Devstream 137 Overview!

[[DE]Taylor]

The crew is back on the couch for another Devstream, and boy did they bring a lot to share! If you want to learn more about our plans for the Kuva Lich System, Pets 2.0, Corpus Ship Remaster, Titania Ability tweaks, and so much more, you can read all the dirty details in our overview here: https://www.warframe.com/news/devstream-137-overview

With the Lich changes I hope there are overall more attempts to make it feel more organic... as I said prior, it could help to maybe have thralls or some sort of hidden items or rare drops spawn in regular levels that give murmurs. Maybe make your Lich stealing items then a result from death as well, so that death feels more punishing later on and there is a way to not get stolen from at all.

In return the Lich held areas are hidden strongholds that have to be revealed somehow first and finishing a mission gives you some of your stolen goods back (but not all of it... you have to end your Lich for that)

I have a feeling changes in that tone could make the Kuva Lich system feel more organic and weave it more into the regular gameplay experience. Your Lich would be more part of your personal journey and be less of another "separate island of content".

Excellent ideas I feel.

"Steve also mentioned a new game mechanic, asking Tenno if they will be altruistic or greedy."
Ha! Years later, since time when i just start playing this game, applause for you and thanks. It was only one first mission for new player, that never ever can be found later in entire game. 

 

[TheTrueS0B]

Those lich changes are on point, and despite what my friends keep saying i hope the new warframe isnt wisp 2.0 😞 also tenno con 2020 dates?

How many times can the Valence Infusion be used per weapon?  Is the new system a one time use only or can you use the system multiple times to get as close to 60% as possible?

[Yakhul]

I dont know if anyone noticed but, from the devstream overview:

Quote

Some Companion-specific buffs/changes:

• Howl on Huras will not make enemies run away, so you can actually shoot them

Howl, is not an augment of the Huras Kubrow that i know. Huras Kubrow comes with Stalk, and Hunt. Howl is a precept of the Raksa Kubrow, unless i have not used my Huras in so long, that i dont even remember if it howls or not.

[DroopingPuppy]

Will 'DNA' stablizer finally removed? It is fine to pay for some food, but NOT the name DNA Stablizer, for it only means we make the flawed lifes. Pets, the companions, deserves better.

I think that it is the last chance to say no for it.

[Hynek307]

Ok, so few questions:

1) Archwings get dismantled in favour of modular archwing. So, old archwings wouldn't be a thing. There was Odonata Prime - did we farm/buy it for nothing?

2) If lich weapons are said to be expanded further in the future - any plans for heavy scythes (2h ones)? No, heavy zaw doesn't count.

3) Command wheel for companions - shouldn't it get seperate keybind, since our gear wheel is CLUSTERED like hell?

PS. Kuva Bramma - I can already hear heavy breathing from BNP and Cataclysm...

"Steve also mentioned a new game mechanic, asking Tenno if they will be altruistic or greedy."

 

Is this foreshadowing rolling dice for 1 piece of loot based on damage done% ?

[(PSN)VoidT3Rrr0r]

Can we actually have scaling rewards for staying longer in missions? Great we have new weapons to master/delete and other stuff. I wish we have something exciting (raids, void keys back) instead of already dead railjack or mastery fodder MOAs.

[IamLoco]

Players :"When will the Archwing rework be released? What about Railjack stage 3? What are you guys working on currently???"

DE: "Here is a rope jumping melee pet for you!"

Players: "Ehm....."

DE: "You mad?"

Players: "..."

DE: "oh and a Heavy metal Shawzin!"

Players: "YEAAAAAH BABY ROCK'N'ROLL!"

[yarl5000]

New simulacrum looks nice but can we get one that lets us spawn the railjack fighters and lets us try out our various railjack weapons and archwing set ups?

 

It isn't great to only be able to guess how a gun or build will feel until you get into a mission.

 

Also side note would be nice to have a spot to test out how a mod feels for kdrives but that is a lower priority since they aren't as required for combat 

[--RV--arm4geddon-117]

Such a lazy and poor design decision to just recycle most of secondary kitgun parts into primaries with the exception of grips

Bring forth new models not just grips.

So much for something that should have came out 1 year ago lol

.. and they forgot about the Command Intrinsics? So it is scrapped?

[ChaosMarine]

With the potential for Railjack components to be merged, does that mean we could potentially go past the 100 limit of Avionics? We need at least another thirty or forty points for Avionics.

[Guest]

I would keep Howl the same. It kicks people off the point. 

However, I wish that Unleashed worked on Demolysts. 
 

[PorcelainCow]

Are the changes to Titania's 2 also being applied to Grendel's 2, which works on exactly the same system?

If not, why not?

[Aesthier]

Will those that spent plat investing in stasis chambers get that plat back when stasis is removed?

Highly doute it, gonna keep giveing money right?

[Keltik0ne]

That kuva bow looks really bad, horrible drop off, no ammo efficiency and high self damage (Reb almost killed herself with an unmodded wep and, er god mode on)., needs a rework or a different dev to look at it.

Lich changes look nice.

Can you give moas a shirt, tie, and sunglasses?
