very well said. i know i will be outed for this but i kinda don't like helldivers 2. tried, tried again, still don't. why? no real customization. you have call of duty call in's via QTE (something i will NEVER like, just get rid of that qte crap) a couple weapons bolstered once in awhile, (all the armor is basically the same aside from one or two buff's/debuff's) and an upgrade mechanic that really only effects those call in's. the flavor is all there and i totally get that, love starship troopers and always will. just feel like it's missing so much it could have so easily but the dev's don't want to be bothered with adding new texture's/model's, fixing them to not clip etc, or add anything that is not a weapon or skin. i know i know, automata and the big enemy. but still. is a decent upgrade system so much to ask for when you know you already have the playerbase? just let me upgrade my weapons. maybe even 4 upgrades with dif rarity. don't even have to effect models or textures. armor upgrades? shit ya im all in at that point. armor and weps im in game right NOW. upgrades for the armor, weapons, call ins.

[@hwyadoin_alt]

I feel like a lot of it is “”inspired”” as in many of the sounds or icons are seen in other games whether they’re free or not. Destiny 2 got many of their icons for various things from free icon packs; but destiny 2 made those icons ICONIC. TFD suspiciously uses all the same icons with little to no change. Also, most of their characters are very obviously inspired (most of them are actually pretty original, besides bunny, which very clearly takes from gauss and volt and then also looks like a warframe) from other IPs. The enemies are very obviously inspired by destiny" the top half of the UI feels similar to warframe, and the camera angle and the reticle and the way damage counters look. It feels like a game that has taken a lot from many places and that’s COOL but it has done very little on top of that to differentiate it from any of those IPs. When I first heard about and saw it I literally thought DE was making it. PLUS Nexon is making it, PLUS it’s free, PLUS it’s gonna involve P2W mechanics.

And 3% is kinda good in this game where you can just repeat multiple times, 3-5% is about 3-4 hour grinding so not that bad, I would even say that after reaching endgame you easily farm all the ultimates in a weekend, took me only a day to get the materials for ultimate Ajax

[@TheZanzou]

@@marceloxaustivo784 depends on your luck and what activities you're grinding. Defense missions have been misserable for me personally. A 3% chance locked behind a 20 or 25% chance can get really bad if RNGesus doesn't bless you. But activators aren't too bad, some easily grinded ones in hard that give 6% drop chance too, 10% if using an energy activator which have an okay chance of dropping as well in hard mode.

​@Phillipmurr they don't need to do any quality of life improvements. It's the best f2p system around. Not many, if at all, other games, allow you to trade it's in game paid for currency among other players. The items you need to increase your mod capacity and polarize the mod slots, you can grind for in a fraction of a time. And it's soooooo much cheaper. Like, leagues cheaper. And they regularly give them out for free for doing certain quests than anyone can do. There's no comparison. DE's monetization is great for them and great for us.

As the "there is too much downtime" i can agree. Stuff spawns so slow and also at endgame doing bosses for blueprints.

Its because the heavy ammo has innate more damage, thats why when you search for "dps" most of the time the purble ammo ones shows first. If purple ammo was everywhere like the gray and orange ones no one would use them appart for aplying status effects then using solely the purple for dps. I use a grey ammo machine gun for dps and when i need a burst of damage quickly i switch to my shotgun witch has almost 100% more dps but when the ammo is gone its gone and probably wont drop during the boss fight again.

Farming 500 of 1 box would probably take a week, and this is just for 1 piece of whatever you are farming lol.

[@slavenharkin152]

The ball phase in that mission... No issues previously in my gaming group formed squads. Zero communication needed. We all figured it out immediately... I did a public squad earlier today, and one guy kept shooting them out of order. I'd wipe out the left one, almost be done with the right one, and the guy has been shooting the middle/top one breaks it just seconds before I finish the right one... Boom. Phase resets... I don't think they need to remove it because the balls spawn in showing you the order but maybe they need to add dialogue there if the team breaks them incorrectly. Maybe the Guide could say "Does the order they appear in mean something?". Anything for the players who are brain dead when playing... XD Otherwise I am enjoying this game a lot. There are some mechanics in the game that aren't properly explained like the vaults which also need a fix. There definitely is a progression speed issue. Even with the 30% boosts they gave us leveling feels slow, and progress feels sluggish in general. Leveling up a gun takes forever which is going to suck when I need to level up blue weapons. They also copied Warframe a bit too close on crafting. Sure. Put a crafting time on the pieces but assembling the gun should be instant. It's literally just assembling the parts that already exist. Why would that take HOURS to do? xD I am loving this game though. Is it perfect? No. But it's a game that I feel is important to be successful to hopefully get gaming back on course.

roaming enemies are kinda weird, like I get caught in the menu working on my build because a random group of 3-5 enemies spawns in any area around mission nodes, and can still spawn during a mission

as someone who playes warframe actively the grind is faster in first descendant. i mean just to get another suit you have to wait 2 days for it to be done while here its only 16 hours. also the drop rate for the pieces is still really really low as well although i dont recall the exact percentage. i do remember though as f2p you start with only 2 suit slots and a tiny inventory much much smaller than what first descendant has.

[@socrates7722]

22:49 the biggest problem I have is not that these items are 3% droprate. It’s the fact that for a majority of these pieces you have to go to the infiltration spot, hope somebody hasn’t cleared it, and then clear it for a 20% droprate of the amorphous material. Then you have to wait 5 minutes for it to come back. It could take 30-40 minutes to get 1 amorphous material. Then you have to take that to a void intercept and hope for the 3% drop. This system is really clunky and absolutely unfun to farm.

This game has a lot of potential to be something worth sticking on to. So far as a f2p not out of pocket player Ive had a lot of fun. Once you beat the main story it does turn into a grind to just level everything up and start the grind for new weapons and characters. They didnt make the grinds impossible and the missions are relatively short so they remain repeatable. Not a game for everyone but at least you dont have to pay anything to enjoy the product

[@Sofrew]

Something great in Warframe asides from being able to trade for platinum (premium currency) is the 75% off you can get for logging in, you have 2 days to buy any platinum with that discount. So the highest plat pack goes down to 45-ish € when the full price is 180€. So NEVER buy plat at full price, you can also get 20% and 50% off but I'd wait for the 75%. You probably wont need to buy plat ever again unless all you do is buy cosmetics. I hope the first descendant does something similar to this, market competition is great.

Not enough people talk about the fact that in a looter shooter game, the cosmetics are literally a massive part of the endgame. How you look is a progression system in and of itself, if that doesn’t change as you play, these games become incredibly stale. In a game like this, wanting to look cooler is a massive incentive in keeping you playing, you want to be the baddest looking mf in the social space, and so the worst possible thing that games like this can have is micro transactions that almost completely lock cosmetic progression behind a real world pay wall. In a looter shooter cosmetic need to be obtainable in the game itself, it’s unique from almost every other kind of online game in this aspect…if you’ve got to pay real world money to look better, nothing in the game matters.

You say that but Warframe's fashion endgame is still literally all microtransaction based and it's done very well for itself so it defeats your whole point. Everything from shoulder pads to helmets to even the colors you can use is monetized in that game. The endgame is just grinding mastery and rolling for god tier RNG raven mods. Not saying cool cosmetics shouldn't be earnable in game though, just that it very obviously doesn't make or break a game like you seem to think it does.

Main reason why people dont have problems with warframe monetisation is that premium currency is tradeable between players. And trade is big part of warframe community. You can trade blueprints for prime parts(better version of normal EQ). You can trade mods(last descendant took mods mechanic 1:1 from warframe). You can trade decorations, some resources like fish. You can trade arcane which is special thingy for minmaxing builds. You can trade some weapons. Loot of people are into trading rivens(mods with random stats but only for one specific weapon). In warframe you can buy everything for premium currency but not spending even one dolar for buying this currency. Problem with monetisations lies in lack of informations to new players that this is a thing. First thing that you see in market is prizes in premium currecy. But market isnt a Cash shop. Its in-game mechanic where you buy for example blueprint for some weapons and other stuff and you use for this in game money farmed on every mission.

LookI don't mind the crafting timer, but the timers should be shorter than a day or half a day. Realistically, most people aren't going to play more than like 2-3 hours if they do grind, so make them like 3-4 hours a piece. That way they are functionally the same because players would be coming back online the next day anyway, but the affordance of a shorter timer would also mean that if they wanted to come back later for another session in the day, they could have something to look forward to in order to keep them engaged.
