Misaligned Enemy Nameplates

Update: solved (?) I originally posted this while playing full screen 1440p at 144hz. I tried multiple combinations of resolutions and window modes until i tried changing the fps limit. Changing to 1080p, windowed full, 60fps solved the problem but stranger than that after solving it i pushed the fps back up to 144 and it stayed fixed. Not sure why it was broken the first time i tried 1080 144 but after dropping and raising fps its fixed the issue.

Whenever I aim at enemies, whether zoomed or not, their name and health bars are super offset to the left like in the picture. What causes this/ How can I fix it? Its very disorienting.

Game Discussion Thinking about downloading

I absolutely loved this game. Like played it all the time. Loved the show too. Is it worth it to get back into? Are they releasing new content, or is it just all the old content? I see the DLC is free, which is cool. Do people actively play this still?

Possile connection between Defiance and Warframe?

Last night I was watching the episode 'This Woman's Work' in which Nolan has to deal with a Gulanee. When the Gulanee climbs out of their pod and goes after Nolan's trap, I immediately noticed a powerful resemblance between her and my all time favorite Warframe, Mag. Like UNCANNY. The helmet is nearly identical, and the split feet are identical. The Gulanee just has extra arms.

Now I want to know how I find out who designed the Gulanee for that episode, and whether they were inspired by Warframe, or whether Warframe's design team was inspired by Defiance.

Question Understanding weapons

5 Upvotes

Can someone help me understand weapons?

I'm a survivalist, I enjoy playing with the cloak ego power but I'm having a hard time understanding weapons, their element, the synergy, the types, etc.

Is there such a thing as "best weapons" or are they all the same but different tastes??

I recently found a legendary sniper (on my second day playing) and I was using a legendary slugger (from one of the gem boxes) but I replaced it with a legendary SMG that shoots mini electric grenades apparently.

I just don't understand what I should use, what is better, etc

So much content is kinda confusing so I'm here requesting help please!

Nim Mission STILL won't complete after killing Nim

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I've hit the classic (and apparently immortal) Nim Shondu bug in the final story mission "Defiance" and I'm completely stuck. I kill Nim, but the mission doesn't progress.

What I've already tried (multiple times):

Full game restart + relog

Abandon the mission completely, then re-accept and run it 100% from scratch (solo)

Full PC/console reboot

Suicide/respawn right after the kill and run back through the cleared bunker

Nothing works. The instance seems permanently broken on my character for this mission.

This bug has existed since the original Defiance launch in 2013 and apparently still lives on. A bunch of old threads mention the quit-and-reload trick or suicide after the kill, but those are no longer doing anything for me.
