  1. Assuming what DE said is true, the Umbra series will be coming the the global build. Now let say what the Chinese site say is true too. From what I see the founder pack gives you Umbra-Prime-Excal (direct translate). Which means DE and the chinese site is talking about two different frames: Umbra Excal, and Umbra Excal Prime. Which latter is said to be exclusive to the Chinese version (not timed).

    Which to be honest make sense. That's a founder pack, you need to have something that is as exclusive as the original Excal Prime to attract people to buy it.

    In a marketing/PR stand point. DE won't just say "yeah they'll get Umbra Excal Prime as equivelent to the original Excal Prime" that would definitely creat a lot more hate than current. On the Chinese site it won't say the prime weapons are time-exclusive either, because that would lower the look of exclusivity of the founder pack.

    But that's just my theory. Good to hear Umbra stuff is going global. A bit butt hurt about Umbra Excal Prime (if what I think is true)

  2. Too much to read about this Umbra thing. But from what I read from their founder page, the "Umbra Excal" is "國服獨占", which translate into "exclusive to Chinese server" (trust me I'm Chinese). Which seems to be in conflict with what I read so far about what DE had said about time-exclusivity 


     


    Now there's not much issue just base on that. The problem is that this phrase only appears next to Umbra Excal among a list of stuff you get from the Chinese Founder Pack: Prime gears, plat, Design Council chat, founder badge, an Extractor, and your name on a relay.


     


    Question I want to ask is that:


    [1] Let say it is true that Umbra Excal is Chinese Warframe exclusive, but I still want to get the Chines Founder Pack. Is this "Chinese version" separate from the original Warframe? As in I have to download the Chinese launcher, get a different account, buy the pack there, and treat it like PS4/xbox version? (but just happens to be on the same machine)


     


    [2] What about the Asia server (edit: I mean Asia Region) I have been on for so long? Is that the same as this "國服 (Chinese server)" thing? If so how is this going to work? 


     


    P.S. link to the Chinese Founder Pack page http://activity2.cha...pay/presell.jsp , too shock to post image, also a heads up it's in simplified Chinese.


     


    BTW. Just notice the Warframe title on the top is darker (using Dark theme), is it like this all the time or did I missed something?

  4. [Question]

     

    How does Warframe now compare to your original vision of the game? Also Is there any ideas (environment, mechanics, gamplay etc) for Warframe that you would really like to see in the game but just not possible yet, e.g. The engine doesn't support certain elements; the technology is not quite there yet etc.

     

    P.S Good job!

  5. Having trouble uploading screenshot, so here's a link.

    Started a Survival mission in Mercury. I dropped down from a chute at the beginning, then did a role to the control panel. After doing the spinny puzzle thingy, the camera got stuck very close to the Warframe.

     

    I tried /unstuck, tried jumping into a pit, tried changing FoV. All did not work.

  6. Where do you ask question for Devstream again?

     

    If anywhere, I would like to ask:

     

    Question 1: How would you consider Warframe to be out of Beta and officially launch?

     

    Question 2: Looking at Warframe now, is it what you envision from the start? If not what and why the change?

     

    Thanks and keep up the good work!

  7. So far I'm enjoying the new UI, but there're a few place needed to be touch upon, and one of it is the Syndicate offering. 

     

    I think it should show what you have owned, much like the market, so that I don't have to go back and forth from the foundry and the syndicate post. After a while you'll have a lot of sigils and mods, which will be quite a hassle.

     

    P.s. Good job DE! 

  8. So far this new gamemode is fun when the team knows what's going on. But the way it shows the information for the scanner and the drill may need a bit of improvement. First of all, if I need to see which drill I need to give power to, I have to look at the map, find the letter, look down and find the correct drill info, then go there. If there's more than 3 drills (+scanner) at the same time, the long list of number is quite confusing when you are in a battle or a drill is about to get destroyed. Another thing is that it's very often to have two of the same letter (2 "A" drill), which is even more confusing.

     

    I think a better way to show everything is having the letters to show like waypoints (If they are then I must be blind :P). This way I can locate a drill more easily. Secondly having the power level show above the actual drill would help a lot. Since now you could only carry one cell at a time, it's important to plan which drill need it most, so that you don't need to run two marathons to get to another cell. As for the health of the drills, keep them where they are now is fine.

     

    Talking about the power cells. Sometime they would drop in some place that won't see in plain sight (even with the shiny beam of light). Also they usually drop nowhere near a drill (random enemy killed while running between places with cell in hand). I'm thinking something like a small yellow dot on the map would do. Like ally NPCs, but for the objectives, hence yellow.

     

    Also the map is still too big in my opinion, even after Hotfix 14.5.0.

     

    And finally. DE, well done and good job.

  9. Since they didn't reveal the Kubrow companion, I imagine the upcoming event will be capturing wild Kubrows?

     

    If so, would they have different tiers, like the specters.

     

    Cosmetics for the Kubrows are a MUST! 

     

    P.S. I don't think they should call the 'Armor' armor, it's a bit misleading to some degree.

  10. The weapon does come with a default 'stance'. They also mentioned that this default stance would not contain any combos. I am actually pleased that the default did not come in card form, because that would have been another dilution of the drop table.

     

    You got what they said was going to be provided. In fact you got something a bit more efficient in the long run by having a card-less default stance that does not need boosting.

     

    I'm not entirely sure how this isn't what was spoken about, although I understand how the wording may have been vague.

     

     

    • Each weapon comes with a default stance.

       

       

    • This default stance has NO combos.

       

       

    • You will need to find a REAL stance from drops in-game to get combos.

     

     

    I would say this is how it has happened so far. Am I missing something here?

     I think most people misunderstand the meaning of "stance". Like you said, the "default stance" is no combo, just your standard weapon.

     

    If people think that "default stance" is a mod then what happen if you don't put in any mod. They shouldn't have said the phrase default stance, instead just default weapon; no stance. Just like Aura
