Coldbird posted:The default minigun shown in the Archwing mode (Imperator?) actually seems to be objectively terrible; it's basically a space Supra, with all the downsides++. Without parallax or environment to judge the ultra-slow projectiles against, the player was clearly having a very difficult time hitting moving targets I'd reserve judgement until players can get ahold of it themselves. The dev had absolutely no concept of leading the target.

Architect, patriarch, monarch. That's the "arch" that they're using. Not the arch that means a curved structure, but the arch that means prime/chief. It's pronounced like "arc".

Man, this game really runs the gamut on crafting bullshit, huh? There's the thing that's really rare that you need for everything, there's the thing that's rare but consistently found that you need hundreds of, AND there's the thing that's pretty rare but only lasts 24 hours. I've been getting Orokin Cells pretty much when I most need them, but I did half a dozen towers tonight and never found that one stupid piece of Argon I need. Now the other one will decay tomorrow and I'll have to dig up two at once.Whose dumbass idea was that, anyway?

I'm not even gonna touch the hilarious bullshit that is the mechanic. I am, however, going to address the incredibly stupid loving concept of an argon crystal. Argon freezes at about -190 degrees Celsius. Want it to be a crystal? You're looking at -270, if these homework help questions can be believed. Then we have the issue of the radioactive argon, which, while possible, is less than a percent of total argon. "Cool, it's rare ingame too!", one might be tempeted to think. Its half-life is in the billions of years gently caress off warframe this is the dumbest mechanic youve introduced by far gently caress off gently caress off fuckoff

"Void based radioactive resource that decays every day it is out of the void." Void can do all sorts of bullshit already, crystallizing argon isn't really out there.

Man the Kronen are pretty cool but I have to wonder if the stance stuff and combos are even really worthwhile. Like it's fancy to do some sort of leaping spinning attack thing but if I'm not killing an enemy in one hit then surely I'm just going to want to stab said enemy as rapidly as possible right?

a cat on an apple posted:Man the Kronen are pretty cool but I have to wonder if the stance stuff and combos are even really worthwhile. Some of the stances have really high-damage moves, and a lot of them are as easy to trigger as holding the back button while you melee attack, or holding block while you spam attack. They can be good for crowds, too - many stances include moves that have reach.

Well, getting the Catalyst blueprint with a 10 year old laptop was fun. Had to set everything as low as possible, run the game on an 800x600 window, minimize it and hope the other players would complete the mission. Otherwise it would crash 2 minutes in.

For those of you with a similar hatred of jaggies, I found the compatibility bits for antialiasing. Only works in DX9, but apart from the tessellation, I didn't notice a difference except no jaggies with just 4xSGSSAA. 16x OGSGSSAA looks nuts http://www.forum-3dcenter.org/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=490867 0x004000C1 timg does these images no justice: http://abload.de/img/warframe8xsgssaa0x004j5u19.png http://abload.de/img/warframe16xogsgssaa0x9juip.png

It's been so long since I had to know anything about anti-aliasing other than 'either smaa or nothing' that I had to google those acronyms. Personally, it's the increased texture quality/detail visibility that makes supersampling worth using for me, the jaggies are pretty trivial. Also, I noticed that you're getting about 38 fps just standing in a loving hallway with your heaviest AA on. I'm happy with the new native SMAA option they added. If anyone is still using the utterly awful FXAA, I encourage you to try the SMAA setting, it's better by miles.

The other day I got a couple argon to build the last few things I needed and ended up with 4 extra. Then the multiplication glitch hit me, and I had 16 crystals and nothing to do with them but watch them decay.

I think it would have been nice if Argon Crystals decaying were actually mentioned somewhere reasonable rather than obfuscated, but that might be expecting a bit too much.

Can the experience radius info and the enemy spawn mechanics info be put in the op? I've been seeing more people playing hallway hero in defense and mobdef missions lately. Enemies can't spawn where you can see them, so the further away from the pod/console/whatever you go, the further away they have to spawn so you get less enemies over a longer period of time.

I'm amazed at how easy it is in this game to overcharge and underpay for poo poo with simple "better offer in another window, can you beat it?" tactics. I've been hitting around 200% value on my trades using this "oldest trick in the book" tactic.

I'm actually fine with the exp radius. If it weren't there and you get exp regardless of where you are in the map, most PUG games would be some guy wondering why he hasn't seen a single teammate when his roster is full because they're somewhere hiding and AFK. People already do this for invasion missions and some alert missions.

Two questions: A) Lets say I'm building a Soma. So far the mod layout I've got in mind is Serration/Split Chamber/Infected Clip/Stormbringer/Point Strike/Vital Sense/Shred. For that last slot, would you recommend Hammer Shot or Critical Delay? Or a more dramatic overhaul altogether? B) Nikana stances. Would anyone have any impressions on which is better between Tranquil Cleave and Decisive Judgement? They're both rare and expensive enough in plat that I don't want to buy the wrong one.

Hammer Shot is better than Critical Delay, but last time I checked, even it is very slightly worse than slotting another elemental damage mod. Not by a lot, though. You can slot Hammer Shot and forget about it, or mix it up depending on which faction you're fighting, it's personal preference.
