7 Things You Absolutely Shouldn't Do In Marathon
"Stop running around so much. All that's doing is alerting other players, like me, to where you are. Slow down. Crouch. Walk carefully. Listen to your surroundings. There will be moments when running is necessary or smart. But chill and let others run to you, loudly giving themselves away and providing you a perfect chance to ambush them and blast them away."
"Avoid fighting everything that moves. You are going to run out of ammo very quickly, alert enemies and players to where you are, and end up in fights you can't win. Avoid robots if you can. Sneak around a team of runners if you are low on ammo or you're all alone. Just fight smart, and you'll have a better chance of getting off Tau Ceti VI alive."
Marathon is Bungie's new extraction shooter now available on consoles and PC. Players unfamiliar with this genre must adapt their playstyle significantly. The game demands stealth and caution rather than constant action. Running alerts other players to your position, making you vulnerable to ambushes. Engaging every enemy wastes ammunition and attracts unwanted attention, often leading to unwinnable fights. Successful extraction requires careful movement, selective combat, and smart resource management. Players accustomed to traditional shooters must retrain their instincts to survive and escape with valuable loot.
