Marathon’s four-day Server Slam wrapped up yesterday, leaving me within the lurch till I get my palms again on it on Thursday—a sentiment shared by fellow PC Gamer Morgan Park after sinking 21 hours into it over the weekend.
In the course of the Server Slam, Bungie have been monitoring your each transfer, from how many individuals made it out of Tau Ceti alive every match, what number of UESC robots we killed, and crucial stats: how a lot Premium Tick Milk and Drinkable Cheeseburgers we hauled outta there.

The reply is 145,822 instances of Premium Tick Milk and a whopping 384,866 Drinkable Cheeseburgers. Neither merchandise sounds too tasty however they’re thought-about beneficial gadgets in-game, fetching a good worth for taking them off-world. And simply in case you are pondering a liquid burger sounds delicious, check out the can—full with two straws for you and a pal to slurp—and you will see the tagline “Tastes like meat. Is not.” Yeah, I am not offered.
As for the decidedly much less necessary statistics Bungie shared from the Server Slam, it is clear that issues obtained fairly bushy on Tau Ceti. Out of 16,554,683 deaths, 9,152,844 of them have been brought on by different gamers. Crunching the numbers, that is simply over 55% of deaths being the results of PvP, with the UESC robots claiming the opposite 7,401,839.
In case you’ve performed Marathon, then that is seemingly not all that stunning. The UESC are completely deadly, particularly whenever you’re a brand new participant—I noticed a number of gamers complaining about dying within the tutorial, in order that’s plus one to the UESC. Nonetheless, with very restricted ammo and therapeutic, I might say extra skilled gamers have been rather more environment friendly towards the UESC, typically avoiding them fully, leaving different gamers as the last word grim reaper on Tau Ceti.
I might be very concerned about evaluating these PvP vs PvE statistics with Arc Raiders, the place the majority of mine and most other players, it seems, are oddly peaceful for an extraction shooter. Anecdotally, I’ve died to Arc machines way more than I have to other players, which is a sharp contrast to Marathon.
On a similar note, Bungie has revealed the exfil rate for each of the Server Slam maps, and it’s looking pretty dire. Brace yourself: Perimeter had a depressing 41.8% exfil rate, but Dire Marsh clocked in at an even lower 35.6%. The moral of the story is that you shouldn’t take your best gear into Dire Marsh, because you’re almost certainly going to lose it. But hey, that’s just being generous and gifting your loot to someone else, so it’s not all bad.
And with lethal UESC and even more deadly players, leading to a gravely low chance of extracting in one piece? Yeah, I’m not surprised that the stealthy Assassin ended up being the most popular Shell of the Server Slam.
