It's the same as Zanuka, just help Corpus in invasions and Vay Hek will send you a message saying you've made a mistake. They'll come after you later, I got them the brakk bros sent after me like 3 invasion missions after I got the warning and it only took like 5 invasion missions to get that warning.

Lotus freaks out and tells you to not even fight and just get to extraction, it's a lot more elaborate than just Alad making some threats before the harvester gets to you.

She even scolds you when you win. "Next time, listen to your mother Tenno."

Usual issue with those rescue alerts is people forgetting to bring the hostage with them on the elevators.

Actually getting really far ahead of him makes the game stop calculating anything regarding him so just coptering your way to extraction can be the best tactic I have found.

The clack of a light autocannon going off is just how you know everything's alright.
20 Oxium for an individual lock is absurd. It's annoying to acquire and only encourages killing more corpus, which I don't think was the intended point of these guys.

They just deployed a hotfix that fixes people getting the BP and all the parts for the Brakk from a single Three Stooges encounter :(

Also apparently there was a loot pinata bug involving meeting them in survivals where rewards would just keep popping up.

Considering you need 600 to build a Zephyr, and you get about 40 to 50 per Kappa run anyway - which also happens to be a prime xp-farming spot where it's never hard to find a team - 20 is actually pretty light. A month or two from now, everybody is going to have 1000 spare oxium lying around anyway.

One time, I did a thing.
Cyath is loving horrible for oxium. Even blowing up the world constantly with M Prime I only got ~30 oxi there.

Kappa is better, but they reduced the oxi drone spawn rates across the board so you'll get fewer per run now than you did last week.

I'm pretty bummed out about this, my luck has been terrible with the Stalker and Harvester so far. From the hotfix notes it looks like the G3 each can drop either a mod, a brakk part or a resource, right? I'm looking forward to a lot of '2 neurodes and a Natural Talent' type rewards.

Just installed and tried the game out yesterday. It's pretty fun so far. Getting into GOON was quick and easy, (My rank is JFG! Whee!) and the folks in the Goon chat channel were friendly and helpful. I didn't understand 3/4 of what they were talking about, but they were still pretty chill.

One thing though - how does the game handle player level disparity? If some level 500 friend of mine wants to party with a level 30 Goon and my level 7 rear end, what happens? Is this even possible? I remember playing Borderlands with my friend, and even being two levels apart made the bad guys way to tough for the lower leveled dude. It was enough to completely sour me on multiplayer Borderlands. Does something like that happen in Warframe?

Bosses scale to aggregate player level. Everything else is set level. If you get dragged into things far above your level, hide behind the bigger players and soak up the XP. You'll catch up in time.

Also, hit up goons once you're rank 2 for sweet mods that make life much easier.

I just joined Corpus invasion and my screen was messed up and it was very laggy. But when the mission ended there was no reward or xp window, there was an area on the screen where it said something like reputation and three types of rep I could give my squad mates. There was something like "Teamwork", "Skilled", and "Honor" with a different icon for each. I couldn't click on anything though. Has anyone seen this before?

So I took a hiatus shortly before whatever update added Nova so I've got a bit of catching up to do.

I'm seeing a lot of specific builds showing up for frames now and I've got a question to those who are deep into Warframe; I tend to just play with whatever weapon/frame I think is fun and looks cool and don't really have any desire to do much min/maxing. Am I going to end up getting my rear end handed to me if I don't change my playstyle?
I've got a decent amount of level 30 potatoed Frames and Gear, and most of my mods are around the 6-8 rank (except for my rares, gotta start building those up). What should I be focusing on to keep pace without over complicating things?

More or less any gun and frame is decent if you potato it and get it to 30. Nova is currently the most capable of killing entire rooms with one ability cast and all but seriously any frame is good.

There's a lot of new stuff so just focus on dicking around with the new weapons and frames. If damage 2.0 wasn't around when you played last be sure to read up on that, I don't know if it was added before or after Nova.

Also build a Carrier and become the laziest Tenno.

It's worth buying a sentinel since you get a ton of slots and with the carrier you get one of the best sentinel weapon.

Well, it comes with two potatoes (one on the Carrier, one on the Sweeper) and two Sentinel Slots (which you'll probably never use, but if you end up buying every sentinel for mastery and can't bear to sell any of them I guess...), so it's not that bad a deal...

Almost all of them do, at least among their non-robotic units (most Corpus enemy types are drones or MOAs).

Grineer: Lancers (as well as Commanders and Hellions) use the Grakata, Elite Lancers use the Hind, Eviscerators use the Miter, Troopers use the Sobek, Scorches use the Ignis, Heavy Gunners use the Gorgon, Seekers use the Kraken, Shield Lancers use the Viper, Scorpions use the Machete, Powerfists use the Furax, Ballista use the Vulkar, Butchers use Cleavers, and Bombards use an Ogris (albeit a homing variant).

Corpus: Crewmen use the Dera or Detron, Elite Crewmen use the Flux Rifle, Snipers use the Lanka, Prod Crewmen use the Prova, and Techs use the Supra.

It'd be nice to see more enemy types, though.
I just noticed today that Elite Frontier Lancers use Karaks as well.
