Bungie patches Marathon's slide cancel movement tech, says no movement freaks allowed: 'Unbounded movement, while expressive and clip-worthy, is ultimately unhealthy for the pace of play'

Bungie has patched Marathon to remove a slide cancel movement exploit that allowed players to gain unintended momentum. The studio stated that rapid repositioning must have a meaningful cost, and unbounded movement is unhealthy for the game's intended pace. This change aims to maintain a specific pace of play and prevent exploits going forward.
