Overview

The creator explains the contents of a new hotfix for the game Warframe. He begins by announcing the free items (Kuva and Forma) all players will receive, then details the game-wide balance changes that prompted this compensation, including the new ammo efficiency cap and the removal of Riven disposition. He concludes by focusing on a major nerf to the 'Acid Shells' augment, explaining how it used to work with certain Warframes to create a recursive explosion effect and showing gameplay footage to illustrate the change.
