    Maybe, but then again, DE did admit that Nightwave partially exist to hold things over during content droughts, and did talk about "ramping things up" for October. A mainline is coming within the next two weeks - Melee 3.0 Phase 2 alone looks like it took a mammoth amount of work. This coming patch could just free up more hands for the two big items' final push.

    I'm not disputing you, but I do think lacking actual inside knowledge, this long Intermission could be read a number of ways; it could be laziness, or it could be confidence - i.e. they think they don't need a full season because they think they have new content coming. Could be either. Let's hope it's the latter.

    Missed your post but I fully agree. It's pretty obvious they're trying to free up hands to get Railjack ready. They will push the mainline, get hands on deck to finish up Rail, and it'll probably be out by mid November.

    Wow, 30 ranks with Prestige. Looks like Season 3 is nowhere near ready. Probably haven't even put a single line to the scripts yet.

    On the other hand, it might also mean DE think Empyrean and The New War are near enough that they don't need to divert any effort into a full season. At least I hope so.

    Anyway, whatever. I could always use more Kuva, and a second Umbra Forma for my Saryn.

    I'm riding on the fact Season 3 will probably launch with Railjack. I would assume we'll see Rail after this intermission.

    Hey, if Destiny did something right that Warframe could learn from, then by all means.

    Agree...

    I also like Destiny BP system. However, the community here would declare "its too easy..."..

     

    I'm fine with an intermission. We all know what were waiting for...

    *cough* railjack *cough*

    Dude, chill out, DE actually has a lot on their plate. Old Blood is coming out within the next two weeks with the next phase of the melee rework, Kuva Liches and Grendel. On top of all of this, DE still has to stay on track with their long term goals for Empyrian, New War and the Duviri Paradox, and their short term goals for setting up a new Nightwave story and rewards for next season. It is wholly justified that they need extra time to keep all of these things moving forward behind the scenes and not burn out their development teams. Lay off and take a break if you need one.

    Agree here. I'm the first one to call out DE on their BS but if what they say is to be believed, they gotta work on getting Old Blood out, and then ***HOPEFULLY*** Railjack next month.

    I've went back to d2 because there's nothing I'm interested in doing in wf anymore.

    I've not played d2 for a long time so there's loads of content for me to get stuck into.  And I like how so much of it has progress bars showing how much I need to do to actually get the reward.  I feel like I'm actually working towards something and making progress rather than absolutely everything being rng and having to rely on pure luck.

    I'll probably come back to wf in a few months.  Once there's a decent amount of stuff to work through again, not just a cple of new frames/weapons/cosmetics.  Maybe once the new war drops or duviri.  

    In the same boat here pretty much.

    I kinda like this competition. WF is feeling boring lately so I switched over to D2. Not saying that WF is a bad game, but our last main story quest line (chimera prologue) was over a year ago. Raids still have yet to return, melee 3.0 is still not here, neither is the new war, etc. Sure, we could give DE credit for gas city rework, Wisp and Gauss, hostile mergers/disruption and ropalolyst fight (though still buggy), but it gets stale really quick. I still like WF as a game, but hopefully the addition of another looter shooter in the f2p market will make DE feel like they have some kind of competition and will work to get better. 

    I’m hoping the same thing. Warframe has really sparked my interest since PoE, hoping that the end of the year will see many exciting things for WF! 

  7. What are your guys predictions for the dev stream? 

    Do you think we will get a mainline next week?

    Do you think there will be any discussion about Emperyean?

    What are you most excited for?

    Cheers!

    Your thread seems to be rather contradictory.

    "No one cares about Destiny!"

    "Oh and by the way, if you're bored, go play Destiny"

    Shall we also glide past the fact that you, as someone who apparently doesn't care about Destiny, have made a thread about Destiny?

    When did I say I didn't care?

    I'm simplying saying there is no reason to panic.

    Sure, if you're bored, go play destiny? I'm saying not to WORRY about destinys growth, because it benefits everyone.

    You're right, brb, making a thread about how I'm playing it right now.

    Do I get bonus internet points if I express dislike of certain things in the game, or does it have to be a complete "I quit" post?

    I quit is is +100 cool points.

    The idea of this thread is not to S#&$ on warframe or destiny, just simply state we as PLAYERS win in the situation. We get a better game, and have two games to play. Whats not to enjoy?

    But at the same time, just like every other form of "competition" Warframe has had, how long is D2's popularity going to hold and is it even competition in the first place?

    There is a lot yet to be seen with D2 between seeing if they'll actually change their model now that they're self-published and if it's going to continue with paid-only expansions. If old problems persist or if the fp2 section will remain as it is then players might start falling off at some point.

    Also judging from the reviews it has already gotten a considerable number of players are ones with hundreds to thousands of hours into the game pre-steam. The game still holds it's own dedicated fans that aren't going to be providing any actual competition.

    There is also the fact that the games aren't actually all that similar besides sharing the sci-fi theme and having both guns and abilities.

    I agree. Destiny 2 for sure has the leg up on pvp, that kinda combat. The paid expansions could be a barrier to some WF casuals.

    WF dominates in the term "fullyfree"

    While competition is good Destiny and Warframe provide different experiences as someone who spent almost 60 hours in Destiny 2 i have never been so frustrated grinding in a game even the worst moments in Warframe never made me this upset.I feel if people enjoy certain parts of Warframe its uniqueness,movement,power fantasy and dynamic they wont exactly enjoy Destiny because even though its a game about getting loot its moment to moment gameplay and feeling is not the same 

    100% Agree. Warframes movement is unmatched, and playing Destiny 2 after a few minutes, I wish I could climb up walls and crap like in WF.

    They both scratch a certain itch IMO.

    True. It also could help both developers to better understand their playerbases, assuming they will listen to feedback or play the games themselves, of course.

    Can confirm, 90% of my friends are playing D2 now, teaming up for Sorties in WF and then going back to D2 :clem:

    Same here. Been having a blast doing D2 raids. Warframe's movement and feel is just so much better though. Hopefully Railjack knocks it out of the park so I have a reason to come back.

    Don't forget almost every other multiplayer games has a Halloween Event going as well. Can't see why these DE folks don't have something for the occasion. Not a real big deal but it does give people something else to do. What do we have here? A completely dead week while we wait for NW Intermission. Come on DE who is doing your planning? You actually want people to go play other games? You do know they may not come back to yours?

    They don't seem to care much anymore. Release a cash grab ornament and call it a day. I've been with this company since day one, closed beta day one, but the last dev stream really pushed me the wrong way. Zero information about this update we've been hearing about since LAST JULY 2018. 

     

    The fact there no "live events" *LOOK AT DESTINY 2!!* is sad.

  14. There is zero need to be concerned about Destiny 2's rising growth. Here is the bottom line: Competition is good. Yes we all love Warframe, but having a close competitor to Warframe is great. Why? It's simple, two massive hands in the pot means developers need to work harder, and produce more quality content to grab players. This year, DE has outlined a slew of content they wanted to release, theres only 3 months left in the year and we've only seen a titleset rework, a frame, and... that's about it.

    Going into 2020, Destiny 2 is sure to pick up some speed, now that it's F2P. Competition will make DE work harder to earn players. 

     

    EDIT: FOR THE RECORD: I am not saying Destiny 2 is a better game, Warframe has a boat load of more content. HOWEVER, competition in the looter shooter market is good for us as "gamers"
