(XBOX)EntrTheLight Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Hello, so I have a couple of questions. I don't always have wifi, and when I don't, I seem to be unable to play warframe at all... period. I thought this was due to gameshare, but I had issues even without game share... so I'm confused... it seems I've played warframe offline before, but cant remember how. Is this a bug/problem or is it designed this way? and could it be fixed or changed so I can play offline? Second question is split screen capabilities. Could this be added please? My xbox gold expired and I'm struggling with a sortie but can't afford membership for help. If I had split screen I could ask my brother to assist me... as it would also give us something to play together. Either that or make riven mods available on other targets such as in the void (containers, rewards, drops, caches etc). [That's really all i'm looking to collect. Trying to see what I can get] Either way these are my suggestions/questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)jFresh215 Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 WF is online only, I don't think you have ever played offline. As far as split screen goes, I don't think it's something we will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
--F--NerevarCM Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Can you login on two Xbox accounts at the same time on the same console? If not, forget split-screen And you can't play offline, it was never a option. At the end of the mission, your client still need to send all the information to DE servers, and this requires internet conection. So, forget Offline mode.

If not, forget split-screen Xbox consoles support multiple accounts logged in at once, and some titles support split screen play. Warframe is a horde shooter, however, and split screen is an unrivaled resource hog, since the GPU needs to completely render a second PoV, effectively doubling the amount of work it needs to do per frame.

(XBOX)EntrTheLight Posted September 27, 2017 Author Share Posted September 27, 2017 ahh... I must have just not had xbox gold then. Either way, offline play would be nice to have. Just have a offline log and update data when internet is achieved. Actually, I think you can have two on at same time. Yes, I just checked, two accounts can be logged in at same time. So why can't split screen be implemented? Would be a good feature to have, especially to those who lack membership... like me. Which I guess on reason PC trumps over game consoles as no membership seems to be required. I am actually on PC as well, but all that time I spent getting to where I am seems lost now.

But kudo to them if they find a way to do it... would be really helpful... especially with sorties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doing it in a way that doesn't cause your console to explode and burn your house down is a different matter entirely. Games consoles aren't exactly overflowing with system resources, and dropped frames in some titles are a fact of life (*cough*Destiny*cough*), even with out split screen adding on to the woes. The main problem here is enemy count. The highier the level gets, the more enemies we have on screen, and it's not uncommon to have to render 40+ guys in a single shot by the time you hit the Kuva Fortress. Then add 4 Warframes doing who knows what with cloth and particle physics and possible summoned minions and suddenly your console is just this side of the hardware's redline. Even dropping the resolution down from 1080 to 540 may not free up enough power to make split screen work with out the frame rate becoming a slide show.
