Good news for ya; apparently Warframe is back up & running for Switch 2. It still has a few issues but they're ironing them out So, yeah, I might hop back in someday soon, & I hope you haven't given up either.

I've actually got better hopes than that, personally, for one good reason. Cyberpunk. The Switch 2 version has been in dev for a lot longer than a few months, apparently, and yet the really well-running build that we've all seen in vids that was used at Switch 2 live events, was apparently a build they pulled out from waaaaaay back when they had only been working 7 weeks on it. If the Cyberpunk devs can get something like that running that quick & good in a mere 7 weeks, then I don't think the good folks at DE will have many issues getting Warframe up & running strong on Switch 2, once they've got a dev kit. If anything, yeah, it'll definitely be the wait for a dev kit that takes up the most time.

Yeah, I'm not switching to another console just for Warframe; I want to be able to keep playing it alongside stuff like DK Bananza, so I'm hoping DE will have some way of transferring data to Switch 2's servers. The prices suck but I've yet to see any evidence that it won't be worth the extra saving-up needed, at least for me.

I was scrolling around earlier & came across a little list of games that aren't [yet] fully compatible with Switch 2, and apparently Warframe is one of them? I'm assuming this is because of the cloud-based nature of its save file; is this something that the devs can resolve? I'd really hate losing my Warframe save...

So I'm not strong enough to farm Alert 4 enemies from signal beacons to get Toroids. I heard, however, that there's 14 specific caves they can pop up in at random. So I made a point of loc-pinning them and doing a few runs. Three runs of all 14 caves, and not a single Toroid... There's no way such abysmal odds are normal. Do they just not spawn in caves anymore? If not, then what's a good way to farm them solo, without needing a full end-game set-up for high-end beacon enemy farming?
