  1. I just realize that the Cetus' colony name is an Easter Egg-ish (at least for me):

    It is unclear to which Tau System the Sentients were sent by the Orokin (in astronomy the stars of a constellation are named using the Greek alphabet, with the visually brightest being usually "alpha" and going downward in the scale; Tau being he 19th letter of the Greek alphabet, so any constellation with 19 stars or more will have -potentially- a Tau Star with a consequential Tau System).

    It has being speculated for quite a long time that the Tau System mentioned in the Warframe lore is Tau Ceti, because there has been evidence of possibly five planets orbiting Tau Ceti, with two of these being potentially in the habitable zone. Now Tau Ceti is located in the Cetus Constellation (the whale constellation), hence the name Tau Ceti (Tau star at Cetus).   :community:

    I love with all my heart when DE is this level of nerd :nerd:

  3. What if you consider going camouflaged rather than invisible? widely speaking, Invisibility is 100% protection but is kind of dull... what if you can have some chameleon-like effect that reduces visibility by a percentage like the Rakta Dark Dagger.

    I love the idea of being able to make a support drone, maybe all he can make are drones (one for boosting allies shields -similar to the sentinels-, one for healing when not under attack, one for increasing "focus" i.e. crit chance)....

    It looks much better =]

    for a very long time, six months almost, using melee weapons just didn't feel satisfying. No matter what i used, things just were not that fun. The screen was a blurry mess.

    eventually, though, something made me, out of curiosity, switch out all my +speed melee mods for things like status, damage, or other utility.

    i am surprised to say that melee feels a lot more enjoyable. While animations are indeed slower, every swing hits like a gold-plated truck, and the animation _not_ being utterly $&*&*#(%&ly fast actualy allows me to switch up combos and appreciate the flowing motion. 

    are speed mods REALLY necessary? An Arca Triton or a Fragor Prime need speed, yes, but things like a destreza, or a broken war, or the guandao... I don't know. They just feel a lot better like this.

    it feels to me that speed mods are more of a bandaid to slow melee weapons than the be all end all necessity for all melee builds.

    what are your views on this?

    It is all about two things:

    1. The most important one, that you find the way of playing that results truly enjoyable and rewarding for you, a lot of people won't change the fun coming from a rocket launcher or the overpowered sensation coming from a well moded Lenz even with the risk of self-killing. 

    2. Balance, as you said, there are weapons for which speed is good and collaborates for the enjoyable experience (Titron, Fragor, etc) an others for which is just an extra boost since in general more speed means more hits and therefore more damage and status chance per attack. 

    In my case, I have a frenzy build for my beloved Silva & Aegis that transforms me into a pirouette-spin dancer-shield thrower  frame at full speed (hitting Volt's 2 right now lul).

    I'm not familiar with a lot of the current warframe but I tried to base the overall idea on not being overpowered so it's abilities are similar to a lot.of current abilities. 

     

    What suggestions do you have to both differentiate this frame from others and keep it fun to play?

    I think it is much better if you go wild even when you OP the frame, then you can reduce it and adapt it, a super cool OP ability can be nerfed simply by reducing duration or range and so forth... so you'll have a lot more liberty to experiment and let your concept grow and improve =]

    I read up on Vouban, you're right. It has a great minelayer ability so the bag if tricks here will need to be changed. 

    Investing time in getting to know the generalities of the current frames is a good idea for both inspiration and getting familiar with how the abilities work (basically factors as duration, range, DOT, AOE, status, etc.).

    Vauban is an engineer-themed frame, this can be more an artificer, a maker of inventions and such who knows, maybe it can have a counter similar to Nidus' mutation for collecting pieces and spare parts for killing foes which can later be transformed into inventions =]

    Hi Danielle sorry to bother again but Technicly its there but calavera is probably not displaying correctly in the white forum theme.

    We need this fixed for when the Calavera pack returns this autumn, because it is returning, right? Right? Right? (I really want it) :]

    3.  I noticed in the Tennolive Demo that Arch guns were not being used when Rebecca deployed her Archwing in Eidalon.  It seemed to be a Regular Primary gun (Latron if I'm not mistaken?).  Will we be able to use Archguns / Archwing abilities in Eidolon, or will Archwings mainly serve as a means of faster transportation accross Eidolon.
     

    This!

  8. Even when the concept as described reminds me a lot of Vauban, the theme is really cool; maybe you can polish it by better defining it... Actually the idea of a Constructor, Trinketer or an Artificer Frame is nice... The abilities must be more clearly differentiated from other Frame's abilities; the hook is Valkyr's Rip Line and the Mine/Trap are quite Vauban's Minelayer, since this is an artificer more than an engineer maybe we can have more fun with more trinkets coming out of the bag... Command and Control might also become a single ability because are quite similar to each other, and greater differentiation from Nyx's ability  might be required. Overload is quite similar to Volt/Oberon with the Electricity/Radiation damage so it might be a good idea to rethink how to make it remarkable.

  9. 1. Regarding Focus, is the progress we already have going to be affected by any change applied to the Operator's mechanics as result of the implementation of PoE? Are we going to receive any benefit from the effort we already applied?.

    2. During the PAX West interview with PC Gamer comments were made regarding the Operator becoming a "Warrior", apparently this is going to be a choice (?) for the player after completing the Second Dream Quest; How is this going to be implemented for those of us who already completed the Quest? What becoming a "Warrior" actually implies? Weapons? Cosmetics?

    3. Are the Eidolon truly the Sentients-Self or are more like proxies (Since Eidolon is the greek word for idol I've always assumed that the Eidolons are not the Sentients, but comments are somehow misleading on this regard).

    4. During the implementation of PoE are we going to have implementations to other core mechanics of the game related to the PoE game style (i.e. guns mechanics particularly sniper, ambush tactics, camouflage -different from invisibility-;  Can we take our companions into PoE?; Warframe ability limitations, specifically those that have AOE and DOT like Ember's WoF, Trinity's Blessing *imagine that my teammate is hundred meters far from me because of our dumb strategy :] *; how high you can go with your Archwing? Are new Archwing specifically anti-Eidolon going to be implemented?).

    5. Are we going to know more about the history and transition of Natah to Lotus? Maybe some tokens scattered around the PoE? =D

    6. Whatever you can share with us about Opal (a.k.a. glass frame lul)

    Mesa is one of the only Frames I can't play with aswell somehow xD
    And one of the few Frames I know that I won't do an Humaniced Artwork out of it yet, cause Mesa is way to human already it's hard to make something new out of it (as long as it's not an compilation of the femal Frames maybe .... 
    And Atlas, I guess I couldn't do any Artwork of him at the current situation without doing Trump references ... and that's somthing I won't do 

    Finally.. I won't feel alone anymore, I also have some issues with Mesa... before myriads of mesa fan boys/girls start bashing us... I'm happy to find kindred Tenno souls... :]

    I use the left-hip holster on the Arca Titron so it doesn't clip through the Arca Plasmor when both are holstered... I logged in today and ohey, the Titron's handle-battery is like up next to my head!

     

    Give...us...the option to shorten it again...pretty please! A skin, maybe?

    Certainly not Mjolnir anymore =^/ 

    A short-handle hammer skin would be awesome, make our Mjolnir short again!

    I played Chains of Harrow already, so no worries about spoiling me.

    So this is just another bug...  I had 2 of these rooms in that mission, same text in both, next mission same room again, same text again, so its not like something got triggered accidentally. It just hasn't been removed.

    Yes, it looks like a bug...

    I've noticed a lot of changes recently that are to try and make the game more "new player friendly". So my opinion on this is that these items shouldn't just not show up, but appear like normal and instead are locked with a message saying something like "this item is restricted until you complete the Second Dream quest".

    That way, any new players that see these items are given another incentive to progress further, rather than having it all hidden and them not finding out until they finish the quest. It'd give them more motivation you know?

    As a relatively new player I hugely appreciate DE's efforts in trying to avoid spoilers related to the nature of the Operator as revealed by the Second Dream quest because I hugely enjoyed that Quest and I still reflect about the nature and future of the events disclosed. Thanks DE :]

    Yeah I'm ... not a big fan of the Canopic, I do really like the Anubis though! No updates for the next few days though sorry, I'm getting married this friday to @NegusAlmighty (and then we'll catch the Plains of Eidolon stream afterwards)

    No way, seriously? That's such a momentous & joyful occasion, Tenno Wedding :heart: :heart:

    I seriously hope @NegusAlmighty doesn't look like Nef Anyo tho, although without his suit Nef Anyo looks kind of handsome :surprised:... now I'm conflicted lol... yet still happy for you two :community:

    PS: I'll still be waiting for my Inaros helmet :]

    oh ... wow it works now :O

    I changed glyphs like a half year ago but it didn't show on the forum. So just now I changed it from Trinity to Steel Meridian, but instead of logging out/in on my default browser, I logged in another browser just to try it out. Then logged in my default browser and now it shows my new glyph.

    YAY!

    Lots of forum magic from Danielle :community:

    If I'm not mistaken Arca titron's description has a grammar error:

    CrLXLYh.jpg?1

     

    yeNrdvL.jpg?1

     

    Shouldn't it say either "unleashed on slam attack" or "unleashed with slam attacks" or even "unleashed on or with slam attacks".

    Funny how they looked into fixing the model on the weapon but still didn't see the error. Sorry for being a grammar Nazi btw 

    I tend to agree with the way how [DE] wrote the description; the grammar structure might not be as wrong as it looks like if we consider "unleashed on" as a sort of compound expression, then the effect is "unleashed on[upon] [someone, someplace]" "with [after] slam attacks". Let's see what the experts say :heart:
