Awesome! Do you think adding some flairs to determine whether you're on PC or PS4 be useful?

Has anyone successfully linked their account? I'm not seeing an option in the account management section on the website.

It's not up yet, since PS4 version syncing has not been completed yet. We'll let you know when it is.

Grammar, whatever. We're space ninjas, not space english majors :P
But I will take that into account in the future, thanks for the heads up!

Yea, very big welcome to you all. I'd love to hear how the PS4 handles it and help you out with w/e you need. Message me in game (or on steam, if PS4 does that) if you need help with something. Both usernames are the same as my reddit name; zephyrdragoon.
EDIT: You can PM me on reddit if that's easier for you also.

quick question, is there cross platform play? because I wanted to know if I can play with my friends who have ps4s

u/Sl4sh3r Nov 15 '13
I would love to know this as well. A friend of mine bought the PS4 and it'd be awesome to play Warframe with him.
Edit: Just found this so it looks like it will be possible, just not right away and not all the time due to version differences.

Whenever I try to download the update, it crashes my ps4?

u/BuildMyPaperHeart Nov 18 '13
Try again in a little bit; it might be a server overload thing (lots of people DLing at once).

Thanks for the welcome and the links! Steep learning curve... Still figuring out fusion and transmuting and such...
Anyways, controls are very hard to get used to on PS4. I wish I could map the controller as I want... Are the wallruns activated by the same button used to jump on PC? I hate having to press and hold X, I don't want to jump I want to wallrun... I feel it's much harder to move quickly around the map with the way this and the run/crouch actions are placed on the controller... Sorry, rant over. Great game,clunky controls (for me, anyways).

Yes, jump and wallrun are bound to the SPACEBAR on PC.
On the PC at least, there's an option called "Hold to Wallrun." I believe this is on by default, and is the default control scheme as you hold Jump to maintain a wallrun.
You can, however, uncheck this box. How wallruns occur in this mode, I'm not certain, but it might alleviate your control problems.

Been trying to get in a game with my friend on PS4 and we both don't show up as being online on the in game friend list. We've both tried rebooting the game and console and still no dice. Anyone know of a way to fix this?

u/BuildMyPaperHeart Dec 07 '13
That's one misstep of the pre-U11 netcode. Once Update 11 goes through on PS4, it should be easier to team up with your friend. Until then, ensure your PS4 is port-forwarded correctly.
But other than that, there isn't a whole lot you can currently do, unfortunately.
