Dat trailer. Had to watch it a couple more times. I'm hoping we will see more of this in the game as development advances. And good news about the PS4. More revenue sources for the game!

Got a 12 hour Orokin Catalyst alert following the Livestream! 11 hours left to get it.

 

[derFeef]

Nice, this game is hopefully taking off. DE done good.

 

[Vigilant Walrus]

With the option of duels, this has peaked my interest.


1) How deep is the combat system? is it wack-a-mole or is there some strategy to the combat like in Chivalry and Mount and Blade?


2) Is there any solid story or are you just killing things through corridors?


3) Is there any social lobby where people goof around, or is it browser based hot-join games?


4) whats the deal? are you playing as aliens or are you men in robot suits? can you customize your characters looks?

Not to completely deflate your enthusiasm... but you probably shouldn't get too excited about dueling. To say that it's not the focus of this game would be a major understatement: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRGn1sntVFc

1) It's a simple, fast-paced shooter with a Diablo-like structure (loot and randomized levels).

2) There's are traces of an interest-ish backstory, but it's not really in the game (yet?)

3) There's region, clan, squad chat and clans get to build a dojo hangout space with research labs and silly duel rooms.

4) Most likely men and women in robot suits. It's the kind of small-scale interplanetary sci-fi that's popular these days, so every faction in the game is a different variety of humans, even the ancient alien kind. Currently, you can customize your colors (additional palettes are real money purchases) and choose from two helmets (the alternate one is bought with real money, or a rare mission reward).

Maaaaaaaaan I really want to start working on our clan Dojo... That resource scaling fix can't come fast enough.

After looking at the wiki some more, I never really gave much thought to the energy costs of building... Therefore I have brainstormed this slightly more "pie-in-the-sky" layout!

If we build the cross hallway and a reactor room first, we'd have enough energy to build whatever for a while. I just hope this all fits lol.

 

[fallengorn]

Realtor rooms? NINJA please.

 

[Mr_Appleby]

played through the first set of missions over the last couple of days. Grinding my way towards blueprints and mats I see could take some time but the game is fun so far. If gaf clan is still active could you add a 'Berdle' ?
edit: damn that was quick, thanks

You forgot the most important part.

WHERE'S THE CEREAL HALL!!!!!

 

[ArtistDude88]

Cereal vault will always be in our hearts.

Also, looks like the next Prime frame will be.... Mag?!

 

[ShadyLurker]

Just started this game a couple days ago and really enjoying it so far. My username is "shadylerker" if you still have the GAF clan going I'd like to join.

Wait, what?

Maybe I should look into this game.

I don't mean to discourage you from playing it, but the loot system is not as extensive as something like Diablo or Borderlands.

 

[ArtistDude88]

Patch just went live... Looks like we have 2 new weapons! A boomerang looking thing, Krestel, and that polearm we saw in the livestream a while back, Orthos.

The Orthos is a double bladed polearm, a first of its kind for the Tenno.
The Kestrel is a deadly Boomerang, a heavy throwing weapon that can knock down enemies at a distance.

- Toggle Sprint now an option in UI Settings
- Aim Assist for controllers is now a toggle option.
- Added Clan “Message of the Day” feature. People with Ruler or higher privileges in clans can add a MOTD by using this command “/motd” in their clan chat channel .
- Mantle Animations added, get ready to front flip like Frost in the latest trailer!
- Machete and Prova Prod now share a new animation set.
- Kunai sheaths can now be colour customized.

Changes

- Increase max length of Flux Rifle Beam.
- Added gibbing polish to enemies that are killed by doors.
- Added confirmation messages to UI when performing Clan Actions (promotions, etc).
- Various Sound improvements to weapons with this Hotfix!
- Tesla Coils on characters will now have fewer FX.


Fixes
- Fixed crates being in defense mission dead zone
- Fixed bug where Arrows would float in game.
- Fixed issue where using Mags Crush on Moas would cause them to “die” twice.
- Fix for Ammo pack beacon remaining in game after ammo is picked up.
- Improvements to Galleon Wall Running in certain connectors .
- Fix for sprint preventing certain weapons functions (sprint and aim works, sprint and shoot cancels run).
- Fix client issue with Blade Storm: wasn’t properly creating teleport effects.
- Fixed various collision issues affecting AI enemies and players in the Orokin Void levels.
- Fixed arm fins on Excalibur and Excalibur Prime clipping through the arm when using iron sights.
- Fix for Grineer bombard rockets being collidable after explosion
- Fix for triggered pressure plates being host only in Orokin Void.
- Fix for lighting issues in certain levels.
- Fix for Capture Target being dissolved by acrid, becoming un-capturable.
- Fix for Nyx absorb being interrupted by Nauseous crawlers.
- Fix for Volt getting up from bleedout when speed ends.
- Fix for Kunai not operating as a silent weapon.
- Fixed kills not being counted by Rhino’s Charge and Stomp.
- Fixed player being held in air when pulled by Grineer Scorpion on different elevation

They're covering the best part of the design with blingy garbage? Weird choice to say the least.

That couldn't possibly make this less descriptive. Good about the fusion cores, but the rest... buh?

 

[ArtistDude88]

Did Xini with Bombless and finally got my first T3 Void key from wave 10 reward

 

[metalshade]

Keeps failing the update!
Wont let me login.
Guess I wont be able to join the gaf clan tonight unless it magically fixes itself, sorry guys.

 

[Flipyap]

Woah! I had no idea the original defense map got a graphical update, let alone such a huge one.
Good thing I have that bastille, because I've spent most of our 15 rounds (ending with a tier 3 key) staring at stuff.

Rad.

 

[ArtistDude88]

Wow, that's quite the overhaul!

 

[Silky]

Just got into this today with a couple of friends. Very very fun.

 

[tangmaster96]

I got a tier 1 key in Olympus after wave 5.

 

[Flipyap]

Ding ding ding

Dong dong dong

 

[Parakeetman]

This is a totally badass game do love it. And just goes to show that you dont need a cover system to be an awesome TPS.

 

[ArtistDude88]

Welcome newcomers! If you and your friends want in the GAF clan, give me a holler! Could always use more active players

Grats Flip... I want thaaaaaat!

Also, this slide cooldown between movements really sucks...

 

[tangmaster96]

Damn it, where's mine.

Wow congrats, the master thief is pretty rare.

I managed to find one the other day in from the parkour course of the Orokin void.

It makes farming resources much easier.

Now THAT sounds lucky. I have yet to find a single useful mod in the void, so far I'm mostly getting skills for frames I don't plan on using. Kind of deflates the excitement after a while.

 

[tangmaster96]

10 hours til Latron Prime.

 

[Alucrid]

Loving the new slide mechanic. If it's new. Feel free to toss me a gaf invite, same name as my gaf name.

Also, re the PS4 edition, was anything announced if the PC/PS4 accounts would be the same?

 

[tangmaster96]

Latron primes pretty awesome but i'm gonna need some mods on there pronto.

 

[Reckless Onion]

i've been grinding for latron prime but i cant seem to find the friggin barrel... got all the rest.

I also been grindin for 2 days for hell's chamber, cant seem to find it anywhere.

Barrel's the easiest part, i've found 3

As for hell's chamber, It's a rare mod so it'll take awhile to farm.

 

[Flipyap]

Are you doing high-level Grineer defense missions? It's a rare-ish defense reward (3.16% chance), but only on that type of mission. So, that's on Ceres, I think?

 

[Qvoth]

just saw these on the sony conference thread... i admit the last time i played this game was when it was still on beta 3-4 months ago, is the game this awesome now?

 

[derFeef]

While there are neat moves in the game, that is mostly custom animations

 

[Qvoth]

custom as in community made mods? wat?

 

[Vigilant Walrus]

custom as in made for pre-rendered trailer.

 

[tangmaster96]

Vauban systems BP alert up, you've got half an hour left.

 

[tangmaster96]

Guess we have to farm trinity for Smilax.

You should be happy I started playing more. No I kid, Artistdude and I already got the first part. Now we just need two more.

Also thanks for telling me about the Fusion Cores, now my mods are better and I can probably solo missions better.

I need to catch up with you guys!

Was curious as to how much it'd take to max out Hornet Strike..

That's using 205 rank9+ fusion cores... Holy. Balls. So much for super OP kunai sexy time.

ALSO! That is only for the last 4 ranks of that mod.

Now I know how far that mod can go! I must upgrade mine!

 

[Bombless]

Tbh I think Kunai will get nerfed...they're way too damn good as they are. And I say this having them at lvl 20 and unpotatoed with mediocre mods.

Edit : That PS4 trailer got me interested in Nyx. Her Ultimate requires getting shot at to be able to do damage or does it always do damage and the text is just fluff?

No, getting shot at just boosts the dmg.

 

[ArtistDude88]

Oddly enough, the increased drop rate in Void keys is almost annoying to me now. Just got 4 or 5 T2's in a row. I just want them Handspring and Master Thief mods

What's odd is that people seem to be void-begging in region chat even MORE now that keys are fairly common.
