That bug which has Argon drop from Phorid/Infested is pretty cool. I wouldn't mind this as a feature.

New Community Hot Topic.

Vote on such topics as "should Silva Aegis be buffed?" or "is it OK to have damage which bypasses shields?"

I am especially happy that they finally included the "Cake VS Pie" poll to settle the argument. Clearly cake is the winner here.

On a serious note, I am unhappy they didn't even make a section about Kubrows.

Toxic Damage is fine considering it can be stayed away from,

Bleed damage can go fuck itself with a rusty spoon, I mean, dropping dead just because I get clipped by a shotgun is just plain bullshi-

Hmm...

I can't see to vote.

Odd.

I'm not bothered that much by Bleed perso. If anything, I'd limit procs to health bar, and not shields.

That's weird, there shouldn't be an issue anymore.

Hotfix 14.0.9 patch notes.

Brings among other things the aforementioned color change. It's possible your palette will have changed a lot (my signature dark red is scarcely different from black now, for instance) and Kubrows might have changed a little or a lot. I for one was graced with - drum roll - a dark grey Kubrow instead of a light grey.

Still, I'm seeing some pics emerging of pretty rad Kubrows here and there. I like this fix all around.

Oh, and you'll get a gamma palette for logging in in the next two weeks.

See link for more thorough information.

Tried out new colours and frankly I don't like it at all. It is either textures masking dark, garish fruit basket or very pale. I'm planning to wait a day or two to see dev response and then request my plat back. Assuming I can do that. But I sure know I don't need "making circus look pale" classic and "third of me is pitch black" smoke screen.

It's unpleasant to say it, but U14 has been rather dishearting for me: UI nightmare, Ordis is really annoying, infested buffed through stat and not combat mechanics, fixing MK 1 problem with even moar MK 1 (and Drew missing whole fucking point. Thanks a lot!)

Later this day Mirage is coming out of foundry. Maybie kubrow too will be ready for action soon. These are literally only things keeping me in game. I'm not even burned out, I stick to thing I like. I'm just dissapointed.

Color change did wonders for my kubrow. was gray with a sort of brown pattern that was hard to discern.

Now is black with a very nice red pattern that I have not seen on any other kubrow yet.

This very much pleases me.

While I agree with the sentiment overall that U14 had more negative than I'd like, I do think DE will try to make it right. Just in the week following U14 we had 9 large hot fixes. Someone at DE will have to realize that there is a lot of shitty stuff at some point.

If it comforts you, Mirage's 1 is strong as fuck and Kubrows are actually pretty resilient, so long as you have Pack Leader and don't leave Mercury until you give him defense mod. I did 35 minutes in Apollodorus with mine being rank 3, for instance.

Lucky son of a gun.

Orokin Reactor alert!

Get your Golden tater!

Eh, I was thinking for more contributions in MK 1 threads, but seeing density of some posters... I give up.

And yeah, only five hours till Mirage. I won't even test her. Instant reactor. I desperately need some fun.

Oh, and reactor.

Hmmm... Completed the new introduction quest line. Pretty nice, and it gives a good direction and reason (or motivation) as to why the Tenno are fighting.

And apparently, Volt is still broken in terms of damage. See here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtpj6rsvH_w

Which reminds me I should start a new account some day to try the newb experience. If I ever care enough to.

Lol at Volt's shield, the damage number has so much figures it needs to jump a line. Doesn't really make me want to use Volt's shield more, but it's nice to know.

Also, apparently DE's server are being hit by a large DDOS for whatever reason, hence the servers being down (if you hadn't noticed).

HEY GUYS IM NOT DEAD YET! :D Edit: In other words, I'm back...and good god the amount of updating i need to do :(

Aaaaand I'll be going on a vacation for 2 weeks, My poor kubrow pup will be in stasis until then.

And about that DDOS... Well, there are conspiracy theories running that some members of ICE did so in order to take Sechura from Space Federation. Main evidence being that the DDOS started before the invasion of Sechura and ended after. And considering that a lot of ICE is made out of former Eclipse clans... This is going to turn ugly.

Well then. Also, I love the Castanas so far and their Corpus slaughtering fury.

So I played this on my friend's ps4 with his kitted out max level rhino prime/space pirate and absolutely loved it. I just got it on the pc, grabbed the excalibur, bow/dagger combo and...am I supposed to be dying this much? In the tutorial area?

I'm on the resource gathering mission and the second I alert an enemy six dudes and one of those shield power-up thingys show up and I can't get a clear enough shot off to down the flying thing or if I do I'm then retalimurdered moments later. I was thinking of selling the bow as I see the assault rifle is on the market and would probably be alot easier to shoot with but I can't find a way to sell my bow (mods have a window for selling though).

Should I be waiting for some other noob to join before doing the missions or do they not drop in during tutorial missions?

Dun-dun-dunn, plot thickens. Ladies and gentlemen, our endgame. (Assuming these speculations are true)

So, what are you more exited about: focus system or proxy wars?

Be prepared!DE worked hard on new player experiance, but failed hard. Get rid of starter weapons asap. MK 1 are universally agreed to be shit. Get regular Braton or Strun for primary and Lex for secondary. Melee is whatever for now since it needs better "feel" of game's pace and better mods than you can get now.

And yes, grouping is best option. I don't think you can get pugs in quests so you'll have to invite someone.

One more thing: wouldn't you mind once in a while report your starter experiance here (and in official forums). We are bit curious since as veterans we can't judge begginner's experiance fairly.

Re DDOS and ICE: I'd take the conspiracy theory with a grain of salt, as per usual.

Tho with EGT being part of ICE and all, I wouldn't be surprised all that much.

Are you using Blind? It could help you, maybe.

You can sell weapons from your inventory, which is accessed by your esc menu. As for teammates, they would definitely help.

Apropos of nothing; try not to use your starting plat at first. You might regret impulsive purchases.

I'm being cautiously optimistic with Focus. Tho I feel it won't add anything significant to the game, as it's only a super saiyan 2 thing. Proxy wars I am not looking foward to too much, they'll just be glorified invasion-like quests or something.

Currently I just want DE to fix Kubrows.

I'm opposite about focus and proxy wars. We are massivly op as we are. Our power must be cut significantly before DE gives us more of it. And buffing enemies may hinder new players' progress which makes me think DE will do exactly that. It's one of those things they are very consistant at.

Proxy wars may be bad and boring, but they may also be not so bad. And maybie interesting rewards? I do like loot, thank you very much, and not even ashamed.

Thatguy, I'd be willing to help out, if you have good internet? XD otherwise I may become more of a hindrance than a help. I have Rhino, Loki, Oberon.

What he said. I'm in game right now. Username is the same.

Heh, rhymes.

Honestly you're right about the Tenno being OP. Currently the only last frontier in the game are overleveled enemies from endless modes, and buffs are plain overkill (except for some neglected item).

With that said, Focus isn't complete yet (I think it might still be at the napkin stage) and it isn't clear exactly how it will work. I personally hope that it helps struggling frames while offering alternative builds to well-off frames.

As for Proxies, I'm setting the bar very low. Most "special" missions for events or whatever either becomes a grind fest or the gimmick has little to no charm. I'd love to be wrong, but I think it's unrealist to say they will be the highlights of Warframe. Compare to Dark Sectors...

hey, is anyone else suddenly having framerate problems? I used to get 50 fps even in heavy combat, but now whenever i load up I stutter and get 20-0 frames and warframe freezes up a lot.

welcome to U14 and it's plethora of performance issues...

fuuuuuccck... I come back from chicago to this? damn you U14! EDIT: I legitimately can't join a single game without freezing up. screw U14.
