Patriarch Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 (edited) Ok, was reading https://forums.warframe.com/index.php?/topic/96191-warframe-sea-by-iahgames/] another thread about Warframe porting to iahgames, which I think is a good idea, since Steam hasn't really reached out to some asian countries (probably due to piracy). However, the mmo market is exceptional over there. Look at LoL or DragonNest over there. But enough of that, what I'm curious about is why signing up over there earns them this unique Braton, why are current players not allowed to grab this? Is it just a skin? Or a whole other version of the Braton? While it says skin, we've seen the BV already, and know that it is possible its a whole extra weapon. I know we can get get it via signing up with them, but how can we get it on our actual accounts? Article at hand: https://www.iahgames.com/warframe/docs/post/11558613 Edit: Seems the warframe webpage at iahgames has been removed?

Alighierian Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 (edited) they say it's just a skin. and it's something special for those people. we already had plenty of special stuff and it'll probably stay unique for them, so players get some incencitive to sign up there Edited August 16, 2013 by Alighierian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shifty_Shuffler Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Well, it doesn't sound like a skin, more like a totally new variant of he Braton :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodHaven Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I had a musician explain this to me, games, CD's all that kind of stuff costs a lot more to download legally then to just pirate in asia. So to make sure their masses actually buy into things almost all "Asian" content is given exclusive things such as songs or in-game weapons. Thats why Protest the hero, Bullet for my valentine, etc. . .All have song that only the japanese got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cybernetix Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Hoping that it is just a skin. If it's got different stats that are distributor-locked then we're going to be in for one hell of a mess when more people catch wind of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hayden11121 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 It's just a skin, who cares? It doesn't change the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patriarch Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 Well, it doesn't sound like a skin, more like a totally new variant of he Braton :( The way they call it custom Braton gives it that feel. Though I think they said skin as well somewhere. I might sign up just to see. Sounds like bullS#&$.And its not even good photoshoped. Do you mean the quality of the product is as bad as a poorly done photoshop job? Or that its fake? Considering its on a legit gaming website, i doubt its fake.

0Pinger Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 (edited) I assume this will end up in the market for 75 plat eventually as its just a skin edit: but who wants a weapon to look like a paint baller, in neon orange. On second thoughts DeSteve might. Edited August 16, 2013 by 0Pinger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SynisterDoom Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 i smell a S#&$storm brewing. and while we're at it. theres alot of inconsistencies with Distributors. G1 said that you could join the corpus or grineer. and Steam says we're ninja bots. which we might be so thats no biggie. but im pretty damn sure my alligiences are nice and alligned with only the Tenno. Plus that "exclusive Braton" will probably be some technicality. like a braton that has the default colour gold with a pottaoe on it already.

DiabolusUrsus Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 If it was a weapon and not a skin you'd think it'd have to be added to the pool of weapons to be balanced. I doubt they'd release region-specific equipment, as they already have their hands full balancing the stuff everybody has access to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rengakun Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 So...it's a South-East Asian Steam Clone? YFW I'm South-East Asian and actually buys from Steam. YFW only Plebs care about crappy MMOs in SEA. (You know what? I sound like an &#! saying Pleb, so I'll rephrase it: Only people who are new to gaming care about generic MMOs here.) MFW "IAHGames" seems very unknown. MFW Singapore already has S#&$ tons of services like these. MFW all the other things they have are cheap Chinese knockoffs. I'm new to this 'Y/MFW' thing. Am I doing it right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patriarch Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 haha it does look like a paintball gun, and as said earlier, if its a skin, dont care about it. Just as long as its not an actual new braton. @Renga, I got no clue what YFW and MFW mean :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinderain Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 (edited) So...it's a South-East Asian Steam Clone? Lol wat? They're just a game portal. They don't have some distribution platform. Haven't you seen MMO portals before? There are tons of them for every corner of the world. Edited August 16, 2013 by FatalX7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
