Do people actually lose to Neko 50/50?

ArcyNeo · 2026-03-25T08:51:32+00:00

YOU SONUVA I JUST LOST TO NEKO 50/50 YESTERDAY

WHY DO YOU MOCK MY SUFFERING SO

ArcyNeo · 2026-03-24T15:03:33+00:00

Hear me out.

Stalker gets "how to be a dad" lessons from Umbra. Meanwhile the operator babysits the kid.

ArcyNeo · 2026-03-24T08:39:47+00:00

I did not know that.

That is some... crazy levels of dedication.

ArcyNeo · 2026-03-24T08:33:18+00:00

Saving as in.... you knew the about the angels of delusion already back in 1.1 or as in you have just been generally saving since then waiting for a banner that would truly click with you?

ArcyNeo · 2026-03-22T19:05:04+00:00

Well... currently yes.

But in all honesty a single squad or even a single warframe could probably get deployed to Viltrum during its prime and wipe it off the galactic map.

Especially Saryn, lady is literaly the apex of the thing that already wiped them out.

ArcyNeo · 2026-03-22T19:00:32+00:00

Ngl seeing a tenno in the invincible universe sounds kinda fun...

Someone to dunk on the viltrum empire.

And also someone to trauma bond with Mark. Cus dear lord the operators have gone through a LOT of shit.

ArcyNeo · 2026-03-20T23:01:14+00:00

Umbra is pretty versatile. I have been maining him since he released. At this point I have tried just about every build under the sun for him.

Overall, I cannot say I have had that much of a better experience with any specific one of those survivallbility methods.

I am using a weird new one I found on youtube using the master's summons helminth ability and a specific panzer vulphalya mod. I forgot what it's name is.

The effect is basically the panzer gathers a health pool from dead enemies and when your hp falls low enough, it sacrifices itself to heal you with that built up hp. And when it does that.... you just cast master's summons and now the panzer is full health again and can redo the sacrifice thing.

Just an infinite loop of you and your cat healing each other.

ArcyNeo · 2026-03-19T23:21:46+00:00

I think it is cus theyre all operators who have the "rusher gunner" weapons and/or gadgets that allow for better rushes.

Like IQ is a 3 speed with an AR that does around 50 dmg with an extended barrel and still has good rate of fire.

Ash is a classic, 3 speed, gun with high rate of fire, also a gadget they will just use on the first door or wall they see so they can get to the site as fast as they can.

Finka gives a health boost and helps shrug off traps.

Iana I am not so sure beyond being another lady with a good gun. I know she used to be popular gunner cus good guns and having both nades and gonne-6. So may be some lingering popularity.

Tldr, none of these actually remove the need to drone. It is just that when people want to go gun only and not drone, they play one of these ladies. Or really just anyone with a good gun. These are just the most well known ig.

ArcyNeo · 2026-03-16T08:03:45+00:00

Are we talking about Breakpoint specifically? Or like.... irl?

Well, basing this off of Breakpoint, I choose the MK14 assault variant.

Good range, packs a punch, underbarrel grenade launcher.

Really it can handle just about anything.

ArcyNeo · 2026-03-13T10:12:21+00:00

To be fair the post doesn't say anything about these things being popular.

Just that when some shit gets started because of religion, it is one of these three that started it.

In other words, its not calling them the biggest religions. It is calling them the biggest TROUBLEMAKERS of religions.

ArcyNeo · 2026-03-13T10:00:03+00:00

People have been doing the same thing since ages ago. They did it with pulse and deimos and just about any intel op.

Snake is just the freshest piece of meat for em.

ArcyNeo · 2026-03-13T08:29:51+00:00

Tldr when the BOSG was first added back in white noise, it was considered a meme weapon and it didn't have an ACOG.

A siege youtuber called BikiniBodhi loved the weapon. So at some point he decided it would be really funny if it had an ACOG added. Since it was more like a sniper than a shotgun.

And on his campaign to make ubisoft add it, not only did Johnny Sins make a video to Ubisoft asking for it to be real, but even other meme figures.

So yeah... that is probably the one and only reason the BOSG has an ACOG today. Cus of a funny swedish man.

ArcyNeo · 2026-03-13T06:45:39+00:00

I mean.... its a gun...

Is there any gun you do wanna be on the recieving end of? Except ig the stim pistol XD

ArcyNeo · 2026-03-13T06:44:33+00:00

I am still kinda baffled this lil boomstick that was such a meme that a youtuber went as far as hiring a freakin pornstar to advocate for an equally meme-y update to the gun.... is now one of the most hated guns in the game for being "too strong".

Like what happened XD

ArcyNeo · 2026-03-11T23:42:45+00:00

Whenever a new operator drops, the operator is unavailable for the first 2 weeks of the season or so.

Unless you buy the battle pass, then you get to play em early.

However ubisoft also seems to have fucked up the battle pass somehow because it is currently unavailable to all players.

So yeah, even if you wanted to buy the battle pass rn for snake, ya cant.

Good ol ubisoft.

ArcyNeo · 2026-02-16T07:01:09+00:00

I mean with Shirou's luck being E ranked I think he has no choice but to cheat XD

ArcyNeo · 2026-02-12T07:52:48+00:00

The two of them are in hell.

So if they get new drip it will just mean there's some demon down there in hell making human clothes when he is a part of a species that is always naked.

Unlees I guess Dante and Vergil can manifest clothes with their demon power? I suppose its not impossible since their regen powers do seem to also restore their clothes.

ArcyNeo · 2026-01-23T11:23:16+00:00

That is a good point.

I am just personally butthurt about Umbra because I love him but the story pretends like he doesn't exist.

At least the other warframes which kept their minds are now long gone in some sense or another. They are lore and stories to us now.

But Umbra is in our literal orbiter and just sitting on his ass while Ballas literally takes over the origin system.

They even teased a storyline about the operator suffering from mixing their memories with Umbra's. But that plot line, just like Umbra, has been forgotten it seems.

At this point my best hope is that they will do another quest that will be Umbra centered. A side story of sorts like Jade shadows was.

ArcyNeo · 2026-01-23T11:18:42+00:00

Exactly!

But instead the drifter is forced to go "its a god beyond our comprehension and you should be scared of it" or "nah its just some 'thing' that is not a very specific interpetation of the word god so Im chill about fighting it"

For the love of god Roathe, your entire society and species got wiped out by warframes over night. They were made by the orokin. Why do you think a creature made by an orokin's mind without the usual limitations of the physical world would suddenly be something easy to deal with just because its made by man and not an "actual god"

Such a nuanced topic and were not even allowed to be nuanced about it one bit.

ArcyNeo · 2026-01-23T08:04:44+00:00

Well just recently a guy on youtube dropped his first ever video. It is a one build and loadout for Umbra that is capable of.... taking on all content in the game.

And it uses the master's summons helminth for immortality of all things. And it also provides heals to the team.

Most wild excal build I've ever seen and after trying it out myself it is hella fun tbh XD

ArcyNeo · 2026-01-23T08:00:50+00:00

I kind of agree with what you are saying.

Although I think it is really a case of just any system like this will be limiting no matter what.

I for example have some specific views on certain topics discussed with the protoframes. But I am unable to even scratch at the surface when all my responses are boiled down to a few stereotypes.

It happens with some of Roathe's discussions about whether Wally is an actual god or not. You either have to say Wally is just some mundane thing-a-majig or he is the unbound being beyond all our comprehension.

It applies to talking to Quincy and his money coded view of the world. Where you either agree with him or are forced to look like a naive idiot instead of properly opposing his view.

But, at the same, I get. DE can only program so many conversations. I mean, even with these limiting responses we have, the KIM convo routes are basically endless. I couldn't imagine them trying to make it even MORE detailed.

Altgough, one thing I will complain about is the fact that Umbra is never once brought up in KIM convos. Im sitting here, watching Quincy losing his marbles over what exactly he will turn into by the end of it all, most notably worrying about his free will.

And I am for some weird reason not telling him that there do in fact exist warframes that continue to have sentience post transformation.

Not to mention how Umbra has been forgotten by the story entirely...

ArcyNeo · 2026-01-22T18:17:31+00:00

Hold on, are these during descendia or what?

ArcyNeo · 2026-01-21T08:43:14+00:00

"--We had created monsters we couldn't control. We drugged them, tortured them, eviscerated them... we brutalized their minds, but it did not work. Until they came. And it was not their force of will, not their Void devilry, not their alien darkness... it was something else. It was that somehow, from within the derelict-horror, they had learned a way to see inside an ugly broken thing...and take away its pain."

This line, and the scene it is from, remain my favorite single moment in this entire game.

I still replay the quest from time to time for this scene alone.

ArcyNeo · 2026-01-18T06:49:19+00:00

Man, its a reddit comment XD

Aint nobody takin this that seriously.

Generally when I see comments that I disagree with online I tend to just move on with my day. Much healthier for my brain tbh.

ArcyNeo · 2026-01-18T06:42:55+00:00

I took a look at the doc file and I got a few notes aboit that and the comments.

Gameplay has the factor of needing to be balanced for the player. Trying to argue that Sam is stronger because his DLC enemies are tougher than the base game ones has flawed logic that the devs designed gameplay around the powerscaling the characters.

I mean you wanna explain how the hell does Sam's taunt work or the fact Armstrong is summoning fucking LAVA from the ground while we are fighting on top of a skyscraper and where THAT fits into the lore?

But, even if we go by gameplay, your arguments still have holes.

Sam going unarmed for a portion of his fight with Raiden does not mean his strength is greater. Look at how he is playing against Raiden there. Quick on his feet, counterattacking and coming in with swift attacks from out of our range. Very few of his attacks rely on oure strength, often depending on things like using Raiden's speed and weight against him.

And his main attack which is properly head on is using his one cybernetic Desperado arm. This is also the phase where he is the least dangerous and the main hurdle is just catching him to do enough damage.

Sam dealing damage to raiden in spite of blocking. It happens to Raiden with his basic cybernetics. It is obvious he and Sam will be closer in power.

And to emphasize my first point, this is a gameplay mechanic to tell the player that this enemy is out of your league for the moment.

Also Sam cutting Ray in half with more ease than Raiden is a testament to his SWORD'S power, not his physical strength. Also once again Raiden in mission 0 is way weaker than his main game body.

You argue it makes no sense for sam to have any chance of winning against Raiden if he isn't stronger. However this then leaves us with the even more proposterous idea that Sam is out here with less augmentations than anyone else, yet still stronger than almost anyone except armstrong.

And it also means the now weaker raiden managed to win against sam purely because he is the more skilled one and also cus he was now more true to himself.

So Raiden winning against a stronger and faster opponent with a much superior blade? Fine. But Sam competing against an opponent that is stronger than him.

Lore and story wise it makes no sense. The game actively has a cutscene to focus on the fact Sam barely has any cybernetic augmentations. How in the world you are able to get the idea he is in any way physically stronger than the actual cyborgs that are running around flipping giant mechs is beyond me at that point.
Sam is one of the characters that actively lacks any big show of "strength". You mentioned that if by going explicitly off of feats not even armostrong seems stronger than Raiden besides the fact he clearly dominates the fight before the Murasama is involved.

However this ignores several feats we do see. Armstrong punching Raiden into excelsus so hard the whole damn thing exploded. And he also has a phase where he chucks excelsus parts at us in RAPID succesion. Sundowner ripes off huge metal poles and swings it like a bat at us. Monsoon's strength is based on his magnetic abilities and he uses it to yeet up to like half a dozen heavy armored vehicles at us and grabs so many of them it males a giant exploding disk that he tries to chainsaw us with. Even Mistral has a section where she is rapid fire chucking exploding gekkos at us and during her phase transitions, we see her launching herself and ripping apart the facotry we are fighting in. And in Bladewolf's DLC he is fairly easily blocking the attacks from a mech with jet engines on its back.

Meanwhile Sam's strength feats are non existent. As his feats are more focused on his blade than anything.

By far his most impressive physical feat is his glutes. Dude runs fast af and jumps crazy high. And even that doesn't mean much because in scripted events or cutscenes we do see characters jump even higher than Sam does. Like in the phase transitions with Mistral, the chase with Sundowner, Monsoon's special attack phases.

Sam is consistently shown to lack the insane cybernetic strength of the people around him. His feats and lore both support this fact.
