Just another of many WF myths that refuse to go away. LIke Stalker has a higher % against low ranked gear.
Funny though the run/not run myth started with the suvival event and DE actually answered in a bit of an off hand, 'no' but it still persists.
As far as when to pop. if you don't have much teamwork developing it is best to go at 40%, unless you don't have a nekros and the capsules are in rooms with poor spawns, I would try and announce you are popping it in chat and go for closer to 60%.
Basically if you are disjoineted team popping two at the same time can happen a lot and end up wasting 10-20% of a pod.
More people also make the oxygen deplete faster. This is to account for More people = more pickups
Aaaand this is how the myths continue to spread

I wouldn't care if everything but survival and void missions were removed from the game, that's how much I play the rest of that crap (and for clarification: I don't play it).
FTFY

Just thinking about transmuting makes me a little sick to my stomach.
-
not sure whether to meh or lol.
I hate that mod now. I'm convinced they changed the drop % on it though. When it was new I was getting one about every 30mins worth of time on earth. They were in such demand I went ahead and sold the last one I had that I was keeping for myself just because I didn't know what the fuss was and figured I'd get another easily. Aaaaand they're gone. HOURS of earth survival since playing on a 3 spamming nekros and haven't seen one.

In what sense? Not saying you're wrong, but I don't understand how it made sense back then either.
Actually i'm not sure either, but I remember once I was dedicated to the Dual Zoren I asked why it came with a D polarity and what actual benefit that was. I don't recall all of the responses but several tried to explain why it was very good and underrated and they got lots of likes so I just kinda accepted it.
But fully agree it should have been changed or weapon mods, especially melee need a re-vamp of the polarities. If DE could do something like free polarity moves based the number of forma you've used it would be ok.

Yeah, since most of the good alerts are based on american time the good alerts appear nights for me. I don't really want to log off nor do I want to go to bed because I could miss the alert I'm waiting for weeks/months.
I've already got one but this doesn't help at all if the alert you're waiting for appears when you sleep.
If they make it that you can play with people in your region, the alerts should be like this too because peak time in america means mostly evening/night in europe.
Pure myth.
The clock is 24 hours with good alerts happening all the time. Pure numbers say though if you are an average gamer you are only on for 2-3 hours which means over 80% of all alerts are going to be at a bad time, doesn't matter your timezone.
If you really believe most of the 'good alerts' are at peak US times (that would be EDT) about Midnight GMT to 3am GMT. Pull the numbers, and prove to us your statement has any basis in fact that MOST GOOD alerts are between those times.

It is a holdover from the old damage system where it made a bit more sense. Not perfect sense but better than it does now.

Now he's just resorting to being contrarian. Course has been run, everything sucks, there is no debate possible.

Honestly collecting S#&$ and seeing where the game is going.
I burn out often, but still want that stuff I don't yet have. Which takes a long time when I only play in streaks. Two parts away from all frames, but there will probably be another prime by the time I get those. And like 9 prime weapons.
But also to see how the game is changing and where it is going. Considering when I started there were 2 tile sets and only 3 or 5 different enemies per faction, watching the actual growth of the game and appreciating the little things. How much parkour possibilities are in Jupiter tileset for example.
The development of the capture target, from the same corpus tech model sitting in the same room regardless of faction and planet's tileset to something a bit more dynamic.

Oxium is just another grindwall; probably the most blatant in the game outside of a couple of special mentions (Hydroid, anyone?)
Most things that require Oxium require it in inhuman amounts...conveniently the market sells said amounts for 30 Plat a pop.
Gee, what a coincidence.
Grind speedbumps at best.
A wall is meant to keep people from getting by.
Once you have built the parts you need it isn't so bad, hell farm for some stances that drop from corpus and the oxium builds up fast.
The only real issue with the grind issue with stuff like beacons and oxium and lol argon (I always wonder what people mean by argon farm), is if you have everything else in game and oh I want this stuff RIGHT NOW as well. Then yeah it takes a while, but hardly a wall.

Okay guys i understood everything but don't be so rash on me and can a moderator lock this thread
You just have to understand a lot of the reactions and harshness are coming, in a way, by the same logic. So many posts and similar threads that just don't seem to understand the actual work involved in... well anything really. At some point you crack and all of that frustration from reading other threads and posts comes rushing out.
The process of game development is slow and tedious. There is a huge portion of this community that expects some pretty decent amount of content update EVERY WEEK! DE put that upon themselves. but FFS imagine what it takes to do a larger project when you are also expected to be putting out significant fixes and content on a weekly basis? Holy crap no wonder they have beer in front of them (or something harder maybe) during the dev streams. I'd be drinking too.
A lot of people are very blind to the amount of work that is done on this game really.
*EDIT*
Like this guy
Does anyone else see a problem here? For ten years, they could've had possible concepts or even a design plan, yet it seems like they just came up with this stuff the day before they announce it.

Well you dont know the definition of "rehashing." I used the word rehash often 'cus i felt like it, but a better word to use may be "reuse" or "reprocessed"
and btw rehashing's definition from dictionary.com is ""To bring forth again in another form without significant alteration" which is EXACTLY what they are doing
i wasnt even complaining about infested was I? no. so shut up about it.. I was bringing up the reuse of moa's and ospreys in general, which, AS I SAID, was a question asked on teh devstream
Calm your %$#.
They aren't simply re-hashing they are using existing models to build off of and change to save time. Using an already created base is common and a good idea. The most troublesome part of animating a model is the start, the most bugs, inconsistencies and problems in general are in the set-up and first steps in animation. When I saw the devstream I didn't see them simply re-skinning enemies but using the base of one to build on and develop.
It looks like they are planning fairly significant alterations.
-
I agree with all of your points, but also dont' think they are breaking but just something i'd like to see addressed.
The second point though? Yes 100% If I have a saved loadout, which it is because if I go to make a new cosmic specter with a different frame/weapon it asks me if I want to use the new loadout instead of the old one?. ?um... once a loadout it saved I should be able to just make those again without re-equipping all of those overrated mods and messing up my standard loadouts.
This IMO should be a quicker and easier fix that should be done.

I still get that floor bug, my buddies got dispair a few days ago and when I ran up to get the purple ball, it fell through the map. its frustrating.
Two issues with them. Falling into the floor and not being able to be recovered is a client-host lag issue I think.
The purple/pink orb falling off the map into nothing-ness has been fixed I think, unless it lands on something that keeps it from getting to a place it respawns. Basically now if the orb falls off the map just like if you do it will be re-spawned on the edge-ish. mods and orbs work the same way. Noticed on the defense map on Ceres, quite a bit of stuff ends up falling off the map there.

I started in a clan of like 4... before dojos were a thing. The other three left and I continued on. It takes a while at first to gain the resources to put much into the dojo but the sense of accomplishment doing it yourself or with a couple others is pretty cool.
Since then 1 guy has come back and brought a new player. So it is fun that now I have the obstacle course and dueling room... and a couple clan mates.

Sweeper.
Honestly I wanted to potato and forma the Miter just to see what I could get out of it maxxed out. I found it a really fun weapon to use despite its reputation as being utter crap. Just haven't been able to put in the effort on a gamble.
-
My guess just from all the encounters i've had is that he drops a BP about 15% of the time. I don't recall the numbers that were data mined back right before they encrypted the tables. But more often than not he does NOT drop a BP.
At least he drops serration most commonly now, he used to drop slash dash of all friggen mods. But there is still a chance he won't drop a mod, and as far as I know he can't be desecrated like harvester or G3.
-
Messing with settings you probably should have been able to get better than 20 FPS out of the old machine.
This game looks surprisingly good on all low settings and a bunch of stuff turned off.

For 10k+ exterminate or capture I will but not the others.
I do remember when de *fixed* the credit rewards a while back, they were giving double the credits. After the fix a small amount of WTF happened. And I kinda adamantly said the needed to be re-broken. Which they sorta did the minimum credit
Amount now is around 5k where it used to be 2k. But yeah with dark sectors they have become just something that occasionally blocks a good node.

Invasion mission. Round one went well, everybody participated, nobody was nova'ing or stomp'ing all over the place. Reasonable mix of action and pacing. Good game.
Honestly i'm not sure if it isn't that your expecting something completely different from parts of this game.
Yes the guy you are describing is a #$&(%, and no better than someone that doesn't leave the spawn room at the start. But for an invasion mission? The point is often enough to get the battle pay in the most efficient way possible. I don't see what is so wrong about nova'ing and stomping and rushing these missions.
However there are a lot of different perspectives. Maybe this kid has been left behind so many times this is his way of getting back at everyone?
People that bite off more than they can chew, or leech rewards are incredibly annoying yes, but what it sounds like you are asking for from the type of teammate you find 'good' is a very narrow range of player.
Although as I was just rushing through the reactor invasion on Ceres just now I was thinking about how nice it would be to pace it so I could desecrate all those corpus since there was a really good ratio of elites and techs.

Just incase you didn't know- bows already have innate punch through on charge shots (separate from the flying body). Therefore speed trigger is a better case unless you're stacking shred and speed trigger or use uncharged shots.
well look what you learn. I didn't know that. But I also haven't used bows much for a long time. I may have to put a couple forma on my dread and see what kinda red crit numbers it makes.

You were lucky XD
...
, people would get too greedy like happened with the arcane helmets, on the first week after they got removed from alerts people were asking for 1700 plat for a rhino vanguard or a trinity aura one.
A little lucky a lot of patience. What is so wrong about a frame or two taking a bit of time to get? You did get it eventually.
On the greedy side who cares? Yeah people were asking for 1700 plat but was anyone buying? Prices for most helms dropped to 20-40 plat almost right away. They were on the market for 75, were people who wanted them bad enough to pay 100 P didn't buy them from the market?
With booben he's available on the market now. If he was tradable the greediest person isn't going to be able to charge more than market price and chances are the market gets flooded because there are more people like myself and spacekadet out there than people may realize, who have multiple full sets and a few extras ready to cash in if that happens. 40P for that one piece some individual needs and not more than 100P for the full set would probably be what it would go for.

If you don't have QT, your best bet is to build with as much -duration as possible (60% from FE) and use a Rank 0 Blessing. Should allow you to recast Blessing every 1.2 seconds or so.
Then dump everything else into making yourself as tanky as possible. Which unfortunately includes QT/Flow, but you can make it work without them.
EV now restores a TON of energy, so you want to be using that as much as possible.
I'd recommend something like this, depending on how much you want to forma. http://goo.gl/9Z2nP1
This is the reactive build I use that also includes Link. I tend, however, to use http://goo.gl/VfbjW6 more often (includes QT), as it's easier to stay energy capped than maintain upkeep of a 6 second Link :S
Edit: Basically the difference is Vigor, QT, and Flow, vs. NT, Link, and Stretch.
Thanks.
I"m going to have to play with this some... and continue to try and farm QT. I wonder what I get first RhinoP chassis or QT.

Ew... The Dagger axe skin? That looks $&*&*#(%&... There's a reason they stopped making weapon skins like that >.> That'd be super bad in real combat too, get stuck in people a lot as it'd stab more than slash.
Tell me more about how real combat works in this game.

I'd rather a better system of match making and group forming. Why am I the host? It seems that just because I was waiting in the queue before the other three guys it picks me as host. Not sure if that IS the way it works but it seems that way, then I get a bunch of crap in the match. Not that I care much about the crap really but I hate getting a laggy host too so I know how they feel.
I hate leechers and a-holes as well but there are so many things that different people feel is the 'right' way to play or 'doing it wrong' I can't support a vote kick. I would just like better system to form and keep groups. If we could have 2+ people to start a group then maybe if those guys don't want someone in their group, but the reasons to kick could be as stupid as low MR or 'bad' weapon even if they are doing fine and contributing.
