[Disruption needs to be adjusted to encourage actually doing the mission correctly]

I think giving the lens or medallion or whatever else as a separate bonus item is good, but not 100% chance, it can be kept the same chance as it is now but instead of it replacing your relic reward you get it in addition to the relic.

As for people that want to keep A rotation, not much can do there xD maybe add another disruption that only gives Lith relics in the entire pool, if that's the use case here.

If you fail to protect a node in round 1, the mission concludes in failure and all players are immediately ejected from the mission.

Remember that sorties also have disruption and people frequently fail at least one there, and I don't think DE wants to have exceptions on so many things so it'll be simpler to just not fail if one gets destroyed... it also teaches the wrong thing, that players HAVE to do all nodes.

 

 

What I'd like for disruption is some QOL:

- less time between rounds, people have no patience to not kill enemies and therefore we get slower for not waiting until round starts.

(or alternatively keep the timer but allow keys to drop from the moment the last round ended)

- don't despawn same color keys when one is used, either it's intended to carry them over or not, don't make it this awkward fiddling of holding keys

(they should stop spawning ofc)

- avoid spawning keyholder enemies far from nodes, like when someone goes towards extraction they get a lot of key holders there making it extra slow for people that want to continue, especially if they kill them and drop keys

- allow keys to be picked up immediately as they drop, they have some painfully long delay.

- mark keys with 3D markers, as someone playing with full map view I see people frequently go past them over and over xD

- once a single player sees a demo (and is marked with enemy for them), mark that demo for EVERYONE, because that is what the player seeing that expects.

According to messages on the site, bots took all the boosters for existing players.

[Drag&drop mods makes them get lost]

If you have any kind of filter (search or tab) and you drag a mod over an existing mod causing it to go to the mods list, that mod will be "tied" to that search/tab and searching for its actual criteria would NOT show it anymore until you exit the mod window and enter again.

This is a very old and sneaky bug, I've even maxed some mods twice before because of it.

 

Steps to reproduce:

Mind that it works with any kind of mod, I chose elemental ones because it's simpler to find and it's where I find this bug most with anyway.

1. Ensure you have only one weapon toxin mod maxed, doesn't matter which one.

2. Open any weapon's modding UI that has the toxin mod.

3. Search for "heat"

4. Drag any heat mod over the toxin mod to replace it. (do NOT unequip the toxin mod first)

5. Clear search then search for "toxin", and boom, the mod you just unequipped is nowhere to be found. You have to search "heat" again to find it xD

Similar thing happens with tabs, here's replacement steps:

3. Change tab to riven or any symbol that is NOT matching the toxin mod you're using.

5. Go to All tab and search for "toxin", it still won't be there with the extra bonus of it not being in the riven (or whatever tab you picked) tab where you "left it" (even without search).

 

Please fix, it's very disorienting.

For example in picture challange says to kill 3 while aim glide but in mission says only to kill them before hit ground but won't work either

Well your image asks for both, not either :P

And I think you can use Vauban's tap 4 to keep them mid-air to make it easier (they don't need to be in flight, the pilots can be already on the ground)

[Abyss of Dagath - Dev Workshop: Companion Improvements and Tweaks]

Hmm maybe a good way to handle charm without nerfing it into the ground might be to split some of its desired effect (double pickups and affinity) to different pets.

The double pickups buff also has to be also split into 2 effects and to 2 pets, and preferably a bit higher chance to account for the nerf to actually be useful pets when ranking or when farming.

I feel the double pickups one fits on a dog better... also it kind of needs a rename to "resource boost" because it affects mid-run mission rewards like kuva siphon... and pickups would also imply affinity items and ammo and all sorts of stuff.

 

I guess the rest are not that wanted so they can all stay in charm mod: CHC setter, instant reload, energy refund, reinforced shields and giving rare resource.

The CHC one sometimes it's a blessing (nukor) other times it's a curse (khora whip), depending on the build... or maybe it shouldn't ever set CHC lower than what you have 👀

Amazing changes!

Just piggy-backing off the audio-impaired section in Conservation - could you 👉please👈 add it to Disruption too? I feel like such a dead weight on those missions. 

Disruption already has an on-screen indicator for where the demolyst is audible from, it blinks for a short time very similar to the sound, but yeah kinda hard to notice and might even be buggy :/

Buffs and Debuffs in Pause Menu
The meme of Octavia players giving their squadmates enough buff indicators to look like an MMORPG screen is real and valid. Worry not -- we’re not changing the buffs you get, we’re simply adding the ability to see what the actual Buff and Debuff Icons mean when entering your Pause Menu:

Awesome!

One thing I'd like is a mention of where it came from. In this case I could say Source: PlayerName's Mote ability. Or like Source: Grineer Nox's weapon for toxin status or etc.

Oh nice! So nothing actually changes for me. I was worried my cat would be forced to stay out for 60s compared to now where I can instantly revive her with Vazarin.

 

Would be nice if vacuum was universal too like enemy radar is going to be universal... and needs a bit of loot radar too (especially in duviri when not on a horse, why do I need to get in a horse to find plants in a cave xD)

 

I am also concerned how Charm will be nerfed in the next iteration :(

Found it:

Heads up that schedule outline times are not in chronological order :)

[Harrow failing to make me invulnerable on 4th ability]

 

This is a few seconds after casting it (it has at least 10s of invulnerability before the critical phase), you can see the screen status and on teammates, nobody is invulnerable and I actually got my shield wiped shortly after that so it wasn't just visual.

It happened a few times in that one map, no idea what's causing it, I can look for the log and submit that if might be useful.

 

PS: none of the topic tags match this, why are they so specific but missing so many options while being required :/

[If DE adds more Tenet/Kuva weapons, what would you like to see?]

Guys, reminder: weapons which got an incarnon genesis are extremely unlikely to get kuva/tenet versions, so for example Kuva Miter is probably not going to happen, unfortunately.

And yes, I vote KUVA STUG for president!

[Circuit survival is the worst of the modes there]

Well the "to do" things have to have some impact on the mission duration otherwise it's identical to the current option to kill everything in sight.

Optional tasks to provide more circuit progress is nice too, but then if we do the optional tasks in 1-2 mins there's still 4-3 mins of waiting around xD

 

In regular star-chart survivals there's sometimes other tasks, like in steel path you have the acolyte spawning so you do kills to summon him, or other times you have medallions to find or you might have a gun/frame/pet you're levelling.
None of that is applicable to circuit, only NW tasks might be which are extremely rare that their stars will align with the circuit survival.

 

Sortie 10min survival is also a drag, but at least you can bring stuff to rank there, still makes it a borefest for it being so long, just like sortie defense.
Interception with eximus sortie is probably the only one I enjoy because of the higher chance to get riven slivers (which can give kuva once a week too).

[Circuit survival is the worst of the modes there]

Whenever survival pops up I'm hit with a boredom status effect =) All we have to do is pretty much wait 5 minutes while activating those life support things... it's super bland and we can't do anything to speed it up.

It needs some incentive for players to do some kills or something else, maybe a random task of a specific way to kill enemies, like do X headshots or do Y kill with abilities or kill Z with melee. Maybe drop operator kills there too.

For example, if it usually asks 200 kills for an exterminate, then in survival it could ask 50 headshot kills to reduce timer by 2 minutes, and progress should be applied per kill, like 120/50 = 2.4 second reduction from timer on every headshot kill.

Could also have 2 optional tasks, each giving 1 min timer reduction, and 2nd task would be non-kill stuff like get all 3 shards or lift N enemies or handshake with operators =)

[Community Stream Schedule: Sept 12 - 16!]

Gah! The schedules are not in order, again. I didn't see that it's 7am :/ (mainly because I don't use am/pm in general) Missed the beacon, the tragedy!!1 ... but seriously, would be nice if the schedule outline was in chronological order :P

[Add important information in descriptions]

For example:

 

"Sanctifies the ground before Oberon with righteous fire" is kind of meaningless.

If that text area can't have too many words then replace this sentence with important things, like the fact that allies standing in this will be cleansed and immune to status, which is hard for people to find out by using it when it can simply tell you its benefits.

How about this: "Sanctifies the ground before Oberon, cleansing and preventing status effects on allies and inflicting damage every half second to enemies that stand in it."

If you don't like the "every half second" part then maybe mention it in the Damage label as "<Rad>200/s" (but then this affects the status chance because it's 15% rolled twice per second...)

 

This is a common problem with abilities and weapons, the game should not require wiki to get basic but important information.

[Clicked Kuva Flood, it put me in a Kuva Siphon :(]

(This image was captured immediately after finishing the survival)

 

I clicked the Flood one but instead I was placed in a survival which turned out to be a siphon, because at the end I got half the Kuva I expected :/ 

 

[When someone triggers a bounty, I've no idea which one it is]

I don't think you should expect players to know bounties by name alone, because that's the only thing we see in Zariman, Cetus/POE, Fortuna/OV when someone starts a vote for a bounty.

 

It should say which number it is in the GUI, not enemy levels because noone remembers those either.

Maybe even make it hoverable to show the exact GUI it shows when one picks it in the bounties GUI.

[No 3rd stash in earth sabotage]

You can see I searched the entire map, and every other player also did the same, we were all searching for the 3rd cache for about 5mins there.

 

So I can only assume it was never there to begin with.

 

Here's the map info from the screenshot metadata:

/Lotus/Levels/Proc/Grineer/GrineerForestSabotage/QsT5zEMdIqRL1B3Dw98Sg3UTBVUQAA.lp Z: /Lotus/Levels/GrineerForestRemastered/GftCaveExtraction01 P: 223, -19, 176  H:-42  Log: 2967.258

I hope that gives you the seed so you can run the same tile choices and if there is a 3rd please let us know where it was 😇

 

 

EDIT: Maybe loot-finding abilities can also pinpoint these caches? :P

So you lost the actual mod items, not just the builds? Contact support in that case.

 

I've played WF since Fortuna update and can't say I experienced mod configs being erased, I did however experience my gear wheel getting cleared, twice that I can remember, which I also reported. No idea if it was ever fixed but I've not had it for at least a year.

[Game froze when spawning Nidus specter]

Only thing I did was last week I uninstalled soundcard drivers and installed new ones, can't really remember anything else.

I think these settings have been like this for a long time:

I sometimes changed to classic mid-game but seems the invisible-fishing-spot issue was fixed so didn't need to do that anymore.

 

I only played mirror defense because of NW, and I rarely use specters to begin with =) I tried it again today as I mentioned above and I also used nidus specter in a 20-round defense fissure and was fine there too.
I guess the true reason was lost with those logs 😅 I'll try to remember to backup logs next time I get any sort of freeze like that.

[Game froze when spawning Nidus specter]

Well the log from that game session is gone now xD I launched the game today and forgot about this report (which was yesterday for me).

I really think the game should keep multiple previous logs as a backup, and delete ones older than a week on game launch.

While the "Get logs" way is simple in theory, it does require someone knowing about it beforehand and not succumb to muscle memory of clicking Play as soon as the button is available... which did in fact happen to me just now, so even if I didn't start the game earlier I would've wiped the logs anyway =)

 

I did the verify just now but there's no result given in the GUI so no idea if anything was wrong to begin with.
And not sure what to look for in the log, which I assume it's Repair.log.

I do see way too many "Budget overrun retiring read of " but I don't have context for that that means.

It did mention nidusprime a few times:

That host migration tells me that the host also got the freeze, because after it stopped freezing the game was waiting around, players were stationary and a few sec later it triggered migration. I don't know if the same happens when only client freezes.

 

I tried the nidus specter in the same mirror defense mission as last time but this time it didn't freeze.
No idea if the verify helped or it was just a fluke at that time, probably from loading so many other worlds before it (duviri open world, circuit and random starchart missions IIRC), however it did still partially load him as it did previously, game froze for milliseconds and then filled the rest of him in.

And the log does mention spot-loading:

I have this specter which I spawned in a steel path mirror defense: 

 

Game then froze for a few seconds and after it woke I got host migration, which probably means everyone else also got the same freeze :/
