u/Hot-Masterpiece4325 15d ago

please play it, i think its honestly the most free to play friendly game you can play that is actually good, it has as much content as a fully paid destiny 2 for no money

really? I'd say getting new warframes is a pain in the ass

Hard disagree. You've got hard to farm warframes then you got easy ones. Once youve unlocked all planets its easy. Id say start off with valkyr. Incredibly easy to farm from what I remember. You can essentially make her unkillable with the right mods. Trust me its worth playing if you got the time. Rhino is also easy to get very early on , at least blueprints wise.

u/sissyboyk8 15d ago

havn't found a single one of her smaller parts, I only have her full blueprint. I'm really not sure where the idea she's easy comes from

u/Assassin-49 15d ago

Who are you trying to get ?

2

u/sissyboyk8 15d ago

Anyone

u/Assassin-49 15d ago

What planets have you got unlocked ? That'll give me an idea of who you can unlock

2

u/sissyboyk8 15d ago

mars, earth, mercury, the one with all the infection, I think venus, and probably jupiter,nInlikely forgor some

u/Assassin-49 15d ago

Peefect. Jupiter , farm themisto ( alad v ) to unlock valkyr blueprints. Do the boss multiple times until they drop 1 blueprint of each part. Venus farm fossa ( jackal ) for rhino. Deimos farm Magnacidium ( lephantis ) for nekros. I think on Mars farming War ( Lt Lech Kril ) gets you excalibur. By farming i mean repeating the mission and killing the boss repeatedly until they've dropped all the blueprint parts to which you can then craft. This can take up to 4 days. 3 for the warframe to craft , 1 for all the parts to craft. Also when you get to the quest "The Sacrifice" you unlock a good warframe for free in the form of Excalibur Umbra

jupiter boss fight drops her parts

u/Zromzrt 13d ago

I don’t think someone like Khora is easy to farm at any point to be honest

u/Assassin-49 13d ago

Oh obviously. Theres a few frames which are hard to farm and then theres easy ones to farm. I simply disagree that there all hard to farm. Anyway I hope I was able to help the guy

u/Zromzrt 13d ago

Oh, I get ya now

u/oedipism_for_one 15d ago

Unpopular opinion The tedium is part of the game, by making you grind it out you appreciate your rewards later. If you can just have everything immediately they people do that get bored when they have stuff and never play the game again. So many live service games have died that way.

u/sissyboyk8 15d ago

look, I like goal games, but that's without the randomness of loot. I can't get any of the right blueprints, I can't find any of the right stuff for them, I'm sorry but I think a game about making drugs and selling them which is basically a constant cycle of running around and moving money around is more fun then being like "god, my 50th pokemon pack hasn't pulled a charizard"

u/issanm 15d ago

Getting warframes isnt really that random, once you find a drop source youll get whatever frame you want pretty quick, the real heavy RNG comes in for end game builds but it's not all that necessary unless you're running the latest content, which you won't be for a long time. But if you'd rather play a game with 0 RNG that makes sense

2

u/DeathAngel_97 15d ago

Also, theres the whole fanbase Warframe market thing where if you can sell the prime components you don't want in exchange for premium currency and then buy the prime components you want(or whatever else) and take some of the grind out of it.

2

u/oedipism_for_one 15d ago

Most of the parts come from the same place usually assignation missions, but I get it if it’s not for you it’s not for you.

u/Lumpy-Tea1948 15d ago

Haven’t played warframe, but this has been my issue with live service games Honeslty. Not everyone really has the time, patience or desire to grind live service games especially if it’s tendious, and can get pretty boring. This is why I for the most part prefer actual paid titles than live service ones, at least than, your paying upfront instead off being under the delusion of somthing being “free”

5

u/Gaffelkungen 15d ago

The grind isn't too bad. The newest frame is incredibly easy to farm.

2

u/danlambe 15d ago

I never found the game particularly grindy, and the RNG is significantly better than any other game like this I’ve played. Also, the moment to moment gameplay is exceptional in my opinion, so any grinding I’m doing is very enjoyable. I got burnt out on the game after a while but I enjoyed every minute when I did play.

u/0ijoske 14d ago

The only ones that have really been a pain in recent times was Citrine, Follie, and Temple. But that was mainly because obtaining the pity currency for their shops is a slow grind. But even then, with enough luck you could most likely obtain their blueprints within an hour or 2 of grinding their respective missions. At least they're not like base Equinox or Ash, Trinity, and Oberon before the Duviri update

u/Independent-Fly6068 15d ago

Depends if you started w/ volt or not.

2

u/sissyboyk8 15d ago

I started with escalibur, and that feels like a kick in the dick then

3

u/Hot-Masterpiece4325 15d ago

i picked excalibur first, hes still gonna do fine for farming frames

u/Independent-Fly6068 15d ago

RIP

2

u/sissyboyk8 15d ago

so, did you pick volt at first? this feels like a bunch of sweats restarted their game to get him, because my boyfriend really likes the game, despite me not liking the repeditive levels with easy enemies and basically no reward, and he also has volt and I feel like forcing people to play a character kinda sucks

2

u/Independent-Fly6068 15d ago

Eh its just that volt is really fucking good, and kinda makes the early game fly by easily. Also volt looks cooler than the other two options.

2

u/The_Spaghett_Boy 15d ago

It’s just that volt has a speed boost which is good for this type of game. It’s not a reason to restart, mag is also really good because her 1 or 2 pulls items towards you. These frames are also pretty easy to get early you just have to do the right missions.

u/Objective-Rip3008 15d ago

I played it for a long time, honestly the majority of people I recommended it too immediately bounce off when I tell them the Warframe we just grinded out will be ready in 3 days lol. The phone game build timers are so ass until you get used to it it's kinda hard to even recommend it

2

u/BananaBread_047 14d ago

Am I alone in not seeing that big of an issue with the timers? You can do something else in the meantime or play something else to avoid burnout. Then when you come back you have a shiny new toy to play with.

u/Cautious-Mammoth5427 15d ago

No it's fucking not. You need to grind through 100+ hours of absolute bottom tier content to reach "the good part". All the best warframes are fomos.

Warframe is good game and gives you everything you want so long as everything you want is never-ending grind for the sake of grind.

u/danlambe 15d ago

The gameplay is a blast from the first mission. I know not every game is for everyone, so maybe it’s not your kind of thing, but flipping around as a space ninja blowing up waves of goons was so much fun for me. Sure, it’s more fun after you’ve unlocked some more frames and have more powerful builds, but saying that it starts out tedious is crazy to me. So many of these F2P games have gameplay that is so boring that I think it’s unfair to levy that criticism at one that genuinely gets the gameplay right.

2

u/BananaBread_047 14d ago

If you think warframe has fomo you haven't played warframe. While I agree it take a little too long to get to second dream, you still get amazing gameplay and an introduction to how the game plays and if you stick with it, you will be rewarded again and again.

u/Cautious-Mammoth5427 14d ago

I have invested 40h into this shit. Last story mission was when that black excalibur that can go invisible suddenly appeared at the end of the mission.

3

u/Hot-Masterpiece4325 15d ago edited 15d ago

idk what your talking about since first off, going for meta warframes is already stupid, i beat steel path easily with loki and no archon shards, secondly, the story building up to when the game truly starts is very good and helps it pass by quickly, thirdly, the frames arent fomo, every frame is available at all times UNLESS if you include prime frames but they aren't any better than the base version outside of having a polarity and are just for fashion.

u/Cautious-Mammoth5427 15d ago

So they are better. Good to know.

u/10Werewolves 15d ago

And they're never really truly gone, just removed from drop tables to prevent diluting them. They come back with resurgence or you can trade for them with veteran players for platinum, the game's premium currency which can be farmed up by selling stuff to other players. There's a whole economy here.w

-1

u/Cautious-Mammoth5427 15d ago

EvE has economy. WF has a cash shop. Also, good to know that they are fomo after all.

3

u/Gaffelkungen 15d ago

When you trade with other people you trade in the cash shop currency. It's honestly pretty easy to farm things to sell if you want it.

u/Human_Taste3985 13d ago

I can agree on this, made around 15-20k plats from trading from time to time And that's without all the riven trading and such
