Demon-King-Lamb Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Cause well you know! The Ancients that pull you and insta sap your energy (Even through my Rhino's Iron Skin, and Nyx's Obsorb, oh and even Valkyr's Hysteria). There's nothing you can do. The infested are melee based. You have a horde of infested around you. By the time you hack away the grunt mob, the ancients have already groped and pulled you toward them(I've seen enough hentai to know where this is goin) and BOOM! No more energy. I can live with the exploders detonating at will instantly, and staggering you. But why must the Ancients pull you like tug a war? I lost a some def missions because a group of ancients pulled me back and forth like arguing sisters. I can even live with the ancients with the aura that cuts your weapon dmg to 25% or something. I'm probably the only one complaining so don't mind my venting rant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalu__Ka Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I think they provide a nice challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kratos Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) I'm no longer playing them due to the damage the drones do, effectively killing my kubrow every single time. They got her twice, and me over 10 times. Edit: I would be fine if she had a Bleedout, but until then, no more Infested for me.

Azawarau Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I just did a 20 minute survival Infested are finally putting up some type of competition VS other factions +1 DE bring more Though i can sympathize with the hooks (that arent all that difficult to dodge) bringing you into an energy sapping doom and still hold my complaints about Sentinels not being viable with most frames, rejuvenation aside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kappatalist Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 25%? It's more like 1%, I can confirm with screenies. What a joke. For now, DS Defense/Survival or ODD/ODS is just out of the question until this is fixed unfortunately. People complained about a lack of player agency, so they took even more from us. STOP COMPLAINING, WILL YOU? Quiet you, I see you on 50% of these damn threads white-knighting DE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aramanth Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I just wish kubrow were effected by health drops and Renewal because currently only blessing can heal them. There's a mod that heals your kubrow by a portion of the damage you deal with melee damage. Pack Leader, I think it's called. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoeleVeerod Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) 25%? It's more like 1%, I can confirm with screenies. I knew that Ancient Healers can give health buffs to their allies (or am I wrong?), but is that true? TBH Infested are not as easy as before now, but isn't that a good thing? We don't need a faction that is only good for cannon fodder. Then again, it might be that you guys were playing against some high level mobs.

ShelbyTrooper Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) i consider it valid, why they can remove our energy if Rhino is using Iron Skin or Nyx with Absorb? before breeding grounds event, was not like this. sorry for bad english.

CY13ERPUNK Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 i honestly cant take any threads that complain about the infested being OP srsly way back in closed beta i remember the runners that staggered you, and the toxic ancients that melted faces, then the introduction of the chargers, man they were nasty fast-foward several updates, the addition of more frames, weapons, numerous nerfs to the infested and they've been a joke faction for several updates now finally they are getting some much needed luv and now that they arent the faceroll faction anymore, the carebears come out in droves to QQ =/ KEEP THE INFESTED DANGEROUS 2014!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utarious Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I only have a problem with the weird purple aura thingies the disruptors give out that seem to make themselves and all nearby infested immune to damage powers. Other than that, no issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thingy- Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 DE get constant complaints: "The game's too hard for new players and too easy for veterans". DE try to right this by including a much better tutorial, equiping new players with a selection from differing weapons and even switch out Loki to Volt due to a Damage orientated Warframe being more straight forward than a pure Utility and Debuffed focus one. DE then proceed to make the Infested faction less easy to exploit and in general improve their effectiveness through mechanics rather than just making them meatier targets. DE continues to receive complains. Only this time "The game's too hard for veterans". There are no winners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phase02 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 The Infested are meant to be the most dangerous of all factions, and for awhile they were the weakest of all factions it is nice to see they are becoming a challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that is another healer. Feels kinda annoying though that my items have no effect. Renewal doesn't work either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm probably the only one complaining so don't mind my venting rant. HAHAHAAHAHAHA! The ancients pulling players now is one of greatest improvements ever. J-3 Golem fight all over again; It makes the infested even more terrifying now. I'm no longer playing them due to the damage the drones do, effectively killing my kubrow every single time. They got her twice, and me over 10 times. Edit: I would be fine if she had a Bleedout, but until then, no more Infested for me. Drones provide the much fun I had when Toxic Ancients still had poison clouds on death. Keep you on your feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyril1204 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I'm just mad that the Volatile Runner explosion is inconsistent between player and sentinel/kubrow, it sometimes harm the player if exploded in close range but will damage the sentinel/kubrow from very far far away (15m) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SgtFlex Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) Seriously, I love the Ancient's pull now. I obsess over a challenge, and there's no challenge like an ancient that can actually pull you down from a location where you could usually just stand there and they couldn't reach you, but now... now they can just pull you down into a horde of chargers and such and you get f***** up pretty bad, I love it! Infested were way too easy, and even when they got to a high level, just vortex all day with vauban. I can't wait for the new infested enemies to come, then there comes the real challenge! EDIT: I think the Volatile runners still need to be buffed, their stagger really only affects me if I let them, otherwise I never get staggered as long as im shooting or doing something, they're still not a threat to me.

Fire_Ashes Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Nerf the hook range and make it so they can't get you through walls. Then remove poison from mutalist ospreys or nerf the range. Still a challenge, just not rediculious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FATEdPondera Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 The only change Id make is not let toxin damage go through shields. That way, my +1000 shield pts mag prime with her polarization doesnt get instagibbed the moment green clouds start forming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoffmode Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I'm of the opposite here. Ever since all the buffs to infested, I'm really enjoying playing them a lot more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
