Remove the Infested Cyst

[(XBOX)Shodian]

Don't know why people are complaining. It doesn't look that bad.

[Sithis32]

So, Im reading this thread and honestly it's the funniest thing. Some not all of you are crying over FASHION FRAME! Pls someone correct me in the case im wrong  but fashion has zerp influence on gameplay. Its not buffing or hindering your stats it's cosmetic...get a grip. The plague is a mechanic....a bridge to something else. We can now have our own (obviously unfinished) infested pet who is wicked strong with no forma needed. 

Don't misunderstand me DE  definitely should have given us a heads up about it no question. At the very least a heads up on the last dev stream. But we have a beast of a wf now... One more thing, if you read the redtext from latest hotfix it actually goes out of the way to say they have prepared some type of solutions to be deployed fri post stream.

Seriously, major reason I play warframe is because of the visual aspect. You guys are kind of messing up for me with this giant growing cyst on my neck that then finishes with a freaking hair. I already built the thing I don't want to keep getting it on the brand new frame with the skin I just paid actual money for on tennogen. Maybe you guys are laughing but seriously from what I can tell this kind of upsetting people. Can you just create a fix a way to opt out. I will probably be taking a break and hope this is not an issue when I come back. Thanks for reading.

You must hate it when Nidus sprays you with Parasitic Link

I hope there will be a cure

[Abraxas]

Here's a constructive idea. Let's have a reusable cure blueprint from the labs. Research would require 12500 orokin cells, building the cure in the foundry would require 7500 orokin ciphers.

...Or you could buy it from the market for 340p.

 

Wadda ya say? ;)

You can't cure perfekshun.

"Fashion frame" is how this game makes money and the only thing most players have left.  The gamplay becomes mostly a joke after building Rhino.  Most of what players are working toward and/or spending their real money on is making their characters look how they want them to.  It being a mechanic doesn't make it an interesting or well thought out one.  An illness might have been interesting if it had some gameplay element.  As of now it is purely cosmetic so completely roleplay.  Roleplaying having herpes shockingly isn't something most players are very interested in doing.

I got the Helminth charger, fair enough... then i got infected again by playing with a Nidus and another cyst is growing on my Excalibur... Can it only be removed with a 1% (or dunno if it's chanced) drop chance Kubrow egg or am i missing something ?

It's really ugly to see this purple thing on my warframe neck all the time, and i would gladly just get rid of it or even "hide" it if possible (best if it can just be ripped off and stored like a resource).

Can we have an option to hide it or something so i don't have it ruining the look of my warframes anymore ?

[Xirka]

The Dev stream on Friday will have some information on the cyst.

Im not disregarding that point and Ive done the same on occasion. I admit it's definitely an eyesore but ppl are crying over it like it's some earth shattering event. Ppl are rage quitting over a cosmetic thing! The word ludicrous doesn't begin to cover it especially knowing a fix is coming

[Myscho]

Actually cyst cant be removed any way, even you drain it for charger it grows back

[-Krose]

Just wait for the devstream, and also:

I wonder how long will we Console Tenno have to wait to get this cure after we get Nidus, i want to try Nidus but i don't want that infested thing on all of my Warframes x.x

I just want a total cure and full immunity. My nidus is infected with this but my other frames still not luckily but I want them to keep safe range from the infection. I don't want to all of my 36 frames drain and make 36 helminth charger when I don't want any pet.

I don't think it's just this event that's making people ragequit.

Between all the crap that DE has pulled, I think the state that Helminth is in is just the straw that breaks the camel's back. The Kuva Fortress is an empty tileset, complete waste of resources. The Riven system was completely broken when released and is still a very awkward system that people generally don't like. The infested salvage mission had horrid Nidus drop rates when released. The Hema's clan research requirements are off the charts and a massive middle-finger to players.

And now we have Helminth. After the onslaught of rushed out content that hit live way before it should have, Helminth comes in and straight up slam-dunks the ball to the deepest layers of Tartarus. The entire mechanic is utterly unfinished, as evidenced by the fact that Helminth doesn't actually do anything except make the exact same comments over and over and over. The cyst grows in, spreads way too easily, becomes a massive eye-sore on millions of warframes, and then after seven days, we drain it to make the Helminth Charger.

And it's a F%#$ing placeholder. It's the charger's model stitched onto a Kubrow skeleton and animations and just shipped out for players to get disappointed at.

And then we find out that there's NO way to remove the cyst, that it's going to be an eyesore until DE decides to get around to fixing it.

Just like they will get around to fixing Sortie loot. Or Archwing. Or Focus. Or Operator mode. Or the Kuva Fortress. Or the Riven system.

But you know what? All those things can be forgiven. Because they don't interfere with the core game too much. They're like dead weight hanging off what is otherwise a good game. Helminth, however? That stabs inwards. That's actually interfering with the main game.

It should never have been released in the state it is now. Nidus should've been postponed until it was ready for release. They should've put the bard in first so they could get more time to actually make something of Helminth. Something more than an eyesore.

It's not just a fashion frame crash. It's DE keeling over with what is undoubtedly the worst content string ever added to warframe.

[Sziklamester]

Still need to wait hopefully they will explain it in this devstream friday.

[Mak_Gohae]

Some one has to put this on the Guinness World Record.

Most Complains over the Fashion in a Shooter Game.

[Charlitoooo]

I hope this cyst develop multi-resistance so that I'll keep infect people playing for the fashion aspect.

i got infected again

you know the cyst never left right? it'll just grow back once you drain it

[Sajochi]

I'm curious about the final stage. How much do you want to bet the impulsive players will complain that they can't get whatever the final stage has because they cured themselves? And thus the cycle will be complete.

(Honestly, word about a cure is coming. We don't need another thread about it. Maybe a mod should mega thread it.)

I actually agree with many of your points. DE needs to learn from it's previous f ups and not rush.  I don't condone many calls they made in 2016. Someone needs to redo the pr scheduling or maybe just send reb instead of the core programming staff. 

 

[CandyDragon]

The charger just feels like a game dev entry into top ten jokes of 2016 that went to far. 

[tyrannicaltyrant]

If a small spot on a characters neck in a fictional game is seriously stressing you out, that's the biggest first world problem i've ever heard in my life.

Sort your head out son.
