Because if you don't use tactics with Volt you die.
Sheldon: "It's Volt!"
Gotta love Sheldon.

I jumped in with a half leveled Ember Prime (with half leveled weapons) funny enough. I ran around like a headless chicken dodging an endless sea of fire. After about 10 people cycled though thanks to rage I managed to make it. Even getting to extraction was a pain. Equally unexpected, rough, and hilarious.

It resembles what I would have expected to see in an Infested Warframe. I'm sure a lot of people are gonna give it Ancient colors and call it a day. Now is it just me or are frames just getting goofier and goofier, especially the guys? I'm missing the more seriously themed aesthetics that helped bring me into the game. Of course visuals aren't everything, however, there is a line where they can begin to cut into the overall theme that's been established in a universe.
Here's what I mean. The Sentient trailer was dark and foreboding; had a nice feel to it. All the Frames there completely felt fine (even Mirage didn't seem out of place). The spotlight was given to Excalibur, the poster boy. Who better, right? That said, his spot could have been given to practically any other Warframe and it would have still felt like it belonged (yes that includes Hydroid and Mesa) there. Now let's say we replaced Excalibur with Chroma or Limbo. For a lot of people it would seem totally off, and not very Warframe, to say the least. Play it out in your head and see.
The crowd reaction, or lack there of, for Chroma's reveal spoke volumes. As does this topic. I'm all for unique approaches in art, but maybe DE should start to ease back into atmosphere that Warframe was founded on. A joke Frame here and there is fine, but let's give it a break for now.

Being able to kill enemies with relative ease in this game doesn't define tactical. Having to use a series of procedures to deal with said enemy does. You're putting him in a situation that would support this.
-
People should stop taking every word here so literally. Strategists and tacticians run in the same vein, and boil down to the Whats and Hows.The Warframe descriptions aren't unshakable holy text. Vauban is more an engineer than a tactician, but being tactical or strategic isn't a quality exclusive to any Frame. Is Volt an alternative to guns? Not even remotely.
Well, Volt can be tactical. In the last heavy melee only TAC alert I was playing with Volt. Built shields, tried to shock em, but most importantly, I spammed speed around, which also increases attack speed. This was really useful with the slow heavy melee weapons.
You beat it with Volt, too. Nothing like going against the machine. Let's hope you didn't use those dreaded tactics to do so or you might get called a Vauban.

Why is this even being debated? Pretty much everyone knows it's Volt Prime, it's been confirmed multiple times, and you even have visual confirmation. This makes my head hurt.
-
One of Warframe's greatest aspects are its aesthetics. With that said, I'm looking forward to Volt Prime.
My thoughts on Chroma's appearance? You just got them.

Uhm, not what I was laughing about but ok
I was laughing about the fact, hes "punishing us for datamineing, when DE Reb said who it was in the Prime-Time stream, I just find that over-protective. its damm clear who it is
Gotcha. I found the later to be funny.

For someone who's been playing a while I can say that, for me, using Rhino on late T4 was a hell of a lot more exciting than Loki. With Rhino you're fighting for your life because Iron Skin is practically cosmetic. It's far more fun when you have to run, dodge, deflect, and constantly react to enemies in order to survive. Roar is great (could be better), and Charge is basically a teleport if modded right. Stomp is your go to ability when it gets heavy (though can feel extremely annoying when spammed, and my god do people spam it...).
Loki feels a bit too safe for MY tastes. I go invisible, disarm the entire area and gun down everyone from a corner without any repercussions (save a stray bullet), or be more "risky" and melee. That got boring real fast for me. That's not to say Loki isn't useful, because he's far more useful than Rhino will ever be. When it comes to framing, surviving those insane Alerts, etc. you can't go wrong him. Which is why after playing with all the Frames, and hearing all the complaints, I settled on the most meh of them all. Though when his Prime comes someone will find a way to add him to the dreaded "noobs only" list.
Man that one little statement that Loki is "For experienced players" is at the root of all this "drama".......

Soloing high tier content while enemies completely ignore your every action, to becoming completely invincible, is considered "Mad Skillz" in the eyes of some. All jokes and arguments aside, it's a game where you want and get to feel ridiculously empowered. People are gonna defend that from every angle no matter what. Just the way it is.
-
lol really?
That means Nyx Prime. She is the all seeing Illumintati confirmed Warframe, after all. Gonna control yo mind!
-
Oh boy here we go. Warframe is for having a good time, not a battleground for gender politics and personal issues. Take this nonsense to Tumblr where it belongs.

1) That would be cheap.
2) We are the ones that dfeated the Sentients, everything they threw at us in the Old War, we defeated.
3) They are probably not immune to our CC powers "Striking our enemies in ways they could not comprehend." ~ Excal Codex
Final Conclusion:
Make it Strong? Yes. Make it a pain to kill? Yes. Make it "The Dreaded", as worse than the Stalker when you are Solo with only 1 weapon that is with Magnetic damage and mostly Impact? Yes. Make it 1/2/3/4-Shot us? No. Make it Invincible? See point (1). Make it have invincibility phases? I can bite that.
It being cheap isn't the point. It being something to fear is. If you can beat it, then it's just another enemy. This clearly wouldn't be a standard Sentient unit (it could be a complete rarity even among their ranks), and that's not to say it wouldn't be killable in the future. Hell, it would make for a great quest gathering data and artifacts on just how to kill it.
It's not always about being numba won stronkest gib mah drops. There's talk about Warframe losing its dark feel. Something of this nature would be to help capture the presence of an enemy that brought the system to its knees. Stalker is a joke. Warframe needs a new monster that hunts the monsters.

Releasing his data after you killed him and the Kweens doesn't guarantee that someone else will be able to pick up where he was forced to leave off. You could end up dooming the entire race (defectors and all) to a slow suffering death just because you were blood thirsty. The Tenno/Lotus are fairly technologically advanced, and look how terrible their attempt at curing genetic degradation was. We have to treat our Kubrow every so often or they die. And piece isn't our goal, 'balance' is. AKA the complete stagnation of the system. It is okay if the Corpus and Grineer continue to war with one another, as long as neither get's a leg up on the other.
That's the thing though, his research has nothing to do with killing. And if anyone in his place would try to fix the degradation, why is he the only one mentioned to be doing this kind of work?
Some of Ruk's lines of dialogue seem to imply that there is a subservient class made up of those people who submit to the Grineer.
I'm not sure why you guys seem to think the Genetic degradation is actually limiting the Grineer at all. It has been stated that they use cybernetics to make up for their defects. Curing these defects will only really remove the need for cybernetics and will not change the fact that Grineer use cybernetics to become stronger than their bodies allow (Kela, Hek, and Ruk are great examples, and soon so will Tyl).
Maybe his work isn't about killing. It's just about the preservation and longevity of those who want to cleanse the Sol System of all who aren't Grineer.

If the Mimic Hunhow can say "Get Clem!" he wins all be default.

Why have a dilemma about killing an enemy scientist? You stop the scientist from creating new means of killing you and pretty much everyone else with ease. In war scientists are assassinated/captured all the time. They can be just as valuable or dangerous as standing armies. Trying to fix the cloning degrade doesn't make Ty some great hero, as he's doing what anyone in his place would. Like people have said, Grineer will continue their campaign of extermination full throttle if he fixes it. As a scientist Ty may not be "evil" but his actions will lead to a very evil outcome.
Kill him!

I'd like to see some kind of invincible assassin type Sentient that tries to hunt you down, and the only option is retreat. None of that weak G3 intimidation. Give it a hulking Mr. X (Resident Evil) vibe. You can't stop it, or slow it down. If it catches you you're dead.

I'd like to see the numbers on Frames used that completed the Alert.

Volt prime? What a shocking development. I do hope he gets here with speed, but please shield me from the grind to get him or I think I may overload...
...I'll shut up now.

Warframes piloting even bigger Warframes. I can dig it.

Volt was "the alternative to guns", yet in actually his abilities rely heavily on them. Shock, Electric Shield, and even Overload all require firearms to compliment them. Sure metal sanic melee is a fun option, but it's not something you want to do against high lvl enemies too often. Volt's powers need some reworking. If he isn't able to kill tougher enemies outright with his abilities, they at least need to have more effective CC.
That aside, I definitely agree with what most people wish to see:
Increased speed: 1.15 - 1.2
Increased armor: 60 - 90 (15 armor is just sinfully wrong for any Warframe)
Increased coattail <.<

Yeah this topic is going nowhere good. Close.

Try it on Volt's back.
It meshes with the cabling on his lower back perfectly
This.
A lot of people are looking at the Rift Sigil too much as a symbol since it's in that literal category, but they should be looking at it as an effect. Use it as rippling Void energy, or even fashion it as damage to your Frame (like a Zanuka or Stalker scar). Rift looks better on the more jagged/bulky Frames, but not so much on the smoother ones.

My take from the hot mess that is the Chroma thread:
It resembles what I would have expected to see in an Infested Warframe. I'm sure a lot of people are gonna give it Ancient colors and call it a day. Now is it just me or are frames just getting goofier and goofier, especially the guys? I'm missing the more seriously themed aesthetics that helped bring me into the game.
