How To Make The Game Harder Without It Being Unfair To New Players

[Bakercompany86]

When I made the ME3 comparison, I was talking more about scaling enemy AI that made enemies harder as you got into later missions, instead of just tacking on more health, armor and damage.

I would like to see this implemented.  I'd like to see general AI improvements all around.  Most enemies behave well. Some do not, such as escort NPC's.

 

But as far as your suggestion about scaling AI intelligence, you have my complete support.  I think that form of increasing difficulty is far superior to just bumping up stats.

Agree on all points. Armor scaling is pretty disheartening, and the AI is atrocious.

I totally agree. Warframe one of my favorite games, the concept of space ninjas just sounds awesome, but this game has some serious design flaws which could potentially lose me and many others if not fixed soon. One of the biggest flaws in my opinion is the enemy UI, every single one of them. Even the so called "advanced" units, are incredibly stupid. Both the bosses and the regular enemy's are just stupid, all of them are aim bots who just stand there shooting regardless if your shooting back, they all need to have more purpose for example: to get out of a tough situtation light grineer/corpus would have a special move such as a evasive role and when paired with a shield lancer, the regular units would actually use for cover, or when you go invisible they take a defensive formation , my main point is the enemy should have some sort of strategy instead of standing one place and shooting you.

Another big problem in my opinion is the lack of story, the whole game just becomes you becoming the Lotus's slave and doing whatever the hell she wants. It would be cool to have a story going on.

The biggest problem for me is the lack of challenge once you reach the end of the game there is no point other then farming whenever I see a update with new weapons all I see is new stuff to farm with I mean what's the point, I mean lots of people, me included just resort to going on xini and trying to get to high wave levels and trying to get more weapons to rank up and what do you do when you get those weapons, you farm with them so you can get more weapons and eventually none of the missions seem challenging at all. Warframe just lacks endgame content, it needs more levels to play. I mean it would be cool if you could go to whole other solar systems filled with new hard challenges and all the map tiles would look different from the old ones new harder enemies. That would all be very very cool.

But you also have to take into account that this game is still in beta and the fact that the game has this much content already makes me hopeful that they will make these changes soon.
