Since the Echoes of Duviri update, I discovered a bug with the highlighting when using the Synthesis scanner; I haven't tested this with the regular Codex scanner, but it might be the same for that one too. Apparently if your Warframe has the Scanner equipped, then you use transference into the Operator and have your Operator equip the scanner as well, the highlighting works normally. However, when you transfer back to your Warframe, the highlighting is no longer there. If you unequip & re-equip the scanner it comes back, but it seems pretty consistent whenever I tried that out in various missions. If your Warframe happens to have an exalted ability active though it might just go right to using whatever weapon, etc. it has instead of the scanner, so that might make it a bit harder to test it yourself; That being said, sometimes I'd prefer not to go right into a primary or secondary after using the melee version of transference since I might be trying to scan something in a hurry & not have Helios at the time, but that's not a big deal. In any case, hopefully the highlighting can be fixed in the near future :)

Since this hotfix the Narmer Factory mission didn't have any issues like before, so that's good! Although for some reason it seemed like it didn't register Freezing the Raknoid twice in the same mission, so I had to do that in a separate run, but I took care of that. Aside from that, I still frequently run into issues with staying in a two-person squad (My fiancee & I) set on public matchmaking, so I hope that can be fixed in the future too. After others join from other platforms, I normally get kicked as it stops loading, and can't rejoin most of the time since the mission objective is somehow already completed.

I was wondering what was going on with that; My fiancee had the same thing happen today during the MR17 test, but I couldn't figure out what caused it. It always looked directly behind her at the start, so she ran off the edge a few times. But I always thought the camera was supposed to be facing forward at the start for the tests.

There's a couple of things I noticed since the hotfix that I thought I should mention: Apparently the button callouts (A & B) are swapped for the terminals during Kahl's Narmer Factory mission, so you'd have to use the opposite button to interact / exit. It may take some testing, but also during that Factory mission if you hold Crouch and then pause, you can lose the ability to jump or melee after exiting the pause menu (Re-pausing didn't work, so had to abort), as well as needing to hold Crouch to stand back up (Might be a different issue). I don't know if that's an issue on other platforms as well or not. Regarding crossplay, I still seem to get kicked out of nearly every squad after my fiancee and I start our squad of two, with her Switch set to public matchmaking; This usually happens when more people join from other platforms as the mission loads, then whichever one of us started hosting the squad on Public tends to stay while the other is consistently kicked, even though we use the same internet connection. Is there a way to prevent anyone already in the squad from being kicked during the loading screen? I need to double-check how this happens, but sometimes when using the synthesis scanner to see where enemies / objects are, the green highlighting may not be there until you briefly swap to your Primary or Secondary weapon & back to the scanner again. It's not as big of an issue as being kicked out of squads of course, but I thought it might be important to mention just in case others noticed it too. I imagine that if an enemy / object isn't fully scanned, they probably wouldn't be highlighted either when that bug occurs; But I've always been able to remedy it by re-equipping the scanner. I think it does work when first equipping it, but after that it eventually stops highlighting things. Maybe by using your weapon or getting staggered while having the scanner equipped? I'll try to test this more when I can. Aside from all that, I'm definitely looking forward to Tennocon! I did notice there wasn't a discount applied for the Merch pack even after getting the digital pack (I thought that's how to worked for Console Tenno in the past), but I'm still planning on getting it. Thanksfor hearing me out on all that :)

Not quite a gameplay / bug question this time, but I've been wondering if the Tennocon 2023 shirts will be available for purchase online, like they had been in the past few years? My fiancee and I won't be able to make it to there this time around (But hopefully someday) physically, but we'd love to get some of the shirts! We've gotten it before, so it'd be unfortunate to miss out on it. Definitely looking forward to the Devstream :)
