Zandermanith222 Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 In my personal opinion I prefer Warframe over Spiral Knights. But I beg to ask; why try to find the superior of two completely different games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LetiunantFeron Posted August 9, 2015 Author Share Posted August 9, 2015 Not trying to find supperiority, but peoples thoughts on which game for them was a upgrade from the rival, understand :P? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyborg-Rox Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 (edited) A LOT easier to get good gear in Warframe. No endlessly farming fire crystals just to level up! Combat is more varied, so many unique abilities and weapons, whereas Spiral Knights only have the 3 basic weapons, with alterations, but mostly just for damage types. And of course, Warframe is actually being updated constantly, while Spiral Knights just keeps spoonfeeding their community every once in a while with re-colored costumes you need real money to get.

Renegade343 Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 I do know one thing while playing Spiral Knights, and that is: Explosives (bombs) in Spiral Knights really pale to Warframe's explosives, if only in sheer fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHIR0B0N Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Haaaaaah. You can't compare the two honestly, they're very different. The funny thing is, I came from Spiral Knights, because their cardboard servers and immeeeeeense grind was unbearable. (Yes the grind is much worse in SK). I came to Warframe, stuck around for 8 months before getting a bit bored, went back to SK a few days, then went immediately back to Warframe until now. I would still play SK, had the grind not been so freaking huge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceDragonofAmber Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 I'll say that Lech Kril didn't give me PTSD like the Romulus Twins, so that's something. One thing I will say that Spiral knights has over Warframe are those rare enemies you will occasionally find while traversing the clockworks, like the "Love Puppy", which shoots you with hearts instead of the normal damage pellets. Maybe Warframe can add the same, like a malfunctioning MOA that can spawn and assist you at random. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And ends up getting murdered by some other player when the rest of us want to keep it for healing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny you should say that, because I find the Roarmulus Twins to be one of the most interesting and most fun boss fights ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trailgamer5 Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 And ends up getting murdered by some other player when the rest of us want to keep it for healing.(sigh) always happens man... also the bosses in SK are a lot harder. Especially with the lack of healing abilities and the small amount of health one has. Also the boss apecific mechanics are sometimes difficult to pull off, if not annoying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should try that with the US Spiral Knights and playing in Asia. The lag is real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renegade343 Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 I played on SK Europe while being in Europe and the lag was still real. Is it now? I thought it would be better given the closer physical distance, because with US/Europe Spiral Knights and Asia, everything takes about a second or two to update, and forget about PVP.

Renegade343 Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Like I said earlier, cardboard servers. True, although I did though seriously that the cardboard servers would be more like solid cardboard closer to the server location, and extremely wet cardboard farther away from the server.

Heh, nice analogy. Nonetheless, Three Rings could have had something going there, but they ruined it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade343 Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Nonetheless, Three Rings could have had something going there, but they ruined it now. I suppose the removal of the 100 free energy per day system was the last best thing they did. Fire crystals are maddening, if only because the other options (those less than 100% chance) for levelling up weapons feels like 0% chance.

That and, try to alchemize a 5* weapon. That's one of the main reasons I stopped too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyborg-Rox Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 I ended up getting a bunch of 5-star gear, basically 3 full sets for each damage type. Even managed to do a shadow lair and get the Snarbolax armor. After that, the notorious lack of content, and my introduction to Warframe, made me quit. I still check in once in a while to see if there's any new content though. Apart from re-colored costumes -_- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade343 Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Likewise xD Then again, I kind of hope it does not. At the very least, I can feel less guilty about it, since it would be gone.

Apart from that, it is just recoloured everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
