Will something ever be done about the state of Prime Access?

You guys said a while back you were planning on doing something with the Prime Accessories Boosters but I also think Prime Access as a whole needs a small touch up and revisit.

I think Prime Access needs more flair to it because with these newer Prime Access like Titania the Primes look like Primes. They aren't super over the top and jaw dropping like Mesa Prime's design. Prime Accessories also need something more. For $50 I think we should be getting Accessories that are truly Prime and not just fancy Tennogen labled as Prime. For $50 dollars we should be getting at least 3 top of the line Accessories that have cool channeling effects or moving parts. You know? Something that makes them Prime and sets them apart from everything else.

With just a smaller amount of effort and just a tad bit more generousity with the accessory packs I think sales would go up a lot more. Does it really hurt to throw in a 3rd accessory and make the accessories more quality? I seriously don't think it could do any harm anywhere and considering Prime Access is one of your only sources of income it would be wise to make sure you pour your heart and soul into them making sure they are the best of quality. I know Prime Access is for support but sometimes it's hard to justify the money for what you get.

I've been noticing a steady drop in Prime Model texture quality as well that i think needs to be addressed as well (Wukong, Atlas, Ivara, and now Titania Prime suffer from texture compression.

 

ALSO,

Will Titania Prime receive more Prime details if not a complete makeover? I feel she is really bland looking and needs more to her. Her deluxe should not look better than the Prime, especially for a Prime made in 2020 and not 2013. I was just expecting a glorious fairy Princess with intricate gold detailing all over her with a beautiful gold tiara or something but instead we got something that resembles a plastic action figure with 1 color channel dominating 80% of the skin. This is the first Prime Access I have not bought and will continue if the quality doesn't improve.

She is also effected by texture compression and needs some touch ups in that manner as well. 

Thanks for listening DE, you guys truly are the best... most of the time, when you listen.

Primes were never intended to be jaw dropping and to be honest, I don't find Titania prime any worse than most other primes. It made her look just right from what a hideous design she had with base.

Probably part of kuva lich revisited. DE are currently releasing content in parts to see how things work so they can deliver entire content once everything is tested. Weapons we got are just time fillers, more are definitely to come.

Ironically base titania body looks way more orokin with more and better placed metallic accents and color separation than her prime version...

Her deluxe is spectacular, on the other hand her Prime isn't...

1. Are we ever going to get custom primary and secondary weapon positioning like Melee currently has?

2. Can we get the option to add sugatras to primary and secondary weapons?

3. Any update on the Proto weapon skins that we saw a long time ago?

4. Several skins and armor sets have mismatched color channels. Do you guys plan on doing a review for this to at least make the metallic slots consistent or give us the option to color individual armor pieces and helmets separately?

5. Please let us use Excal Prime's helmet/skin on Excal Umbra.

6. Updates on Melee 3.0/rage mode?

7. When are the changes to pets coming to remove stasis? It is still a big hindrance to using them.

8. Can you please stop disabling certain face gear when using certain head gear on operators? From what I have seen people were way less concerned with the clipping than their ability to customize their operators.

9. Any chance we will get the option to swap out exalted weapon models for their standard/prime/umbra appearances.

10. Is the loadout UI going to be overhauled to show everything that should be loadout specific(Archwings, their weapons, archwing guns for ground combat, operator arcanes and amps?

11. Are we ever going to get a focus dump? Once you max the schools there is nothing to do with accumulated focus.

12. Can we get more Loadout and Riven slots or possibly just uncap them and let us buy as many as we want?

13. Now that thrown weapons have a comfortable timed recall, are we ever going to get the Arcata added to PVE?

14. Can we get mod capacity removed while in the simulacrum so we can properly test builds before applying Forma?

15. Now that status immunity has been removed from Liches, is there an ETA on removing it from other enemy types? Making enemies completely status immune removes a large chunk of the arsenal.

16. There are several items that are still exclusive to the chinese version of Warframe, including the Cadus, a chinese exclusive staff weapon. When can we expect these to be added to the global build?

17. What ever happened to Steve's "Alchemy" system that was supposed to use the infested room?

18. Any chance that we will get additional hotkeys on PC? Would be nice to be able to hotkey several orbiter functions like decorating or going to the foundry rather then going through menus.

19. WIll the acolyte and Plague Star ever become naturally reoccurring events like Razorback and the Formorian?

20. Now that they have been nerfed can we get access to the acolyte mods on Exalted weapons?

21. Can a system be added to use excess dirac to bump up Railjack rolls for an increased cost every time we use it? This would retain the value of good rolls but allow people to make steady progress should RNG not be on their side.

22. You recently allowed us to buy up to three additional cosmetic and mod loadouts but it wasn't added to operators. When can we expect them to get that feature as well?

23. Rather then rewarding mission rewards at the end of a railjack mission, can we get them awarded per objective completed like bounties? This would make the 4 stage missions more rewarding and getting rewards spaced out rather then in one lump just feels better IMO.

24. There are several PVP exclusive warframe augments that could be useful in PVE. Any chance these mods will get added to PVE?

25. The prime trailers had interesting lore bits in them. Can we get their scripts added to the prime warframe's codex entries. It would add flavor to their pretty bland text now and bring them in line with other frames that got entries like that like Excal, Rhino, Ember and Mag.

26. Kdrives are a cool toy to play around with for a bit but have no home in the actual game beyond temporary status immunity when eidelon hunting. Are they going to ever get a look to increase their utility? Giving them defensive functions when you are not on them like AOE  buffs or barriers tat appear at the location of dismount or even something as simple as being able to fish while on them would go a long way.

27. While we are at it, can we get custom keybinds for kdrives. Several of them are shared with standard keybinds.

28. Design council is pretty pointless right now, with it basically being used to vote on a few minor things per year. Any thoughts on making it more worthwhile/engaging and/or opening up access.

29. There are a number of useless mods in the game right now. Things like Warm Coat are basically just clutter in the mod system and rarely get looked at unless they happen to be tied to some sort of major overhaul like the status changes. Is there any plans to do a wider overhaul of the mods that get no usage.Perhaps you could even provide a list of mods to the design council and have them come up with ideas for them, or open that up to the whole community a few mods at a time.

Like 50% of what you just typed was either already fixed, implemented or talked about and is scheduled in upcoming updates. Rest is just unnecessary

I LOVE your profile pic, how you got it?

[Opetyr]

Betting you guys just say that the last updates have been bad and will learn from them.   Actions speak louder than words.   Intrinsics need to be 1/6 what they are.   6 months  is too ridiculous.   Also where is captain intrinsic? Use actions and no more BS hype tennocon lies. Look at liches and railjack and compare them to tennocon.  They are not even in the same galaxy.

It's preference, some like moth mommy, some like orokin mommy. But one is sure, deluxes are made by community, while primes are made by DE. If you think of remaking Titania prime remind that Frost prime, Nyx prime and Excalibur prime exist. Those need visual update the most, while Titania is just fine. Looks modern enough.

Titania Prime is to remain half finished as is?

Ok the objective difficulties due to the current situation but damn... it's 4 times in a row that you guys just do "cosmetic touchups" and what should have been "day 1 hotfixes" and then leave her to vegetate... she still got visual and practical issues that after all this time should have been solved:

 

 Razorwing skirt wings look bad and/or incomplete: they are missing articulation and the energy effects used in her razorflies: each "wing" is clearly made of

                                        multiple parts, meant to spread open  with the void area each part filled with the same effect of her razorflies.

                                        Energy trail starting from Titania's lover back looks chap as well and incongruent... should be two trails, one per wing

                                        Deluxe skin is clearly superior: each section of the skirt opens for razorwing and has a gorgeous energy effect on the inside.

Razorwing emissive wings are cute but aren't togglable and can be quite a visual nuisance based on energy color, and make skirt wings look even worse

                                        Solved due to extra wings disappearing when aiming in Razorwing

Color channels separation:  her primary color channel covers nearly 80% of her frame texture, too little color separation hamstrings customization;

                                        Gold accents/metallics on the body are mainly on the docked razorflies,with overall less metallic areas than basic Titania;

                                        Things improve a bit with the solstice skin: it adds metallic areas on her secondary channel, and more emissive areas on the body...

                                        Still, having to resort to a different skin for better color separation and customization on a new prime is to say the least embarassing.

Razorflies wing color is dependant on energy instead of emissive, it forces to choose between fashion and powers visibility: colors that would be good for visibility

                                        on tribute are bad on her armour and viceversa;

Armour accessories: Most chest armors fit badly and clash with her look, due to getting grotesquely upscaled, only edo prime "grill" looks half decent. (to me)

                                        Arm accessories conflict with her shoulder guards, most pieces leave a gap or clip with the shoulders;

                                        Legs accessories with pieces that cover the front won't look good due to not being properly scaled for her thin legs;

                                        Left Nidina leg plates look particularly bad with their upper leg plate stuck awkardly on the front side skirt.

Siandana: many have noticeable clipping and/or phisics issues with titania prime, currently Uru siandana remains flopping down while in razorwing at any speed,

                                        due to a bug that pins it under the roots of Titania's archwing;

"Walking" noble animation looks incomplete: it's evidently repurpuosed from wisp's with less hips swinging, "feels" and looks stiff as if lacking animation frames here

                                         and there and the fact that her skirt wings don't do anything, don't open, don't spread, it really needs refining.

                                         Dash, rolling and other maneuvers look bad due to switching back to standard walking animations

Exalted weapons: Diwata prime is visually nearly identical to the standard one while Dex Pixia prime simply lost the side "flanges" of the standard version...

                                         We don't have the option to use her standard skins or the deluxe skins. (or at least didn't find it...)

                                         Diwata prime looks horrid in Razorwing when tucked under the wing, due to being disproportionately big compared to the wing itself

                                         Razorwing melee currently targets enemy anckles, stunning Titania with ground collisions and generally missing the attack!

                                         No stat improvements from vanilla Titania's weapons... I would have expected something more here as is the norm for primed weapons!,

                                         Still no access to Acolite mods, Set mods don't work, no exilus slot or kuwa weapon-like extra capacity, no additional effects/mecanics.

Prime Helmet: this is were DE artists really nailed things, compared to her standard one this is much more interesting!

 

Powers rework:  so far we got 3 separate passes with a few quality of life improvements that should have been there when the Silver Grove was introduced.

                           Still feeling something is missing and that Lantern being a separate slot from Spellbind its a waste while razorflies need pet  mechanics

                           Lantern while finally functional could have been made into a combined function of spellbind and tribute freeing up a power slot.

                           Tribute now has 1 buff and 1 debuff relevant but all effects are still completely unmoddable, and why entangle doesn't affect all enemy actions?

                                Tribute "souls" have no actual use in game except making the buffs more annoying to use: they could be the focus for lantern using spelbind on them

                                 Casting a tribute on a lantern could add its effect to it similar to placing Wisps' buffs (expanding Titania's limited area of influence)

                            Razorflies could be separated from razorwing and become their own slot, with behaviour controlled similarly to Venari and/or Celestial Twin.

                                 Casting razorflies on a spellbound enemy or a tribute could become the new way to recreate the current lantern, adding synergies in her kit.

                            Razorwing could benefit from improved stealth when not attacking: currently using it in spy or stealth missions is impossible due to razorflies interference

                                  and makes poor sense that enemies home in on someting 10 cm tall more than a full sized archwing or frame;

                                  Also it would be time to "fix" the inability of razorwing of interacting with consoles, downed allies, doing parazon finishers etc

                                  Lastly Razorwing controls prevent from doing loops or going bejond 90° upwards or downwards turning traking enemies and certain maneuvers awkard

                            Exalted weapons feel no better than regular weapons due to lacking access to acolite mods, exilus slot, arcanes, kuva weapons extra modding capacity...

                                 Dex Pixia could really benefit from better innate fire rate or critical rate while its prime version really deserves improvements even if its magazine capacity!

                                 Diwata lacks the ability of hitting multiple targets or to stun lock single targets, let it lock to headshot ... its so umpractical even razorflies do better

                                 and it still currently targets enemy anckles, stunning Titania with ground faceplants!

 

Honestly waited for her prime and what was delivered feels underwhelming, her deluxe skin seems done at an higher standard, altough it was necessary a public outcry to get her razorwings animated... current difficulties are more than understandable but...

You clearly have not played her enough. All she lacks is buff to her passive and MAYBE a better cc like either root or sleep or sth like larva to make using guns on her more efficient. Because her damage is good (acolyte mods are not that great nowadays so she doesn't even need them) (Diwata will get fixed with archwing 2.0) she is practically immortal, and her cc is fine. 

About exalted weapons stat boost it was never a thing. Exalted blade? Stands as base. Exalted Valkyr claws? Stays as base. Regulators? Stays as base. Etc. 

Her walking Animation is working fine, intention was to make it look as hovering on her archwing thingy and that's how it's supposed to be. 

About fashion that's the thing, you always use what's suiting you, and since game has some logic about it you can't equip suddenly repala syandana on her archwing and expect it to not clip or stuck in it. It just doesn't work in real life so don't try it.

Do I seriously have to explain you why Chinese exclusive weapons are exclusive and should not be added globally? Maybe make Xbox skins on every platform? Maybe make Excalibur prime available for everyone? Yeah sure why not. There won't be anything exclusive then, and people who happen to have these things won't feel special. Pc players have their own exclusive that console players want or Chinese content that others want. That's balance. I could go on with every point in this comment we're talking about. 

And about fixed i meant Excalibur prime helmet

I just wonder if they intend to say when the nightwave II ends.

When the chinese version of Warframe was announced DE promised that all exclusives for it would be timed. These are also weapon and weapon variants not skins like other platform exclusives.

I can assure you that you can not equip Excal Prime's helmet on Excal Umbra or vice versa.

Go to the red veil syndicate shop on the orbiter or the relays and get their free sigil. Put the sigil on your frame by going to appearance>Regalia> and either Front Sigil or Back Sigil. As long as you have the sigil equipped on the frame you will earn standing by doing missions up to your daily cap.

Thank you!! Been trying to figure that out for the past week.

First time I try to ask a question for devstream, reading a bit around I began to assume I should post here, hope it goes through.

Since the new status revision I enjoyed having more procs and didn't think hard about it. But I always remembered the original announcement post  and it sticked. Didn't make any of it until recently when I tried to make a specific build on kuva ogris. Here's the quote from the announcement post

Citation

When you hit a Status Chance greater than 100%, a single damage instance will be able to create two Status Effects. This means if you have a Shot with 200% Status Chance modded with both Blast and Toxin Damage, that single shot will result in both Status Effects!

On DevStream 139, a similar thing was said and Steve added that it could also "double the same status".
But the fact the emphasis was put on having "two different status" in one shot both on the devstream and the announcement post confused me:

If it's just a new status roll, then why say a shot << Will >>  result in both Status Effects. The same "Will" imperative was used in DevStream, the only thing that started to make me doubt is Steve statement. So my question is: Which one is it  ?

My first reaction was that it was bugged and I even reported here, now I'm checking on you and will delete the post if it's not a bug.
Much love DE, you guys are great. 👍

 

[Alpha_Tango]

Please dissect more on how Railjack will be revised. Just end this extermination only mode on RJ missions. Is there a possibility of Liches having the capacity to be a capital ship boss (as intended) or even a special crew ship will do. That way they just stop being glorified Wolf bosses.
