  1. Yes there is. I often forgo the powers of a frame in the early levels in favor of using redirection. I like the customizability to do this and I'm sure others do as well. Being able to balance which powers I use if any at all, how strong they are if I choose to use them alongside all my other mods is great. If I don't think fireball is useful on a corpus map I can easily unequip it and gain points to use towards shield or even overheat.

  2. Not flaming, just explaining:

    1) GPS used to work perfectly two patches ago. They're trying to fix it

    3) they are randomly generated and most people prefer it this way. Try replaying the same map 20 times and you will appreciate it.

    4) you can join after an objective is achieved. I've joined games literally on the extraction point so that I had to leave the extraction point and get back on for the game to finish.

  3. - Aborting missions now forfeits any obtained credits, mods, resources or blueprints, earned XP is still rewarded

    - Dojo targeting [...] and made timer more forgiving

    - Cronus blueprint now only a guaranteed drop the first time Tolstoj is completed, % chance to drop continues to decrease on additional runs

    I dislike these changes and I hope you reverse them in the future.

  4. Good idea. Definitely needs to be more than invite only though. I have a friend I play with often he cannot 90% of the time join my session when I invite him and vice versa, but I can join on him when he is private which is generally how we have to do.

  5. They do what's written on then. The problem is most of us (including me) can't see the difference with or without them. (except Flow. That mod is da MOD!!!)

    What about Reach combined with snow globe? As far as I can tell it doesnt make my snowglobe bigger even though I've got reach at +22.5%.

  6. I have not read the responses in this thread, only the OP.

     

    I have an Afuris at 30 and I love it to death. When I got my first catalyst this was the weapon that I did it on. This is the nature of all guns. My first 5 levels with the gun were modless and then on level 5 the first thing I put on it was a fully leveled trickmag. I dont agree that any change is necesary.

  7. No, people just want to explore every single room in the mission rather than rush to the exit after the boss is dead.

    I hate dealing with these absolutes... I very much doubt most people are either exploring every single room or rushing to the extraction ignoring everything.

     

    Cant we at least agree that there are SOME people out there who are moderates? That both want to explore on the way and kill stuff on the way to the extraction point while only slowing down minimally to do so?

  8. I made a post about this last night, and after the boss the initial wave or 2 of mobs after him, I've had to sit on extract or hold players hands for upwards to 5-15 minutes due to the extract change / also the map displaying the wrong direction + no height indication for whether you need to go up or down.  I understand why players get lost in the new tiles, but even for us 'semi-explorer / semi-rusher' types that no we don't go 100% through the map opening every box/killing every enemy or 100% ignoring everything but are more like 80/20 where we kill at least 80% / get at least 80% of the loot the extra 5-10 minutes starts to add up per level and is pretty painful.

     

    And yes solo/private play does solve this issue, but its kind've nice to see allies on the map.

     

    As well as the benefit of being able to level a frame/equipment more easily by having allies to help with the damage output / safety net of coop play. 

    Thank you for your input, I appreciate other people who are in a similar position speaking up as well. I feel as if moderates are an unvocal majority as opposed to the vocal minorities of 100% explorers/100% rushers. People who neither rush there and back without killing a single enemy other than the assassination target or explore every single container seem to be under represented on the forums.

  9. You need half a team at an extraction point, right? So basically a mission will be as fast as the second player (2 being half of 4). If not even one of the other 3 players besides you is faster than 30 minutes because they get lost or can't climb vents, then you are clearly playing in the wrong levels. If you have your second warframe (frost can't be your first, right?)and are building your third you must have good weapons to compensate for your weak warframe, so you should go to harder levels where players know how to move.

    I cant simply go to another level when farming a specific blue print. But as you've pointed out this isnt my first, or even second warframe and while these arent exactly my first weapons either they're also brand new. I like starting out as "level 0" from time to time.

  10. Wait a minute. If you can't solo it, how are you sitting at the extraction point all by yourself?

    Because I work together as best as I can with my teammates while we get to the boss. Usually after the bossroom the map becomes more complex. I can kill solo enemies no problem (even with my base level paris with no mods) as long as I'm a bit careful about it. Usually the way the map works on that boss is that the boss is about 20% through the entire map and is pretty straight forward to get to.

  11. True but don't forget that the mission is scaled for 4 people. You extract one or two people and the other are stuck having to fight something calibrated for 4 people which depending on how your warframe is, it might or might not work.

    But if it's at the end of the level you could make a good argument that most of the enemies are already wiped out. And the hardest most difficult part of the level (assassinations) are already done

  12. WEll, that's kinda what I said. No matter what you do to online mode, nothing will ever solve anything because you either have grief from rushers or grief from explorers. You can't just please them both and that is why anyone with a minimum amount of intelligence says. Play solo/private. That's where there is no grief and were everyone just has fun.

    What about the proposition that people who get to the end get to be extracted on their own? They're not helping their teammates so why keep them in the level at all?

  13. First off to the "I'm not a speed runner", it is highly probable that your problem exist because you are more of a solo wolf style player rather than a team effort.

    I'm trying to use the text and voice chat to tell people to follow me, where to go, go up, go through the broken vent on the wall, whatever and no one will listen. Maps that used to take 5-10 minutes now take 30minutes+.

    So I suggest solo runs or duo with someone you know.

    I'm not trying to speed run. I'm going through the map at a liesurely pace. I like playing with people (I also cant solo it with my fresh level zero frost and low level weapons), I like seeing how other people play warframes i've already played for new ways to play them myself, seeing how other people use weapons in ways I didnt think of, etc. I literally cannot solo this map on my own as well.

  14. I fail to see how communicating with his team is not being social. I'm not disagreeing, pubs are bad. But if they aren't communicating or being social as you put it, how am I supposed to know what they want? In every game I've played, the only ones who bother to say anything are the ones who are actually moving towards the exit. Not the ones wandering around the map smelling daisies.

    And I'll say again from my OP:

    I'm trying to use the text and voice chat to tell people to follow me, where to go, go up, go through the broken vent on the wall, whatever and no one will listen. Maps that used to take 5-10 minutes now take 30minutes+.

    I'm TRYING to be social but people just dont listen. I dont know if they speak another language than English or what.

  15. i don't know what to say then, your being extremley unlucky not getting anyone on your team who knows how to follow the sign on the map.

    I do feel for you but at the moment i just cant see missions being 30 minutes long but as we all suggested join a clan it will help you out considerabley.

    But the GPS is broken right now. It will often just give a general direction and not a turn by turn instruction like it used to.

  16. you shouldn't be trying to rush through the map, explore and have fun don't get frustrated with other people who dont want to finish fast. you say that you tell your teammates where to go, well not everyone likes to get to the end as fast as possible hell i just love looking at the beautiful scenery. if you really want to do the speed runs for the ember blueprints go solo. Or if you like you could join a clan, our clan space sharks incorperated is recruiting and im sure there would be people there more than willing to help you out (including myself) so don't get angry with the casual players come join us more competetive players ^-^.

     

     

    *yawn*

    Join a clan, roll with people who are like minded or run solo. Why do people really expect magic to happen with PUG's? It's mostly horrible in *every other game ever* yet everyone thinks somehow, this time it will be different. It's not about people being dumb or anything like that either, it's about willingness to listen and different wants from the gameplay experience.

    It's a social game, start being social.

     

     

    Personally I prefer these missions not being 2 minutes long anymore. Makes each time through feel like an actual mission and not just a quick grind for xp.

    Please understand, and I mentioned it in the original post. I'm NOT SPEED RUNNING. I'm walking through and killing every single enemy I see. I'm trying to level my frost warframe WHILE farming a blueprint. I am _NOT_

     

    I AM NOT SPEED RUNNING

     

    RUNNING PAST THINGS IS NOT WHAT I AM DOING

     

    I'm _TRYING_ to play the game. But I cant do it by myself and I'm tired that I have to wait 15 minutes as a punishment even though I'm doing my best to play with other people.
