The new Flash Card exercises have be some of the most poorly designed exercises yet.
I have never uttered "that's what I said!" so many times.
This is definitely true when it's a short word.

Then, it only accepts a single option for a word, when there may be multiple available. If it was a word from the current lesson it could be forgivable, but I have had multiple where it wasn't.
For instance, I'm doing French. Flash card said "time". I checked with my French friend which word they'd have said, and they agreed on my choice of 'temps'. Only 'fois' was accepted.
It also can't cope with different gendered options.

There is no ability to skip them without failing the exercise, whic

I don't know if this was something tutorialised or not - I don't remember it... - but I figure I should share a bit of info I just found out. Since, I never feel I'm unique enough to be the only one facing an issue, and others will definitely have missed this too.

When you bring up the Tools (with T by default), if you Right Click on a tool, you can add it to the action bar slots (accessed via 5 to 8).

Using the grinder was a pain, because there was nothing in my inventory for it, and clicking the action bar didn't bring up anything that allowed me to add it from there. (Another possibly QoL improvement?). So, I was constantly hitting T then manually selecting it.
Not once did I thin

3 major ones for me, after about 17 hours game time...

• the ability to add a repair target to the tasks (I currently have so many scribbled lists of materials, from previous repairings);
• middle click (or something) an existing construct and let us drop another. For instance, select a Diesel tank and drop down another;
• and subsequently add missing materials to the build queue from the hologram.

Anyone got others?

Necramechs are no longer challenging.
I saw someone else briefly mention this in a comment, but have experienced this myself now.
I don't remember seeing anything in the patch notes, so thought I'd share.

Necramechs no longer seem to have weakspots, so the arms don't fall off.
But, you can just shoot them anywhere. It does not matter. They will die.

Context: I semi-regularly do a free to play run through, to remind myself of challenges new players can face. I rarely go above MR8 on them

When I got the the necramech grind the last time, around 6 months ago, I remember needing to make good use of the 2 fire modes of a Fulmin, to be able to accurately blow the arms off with full au

Warning: Spoilers from The New War.

Open with a cinematic (in-game or otherwise) of the Zariman sitting in a fold, half in the void.
Camera floating through some of its corridors, where you can hear screams and yelling. There could be half audible voice lines from Holdfast people. These voices won't mean anything to new players, but be little fun things for existing ones.
Cuts into the scene from The New War, where we're barricaded in the room, we choose how we look, and it goes to "Lose your light? Here, you can take mine". And gives a new player an immediate "WTF?" of looking at themselves. We get the offer of "I can save them. All of them" and... we refuse.
At that point, it cuts t

Basically, not much more to this than the title.

I've started to try and make more use of them recently, but I'm trying to think of good ways to put them to use effectively. So, I thought I'd poll r/warframe for ideas. And, it could help others in the process, by seeing the value in them, or improving how they already use them.

Currently, I've been trying to put them as 'purpose' type loadouts, or vague enemy type configs (like, if they're weak to corrosive vs viral). But are there better ideas out there?

Or, do you just not use them at all?

I've been replaying through the early game on the Xbox - with a friend I introduced - compared to the PC account I use most. And one of the things I've noticed even more, is that some quests need to not be available so early on, particularly from a new player perspective. Because if you hit sudden brick-walls in difficulty, table flips can occur
The reason for this being that the gear and levels a player can have when they're made available is just far, far lower than is suitable.

As such, they should have extra prerequisites added to them to help this.

First of, yes they are all doable if you have the experience and/or skill. And that you don't need to see a quest through to the end j

Over the last year, I've purchased a reasonable amount of Transformers - almost entirely WFC and SS86 have been my choices - and while I've found the vast majority of them brilliant (especially when comparing them to the original G1 toys they've been based on), there have definitely been a few that have given me a touch of buyer's remorse.

So, it makes me wonder what purchases people here in r/transformers have made that they've been very disappointed in. And that have brought you a lot of joy?
And remember, no arguments please! People can be disappointed in toys that you may personally love!

For me though, the disappointment has been Skylinx. So much about the shuttle is just way too

So, how long until the first artist samples the start to this, do we all think?

Time. Space. Reality. It's more than a linear path. It's a prism of endless possibility, where a single choice can branch out into infinite realities, creating alternate worlds from the ones you know.
I am the Watcher. I am your guide through these vast new realities.
Follow me, and ponder the question... What If?

I mean, that just screams out to be used in songs :D

I've largely aimed to go in blind to Shadowlands, not reading up on what is going to happen in it, but a common annoyance I've had in previous expansions is how much near essential lore set between the end of the previous expansion and the start of the new one, to follow the story clearly, has been contained within novels or other sources.
I also count pre-patch events that are lore filled, when they are no longer available after the expansion drops...

So, without giving spoilers for Shadowlands itself, what lore is there to currently find and digest?
There's the obvious short story videos about the covenants, but what else is there that is not also going to be revealed in game, and wil

So, there is an utter wealth of information out there regarding the kick and the bassline, but something - as a newbie to electronic production - I'm struggling to find good info on is the snare.

So, I don't care if it's about samples or synth'd. Single sound or multiple layers.
What resources have people found - or can even just anecdotally share - out there?

Because it's just far too easy (it feels) to make it sound like you let Lars Ulrich design your snare...

edit: since this is an attempt at a newbie resource, if you're giving advice, could I request that a little detail about the why and hows are also given?
For example, if advice of 'EQing is key' is given, please explain what

Now, I know the answer is likely "practice and experience", but I'm getting frustrated with that slappy bass sound when you're not synced up properly, and trying to figure out how the hell you 'just know' which direction you need to nudge a track.
I don't like that I have to effectively trial and error it.
So, I spent about 20-30 mins last night with a couple of tracks, one with the bass EQ'd down (as if I'd be bringing the track in normally), deliberately sliding them out of sync, one way and then the other.
My goal, to see if I could determine the difference of the bass being on either side, but I just couldn't.
In my logical brain, there would be a difference between a low EQ'd ba

This is pretty much just a small rant, but feel that others may at least sympathise?
I shall note: I am enjoying the game, just getting frustrated with this one aspect...

I'm about 100+ hours into my current game (out of 120+ total). I've been in space for over half of that time. I feel way too invested in what I've done to start over, but the RNGesus is annoying the hell out of me, that I may just rage quit this save and admin cheese in some stuff into a new generated system.
I have spent hours mapping the asteroids around me - I'm up to a 30k radius, and I've not found a single one with Uranium.
I've got lots of platinum. I've got a good amount of magnesium. Butt loads of Silver a
