ysmer Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 you are a f***** genius im agree with all also would like to add, killing the semi boss from enemys factions should give some bonus or stuff (maybe a lot of syndicate points) like all the others semibosses of the game.

Educated_Beast Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Completely agree with original poster and a few comments. Perhaps this is DE's way to sell boosters. I imagine they sold quite a few this way. I purchased my first booster and began grinding Viver. What else can I do, I'm MR 17 with all gear (except exclusives I missed). I have no desire to completely replay every mission with no new content and the content I enjoy (survivals, defense long term), is not rewarded as well as dedicated farming on Viver. The problems not only Viver, it's the base system. It is broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
123Olympian Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 (edited) Elytron parts becoming tradable was also "confirmed" on that same stream. You still can't trade Elytron parts, despite the alternate Archwing weapons being tradable. It's a simple fix. There's been tons of hotfixes since 15.0. And nothin are g. So don't get your hopes up too much. They often say they'll do something and then conveniently ignore it. Honestly the best option would be to wait, as they have the U15 Bug surges flowing through. Also if we keep on complaining, they might just do something, just like Nova. Edited November 12, 2014 by 123Olympian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xana_Skullsunder Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 (edited) Have you read NONE of the above posts? Don't grind for it! The only thing mindless about it is the fact that you are doing it! And you keep missing the posts stating "We have nothing else to do, we already ranked up all our frames and guns" People that keep saying that a game is "burning them out" is like people saying that they are broke because the casino took all their money. Pretty sure the problem is not cause by DE. DE made this game dependent on grind, they built their entire F2P model around it. It's entirely their fault if people get tired of it.

Krotalon Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I can't help but agree with all OP said. Syndicate system is a great start, but as for now, looking at it as a whole, it's quite... uhm, insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sekushiiandee Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 thank you for posting this. totally agree and i have been saying it many times to other players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sekushiiandee Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 (edited) 2k a day means that towards reaching rank 5, that is a total of 240k means 4 months of playing. How is that healthy? 4 months to reach rank 5, let alone buy everything else. ^ not to mention its only for ONE and only ONE syndicate (in terms of reputation cost) Grind is not content, grind is not endgame ^ its been said over and over again.....yet DE and some players refuse to listen to this Edited November 12, 2014 by sekushiiandee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's entirely their fault if people get tired of it. This may be true, but if you are one of said players you should know that affinity is not mastery. Affinity is the amount of exp earned in a mission. That affinity is used to create mastery. Mastery is the amount of levels gained on gear. Just run missions as you usually would at a high rank and you'll start to stack on syndicate standing. Since most higher mastery ranks are working on multi-forma builds for weapons for the whole 'end-game' sort of build, it should be a piece of cake to earn a decent bit of standing since you will already be farming affinity. ^ not to mention its only for ONE and only ONE syndicate Well if you read the post he was replying to, it was one of mine, you would know that I get that by running TWO syndicates' alerts a day. That's 6 alerts for standing a day. While it may be earning standing mainly for that syndicate, it earns it for their allies as well. If that doesn't already make it clear that I chose two syndicates who are allies(As most who thought about this grind have) then you may want to go re-read that post.

If that doesn't already make it clear that I chose two syndicates who are allies(As most who thought about this grind have) then you may want to go re-read that post. ^ i read your post and not entirely sure why your tone seems aggressive. anyway i was stating that the cost for 240k reputation is for ONE syndicate and ONE syndicate only....yes you can farm for two syndicates at the same time, which is nice....but it still does not discount the fact that it will take you 4 months purely on syndicate alerts -> which does not count the cost of mods or any other toys you may want to play with from the syndicate ^ill make sure to be more clear about what i am saying so that i dont bring up unnecessary aggression when DE was advertising about syndicates, they said that yes you can go back and forth to different syndicates and be able to gain rewards from all of them.....my issue is that if it takes 3-4 months of syndicate specific alerts and random gameplay in order to raise reputation for 1-2 syndicates.....trying to gain the reward specific mods from the other syndicates would end up taking 4-5 months because of the extra reputation farming that would be required -> this also runs into the problem of farming to counter negative reputation...it is actually a lot worse because you do not have those missions to help out reputation....all you have is pure grinding Edited November 12, 2014 by sekushiiandee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
