AdunSaveMe Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 This is painful. Is it hardcoded into the game or something? It's useless and it just causes performance issues. The only way to get rid of it is to pull out your melee weapon. DE pls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-DM-Nexriot Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 can shoot lazer through the eyes, no nightvision. Flashlight with 10 lumens its the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Lord_Gremlin Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 They literally used up all buttons on both console controllers. Some weapons are already unusable on consoles. So, no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AutoPhox Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Put the toggle in the settings or radial menu. Those that want it can keep it, the others can just leave it off. This way no buttons are wasted. I also agree that the flashlight is kinda lacking in usefulness. Can the frames have a sort of dark vision instead?

Now that would be something else, if we can confirm they actualy have eyes that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We see through whatever is inside the Warframe, so even if it's just helmet optics, night vision makes perfect sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we seeing trough the warframe or trough the operator's eyes ? I know the operator has a 3rd person view but that could be due to gameplay pourposes.

Tenno Selfie sticks I Think it would be more interesting if instead of holding a totaly impratical case we would instead have Lotus uploaded in one of the warframes and then have this warframe upload her into the system similar to how we ''harvest'' captured enemies, I think it would bring intresting challanges to the MD missions.

That would be cool if the flashlight actually worked 100% of the time, but the current flashlight will randomly not work when it should and work when it should not. So yeah either toggle (on a real grown up flashlight not the kiddie thing we have now) or night vision (also with a toggle cause the auto detect seems wonky) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stratego89 Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 It's never given me performance issues, and it's the opposite of useless IMO. I want a toggleable flashlight too- but for the exact opposite reasons that you do. I want it so that I can actually see in these pitch black areas that the game decides not to turn my flashlight on in. I personally think they should swap from a flashlight to night vision of some sort though. Not some stereotypical green-nightvision either, something else. We're space ninjas- why do we still rely on our weapons using flashlights? Flashlights take up space, stick out making stuff harder to handle, they get caught on stuff, and they add to weight. These super suits have to have some sort of darkness-compensation built in. Sure- infested missions are always going to be a lot creepier when your light is shining on that horde coming at you from the darkness, but for actual gameplay it's painful.

AnonNyx Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I thought the flashlight was gun specific? (why is it not on a Tonkor?!?!) But yes a toggle would be nice to have none the less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a change, if they are meat puppets, they probably have no meat inside, and are a biomechanical dream, with no need for eyes as it can surely sense through any kind of ambiguous methods that I don't think include looking through the helmets like with X-ray or some similar stuff. 14 minutes ago, Gildarts-bb said: Night vision please, we are super advanced space ninjas what are doing we using kids flashlights? And we can't even control those sometimes they work and sometimes they don't. As to why, I would like to remember people that the atmosphere of the game, and it's surroundings specially with infested, are supposed to be "dark" and "tragic" since, we are fighting a bunch of dead corpses moving by the will of some hive-mind creature, while at the same time walking literally on their graves, as to which I mean the ships, and maps where they all died, and where infestation kicked the f*ck out of every single trait of civilization only to leave an empty shell, that so happens to have no consistent lightning system, because all the "post-apocalyptic" sh*t usually goes by "there's no energy!" or something like that. 12 minutes ago, Henji said: I also wonder why the hell we need a case to bring Lotus to terminals if we can dematerialize captured enemies with our bare hands.. The hand thing seems to be a one way gate only, and only to ship stuff directly to the "extraction" whatever that seems to mean. My guess is, it creates a small cube (similar to the gun in Mastermind) and the only place where the cube can be re-materialized is under Lotus orders.

Skaleek Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 I think a flashlight toggle would be great. Here's how you get DE to introduce it: Monetize it. Add different types/colours of flashlights for platinum, and maybe even laser sights etc. Then, DE's making money off it so they'll want to put some effort into refining it, ie toggle keys, etc. Just a thought.
