Hello there.
I started playing Warframe about two weeks ago, I have about 45h in it. In last couple of days I noticed that my right eye get bloodshot after playing Warframe. Warframe is currently the only game I have installed, but before it I played Project Cars 2, and I would run 2h long races in one sitting without any issues.
I turned off motion blur, bloom, depth of field, film grain, color correction, gpu particles. AA is on medium. FOV is at max value.
Vsync is on, so the fps is locked at 60.
Is there anything else I can do?
On the side note, I wear contact lenses. I have prescribed eye drops that I use couple of times per day. About a month ago I had a regular check with my ophthalmologist and all was good.
This is going to sound facetious, but it comes from a good place.
If you honestly think that a gaming forum is the place to get health issued addressed, you have larger issues than a bloodshot eye.
See a health professional, and for the love of all that's holy learn to take a break every now and then, because it's far more likely to be stress related than to be anything to do with the visual settings of the game (or of any game for that matter).

But for sure we’ll get items for St. Patrick’s day like clockwork.
So your solution to this would be to reduce both Martin Luther King day and Black History Month to tacky racial stereotyping (just like St, Paddy's Day)?
You're also talking about personalities and situations which have no analog within the Warframe Universe, and no celebration/recognition outside of the U.S.

If by my post you are under the impression I leave all the time,
Oh, absolutely not, I was actually agreeing with you on most points.
The point I was making is that somebody shouldn't just expect people to stick around forever just because the mission is type 'endless'; we've all got different reasons for joining the mission, but relic missions are generally because people want to open relics and/or get void traces, right?
So depending on how many relics you have to open, how many traces you need to collect or which particular parts you are farming for, that's going to impact how long you want to stick around. As long as I've got relics to open, I'll generally stick with it until others start quitting or I run out/cap my traces limit.
Somebody can't expect people just to stay around if there's no need for them to do it and if you haven't previously agreed to do it.

It fully depends on the host's PC, the ping is a very minimal thing.
I can get games with 30 ping that lags like a mofo and where mobs look like they belong in a Benny Hill episode. Then I can have games with 150 ping that run smoothly. If the host has a toaster or a tater the ping wont matter.
This. After spending over a decade as a network engineer, I still get a red mist come over me when somebody asks 'What ping do I need?'...
Not only is ICMP pretty much the last thing that ANY devices prioritize a response to now, people get way too hung up on what 'big numbers' actually mean:

I personally leave when:
1. People run around like idiots most of the time, so it's harder to get traces and it's tedious to run after them or explain spawn points consistency/stay at least in one room logic.
2. One person doesn't equip a relic.(even then I sometimes stay, but most of the time I extract)
3. I have a good/great trade waiting for me.
4. Some stupid saryn overkills and that way it takes way longer to get our traces and most of the time we don't to the end of the rotation.
5. I'm falling asleep/bored to hell.
6. mr69 dies constantly without wielding an bramma/ogris(any other self damage weapon) or a zaw with exodia contagion and I don't want to laugh too much in the chat.
7. I get my thing and I have more interesting things to do.1. Particularly annoying when somebody has a good CC or AOE frame camped on the cryopod which then gets wasted because somebody wants to have the top 'damage dealt'..
2. I don't mind this so much, as sometimes people just want traces (or they're after one of the reward tiers specifically)
3. I don't think I've ever seen one of these on console, 😜...
4. Sometimes I play Saryn and get the opposite - the numbnuts mentioned in point 1 kills the affected target before the spores have spread.
5. They don't call them 'endless' for nothing...
6. For me this is usually MR 0-4 grinding MR on a new frame, and I've no idea what they're doing in an activity they're bound to get creamed in.
7. The one, overriding reason that fits practically anyone playing an 'endless' mission. If you've no reason to hang around and haven't agreed to then why should you?

My question refers to:
- Red Veil
- Steel Meridian
- New Loka
- The Perrin Sequence
- Cephalon Suda
- Arbiters of Helis
From what I researched, I could gain exalted With Red Veil, Steel Meridian, New Loka and The Perrin Sequence without loosing rep with the other three. Is this correct?
At present I'm Exalted with Red Veil and Steel Meridian. Can I gain faction rep with New Loka and The Perrin Sequance without loosing rep with Red Vail and Steel Meridian?
Thanks
From this post:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Warframe/comments/7yxtwu/which_syndicate_is_best_for_me/
The viable combinations are:
1) Steel / Suda / Hexis / Veil Only run Steel / Suda missions, have a Steel Sigil equipped.
Suda won't interfere with Steel and gives you +50% Hexis, the -50% Veil is made up by the +50% Veil from Steel and the Steel Sigil (no negative for Suda / Hexis) finally gets Veil into positive.
2) Veil / Loka / Perrin / Steel Only run Veil / Loka missions, have a Veil Sigil equipped.
Works pretty much like the previous. FYI, this combination makes you miss out on Suda's unique Large Team Shield Restore.
3) Perrin / Hexis / Loka / Suda Only run Perrin / Hexis missions, alternate between Perrin / Hexis Sigils.
Perrin / Hexis are opposed but you still get a total of +50% for each and they don't interfere with Loka / Suda so +50% each there, as well. FYI, this combination makes you miss out on Veil's unique Large Team Ammo Restore.

Ah, alright. Thought I can just do em now so I don't have to do em later, its what I did to all the other planets after all 🙂
It's actually pretty good advice - the straightest path 'through' a planet often contains the lowest level missions on it. I've gotten all the way through the chart and yet still haven't finished every node on every planet (primarily because I'm mainly a solo player and I can't guarantee I'll get a full group if I start a disruption or interception mission).
I've gone back and done quite an few later and the key there seems to have been to run Syndicate/Relic missions or the occasional event because that will often change the mission type on a node, and also give you a better chance of getting a group together.
There's only a couple of junctions that actually require a certain MR level (by requiring a crafting step or mission completion) but you'll likely get to that level without even trying.

I redeemed 6 relics pack from red veil syndicate (18 relics) yesterday after Nekros & Oberon were unvaulted but received no unvaulted relics.
Is there a few days lag before they are added to the syndicate relic tables or am I just very unlucky???
Same here, but I think it's just bad luck (which happens to me more often than not). I missed out on Ash Prime this last unvaulting, because the relic with the systems literally dropped TWICE for me in the entire three month period and didn't unlock at anything higher than the first tier!
In the same period though, I managed to get Limbo, Vauban and Ivara Prime, so it just seems to be 'luck of the draw'.
I'm only waiting on one component for Oberon Prime after last time and haven't collected a single component for Nekros Prime but I wouldn't be at all surprised if I'm still waiting on them by the time they get vaulted again...

Quick question, are there any companions/companion mods that work like the shield of shield ospreys? They are great for protection missions that require no damage but they seem to be hard to get for me as I am not an ally for cephalon suda >.>
What are you trying to protect? Yourself? Objectives? Rescue or defection targets? And is this for a riven challenge?
Because the answer depends on the circumstance....

I cant reach the lvl9 of mastery because of the sneaking trial. I've tried lot of times, Its just too hard to do (especially the last "wave"). Plus, warframe isnt a game where you have to be sneaky, and this gameplay isnt well made. Ennemies may not see me when I just pass in front of them, but will see me behind a wall for no reason...Im just stuck, anyone has tips/advice to complete it ? I dont want to stay to mastery 8.
I followed the basic paths from this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7yMVtKkGdw
But I used a Skiajati as it makes you invisible after executing a stealth kill. It doesn't last too long, however you can chain the kills to refresh the effect.
Once I gotten the route down in practice, I think it took me two attempts at the real thing (first time I screwed the route up on the last stage for reasons I can't fathom).

So, imagine you have a drawer full of clothes thrown in it at random. The drawer is full, but you know that if you folded the clothes neatly, you'd make space in the drawer. However, you cannot fold the clothes while they are in the drawer, so you take them out and put them on your bed, before folding them and putting them back in your drawer.
That's (a simplistic version of) how the optimization process works. The drawer has 22 GB of space, the bed has 11 more, and the neatly folded clothes in the drawer occupy only 500 megs less, but you still needed the bed's 11 more gigs in order to fold them.
Those of us familiar with the old style Windows defrag know EXACTLY what you mean!

Front end developers often have diminished understanding to make the backend work. I can honestly see this as a bit of a major headache to my intuition of their data structure.
Goes back to the notion of how much time would it take to tell me "where a person took a picture" vs "now tell me if it is a bird". One is pretty easy....one is 1000's of hours and will always be prone to errors.
This. I always find it funny when somebody says 'I made a picture of what it should look like, so it must be easy'...
On a less sarcastic note, the only way I could see something like this working is if they introduced a system whereby you could downgrade mods in the same way you upgrade them (using credits and endo). Would that mean you can alter them all on the fly? No, but then again there's a popular phrase concerning having your cake and eating it...

Chance of spawning: RNG-conditioned. Threshcones appear most frequently, although still not guaranteed in smaller maps for instance.
Specific missions for plants: Irrelevant. Avoid small maps.
Use external timer or tile entry to check whether regular Earth missions are in night or day cycle. Cycle of regular missions changes every four hours.
Source of claims: Personal experience. Been obsessively scanning plants even before the silver grove existed.This. In fact the only real annoyance is the day/night cycle on Earth (which invariably ends up being the opposite one to the one you want)!

I generally fall into this category for one reason:
Host migrations.Why risk sticking around for a full C rotation when I have what I want when it only increases the chance of getting a host migration and potentially losing the item I was after? I get absolutely nothing for staying longer, and to be frank I don't owe anything to any of the other members of the squad to stick around longer. Especially if it looks like someone else is going to bail as well.
For that reason once I hit my goal, be it the part I wanted, just some trash to sell to baro, having my gear hit 30, I'm going to leave unless the group talked about staying longer.
And I'd say you're pretty much in the majority. Unless you've actually agreed with the rest of the squad to stick around, you're actually under no obligation to do so. For the most part, people don't have issues with this, and I've certainly seen plenty of occasions where it's clear that somebody is going to be wasting their time sticking around, and once they leave, everyone else follows.
From the sound of it, the OP seems to want all the benefits of organizing a farming group without having to do any organizing. I myself have plenty of spots on the star chart I haven't cleared because they're interceptions or disruptions and I'm a primarily solo player. But am I going to whine about it or blame anyone else? No, because I can either just suck it up and wait for the right PUG or get on the chat and sort it out myself.
Nobody's issue but mine..

And I agree with OP that doing fissures solo just isn't effective when farming for parts.
I'd actually disagree with this, and I think it may even be the reason for the post in the first place...
Nobody runs endless fissures if they're just farming random parts for ducats or platinum - there are quicker ways to do that. People join endless fissure runs for two reasons (they're all about the relics, nobody stays around for the round specific drops):
1) To open as many of their own relics as possible. These people want to go the distance.
2) To maximize their chance of getting a specific drop because they know that they will nearly always be full and therefore they're getting '4 bites of the cherry'. Very often people doing this will only have 1 or two of a specific relic type, so they're only going to hang around until they get what they want, or run out of relics.
Two different approaches, but...
What if you're farming for parts and the specific part you want comes up in the first round? Do you stick around, even though you've gotten what you came for? Unless you've specifically agreed to stay around afterwards I'm pretty sure most people would just quit when they're give the option to, regardless of which of the two schools they fall into.

I am a newish player, and my wife that is MR5 finally reached pluto, and now needs a first potato-ed weapon, she said she couldn't choose between a full auto weapon and a shotgun, liking both...
So I recommended Fulmin! But.. MR8 😧
So I heard that Kohm exists! Whoa, full auto shotgun!
So some questions:
1. I heard it is good weapon for Excal Umbra builds focused on using it as specter... why?
2. Why the rivens for it are ludicrously expensive? Cheapest riven for it right now (for example if I would buy it to reroll until it was my taste) is 300 plats! The average on some sites is 2000!
3. I keep hearing it is a really popular weapon, why the disposition is still 5 star? Riven system is bugged?
4. Is viable to use it without Carrier? We still need to get mastery with most companions and I like my Helios filling up my Codex...
1. It's a good weapon for Specters full stop, because it's extremely ammo hungry and Specters never run out of ammo...
2. It's a popular weapon, and the drop rates for shotgun Rivens are the lowest in the game. Not that you 'need' a Riven for it anyway.
3. Actually a bit of a mystery, but I'm guessing that DE looked at the drop rate and the cost of the Rivens and figured that enough was enough!
4. If you're REALLY careful with your ammo, it's usable, but expect to keep swapping to your secondary and melee pretty regularly.

Question:
DE sells platinum themselves, they also use steam but you can buy it direct if you want to.
If the console overlords allowed foreign microtransaction tokens to buy things on their platform, why would any publisher ever use those platform's payment system? Hence why would any transaction ever happen in a place where the console overlords would get their cut? It's the same thing with mobile (Google Play/App store). If you control the platform you get a cut of the sales and you put rules in place to ensure that cut doesn't get sidestepped. You may not like it but that is how walled gardens work.
I mean you know they take a cut of game sales right? What is a microtransaction other than a fraction of a game sale? Cert fees are just about the cost of performing the cert, nothing to do with the ongoing cost of hosting the game on their platform (Note this is not the same "hosting" as P2P vs Hosted servers, just FYI)
Question:
If DE sells platinum themselves, why would anyone use any other platform/payment system? Serious question, because potentially there's no need to go through Steam at all as it stands. And yet people still do, because it's the convenience of it that keeps them paying in the place they do. Otherwise Steam themselves just wouldn't bother, but they don't care because when they do get a purchase, they're getting pure profit. It's not unreasonable to imagine the same mindset from the console manufacturers.
I can already have items applied to my account without going through any of the system marketplaces (Twitch drops are a valid example, and they've given platinum away in those). And there would be nothing at all to stop me from buying and spending my platinum on one platform, and then applying it to any other platform I'm attached to (this happens in Destiny 2 with 'Silver' purchases all the time, and nobody seems that upset about it).
Also, the console manufacturers don't host the game on their platform - they simply use an authentication pass-through (pretty much the same way that the website does). there is literally zero cost involved (unless you consider bandwidth for the initial login, which is so tiny as to not even register in the grand scheme). This is one of the reasons that the console manufacturers have softened their stance on cross-save - because they know that people play and spend on the platform they choose, regardless of any available alternatives.

I mean if you have magic dust that affects the console ecosystem rulers desire for profit, go right ahead, but as far as I'm aware If a game publisher wants to sell and/or do microtransactions on a console platform they have to use that platform in a manner those rulers agree with, if they don't then that's a "lose" rather then a "win", and that's where we all are. Simply put, DE need them more then they need DE
But do they? DE still pay certification fees for their updates, they're still paying a percentage on anything that does get sold through the console marketplaces (because some people won't have access to Steam etc.).
In short, they're still getting money for nothing, so it's all profit anyway.
Plus you can guarantee that the 'discount' doesn't get applied to the retailer side of the equation - it comes out of DE's cut, because given that Steam don't make money out of certification and don't charge a fee for multiplayer, I can't see Steam dropping their 30% down to 5% (or even less for as higher than 25% discount or if the total take for the game is $10-50 million dollars plus).

This is not a win-win. Percentages are extracted from real money purchases. A Steam-based Plat purchase gives a cut of that money to Valve, If that Plat could then be used to buy someting on the XBox the result is a microtransaction that happens on an MS platform that MS doesn't get a cut of, and that is not something that walled garden owners like, at all. Same for "subverted" microtransactions where the whole transaction happens elsewhere but another walled garden owner is expected to enable the content without seeing any money.
It's a win-win for the consumer, and for DE. If Microsoft, Nintendo or Sony want to negotiate a better deal with DE than Steam have, that's up to them.
DE still get paid
The consumer gets what they want.
Not seeing an issue for you or I here, or an issue that couldn't be resolved by making the console manufacturers a little less greedy (after all, it literally costs all parties the same amount to sell 'virtual' items).

Baro has all the melee primed smites for each faction and I'm wondering if I should get them or not? Thanks in advance for any help.
From what I've seen the primed smites are all very 'niche' (so if you have a truckload of ducats, credits and endo and if you're going to be doing long endless runs against specific enemy types, then fill yer boots, otherwise no...)

Cross trades won't happen, updates will work the same way they do now - PC first, consoles later - and if you get a brand new item in the PC version that's not on console, you won't be able to use that item until it is out on console... basically, nothing will change other than being able to have your save in the cloud to be able to use it wherever and whenever.
Curiously enough, the only major change I can happening with this is on PC. Bungie were able to do this because they shifted all of their PC access over to Steam (meaning it was just one more walled garden to deal with), and I could see DE doing the same in order to make aligning all of the systems easier.
The 'Prime Access/Tennogen' question isn't really 'a thing' because the money/platinum would still change hands in the location it does now; it's only where the item purchased ends up that changes. In fact if someone were to purchase discount plat on PC and then use it to buy Tennogen on console, that's pretty much a win-win all around, isn't it? It's not like the PC side is getting robbed, and the console side is actually gaining from that.
Then again it might be an idea just to keep it the same across the board purely for the purposes of avoiding confusion, and if they were to do that it would potentially increase visibility for all those selling Tennogen...
Bringing the marketplaces into line and making Platinum/Vouchers 'platform locked' is probably the only other step they'd need to make (because the content is pretty much in-line across the board as it is right now and separate from the in-game patching which isn't subject to the same cert process as the content patches are).

I found this build interesting, but I met a problem with it: i dont have Primed Fever Strike and thought of replacing it with Virulent Scourge
and also thought about replacing Sacrificial Steel due to me not having it maxed out (its halfway through being maxed rn)
what do u think ?
Swapping out PFS for VS will drop your overall damage output, but it will also push up your status chance. Given that, you might want to switch to a status focused build (or accept that you'll probably do around half of the expected damage). Maybe this build https://overframe.gg/build/3976/nikana-prime/hybrid-end-game-template/ which is also cheaper on forma.
Unless you already have a high ranked True Steel (well, higher than your current SS) and aren't planning on taking on sentients, I'd stick with Sacrificial Steel and just bump it as and when you can

It's actually a half decent resource when people can be bothered to write the guides to go with them, as they'll often explain WHY the build works, which in turn makes you better at modding (once you understand what's going on).
I've played Warframe for 5-6 days yet I have no idea what's going on...

Yep, wholeheartedly agree. I've always found this to be a really good source for working out what was going on 'gameplay-wise':
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ylw9HK2ol6yam3MMNbycbuHxjmctg3gCqsbI4yy2gK0/edit#
As for lore, that you might have to search around for, because so much of it is hidden in the actual story progression, that you probably won't stumble across answers to your questions until weeks or months after you've asked them.
For the meanwhile I'd just follow the straightest line to complete each of the planets, then go back and finish the remaining nodes or try PoE, Fortuna or Railjack.
And for my two cents worth, I think DE REALLY need to start dedicating time to the NPE, because I got utterly sick of running Cetus Bounties this weekend with MR 1 and 2 players with MK1 gear and half a clue...
