I *never* have that chat box open because of all the annoying spammage. I also live in a timezone where I can't sit up at 3 am to watch, but I can start Twich and go to bed with speakers physically turned off and then Teshin sends the thingy. Now you guys are making me stay up at horrid hours because I have to interact with Twitch during the liveshow? That honestly stinks... This is definately a turn to the worse I think. I do really wish people would read the previous posts. Lucky for you absolutely nothing changes. Just the next time, before you login (or after, do it whenever!) redeem the drop. It doesn't have to be claimed the the moment it's available or during the stream. The chat notification is just a notification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in 2017 we launched Warframe Twitch Drops and made continual back-end changes for stability, variety, and overall fixing. Now in 2021 we’re excited to launch Warframe Twitch Drops 2.0 - a more user friendly Drop experience! A VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: Everyone must relink their Twitch Account to their Warframe Account to be eligible for Twitch Drops 2.0. Follow these easy steps below to unlink/relink: Log into the correct Twitch account at https://www.twitch.tv/ that you use to watch Warframe streams Unlink Warframe to Twitch by clicking https://www.warframe.com/twitch/unlink_action Go to https://www.twitch.tv/settings/connections, then find Warframe listed under OTHER CONNECTIONS, click DISCONNECT and then confirm by clicking Yes, Disconnect Log into https://www.warframe.com/ with the desired account/platform to wish to receive the drop on Go to https://www.warframe.com/user and click the ‘LINK ACCOUNT' Verify both Twitch is linked by checking https://www.twitch.tv/settings/connections and make sure Warframe is listed in the "OTHER CONNECTIONS" section Verify the Warframe side by checking https://www.warframe.com/user (it should say "Linked to USERNAME") So, what about people like me where it literally took tech team involvement and about three weeks to link the first time round? We going to be manually awarded missed drops if we hit the same issue again linking twitch and wf? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate the visibility of the new system, but like others I am less excited about manually claiming drops.

(PSN)VKPButcher Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I find myself annoyed at these changes. Obviously not DE's fault as this is more due to Twitch itself. As someone who actively avoids chat in Twitch streams and on top of that uses the Twitch app (which has basic as hell functionality) on PS to watch streams for convenience sake I do find myself annoyed at the extra hurdles to claim stuff.

Unique1993 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I like the way it was, claiming the drops automatically once you fulfill the criteria. Should make an option to either opt for manually claiming the drops or automatically claiming the drops. That way those having trouble with automatically claiming the drops - can relink & opt for the new implementation with manual claim while others with no issues can stay with the old system by not relinking.

HeyKnee Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 You realize this is a bad change right? Now rather than maybe watching a stream anybody who’s interested is just going to watch their progress bar and jump out afterward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaderox Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I don't know about you, but 2.0 seems like a downgrade to me. Before: watch stream, get rewards. After: watch stream, remember to turn on the annoying spam-"chat"-thingy, actually look at spam-block for the rewards message, do whatever the claim procedure us, get rewards, quickly hide the spam block again. Can we just stick with the old one? I don't see the benefits at all, just more steps and inconvenience to achieve the same result as before <_< 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)kidbestcode Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Am I the only one who dislikes this more than the current system? Right now it's effortless... having to manually claim + reconnect, etc... this is more of an annoying change than an upgrade 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)ClaimingKarma Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 (edited) So many Karens here it's not bad your still getting free stuff don't ruin that with your complaining they could just stop doing the drops and only offer news once in a while and in general not treat the community like they are important to the growth of the game they know we're their bread is buttered time for you to stop and see where your is Edited February 12, 2021 by (PSN)ClaimingKarma Missing letter int that 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeracronius Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 From what i can read from other games using this twitch drop API, drops do have a time limit for how long you have to claim them from inventory after stream ends. Multiple say 24 hours, i don't know if this is twitch hard-coded or adjustable by the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanOfCraig Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Is this laying down a better road for drops in the twitch category based on previous complaints from the old partner program? I feel like a drop or two would go a long way to building back up the category on twitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S1lentCh1cken Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 16 minutes ago, TheAvidoZ said: That method will still work. The manual trigger is just an optional way of claiming the reward as soon as it become available to you. You can still AFK it and claim the item from Twitch inventory at your leisure. "IF you miss this popup and don’t claim it within chat, you can go into your Twitch Inventory section and it will be waiting there for you to claim: https://www.twitch.tv/drops/inventory " Thank you!

(XBOX)DropTheMike17 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Does this make it so whispering is no longer needed for prizes? Now that I’ve redone the link per the instructions I can see Warframe knows my Twitch ID so it seems like whispering should be a thing of the past now. That would be a nice improvement...

Twitch is somewhat vague on this. Based on Escape from Tarkov drops, they do expire, and it's not really clear what the criteria is. However, according to their own conditions Quote The campaign will be hidden from all views. Any rewards earned by viewers will remain within their inventory, if they have earned them or claimed them already. items will remain in the inventory. So I'm going to trust @[DE]Megan on this point for now, since I suspect they would have a clearer idea of their drop system; Tarkov's developers were already aware the drops expire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
