Warframe: 1999: Hotfix 38.0.5

[[DE]Megan]

KIM: Romance & Relationship System Changes & Fixes:

As shared in a PSA yesterday, we have added ways to better communicate when you are unable to rank up in Chemistry with a Protoframe due to being an insufficient rank in The Hex Syndicate. We’ve done so in the following ways: 

• Added lock icon and a note in Protoframes’ Profiles in the KIM: Romance & Relationship UI to indicate when you are unable to rank up in Chemistry due to being an insufficient rank in The Hex Syndicate.
  • The note reads: “I need to prove myself as a member of the Hex before I spend more time talking to them one on one”.
  • This note will not prevent players from further messaging the Protoframe while they have remaining conversation options. You will still be able to earn Chemistry while in this state.
• Once a player has exhausted ALL conversation options for their Chemistry Rank with a Protoframe, a lock icon will appear on their KIM chat, indicating what Hex Syndicate rank is needed to continue talking to them.
• 

• Note: We mentioned in the PSA that we’d also be including some kind of indicator in the Höllvania Bounty End of Mission screen. We’ll be adding this in the new year!

General KIM Changes:

• Added a “whoosh” SFX when ranking up with Protoframes. 

KIM Fixes: 

• Fixed instances where Lettie and Amir could get stuck typing forever (oof we all know the anxiety of watching someone type a response).
• Fixed being able to interact with other UI menus while the “Liked” Chemistry rank up cinematic played.  
• Fixed a typo in one of Eleanor’s responses. 
• Fixed a grammatical error in one of Quincy’s responses. 

Changes: 

• Höllvania missions that must be completed to receive the 1999 Steel Path Trophy/Emote are now marked with an “!” icon. 
  • As a refresher, earning the 1999 Steel Path Trophy and Emote requires you to complete all missions on the Normal Path before any Steel Path node completion would count towards the Steel Path Trophy. This set-up is different from other Regions, and has led to a lot of confusion from players who have completed all of the Steel Path nodes but have not received the Trophy/Emote inbox. Changing the logic requires a Code Fix, which we unfortunately could not implement before the holidays, so this is our workaround for the time being. 
  • Now, if you have NOT completed all missions on the Normal Path (and therefore cannot earn Trophy progress for the Steel Path nodes), this “!” icon should help indicate that your Steel Path progress is not being registered. With the aid of our PSA, players hopefully then know they are missing a Normal Path node that they must play for Steel Path progress to be registered. We know this is far from ideal, but we wanted to at least have some visual indication of “completion is not being registered” while we work on a better fix. 
    
• Temporarily removed the “Destroy X Scaldra Barbican Shields” Höllvania Bounty Challenge. 
  • While we reduced the requirement in yesterday’s Hotfix, we understand that the specificity of the challenge paired with several other factors (like accidentally obliterating the target before their Shield) can make it rather troublesome to complete. So we’ve temporarily removed it and will reassess it in the new year.
• Added a popup upon entering a spoiler area in The Höllvania Central Mall while you have The Angels of the Zariman Quest active that’ll give you the option to either a) Return to Orbiter (to deploy quest missions there) or b) Abort the Quest. 
  • As mentioned in Hotfix 38.0.3, starting Angels of the Zariman from this area was causing a loss of function, so we’ve added this popup in the meantime while we investigate a solution for the new year. 
• Change the name of the “Kinematic Tannoy" in the DIRECTGIFTZ Shop to “Kinematic Announce”. 

Fixes:

• Fixed Hildryn’s Balefire becoming available to use while riding the Atomicycle after she runs out of Shields.  
• Fixed Secondary Enervate (Secondary weapons Arcane) unintentionally working with Amps. 
• Fixed 1999 Calendar no longer displaying the “current” date once all events in the season have been completed. 
  • Now, it will display the last day in the month of the season once you’ve completed it. 
  • Also fixed the wrong date appearing on the desk calendar in a spoiler location. 
• Fixed the ™ tag not properly displaying on The Scooticle in the DIRECTGIFTZ Shop UI. 
• Fixed performance issues caused by the enemy spawns after opening Scaldra Caches in Höllvania Exterminate missions. 
• Fixed UI breaking when using the Arsenal Fast Travel option in the Höllvania Central Mall. 
  • To prevent these issues from occurring, switching to Operator while in the Mall has been disabled. 
• Fixed chat box in Orbiter immediately closing after sending a message. 
• Fixed a checkbox appearing in the objective UI for Höllvania Bounties that have a mission modifier instead of a challenge. 
• Fixed Faceoff music being overheard mixed with the KIM music if players have their volume slider set extremely low. 
• Fixed the Faceoff rewards missing from the Official Warframe Drop Tables site. 
• Fixed Birthday events in the 1999 Calendar not specifying a Protoframe and instead saying “The Hex” when accessing from the Höllvania Mall garage Pom-2. 
• Fixed being able to spawn H-09 Efervon Tank in the Simulacrum. 
• Fixed Koumei’s Omikuji challenge  “Kill Enemies with X Status Effect” appearing as a filepath in the UI popup. 
• Fixed multiple script errors related to entering a certain area in the Höllvania Central Mall while you have an active Quest. 
• Fixed script errors caused by Decrees with “inflict X Status Effect to also inflect another Status Effect” conditions (ex: Baneful Harmony). 
• Fixes towards crashes caused by projectiles.
• Fixes towards script error caused by the pools of Efervon released from the tanks in Höllvania. 
• Fixed more script errors caused by Void Angels impaling player during Transference. 
• Fixed script error with Gauss’ Thermal Sunder. 
• Fixed script error with Nekros’ Shadows of the Dead. 
• Fixed script error with Atomicycles.

fixed rank for cinematic + implication that AOTZ can be replayed (it cannot sorry)

[Dark_Lugia]

Thank you for the fixes and QoL updates

Please fix HDR not working correcly outside in hollvania

[Kaiga]

Dante's noctua is still upside down whenever it spawns.

Also, you LOSE unread conversations if you rank up with the hex before finishing them, shouldn't that be pointed out or retroactively fixed? 

[Newwave221]

Are Mind Control targets meant to be unhealable now? It would be nice to have that mechanic back for the Trinity synergy. I do hope it's a bug.

[Cyberdragunz]

Can we get this dealt with? Need that juicy crit damage for the big number dopamine hit.

Цитата

• Fixed being able to interact with other UI menus while the “Trusted” Chemistry rank up cinematic played.  

Wait, what? There is supposed to be chemistry rank up cinematic for "Trusted"?

[Renachii]

Fire hotfix but... Why fix a characters typo/grammar error? That just sort of seems pointless, they're people too, people make spelling errors, i think it'd be better if they stayed in, no?

I know its kind of a stupid thing to "complain" about or even point out, but it just seems unnecessary to me.

[MoonlitDeity]

Any chance you could change Venom Dose to copy energy colours? 

[Thanathros]

 

Thanks for the update!

Bold of you to assume i'll understand half of what he says anyways

[--__--__--__--__--__--__]

please let us spawn tanks again in simulacrum

[Turboameeba]

Ehh.. Yet we still have to spawn in Mall even if you we run normal star chart missions from Backroom.. Instead of spawning back in the backroom. PLEASE fix this asap. It is annoying to run back to Backroom from Mall every single time you want to launch another mission that has nothing to do with 1999 content!

[NanoSquid]

Good stuff guys. Have a Merry Christmas, see you all after New Years :)

[RogueDog12]

for some reason my rank with Arthur was reset back to neutral with kalymos too

[Beryliberries]

Thanks for the hotfix. Please continue to work on the optimization of the new tile. Myself and many others are experiencing issues detailed in this thread.
 

 

[Xaero]

Fix Arthur and Eleanor attachment color channels please! Their butts are colored alongside metal parts.

[MacIunkey]

Any ETA on the fixes for Cytes 3rd ability? none of the properties of the ability carry on past the initial duration when you extended with kills if you are not the host. Including health on WP kills, invisibility etc. I can see only the invis part is listed in known issues

[Fleetwing]

Thank you for the shield bounty fix! I normally love bonking weakpoints but it was taking way too long. ;)

[Diggww]

Not enough updates have been released yet but it's already easier to play in 1999

[(PSN)KILLAJDX]

Thank you for the steel path fix was driving me nuts did all of normal and steel path twice so far. Even more if you count all the bounties I’ve done smh. 

[Stickman949]

Hold on, Angels of the Zariman replay? Does this mean we're gonna be able to replay AOTZ in the near future? Or did I miss a patch note where it became replayable...?

[KrazyKubrowLady]

Kaithes in-mission when ;v; let me ride my honse!!!!

Yeah, he's annoying, every chat with him ends with a headache. He's only speaking gibberish anyway so I guess the next conversations with him, I'll just pick the one immediately ending it, who the hell cares

I think it's a general issue, even Bite doesn't show crit/crit damage increase anymore (at least for me !)

Just a very small cinematic where we see our drifter "connecting" with the hex member. That's like 5 seconds of non-animated models

Thank you! gotta figure out some new regex exceptions for that one huh... :/

Really threw a wrench into my scraper script with that one... y'all mind making the title conform more to the format you've been using for all other gamemode so far? Kinda sucks to have to write an exception for a single gamemode 😬
