So it doesn't reset your level? You can instantly get another 30 points? Bam, gonna use one on my Volt tonight!

Yeah that's damn fantastic.
In a little bit when I'm done working, I'm going to rewatch the live Warframe stream from earlier. Paladin Warframe sounds like I need that in my life.

All the good stuff happens when I'm at work
Yeah, if you use it at rank 30 you instantly get another 30 points. Forma is the item that resets your rank to 0.
Same here. Also, we need more variety in alerts. A mixture of short (sub 1 hour) medium (several hours) and long (several days) ones would be best.
That way you can log in and do quick things that aren't really worth that much or have super rare things, but you can also do some of the grander more rewarding missions that should last a few days.

Can we get multiple Reactors by joining friends' games?
You and me both, and the one I have is the one that shows enemies on radar. Somewhat useful for things like Void Defence missions (when they get stuck in the side rooms, and you need to hunt them to finish a round)

Well the potato alert mission was quite action-packed, especially considering that it was about 10 levels above what I've been doing recently. But the other guys did their part and I RHINO STOMPED the crap out of everything, including the framerate. I also got Sobek built and that thing is pure sex.
The new melee stuff on the livestream looked interesting. Controls on PS4 need remapping if blocking actually becomes useful, though.

Watching the Warframe Live broadcast from today, I love the new hud concept they showed. Not sure about the Paladin. I like the armor, but the helmet looks too much like antlers for my taste.
Really like the "earth" environments they showed and the idea of a day/night cycle. Warframe definitely needs more outdoor environments.

The wee blue bit where the mic is, it acts like a slider switch.
Up means the mic is muted, down means it's unmuted!
Enjoy
If this is a common thing, and people didn't know that the mics had a mute switch, you can colour me shocked. The damn thing's labelled after allThe wee blue bit where the mic is, it acts like a slider switch.

Well after spending hours playing with network settings i connected my PS4 directly to my modem (really should have tried this sooner, i just thought i was doing something daft with the settings) and i still received a NAT type 3, so i'm assuming it must be something on my ISP's side. Same router/modem i've used for ages and never had this issue w/ the past gen consoles so hopefully its something that can easily be corrected as i don't seem to be able to play warframe with very many friends and that is really a bummer at the moment.
I'll do some good donating and drop a bit of platinum to various research projects to make up for not being able to play with many of you and so i can feel like im still contributing to the clan, any thing i should focus on, or just whatever needs done?
EDIT: To those just joining in, i've tried all port forwarding and having my PS4 in my DMZ and am forced with a restrictive NAT at every step of the way.

The armor has hooves, so the antlers look has to be intentional. Rather like it myself.
Is this broadcast saved anywhere? Youtube or somesuch?
Twitch archive.
I guess they will also upload it to their Youtube channel soon: http://www.youtube.com/user/PlayWarframe
Yeah, I get that but there's just something that doesn't work about it for me. Can't put my finger on it though. It's a neat idea, but looks like an unfinished concept, which I think it is.

Haha
Tbh I think MOST people don't know about it! The only reason I found out about it is that I analyse new stuff that I get! I like to see how things are built and work (Probably due to being an engineer)
Most people are scared to use the wrong type of screwdriver in something never mind move something that is 'wobbly' if they don't know it has a purpose!
Although everyone says the wee headset is cheap and shitty, the detail of it is pretty cool I like the fact that it resembles a PS4 with the blue line and all
You know what could make you feel better? Spending US$60 on Platinum
Quoting again cause I thinking didn't explain properly.
I want to support DE
Is buying an equivalent dollar amount of the game in platinums the way it was intended?
My concern is that it becomes a bottomless pit of platinum purchases. As a new player I'm still trying to understand the mechanics and dynamics of this game and the new update has completely pantsed me in regards to working this shit out.
Any suggestions from veterans and newbies alike would really be appreciated.
I am actually quite shocked that so many people have trouble understanding stuff in this game. I never looked at a Wiki before I needed to find out where stuff drops. Figured all the other stuff out myself. Most of it is really not hard to understand. The main game after all is: Do missions, get shit, use shit to create other shit. Throw in some leveling and adding mods.
No, not at all - the game can be played entirely for free, it's just that whenever someone says they want to support the dev the usual suggestion is to buy the equivalent of a new games cost of in-game currency
Hell, if the PS4 version eventually gets the 20%, 50% and 75% Platinum purchasing discount rewards the PC version has then I think I may end up spending more...
Maybe we're just more attentive than others, because that little blue switch with the notch in it wouldn't be there simply for aesthetics, especially on a headsetHaha

I guess it could be a fair thing to do. I've dropped them probably $30 or so (from UK so taking a guess) as I really enjoy the game and it is by far my most played on PS4.
The only thing that bothers me though and is stopping me spend more, is that this game is apparently still in 'Beta'. So in my mind there could be changes etc in the future that I dislike which could make me stop playing the game, see for example the damage 2.0 changes. Some like it and some hate it!
Edit: I read a page or so back about forma reducing your level to zero? Is this the case?
Yep, if you use Forma you get a polarity but the level of the weapon resets.
Cool. I wasn't expecting anything too crazy but was hoping for at least a new gun or something. I played quite a bit but was still so far off affording one. I did get some new mods/powers though so that's cool.
Okay I'll keep at it then. I also don't want to splash any cash 'till I know for sure I'm gonna be playing it for a while. Didn't feel like a grind as I was progressing in missions. I just wanted a new gun
.Thanks! Gonna give it another spin now.

ugh, spent my credits on a shitty shotgun

Yeeeeup. I just take weapon suggestions from GAF now.ugh, spent my credits on a shitty shotgun

No I don't.
I buy whatever I see people use in missions/recommend in chat.
No I don't.
I just buy/build whatever looks cool.

It isn't ideal when shopping, but you can check out all the proper stats ahead of time in the codex.

Which one, was it the strun? God I hated that gun. Now the Hek is my love child, that's a manly shotgun. The sound it makes is worth it.
That's what I have. Reload times are awful.
Gah I want the hek but I want to try a rifle first.

Yeah the seer pistols the same reload as strun, can be a pain in the ass if you only have pistol and higher level mobs coming at you
Yeah I hated the Strun. Out of all the guns I have used so far I liked it the least.

Is this game hard to play at all ? It's not in my wheel house of genre gaming
Not hard to play, it just takes time.

You can use the Codex now. Perfect for scouting out different weapon types/abilities.
Not entirely.
See you get tower keys and Orokin Derelict keys, run those for prime parts/rare mods. Buy the Dragon Key blueprints build those for the Derelict runs at a chance of rare corrupted mods. Progressing through the star map will take every bit of level 30 maxed weapons/frames. You will need a group for later missions.
Oh and the Orokin Derelict runs drop Golem Nav Coordinate which you use to build the Assassin Derelict run. That boss drops Nekros gear every run.

Wait, what!? People are running around in level 30 Warframes that haven't been potato'd?
Duuuuuuudes. Don't be that guy! Trying a weapon out first is totally understandable, but Warframes should be potato'd immediately. Certainly by max level!
I'd (rightly) be pissed off if my group wiped and I found out that the other members were playing in un-potato'd frames...

So my only maxxed warframe is a Mag. With the existence of Mag Prime, is there a good reason to use my only orokin reactor on the Mag, if the prime is the same thing but with better polarities? Or am I getting this wrong, and the primes are sidegrades like any other frame, and not a direct upgrade?
To be fair, the tutorial is ass with these things AND I only got my first 'tato yesterday
I'll be 'tatoing him tonight, and if I get a 2nd I'll do my Excalibur as well
My thinking too - I was originally gonna hold out and use the 'tato for my Frost Prime... when I finally get the Systems piece I need ~_~
Why is this not in the OP?!
And I think I'll do this the next time I top up my Platinum reserves.

The basics are pretty easy to understand but the details of the more complicated things aren't properly explained at all. I'm talking about stuff like the tower keys, derelict runs, Orokin reactors/cells, loadout order, the full extent of your actual controls, now Damage 2.0. How many people here knew you can combine elements to create other effects without seeing it explained out of the game (Heat+Cold=Blast which has a knockdown effect)? It's still technically beta so I give them the benefit of the doubt, but that's stuff that needs to be addressed before "release".
