    Hot Take: DE, please keep the Kid Gloves on Moving Forward?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Is this serious?

    Jackal is a hard fight? Really?

     

    U wanna know funny fact: 2 or 3 years ago i let my cousin play some Jupter mission with a Modless Excal Umbra and Modless Weapons, his first time playing the game, dude didn't even know how to bullet jump, guess what happened?... He completed the mission no problem LOL - Six or seven years ago when i started playing this game, i strugled a lot to do missions at that same lvl with a way better setup, and that got me addicted to the game at that time (well i was a huge noob at the time). I mean game has been getting easier and easier over time... When Steel Path was new, it was hard, belive or not, now a days it is too easy...

     

    What is DE plan here? - Wanna a hard bone? Here, take it, wait a sec, a let me munch it a bit for you, u know what? Here take this milk, isn't bones made of calciun, there is a lot of calsiun in milk after all... lol

    Feedback after coming back!

    Hi, here i will just give my personal opinions of my impressions after coming back to warframe, since i had to farm 3 prime warframes this time, i would say that i was about 9 months to a year without playing the game. (since english is not my mother linguage, and my writting is no good, please bear with me) 

    Let me start with the thing that bothers me the most.

    - Eximus CC invulnerability - When it was implemented about 2 to 3 years ago, i thought it was good, because it made the game a bit harder, but even then i said in a post like this in this same forum, that this "new" eximus CC invulnerability has a huge problem (at that time, as i remenber (i might be mistaken but) manny people agreed with me), the warframes that are more reliant of CC started to really strugle a lot more. Some missions like mobile defenses, interception and even survival can be benefited a lot by CC warframes. I remeber a time when i could farm interceptions with Nyx, and it was a very great choice, or neutralise Grenier/Infested Mobile defences with Limbo, or even have a great time with Mag in survival missions - Some warframes needs the ability CC - I understand that the game now a days is faster and etc, but having only this "meta way" is unsatisfying, at least for a player like me who is returning to the game and has the thinking "this time i'm gona play with diferent warframes that i don't play much and make it work", for exemple: i few months or a year before the "new eximus" i remenber that i chose equinox and try to make a few workable builds for it, at that time almost nobody was using it anymore since its nuke power was outdated, so i came up with a "day and night" build with very good survivabily and kill power and a "night sleep" focused build, few months later (coincidence or not) equinox becomes very popular again with partners making vids about her again (fun times...). I'm writing all this, just to say that CC is very important, having deversified way of play the game is very important, and the Eximus invulnerability to ALL CCs is a fun killer...

     - New Warframes and Weapons - The last 3 warframes were good: Citrine, Voruna and Kullervo, and let me say why they are good, 3 heavy damage dealers with good survivability that is it... I liked it, but also got me a bit worried with this formula, it is better than the gimmick shield gating meta and high damage, but no warframes that comes with a good CC build/armor strip build/ other mechanics mechanics are considered good anymore by the comunity, witch is crazy... Gyre has no survival, weak CC, and potential high damage, some people like it some don't even look to it, Styanex is very good, but people straight ignore his 1, witch is one of the most fun skills in whole game, and just use him as an artillary (he is a very good frame IMO), and Caliban, people thinks that he is worst than hydroid, witch in my opinion is just a mistake, this frame can survive well and can strip armor very well with its second ability, it is just that he is out of the meta so he is taken as bad, but imo he is good too. But the weapons, truly i couldn't care less, i already have more weapons than i want to use then, they just makes me feel lazy about them, gyre and Stynex came with interisting guns, but seemed weak. The new big scyths: their stance, speed and area efects are very off in my eyes (same for big nikanas).

     

    - Duviri - Overal i liked it, but there is a few problems there, it is very hard (tiring) to farm all the intrisic solo, (i would do it in groups if i could, but i can't). The story telling is all messed up, i understand it because (hell) i have 4k+ hours in this game, so i can fill the gaps in my mind, but i don't think new players can connect things, the same goes for the Angels update and Deimos update - a bit more explaning wouldn't be bad, not every thing needs to be ridle Teshin, i mean DE (lol). Game is fun, farming is not really that hard, but the weapons and Kullervo needs too much resouces to be made.

    For me who likes farming and to strive for some obtainable objectives, the game is always a joy, and my biggest let down with the game is the CC blockage.

     

    that is all...

    I've never liked her personally.  The idea of 2 frames in one is interesting to be sure.  but I don't think it pans out.  Especially since you really can't use both effectively.  You build for one or the other.

    Actually my build for Day & Night turned out to be fun: If u manage to let 4th skill up (with its augment) and change between night and day contantanly you will auto CC the enemies, while in night u can cast sleep, and while in day u can weaken enemies. Also if u use duallity augment it becomes more interesting. Try to fit Brief Respite and rolling guard can work too. It became quite fun to play... I'm still testing her, but this Day & Night cycle build is fun, and NightSleep is quite strong too.

    13 hours ago, (XB1)Knight Raime said:

    I'll have to disagree here.  Ivara has very direct styles to play.  I have one for spreading sleep, one for spy missions, and one for using her nuke arrow.  Limbo's way is less direct.  For him I have a small bubble but long duration for him to be the primary defense for static objectives.  I have a huge range medium duration build Strictly for kuva missions to seperate fodder enemies from the guardians.  And then I have a medium range low duration build for him.  This is the one I use for normal gameplay.  I basically lock choke points or groups of enemies down by having them constantly pop in and out of the rift.  it effectively lets me kill enemies safely whilst not impeding on ally gameplay

    Well, the thing is, she is highly specialized in stealth, but Artemis Bow is not that great, even with the augment + Streanline Augment, it is more worth to use another gun. If her Artemis Bow augmente didn't have the headshot condition she would be in better place for an easy play, i mean, your team mates won't wait for your aim at the enemies head, when u finished your first shot your friends will had already killed all enemies. I'm not saying that she is bad, or invalidating your opinion, if that is how u feel, i can respect that, it is just that as u stated we disgree with each other.

    I can answer that question. No, he's not a mage. He is God. And it really reflects the essence of God, because he is God in his world. But who is he when he leaves his world? In the real world, he is just the gatekeeper of his own world.

    Right, he is one of those frames with strong concept, this i get it. Like Revenant is locked by his concept too.

    54 minutes ago, selig_fay said:

    And it is one of the few frames that really has unique mechanics. I mean, all of his abilities work for the good of the concept. It may be bad for most people, but he can be great in good hands.

    I don't know if i made myself clear, i didn't mean to say that there no why to play him out of his niche, just that it is complicated, and we could have augments to make it simpler or more fun. i actually also have a build to play limbo without been stationary or troubling other, it is just not a very confortable game play (IMO), even if it is better now that we have shield gating.

    Just sharing my equinox builds:

     

    Day Range (for nuke/farm)

    https://ibb.co/7Nj0qf8

     

    Day and Night (Stay in night, and turn Day when needed)

    https://ibb.co/4t4XtNS

     

    Nigh Sleep Shield (self explanatory)

    https://ibb.co/yd9v2HK

     

    Night Armor (keep 3, don't use 4 ideally)

    https://ibb.co/Jyg3sQz

     

    Day and Night, Night Sleep Shield, and Night Armor, can easily do level 5 lichs mission. Fight the lich itself can be a bit harder. Also, they need good guns of course, they are at most survival builds/CC buils... Day & Night has more ofensive power, but it is not suficient.

    He isn't a mage per say, rather he manipulates reality in a sense as his bio says in game "Limbo manipulates the very planes of existence to divide his enemies and conquer them in the rift" so per say he isn't a mage, simply able to change existences/spaces his is stick if I'm personally honest with you.

    First of all, thanks for sharing your thoghts... And i would never associate limbo as mage, if not for Rebeca more then once refering him as such, puting him in the "Mage of Warframe World" position... But, i get what u are saying, it isn't his lore, maybe it is just her opnion too, not a official thing ^^.

    This is the Feedback section, so here it goes:

     

    Mesa: People gona hate me but, in my mind i aways see her as the most unreliable warframe in the game. She isn't bad in anyway, actually in my view she is in between medium and strong, and if i can make her full kit work she tends to go more to the strong side, and that is where the danger lies, after 40 Mot Minutes she starts to be ineficient, and sometimes potentially "oneshooted", i aways ask my self "how?" - Maybe i'm not very skilled with her, but her kit always passed a sense of security that doesn't belong to her (IMO), i guess that is my main problem when i play her, i start to relax and then death comes, actually i aways give a small laugh when i see another mesa die, and think to my self "ha, there goes your 'supremacy' " Actually the only thing that really botters about her is that she doesn't scale that well, in higher lvls using peacemaker is a waste of time, on the other hand, if it wasn't like that she would be too OP. So, my evaluation of her is: she is a 1h frame, i bet she won't do wel in steel path. (don't hate me people... i also had i time when i was in love with this frame)

     

    Hildryn: I like her, her augments did well for her, her exalted gun got stronger wich is also very good, i don't know if it (gun) will scale, but now that shield gate is a thing she might be a good frame to have in your party since she easily restore shields. She is very resistant, can handle enemies easily too. I guess she suffers the same grendel's prejudice from people, because she isn't in "society's ideal" shape people tends to find excuses to hate her. But she is very good, not a very offensive frame thought, but she has defense, CC, weakens enemies in area, and energy drops. Sometimes i hear people complaining that DE doesn't release good frames anymore, but i have a very diferent opinion about that, majority of the new warframes from a year and a half ago are very strong, people just lack experience with while loose their time looking at warframe's butts.

     

    Equinox: It has been the warframe that i spent the most energy to try to make it work since i started to play this game, i even used a Umbral forma on her. Day form has an easy logic, but she is too squish, even with shield gate, but as a nuke she works, shame that i couldn't make a "warrior" build for her, all i could do was a "build" that changed from day to night and night to day to cc enemies while i build 4th skill, but that is hurdle to play (feels like playing Diablo III in higher rifts, i don't like this kind of struggle). I tryed builds that could be used with both day and night, i tryed night builds like tank, sleep, slow and suport. Night suport is almost useless, it works, but is slow, and almost all other support frames are better then her in this aspect. Night Slow, doest the augment works? i can't feel the diference, when i notice i could do it i though "wow another nova to play" just to be dispointed. Night Tank, full umbral + hunter adrenaline + a bit of range + Arcane grace + Arcane Guardian = A very good tank frame, that weakens enemies damage, i like it very much. Night Sleep, everyboddy know how she works righs? And with shield gate this gives her another tankness form through CC and Briff Respit and 4th skill, not bad, not my favoret, but works. Night works better than Day, but Day is more used because is nuke ans "cheesable" , witch makes her more popular as squish than tank. I feel that i still have more tests to do with her, but she is wierd, i feel like i should make her work as an ever changing between Day and Night, but that is very hard to do, her passive should be "have 2 extra mod slots + points" lol.

    Ivara and Limbo: I will put then here together becuase i have the same complaint about both, they are the very best for some specific content, but i would like to have some good auternative builds to play then. Don't get me wrong, i know that there is ways to play diferently, but those are not very efficient (specially in Ivara's case) and cluncky (specially in Limbo's case). These are thing that could be solved with better augments, for exemple if Ivara exploding arrow exploded not only on head shots or if Limbo had a less chaotic and more offensive augment (isn't he mage? More focus dude!!) 

    Well that is it, i will keep doing my feedbacks when feel like it,

    Sorry for the bad english.

    This so much here, DE's main problem is also concepts are cool adn all but should not ignore the world building and connection and gameplay to the world.

    Hildryn, Garuda, Baruuk are all are some good concepts and some play good but world building? No connections? Then they try to "fix" it with the LEviran, a poor excuse of Lore in my eyes, as epic some stories can be escpecilly older frames, i rather have real quests like Octavia and Harrow, and not lame ones like Revenant or worst one Nidus.

    Leviran is my biggest gripe on concepts right now, big nice stories but nothing feels connected or proove of for us, no ruins we find or recordings, just some guy telling us some "epic" stories. If i only want to hear stories i listen to a udio book or read a book, i want some visuals in my game, why else play a game.

    I agree, but deadlock protocol was a happy surprise in this regard, i hope levarian will work just as a way to further in warframe lore, and not a substitute.

    But that is another topic i guess... Good remark thought.

    On the other hand, Titania. This is a frame that has many bugs and bad mechanics. This frame, which gave me a lot of pain, until I found my perfect build. This frame, which has utilities at gunplatform level like Inaros for example. But you know what? I am small and I can fly. Just the fact of it is fun. And I often see people trying to look at me when we wait on exit. It gives a certain impression, you know? Just one, albeit not a damn good skill, keeps me for playing this *rainbow ponies*. I love it, but I hate it.

    I feel you, not all warframes works like we think they should, and some have some lacking mechanics, some we wish were strongger. On the other hand, i think this is kind of the "magic" of games, when i start playing game at first i feel then really good, then i start to find defects, and thinking what should be better... i mean it is kind of natural process i guess, since us humans are forever unsatisfied (as said Freud). 

    Also, when we talk about warframes, since we have quit a lot of then, i think they should have a variety, i mean not all of then need to be strong, but they should pursue diferent types of game play, so to people with diferent tastes can have fun. I mean, if Titania makes u happy, and u can have fun with her, that is good enough i guess, having fun is the hole point of gaming i think, of course u can aways give your feedbacks and hope for the best. If u want be more objective to missions there is also frames for that... i mean this is all my opnion, but i understant your points ^^

    Maybe I missed it. There was too much chatter.

    This should not be the limit of fantasy. It should be the direction. Yes, it is possible you can’t change the frame completely, but some aspects of the game can be changed to have different mechanics, but support the same theme. Theme and implementation are two different things. A theme cannot be an excuse for a poor or boring implementation. 

    Revenant is a fairly broad theme. For example, limbo can be called a revenant, if you give him a certain story about how he ended up in another world and captured him in order to return to reality. You know. This is an example of the fact that the mechanics can be completely different, but still linked into one theme.

    I won't disagree, but if u want know what the devs think about it, and how it was constructed u should watch the vid.

    Also, i guess his name came from the initial ideas about how he should be, at first he should be a vampire themed, but people (players) thoght it should be about Eidolons, and there was born Revenant - His abilities are interpretations of eidolons skill and characteristics.

    Also wasn't DE that said the he is boring, it was DK Diamantes, Rebeca likes Revenant.

    Do not worry. I did not notice that they were saying something important about revenant. I only heard about revenant in one place when they were discussing the useless rewards of the frame parts that we are already building.

    Actually they explain how Revenant was made, why there is some changes that are impossible/very hard to do, because some warframes are built based in a theme, and Rebeca says that as much as people complain about revenant been weak, numbers shows the he is way above the avarege, and then DK ends the discussion saing that the problem seens to be that he is boring to play. I think it is worth watching to understand this things.

    Just reply to me with time of the video they talk about Revenant. I literally have no interest in anything outside of information potentially leading to a Revenant rework. It’s not my fault you can’t remember. So I will repeat.

    Wow.. was kinda wondering what happened with the partner program.

    • So DE would use partners to basically promote Warframe.  Giving them stuff to give away, giving them advanced sneak peaks or giving them footage to show off...
    • Partners happily play/promote warframe because subcribers = $$ from advertisers
    • Suprise!! Partners feel like they are working for DE(holding it afloat) and start to believe their voices should be heard over other players/developers.
    • Partners dont get listened to and turn into toxic trolls who turn on the game/DE...
    • DE purges the partner program lol....

    I hate streamers.  I dont watch them for any game.  I find it sad and funny at the same time DE has programs like this and plans to re-introduce the program only with no trolls policy lol.  

    The part where I get triggered is they dont wanna hear bad feedback lol.  I have no clue wtf streamers were crying about.  Without a doubt some of it is probably unwarranted,  but some of it was probably real issues.  There are many many issues in the game that make me angry/toxic.  

    Also if a company doesnt want to hear negative/toxic comments...stop listening.  But to actively start trying to silence it..  thats some evil stuff.  To try and manipulate public opinion into thinking everything is Rainbows and sunshine..  some countries are run like that and you would not ever want to live there lol.  

    ---------------------------------

    Now im kinda curious to know even more of the story....  Was there ONE thing that brought on all the negative toxic crapstorm??  Bramma Changes?? Stupid Riven Disposition changes??  

    Kind of off topic, right friend?

    But u can make your own segment in General section for discussing that.
