    Notice the background turns to void when you are possessed.

    It seems most likely that the void does indeed have a character, or at least appears to have a character due to all of the minds it has encountered and [absorbed?]. Seeing how it only appeared after you broke through your own mental blocks, it could be a part of you, so not necessarily someone else. Alternatively, it could just be that the restoration of your full void powers caught the void character's attention. Regardless, knowing that it is mimicking your father, someone who should be dead, the psychological horror potential is definitely there.

    Whenever a sinister character is revealed I can't help but wonder what their goals are. I can really only assume Hunhow and Stalker want revenge (though that conclusion isn't really satisfying), but this void character is definitely a big question mark.

     

    Just finished the quest and I get the same vibe... the Void is powerfull and misterious, Teshin said that.

    Margulis put Zariman children to sleep because of strange voices. To protect them from going mad.

    Adults of Zariman gone mad. Our father felt that sth watched us in the Void.

    Void is now part of us, our power, our curse.

    The Void consumes ppls' minds. That's why this other consciousness said "kiddo" word that our father used to adress us.

    Things are becoming more and more interesting. This time not only Hunhow and the Shadow are our main enemies but something omnious and mysterious within us. :)
    I can't stop myself from feeling that similiarity to Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones story. We will see... 2017 show us what is waiting for us.

    PSA & Notices:

     

    There is currently a bug with The Jordas Verdict which is making it unplayable. We are working on a fix for approx. Monday deployment.

    Good thing I haven't started this raid yet, wanted to play it today but I guess I would only rage myself to death if it's unplayable. Good to know in advance I should wait till monday, thanks.

  3. Event isn't that hard but it takes time to kill 25 of them with i.e health drain modifier and not to die miserably while trying to dish out dmg on some more tanky Executioners. That's why ppl play Ash/Valkyr to just finish this up quickly.

    Moreover, it's almost impossible to finish the hard mode with normal tier weapons. By normal tier I mean non-endgame/meta weaponry. Duh! Even my overpowered Boltor Prime had some problems with killing some more durable ones, but yet I am very casual player so my equipement is limited.

    Reasonable way to fight them was only melee for me but with health drain modifier and some hard dmg from executioners melee only was a lottery ... either me or them before I get 1.5x combo/ or crit.

    We'll see how it goes after above mentioned changes! :3

  4.  I'd like to adress some points discussed here (sorry for no quotes coz thing I'd have to quote are too long and I am too lazy). 

    The Sentients are no normal machines/drones - so far, all known Sentients are Hunhow and Natah, rest are still to be awakened or sth (as far as I remember). What we fight on Moon tileset are Hunhow's "shards", parts of his core or just replicas ( Sentients can divide/replicate as we know from Crewman Synthesis). Sentients are capable of having feelings what was mentioned here before, shards cannot ... but who said shards can't grow, evolve? Natah could be his shard that evolved into ... well uhh Natah, thus the name (or somehow was a being born from Hunhow's essence, we don't know the nature of the Sentients yet). Ok, my intro blabbering done! 

    Natah is a full-homegrown Sentient being with a goal to accomplish in Sol system. She and by "she" I mean her "core", coz what we saw as Sentients always appear with strange forms called their "skeletons" or sth like that. So, her core/heart merged with Margulis' body. Ok, strange theory but look at our Lotus, she has a human form(or Orokin as you like to call it), human body but her helmet on the other hand... yes, her helmet looks strange, as if other being was there inside her head, instead of her brain. I believe it's safe to theorize that Natah's core merged with Marguli's body still in possesion of it's own brain and this mix brought forth our beloved Lotus. Ta dah! 

    How Margulis' body was preserved long enough without brain dmg to merge with Natah? Orokin had hybernation maybe, duh. 
    Why Natah merged with Margulis' body? Not sure, but I can guess it was to get more knowledge about the Tenno. 
    Does Lotus share Margulis' memories? I believe yes, since she knew how much Margie did for us and how she cared about us (she tells us this at the end of 2nd dream). Although, I don't know if Lotus is the mix of Natah/Margie consciousnesses or is it just transformed Natah with Margie memories. 

    Why she helps us? Well, we all know the answer, Natah wanted children, Margie loved us, Lotus is the mix, everyone's happy. 


    What I want to know more than Lotus personality is:
    how many other big Sentients beside Hunhow are there?
    do they have some sort of a hierarchy or are they like ... all equal?


    Void. This is a bit tricky thing to theorize. From what I read here so far, the "Heaven" theory fits most to it's nature. However, we could also call it some sort of Astral dimension and the so called "voices" Tenno and Vor could hear, astral beings that live outside of boundaries of our 3 dimensions, outside of boundaries of time and space (yeah, Interstellar much). It could also be some sort of Universe's core/heart that connects all systems of this universe, thus the voices are just the echos that come across from other stellar systems but it's again my irrational blabbering. 



    Warframes. Well it also beats me. Something about them must be Infested/ Infestation based. Tenno/Operators have Void powers but it makes them almost paralyzed (they can't walk either due to excessive power affecting their muscles/neurons or long millenia of hybernation, in both cases it coul lead to muscle hypotrophy/atrophy). 
    Warframes are biomechanical. They have to have organic element in them since from what I believe Tenno can Transfer their consciousness/power only to organic beings. Mechanical element helps to direct the Void power into specific powers (like ice, fire etc) and inhibits/stops futher grow of Infestation. Moreover, Infestation affected cells replicate like a tumour, which may also be the reason coz using of Void powers could destroy the cells each time we use powers, thus they replicate again and by this way the organic element of Warframes can regenerate it's health. I can't believe how crazy theories I can make. 

    Guess it's enough of text for now, damm it's long. I can believe myslef how much of a lore-fanboy I can become sometimes.

    An idea i've had is that you would go between ships in your archwing, much how in the sea lab missions you go underwater to go from sealab to sealab in your archwing. And on the corpus ships when the windows break, you can actually get sucked into space and ordis would have to deploy the archwing for you.

    Sounds sweet but .... DE. Guess we will get that but in a year or two. :/

    If we're going to discuss a numerical schema for archwing... I'd suggest that we're currently at 0.6 (arguable)

    1.0 would lead one to believe that it's a fully fleshed out system that has been designed to at least some level of completion. I don't feel the current system reaches that threshold.

    Sad but true :/ 

    The point Archwing is now is just miserable. Such an amazing idea for the game mode, but such a poor execution. 

    More archwing maps, mission types, archwings, arch-weps, enemy diversity/new enemy types - all of  these we need, at least for now.

     Welcome to Beta

    Despite the fact that our "beta" lasts for nice couple of years now ... so long that most of  us consider this "beta" version like full-fledged version of the game. :3 

    Then it would be nice to have desert-like Mars tileset. 

  8. Hej hoo!
    Widzę większość pisze posty z prośbą o rekrutację według ustalonego wzorca, a więc ...

    Imię: Krystian

    Wiek: powyżej lat 20 coraz mniej mam ochotę dzielić się ze światem jaki jestem stary ale cóż .. 22 dochodzi (tylko szzzzz!)

    Nick: darkhades2012 - no ale przecież ten sam jest na forum jakby co :P
    Ranga: 13 (my happy number T.T )

    Warframe: tak, jak najbardziej gram. :3

    Nie wiem ile mam przegranych godzin, ale gram od początku open bety z przerwami na maturę/ aktualnie studia( II rok także już bym ze 3 lata wyliczył, nawet więcej mojej obecności w grze) . Gram w wolnych chwilach czyli co 2 tyg. wracam do domciu, wbijam na PC i no-lajfie przez weekendzik czyli piateczek/sobota. Jeżeli nie przeszkadza moja obecność w klanie, a raczej częściej nieobecność przerywana dość aktywnym gamingiem co 2 tyg. (tak jak pisałem wyżej) to proszę o przyjęcie.

    PS> Oczywiście do pomocy jestem chętny, a jeszcze chętniejszy do wspólnej rozgrywki, śledzę nowinki ze świata Warframe non-stop nawet jak nie gram także jakąś wiedzę mam o aktualnym stanie/buildzie gry.

  9. We only know the nature of TENNO so far. 

    We don't know the nature of WARFRAMES yet or at least not as much as we would want to. Only info we have so far is that 'Frames are puppets for the TENNO power/consciousness. 

    "No self, no sense, no death, just a metal puppet dangling on Tenno strings" ~Hunhow 

    He kinda said "metal" puppet, but in Warframe everything could be possible like we received Technocyte virus variation that can infect synthetic beings/ robotics etc. (MOAs, Cephalon Jordas) Maybe in similiar fashion, Warframes are combination of organic and synthetic/ metal and flesh and what we know from biology classes ... flesh (read:living cells) needs energy to live and most efficent way to get energy is to use oxygen in various chemical reactions (no details but some should know what I mean). Thus, we need oxygen/ life support. 

    Enemies don't need to worry about life support depletion 'coz:
    - they carry personal life support modules that we can drop and use for a while
    - they don't do crazy &#! shiet ninja acrobatics, means less energy needed, less oxygen consumed by cells 

  10. Okie-dokie. Time to dust out this thread a bit. 

    Watched Second Dreams cutscenes once again and I had an enlightment.... 

    Lotus is Margulis or ... at least she uses her body. Why? Dunno. 

    Natah is the daughter of Hunhow, his "fragment". She was given a task but she didn't complete it. Mainly, she was destined by Hunhow to use the Tenno against the Orokin and then destroy them. Sentient could win against the Orokin but they had a problem with Tenno 'coz we r speciul, hehe. 

    So that's why Hunhow devised such an evil plan, ho ho! *puts pinky on lower lip* So evil! 

    Ok, but back to the point. He used the body of Margulis for her memory (coz she found a way to do this Transference and knew alot bout Tenno, they would listen to her or she had ice creams etc.) and injected his fragment (Natah) into the brain of this dead body (or just put a helmet on it's head ... one that Lotus wears ya know). Dead Margulis' body became a puppet of flesh and Natah is controlling it via brain/fancy helmet. Booyah!


    What's more? Let me think. Something must have gone wrong and the maternal instinct/feeleing of Margulis towards Tenno were somehow mixed with Natah, Natah started to create her own personality ... different than Hunhows, started to have feelings etc. Booyah! x2

    Instead of destroying the Tenno after making them do the dirty job she put them so sleep so she could hide them from Hunhows eyes. Hunhow thinks everythings ok, they are terminated (but theyh are sleepin', ha ha ha) and goes sleepin' too. System broken. Natah is no longer a sentient and no longer Margulis, she then names herself Lotus and starts doing things ... with sleepin' Tennos or sth like that. 

    Then Grineer clone themselves like crazy, we need to wake up coz clonning is bad, Infestation breaks out of slumber too, Sentients, everyone wakes up after millenia of sleeping ... man! Kinda long naps they take in Warframe universe. END. 

  11. Hoping for Banshee myself, I find that frame vastly more interesting than Trinity.

     

    Because she is, cc, dmg buff, stun lock. Squishier and requires more attention while playing her.

    However, I guess it'll be Trinity Prime this time, unfortunately.

  12. I mostly agree with you ... my only 2 problems with volt are his armor (or lack of armor rather) and Overload (even tho somehow someway i make that ability work 5 out of 10 times). 

     

     Overload is usefull in so many situations I can't count them all. Like .... forum topics, rework topics, chat discussions etc. See? 

    Joking aside. Yup. His ultimate needs a rework. 

  13.  

    Who created the Technocyte virus, when, and for what purpose? It originated from that American experimental submarine, but that's all we know about the actual origins, rather than the soviet development of it.

     

     My guess goes it was America's doing all along. When the Major/General came to the island, he wanted to handle Mezner himself ... then Hayden butchered the marines and the Major, but it kinda implied US knew it all along and wanted to capture Mezner for further experimentation, to learn how he could control the virus.

     

     

     

    What happens to Hayden after the story? Does he stay with Yargo? He can't go back to the US, having killed an Agency operative and several security forces. And what about his infection? Does he contain it, or does it turn him completely?

     

    Probably, he returned to Yargo at some point ... then he continued his life, that's all we can suppose. Infection and all the events on that island changed him in some way, like he felt differently overall, why he killed the Agency or when he fought with Mezner. More mature or just mentally changed main character after the game events, I think. Moreover, at that point he could go everywhere and do everything. 

     

     

     

     

     

     

    What's this operation that scarred Hayden so much? According to the Dark Sector Zero comic and the strategy guide, a lot of unnecessary death happened because of Hayden, and Nadia Sudek departed from the Agency because of it.

     

     

    How could Mezner gain the power to control the virus? (or vise-versa) In fact... how does the bloody virus even work!? A hive mind of some sort?

     

     

    First question. Hayden had some mental problems and some dark past, I guess. Characters like him often have to make hard decissions or do inconvenient orders so I don't even wonder. 

    Second one, DNA changes. That's what almost every virus does. DNA changes to the point it mutated the organisms very quickly and allowed them to develop in various ways (i.e, Colossus). Due to DNA differencies, mutations of Mezner and Hayden could differ in a small matter, at the same point it were the same mutation changes but since Hayden didn't feel any pain he didn't go mad. Means evolution. 

     

    Due to wide variety of DNA changes we can assume Mezner could develop hive mind or so I'll call it. He was intelligent to begin with, evolved into hive mind with the "help" of the virus. 

  14. For now Warframe is more like an "sandbox feel" since we can do whatever we want after the Vor's Prize quest, thogh it's just an instance game. The main problem really is the follow up that OP describes.

    Game doesn't give you a goal, no other quest available, there should be more introductory quests, about the relays (my friends rly didn't know they exist when started a new game few months ago .... ofc, they quit the game cuz they had no goal to achieve), about the Tenshin/Conclave stuff. 


    What Warframe really needs is the upcoming starchart rework and new questing system/upgraded one, new quest content and better expressed goal.  Also we have the Codex training section so I am not sure only about the fact that new players don't know about the game core mechanics. 

  15. Tyl Regor is by far my best boss fight to date. Even though he wasn't much of a challange, his boss fight is well made, on a fabulous boss-arena, nicely designed "phases" or "stages", great voice acting, amazing boss idea overall. 

    I was hesitating at first between Tyl Regor and Vay Hek (Earth boss fight). Vay Hek assassination mission after his rework was .... a great surprise. Something I thought was the perfect boss fight up till then in Warframe, but Tyl Regor beat him in this matter. 

    Too add a lil something extra. Honorable mentions from me would be Sargas Ruk and Lephantis. Sargas Ruk is like rly 3rd the best boss fight in the game. Lephantis is just typical boss fight that shows how Infested bosses should be. 

    Hyena pack and Vor may be treated like nice surprises. Jackal, both Alad V fights, Raptor, Ambulas, Krill, Kyla, Phorid, Phobos dual boss are pretty much "meh" to me. 

  16. They should make Umbra a different series of warframes, with different stats to make them suit slightly different playstyles. Hell, they could even throw in a different ability here and there.

    I personally love the idea that maybe Umbra warframes are more heavily corrupted by the void, and have strong bonuses to certain stats, but more severe weaknesses in others. It'd add some more variation without creating too much work for DE, and it'd create some more specialised frames for advanced players

     

    I double that. If Umbras are going to be a thing, making them more specialised towards certain stat wouldn't be a bad idea. 

    Just like Corrupted mods work maybe Umbras should work that way too. You lose something to gain sth else.

  17. IceWave-Great for mass CC Cold proc, add in augment mod and you will have  a room slowed down simaltaneously

    Freeze-Works as advertised, the cold patch on floor needs to be more distinuishable but it's an excellent first skill.

    Avalanche-10/10. Oh boy this thing got buffed

     

     

    First it does great damage

    What it doesn't kill is frozen for some period, seems to be affected by duration

    Second if the frozen statues die they release an aoe cold proc slowing other things near them.

     

    It's an excellent example of an Ultimate done right. No issues.

     

     

    I would double that post about Avalanche in particular. Great power rework, decent dmg and that freeze duration. ^_^ 

    Armor debuff and radial dmg + cold proc from killed frozen enemies also is something. 

    Passive is pretty noticable too. In last few runs I noticed enemies get frozen when they hit me with meele attacks so it works pretty well. Moreover, I find it extremaly fun to play with the new Frost and the powers seem to synergize one with another. Rework done right. Frost done right.

    Ultimate defensive Warframe done right now.
