You know how Tony Stark can control Ironman suits remotely?

It's kind of like that.

Only they're (mostly) techno-organic clones of dead soldiers and it's infinity years in the future and there's hyper advanced fantasy tech.

Okay, that explains why the designs are so wildly different.

if sonic is the fastest thing alive, how does dr eggman outrun him?

[The Doctor Who]

Easy, he's not technically alive, having replaced most of his body with robotic parts, otherwise he'd have died when each of his machines exploded with him in them.

[Logicron]

And he couldn't resist making himself egg-shaped like a lot of his creations, he used to be a total noodle.

Yeah. The Operator isn't physically inside the frame. There was a human who became the original of each individual warframe, but the frames are cybernetic doctorings of flesh infected with a controlled strain of a living metal mutant collective thing. So they're kind of like remote controlled Eva.

The designs do kind of give off a Beast Machines techno-organic robot mode vibe.

cephelon cy needs to get his priorities in order. why the hell would i look for the tail bracket before the engine? one of these things seems way more important then the other. And why the hell did the tail take 5 argon crystals? hug. 

[Copper Bezel]

I had to do 15. I got refunded when the requirements were dropped, which was great, because I had so many uses for 10 argon crystals before they went bad in a day. (I did not.)

engine cowling is the last part right? RIGHT?! also Excalibur umbra is great and i love his edgy sentient smashing self.

So, y'all hear about the Cooking Mama: Cookstar drama?

 

Game was announced last August, reported to use blockchain for DRM purposes.

 

Game ostensibly came out on 31 March for both Switch and PS4 (there's debate if the PS4 version even came out, but it was advertised) but only a few people found retail copies and the game was pulled from the Switch eshop shortly after release. Soon after there were rumors that the game used blockchain to mine cryptocurrency (considered to be not likely)

 

But NOW the original developers and IP owners of Cooking Mama are reporting that the game was completely unauthorized because they terminated their contract with the publisher due to their blatant breaking of their license agreement on 30 March (the biggest breaking being that they never licensed the publisher to release any Cooking Mama games for the PS4, with other things being the low quality of the game itself and the company not fixing any of the problems the actual IP owners pointed out, despite it being contractually required of them, they just released the game without changes).

 

It's hugging wild that a company seriously thinks they could just release a game without the license lmao.

Yep, it's the last. Glad you're making your way along with the quests then too!

So, y'all hear about the Cooking Mama: Cookstar drama?

  

Poked around Target, they're having a buy 2 get 1 on select games that ends today. There's a Cooking Mama Cookstar game for the Switch? Huh. We're not supposed to touch the displays, so let's look it up online.
Looks like this game isn't supposed to be out or something? I'm tempted to get it just to see what's wrong with it.
But, there wasn't anything else on the sale that looked interesting, and the few people who have gotten it say it's just a bad game. For shame, Mama. For shame.

If that's from the new game, it would fit with how clueless the publisher is.

Weeeeeeell, there's really no way to play Railjack solo, so you're going to want to switch to public, then go to the console in the centerish of the bridge, which is not the hole in the back of the bridge or the control harness at the front of the bridge, to bring up a navigation menu and pick a mission in Earth Proxima, preferably one of the lowest level ones. And then you play the same damn mission over and over again, a space Exterminate with a warframe Sabotage segment inside an enemy asteroid base or ship, getting resources and fixable parts and space mods and space endo to upgrade your railjack and make it not die quite so often. In the process you'll also gain Intrinsic Skill points based on your affinity (XP) gained, which can be spent to progress along one of four skill progressions. I'd go for Engineering 1, Gunnery 2, Tactical 4 as a first set of goals, because those are some of the most necessary skills on offer for a total of 18 points, but since you're hosting with your own railjack, you'll probably end up flying it and might want the first couple of ranks of Piloting even before those. 

 

Of course, you can also join random public missions from your orbiter just by setting to public and clicking the railjack in the upper right corner, such that someone else will be bringing their ship instead. You'll have the same opportunity to progress in all of the same ways, but you won't have to use your own potato ship, you won't have to fly the ship, and you won't actually need anything except the Intrinsics points since all of the resources in railjack are for upgrading your own railjack. 

 

Within the mission, you'll mostly be either flying the ship, attempting to kill enemy fighters either from one of the gunnery stations (don't bother until you have Rank 2 Gunnery) or from archwing (which is honestly the better bet if you have a decently built up archgun unless the railjack has very, very good weapons, but building archguns for railjack is weird too so look into that), killing crew ships by boarding them generally using archwing and destroying their reactors, fighting off boarding parties on the railjack and putting out fires, patching leaks, etc. with the Omni tool in your gear wheel, or doing some basic Sabotage mission stuff within an enemy installation. If you're host, you'll probably be flying the ship from objective to objective and trying not to die while shooting some things, and since you start out with a slow ship and terrible weapons, it'll feel even worse than it does once you have the best possible ship and weapons, which is still godawful. 

 

If you'd rather play solo, you'll have to wait until DE releases the Command intrinsics progression, at an unspecified future date.
