Bungie makes Marathon's Cryo Archive map less brutal, blocking spawn rush strats and giving out one free sponsored kit every weekend

Bungie's made some changes to Marathon's titular end game map, the Cryo Archive level of the Marathon ship, to hopefully make it a little less offputting. This continues the developer's campaign to make a spectacularly unwelcoming game just a little more welcoming. Marathon update 1.0.6.2 rolled out today, and among the short patch notes, a focus on Cryo Archive caught my eye. This is very much in line with a recent, larger patch which smoothed some pointy bits in the broader Marathon experience
