Here are your problems:
1. Going solo
2. On a boss
3. With Mag
4. Without revives

5. Diving into the boss arena

i've been doing this before, maybe i just caught twice so i was pissed

sorry

Soloing a boss tends to be harder than going with a group. Mag isn't exactly ideal for that too. And going in without any revives? You were absolutely asking for it. Should have gone with a frame that allows invulnerability or that immobilizes the boss. Vauban, Loki, Ash, Rhino. Mag has no such skill. And 50 armor isn't exactly great, even with high shields.

Ok so the OPs described situation is not ideal. I dare say that's a detail not the main point.

 

We should be able to toggle off the boss cinematic. First time sure whatever. Every other time after that it serves no purpose other than to break the flow of combat at the very least. I find this to be detrimental even in a group. You still get face shoved into an animation, right in the middle of combat !?!

 

Seriously Devs, no disrespect but who thought that was a good idea? Have the cinematic at the start of the mission if you really want one in there, but do not stop game play in the heat of battle just to show me a quick little movie of the boss I am about to meet. It totally breaks the flow, it is 100% bad terrible timing. At the very least allow us to toggle off these cinematics if not move them entirely to some other place in the game that is not in the middle of a fight.

 

I don't know how this happened. This is such a basic design flaw. You don't freeze the flow for the player unless it is completely unavoidable, and if it really is unavoidable you probably need to re work something. But the kicker is, these boss cut scenes are not even critical to the game, it just breaks the flow. I could see it if it was a random boss or if the cinematic revealed a mechanic in the fight or what drops the boss had in his pocket, but no these scenes show us nothing but the boss trying to look mean.

 

It is not worth it in the middle of combat! Don't break the flow. I don't want movies in the middle of comabt.

By all means, if cinemas can toggled off, then they should be able to be toggled permanently on.

[TheHeraldXII]

I completely agree, either that or have it so the cinematic doesn't appear while there are enemies around.

[EirikAura]

Yes, I hate this. I do try not to look at him but sometimes you can't avoid it if you have a mob attacking - a tenno has to aim, right? Give us the option to kill the cutscene.

[rksk16it]

I'd like an option to disable all cinematics once and for all, until they actually fill in some lore. Its not funny watching same cinematic thousand times a day. This includes mission start cinematic, boss cinematics and mission end cinematic.

[Azraill]

Just to be a little off the wall a bit with my suggestion; I'd rather see the 'intro scene' be a video box like where the chat boxes pop up that show the footage and sound, if it also takes place 'in game' so you can see it if you get to the boss quick enough would be all the better, but even if not I think it being displayed like all the other conversations you have with the Lotus/bosses would be a more interesting solution.

I've got 2 words, 1 symbol for ya. "space + enter"

 

edit: or is it "escape + enter"? dnno, either way you can get rid of the cut scene in about 3 sec.

Gona bump this up.

BTW the game isnt paused during the cutscene, the enemies continue moving and shade often drops your cloak.

These 3 seconds are very long if your playing a squishy frame.

space + enter. takes 1 second

It makes me press space and enter for no apparent reason. Pretty annoying.

[EirikAura]

1 second in which you're under attack while unable to adequately respond. When higher level mobs can easily take down squishier frames in less time if you ain't careful. If you are unlucky enough to have a heavy near too, well...

[blackstraykitten]

1 second = (1hit*numberofenemies hitting)*enemydamage + (xhits)*bossdamage
doesnt matter if 3 or 1 second its very important to have the cutscene be disabled or the game is paused while cutscene is active

Every Boss is soloable except maybe raptor unless you use frost cause otherwise he just does damage to without even having to hit you. ( most annoying boss )

raptor is the only boss i can solo with any warframe at any level as long as i get to it at full shield-hp and equiped with my snipertron vandal + despair

maybe some other boss with better frame level + shade :D

i can do that with the raptor because there is NO CUT SCENE that endangers me with the 1 hit kill, i could easily position my self some where with one getting the first hit from him/her/it

[NitroMidgets]

It isn't just the taking damage before it allows you to react due to the scene playing but also that it has at times repositioned me so that I am facing a completely different direction when the scene ends.

 

I'd like to disable the things after the first time I see them.
