Kozu12345 Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Once in a while in a random mission, i will constantly hear exhaling sound effects. its something like "haah" every 5 to 10 seconds. i though it was kinda creepy because i don't see anything like this on the internet. Help me out! What is this exhaling sound effect in the background?! i thought it would be a stalker, but he didn't turn up. and what's ironic is that i'm using unranked equipments. And that is one of the criteria for him to turn up. (ofcourse i have the stalker marked like 5 times already) -i only noticed this in Sedna Hydron Mobile defence mission since wave 1.

Gabbynaru Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Are you playing with pubs? Cause someone might have forgotten their mic on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don_T_Shoot Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Was someone using an Ignis? Or possibly Ignis Wraith? One, or both, of them makes a weird sound after releasing the trigger. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(XBOX)Tanta Cinta Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Uh oh boys, do you think DE might have secretly implemented something that the community has to investigate?? It’s been a while since we’ve done that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, stalker likely uses the old conclave ranking system, were equips, warframe and the mods determine said value, based on my experience, this value is read at the start of a misison to determine the likelyhood of the stalker appearence, entering alone into a mission or without mods makes this value so low that the stalker chance increase. I have seen this happen many, many times, literally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause I always meet the Stalker when I rank up my equipment, while he barely shows up when I'm fully geared. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can all fall victim to confirmation bias. There is nothing in the wiki or in DE's files that indicate that Stalker has any other criteria than simple RNG. The only rule that DE put in place was that Stalker wouldn't come for you if your frame is low ranked, which is counter to your suggestions that lower-ranked gear increases the chance of Stalker. If your anecdotes count as evidence, then my counter anecdotes should count as well, as I seem to meet Stalker far more often when I have fully ranked gear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you playing solo or with pubs? Because the more people are in the group, the higher the chances of Stalker to show up, whereas in solo, it's one static chance, which, yes, according to my anecdotal evidence, makes him look like he's very biased towards unranked equipment, including frames. I always meet the Stalker when ranking a brand new frame. Wisp? Check. Hyldrin? Check. Khora? Check. Revenant? Check... any new frame I use seems to attract him like a shark to blood.

I run mostly solo, so there you go. Your anecdotes are counter to mine. If you are meeting Stalker and your frame is below Rank 10, then that is a bug.

I was doing squad, but i can tell the difference between audio from the mic and audio from the game. it was not static-y (thus not from someones mic). it sounds very much from the game. similar sound to the stalker spawn.

KCToxic Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Was someone using a fulmin? Like Wisp, the fulmin has whispery breathing-like noises when in use. I don't know if others can hear them, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
