BloodyTides Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Seriously, it took me around 25 minutes to complete the excavation sortie today, I was finding one enemy every 15 seconds and it was the most boring thing I've done in the game lately. Not to mention survival when you want to go for a long run and there's just not nearly enough enemies to keep a steady flow of life support even when using Nekros or Hydroid. I know they have mentioned this before but it needs to be fixed asap, it's literally game breaking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(NSW)Fiftycentis Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 I think it was pointed out so many times with no response that we stopped doing it 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giantconch Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 I agree with the base of your statement OP, but, I do think it should be pointed out, that Europa Ice Planet tiles absolutely suck for excavs, always have. Enemies get stuck all over the place and cant find a path towards you, its a heck of a lot more noticeable when running solo since you need to at times travel halfway across the map just to find a group thats stuck on some tiny ledge that just cant be walked up but requires a bunny-hop to get over. Really want this tileset to get a little bit of TLC but some enemy spawn increases would be lovely as well! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagPrime Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Well, maybe have spawn rates react to specters like it does to teammates. Want more spawns, drop a Warframe specter and have things spawn more. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Europa is very problematic with the npcs path finding, just makes the issue a lot worse unfortunately.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lutesque Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Thatz because I never go solo..... at least.... not if I can help it.... The same thing happens in Bounties.... On the Plains when you have to Liberate a camp the Area control will dwindle and yet theres not a single enemy In sight.... On Fortuna.... kill 25 Drones/MoAs game refuses to Spawn Drones/MoAs.... Hell you no that bounty where you have to rescue the Captured prisoners by looting keys droppes from Jailers.... yeah well obe time the drop ship came with no jailers..... also I realised that the drop ships won't come at all of you don't kill the enemies. The profit taker has this problem too.... it refused to spawn any Terra Mankers that drop Archgun Ammo..... The Orb Mother..... no Coolant Raknoids.... The list goes on whether you're in a group or not.... Why does DE rely so much on this design method of tying everything to RNG ? If a mission requieres specific enemy types then it should guarantee those enemy types Spawn.... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AiLuoLi- Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 This is multiplayer game, DE doesn't care about solo player. People stopped talking about it because they're sick and tired of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cubewano Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 There's a lack of enemies in multiplayer missions at this point, the time to kill for warframe has gotten so high if anyone in your team isn't being hard carried you are virtually left with nothing to fight. DE need to up enemy spawns in general, though in your specific instance it might have more to do with just the really bad pathing because the ice tileset has always had a really ugly back and forth on that front. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nslay Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 I join random pug Derelict Survival (game option set to pug). Guess what? I'm never matched with anyone so I solo for 40 minutes to 1.5 hours every single time. Awesome multiplayer experience on Derelict! It's a Derelict-only issue, but I'm farming those Mutagen Samples all by myself all the time... On topic, in Derelict Survival while exploring and farming those Mutagen Samples, it's quite a tricky thing to keep life support up! You see... there's just not really many enemies dropping capsules (because there's often not many enemies). And unlike all other survivals, Derelict containers and lockers never drop them either! Fun! But you know... This is a multiplayer game where the matchmaking always fails for Derelict for unknown reasons (unknown to me). Not too long ago, I did an experiment with someone on this forum. We made public Derelict Survival games but couldn't join each other's game. We were always solo. He made a bug report post. How about endless relic missions where you end up solo even though you had a full squad initially? I mean, that can happen in a multiplayer game! I do love Interception missions. But there aren't enough enemies spawning to get 10 reactant in 1 round of Interception solo! Well, this has almost always been the case in my experience with Interception... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarrotSalad Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Its low to prevent people with snipers, shotguns, no energy regen and frames that suck at room clearing getting absolutely steamrolled. I cant remember which frame it was but back when i was starting out it was near impossible to clear some defence, mobile defence and survival missions solo I'd run out of ammo before i even reached the 1st extraction wave. (I complained about it and it was changed sometime later). I dont think any changes currently should be made to solo mode because of that experience.

Snipers and Shotguns are great roombas, unless you are running into level 15+ content with unmodded weapons/ MK1 Strun. If you are doing that, then thats on you.

(PSN)GEN-Son_17 Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 I do remember the enemy spawn rate being decreased due to complaints about it being too high.

(XBOX)Futarrari Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 DE said in a devstream awhile back when ask this , they dont like the idea of being able to solo play and have enemy spawns as if you was in a full 4 person squad . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. It's why I suggested using the Warframe Specters to help boost spawn rates a touch. It wont get players the same numbers as a full team but it will at least double what you get on your own, and, it gives less experienced/equipped solo players the option to increase difficulty, if they want to.

City of Heroes has an NPC players go to and have their mission levels raised, so it's entirely possible to put that power in the players hands. But, for some reason, DE doesn't wanna. They seem to be determined to find entirely new ways of doing things, which I love, which is why I made the Specter suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be blunt, the #*!% do i care about creativity at this point. I wouldn't be so rude if it wasn't for the fact that on top of not doing anything for the bullS#&$ solo spawns the hadn't also indirectly nerfed those same spawns by introducing AI changing and severely restricting access to appropriately weighted content... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GPrime96 Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 The Spawns at Solo Survivals is the killer without Enemy Radar, Primed Animal Instinct, and Enemy Sense. It only hurts the Team if the spawns go towards the Player that’s alone but Solo, only a slow rush of Enemies can make the LS drain become unbalanced very quickly. Running out of LS from slow kills is more understandable but running out of LS because only a few Enemies are coming towards you in every less than a couple Mins, not ok at all. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
