Variou Issues Spawned By U15.

[Mammary]

  Since U15 I have been having nothing but problems with warframe. Things I have seen others struggling with as well.

I would like to make a special note that none of the following issues happened BEFORE U15. Only after.

 

U15 gave me the following issues.

 

  When I launch the game I get a black screen that last about 2-4 minutes before the games loading screen comes up and I am able to log in. This did not happen before the update.

 

When I play the game there is a 50/50 chance that I will get a message saying I was unable to connect to the games host. Sometimes i must try to connect 2-3 times to a game before it will let me play with a friend. This did not happen before the update.

 

  When I am lucky enough to get into a game my computers internet connection constantly disconnects or is set to "Limited Connectivity" which is the same as having none at all. This did not happen before U15 and I damn well know its not my computer. I am a person who is on their computer all day long and never do I lost my connection except for when I play warframe. None of this happened before the update. Its maddening to play an hour or two trying to accomplish something within the game only to have it kill your connection and set you back to square 1. This has happened to me multiple times and I damn well know I'm not the only one.

    My modem is not effected when I am disconnected it works perfectly fine. This problem presist computer side. Still only happens when playing Warframe.

 

  When I play Warframe I sometimes get bouts of lowered FPS. For the first time I had to go into the games settings to lower graphic options. This did not happen before U15. Wasn't there something in this update about trying to improve such things?

 

  I understand there its a big update and already there are some hotfixes for various thigns. I was content to wait and look around for solutions to some problems (for which there are few.) The game however is starting to become unplayable for me however. Mainly due to the issue of it disconnecting my computers internet. I've lost many many rare resources, alerts only items, and the time I invested into this game.

 

  I am a person who wil happily say "shutup and take my money" I've given it before and planned to do so again. After all these errors however I am kinda on the edge of "Do I really want to bother with this now?"

 

Welp that is my complaint/various bug & issue report.

What are your system specs? Just curious.

There is an option in the options menu (dah ) that says "analyze network " if everything is working fine the answer should say " all systems nominal " , if you get anything other than that :open advanced firewall options (from control panel)  and check for a rule that should says "Warframe " it should have the steam folder direction next to it and be set to "open "OR have two sets of open ports (  3960 and 3962 the ones used by Warframe ) to connect 

 

if it isn't there try following the steps on the connectivity issues guide found in the support tab ( bottom of this page ) 

 

hope it helps

Everything is working fine, i get the ok every time. I've switched through every port, restarted and analyzed those as well, all ok. Still kills ma connection.

 

The solution you just posted is to the old issue people got where they would get an error saying the UDP ports were not working. 90% of the time the firewall and ports of the player were not the issue. Look it up and you'll see that many people did everyhting they could. The issue was not resolved untill DE did something to fix it on their end. Sometimes the a modem restart would fix things but not always.

most of the problems i have that you described was caused by my doings

black screen - multiple programs in background

unable to join host - reduced bandwidth of connectivity (downloading stuff)

 

connection constantly disconnects or is set to "Limited Connectivity" - is no way in hell caused by WF, its caused by your Internet provider

 

as for now i suggest to " verify " or " optimize" you game files with your launcher

 

and update your drives

When I go through a host migration, I am glad that it no longer ends the mission without rewards or xp. However, I do end up wielding the Archwing default sword, which is rather strange. I also sometimes after a host migration during an excavation mission cannot pick up the energy cells, making me somewhat useless.

If my drivers were an issue then I would have had these problems long long before U15 hit. Try again smartass.

 

if we count for egz nvidia g-cards they released two sets of drivers 3 days after u15 hit ...

Is this a new computer? Not by any means. This doens't change the fact that a smooth game suddenly went to hell in the course of 1 big update. I've played for a long time and there have been many issues and "big updates" but never has a changed spaend so many bad things.
