Click your name in the top right of the website 2. Click "Account Settings" 3. On the right side, click "Notification Settings" 4. Uncheck "Mentions & My Content", and other notification settings as desired 5. To be on the safe side, repeat 1 and 2, click "Manage Followed Content" I don't have any followed content so it's a bit of a guess but there should be some means to unsubscribe there, if anything pops up. Steps 1-4 will remove notifications altogether, step 5 should do it for this thread in particular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, let's say the reason is because the current state of AoE launchers means most of a squad has nothing to do. That means that nerfing only has to go far enough to make that not the case. That could mean beam weapons or AoE abilities are perfectly fine: they might be strong, but they're not overwhelming enough to make the rest of the squad worthless. That's your natural stopping point, because the reason has been fulfilled. There's no reason to nerf further. Likewise: 5 minutes ago, _LotusPrime_ said: if you wanna enjoy single target you go solo ,no whining okay , now thats the way If it's about single-target weapons not being good enough, then the nerf stopping point is going to be a bit further than the above situation. But that opens up the possibility of buffing, too, because the point is to close the gap. In principle, that can be done with pushing from either end. Doing it on just one end might not work, but doing it on both can mean you don't have to stress one side as much. You might still have to nerf, but not as much. And to reiterate: 7 minutes ago, _LotusPrime_ said: Becasue when you ask of other toys to be nerfed down its your ego , tame it , its not our job , okay ? There are a number of reasons people may ask for nerfs. Personally, I would say that some items can be detrimental to new player experiences. Someone who's been in the game longer probably doesn't have as much care. I don't mind if a mission turns into a walking simulator because I'm focused on rewards. But someone new to the game is more likely focused on the gameplay experience itself. If that experience is getting taken away, they're less likely to stick around; the teeth of pseudo-random rewards has yet to sink in to that new player.

And while i can do that in solo , playing solo in a co op game is rather boring too. I would much rather prefer DE gave me better matchmaking (which i have requested multiple times) so that I can play with like minded players and not be paired with those that enjoy bypassing most of the game.

Tyreaus Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 With all the above said: 26 minutes ago, _LotusPrime_ said: If single target buffs was a thing DE would doble down on it , we have been long asking for base damage buffs for various single target but it rarely happens , hell even some snipers have aoe now (not now but starting 3 years ago ) [Trimming the rest since my response seems to address it all] The problem with trying to buff single-target in particular is where the problem space lies. Usually, the AoE issue comes up in lower-level, Starchart-like missions - the sort of places everything falls over from a stiff breeze. That limits our solutions: more damage doesn't change anything at that level, and tacking on AoE transmutes the identity of those weapons. Consider how you might feel if the Bramma became a single-target weapon. Not happy, right? That's because it has certain properties you fancy. Single-target weapons are a similar thing, so to remove the single-target nature is to commit the same sort of error. There's some buffs, like implementing more universal punch through, that can help for sure. But they don't close the gap in full. You need a little something from the other side. In terms of DE's response, it gets even more complicated, because the single-target rationale is one of multiple. They aren't considering just that reason, but many other reasons, like the part about AoE being overwhelming. To them, some issues are more important than others. Some reasons better than others. Some fit with their design vision, some don't. Single-target buffing is one solution for one reason behind one problem. And then you have to factor in the attention and controversy side that plagues QOL threads, which could very well bugger up calls for single-target buffs too. As simple as it might seem to us, who might focus on one reason, DE's working with a lot of moving parts. 17 minutes ago, _LotusPrime_ said: no , it gets discussed not because of catch 22 but becasue of how collectively people prioritize things , its not automatic , its collectively a concious effort , and thats where im at , people's prios are not necessarily mean for the betterment of the game , nerfing lauchers wont solve it , qol changes dont receive much attention when they need to be becasue monkey brain , yes absolutely , does that mean its reinforced automatically ? no . and im calling people to not be monke and be human and see things that actually affects the game rather than whats the hot drama topic , its a call for thought I think you're framing things a little erroneously. Ultimately, discussions like this surround people wanting the game to be better. The controversy is that people don't agree what that looks like. And that makes sense: a better Call of Duty doesn't look the same as a better Dynasty Warriors. But it's not always clear what a better version of...anything even looks like. Is a better Call of Duty one that leans more in the futuristic side? Historical combat? Is Dynasty Warriors better with fantasy leans, even pulling from IPs like Zelda, or is it better with historical focii? And those are pretty clear cut bases: Call of Duty is definitely a shooter and Dynasty Warriors is definitely a horde hack-n-slasher. Something like Warframe starts to amalgamate, taking up all those vague questions. And, like I said, the controversy generates attention. Something simple like fixing pet behaviour fits within pretty much everyone's vision of a better Warframe. There's no controversy, so there's no discussion. It's quiet head-nodding. I mean, when everyone agrees, what else is there to say other than "I agree"? And if someone else has already said that, why repeat them? 12 minutes ago, _LotusPrime_ said: no , im ridiculing meme format as eing in an intellectual disccusion element because it is anti intellectual , memes are funny and all and speaks to the primitive brain sure but they dont belong in affecting a game or .. bigger things for that matter if you ask me . im teaching and giving invitation for a thoughtful process not monke see monke do .

Single target has to offer utilities that aoe dont necesarrily offer and thats where qol changes come in , otherwise either there is no need to hold a single target or that they have to really pack a punch or enormous utilities that compensate for their lack of area cover and if somehow DE decides 'okay aoe overrides the value of single target's existence' then ... i guess we are off to corridor shooting and warframe abilites till they get nerfed too all becasue not enough people push for qol changes so that single target have a compensation in the matter. mind you im still talking this from a headspace of ' i dont care about dps race in pubs' , im entertaining the notion that if there was some aoe - single target arms race , in a bubble or a vaccum lets just say , not that i think these considerations are in practise matters but yes i would still vote for buffing single target weapons because thats what makes them playable in player's consideration , not if DE gets rid of all aoe or some sht.

Be careful not to mix up DE's reasons with that of another person. Remember that my initial point was that people give reasons, which leads to certain caps on where nerfing goes. DE doesn't necessarily agree with all of those. And they may have caveats as well. Reasons can be very complicated, after all. For example, take the reason I mentioned about AoE being overwhelming in a squad. That only become the case with AoE of sufficient size, damage, and ready availability. Something like the Laetum doesn't have the size; the Cedo the damage; the Mausolon the ready availability of its big boom. Necramechs themselves are limited to certain missions. And that's if DE agrees with that reason. There's many other reasons, plural, and many other caveats, to consider in the broad scheme. 24 minutes ago, _LotusPrime_ said: Single target has to offer utilities that aoe dont necesarrily and thats where qol changes come in , otherwise either there is no need to hold a single target or that they have to really pack a punch or enormous utilities that compensate for their lack of area cover and if somehow DE decides 'okay aoe overrides the value of single target's existence' then ... i guess we are off to corridor shooting and warframe abilites till they get nerfed too As I said, the buffing side only goes so far in certain instances. Something like QOL of single-target weapons would be part of a more comprehensive solution. Take the recent Wukong changes: better damage on his 4 and the return of the range extension are, for our intents and purposes, QOL-like. But that alone doesn't fix anything; it's part of a package. That packaging also happens when calling for buffs. It might be QOL to ask for some fixes to pet AI. It gets a bit more than just QOL when you add in survivability, thirteen new mods, extra skins, etc. That can mean people are pushing for QOL changes - like this - but they're grouped together into something bigger. 2 minutes ago, _LotusPrime_ said: people can voice on what type of new ai behaviour it could be and even that itself is its own whole thing , people can just drop comments for their approval , even gifs and whatnot , meme game , theres tons of things people could be doing , And people do that.

The controversy makes it easy: you reply to what you disagree with your reasons and debate and so on. When you agree and want to give it more attention...you're supposed to post a meme? Upvote? Especially considering forum rules can consider some of that off-topic or spam, it's not always as clear how to make something get attention. Even I'm mostly spitballing from an armchair psychologist POV. 9 minutes ago, _LotusPrime_ said: and i maybe trying to reach an audience that doent even know me , bit by bit you can convince some peeps to see other side of the isle instead of ' NERF EVERY AOE IT DISRUPTS WARFRAME AHHHHH ' , If you're trying to reach an audience, you need to listen - carefully. Like I said, people have many different reasons for asking for any change - nerf, buff, whatever. If you're collecting them all under the same umbrella, you're less likely to reach anyone. If people don't feel like they're listened to, they're not going to be extra likely to listen to you. Tit for tat and all.

It's more work, and makes it more difficult to dissect and understand your core argument. Notwithstanding any language barriers. But it also means you're disparaging your interlocutors. If someone is yelling at you, calling you stupid among an assortment of other monikers, are you going to be more or less likely to listen to them? Consider that you've blocked 3 other people over this sort of thing. Maybe, from a logical standpoint, that sort of thing shouldn't matter. We should just be ignoring all that rhetoric and getting to the meat and potatoes of the issue. But from a pragmatic one, it does matter. There's a saying, "you attract more bees with honey than with vinegar". If you're wanting to reach people, you gotta extend the olive branch, not try to hit them over the head with it.

Remember that my initial point was that people give reasons, which leads to certain caps on where nerfing goes. DE doesn't necessarily agree with all of those. And they may have caveats as well. Reasons can be very complicated, after all. For example, take the reason I mentioned about AoE being overwhelming in a squad. That only become the case with AoE of sufficient size, damage, and ready availability. Something like the Laetum doesn't have the size; the Cedo the damage; the Mausolon the ready availability of its big boom. Necramechs themselves are limited to certain missions. And that's if DE agrees with that reason. There's many other reasons, plural, and many other caveats, to consider in the broad scheme. theyre making aoe more conditional , yes i know that but making it so that for example it affects only 4 units at a time is overkill , like you just said this has to have a lot of careful consideration in it instead of 'NERF EVERY AOE IT DISRUUUUPPZZZZ ' because believe it or not there is a group of fringe but locally decentrilized mob in here that defends all nerfs to this game without giving it any caveats or giving calls for compensatation buffs , they are really be there trust me , its not just an imagination , theres a reason why most people outside this forum tends to not lay comments on this site becasue we have a mob situation here , the nerf mob , as ridiculous as it sounds yes they are here 7 hours ago, Tyreaus said: As I said, the buffing side only goes so far in certain instances. Something like QOL of single-target weapons would be part of a more comprehensive solution. Take the recent Wukong changes: better damage on his 4 and the return of the range extension are, for our intents and purposes, QOL-like. But that alone doesn't fix anything; it's part of a package. That packaging also happens when calling for buffs. It might be QOL to ask for some fixes to pet AI. It gets a bit more than just QOL when you add in survivability, thirteen new mods, extra skins, etc. That can mean people are pushing for QOL changes - like this - but they're grouped together into something bigger. Tyreasus , i dont know your point here , i mean sure maybe in some cases threads may give into some better calls for qol changes but you know thats not the case 95% of the time. Generaly what gets attention is either too much buffs or nerfs with no systematic changes or systematic change suggestions or similar of that sort. and i wish people were to see what betterment for thegame instead of hyper focusing on this one new thing that ' disrupts' , to ask the question why you think it disrupts ? maybe its because they are limited ways to make some random weapon work in high levels in this game , maybe not everything is wukong , wisp or mesa , maybe there are 10 readily available warframes that need some love . for my small point yes i didnt meant to write wukong in one those endgame endurance frames but in the sense that he is useful for completing tedious missions and titania is along there too , not that they can rival octavia or ash in surviability or dps in high levels , but that theyre at their own superiority in terms of being capable in regular chart , to go mission faster etc. in misions where repetition is the game not numbers. and before even it being adressed ; yes i know anything can ' work ' in lvl 9999 as long as you have a weapon that is min maxed to hell and you can reliably shield gate along with rolling guard , first it didnt use to be that way , second you are still min maxing your weapon for that matter so .. not every weapon can reach that stage even if you were to force it , but then again the sample person would say ' oh but the balance isnt determined by 9999 levels ' okay but what it is based on then ? fissure missions ? i guess if someones only concern is completing or chilling in fissure missions with randoms that just wanna get the reward and get out , and you want other randoms to forcefully sit you 15 minutes straight because you want to .. ?? i suppose thats its own problem , you can chill with your friends with single target but most people just wanna open those relics soz you know . yes i know im speaking to a ghost right now but those are the talking points so and i m adressing them before they even throw that at me also just because one guy makes lvl 9999 easy with banshee doesnt mean most people have time , patience nor neural stamina to sit through and continoually abuse shield gate , we have people dying to 30 level eximus so , just saying some niche can happen doesnt mean that frame is 'fine' ,i gave banshee as an example even tho she has lot of utility riht now , maybe just ditch her 4th and replace it with some other usefull thing but , people are giving arguments such as ' frost is not bahhd cuz he has armor strip on 4 ' yea maybe he has that but only if you build no survivability or any utility mods on him (remeber the 8 mods limit , you dont remeber that dont you ) but just to reach a number while his snow globe isnt exactly the size you want for the mission ... frost and hyroid is not okay , just because few people can carry them with good weapons to 9999 doesnt mean they dont need reworks , and their poor position needs more attention than this knee jerk reactionary position of 'aoe is disruptive' when melee was the king for 8 years.
