  1. That doesn't do anything to fix the problem described.

    When plugging the flash drive into a new computer, and running the launcher, the launcher acts as if it doesn't know where it's installed to and asks for a location.

    Which is dumb, warframe is installed to the same location as the launcher, just one directory up.

    It then reverts to some older version, then deletes a bunch of files and redownloads them.

     

    It's clearly checking some registry key for the install directory, and upon not finding it, falls back to some default behaviour.

     

    What it SHOULD do is check it's local directory tree for the needed files, and download only what's missing, and not ASSUME that everything is broken.

  2. I play warframe, a lot. On many different computers.

    3 different ones at work, 4 different ones at home.

     

    There's 0 reasons to have Warframe installed on every single computer.

    I run it off a very fast USB 3 flashdrive (SanDisk Extreme Pro 128 GB: http://www.sandisk.com/products/usb/drives/extremepro3) and this works great on the computers, even on the USB 2.0 ports at work, I usually beat people into missions.

     

    I just played Warframe at work off this flashdrive on Sunday the 24th. Everything went fine, was all up to date.

     

    Today I let my son play on my computer and played on my laptop that I haven't used in about a month.

    So I plug in the flash drive, and I run the launcher on my laptop. But the first thing that happens is that the launcher downgrades itself to a version from January or earlier and restarts.

    Then it checks for updates, decides that the up to date files on my flashdrive or out of date, deletes them, then starts downloading 1.5 GB of data.

     

    Basically the launcher deletes, then re-downloads files for no reason.

     

    I don't know if this is because the launcher checks some registry keys instead of actually doing a file checksum to see if the files are actually up to date. If that's the case, that's a pretty dumb archaic way of checking install integrity.

     

    Please fix this, I've spent almost a thousand dollars on this game, and I'm at the point where these things happen and I stop playing for days/weeks out of pure disgust.

    If I only have 40 minutes to play a few quick survivals, but I have to spend 35 minutes redownloading up to date files.....That leaves 0 time to play the game. IE there's no point in continuing to play.

     

    And why is the downloader so.....god.....damn....slow?

    My internet here speed tests at 15Mbps, yet I never see this downloader go over ~4 Mbps (~504KB/s). I can load up Steam and start a game download and get 1.7-1.9MB/s without any dips.

  3. I have a similar issue in which if I alt tab the game can sometimes become increasingly unstable. It will randomly pause, and the pauses start getting longer and more frequent.

    To the point I have to Alt+F4 to get my computer back. Then starting the game again usually fixes this.

  4. Yeah it's in the notes which is why I hate this update.

     


    Fixed held melee attacks being usable in mid-air, causing a ‘gliding slam’ onto an area.  Slam attacks will now drop players directly to the ground.

     

    Seriously, with all the bugs, they use their time to remove a feature that was implented a while ago.....F*** you DE, F***....you.

  5. This used to be great up until the latest major update.

    You used to be able to jump, then press and hold quick melee "E", and then you'd fly at your target and do a slam attack.

     

    Now I can't do a slam attack unless I'm falling, then I can. What gives, why would you change this?

     

    Go to 13 seconds in this video I uploaded a while ago:

     

     

    You can see me to a jumping slam attack. DE fix this, you can't do this anymore. Why would you take features OUT?

  6. I just had the same problem. I just soloed for 30 minutes survival with Nekros. At least 15 fusion cores dropped.

    I go to fuse some mods and I have 1 (One) god damn fusion core in my inventory. Where the hell are the rest of them?

     

    Come on DE, I don't have time for you guys to screw us out of 90% of our drops, just to get us to grind more.

     

    This should NEVER EVER EVER @(*()$ HAPPEN!

    Why in the hell are you still having these problems? A fusion core drops? Add +1 to counter.........Do we need to crowdfund some programming training camps for you?

  7. What I get really annoyed with is say there's 3% left on LS, and I try to activate a LS, that takes 3-4 seconds, and boom, LS disappears and I have to rush to exit.

    Why.....why in the hell do the life support modules disappear? All that should happen is the same thing as when a window is broken; shields slowly drop, then HP and then death.

     

    Give us a chance to get some more LS.

  8. I think it's a bug personally.  Players should auto-extract if the host extracts  simple.. either that or let them continue fighting on.. the key is already used anyway when the host extracts so it won't be refunded back to the host because he extracts so I don't get why remaining players are to be punished.

     

    Yeah absolutely, if the host has the final say in the outcome of the mission, then their vote to extract should overrule the clients and the mission should end as successful. Anything else is purely BS

  9. Good suggestions, but I have another one; borrow a page from the World of Warcraft book.

    Once you start running missions with maxxed gear, you still get affinity, but it doens't do anything.

     

    Divide by 10 and convert to credits.

    So 100,000 affinifty would be 10,000 credits.

  10. This should never happen:

    See that drop on the ground?

    In missions in which you don't get the chance to get to extraction and the mission just ends, there could be 30 drops within 10 feet of you, and you have no option to pick them up.

     

    On missions where it just ends like 10 defense waves, items should be auto picked up.

    It breaks my heart to see drops on the ground, not picked up.

  11. Like rocket jumping and bunny hopping in Quake1/2/3, it was an unintentional side effect that players discovered.

     

    Quake would suck without those features, and Warframe would be quite boring and slow moving for me without the extra mobility. I LOVE flinging myself all over the map with my Tipedo, so much FUN and makes you feel so powerful.

     

    I've watched other people play this game, and they just run everywhere. Even if they could do something faster they don't, they sprint and it's so BORING.

  12. It's really tedious to go to the map, find an alert, go to said alert, find that it's either corpus or infested or grineer etc, then have to leave the navmap, go to Arsenal and "upgrade" weapons/frames with the appropriate loadout, then go back to the navmap, pick the alert then go in.

    Then rinse repeat for every mission after that.

     

    I usually play random missions, preferring mission types over enemy types, so I'm constantly changing loadouts.

     

    What I'm asking is if DE could implement a loadout selection screen for each slot (Frame/Primary/Secondar/Melee/Kubrow/Sentinel), where we could pick from the three loadouts, right there on the navmap.

     

    If there is already something like this and I've missed it, can someone please point this out?

     

    Something like this, I know this is really ugly, but you get the idea:

  13. I've noticed that when playing with laggy hosts, doing things like slide>spin attacks, or jump>melee>fly through the air, are a lot harder to do/don't work as well.

     

    Mostly due to the increase in time it takes to transition from the run to the slide etc.

     

    Why would the server/host latency affect my ability to move around?

     

    It gets pretty bad too, like you can't jump up to certain areas and get rewards like you can when playing with a fast host, or solo.

     

    So I ask again, why are my key presses affected by host lag?

  14. I get this some times, I was just playing a syndicate exterminate mission and I was hunting around for the last honour mark, when my friend texted me in clan chat.

     

    I clicked on his tab in chat and started typing a message and the mission failed.

     

    There's no timer, why does it fail?

     

    And just noticed that now when I went back into the ship, I can't see my portrait in the top left anymore and can't click on the menu button.

     

    Wow what a S#&$ty bug.
