At Tennocon, DE mentioned that they would be making some QOL changes to warframe like pets no longer permanently dying and auto-melee. Are there any other QOL changes that you would like to see added to the game?

    Seeing all level drops when I hit tab without having to scroll, or being able to scroll while holding tab, or having the most recent drop be at the top.

    host migration being more fluid. I have decent internet and wouldnt mind hosting every game I play since other folks tend to have shoddy Internet.

      It was actually pretty nice back when you could opt into being host for Railjack depending on where you started the mission from. Being able to opt-out of being host would also be nice for something like Sanctuary where I’m probably only going to spend a couple rounds and don’t want to force the lobby to migrate just because I’m done leveling my gear.

        Really wish you could set a preference for if you like to host or not. Like you pick between ‘pro hosting’(you get priority for hosting), ‘anti hosting’(you get negative priority for hosting), and neutral.

        If there are multiple people with pro hosting selected, then it picks between them and leaves the antis and neutrals out. If there are no pro hosts in the group it picks neutrals over antis.

          As someone who plays on a potato powered toaster, you have no idea how much I wish I could just opt out of hosting.

      As a Gyre player, killing my 60s and 70s buffs and needing to recast them and build up their timers again due to a host migration can be lethal. Drives me up the wall every time.

        i don’t have enough networking experience to know what’s going on or how to fix it, but surely it can be better than it is.

        i have fiber Internet on a PC that has way more resources than Warframe needs, it would be nice if i could enable a setting that lets my game prepare to take over host if the original host dips.

          The host would have to send you everyone’s state all the time (or everyone would have to send to both you and the host). So it’s not just your resources.

          I bet the game sends out actions and what time they happened, and every now and again it sends everyone’s complete state, and the new host replays all the actions that happened from the most recent checkpoint in order to get the current official game state. So the reason it takes so long is to get everyone reconnected and for the new host to fast forward from the most recent checkpoint until it’s at the current state and (maybe) for everyone to send any more actions that weren’t synced yet.

          And so a reason we miss active skills would be because they aren’t synced.

      Umm… Press K? Not sure if it was the default binding, but there’s a key for showing mission progress

          I usually hit P and type a few letters but I get it, 1) I’m PC, 2) I wouldn’t have to do that if it had a smaller grid cell per item or if it were sorted smarter or something
