[DE]Zach Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 During Devstream 158, we made a statement directed at Broadcasters specifically to keep ‘Creator Mode’ on during the upcoming New War quest - we acknowledge that this was a bit confusing in its implications. For those unaware, the ‘Creator Mode’ option obfuscates information about your account, including email addresses in the login screen on PC. We respect the privacy of our Streamers, and wanted to ensure that no one accidentally leaked their information amidst the excitement of the Quest! In order to simplify our intentions to protect Streamers, we are changing the login screen to partially obfuscate emails for all players on PC. This is a permanent change and login details will continue to stay partially hidden after The New War. Creator Mode will no longer be necessary for privacy reasons, but will continue to obfuscate other in-game spoiler information! Hope this clarity helps! TL;DR: Creator Mode obfuscates email, which is important for player privacy when streaming. But, we are going further and just making emails partially obfuscated anyway independent of Creator Mode to avoid any issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterJ93 Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Oh, it was for streaming and not for those who are just recording. That was my only confusion. Thanks for the clarification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rage_Inducer Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 eh sure, why not I accidentally showed my email address on a stream on discord so having that not be an issue is neat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

16Bitman Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Please also add a button to show the e-mail address on the login screen, I once accidently added a charachter there and couldn't figure out why my password stopped working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knightingail Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Phew! Now I don't have to worry about the embarrassing email address I made when I was 12 showing in front of everyone. 🤗 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am also a little bit conflicted about what else the creator mode changes as of currently and have toggled it on and off for regular play just to see what it even changes. Is there a chance you can expand on, maybe in a sperate thread or behind a spoiler tag (of current questlines) of everything that creator mode changes once the next update hits? So that both regular players and lesser known streamers can determine if it is worth keeping on vs off moving forward for general warframe content.

Creator Mode Hides some common spoilers, occludes your email in login screen, and removes some common transmissions. Reverts Lotus transmissions to pre-Apostasy Prologue state. Operator transmissions only show up as subtitles, hiding their faces. Solaris United and Vox Solaris NPCs won't open their chest cavities. Entrati NPCs won't use their new names. https://warframe.fandom.com/wiki/Settings#Gameplay_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would be a welcome addition. Every console version features auto-login, so it'd be nice for PC to get this treatment too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)TJM99 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 My only other confusion is if there will be any Arsenal access whatsoever as "limited" is not so quite the same as "prevented/prohibited" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much anything that can be linked in chat is fair game. I don't know about other streamers, but one I do know deals with it like this: Guest: "Hey cool gunz! How do I get one?" ImaMFnPrincess: "Yeah, I love it! The way to get it is ─" TeethingKorea: "oy, Prin! Spoilers." ImaMFnPrincess: "Oh right. Well... you get it from a quest... that you can get after you pass Jupiter..." etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How will this effect the New War?, will it block important parts of the Quest, or only still block things like "Operator Mode" cuz some people don't want to see/hear or even acknowledge its existence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is something I would love to have, seeing as this is the only game I play that doesn't have some kind of feature like this. Could be baked into the launcher like other games like guild wars 2 and the like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
