[(PC) Empyrean: Railjack General Feedback Megathread]

Current loot collection range essentially discourages cooperating on board the Railjack and takes you out of the game completely.

Problem:

• The amount of times I've seen people just go into archwing and fly around 1-2km away blowing up ships and ensuring that people on the Railjack get most likely none of the loot is insane. It's pretty damn selfish and annoying, but I can understand why people do it. They want to maximise the amount of stuff they get, who doesn't?

 

• I've found myself increasingly not focusing on what's happening and the cool space battle in favour of looking to see where the ship I just killed blew up, then having to squint to see what resource they dropped (As the resources are so damn hard to see). This is boring, tedious and annoying. I want to be able to move onto the next ship and not linger.

 

• Jetting over to where a ship blew up (Not where it was killed, that would be too close to you) usually costs a decent amount of boost and will most likely get you hit several times. This alone would cause a lot of loss of loot during those fights where there are about 10-15 fighters around you because you simply cannot afford the boost to or pay attention to where that one ship died. That and it's not fun. We're not here to jump over to where things just died, it's not as easy or quick as it is in normal Warframe. 

Solution:

Either

• If someone gets some loot, everyone else in the party gets it. That might also add an archwing job of flying around collecting loot. Add an increased suction range as well, even after the buff it feels minuscule.

Or

• Unlimited suction range. This is probably the simplest solution, and ensures everyone gets loot and doesn't miss out on anything valuable. This would also make progress faster as you'd be getting more things to scrap/use.  In my opinion this would be the most fun solution and feel more like normal Warframe where you're constantly bombarded with small bits of loot.

 

I've seen a few people suggest having loot pings, but I don't really think this is a good idea as you're still having to fly about the place with a Railjack and given that we're in space, we're talking large boring distances. However, if you were to use my first solution, then archwings would have a very important role collecting all the fallen loot as the battle progressed

 

Apart from that and all the various blackscreens Railjack's damn good. But the looting system is really killing it for me and a lot of other people I'd imagine.

[Equinox Prime incorrect ability descriptions]

When viewing the ability descriptions from the in-match menu or arsenal menu the day and night form descriptions should be swapped for all abilities and the included info graphic that appears when you mouse over the abilities. Also the tips appear to be wrong.

 

I'm pretty sure this has been a bug since Equinox Prime's release as I remember briefly noticing it back then but as I didn't use Equinox much or use her abilities at all I never thought much of it.
