Day One of GO Fest was Fun

August 28, 2023August 26, 2023 Medic 0 Comments go fest, mythical pokemon, pokemon go, shinies, shiny

I bought a ticket for GO Fest. I’d enjoyed the previous GO Fest events in previous years, so I thought I’d enjoy this one. GO Fest 2023 was a mostly simple but fun event. Was it worth a ticket though? Let’s find out. Just like previous GO Fests, day one of GO Fest 2023 was split into four biomes, which rotated throughout the day. The biomes in GO Fest 2023 were based on minerals, and the main theme was crystals and gems. The Pokemon behind GO Fest was the mythical Pokemon Diancie, a rock/fairy Pokemon that, well, makes crystals and… [Continue Reading]

Tennolive 2023 – What Did I Just Watch

August 27, 2023August 26, 2023 Medic 0 Comments tennocon, warframe, warframe 1999

I’m writing this article literally as Tennocon ends. I’ve just watched Tennolive, the big hype event that teases what’s coming up next in Warframe. This year is special because it’s all brand new stuff that we’ve not seen before. It’s all completely and utterly new. And I’m still not really sure what I just watched. Okay so it kinda started off as normal. We see a trailer of some Entrati stuff, with a weird hint of year 2000 technology. Like, computers we use, rather than fancy far-future stuff. Oh and there’s a giant head in the middle of the room.… [Continue Reading]

I wish Daily Pokemon Were More Interesting

August 25, 2023August 14, 2023 Medic 0 Comments pokemon go

A while back, during the height of the Covid pandemic, Niantic added a couple of little features to Pokemon GO, namely the Daily Pokemon Spawn, a daily research task (the green one) and a ton of extra incense. Later on, they added the Daily Incense, which lasts 15 minutes. These are all little daily addons that all players receive, and allowed players to keep up with weekly breakthroughs. However, all these daily things are a bit… dull. Let’s start off with the free daily Pokemon that everyone gets. Denoted with a white circle, you get one spawn a day guaranteed,… [Continue Reading]

Waiting for Cross-Save

August 24, 2023August 13, 2023 Medic 0 Comments cross-save, crossplay, warframe

A while ago, Warframe got Cross-Play. This meant that people from consoles could play with people on PC. This applied to not just XBox and Playstation, but to the Nintendo Switch as well. However, we currently can’t trade with people across platforms. And, most importantly, we are still locked to playing on our respective platforms as well. The big thing we are waiting for is Cross-Save. Cross-Save is a big thing. It will, hopefully, allow us to play on any platform, and freely switch between them. Personally, I want to be able to play on my Nintendo Switch when I… [Continue Reading]

On Prisma Weapons

August 23, 2023August 12, 2023 Medic 0 Comments prisma, warframe, weapon

As of writing, Baro Ki’Teer is offering a new Prisma weapon, the Prisma Ohma. This new weapon is a Tonfa, although it’s not very sharp, it’s much more of a blunt weapon. Either way, the Prisma Ohma is technically an upgrade to the normal Ohma, and has slightly better stats. This is generally the case of most Prisma weapons. What makes Prisma stuff so special? Well, according to Baro Ki’Teer, Prisma gear is covered in “Void-hardened Prisma crystals”. This doesn’t just make weapons shiny, it seems to give them a boost in power as well. The Void is known to… [Continue Reading]

It’s very easy to get lost in Warframe, especially as a newbie. There’s a lot of content to do, and it requires patience. It also requires being careful, especially early on. Here are five things you should avoid as a Warframe newbie. Never buy weapons from the store with Platinum The majority of weapons in Warframe can easily be earned for free. And a large number of them are available in the Warframe store. But you need to be careful though, because buying a weapon from the store is VERY expensive. Instead, make sure you buy the BLUEPRINT of a… [Continue Reading]

This is the little cinematc seen in the codex. Honestly, the poses here look way, way better. In the actual cinematic, they seem weirdly unnatural.

5 Basic Things a Newbie Should Do in Warframe

August 21, 2023August 10, 2023 Medic 0 Comments guide, newbie, suggestion, warframe

Being a newbie in Warframe is difficult. There’s so much to do, so many things flashing at you, so many urgent things. Once you’ve gotten past Vor’s Prize, you’re basically left to your own devices, in a game that feels very unfamiliar. Luckily, there are plenty of things a newbie can do to get themselves started.

You also unlock various quests as you travel across the star chart. This process is somewhat slow, but you… [Continue Reading]

On Nearly Perfect Pokemon

August 20, 2023August 9, 2023 Medic 0 Comments pokemon, pokemon go

When it comes to catching good Pokemon, there’s always a hope that you’ll get a Pokemon with 100% IVs. Getting a Perfect Pokemon is a rare thing, although there are certain ways to increase your chances. These ways include purifying Pokemon, opening research and trading Pokemon, especially with lucky trades. However, the chances are still very low, and even with these options, it’s unlikely you’ll get a hundo. Well, unless you purify a shadow Pokemon with stats at 13 or higher. But you often don’t want to purify Pokemon as shadow Pokemon are stronger. But there are some Pokemon that… [Continue Reading]

August 19, 2023August 19, 2023 aabicus 1 Comment articles, celebration, history, milestone, SPUF, The Daily SPUF, writing

Phovos’ Nightwave critique yesterday clocked out 10 years of articles on The Daily SPUF! That’s right, on August 18 2013 we published our first article, a rant about Team Fortress 2’s Half-Zatoichi. Over the past decade since, we have published a new article every day without fail (except once), covering a huge swathe of games and topics from all across the Steamosphere and beyond, and we couldn’t have done it without each and every one of you who read, commented on, or submitted articles over the past 3,652 days. In order to commemorate the occasion, I wanted to write another… [Continue Reading]

How I’d Improve Nightwave

August 18, 2023August 7, 2023 Medic 0 Comments nightwave, warframe

Nightwave is Warframe’s equivalent of a season pass. Do each week’s challenges and earn standing towards your next rank. It’s not the same as a normal season pass though, as it is completely free and has no ‘premium track’ on it. Whether you’re MR0 or MR33, whether you’ve spent hundreds or nothing at all on Warframe, you can jump into Nightwave, do some missions and get rewarded. However, there are some things that we could have to improve Nightwave. Here’s how I’d do it. More Warframe and Weapon slots We do get some very nice freebies in Nightwave’s rewards, but… [Continue Reading]
