Update 17

• Chart: what is and isn't confirmed for U17

• This is subject to change, but this is a rough idea of what to expect

PBR Updates

• Have to re-visit the old textures and essentially re-build them from scratch

• A method of automating the PBR process is being looked into to cut down on the workload

• Hoping that any automation will maintain the quality that we've seen so far

 

Faction Design Guidelines

• Orokin design is still mysterious, but Mynki thinks that they may have grown so detached from their own humanity that they may retreat into some kind of cryo-pod to live

 

Catbrow

• Not U17

• Hoping to release similar to Kubrows; Feral first, then the player version after

Grineer

• No plans at this time for tubemen to be anything other than props

Corpus

• Clothing is a mix of really tacky and awkward, but something they think is opulant

• Alad V pushed the 'weird' envelope with his collar, Nef Anyo was an attempt to surpass that

• Crewman noggle was delayed because their helmet is integrated into their body

Infested

• Infested Crewman is being re-made

Yin Yang Frame

• Many layers of clothing, Steve was worried about the cloth physics, but seems to operating well so far

Pre-Corpus Valkyr

• Hoping to produce more 'deluxe' skins like Proto-Excal, Nemesis Nyx

• Valkyr was selected because Pre-Corpus skin is highly requested and made sense

• There will be equally high-quality skins but possibly more unexpected for more frames

• Mynki spent most of the stream modeling this skin live, hoping for it to be in-game soon

 

Lotus

• Her body has been modeled completely, but she has a large dress-like attachment that is still being modeled

 

NPC's

• Steve has a lot of ideas for friendly NPC's to add to the game

• Mynki is worried about the amount of work required to make so many characters

 

Zephyr

• Mynki designed her, went overboard with the details

• He had many doubts about her design, but hoped there would be people that would appreciate the design

 

Sentients

• Will be seen very soon in-game

• Left a mysterious teaser image

Sorry for the brief overview, most of the stream was simply discussing design elements and inspiration. Not to belittle this, but I like to focus on upcoming updates to the game, so that left very little remaining.

It's the Sentient's drop ships that were teased in the Tomb of the Sentient's Trailer: https://forums.warframe.com/index.php?/topic/488127-sentient-related-mysterious-teaser/?p=5452021

Oh my goddddd you're right, that's definitely it XD

 

Mynki was so sure we'd be stumped, he was like "good luck figuring that out"

 

 

Soo..... did this devstream have any actual gameplay content? or was it just show case some models? Also for love of god get an assistant platoon for mynki.

 

Nah, it was pretty much just models. Rebecca asking who worked on what, which Warframe was the most fun to work on, what was the toughest thing to design, etc. Again, I love the art team in Warframe, but if you're looking for game updates, this stream pretty much had nada.

I was stumped until I did a google image search for Warframe Sentients, I was gonna try to compare some images side by side to try to find patterns, but then that dropship photo was like, the 10th picture and I go: "Oh, there it is."

So in all honestly, this devstream had no reason to exist? cool. Not only we are wasting our time gambling it the void or in my case, gambling in NM rewards, now devstream also were pointless. Only good info there was list on what is coming in U17 and what isnt. Its cool, its cool.

I get the feeling they're just trying to dodge the inevitable U17 questions. They've said before that this period of time - right before a major update but after they've shown off everything they have for it - is the most uncomfortable for them.

 

I'm sure some people that really enjoy the art style in Warframe and like hearing from its artists might enjoy the stream, but I really didn't. Mostly just salty because I was hoping Janice would be on it again.

Yeah, there wasn't much meat to the episode but, hey, they can't all be chock full of info, watching Mynki work was pretty fun though nonetheless, and I think it's cool to get a glimpse of some of the other people that work at DE and shape the game we all enjoy.
