  1. Don't you have to use one every time you go in a mission?
  2. I always get lost in large Cetus Caves. I've been playing for years and I still do. The only good thing about having a PS4 right now is that by the time I load into Cetus, the first bounty stage of Plague Star is usually over. It's not exactly realistic to ask DE to remove caves or anything like that. It's not like I dislike them either, I just hate getting lost. I see people use Loc-Pins on the cave entrances and that helps a lot when they drop that so I thought I'd start building Loc-Pins and using them, too. But you have to build them one-by-one and that's extremely inefficient for something that is just a gear item of which you will probably use a lot of. DE, can we please get a x5 or x10 Loc-Pin Blueprint?
  3. You. Don't. Need To. Do. All. Nodes. To. Access, The. New. Upcoming. Content. It's like you didn't read anything I wrote. The New War is the point you need to hit to do Whisper in the Walls. You can strategically avoid tons of nodes and still accomplish this. You don't need to unlock arbitration or do Steel Path at all. "Skipping nodes" does literally nothing to solve the problem or help players complete New War in time for the new content. Also, Nodes are not even a time sink. Most missions can be completed in under five minutes. You can do a whole planet in like an hour. When Steel Path unlocked, I did every SP mission in about a week of casual grind, and I don't consider myself to be above average of a player.
  4. The point of the Skip is so new players can get to the new content quickly. That means they need to have a Nechromech, a Railjack, an Amp and have completed Natah, The Second Dream, The Chains of Harrow, Apostacy Prologue, The Sacrifice, Prelude to NW and The New War. You don't have to complete all the nodes for this or have unlocked Steel Path at all. So skipping nodes does nothing to help the issue the skip is trying to solve.
  5. DE, will we get new Tennogen with this update? I'm sitting on a pile of Plat that wants to be spent!
  6. I kind of wish we could use our Decree rerolls to reroll the weapon options.
  7. Congratulations Warframe on 10 years, it's amazing that I've been playing this game for about 6 years now and still love it. Last year I missed the anniversary and didn't pick up the Wisp Dex Skin so it's nice I can pick that up and others can pick up the very lovely other Dex skins, weapons, armor and syandana, etc. That being said... Barring the Wisp skin, I have everything in the alerts already. Granted, I can get extra versions of the Noggles, but doing the alerts for skins will get me nothing. Will the weapons at least give me an extra slot? I hope so but, I'm not sure. While I'm happy that new players can pick up all the great gifts DE has given us throughout the years, for Veterans who have been playing Warframe along with DE for 10 years, the alerts are a poor reward that doesn't thank us for our continued play or encourage us to log on. It would have been nice if in place of the cosmetics we already have--that you can only have one of--we could have gotten built forma, or Aya, or Steel Essence or something. The Aura forma with the Excal skin was really awesome but asking for more than one of those is maybe a lot.
  8. There are probably a bunch of these threads on the forum already, but they are probably old at this point, so here's another for the pile I guess. Background At the end of the New War quest we see a physical manifestation of the Man in the Wall and hear his voice, and since its release people have been wondering what exactly he said, and what it means. (Embedded below is a YT snippet of the moment in the quest of the Man in the Wall's words) Previous Theories During Tennocon 2022 in the Sounds of The System Panel, this scene is discussed starting at 8:51. They specifically discuss the words at 11:19. Source Clip: https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkxn8_5LEj9uE6I7_ATn3yxI3Py1NdOkvgI The Tennocon 2022 Art Panel also discusses him I've tried to look into what other people have theorized about it, but I haven't actually found very much. This is a good YT video that I assume reflects what most people have theorized about it so far. (You do not have to watch it but it gives some good background information later on that is relevant to what I will be saying, along with this person's theory): In this particular video, the YT creator Ravens Truth says: I am not sure of the exact comment he's referring to on the warframe wikia page, but the theory this video talks about it actually referenced on this page currently in the trivia, and mentioned that this theory has been proven incorrect by information given by the Tennocon 2022 panel. So the theory in this YT video is incorrect, but I think the idea that the words have something to do with the requiems is on the right track. My Theory Firstly, if you listen to the dialogue closely, one of the only clear things you can hear does indeed sound like "Xata" so the idea that the words have something to do with the Requiem mods make sense, despite the theory that he says "Oull - Ris- Xata - Vome - Khra - Lohk" being untrue. Personally I think it was obvious that it was untrue because while the audio is difficult to decipher, certain hard sounds would still be identified like the 'kuh' in Lohk and clearly it isn't there if you pay attention. The only 'Kuh' sound is in the part that is supposed to be "Vome" ( in actuality the dialogue sounds more like "kohm" here) when you actually try to line up the requiem mods with the dialogue. So even without DE shooting down this theory is doesn't pan out after even cursory investigation. And yet clearly the dialogue does say 'Xata', so what's really going on here? When you look at the requiem mods themselves, you may notice a few things: Each mod has a symbol, the name, and 2 phrases separated by a space. I believe this space is important. All of the words have 2 phrases and almost all of the names have 4 letters, except 2, Netra and Ris which have 5 and 3 respectively, which still adds up to 2 letters to a phrase. I believe that each two letter in the string of requiem names is a 'syllable' that stands in for one of the phrases, and that the Man In the Wall is speaking these syllables to refer to the phrases. So the words Fass-Jahu-Khra-Lohk-Netra-Ris-Vome-Xata becomes fa-ss-ja-hu-kh-ra-lo-hk-ne-tr-ar-is-vo-me-xa-ta, and for example 'hk' would correspond to "By that which bears no name", 'ar' would mean "in luminous space blackened starts", etc. So, when I listen now to the dialogue I can string together syllables that come much closer to what the dialogue actually sounds like. I think the way the words were processed, as well as the interpretation of the sounds by the person who recorded the words and/or the writers who were trying to fuse these syllables into actual words someone could say, is what might account for any discrepencies from the syllables and what we hear int he dialogue. So to the best of my ability to discern, what The Man in the wall is actually saying is: "vo-ne-xa-ta-hk-me-ra-ar-hu." which ends up sounding kind of like voh-nell zatah kuum rah-ahr-who, because of And if we line up the phrases from Requiem mods, this translates to: To cosmic madness, laws submit. Carrion hordes trill their profrane: "It's heralds are the stars it fells The sky and earth aflame By that which bears no name" We end as we began In luminous space blackened stars As suns and love retreat Now what does this mean? A lot of people have theorized that the Man In the Wall wants to break out from the void and into the world, but I think this sequencing of the phrases reveals his actual motive is the opposite: The Man in the Wall IS 'the void', not merely an entity within it, and the void itself is a singularity (a black whole) that wants to swallow the universe into himself, essentially un-big-banging the universe. I'm sure there are others who have also believed this to be the case in the past, but this sequencing of the poem phrases makes it clear, describing The Man in the Walls ultimate goal. To cosmic madness laws submit - this refers to how physics breaks down at the point of a singularity/black hole. Carrion hordes trill their profrane - Carrion are creatures or being which feed on the dead. Something is dying, and carrion are gathering around the death, it being the death of a star. It's heralds are the stars it fells - "it" AKA The Man in the Wall, announces or warns of his arrival by destroying stars. These destroyed stars are of course the collapse of massive stars into black holes at the end of their lifetime. The sky and earth aflame/By that which bears no name - Planets around the star are engulfed in energy given off by the supernova explosion of the collapsing star. We end as we began/In luminous space blackened stars/As suns and love retreat - the universe began as a single point that contained all energy and matter in the universe before it exploded in the big bang. The star is now collapsing back into a singularity as it dies, swallowing all light and matter. This interpretation makes perfect sense when you take into the account that at End of New World quest, Ballas tries to destroy the solar system by blowing up the sun and collapsing the solar system into the void. This is when the Man In the Wall appears to us and says the words, before this end is ultimately stopped by you and the Lotus. The Man In The Wall being related to black holes is also supported by the fact that his missing finger is also used in the Reliquary Drive of your Railjack which allows your RJ to travel at faster than light speeds. A common theory of how such travel could be done is via worm holes, which are black holes that have two connecting openings allowing the transversal of space without having to cross the intervening distance between them. Other science fiction terms you might recognize to describe this 'hyperspace travel' or using 'stargates'. Furthermore, the introduction of The Man in the Wall to the Tenno happened during the Zariman tragedy, which we know from the Angels Of Zariman to be the result of a 'void jump' gone wrong, where the ship became trapped in the void--in the worm hole/hyperspace. Essentially I think this all points to The Man In The Wall not being an entity trapped in the void, or some being wanting to use you to leave the void. No, he is the personification of a natural force in the universe which governs the void, and can be described to include the ideas of entropy or gravity in physics. Rell and others call him "The Indifference", because he isn't necessarily evil but neither does he have any empathy or sympathy. He is a force that seeks to return the universe to the nothingness of the big bang by swallowing everything in the universe into the void.
