Marathon Update 1.0.6.3
The one about Grenade stacks.
Item Economy
*Map Events *
- Lockdown on Dire Marsh, Intercept on Perimeter, and Convoy on Outpost can now drop Prestige Salvage as part of their loot rewards.
*Armory *
- Fixed an issue where Hurting Hands V4 could be claimed for free more than once.
*C.A.R.R.I Armory *
- Increased quantity of salvage dropped from Deluxe C.A.R.R.I. Salvage Crate across all rarities.
- Fixed an issue that caused C.A.R.R.I. weapons to not appear if that weapon was identical to a voucher offer the player currently possessed.
- Previously non-refreshing C.A.R.R.I. offers will now have their stocks reset weekly. As part of this change, the Superior Key Template's stock will only reset up to 1. This does not affect this item's starting stock of 5 or any remaining stock above the weekly reset limit.
Combat Equipment
*Grenades *
- Adjusted in-run stack sizes for the following grenades:
- Stack size reduced to 1
- EMP Grenade
- Chem Grenade
- Frag Grenade
- Heat Grenade
- Flechette Grenade
- Stack size reduced to 2
- Claymore
- Rooks and Sponsored Kits that would come with 3 Claymores will now only receive 2 instead.
- Stack size of 3 (no changes)
- Proximity Sensors
- Smoke Grenades
- Ammo Crates
- Decreased barter limits from 10 to 3 per day.
Weapons
*Stryder M1T *
- Prestige Precision Optic Mod now distinguishes between UESC and enemy Runners.
User Interface and Experience
- Fixed an issue where runner eliminations were incorrectly showing on the player HUD.
Contracts
- Tier 3 Contracts that have a chance at either Enhanced or Deluxe salvage now always display Enhanced salvage as the baseline reward.
Zones
*Cryo Archive *
- Added secure vents to prevent spawn rushing in Cargo and Index.
*Dire Marsh *
- Fixed an issue could prevent the final exfil from spawning.
*Ranked *
- Adjusted Holotag entry requirements: Gold Holotags can now enter High Stakes, and Platinum Holotags can now enter Low Stakes.
Platforms
*PS5 *
- Fixed an issue where players were unable to 'join crew' via a platform invite if crew privacy is set to 'invite only' in game.

Got two of my friends hooked on this game. Another bought but he's not that into I don't think. One of them left work early just to come play with us. Two of us are really good and the other one just spends his whole time confused and constantly asking questions. Which is weird because in FPS games he's usually the top player but he just sucks here.
We were on outpost and spent way to much time in pinwheel and had to run to a exfil. Only one of us made it. Those damn things in the air slowed me down at the last second and I missed the exfil. I would have made it if it wasn't for that BS. We did drop another team trying to run for the same exfil so that was nice.

There will probably be a State of Play just before the Summer Game Fest next month. So my guess is they show it there.
Another cracking review about Marathon:
I'm glad we're getting these types of reviews about Marathon. Players who recognise how awesome this game is.
I'm honestly absolutely fucking tired of the hate this game is getting and the obsession with it's player numbers.

The CCU threads on here are the weirdest shit. Game's probably gonna die but the obsession with numbers is mental haha.

It currently has 7,803 players online. That is around 39-41 players per country in the World.

Honestly, who gives a shit? It's a video game, we'll all survive it's eventual demise.

I mean it makes big difference because some people already cant even get into solo queues...

I already said the game is probably cooked. It's just REALLY weird to be obsessed about it.

I play Smite 2 on PS5 all the time. It has a 6k 24 hour peak. I get into games all the time in all the different modes Joust (6 players), Conquest (10 players) Arena (10 players). Not sure about the rest of the world but I never have issues getting into games. I'm not to worried about Marathon but even if it falls off I've gotten my $40 worth and more.

Don't think this dude has played it. Not worth bothering with him.

Of course not. We all know the folks on the board who play the game.
