Wisp Prime trailer is set on Tau (i think)

[Sevenus.]

Does anyone recognize the area that wisp prime's trailer was shot at? i get that feeling that its somewhat a new area as it doesnt look similar to any of the Earth's tiles nor the plains of Eidolon.

At the beginning of the trailer Ballas talks about the "new earth" (referring to Tau) and Wisp is fighting sentients in the trailer which i don't recall seeing any in any of the prime trailers.

this could be a duviri cave/tileset but if thats the case then what are the sentients do there and how come the waframe is operational there(yes i know, you could briefly use warframes in Duviri, im not referring to the Undercroft).

 

Could it be that this is sort of a sneak into the Tau region?

It just looks like Earth

not like any of the earth's tilesets and i doubt they created a new one just for the cinematic. thought this could be a cool theory

It's an interesting thought but it does look very Earth-like. The only unusual thing are the holes in the ground:

But none of that screams Tau to me.

Tau is also described as an "alien blue star" that "was dark and blinding beyond us", but the sky isn't very blue.

The Orokin were also interested in fixing Earth, which was an Infested wasteland. "New heaven, new Earth" could just refer to, well, Earth.

true, but have we seen this area before?

usually DE uses already in-game tilesets for their prime trailers, i dont recall seeing this place on any of Earth's missions or plains of eidolon.

looks much newer compare to these tilesets in terms of design.

i somewhat disagree that the reference of new earth is earth after the orokin will "fix" it, after all they were the ones destroying it and after that the grineer if i recall currectly.

Saryn Prime cleansed Earth of its rampant Infestation, then Wisp Prime came to Ballas in a dream to help seed life (plantlife at least) in the aftermath of the greatest of plagues.

Or are you implying Wisp's assets- portals reached even farther than the Zariman did?

Edit: the scene looked like Wisp's  nursery/garden where her Reservoirs grew, with all those densely packed holes containing what appears to be water.

I guess.

i just want to know what that area is and where can i view it up-close.

all the prime trailers use in-game areas or captura rooms that are avaliable in-game. i don't recognize this area as any of the Earth or Plains.

just something seemed off when i saw an unknown tile/area, ballas talking about the new vision of a new earth and sentients to appear.

Oh it's definitely a new area. Just don't think it's Tau.

They were pretty invested in fixing Earth. Silvana and the Silver Grove, for example. And they (or Titania) kind of succeeded, given how not-hellscape Earth is in the present day.

[Sevenus.]

You're probably right

Honestly i doubt that this is Tau it just seemed odd how things were shown there, and so close to tennocon toom...

Guess we will see it all in a month or so.

They do, but only in the sense of tilesets aesthetic. This is just the same as Oberon Prime trailer. It's meant to look like the Earth Forest, but not an exact tile.

Do you really think the tilesets we have are the entirety of Earth?

[(PSN)robotwars7]

it's earth, just one of many hidden places deep in the jungles which neither the grineer or tenno factions have encountered yet. even then, Earth still has multipel terrain types, as shown by the Plains of Eidolon.

[Voltage]

The scene reminded me of the Silver Grove / Saryn Prime Trailer / Teshins Cave, just an enclosure representing Earth imo.

IIRC the Valkyr Prime trailer also took place in its own custom environment. It resembles the Corpus Outpost tileset but as far as I'm aware there are no tiles in-game that match its layout.

Then... where is the Saryn Prime trailer set?

And what tile is Vauban Prime on?

I mean, it's easier for DE to use existing tiles, but they're not above using areas that we haven't seen.

[NightmareT12]

It seems to me they used Duviri tiles/tech and Teshin's cave as a base to a custom Earth tileset.

The only beings from the Origin System to ever make it to Tau are the Sentients.  It's not Tau.
