  1. archwing have evolved into a simple taxi service, whil;e they can be used to shoot things/etc, you can also opt to not bother and keep using them as a taxi service, railjack certainly did not help matter, they remain a taxi service, yeah i see people using their archwing to go chase/gun stuff down, but lets be real, unless the railjack armaments are 100% pure grade garbage then a taxi service is all the archwing will remain to be.

    Nah. I was running all across the map. It has been a few times already, probably over 20 attempts.

    if someone else spawns the drone and it bails then you will miss it, as someone else mentioned, you will hear a sort of alarm/weird noise, that means the drone is there and you need to get to it quick.

    OR

    Kept queuing until you got a group that finished mission.

    • Which, to be clear, is why alot of people are arguing for gating of said content.

    Just because you would do something doesn't mean there shouldn't be a rule implemented.  i.e.  Just because you stop and look before going through an intersection, doesn't mean stop signs shouldn't exist.

    and yet a stop sign is just a sign, it does not forcibly stop you, you can easily walk on along right past it if you want to, but do people always do that? no, because they arent (always) morons, same applies in game here, some ppl may be idiots, but not everyone, the old system was fine, and lets be real here, who even cares if you have a straggler who isnt quite up to standard, most decently equipped/good players can carry any mission by themselves, again the randoms that genuinely got lost and wandered in will probably learn then leave, or if you are unlucky and get moochers, you can easily make a private group or just do it solo, all the tools we need have been with us from day 1.

    There has been a stupid trend for a long time now that somehow making the game more restricted is a good thing, yet it still fixes nothing, you can still have a MR28 standing there doing absolutely nothing, afk, leeching affinity or in open world just fishing/mining and contributing nothing (in profit taker ive seen plenty of high MR players just stand at the entrance doing nothing to contribute yet still get credit for beating the boss), it is nothing you can control no matter how many restrictions you slap in, you are more likely to meet high ranking ppl lazing around than actual noobs.

    I recognize people starting over, switching platforms and the like.  They are the exception to the rule not the majority.

    Also I stated nothing about MR = Noob.  If they are a new player with little experience, no effective weapons/mods, then 9/10 times they'd be classified as noob.  Such noobs shouldn't be in end-game content.

    and unless they are complete morons, they wont bother constantly trying a hardmode if they die all the time, kinda how the original starchart worked, there were no junctions/gear check/quests or anything of the sort back then, you just progressed as long as you could manage, and if you couldnt manage you didnt just try forcing your way ahead like an idiot, you stepped back and carried on at a lower level until you could manage.

    that last thing about 5 waves. I notice if you actually take the time to check peoples gear and see that they are rank like 27 or 28 and that is the only thing they are leveling it usually why they leave after 5 waves or the first Fissure reward drops has forma and they pick it and leave is cuz they just getting that for the day then heading out. I dont really blame ppl for  5 wave runs when I do them on public.

    its never that simple, since dark sectors, leveling gear or not many just go for some quick/tiny amounts of credits, beyond bizarre but its been done for ages up to present day and likely will for ages more.

    Sorry, I don't believe you. I don't think "the highest-level missions in the game by a fair margin aren't endgame" is an opinion anyone would honestly have. Byebye.

    you could play appolodorus for long enough to easily surpass what you consider to be "endgame", the previous poster you replied to is correct in that the starting level is irrelevant when you can get there the old way, this new system doesnt instantly mean endgame just because it starts off a bit higher, plenty of people have been doing those levels for years on end without issue even at lower ranks.  I think even DE hinted that the new mode is more of a time saver to reach a higher level rather than BE some kind of replacement.

  7. until they make sweeping additions to the clan/alliance system then anything they add now would just be as plain/simple and rubbish as dark sectors pathetic attempt, they cant just bolt-in another crappy basic gamemode without having a way to actually be able to challenge other clans/alliances, currently you cant even tell what alliance another player is in never mind challenging one.

  8. there are indeed some impressive looking dojo's, but thats all they are, their main role unfortunately is just to be a blueprint dispenser, a role that could just as easily be integrated into your orbiters foundry, the fact that in true DE style, the tools given to decorate your orbiter/dojo are about as basic/rubbish as you can get also doesnt help much with making people want to do anything with their dojos.

    I know plenty out there love decorating away and making theirs looks flash, I myself however only go for the occasional blueprint, so I have all my labs in 1 room i spawn in, my dojo is about as spartan as you can get and I see no reason why that should change, dojo's are simply irrelevant, given that clans and alliances have remained irrelevant since their inception, 7 years on and we still have the most basic and useless social ability you can think of, your profile shows the most basic of information, your clan, they care so little about alliances you cant even see another persons alliance name/details, again because alliances are pointless/useless, a clan/alliance amounts to a chat room, and thats it.

    Until something changes, dojo's will remain pointless, clans already are pointless as are alliances.

  9. I look at the stats of my setup and simply dont get it.  its showing Corrosive as 33?  Blast as 29?  and electricity as a whopping 1,629?  just looking at that cryo+thermite should equal a hefty figure, but seemingly shows the smallest damage figure.  The total is probably right, but the breakdown just confuses me here.

  10. Port?  modern consoles are just bog standard PC's, there isnt much of anything to "port", i would imagine the PS4 version will just run on the PS5 etc, its literally just a PC component hardware upgrade, you dont need a new version just for bolting in a new processor/gfx card in your PC, "new" consoles shouldnt be much different.

  11. wont ever happen, DE make a killing from riven sales and plenty more FOMO sales in general, a proper market will do the same as other auctions/markets, which will drive down prices as everyone wants a quick/easy sale, lower sales/less plat bought to buy those sales.

    We want such a system yes, DE however do not, their plat sales would plummet.
