Resting on my Nyx laurels for so long has really bitten me in the rear end.
Even though I've been playing this dumb game since day one, I've only just gotten to mastery 10. Not a huge deal, I guess but there are some syndicate stuff I can't get yet.

the syndicate stuff is, actually, a huge deal. the v. hek, sancti tigris and synoid simulor are absolutely top tier, best in the game kinds of weapons, and there are a ton of fun frame builds that don't work without syndicate mods. like firequake ember.

wait you don't even have ember at 30.

dude.

you're completely missing out on 60% of what makes this game fun. don't worry about mastery past 12, but definitely worry about mastery before 12.

Mine turned out more cat than dog after it grew up, even if the pubby looked exactly like it, I turned the breeding process around. Not sure if that's the cause or if it's just random what you get.

Having an Ember in the mission often means "no fun" for me because everything around her is dead and you have to actively keep big distance from her to actually play anything but "follow the ember".

It's based on the biggest, thinnest Kubrow I got, and the first random Kavat I received which also turned out rather thin. It's pretty much a retardo cat with a permanent stuck-out tongue and one of its legs is on the back, it also howls like a Kubrow all the time. See my earlier post for a gif of it walking around my Liset.

I know. I KNOW! I did spend a fair amount of time farming for Ember stuff but her systems did not drop in 8 runs so I got a little frustrated and quit for the day. Loki P. is going to take three days and hopefully I can knock out Ember in that time.

The good news is that you can blitz through a ton of mastery with those frames. Also, rank any sentinels or pets you haven't yet, you should be able to hit 12 in less than a week if you want.

The bad news is that draco is dead so you probably should have done this a week ago

Before leaving today, I started baking every weapon BP that wasn't using extremely rare resources. Already having grinding out all the Dark sword/dagger variants and even a Bo Mk. 1 I'm excited for some more weird stuff.
The flaying whip is neat but I'd like it a ton more with a Primed Reach.

So Steve was on Prime Time tonight instead of Megan and he said some interesting things:
  • People who got horrible monstrosity dogs/cats will be able to keep them, though a fix is inbound.
  • Steve agrees that the current void fissure system could be more varied for the fissures themselves, and doesn't have an immediate solution but wants to fix it.
  • They want to bring back the Braton Vandal and Lato Vandal, but they want to make sure they won't piss off too many of those who have them now and make sure they're in the 'right emotional place' (lmao) before they do it. Even if they do this, they will definitely never bring back Excal Prime and any of the stuff in the founder pack.
  • Someone suggested allowing players to farm traces directly by doing Void missions, which Steve liked and is going to put it on the list.
  • Corpus Techs are taller and stronger than normal Crewmen because they eat better.

Steve went into some detail about this in the stream. Rebecca first said that it would never happen, then Steve just kind of started thinking out loud about how he's come around on the issue.

Basically, when they launched those two items, they were released as a thank-you to the players from the closed beta as they moved into the open beta. At the time, though, even their whole senior team had no idea the game would be this successful - other games like it hadn't lasted but a year and a half, and that was what they were aiming for. While they thought it was fine to do an exclusive like that at the time, they didn't realize then how long the game would last, and how important mastery rank would become. He's thinking he wants to bring them back, but he wants to do a poll or something of all the players who currently have them and see if they're willing to vote to make the items accessible somehow.

Not sure how they'd conduct the vote such that it would actually filter by players who have the items, unless they do it ingame somehow. It was also pointed out that both items were introduced before the game had an inbox/mail system, so they had to 'give' them to players by making them available in the market for 1 credit - which a lot of newer and/or more confused players (and there were a shitload of very confused players at the time) never saw.

I don't think it would be quite that huge of a shitstorm. It's not like Excal Prime where it was available for a fairly long time and you had to put down actual money. Yes, a few very old players will screech and post long-winded rants, but I don't see huge numbers of players forming ranks behind them. I would think they'd likely get shouted down by the much larger army of players who are basically just thinking of mastery for the mastery throne.

Did anyone try using only dog/cat genes but ordering to incubate a cat/dog, respectively? A dog with only cat genes or viceversa.

Man, I don't get a single gently caress if newer players get access to Excalibur Prime.
I paid my money years ago, had some fun with it but there has never been a time where someone in my squad bemoaned the fact that I had it and they didn't.

In fact, completely exclusive content like that turns me off of some games. I don't want to make others feel bad when using my items. I want them to pine for it and work out how to get it for themselves. If I can help in that process, even better.

At first I hated the timed events that are such a huge part of this game. That is until I realized I was using them wrong.
Now I just do every one I can while I'm logged in and maybe use the rewards later. Holding my breath for Vauban chassis was just stupid.
