Xianyu Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 For those that don't know, the tennocon digital tickets come with a 'tennocon relay access key' that will work during the tennocon weekend and give access to Baro, selling everything he has ever had. Everything. All of his primed mods, his weapons, his fashionframe accessories, all of it. For one weekend. Has no one else seen the gaping flaw in this yet? We get salty manlets using mommy's credit cards to DDoS the game every single time Baro comes around with something they're hoarding. Do you think the weekend that everyone is away at tennocon while Baro is selling literally everything he has ever had is going to go peachy? It's not even a question of 'if'. There will be a DDoS that weekend. The game will be unplayable. Why is it even time locked anyway? Just make the key work for a month. Nobody has the capital to #*!% with a game of this size for a month at a time. Sure, the first few days will be patchy, but after that they'll just give in to the inevitable. But come April 3rd and you've got massive DDoS and hundreds of players who want to get in on Baro's inventory (I'm one for them for christ's sake) who paid money to get in on his inventory aren't going to be able to access him. I'm no Nostradamus but I don't think this is going to go over well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltage Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 (edited) It worked last year, I don't see how 2018 is any different. The doomsday thread about a relay that won't have much issue is unnecessary and pointless. Edited March 27, 2018 by --Q--Voltage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NinthAria Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 They've extended normal Baro visits for DDoS attacks or other service outages. No reason to think they wouldn't do it if something happens during TennoCon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(PSN)FadedSpirit Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 I think it's fine as is, I'm sure if something goes wrong they will extend the time for us. I think it's a little crazy to let people access baro's whole inventory for an entire month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raspberry Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 I'm not too sure how the Relay Key purchase works, but I'm pretty sure you can only buy it with real money. Which means, if there's a non-cosmetic item from Baro that you want, you might as well directly buy it with plat. IMO it's not worth buying this key unless Baro has something untradeable that you really want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordeRicky Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 So, with my persistent boredom and a ton of help from the wiki, it'll take about 6,500 ducats and 25 million credits to get everything I need from baro, sans cosmetics, because I've never really bothered with him before. "Happy hunting, tenno!" On the note of the alleged upcoming DDoS on the special relay, you know very well DE will extend the time. They've proven to be more than sufficiently fair through everything that's happened in the history of Warframe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything Baro has is available during his normal visits as well. And, if its like last years, its only the old stuff. Nothing newer than what he has already brought. They still have to pay credits and ducats for it, so not like they are getting it for cash. Same work as before. Just getting the ability to get it all at once rather than wait for his every other week visit. So not sure what your issue is with it? Using the base price of plat, its not a bad deal. As 370p is $20. So for the ticket you get 370p, a set of armor, a sigil, some art and a pass to visit baro. A portion of which also goes to charity. So all in all, not that bad of a deal. But, not like its pay to win either. Just saves a player time if they are wanting something Baro has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually this what I quoted is my issue. I am a bit older player and I have all Baro stuff so I don't have any personal issues with it.But there is a lot of players waiting for Baro to bring something specific back and that commodity is sold to someone?I don't know...This doesn't sound any good to me.Giving players special treatment for cash is not ok at all.It wouldn't be that bad if Baro wasn't part of this game and stuff that he brings wasn't influencing progress(mods,mastery).With this logic they could also give special access to all past events and rewards.

If it were something new I could understand being bothered. But its all old items. So I don't have an issue with it. It doesn't affect other players in any way, just the ones getting the tickets. If those events and rewards were on a loop like Baro is, again wouldn't have an issue with it. As I could just bide my time and eventually get the same item if I don't have it already.
