Alucross Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 (edited) A few mins ago I was bored so i figured for whatever reason I'd try out the tutorial again just cause I have not seen it for awhile. Note that I have not seen stalker for days since i took his bow blueprint, I haven't even seen him show up for other people so I totally forgot about him 100%. So when I started the tutorial I was just watching the cutscene then a few seconds in after the text intro the screen does a bit of that flashing along with some lag so I just got that standard thought "my lower end computer can't play cutscenes that good, but oh well" and then there was the sound effect when the stalker talks to you...and again i totally forgot the existence of him and blew it off. after the cutscene when the tenno drops out of the pod i look to the right.... stalker: Hi >:) Me: what the... *slash dash OHKO* Stalker: Welp laterz trolololol Me:.......what just happened ._. I get the feeling he was waiting for that me to be in a weaker state...either way does he appear for first time players? i feel a bit sorry for them if he does unless he is VERY weak for new players to have a chance. Not to mention that I've been waiting for him for awhile (even if i did forget about him). TL;DR: OP stalker trolled me while I was in a tutorial. fix maybe?

Did you revive yourself in the tutorial? Is it even possible to die in the tutorial? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farren Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Stalker only appears after you've killed bosses that aren't Vor. So brand new players can't face him. I guess it's just something unanticipated by the developers so it can occur because it treats the tutorial like a regular mission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KEL_UM Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 that stalker has some AI afterall ... atacking ppl when they are weaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-HAKUNA-YOUR-TATAS- Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 No I didn't revive. Yes you can die in the tutorial. Wow. It's a bit crazy stalker can get you in the tutorial. Then again, a new player technically can't be stalked, because the Stalker has no one to avenge yet. =/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-HAKUNA-YOUR-TATAS- Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 that stalker has some AI afterall ... atacking ppl when they are weaker I don't know if it's a bit tinfoil hat, but every time I forma a frame and go in unranked, or when my primary is unranked again (like for the Strun Wraith) stalker shows up. Maybe it's a coincidence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farren Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 The Stalker has some AI after all ... atacking ppl when they are weaker. He does have fair AI, but he hasn't been optimized so the bugs still occur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, a new player technically can't be stalked, because the Stalker has no one to avenge yet. =/ I think I remember meeting him a couple times before when he didn't mention a boss I killed. So I don't think it matters if he needs some one to avenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkacikPLz Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 (edited) For every single time he gets shredded with dread or frozen with snowglobe he takes his revenge on tutorial players. I think I remember meeting him a couple times before when he didn't mention a boss I killed. So I don't think it matters if he needs some one to avenge. Nope, you need to kill a boss. If you don't see his messages in public match, then it means he wasn't after you. Edited September 4, 2013 by SkacikPLz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jelan Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 He does have fair AI, but he hasn't been optimized so the bugs still occur. He does, except he can't do anything if you're circling around him :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah thanks, I couldn't remember if you needed to kill a boss or not. I rarely ever see him for me so I don't see his text often. I only ever see him come for me every few days but I at least get to see him for others almost everyday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds like a horramasing experience IKR!!! such a **** I don't see him for days when I'm somewhat ready for him then all the sudden he shows up when I'm like a rank 1 excal in a tutorial? I swear he must have been ticked off that I took his bow blueprint to pull that with me...oh hes gonna get it next time I see him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alucross Posted September 4, 2013 Author Share Posted September 4, 2013 They should definitely leave this in. It isn't really hurting anyone and it's hilarious. this actually is, its a waste of a chance at fighting him. As soon as i was able to control the warframe he just slash dashed me giving me absolutely no chance at fighting him wasting that random appearance. still, i kinda chuckled and thought "you sneaky son of a *****. welp time to wait a few more hours till i see him again IF im lucky >.>" I hope to god he doesn't wait another 3-4 days to pop up again.

Khale_Kitha Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 I do wish that the Stalker was a bit smarter, though. "You will pay for murdering Councilor Vey Hek..." Me: "Who??" Me: *Dead* A day later, I get to the end of Earth. "Oh, that guy. Nice to meet you, Mr. Hek." LoL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G3m1n1 Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Personally, I think this is awesome and hilarious. I might have died laughing if this happened to me! Given that death has zero penalty, I see no reason for DE to change this behavior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taiiat Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 He does have fair AI, but he hasn't been optimized so the bugs still occur. i can imagine people farming Stalker in the Tutorial now that more reports of him in the Tutorial are coming up. He does, except he can't do anything if you're circling around him :3 or if you're far away. he tries to use Dread, but he's horrible at aiming, because he's constantly moving. so he misses every shot. i took him out from across a large room, standing still, using Gremlins. i just shot at him until the projectiles happened to hit him coincidentally. then i lol'd that Stalker is easymode if you're not close to him.

Lone_Tenno_Operative Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 i can imagine people farming Stalker in the Tutorial now that more reports of him in the Tutorial are coming up. just to say , i find him almost always after me or someone in nightmare mod when there is no shields and no energy mod, it really seems to me ,that he always shows there when this and only this mod kicks in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
