[I'm Sure The Noobs Like The 4 Revives Per Mission But...]

There have always been players like that, it really doesn't have to do with the revive system.

 

This Tenno speaks truth. This has been happening since long before U18.

[Does The Grustrag, Zenuka And Stalker Even Spawn?]

I've seen the Stalker twice in the past two days. He's definitely still around, and still dropping Molten Impact despite his new upgrades.

[Can Valkyr Be Changed To Take Damage During Hysteria?]

You're supposed to turn it off every now and then. That's basically the only thing keeping it remotely balanced.

[Focus System Is A Bad Job.]

Pretty much every new system implementation in Warframe starts out as "a bad job" while they watch it and make adjustments. Not that you don't have a point with some of the powers being underwhelming, or the system in general being in need of tweaks, but if that's your angle then it helps to be specific about your issue(s).

 

Also, you need a spoiler tag in your thread title.

[Is There A Point To A [Spoiler] Secondary]

The only point to unlocking multiple trees is to give you options, as far as I can tell. You can only pick one at a time.

[[Spoilers] Why De... Why Are You So Evil? :'(]

The stalker can drop both the War BP and the broken War BP, the War uses 1 (or 2, idk) broken war(s) to make it

 

Yes, but the Broken-War requires the full War to make. It's a cyclical process. Which would be fine if you didn't lose any catalysts/Forma/lenses you installed in the process, plus leveling. But unfortunately you do.

 

I'll admit it makes me a little sad as well. Wish they'd make upgrades carry over to the new weapon when you use it in crafting.

[[Spoiler Alert] Transmissions]

So only if i will use focus ability they would see the Tenno?

 

Focus powers are visible to other players, yes. Transmissions from your Tenno are not. Be careful with that 5 key when you're playing with people who haven't finished the quest.

[Amidst All This New, Remember The Old Warframe. Remember How Far We've Gone. (Also, Old Lotus Art?)]

Every update I'm reminded of when I first started playing the game in U7, and every time I'm amazed at how far the game has come.

[[Spoiler] The Second Dream Soundtrack]

Guys, lemme give you a great tip : go in the room, then use the escape menu to go no navigation, then get out

 

Profit.

 

You, sir, deserve a medal.

[[Spoiler] The Second Dream Soundtrack]

I love the song. It feels very Metroid Prime, mixed with a bit of Legend of Korra.

 

Funny story, I actually just came to the forums to post a thread on this very subject. I usually play Warframe with music off, but I've had it on since U18 and I don't regret it in the slightest.

[[Spoilers] Sentient Loot Pool?]

According to the codex entries, yes.

[Why Do The Sentients Keep Sending Scouts If They Already Know We're There?]

It's to give players a chance to avoid them, presumably. Not everything has a lore explanation.

[[Spoilers Galore] How Will New Players Experience The Story?]

Considering you need both mastery rank and a fair amount of star chart access, plus gear, to get through all the quests leading to The Second Dream, I don't think new players are in any danger of burning through it too fast. I do hope they find a way to retrofit some of the older story events as quests, though, if only to bridge the gap on things like Alad V becoming (and then unbecoming) Infested.

[[Spoiler]Any Of You Think That...]

Fairly certain it was a story decision, probably inspired (to some extent at least) by the likes of Ender's Game or Evangelion, given DE's history of nerdiness. I don't think anyone at DE is foolhardy enough to think that they could stop people from drawing dirty pictures.

[[Spoiler] Alad V Not A Bad Guy Anymore?]

I'm not convinced the warframes are completely mindless, myself. But even if they were, Alad is clearly willing to disregard the lives of others - Tenno, Grineer, Corpus, and now even the Sentients - if it means advancing his own station. I'm not quite sure I'd call that evil, but it's most definitely villainous.

[[Spoiler] I Would Like To Know, What Is The Little Circle In The Bottom Right During Missions ?]

It's your focus power. When the bar is full, you can cast it like an ability (default key is 5) to unleash a power based on which path you chose.

[Applause To De For Update 18]

Agreed. DE outdoes themselves basically every major update, but this was something else entirely.

[Thank You De For This Amazing Quest And Your Hard Work For Making It (The Second Dream... No Spoilers Here)]

Agreed. My expectations were high, but they still blew my mind with this one.

[Things That You Want To Be Affected By Mirage's Sleight Of Hand That Currently Are Not]

I believe arc traps are actually affected, at least according to the wiki. That said, personally I'd like to see it affect all the stuff you listed, along with maybe moa cabinets. Also death/shockwave orbs in the Void.

[The Whole Immortal Thing Makes Zero Sense.]

Game mechanics and logic are often at odds in persistent game worlds like Warframe. This is just one of those instances.

[Lotus Has Nothing To Say About Syndicate Deathsquads?]

Lotus doesn't know everything.

[So, Is U18 Really Coming Before The End Of November, Or Am I Getting This Wrong?]

The only definitive word I heard was "before the end of the year," but if they moved it to November I'm not gonna complain.

[Whats The Point Of Collecting Stratos Emblems?]

There isn't one. The Stratos emblem tallies how many tactical alerts you've completed, that's it.

[Coming Soon: Devstream #62, Trick Or Treat!]

Now that Warframe has many more cosmetics items offer for platinum than it used to, are there any plans to reassess, reduce, or even eliminate the need for "negative reward" spending options like inventory slots or crafting rushes? These were somewhat more forgivable when Warframe was a smaller game, but now that it has many more positive monetization avenues (skins, syandanas, armor, etc.) it comes off as a bit unnecessarily punishing, particularly for newer players and/or collectors.

 

Also, can Orokin catalyst/reactor blueprints have some kind of drop location in-game like Forma? Having to either wait on alerts/invasions or pay platinum feels like a poor list of options when looking to acquire a supercharge for a new weapon/frame.

[Can We Have A Place To Farm Orokin Catalysts/reactors?]

My scenario hinges on knowing DE after 1.8k hours of playing. If some prime parts have drop rates of 2% (or Imperator Vandal's receiver which btw was time limited) what makes you think that something available in the market wouldnt be?

 

If potatoes where put in the void many players (myself included) would be annoyed or downright pissed because of more clutter for my prime pieces (that I can use to buy taters in an easier way anyways). It would be the same as forma. Getting rewards I don't even need (currently have 5 reactors doing nothing in my inventory). Sure, others would be happy because they'd be able of farming them with almost impossible odds of even getting them.

 

So maybe they don't put them in the void. There's an overhaul of the star chart coming up anyways, which by extension means a pretty huge shift in where and how we acquire things, or at least mission rewards like prime parts and the like; they could slip it in somewhere then. They could be buyable from syndicates. There's a myriad of places they could go where players could be allowed to get them outside of specific windows that they don't get to set.

 

For my part, I do want to make it clear for the record that I understand your disagreement. As I've said, there are workarounds like trading; that's a good thing. I disagree with the notion that we should just leave things as they are, but I see your logic. This isn't a crisis fix that needs to be addressed now; it's (what feels to me, at least) an inconsistency that I felt it'd be worthwhile to draw attention to with everything about to change anyway when U18 arrives.
