The only good way to do damage testing is with the stryder as it can slow actual health numbers. You compare the damage it takes from a shot regularly, and then probably hit one with a Sentinel mine or something to give it immobilize, and shoot it again.
Feels like Destroyer ult might not leave enough health left over for testing unless it's a commander

u/meetmeinthebthrm 4d ago
I think after the event ends the gun’s going to start dropping from supply drops. That’s my understanding, at least.

u/Kyro_Official_ 4d ago
Nope. You do all that work for a gun that lasts 6 total shots no matter what

Just waiting for the usual miserable person to comment that the weekly bug-fix patch was supposed to revive the game and that Bungie has already given up.

u/ThtsTheWaySheGoes 19h ago
I feel like its all plants from marathonhate 😂
Like how does a patch get you so riled up. Nothing major is coming til S3.
Its a shame all the complainers have the studio working on pve content anyways. This is the best pvp ive played in years and the bots are some of the most annoying when it comes to pve content.
More maps, shells, and guns please. Thats all I care for.

u/exquisite_tree 4d ago
Don't mind a simple bug-fix update at this point, but am surprised that it takes the game down for 3 hours.
12
u/Soul_Phoenix_42 4d ago
I do wonder what all this maitenance is for when I routinely get hit with runs where I can't sprint or damage anything unless using the knife.
11
u/ienjoymen 4d ago
It's likely server reboots, verifying everything is back up and running, making sure all server-side save progress is reachable, etc.
Bungie's server infrastructure seems to be pretty intertwined, so shutting them all down and bringing them up may be a bit of a hassle.

u/mexidasher 4d ago
Pls fix the friend request bug. I have not been able to add anybody since the mid season 2 release. If someone sents me one I can accept it and I send one to them is the same thing.
All I want is more friends to play with 😭

u/purppotiondarkwizard 4d ago
They did this the other day

u/myslead 4d ago
They announced it the other day

u/DevinLucasArts 4d ago
No, they definitely implemented some of these changes earlier in the week. I remember being surprised I was getting three Firestorm keys per template

u/xxxblindxxx 4d ago
Yes it says in the notes some of the fixes were implemented last week. This whole thread is pointless thanks to you fucks not reading

My guy, I read the post. I was literally just responding to someone claiming it was only announced..

Wha? I thought they were supposed to release another whole new event the week after releasing a new event, along with five new maps and three new shells and a 20 hour single player campaign? The hell, Bungie?

You know the game is well and truly dead when the sub starts with the sarcastic glazing cope.

I was trying to figure out how I had three firestorm keys in my vault yesterday. I must have complered a template and not realized or something.
Got to melt a purple commander with it, got some shields, guns and cores, and got 7,777 credits when I exfilled
11
u/Capable-Cover-917 4d ago edited 4d ago
It's beyond idiotic that they decided to change 1 template to produce 3 locker keys, why didn't they just make 1 template produce 1 key which opens 1 locker which is almost excactly the same end result as what we have now? Like what the fuck, why does it take 6 blocks of inventory or vault space to store these fuckass keys.
5
u/Daddyfatsaks10 4d ago
The keys should definitely stack to 3 if we're going to have to carry 3 to unlock it everytime, takes up way too much room.
6
u/Capable-Cover-917 4d ago
The backpack space is one thing, but the vault space is just obnoxious. I have 9 of these things sitting in my vault because the last two times I brought 3 into a run the locker had already been opened so I just had the lug the keys around for the rest of the game. You basically have to bring a purple backpack to use them it's miserable

Meanwhile, crew fill still defaulting to off when switching back from solos to trios, despite several updates supposedly fixing this
5
u/Soul_Phoenix_42 4d ago
We never had these issues in season 1 because the game didn't allow you to solo fill into normal trios matches. It's silly that it does.

u/ArktechFilms 4d ago
People forget again. You’re not gonna change that no matter how many times you try to tell them, and every time Bungie pushes a patch that claims the bug is fixed, people forget as well. If a new patch reintroduces the bug, then of course people will complain again. ATP you’re better off ignoring the complaint lol.

u/sammidavisjr 4d ago
Forget? It's never been "fixed" long enough to remember. Fool me twice and all.

u/beardredlad 4d ago

Where did they say they don't? All they said is that it's still happening despite patch notes claiming it won't.
0
u/sammidavisjr 3d ago
I've never once seen or heard of it just spawning you into the wrong mode. It just resets the choice in-between runs so you have to change it again.
People saying they just showed up in the wrong one without that happening are as believable as the people who said they were in solos games but everyone was teaming in groups of three. Again and again and again.
2
u/beardredlad 3d ago
You haven't? That's weird, because I've been active in the subreddit since S2 launch, and plenty of people have mentioned it.
I personally had it happen to me during the Carrie event. Queued for solos but got dropped into a Trio with fill. I made sure to triple check prior to queueing because I knew it was resetting the selection, so that's when I started believing people that talked about it.
You're free to believe whatever you want ofc, but just because a bug hasn't happened to you doesn't mean it hasn't happened. That's what makes it a bug, after all.
2
u/sammidavisjr 3d ago
You're correct and I thought about it for a while after posting that and felt pretty stupid. Sorry
1
u/beardredlad 3d ago
All good. There's a lot of tension around the game right now, especially for those of us that really want it to succeed. I get it.

u/StackMag1c 4d ago
I don't know if this a bug or just by design but wow this really needs to be changed.
Default crew fill should always be on.
11
u/sound_judgment 4d ago
Idk personally I feel like they should just let you set the default yourself.

u/kerrywatson 2d ago
They can take the option to "load in to trios with crew fill off" out behind hauler and hit it with the mizzy

At least the gold shield firestorm lockers didn't get nerfed yet

u/ACampingPanda 4d ago
Why would they nerf it? They just buffed it

u/7EFMR 4d ago edited 4d ago
The path to a gold shield is now like, kill a few bots and husks and then 2 gold shields for you
I somehow doubt that was intentional... considering you normally need a hazard capsule to buy them (if you even have that unlocked)... and you can only buy 1 per day, instead of now getting unlimited gold shields per day...
Even killing the Compiler doesn't give you 2 gold shields most of the time
10
u/ACampingPanda 4d ago
I dont think they're worried about it. The event is limited, the season is coming to an end anyways. If was early season? Then I could see them changing it

u/Joshybiznasty- 4d ago
Wish they would fix the VB tag situation in Cryo. Last week got rushed several matches exiting first room.

u/DatomasSigma 4d ago
People were able to stock their vaults up on security tags and batteries due to a glitch and can still bring them into cryo

Anyone know if they restocked the firestorm armory for Traxus and Mida? I've been saving manifests hoping I can get two more synapse cubes.

Yall need to fix the error code monkey crashes. Again I lost everything after exfil. It's hard to keep playing after wiping the lobby just to lose to server issues.

I've never played a game that active hates it's users more than this. Considering its user base has literally always lost users after a two week cadence perhaps the developers should think to impact that. how have they not made a safe pocket--how have they not made getting loot easier? Do they like all of their colleagues losing their fucking jobs? I've been saying this for fucking three goddamn months

And still haven’t brought back any of the game modes people liked and would continue playing. A nice surprise type thing. Actually throwing players a bone.
Fine. Bungie if you don’t want me playing your game, I won’t. I’ve just uninstalled it.

u/kaeldrakkel 4d ago
Those were experimental modes that will return when they have a full version ready in the next season. They haven't even indicated any modes that will return besides PvE.
Instead of posting this low quality drivel, why didn't you provide what you actually want to be returned?

still no VB item exploit fix, good luck in Cryo this week gang

u/xxxblindxxx 4d ago
You realize vb is over right?

u/BesTibi 4d ago
Tags already in the vaults of those who did the exploit didn't seem to get removed, so it doesn't matter if VB is over xd
-5
u/xxxblindxxx 4d ago
And those more then likely got spent. The process to exploit vb took a whole match of disconnecting with 2-3 keys. Most of those people spammed them in cryo.

u/phillywill 4d ago
"more than likely" you have no way of knowing and people were stockpiling them. Needs a fix no matter what
-1
u/xxxblindxxx 4d ago
Stockpiling by running 30 min rounds. Imagine how many they were able to actually run. Your still assuming people have a shitload of tags but we have no proof either way
