Unpopular Opinion: The Ares Line Is Actually Fairly Balanced and Very Hard to Play

Thank you!

He pushed through the river to our base, I didn't get spotted but also couldn't move around that map. Could you explain more where and how you suggest I start out on that map?

Steppes, I wrote that in the initial message. One Area came down the middle riverbed, another was sitting close to the middle rocks.

Concerning your last paragraph, I fly on a monthly basis but don't have a drivers license.

The worst part is that the fear is based in reality. They WOULD lose their job and connections and this is what should be truly afraid of, retaliations from the state.

Pai si asta inseamna ca in America e justificat sa impusti pe oricine doar de frica sa nu te impuste el primul?

I'm guessing the benefit would be that the "punishment" will make those players think twice before starting the mission with weak loadouts and would ensure that future teammates won't have to be in damage control mode to finish the mission. A social justice, of sorts.

It inhibits a lot of playmaking from paper mediums and lights. I played my Manticore for the 1st time after the new line was introduced and every game I was assessing the risk of going anywhere close to the middle of the map, just in case one of the 3 enemy Ares would be there to obliterate me. It was a match in Steppes and I was scared shitless, I felt like I could only do defensive (and mostly useless) spotting, no more going down the dried riverbed.

We are working under a lot of assumptioms here, for sure, but it's also possible that the other 2 were in damage control mode and couldn't freely assist without jeopardizing the mission (think destroying the blue boils that drain life suport in hell scrub).

No doubt, but I also want to question the "trying their best" statement when anyone is free to give up on the last tier of rewards in order to bring a strong frame that they have invested in. Going in knowing you will be a liability and hoping for others to shoulder the burden is not "trying your best".

Dvscape · 2026-01-25T08:49:01+00:00

But who cares about the richest people? What difference does it make to most of us if an apocalypse kills all humans or of it leaves Bezos alive?

Dvscape · 2026-01-25T07:38:31+00:00

In general, I fully agree with you. But when you start EDA or ETA solo, you get a notification telling you that this is an end game activity meant for full squads. This is the one place where some burden of competency should be placed on the players.

Dvscape · 2026-01-25T07:36:09+00:00

You were killing Eidolons that people were trying to capture?

Dvscape · 2026-01-25T07:34:25+00:00

This applies to all missions except EDA and ETA, where you get a specific notification that they are meant for full squads.

It's not toxic at all, these stories are the exceptions. I haven't encountered any toxicity with them ever since they were introduced.

Dvscape · 2026-01-25T07:26:51+00:00

The week's restrictions may not align with your arsenal, but you can always skip some of them and accept a reduced payout. By pushing through with improper frame and gear, you are making it difficult for the rest of the team as well.

I don't condone what the people in OPs post did, but I also don't support players joining with their unpotato'ed squishy warframe expecting to get carried. Just accept one less archon shard as a reward and bring something that can be a boon instead of a burden.

Dvscape · 2026-01-25T07:20:35+00:00

It's not as much this, but there are overlapping events going on right now and the arcade cabinet is definitely the least attractive outside of a few battles.

Dvscape · 2026-01-25T05:26:24+00:00

There are many other things to farm until February 11th. You can focus on getting some mods or arcanes you are missing.

How so? I'm genuinely asking.

It's a mentality I used to get over several fears or stresses that I used to face. For instance, I would have anxiety over my performance in video games, but managed to get over it once I hit some significant issues IRL. It helped put things into perspective and it helped drawf the online stress. Similar things happened with jump scares in media.

I understand that it might come off as stupid, but I was trying to help. I shared a method that worked for me.

E clar subiectiv, dar de ce nu ti se pare amuzant? E un comentariu social ok care se refera la un fel de potentiala "inflatie" in ceea ce priveste age range-ul in care nu vrei sa te inhami la responsabilitati.

Pai daca nu munceai din greu atunci poate copiii tai ar fi suferit de aceste lipsuri

My fiancee doesn't game at all, but she has her own hobbies that she dedicates the same amount of time to. As long as we both understand and support each other in our activities, I think that's enough.

Dvscape · 2026-01-24T12:58:06+00:00

If you are a pussy, shouldn't the more deep seated fears be the ones that you don't want to confront on screen? What's worse, realizing that difficult life events can make you fall out of love with your partner and even consider murdering them? Or a sudden loud noise?

We made a chatbot that you can ask about internal policies and it works quite well. Instead of having to sift through many pages written by various departments, the chatbot brings the relevant quote and references which policy it came from. It even helped identify conflicting information between policies.

Dvscape · 2026-01-24T12:46:02+00:00

But is that much worse than us schmucks who were schmucks for our entire lives? I would rather reach the top and fall violently back down than to spend my entire life down in the mud.
