Unfortunately I'm currently unable to record this bug happening due to my meddling forced me to close the game.
What caused the bug is the following:
I was getting ready to start the second sortie mission today and queued up for a public lobby, after joining a group someone left which immediately initiated a host migration. It did not find a new host, sending me back to the liset (which I was already in). Afterwards I noticed the distance from the camera was off from the usual liset/relay station preset.
I was unable to access my navigator so I started looking around to see if I could possibly remedy this myself. I noticed my Kubrow behaved normally as I approached the incubator and pressed X which shifted the camera normally as if I opened up the menu for the Incubator but no menu showed up and I was still able to move around. I pressed ESC to open the quick menu and tried accessing the Navigator which brought me up to a permanent "Please Wait"
I'll try to replicate this at a later time and post the video here. -
Also you should do the Natah quest and be all "OMG WHAT?!" at the lore. And then do the followup, The Second Dream, and have that reaction times a million. You should definitely do that. Ask anybody, do it. Right now.
The Natah quest left me in awe, my ancient questions have been answered and so many things make sense. I'm vigorously farming Ash Prime right now to start the Second Dream Quest (little fanfic story I wrote a while back so now I need Ash Prime to complete it lol

Hey folks
After a long time of not playing this game due to severe burn out and realignment of priorities, I decided to see how one of my favorite up and coming games is doing and I'm super excited to be back and to be surrounded by new things that I remembered only being ideas in the development team's mind.
The newest Warframe that was released before I stopped playing was..... Limbo? and I remember I kinda pulled a Tom Cruise jumping on the couch when they were integrating the Space crafts and relay towers and Arch Wings.
So after looking at some of my bug report messages I noticed I probably stopped playing around early november (Rip 365+ days of not watching this game grow)
I'm in a temporary clan that I made and I have baggage (3 irl friends) who decided to start playing the game again with me
side note: my mod builds feel super weak trying to do the lv 70 missions and I feel inferior, can anyone point me in the right direction of a list of new mods and guns that are part of the "in" now?
I'd probably turn a bright red if someone recognizes who I am lol.
Stalker ( or whatever his new name is). I'm comin for ya again. Hunter becomes the hunted.

UPDATE: after speaking with a good friend and clan mate of mine than speaking with the advisor I've changed majors. In the long run this is better for me financially and overall the right path for my career choice.
Thank you everyone for the help you have given me and the advice that made me reach this conclusion.
-
Yea talk to her, my advisers have help me a lot with stuff like this, mines was the one who help me realized I barely had to take a few extra classes in CS to get a minor in it.
Thank you for your help Clinton!
Also everyone else who helped me out Thank you very Much.
I'll post what happens later on this week if anyone is interested
-
Idk man, will you be happy if you dont switch to CS? I mean in the grand scheme of things it might end up being worth it. Jobs dont hire JUST based on the degree, you can always learn new languages and obtain the necessary knowledge to get the job you want after your graduate too. You will probably have to work harder, might be a little harder to get your foot in the door at some places but once your in the there it only matters what you can do, not just what the degree says.
Do you have advisers or head of departments you could also talk to?
Yeah, Unfortunately I caught her when she was about to leave to head home So I'll try to catch her at an earlier time tomorrow.

Well the good thing about a CS/engineering degree is if you find you dont like the field you are going into (video games) you can always jump to a unrelated field. Like I said I dont know much about CIS(Never really paid attention to it) but if they only difference is a few courses I would go for it, yeah you might have to spend an extra semester or year but it will be worth it in the end. Better to get the degree now than to wait to later when you are working a full time job etc and might not have time to do it.
here are a few jobs listed I found that can be obtained with a Bachelor in CIS
Here are a few jobs a CIS degree holder might look at:Computer Technician, Service Center Coordinator, Help Desk Staff, Storage Administrator, Network Administrator, Systems Administrator, Systems Engineer, Enterprise Administrator, Active Directory Administrator, Exchange and Messaging Administrator, Backup Administrator, Disaster Recovery Specialist, Database Administrator, Computing Security Specialist, Ethical Hacker, Corporate IT Acquisition Specialist and Data Center Administrator, just to name a few.
the most common job is an CT or and IT. It's a little more hands but ultimately does not go into depth on development.
That's the problem, some of these courses are pre-requisites. What I can do is I can take one during the fall, take another one during the winter, than the spring than summer and so on and so forth. I'm already a year and a half into my 2 year school and I'm already graduating late because of key faculty members not being present to help me when the online registration system messed up and didn't give me 4/5 classes I applied for my 2nd semester. during the summer and winter semesters, which is another whole big steaming pile of Sh*t.
Needless to say though, I'm trying to figure out if I can switch over to CS in a 4 year school after this and continue down there without too much of a hassle if I do decide to sit in CIS and get my associates in that.

ultimately, it boils down to if you absolutely 'need' to be searching for a job in your desired industry ASAP, or if what you're learning atm is also acceptable for the time being.
the Game Industry is indeed rapidly growing, but no matter the field, dependant on luck it can still be difficult to find a spot for a brand new worker that does not have much field experience.
i think you're going to need to roll the Slots and figure out which one is more practical for you to get (and be able to afford to accept) employment in either field.
as having the degree you want is great, but it doesn't guarantee employment. you still need to prove to any prospective employer as to why you should be picked over the.... many others out there.
just don't decided solely based on bee lining for your dreams, because if you get there before you're ready, and it's an empty street for you, you're in trouble.
you might end up taking some detours in related fields as opportunities make themselves available.
Precisely why is why I've been networking and trying getting my name out as a beta tester for almost 10 years now.
Hell I remember when I beta tested Vanilla World of Warcraft, some of the developers were surprised a kid was able to make sense of the bugs and give valid suggestions on abilities and textures, If you did not know a good portion of the original development team for World of Warcraft had left when the Blizzard Activision merger happened in '09, began developing Wildstar. When I heard of Wildstar and the team that was making it I tested it and was recognized by some of the developers even after 9 years later.
I do understand that the paper and portfolio will not get you the job, I've preached it to my close friends and family who are getting close to finishing college. Networking is a key essential in getting a job post college.
Fresh is sometimes good, what is apparent and from my own personal experience, "degree-less" jobs look for experience, it's always sought after and connections is what puts your portfolio on the plate to be picked at first.

to get down into absolute specifics I want to become a Game Developer. It's been a passion of mine since I was 9 years old, I never looked at a game just as a video game that i play to have fun. I was always curious on how this was made, what it took, a little example of what I've done in the past was I've de-compiled files from Resident Evil 3 when I was younger and edited the installed copy of the game to better "improve" the controls of the game to be a little smoother"
I'm gunning for that specific field in development
I'll clarify that in another Edit.
Hey man, sorry to hear you're in such a dilema...
I'm in the uk myself..and so the education system here is pretty different,
if you're concerned about what degree looks better then you really don't need to worry.
I'm in my final year for my Computer Games development degree and I will have as much programming experience as a forensic computing student.
as you said, it's a piece of paper...it's your portfolio which truely holds the power!!
I know I never answered your initial Q...just try not to stress out :)
Cow
I totally agree that your portfolio is what truly matters because it dictates and reveals your experience in that field.
I'm just worried I don't want to be wasting my time on something that will not get me to my end goal.
Depends on your school and its programs first of all.
Im studying for a electrical engineering degree with a minor in CS. My best friend started off in EE and switched to CS his second year. In this case both majors are similar enough not to set him back much because much of the courses in CS is shared in EE.
So look to see what classes you need to take in each program and see how many overlap. I dont know much about CIS but if enough classes do overlap you shouldnt be set back too much. Talk to your advisory also.
Its only worth it to switch depending on what exactly you want to do in life, at the end of the day a lot of these degrees in engineering and technology are pretty interchanglable, its just important that your graduate and do well.
the overlapping classes consist of this: Advanced college algebra (Pre-requisite of the next), Pre-Calculus and 4 programming classes.
The other mathematics courses I will have to take in CS are, Trigonometry, Calculus, Calc 1-3 than the 4 programming classes.
What? Why are you posting this on a forum for a videogame? I'm genuinely laughing out loud here.
This is in Off topic.

Hey guys I'm in a very very big dilemma which needs to get solved right away (preferably by the end of this week)
I'm a college student aspiring to get a piece of paper that says I am certified to do programming ( which I have done quite a bit already)
Recently with some situations with my United States Federal Aid for paying my tuition I discovered I wasn't not taking
my specific major.
I am currently Majoring in Computer Information Systems when I applied for a Computer Science Degree.
Here's the problem.
I'm already a year and a half in my 2 year community college, If i switch now I will have to take an additional 7-8 Mathematics courses before I take these programming courses, which will result in my late graduation and me paying out of pocket because I will not longer receive financial aid, ultimately setting me back on getting my bachelor's
If I stay in Computer Information Systems I will only take 2 more mathematics courses before I can take these programming courses.
My preferred field also impacts this decision. I have aspired to take the road of a game developer. After speaking with the department's adviser she had stated that I would need to go down the path of Computer Science to get into the development field.
Here's my question(s)
-Is this true?
-Is it possible to get a bachelor's degree in Computer Science with an Associates in Computer Information Systems.
Whoever is knowledgeable of these majors, whether it be a fellow community member, a moderator, hell even some of the DE staff I would be greatly appreciative of your answers. this isn't the best place to go I know, but I need opinions.
Thanks everyone who would be of help to me.
Edited: Specified what field of development I want to go in.

been a while since I've gotten a visit from any Staff members. I guess poker night on Thursdays are over? =/

So how did they prepare Greedy Milk? Did they just filled you a glass of milk? Or did they actually try to make the stuff? Any pictures? ANYTHING? I NEED TO KNOW.
It was an Oreo Milkshake!
-
*waits for people to realize we were outdone by "Smile Dip"*
You have to realize the other 3 items were actual fictional foods whereas Greedy milk was a quote from Sargas Ruk that the Community took into a huge joke and made pictures of it.
-
As expected from momma lotus wish I could of gone.
It was a great experience! The whole Wikia food panel was cracking jokes at one another, the audience cracking jokes at them, and vice versa!
I have to say she did great!
I would have loved to have been able to meet her!!
Perhaps one day! She was a delight!

I wanted to get drunk with our overlord too... ;-;
Greedy milk is a delicious non-alcoholic drink tho! o.O

Here's some pics of the fantasy food cart and with me and Rebecca.
She signed my founder's headband!
Greedy Milk came in Top 4!
Also it tasted delicious >:o
Disclaimer: first photo is a close up of the side of my face and my ear lol
Signed headband!
Me and the Lotus!

Here's my build on Ash. Aura mod can be replaced with Steel charge for maximum Melee damage

All in all I have to say the buffs and Nerfs are justifiable (though I was hoping a little bit more love on the Lanka's travel speed)
I can finally whip out my 4-5 forma Lanka and Vectis out once again and do some damage soon.As for the nerfs to the Demo armory i'm fine with that, it made absolutely no sense why you had such an expansive reverse for Rocket launchers and grenade launchers.
EDIT: I'll be honest when it comes to comparison and general sense I over do it sometimes.
One thing that's irking me to no end is Why a Semi-Automatic weapon is dealing more crit damage than all the sniper rifles.
Vectis - 2.0
Vulkar - 1.5
Lanka - 1.5
Snipetron - 1.5
Snipetron Vandal - 2.0
compared to the Latron prime which is at 2.5.

What do you think is the best way to remove unwanted kubrow?
My suggestion in regards to a possible option to remove unwanted kurbows follows as such:
A new Dojo room that takes your unwanted Kubow (Consumes Stasis slot and credits to place Kubrow in room)
Your clan members are then allowed to purchase the kubrow via Credits which go to the Clan's treasury.
If you do not have access to the Dojo than the first option
One quick remove button and the kubrow is gone. -
Anyway why no body comment my loki prime drawing? I wanted to see if I still have it in me. :P
A true artist never loses his skill Razul.
The Loki Prime tribal looks really nice

is it just me, or does the rubero plating change the iron skin from rhino prime from gold back to metallic silver?
EDIT: i just realised there is a seperate bug section. my bad.
What you're seeing there is the Golden Iron skin without the actual colors. This has been addressed and the staff will fix it in the coming hotfixes
-
I've been attempting to color the Silva & Aegis and whenever i try to change to another pallet set, The entire menu freezes and Im unable to pick any colors. I can open the main menu and quit the game but that's it.
Building Warframe: Rubico And Sniper Hud Rework
in Developer Workshops
Posted · Edited by Phobose
After reading the article and looking at it all it looks very promising though I do want to point some things out.
The game is yes primarily close quarters and very fast paced with not a lot of slow time while in action. Things still need improvements as with many other things in life as time goes along. Below is a possible idea for any future additions to sniper rifles.
The beauty of a Sniper rifle and with guns in general is the ability to add secondary and tertiary attachments and items that add to the aesthetic and preference of its owner. Changing the colors of the weapon is one. It gives the weapon a unique identity to the owner on top of a character given by the owner as a whole. This applies not only to weapons but to almost anything we as human beings possess, pets, clothes, cars, furniture, hair, etc...etc.
Now coming back from a slight tangent, What can we do with the weapons of Warframe. we have skins and the ability to change the colors of said weapons, with almost everything else on Warframe.
What I propose as an addition if this wasn't thought of already is the ability to interchange the lens of the scope. of course each would be perfectly usable but as I stated above it gives the option of preference.
"Hey I really like the Vectis Prime but I absolutely adore the lens of the Snipetron." can come into mind. Since the game is primarily in third person and the sniper rifles are mostly the main source of a first person view that is mobile, I believe this could be doable if provided the logic makes sense.
My view on an implementation of this:
Standard lenses come with each sniper rifle, Vectis Prime comes with its own unique lens, (this actually might expand and become more work for you guys)
You like the snipetron lens. Can be implemented a few different ways to reach this goal.
1) Sniper rifle is of market origin, lens blueprint can be purchased through the market with credits and requires material to craft and time to build. once said lens is built, applicable to all sniper rifles except the original rifle
2)Rifle is of non-market origins. lens blueprint can be farmed for and requires
a component of original weapon to craft the lens (most likely the receiver)(idea will not work for all non-market weapons)3) lens is completely unique and can be farmed via -insert mission here-, and/or from Baros ki'teer, and/or from Sortie mission seasonal reward and/or from market.
This can give a much more unique characteristic to your rifle, ONTOP of the certain people having medical related issues such as headaches from certain ways things are set up on one lens so they use another one that doesnt give them a headache. I'll probably expand on this topic as its own post and see the opinions of the community at a time where time isn't constraint.
