  1. Would it be considered bad etiquette to throw Teslas everywhere?

    Considering Tesla abilities honorable nod to one of the finest gentlemen ever existing I would say it is indeed a weapon suitable for gentlemen. Keep in mind the visuals might be harsh to ladies eyes. The Tesla can also be used in a more intimate manner so be careful and discrete when using them close to ladies. It is very important to get to know a lady well before even considering attaching your bombs to them.

  2. It's important to remember that while we are coming together on a same mission, our goals don't all necessarily align.  One person may be farming kills, another mods, and yet another experience.  To expect everyone to compromise their goals on a pub for your sake is absurd.  Individuals simply do not and should not act this way.  Each person should be pursuing their own goals and cooperating with others only in degrees that are useful to themselves.

     

    You can only really expect things to go your way when you take the time to gather a group of people with goals similar to your own.. or simply ask them nicely.

    Dear sir, we are entering game theory territory here. Games with multiple actors and altering goals have been well studied. Equilibria with beneficial but not optimal results for all parties are achievable and often most likely. Especially with constant feedback on other actors actions. See Nash's bargaining game and its many iterations for theoretical and empirical proof.

     

    Yes these rascals might get away with their misdeeds temporarily. But as can be seen both in game theory and evolution studies even fine gentlemen are very good at spotting cheaters and freeloaders. A gentleman will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger if you attempt to poison his brothers.

  3. The modern space man has a lot of responsibilities. I'm sure you are already familiar with common courtesy such as carrying suitcases, holding elevators open and shooting cameras to deactivate door lasers for ladies.

     

    There is however a special mission type where certain etiquette seems to have been forgotten. Yes fellow gentlemen, we are talking about the defense mission.

     

    It is very easy to get caught up in the action and forget that the primary objective is defense. Many gentlemen feel the need to put on their shining armor and go hunt evildoers in the far sides of the map. While their intentions might be noble this leads to trouble.

     

    First we have experience. It will not be shared when team is too spread out. Second we have resources and mods. There might not be time to run and collect on other side of map. And as we know it isn't very fashionable or productive to keep running back and forth.

     

    And don't forget about the damsels! While you are away chasing bad guys you leave these ladies fending for themselves near the pod. Not very gentlemanly. It is your responsibility to keep them in good company. And you might not even have time to save the damsels in distress if they're assaulted. Shame on you.

     

    Gentlemen worthy of their name keep this code of conduct and uphold their moral obligations and integrity with pride and grace. This is of course only a basic chapter on etiquette. Feel free to share and discuss more intricacies suitable for the modern gentleman.

  4. Nothing wrong with posting the video. The mistake you do is not giving a short summary of tactic and map. Then players can quickly decide if they want to watch video or not. Sorry, playing Sherlock Holmes to find out your special tactic isn't my idea of fun. So yeah, please edit original post with better info and all will be good.

  5. Good point Datasaur, but what about solo banshee's? Also, I could do what you described with other Warframes such as Volt or Slash-Dashing Excalibur. With Banshee it was just a bit easier. Perhaps a resistance, but not full-on invincibility, could balance this and keep them closer to the team. 

    Some resistance sounds reasonable. Unless you're a Rhino of course. Then nothing but full invulnerability is acceptable hehe.

  6. I used to see a lot of banshee players run off to other side of map spamming their ult in (mobile) defence. Seems they are more likely to stay with group now. More teamwork to pull off these attacks sounds good to me.

     

    What would be nice is if Banshee gets low target priority while using skill. Use it within group and you fine but run off alone and you might pay the price.

     

    And a way to interrupt skill if necessary. Perhaps make it shorter too.

  7. Ohh god. Now I'll never get that tune out of my head. Awesome though. Keeps you fighting. But a little whining never hurt. 1000 kills since last time I checked. And still being pushed back by you guys. I guess it's war. And some Grineers are gonna suffer. I'll probably eat their babies too, for morale. Heard about some african gangs eating baby hearts before going into battle. Seems like a good thing to try. Takes heart to be no1.

  8. Everyday I shoot them enemies. Hustle my &#! off. And everyday I slip further down the rankings. I want to be number 1! So this is my distress call: all those with ranking position below 4000 stop killing stuff. Seriously what does it take to climb up this thing? Before trollsquad arrive I want to ask approximately how many kills you get per day and how many you think it takes to advance up the leaderboards. No bragging allowed. Just plain statistics so I can execute masterplan and rise to glory.

  9. One second you feel like tha greatest space ninja jumping from wall to wall slicing enemies in half. The next you roll down in the abyss because your character has had enough of jumping. Then you fight a couple of moas and instead of jumping over the shockwave your character stubbornly continues slicing his sword and gets stunlocked half to death. But you see an escape! Just jump over that fence and you should be safe. Sorry no: "The railings are there for your protection" and even though you mash the button like a lab rat on crack there simply is no way over that knee high fence. Game over.

  10. Ahem... about the responsiveness of jumping. Uneven terrain, standing in front of railing, several animations buffering before jumping is possible, unable to jump and shoot on the spot etc. This is something team is working on yes?

  11. You don't own the game though. Just because you pay for something doesn't mean you own it. This goes for a lot of software/games. Simple example is Windows. You don't buy Windows, you simply purchase a license to use it on your computer and Microsoft has the right to lock the features and/or remove it from the system if you break the EULA. Just as DE has the right to ban you for breaking their EULA.

    Yep. And that is majorly #*($%%@ up. If a software company decides I'm breaking their "code of conduct" they should at least be forced to repay the money if they decide to withdraw the product. But I digress. This is about cheating and not software rights. I just feel those weird rules has a tendency to mess with things that otherwise would solve themselves.

  12. You sure seem to be an irritated fellow. Can't disagree with anything though so guess that makes me irritated as well.

     

    Thinking of it those security lasers sure are irritating. Localizing them sounds reasonable. And maybe keep the doors open if they are active. Too many times I've unsuspectedly popped open the doors and gotten "lazers in ma face".

  13. Please no more painful visual stuff. Really grateful for them toning down Banshee and Ember abilities for allies.

     

    The inverter thingy sounds like it could be fun. And that's what I'm hoping for. If they add more status effects try to make them fun and not just annoying. Sure they can be dangerous but make 'em feel awesome too. Like you got hit by some weird disease that has you tripping and might kill you and at same time that feverish haze feels kind of good.
