I've been playing AW quite often lately. I particularly enjoy the Uranus Interception, that open space fighting is really fun. Not so much the Corpus head-bumping-in-narrow-passages levels.

[Romalic]

honestly, as little as i can, they are painful for so many reasons, not least of which is the snails pace that equipment and archwings gain affinity, ive never forma'd an archwing or a piece of their gear for that very reason, i was hopeful when it was released but it just doesnt work as fluidly as the main part of the game, it has the bolted on feel that makes it a chore rather than an enjoyable part of the game

[PickleMonster21]

I do it as little as I can. I haven't even finished leveling my starting Archwing gear, and I don't plan on expanding my Archwing Arsenal either.

[Sonos]

I recently leveled Itzal from 1-30 in the Venus mission looking for the gun parts.  5-10 times a day.  I still have not gotten the two parts everyone needs.

This story is not a celebration but a story of anger and deceit.  Archwing started really cool for me now it is just a grindy chore.  The lead to platinum spending is so obvious on this one.

Only if I must, The only reason I don't have the maximum mastery possible you can have when you don't have braton vandal, lato prime and one other gun I don't remember is that I hate farming archwing parts/weapons. it's more painful than trying to get any void part.

I've played archwing maybe for about 3 or 4 days just to solo the atlas quest, now that I have the atlas I don't think I'll ever play archwing other than nitain alerts that requires archwing to complete.

[Sziklamester]

I just played 2 times when finished the quest and went to farm a nitain aw alert and that was the all. I didn't like this addition and if possible I will avoid it because not my style and never liked this. 

 

This game mode was fun in the early 2000's and before when played tyrian2000 or raptor but that's more funny than the current aw in warframe.

[Zachatoo]

I used to play somewhat frequently (comparatively) but not so much recently. Now it's mostly just when I want to help other players with AW missions such as Jordas. AW really isn't a chore to me at all, it's a nice change of pace, plus the starting gear can be useful on the JV Raid with only a potato, which can't be said of MK-1 weapons.

This is my 666th post, please send help

[(PSN)PillarOfWar]

Events only.  Sometimes alerts if I didn't notice it was AW first 

[DxAdder]

If I can find a group Ill go play Interception but that so hit or miss.

Do you have a dictonary for this? This is a whole new level of lazy.

Roughly once every couple of weeks or so.  I quite like archwing, and I have one set of weapons and and the starter archwing levelled up and modded up that I can use for higher level Alerts to get goodies, but while you're levelling archwing stuff up (as I'm doing with a wing and some new weapons at the moment), it's a bit of a PITA as you're always underpowered.  We really need some more low-to-mid level Archwing content.

Nitian alerts and wen I am forced by a submersible sortie. Same deal with excavation.

[MichelPostma]

I see archwing like an Olympic sport. Only worth doing once every 4 years

[Sorkheff]

I personally like Archwing. I play any alert with a reward I'd even passing like.

I run Balor Fomorian hard when it comes up.

I putter around in the low level MD and Exterminate missions, because they're enjoyable.

And I run Caelus from time to time. Usually solo.

I also occasionally carry people who ask for help with the Jordas Golem.

I'd say I run 1-2 AW missions every other day, or about 4 a week.

Let me enlighten you since its obvious my wittiness flew under your radar like an Archwing. hue

Melee is default keybinded to "E", melee in AW missions is superstrong and fast if you compare it to aiming shooting from your primary.

You litterally hold down shift, spacebar direct yourself with mouse and spam E to win. So back to my comment, I intentionally left out any letter with E for the joke that I broke it playing too much archwing, which is further implemented (but granted, hinted at) in my spoiler.

[afvillegas]

Almost never.

I enjoy them though,  I like a lot the Corpus spaceship tileset.

[(XBOX)TheLegend 64312]

Only when something new comes out and I have to dedicate the next month or two to farming the ridiculously low drop rate items and about another month to level them. Other than that I avoid it because it's So. Damn. Slow. 

[teefang]

I like archwing very much. But there's not a whole lot of content. There's one really fun mission (interception), a few somewhat fun missions (sabotage, mobile defenses, Jordas, fomorian) and then the rest.

There's not much in the way of interesting drops, getting the mods is hard (3D+large distances means they get lost easily even if they drop), some of the reward tables are more crowded than T3Surv, bringing in momentum was awful for the corpus duct crawls... Archwing could really use some more love.

Bring in bigger enemies with destroyable parts, environments more conductive to the speeds at which archwings move, some easier way of collecting drops, better reward tables, more rewards that would be useful outside archwing or more progress in archwing you could put those resources into...

[(PSN)gamerpie12]

Off and on, sometimes I just get an urge to play it or to farm those few parts I'm missing for the weapons.  But if I'm farming I usually quit pretty quickly(about 2-3 days), the drop rates are just atrocious and I get burnt out fairly fast these days.

 

I still find it fun and like it a lot, I just can't play it all the time because one of my chief methods of "fun" in a game like this is progress, whether that means more plat in my pocket from trades, a higher rank, etc. (something that's hard enough at MR 19, but in archwing its even harder when almost all the weapons are RNG locked)

[DreadWarlock]

I play Archwing every now and then, and the only problem i have with it is that you take far too long to level up your equipment, it's reeeealy slow, i have an Itzal and an Odonata Prime to max, and so far it's been taking too long to get a single level

[Adidasprime]

Very rarely anymore. Last thing I can remember doing was helping a friend work on Atlas's quest a few weeks ago.

And the occasional Uranus spy sortie I guess.

[Plushy]

I almost forgot archwing was a thing until I saw that title.
