    For that, I'd put it under "Mythic: kitsune" as it's a mythological being without a specific origin. I mostly ignored abilities, because those are for later, and "I want a kitsune frame that can turn invisible" and "I want a kitsune frame that can curse enemies" are functionally identical at this stage; the concept is "kitsune" for both. Also, if I learned anything from this, it's that nothing is original and everything has been done before. There are like 7-8 kitsunes in the first 50 pages alone.

    A lot of people seemed to think that "theme idea" meant "every detail of this Warframe has been planned out" rather than "give us a sentence that more or less sums up what you want, in as few words as possible." I kept the contest guidelines in mind and skimmed or ignored things that didn't qualify (abilities, detailed backstory, flash fiction written in lieu of a coherent idea, art presented without comment, etc) just so it didn't take a million years and the list wasn't five times as long as it is anyway. Sure, some nuance is lost, but this isn't supposed to be the Official Record or anything, just "hey, you, with the werewolf, yes you, we already know about it, shut up."

    Ah, understood. I was going through your spreadsheet trying to see if any of the themes I read were different enough to warrant a new entry and the only ones I might care to add were ones that were themes that incorporated a mechanic or gimmick that set the apart but I think your approach is totally reasonable and likely how DE will move through the thread. I used the search engine for the forum and used key words to find the oldest posts to help me narrow down my own idea though I feel that the list has pretty much been made and anything now will fall into what exists. It would be helpful if people could follow instructions or if DE could be quicker with deleting repeats but of course everyone wants to be the source for the inspiration. Thank  you again for your efforts and insight and if you decide to help create a spreadsheet for abilities I would be happy to assist.

    I suspect because a) the concept of a berserker is inextricably linked to the image of a big beefy dude in most people's heads, and b) she's kind of obscure, at least for me. Pretty much the only frames I remember are the ones with quests or the ones that can be described in 1-3 words (fire, kraken pirate, invisible spy, faerie king, Infested). The ones that just drop from bosses and have to be bought from the store kind of blur together.

    Same problem with weapons, actually. I don't see new ones in normal gameplay so I never change my kit, and then I wonder why my gear is crap.

    First, I very much appreciate what you have tried to do by making this spreadsheet. I would like to think that while many people might like a werewolf-like frame, sheer number of votes or duplicates will not be enough to become the chosen theme or concept. Their design group will likely brainstorm and vote based on which concepts have the least overlap with existing frames and that can more easily incorporate a unique gimmick or passive. Aside from rampaging around like a large armored kubrow I do not think playing as a were-frame will offer much in terms of team synergy like Nova can. So I am hopeful for other concepts out there to make the cut. 

    Second, I was wondering how you were sorting through the posts that presented more unique concepts. For example, I saw one for a nine-tailed kitsune concept with possible powers ranging from seals, tail smashes and curses. Would you categorize that as its own category or file it under a concept that listed similar powers? 

  3. i doubt that happens that often .. team blocking is gonna happen from time to time .. don't have eyes on the back of my head to see random Jimmy is there trying to go all sniper and stuff

     

    when someone blocks me i move to the side and carry on .. no biggie...

    You are right and I agree. It was just one mission that put me over the edge one guy was always getting in our way and all of us were not happy about it. Can't avoid everything. :)

     

  4. There is no kill stealing in Warframe. Experience is given to all party members for the same kill.

    I know but I was referring specifically to when there are a ton of enemies and a teammate would intentionally move in front of everyone so that they get a higher kill count/streak even though others may need kills for a sub mission such as "killing 20 enemies with a pistol" or something like that. 

  5. Something that I have noticed as I have played this awesome game is that players are able to communicate their actions without having to actually talk or text to one another. Based on their warframe's style the other players are able to support/attack/defend as necessary in order to help their fellow comrades. I think this is true teamwork and union within a community of ninja space-warriors HOWEVER there are those who would disrupt this chemistry with their insatiable urge to complete the mission/take all the kills or open all of the stupid lockers. I am going to list a few things that are very inconsiderate and should be noted:

     

    1) RUSHING AHEAD!! Honestly why would you want to rush through a mission? You get no experience, no mods, no resources, and no help from teammates. 

     

    2) Trying to kill EVERYTHING. I understand that we all want to max out our warframes/equipment but deliberately stealing kills or standing directly in line of fire of other players KNOWING that their bullets cannot go through them is obnoxious an infuriating. I understand if your team is in a hallway but in an open room there is no reason for teammate interference. 

     

    3) On the other hand...killing NOTHING!! I know this has been mentioned but I feel like it should be mentioned here as well that new players who attempt higher levels by counting on the other players to rescue them/fight everything or "piggybacking" is just not cool. If you attack an enemy and do NOT kill it and it then begins attacking the other players makes you burden. If you cannot help your teammates then you need to only attempt missions that are within your rank.

     

    4) Those elevators...*sigh* If you are the first one in the elevator then you wait for your teammates and should provide any covering fire they need for them to get there. If you are the last person to get to the elevator you should be focused on running to said elevator and not on the enemies.(that is what the covering fire is for) And since your loving teammates are focused on firing at the enemies behind you it is YOUR job to start the elevator!! 

     

    *Note this can also be applied to extraction zones

     

    This list is obviously not complete so please list any other inconsiderate actions that self-absorbed players seem to care about. NOTE this is NOT a hater post. Please do not name names or over use bad language. This is just a post for those who would like to vent a bit of frustration. 

  6. is it possible to have the alert as a vibrate instead of a sound?  Don't want it going off in class and even when my volume is off it makes a sound.  

    If you go to 'settings' you can choose to enable sound or vibration or both. If you look at the notification filter you can set the phone to alert you to all alerts or just the ones that provide additional "?" rewards.

  7. I got to say: were you trying to advertise the purchasing of the glaive...you have done an awesome job. Very poetic as well. If you started little short stories like this about new equipment and such you have my support. :)

  8. So I downloaded the new app to my phone so that I could be alerted (haha) about any new alert missions that pop up when I am not sitting at my computer and it worked for about 30min. Then it just stopped updating. I was logged in to Warframe and there was an alert mission but it would not show up on my phone thus my confusion. 

     

    It is likely that I am just incompetent but I would like to know if there are any others out there who have tried this new app and have had the same problem. I loved the app. First one that I can say I downloaded intentionally...it just doesn't work now.
