Does It Worth To Come Back Tenno? [A Vet's Call]

[Phoenix86]

Good morning Tennos...

 

I've been in cryosleep since 15th April after being seriously injured by the boredom of farming over and over and over...

Some of you may know me or remember me since i've been here posting for a long time.

 

And now i'm here asking to you one simple question: Does it worth to come back?

 

I've quitted right upon U13 opening so i know about melee 2.0, Hydroid, Loki Prime... and i've read Devstream 31's recap

 

I think it may be the time to wake up... once again... Tenno

 

So tell... does it worth it?

Play casually. A few hours per week at the most. Mix it up with other games. There's still a steam sale going on and Gabe wants your wallet.

dont sleep too long fellow Tenno...you may wake to a gigantic Kubrow dry humping you.

Oh god why... If I caught it doing that I might put it in the blender

The beauty of F2P games, is that you can come back in anytime and try it for yourself and decide from there. Kinda silly asking other people's opinions when you might enjoy something that others don't, really.

 

So give it a shot, and if it doesn't work out, at least you can say you tried, right?

Its the same old game with no content at all. Even new content is re released old one. It is up to you come back or not come back.

[MegaSnail]

Not really.

I suggest you let someone carry you through the event to get the mods and the Prova. Then come back on U15 or the next event.

So tell... does it worth it?

 

If the game bored you before, it's going to bore you again.

 

Use the time saved to brush up on English grammar.

*IS it worth it

IS! IS!!!

[BizarreFetalChimpanzee]

Ultimately, it is up to your own discretion as to whether or not it is worthwhile to start playing again.

 

With that said, now to my own opinion, unless you have any care whatsoever for the event items, then no, it is currently not worth coming back to.

as always, more shiny things, more hype, but the game was not reworked, you can still use the most powerful weapons in the game at rank 2, and the tiering is as bad, maybe more, than before.

some wepons don't fit with their playstyle ( torid, lanka...)

 

EDIT: moar grind, moar moar moar

- Fixed players making temporary visits for events/exclusives by improving player retention factors.

 

it's called making a good game, jeez. the moment you start thinking in these terms like "whales", "player retention" and "avoiding/minimizing player backlash" that's not anymore what you're doing, not your primary concern by a long shot.

Only a two month or so break? I doubt there is much new to look into, if you were happy then. When I break, I take about 6 months, and then have a lot to catch up on (and more reason to play). I don't feel this is a game that can keep you playing every day for months on end, it's not WoW/EQ. I find it strange people play and grind this much in an action game. I think one reason I still like this game so much, is I don't burn out on it, I treat it like an action game with some RPG elements.

 

Hop on and play when you feel the itch to play, it's only "worth playing" for you, if you hop in a match and have fun. If you are asking if it's worth playing because you want to grind 50 hours for some new object, well...to me, that's always a "no".

they might need to make a kubrow water bottle sprayer for training. we can make in the foundry, im guessing it will need the following materials. 12 argon crystals, 1200 oxium, 6000 plastids, 1 nano spore, and 1 alloy plate.

[Fretless]

The new mission type was interesting, but I pretty much got my fill of it during the event.

 

Otherwise no, no reason to come back.  I'm going through my backlog of games on Steam, it's a good time to be doing that.

Wait til U14 bro

Return when you find games fun. There is no end-all be-all of player retention beyond what a person finds fun. If it is no longer fun, there is no point in stopping by and asking without trying it for yourself.

I'm also a veteran that are bored with Warframe, but there's all this new stuff going on, so I developed a solution : 

1. Wake up from your Cyro Sleep

2. Look at what's going on :

- Event -> Get the reward (usually it's not really hard)

- New weapon (non-prime) -> Check if it's good or not, or does it suit your taste. If yes, go and get it, play at least once a day to get it to rank 30.

- New Warframe -> check if it suit your taste and if it's easy to get. If it fulfill both criteria, get it, play at least once a day to get it to rank 30

- New stuff (prime) -> Check drop table. If it's really hard to get, ditch it. Usually prime is not that different to the normal counterpart, so sometimes you're better off with the normal stuff

3. If all parts of step 2 is fulfilled, go back to cyro sleep
 

If you're really bored though, sometimes it's a good idea to go for some thing different than just shoot stuff and get stuff. Go solo (usually you can't do this with someone) and look at the scenery and explore (Earth's Forest, Corpus Gas City, Corpus Outpost, Grineer's Phobos settlement, and Grineer Shipyard is nice to look at. The details are amazing sometimes. They're my personal favorite atm). Go and build more rooms in your Dojo, decorate it with you want, or if you don't have the resources, just ask someone to take them to their dojo. Usually, a nicely decorated one are really amazing. There's also the PvP part of Warframe a.k.a. Conclave. They're a nice change of pace, and the arena is nice. Since the Tenno are very agile, don't compare this to your usual FPS/TPS game. Every part of the map, including the towers and excluding the cliffs, can be traversed and used as a vantage point. Warframe's ability, while not really balanced, also makes it interesting to do PvP. Try being being the one doing the attacking when meeting a Rhino with Iron Skin or being the one searching around when your enemy is Ash/Loki. Dojo's Duel Room can also be pimped with decorations to provide more variation (Using Wooden Totem is my favorite, since they're tall enough to be planted right at the floor. Other decoration will just float when put in the battle ground of a duel room)
