Oh boy this might not end pretty

I've heard this cloud processing promise before from Microsoft when they pitched it with Crackdown. Turns out they couldn't get it working so why is this going to work?

Lon3wolf2470d ago

As I understand it this is full game streaming and not trying to offset compute power, maybe that's the difference?

Maybe in 5 years, with Fiber and no bandwidth caps.

5G is years from getting widescale adoption in North America. I work for a Telecom Company and know this. Don't listen to "we are 5G ready" marketing crap we put out that covers 5 sectors in some city and tries to say we are everywhere.

5G is susceptible to lag like any wireless technology. Its fast, but not really that great for widespread adoption for task critical tasks that happen in graphics "grunt work".

That being said, it's going to be a long while before 5G becomes readily available, and even when it is more available, the cost to buy in with the hardware required is going to stay at a premium.

Marathon Development Update

Marathon was slated to launch on Sept. 23, 2025 across Xbox, PC, and PlayStation, but Bungie will share the new release date in the fall.

Probably best just cancel it. The game has flop written all over it.

-Foxtrot1d 6h ago

Yeah, you can delay it as much as you want but you ain’t gonna wash that stink off.

Killer2020UK1d 4h ago

It will lessen though and possibly make all the difference if it launches in a state that rectified a lot of the issues people had with it. A LOT of ifs of course.

If you really gotta play ... play the better extraction shooter this year : ARC Raiders

Delaying the inevitable. Bungie hoping the negative publicity will blow over. 🙄

darthv721d 5h ago

They can't cancel it until a themed controller has been released first... like concord.

ZeekQuattro1d 1h ago

I anxiously wait for that and a Marathon Secret Level episode.

$10 says it'll have the stolen artwork on it lolol

If they were absolutely certain about the quality of Marathon, then they had not delayed it just now.

So they've basically just confirmed what everyone, well, a lot of people saw: Marathon is not ready yet, still no soul to be seen.

"Doubling down on the Marathon Universe"

They're doubling down on soul, thank goodness this feedback illuminated that for them...

RaidenBlack1d 2h ago

and N4G was littered with comments like : Marathon looks really good, maybe you're a hater and the likes blah blah ... especially under articles which compared it with Arc Raiders ....
