the only fun about raids is watching people who never ran them melt down about them disappearing

Just started this game after a friend praised to to the skies.

It's...really good. Don't think I ever felt so fluid and powerful moving around, jump-dashing and wall-running and slashing-shooting everything in sight.

A bit lost on what relics and stuff does what, though. In-game tutorials are....not helpful, when not fully absent. You end up pickiong a lot of weird items that feel unique but have no immediate use.

Also, gently caress spy missions. Instant failure because I have no memorized every layout and one of those filthy radar droids that you can't stealth-kill spotted me while I tried to find a way inside the comp room? Give me a break.

PS- The Latus pistol is awful, too. Any suggestions for a good side-weapon?
I like this game and have played it an awful lot since November. What it doesn't do is tell you almost anything about anything, which is super daunting and makes you feel loving stupid. Hopefully they can smooth this out over the next few patches (years?).

I can say, without a doubt, this game is better with people. Clearing the star chart is a rough ride solo, so I'd suggest trying to get public matches as often as you can -- don't be afraid to join some randos in murdering everything in sight.

Once you start getting a handle on mechanics (or are a stupid motherfucking drunk like myself and spend way too much on in game currency) everything starts falling into place...only to be replaced by other incomprehensible mechanics later on.

My advice: just shoot loving everything, always. Get a Soma or Hek (buy their blueprint off the market, which took me like two weeks to understand how to do) and start murdering things. Let other people murder things for you. Murder. Just murder all the time. The rest of the mechanics will work themselves out as you continue to play. Hopefully the core game of "Spinning-Idiot-Shootman-Spaceninja" is enough to keep you playing and eventually learning more about the game.

Sorry to cut into beam chat, but I just got started on PS4 and have noticed how many of the weapons I want are either dojo research or plat only.

So it looks like I need to join a guild, but the problem is i'm horribly antisocial and like casual PUG play and dropping the other players the minute I hit orbit.

Am I going to be able to mooch off the PS4 goon dojo's research or do I need to contribute? Have I yet again* chosen a bad game to get hooked by if I don't like voice chat?

* I'm trying Warframe because Destiny 2's "raid or gently caress off" endgame got old quickly.
nah, I've been running around like a silent idiot, you'll be fine

The concept of a boss rush game mode is an interesting one, but the stupid time gate on the Eidolon run is poorly designed and incompatible with the casual pick-up game nature of everything else in Warframe. It should be a trio of bosses that you can participate in once a day, at any time, just like sorties.
This is the answer, right here. PoE really does feel like "Developers First Open-World" so I can cut them some slack (some, not a lot), but they should changed it to this months and months ago.

much like 60% of the improvements I've witnessed over the last few years

although I do like whining privately about something only to realize DE has already slated it to get fixed

and then they release poo poo like the loving vox Solaris grind and I wonder who the gently caress thought that up

yes, please let me relieve the awesome story beats for the thousandth time because I need to hear about the 3 directors and what they did over and over and over and over and over and over

The current viable aw weapons are in order of effectiveness: Cyngas, Phaedra, Imperator. I dont like the feel of the Cyngas so I've been using the Phaedra. Its higher status chance makes it hit harder than my ImpV even though the latter has 4 forma in it and the Phaedra has 0.

I feel like they need to shrink the archwings another 50% or so when you're outside the railjack

everything feels a little too small, especially the railjack itself when compared to the drydock version

the endless bugs (on PS4) have pretty much stopped me from jacking it until they get a few more fixes out. great mode but it needs at least another 3 months of refinement for sure

There sure are a lot of bad posts this new years. Railjack was absolutely released early but they've mentioned all these problems that have been posted in the last dev stream and are actively working on it. I know giving workers holidays and time to rest is a sin in our capitalist hell world but come on.

I had my few weeks of fun from it, gonna give it a rest until the command intrinsic comes out. Thanks for listening.
they could've just not released it before it was ready (lol its DE here), but they had to because of marketing (run by our capitalist hell world)

you might be more prone to motion sickness / "video" vertigo, especially with some of the hosts at 500ms ping and an insanely fast jackin speed

god knows theres been some jackin I've had to look away from

That's the thing to, this would never be "ready", if they delayed this we would complain about the same things a month later
maybe I've just experienced more bugs or problems than other people, but (on PS4 at least) we're used to getting major patches weeks or months after the PC players, with all the hotfixes they entail

this time it went live like 5 days after the PC patch (to the amazement of us console peeps) and it's a lot more buggy and unpolished than I'm used to seeing

they've got a lot to fix, but this seems like a main mode they are going to really examine and add to within the next few years. steve's enthusiasm for railjack has been pretty intense the last 2+ years, although you could argue this was always part of warframes original inception

I'm sure a lot of the main problems (like the rare unreachable catastrophic breaches) will get fixed within Q1 2020 or hell, even Jan 2020

I'm a console peasant and I'm sick of my current clan since it's full of literal children that thing dropping slurs is the highest form of humor and the leader of the clan is one of those liberal-types who's not openly bigoted but absolutely refuses to clamp down on hate speech. I'm also, like, third in line in leadership of the clan, but any time I kick someone for being an rear end in a top hat they go whining to the leader who re-invites them.

Seriously, I know how half the admins on this site feel now. Only reason why I haven't quit yet is because I'm still trying to find out ways I can put subtle dicks on the Orokin art projects they have going on in the dojo.

All the changes that are up seem neat, I was kinda hoping to see some meltdowns in here about 4 x corrosive projection not removing 100% of armour anymore.

Although I know I'm a niche case, I essentially play solo and only do group stuff when cracking open relics.
the only reason people were so die hard about bringing corpro is because armor scaling is absolutely hosed and DE should have addressed it like 3+ years ago
