Can someone confirm if it requires an online subscription?

DO I NEED A NINTENDO SWITCH ONLINE SUBSCRIPTION TO PLAY?

Nope - freely enjoy our free game!

For information on the Nintendo Switch Online service, please visit https://www.nintendo.com/switch/online-service/.

your mileage may vary, i don't know if you need to pay to play coop, but i'd assume not if you can still play stuff like fortnite for free

I fond it funny that people are shocked that this game can run on a Switch. I run this game on a Windows tablet with two gigs of RAM. I had no doubt in my mind that the Switch was capable of this fun game. Maybe I should just go on Twitter, list all the games I can run on my tablet and see if developers would port to Switch. I'd enjoy a nice Nintendo version of Mafia 2 lol.

The game is "super free". It's one of the few P2P games that limits micro transactions to things that would not hinder in game progress.

i have 1000 hours on steam, i was referencing to how on the xbox one you need to pay for gold to access the dojo, relays, public lobbies, etc.

on another note, this port is a mess, 30fps, 30hz input polling, up to 500ms input lag, late game kills the FPS hard.... as much as i love warframe, this port is nearly unplayable, my tablet only runs the game at like 20fps on lowest settings and it's still more playable... wtf

Weird flex, but ok.

Why the hell am I not surprised? Doom suffered badly in some areas. So, Warframe suffering in its most hectic state isn't a shock, in the slightest. At least it's free, though.. and actually on the system. There's also the chance that it can only improve from here on out. Fortnite runs better now than it did on release.

i edited my reply to add more context than just a flex, i just woke up so i keep forgetting details

on warframe, literally anything can be "hectic", from an earth exterminate mission to a 30 minute survival mission on eris, and considering the game is made to be played with other people, if the game drops to unplayable levels on solo, they completely fucked up when it comes to co-op gameplay.... here's hoping they actually do fix it, like at the very least go 30fps/ 60hz input polling, like nintendo does with their 30fps games[/QUOTE]

acer one 10, forget the exact model but it's got an atom x5 -8350, 4gb ram and an incredibly unstable microSD port(which is where the game ran from)

I swear, Acer should start pumping out more Windows tablets. I use an Acer Iconia 8 W4

https://gbatemp.net/threads/my-steamtendo-switch.499374/

This tablet is the reason why I'm just not in a rush to play Paladins and Warframe on Switch. Especially when there is no progress sharing between platforms. Now Fortnite... Well that's another story. Since this damn tab only allows me to install Win 10 32bit I'm pretty limited in what I can do.

yeah, aside from being extremely defective (constant bios crashes, microsd card disconnects itself about 30 times a day, sometimes i have to hold the power button for 5 minutes before it turns on, sometimes it won't even charge, the screen shits itself depending on what game is played in fullscreen), it's a really good tablet, and a definite upgrade from the insignia tablet i had before, which had an atom x5-z8300 and 2gb ram. but this is getting offtopic

Has anyone tried migrating their Windows profile to Switch? Are you still able to continue your Windows progress after migration on your Windows machine? At this point I can only hope to be the "same person" on both platforms but with my progress forked from a certain point.

i migrated, almost everything transferred over, the stuff that didn't transfer was boosters, platinum and any fortuna content (however my resources and blueprints transferred, they just have a broken name and recipe)
