If this leak is accurate I got to say it reminds me of Rhino Prime access. Very very popular and powerfull frame? Check. OP as fuck gun? Check. Third weapon which is ugly as fuck and no one really cares about? Check. And then it hit me - next access will come out at Christmas holiday time and DE now have big investors. It wouldn't be surprising if DE does their best for impressive end of the year sales numbers.

that actually makes a lot of sense, and there's nothing wrong with it either, at least imho, after all if they are aiming for t hat and pull it off they might just draw in more investors, and thus more budget, which really can't be a bad thing, specially if said investors come from multiple sources.

also, regarding the vasto, well yeha i have to admit the star barrel is weird as fuk, i'd wait until release to make an actual beredict though, not to mention they might tweak it, the models look like they're still WIP to me, i personally think if they just shrank the star's points it'd look fine.

The Mesa Update (15.5) has arrived.

Mesa Update, featuring Batshit Insane Salad V.

The update includes an event that ends Wednesday next week where we have to stop Salad from invading the system.

There's a quest to hunt down Salad specifically. You can get Mesa via fragging Salad.

5 new weapons including the gunblade (!?).

5 new infested: Two support MOA, 2 new Ancients and a new unit spawned by one of the ancient.

6 new Syndicate weapon, with built in Syndicate Eleven Hour Power.

+ Tons of fixes/changes.

Edit: Bloody Tenno.

fun fact, "mesa" is spanish for table

So we're supposed to knock the Table off the Salad? I always thought it was the other way around...

Oh god, new inventory UI. It's just... I don't even... no.

I'm bit upset right now. Please tell me something nice, give me links with puppies and kittens, anything! I desperately need dose of happy.

Good news! To get the latest warframe, you need to:

1) Complete the quest

2) Buy the key blueprint from the market

3) Wait for an Infestation Outbreak

4) Hope its reward is one of the key components

5) Run the Outbreak the requisite amount of times to get the component

6) Repeat steps 3-5 until you have all the components you need

7) Build key

8) Fight mutalist Salad and use up said key

9) Repeat steps 3-8 until you have all the parts you need

well at least you don't have to farm them constantly like with hek, all you gotta do is wait for an outbreak with components in it and do it, instead of endlessly farming the components; it'd take more time sure, but i think it'd take less actual play-time

I would think DE would prefer that we play the game more rather than less.

edited 28th Nov '14 8:31:54 AM by CorrTerek

i'm not saying otherwise, i was just saying the grind for it is nowere near as bad as for hek or lephantis, it has more time-walls, but less actual grind.

Cmon Prany, keep some composure, I've put good money on you flipping out because of the new MOA infested before anything else.

Thanks, guys! I don't know what I would do without you.

I'm here for you man.

Also, Devstream passed and I could partake in the hub stress test.

I'm not 100% sure whether I should be optimistic or pessimistic. On the one hand, the hubs were functional even when it just got out DE's internal testing. As far as I could tell it ran smoothly with 20 people, but FPS would regularly take a dip past that point.

We could see all 6 Syndicate rooms, unfortunately Clem didn't have his double Grakat nor did anyone actually have unique pose (except maybe Red Veil edge lord). Surprisingly New Loka Dear Leader had legs and arms. Somewhat unnervingly, there was a sect-like gathering of people in the room's pond.

Beyond that I can't really think of a serious highlight. I've never been a fan of "social" locations in game, so I'm lukewarm about hubs.

They are actually still in the game right now, to enter it you need to be either a Founder or a MR 15+ player. It's located on Venus and is a regular node.

Yup, I was there and crashed only twice. Third time lasted long enough to get me bored. Let's give what everyone surely wants - opinions:

Cephalon Suda has tiny version of her sitting in corner serving as medallion merchant. It looked so cute. And stupid.

I tried to see if I can clip in Hexis's merchant. I could. Also my first crash. What could this mean?

I hate to say it, but Stalker Cosplayer Club gets reward for sexiest syndicate representative.

Steel Meridian surprised me with, um, figure. Yeah, I like making jokes about gunners but, damn, I sincerely never expected anything under that layer of armor to look borderline pretty. Just look at Meridian's representative! She almost got legs. Almost.

Loka's room lacked anything relating with hippies, nudists and weed whackers, but compensated it with arms and legs. I was understandably dissapointed. On the other hand I liked her dress. I feel dirty for saying it but... it was pretty.

In some incomprehensible way Perrin Sequance look like even bigger nerds than general corpus faction. If I can't give em wegies, I'll be surely disappointed.

So the gold tier for Mutalist Incursions survival mission is... Half a fucking hour. When it gets downright murderous around the 10 minute mark. Taking the piss, or what?

Oh hi everyone that probably doesn't remember me. Finally able to play Warframe again, and must remember how Syndicates work.

soo, i was cheking the hubs, turns out i actually like them, i just can't keep myself from wondering just what is gonna be past the door on the north wing (it's the only blocked door), i specially like suda's room, it's all weird and voidy, makes me wonder just wtf suda is exactly.

however i also accidentally stumbled uon something odd, turns out the models for the ppl in the hubs actually have faces under their helmets/facemasks, but those faces lack... something

dear lord @_@

@Ganon: Suda is the actual Suda51.

lols, from the second i saw cephalon suda's name i've been wanting to joke about him being goichi suda, i just couldn't bring myself to do it XP

it's oddly fitting though, suda has that weird, kinda surreal style, only diference is goichi has a tendency for bloody murder in his games, while the cephalon supposedly hates violence.

@ Prany: Beyond her pretty dress, I'm still wondering just what color Dear Leader is supposed to be. The hub one is clearly white, but the one seen in the transmission seemed to be black. I don't really have hard feeling on which one she should be, but consistency would be nice. Also, she has dat ass.

@ Not-So-Badass Longcoat: 30 minutes seems about standard for survivals, if you're built correctly.

@ Marps: Oh no I remember you. I have plenty of picture of the behind of your head.

@ Eyeless abomination: Sweet Jesus.

It can't be I didn't check her ass.

Edit: Dayum!

Managed to withstand 25 minutes today, until I just flung the last Bastille and ran for the exit after burning all four revives. Swarm FX from the new MOA weren't helping.

I decided to go with the Arbiters and Suda for Syndicates. And I started the Archwing quest.

@Marc: Can't have pictures of someone's head through the internet. Might work with bananas though.
