From what I have been seeing, people play for a few months, get everything then complain they have nothing to do. That is the point I am making. The Vets were and are the foundation upon which Warframe is built. DE has been stripping that foundation from the game away, and thus many Vets are leaving. The community is changing also, and not always for the better because of it. Warframe has a TON of potential, and it could stick around for many more years. It won't however if they do not start taking into consideration the concerns of the current crop of Vets. The points they are making are very valid to the long term sustainability of Warframe. As I said the carousel only spins so far on Vapid content before people realise it is time to get off and not worth sticking around for. Warframe has been around for 7 years. It is not because of the efforts of people complaining after they joined in 2018. It is because of the things DE and the community prior to that had built. The problem is much of what was built has been stripped. It shows and it is catching up to DE now. Assumption for the sake of discussion. Personally, the day Warframe ends, either on my end or DE's, is the day I just quietly move on. Like I said in another thread, I have a personal written pledge to that effect. And again, how is that DE's problem? They've already explicitly stated they want a game people can take breaks from and come back to. It is not a problem even in the industry at large; a lot of live service games go through cycles of player lulls and spikes, and all do fine. Again, if you're not enjoying it, take breaks, do something else, come back when new content arrives. Players leave. They left in 2013, and they're going to leave now no matter what the devs do. Opinions need to be evaluated objectively. Just being there "from the beginning" does not automatically elevate them above everybody else's. To claim the contrary is the epitome of entitlement; it's "your game," therefore everybody else matter less than you. In fact, they are often biased by their experiences, as I demonstrated with the Void Keys and Raids. As I said, it would certainly be nice to have sustainable content for both vets and newer players, but rose-tinted glasses and entitlement helps no one.

They stopped doing those simply because they take too much dev time. It sucks, I know. They need new ways to give us warframe related lore like comics or codex entries or whatevers I want to tell me the truth right now. Do you REALLY think that a game that gets as much money as Warframe, the "biggest F2P game ever" [outside of Fortnite, obvs], is simply so lacking in dev time and resources that they can no longer make QUESTS FOR THEIR MAIN SELLING POINT? Or that their dev time is just so tight that we have to wait half a year or MORE for one single content update? You really want people to believe this when even some indie devs deliver content faster than DE? Even for something as simply as a deluxe skin for Titania, they've taken OVER A YEAR!! A simple skin......and it has taken over a year to make. I just cannot believe a company like DE has so few resources and time that even a skin takes over a year to make for them. When even the Warframe partners are starting to speak out and flatout leave, something NEEDS to be done and it seems like DE just doesn't seem to care.

You saying it's fine to continue having no content from now to December?

Rio is right in many ways. That said, for me DE has built up enough good will that I am willing to give them a couple years after Railjack's release to get it right, to see Steve's big dream for the game he wanted Warframe to be. At least get its bones together. Tie in all of Warframes current and future content. Rejuevenate the old content and address the major flaws we see. If after say 1.5-2 years after Railjack is released, DE does not look at long term sustainability, replay-ability, player retention of the game then I will rethink where I stand. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a reason for that. You're choosing to ignore that significant difference. There is a far lager base of veteran players with ghastly large number of hours in game still sticking around Warframe for a reason, and many of them now are reconsidering that, for a good reason. Because what caused them to stick around, has been stripped away, and has not been addressed. It is those same long term Vets that helped build the Warframe community, and make it what it is today, that too is changing with their leaving. These are not assumptions, they are observable occurrences. I am saying Warframe could have its cake and eat it too. They could address the Vets concerns because they are extremely valid, and this will lead to further new vets down the road, because they have a vested interest in sticking around for another 5 to 10 years. Right now as Warframe stands, no one has reason to stick around for long anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Shavo- Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 vor 2 Stunden schrieb (XB1)Skippy575: Are Railjack and the New War not content then? Yes it is content. Giant content which binds lot of ressources. Railjack is part of Warframes new direction which is extremly different from the old grindframe which main part where (grind)events (+leaderboards), endurance runs and many smaller and sometimes greater quests. I play for 6 years now and in the past we had a lot of great events. Events which motivated clans to compete for the top 100. Which motivated most players to farm and play. Cetus and Fortuna have zero motivation for me. I am forced to farm standing and have to mine and fish. In the meantime I see barely any enemy and dont get my other ressources, exp or mods which I would get in the same time in a challinging endurance run. Warframe struggles at its own ambitions. They bind too much ressources for cetus, fortuna or railjack which leads to very long periods without content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you there too. That said, for me, Steve's big dream plan for Warframe is my last straw if it goes nowhere after that. I am trying to be realistic, basing that decision on the experiences we have all had with DE and Warframe. We know they have great ideas and imagination. We know they often half ass it, forget about it after a couple hot fixes etc. So, this is my gauntlet laid down to DE. This is their chance to show us they have their act together produce something that has been worth the wait,and do it right. After that, focus on what matters, and make the game sustainable long term, address old issues, and make regular smaller bite sized content in future until they learn to prioritise and organise their departments better.

I know very well that Gauss and a new event are coming next week but what content does a new Warframe and 2 new weapons bring?

LightNBright Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 3 hours ago, (XB1)Shodian said: Actually yes it did, it brought along a new game mode and a new boss. You know it seems like you guys forget how long game development actually takes. They are adding emperyan soon, that will give us a lot of content, that you guys will consume in a week and then start crying again. Give them time, play other games and then come back to Warframe. Geez. You also forget that smaller companies like indie devs and devs for path of exile release content on a schedule every few months with less people. They release good stuff but it only last so long, you can play other games but these people also HAVE to make warframe videos to bring in income, not only that but if everyone just goes to play different games for a whole year and only pop in warframe for a week the game will decline. The youtubers keep this game alive because the game is so unorganized and confusing to most new people that they have to watch videos just to figure out where to go. So no everyone playing other games except once or twice a year is terrible for the game, and the devs can't use the small team as an excuse cuz other devs do more, with set dates, more frequently. And a lot of the things people ask for don't take forever to implement, half of it could literally be copy and pasted from threads there's so much feedback that people agree would be great. De is a good company but idk what they are doing and if railjack doesn't bring something new and sustainable the game will continue to push people away.

Right now as Warframe stands, no one has reason to stick around for long anymore. I agree it would be nice to simultaneously keep the vets around and attract new players too. I am not even disputing the validity of their concerns. What I take issue with is the rose-tinted glasses view of the past, without acknowledging their flaws, or seeing merits in the present, and pre-judging the future without even giving them a fair chance to prove itself. What I take issue with is this notion that vets know what is best for the game, without taking into account the changing realities, the ways of newer players, and the vision and interests of the developers. There is a need to find equilibrium between all four here. Ultimately some point, it falls on the players, old and new alike, to reflect on their own expectations and responsibilities, and find some measure of perspective in things. At some point, everyone have to adapt to changing realities. This includes coming to the decision of whether it is time to leave and for how long. Life will go on, and at the end of the day, it's just a video game, and life's too short to kick up so much fuss over a video game. Nothing here matters as much as many people think they do. So by all means let the vets express their opinions. Again, I am not disputing their validity. All I've been asking for throughout all my replies to you in this thread is simple; balance and perspective.

I'm just not addressing them because they aren't part of my point, a point which you've tried to dodge in your reply -- abysmal grind for unreasonably rare drops does not equate to sustainable, enjoyable content.
