The Melee 2.0 Anticipation Megathread

[The_Sharp_Demonologist]

I will ignore forums complaints as most of them will be from people who can't zoren copter anymore :)

I dont get why people fear they cant Zoren-Copter cause of Melee 2.0, as far as i know you will still have the fast melee attacks as usual and the option to go full melee whit comboes and stuff.

If they cant Zoren-Copter is because DE finally got rip of it.

Or paint him in rainbow colors, get a candy cane and murder everyone looking like a troll :3

 

Well my mom told me i did fall flat on my face when i was little, through some stair, whit a tricicle.

Iron skinned fatties?

 

First of all- gold skinned, you poor newfriend.

 

Seconds- does it hurt you so much that other people are playing the way they want?

 

I play mostly only with clanmates, do you enjoy grinding the same void maps over and over? I don't. Noone is. So let other people play the way is most fun for them.

 

No coptering? Yes, game is soo rich in content and RNG is almost non-existant so yeah... we're heading a good way!

 

Also- I'm coptering with Pangolin Sword. Get over it.

[PookieNumnums]

Its actually Not going anywhere. Quick melee stays and its too much work to remove it not to mention the rage we would unleash. Also.. the copter is meant to combine with the parkour. Scrubs need to stop using controllers and learn to ninja.

[Phoenix86]

I'll try my Glaive Prime and Dakra Prime, then all the other weapons

[Ronyn]

 of course try out and see how Valkyr will be affected by Melee 2.0

Last thing I heard from DE was that melee 2.0 wont really be effecting Valkyr.

They will be revisiting here after though.

[PookieNumnums]

Also Wall launch substitutes so if your parkour is proper copter is just bonus.

[DiddlyMcGee]

whine about nerfs

[ParrotParrot]

I don't actually see what the problem even is at this point.

[kscott190]

Your mom.

Wait your turn just like everyone else

[-Krux-]

gunna fist my nipples

[(PSN)Shadow_Of_Hunhow]

With melee 2.0 a day away for you pc players, I can't help but let my already large amount of jealousy get even higher... Only reason I'm glad about not getting it right away like you guys is that it gives me to to stack up on forma to start my fang prime, reaper prime, orthos prime, and obex at level 1 when it hits ps4!

[JjForcebreaker]

I don't actually see what the problem even is at this point.

 

Because there is no problem.

 

I'll be first to beg for removing this feature if DE make enough changes to gameplay, map design, loot distribution system so we won't have to grind for days and days and we'll have more reasons to play slow and enjoy maps.

zorencoptering needs to go. period.

 

the point is not that you can rush, its that you can break the game by rushing on slower frames and or not building for speed, while also negating any need to actually learn the movement system or think creatively 

 

if you want to be a rusher, then you should have to master the movement system, bring the right warframe, and build appropriately, not just carry a melee weapon

i never get this argument, what stops you from putting copters on a faster frame?

 

you want your slow &#! rhino "ninja" to move faster, give it a zoren

you want your volt to go supersanics? also give it a zoren, a volt with a zoren will go faster than a rhino with one.

 

zorencoptering is in fact something you CAN learn (there's a bunch of stuff you can do besides just Hurrspinattack to make zorencoptering more effective, and ZC is in fact the result of thinking creatively after someone noticed that hey, zorens make me go fast by doing a spinnie.

 

 

i don't know about you but for ninjas, every frame in this game is slow, to this day frost's speed still baffles me and i find it sad that the only way to go fast in a ninja game (besides partying with volt) is by glitching.

 

so adressing your final statement again:

if you want to be a rusher  - yes, let's say i do.

then you should have to master the movement system  - i did, it's currently called zoren coptering + other stuff

bring the right warframe  -  but of course, the effectiveness of coptering is dependant on your frame after all.

and build appropriately  -  if you truly want to rush, both your zorens AND warframe will be modded for that.

not just carry a melee weapon  -  real rushers don't just carry a zoren, slow &#! ninja frames that can't handle that much slow do.

[OTTERMATIC]

I think they're going to remove coptering, because they've said before that they want the game to have a somewhat serious tone to it. Coptering is pretty silly, and it's fun, but not remotely balanced.

[Pendragon1951]

I would love to see responses from DE on this topic, but IMHO I don't see really that much of a change to the overall game. The reason I say this is because this game from it's very beginning has always been gun based with melee being a tertiary after thought. As Warframe has grown it has become even more so with it's type of ballistic and energy based weapons become even more gun based. Even with all the hype from DE about how viable melee now will be with the advent of melee 2.0 the question becomes, "do I really want to close and engage those 10 enemies, when I can kill them from distance with one of many ballistic, blast or energy weapons with no danger to myself?" 

 

What should have happened from the very beginning is this game should have started out as a melee system game, though with a more futuristic, syfy style of play, maybe introducing slowly maybe like flintlock energy rifles with still keeping the retro style but still keeping it in the future. In this way guns become a second choice because of reload speeds and melee becomes the practical weapon of choice.

 

I don't doubt for some maybe many this system will be fun, but I think for a great many melee with still be used maybe to continue open crates and look cool on the hip or back, but as far as becoming a primary weapon you always carry I don't see that happening. One other thing that I forgot to mention, even if I was to get cornered by those same 10 enemies I probably still would not draw my melee weapon when I can hit my 4. So to answer my own question, no it will not. 

[JohnProdman]

We shall see when the update hits.

[-TiTAN--]

^ i ddint read any of that but yes

[rapt0rman]

Nope, I don't think it will change warframe, but it will make Melee more fun and viable. Which is a step in the right direction and will tide us over untill the game gets an actual endgame (which hopefully WILL change warframe).

[Vargras]

Everything on my screen will still be murdered by Somas and Pentas before I can ever get to it, so no.

[azour]

If i can use my blade and only my blade to do any mission,yes that would change be the thing i always wanted warframe to be

If this happen,i will rarely touch a gun

[CelticMoss]

combo system would make the melee stronger then guns if you can keep it going

[direcyphre]

It will certainly boost morale, but the only real change occurs within the people.

[LoGicMoTion]

It wil go as easy as this.

DE removes coptering.

Lame players rage.

DE doesn't care.

Lame players adapt.

Lame players become cool players.

Step by Step.
