Star Map & Alerts
2
3
For Warframe, and Alerts, before I forget. Instead of having one alert chain (each alert lasts 45 minutes +/- 15, new alerts every 40 minutes, +/- 10, as it is now) have like, 5 of them. Three of them are "common" and are PURELY credits with resources sometimes, and cycle every 30 minutes. One is Uncommon and gives auras/resources/weapon bps etc, and rotates out every couple of hours. Then the last one is Rare and it spits things out two or three times a day for maybe an hour and a half. (think nightmare mods, tons of credits, vauban parts, etc).

5
And then for "random" missions that are currently covered by starmap, there are two options:
6
Tune the crap down out of the star map. There's no reason for Eris to have 43 nodes
7
Or, and this is the one that I like on paper but know would cause people to flip shit
8
Remove the star map completely and introduce a system along the lines of my understanding of Mass Effect Multiplayer. You can Host, pick a mission type, pick a tile set, pick an enemy faction, pick a difficulty level, and queue that up and have people join you, or you can "join a game" and you can hit go picking whichever ones of those things you want to do and it dumps you into a game with people and boom. Instant match making
9
Note: I fully expect the second option is not appealing to the vast majority of people and am merely suggesting it to suggest it.
10
From an in universe lore standpoint, I would fluff it as a change in how the Lotus runs her shit. We're choosing which missions to take, we're going and doing them, rather than... wandering around the starchart aimlessly?
11
Like, I don't understand what our /goal/ is by depopulating grineer ships over and over. There's no strategic thought process there.
12
We can't make a dent in their clone production unless we attack the facilities
13
14
Warframe Building and Assassinations.
15
I’d like to shift all warframe drops into quests. I would refine the current quests so that you do not have to build the part to get the next step in the quest. It’s needlessly disengaging to have to wait 12 (or 24, for chroma) hours to go get bits. (Note that with this change Chroma needs its recipe reworked, but I’m willing to make people who dealt with it (including myself) unhappy about it if it means that future people won’t want to scream bloody murder)
16
17
With that done, I would propose removing Assassinations from the standard star chart and instead have them turn up in Alerts. The bosses drop weapons based on the weapons they wield (similar to how the stalker drops weapons!).

Below is the more precise listing of changes.

28
            If no player choose defaults to stay.

Archwing:
107
    UI
108
        Map should be altered to a more 3 dimensional redesign to accurately find targets in space.
109
    Movement
110
        Unhindered movement on all axis.
111
        More sporadic enemy movements, too predictable.
112
    Archwing is boring
113
        Farming for Archwing parts will eventually end up like void drop tables.
114
        Enemy movement in idle states is too predictable.
115
        Not enough variety of Archwing missions.
116
    Add Archwing to void?
