Petitition: Darvo "replaces" Market Tab With Hub-Implementation

Recommended Posts

In Devstream 24 (or was it 23?) DE showed a preview of Hubs - a successor for star chart. And some days ago, this threat was created https://forums.warframe.com/index.php?/topic/200384-question-to-the-community-would-unmasked-npc-tenno-be-a-good-idea-to-you/ . And I suddenly had an idea: what if you could trade with Darvo, our favorite Corpus merchant? It would add more depth to the game and make the world more consistent. And I don't know about you guys but there is no such thing like "enough Darvo" in Warframe

 

 

P.S. Mods, I think it's more general discussion than suggestion :)

Thats rather a problem than cool. I want to buy stuff quickly and without loading or running around. So there should still be the normal market for those who like it that way imo.

 

Did you play fable 3? The menu that was designed like a room was horrible, and on the long run its just annoying.

Yes, I wan't Darvo standing beside the counter, screaming "Hey! Hey, you! Pink Rhino with Phage! Aren't you interested in Stalker Pack? It's 50% off today! What'd you say, huh? A scythe, set of throwing knives, bow, everything certified by Stalker himself!"

Fable 3's menu is like an exaggeration of a physical shop being negative. That thing is just bad from concept, to design, implementation, to sfGSEsaEGAEjlag.

 

Anyway, I feel that a good idea is to make the UI of the shop essentially be like a screen showing feed of Darvo when you first open it along with some redesigned interface. Basically kind of like a trade link with Darvo. And you can walk up to his physical shop in the hub and see this wares there as well as the equipment he uses to communicate with you by trade-link. Yeah, trade-link. That sounds good. I'll tm that.

I'd love this idea, especially if there were amusing lines that went with it.

 

"You're taking a while to make your choices, Tenno. Do you not have enough credits? I could give you a lone... with only 'moderate' interest as well."

"So you bought a Bolto bleprint, huh? Good choice! Bt maybe you'll be interested in buying also second one? And Akbolto blueprint? You know what they say, two heads are better than one! Oh, you fought Lephantis... Oh! If you'll ever do that again, I can sell you Team Health Restores a bit cheaper!"

But darvo isn't a fully stocked merchant, he's a black market dealer.

 

I'd love to seek Darvo out in some shady corner of the hub, amidst Grineer and Corpus ex-pats sharing a Greedy Milk Ale.

 

However, he'd never be the Tenno's one and only quartermaster as the thread title suggests.

Well, that's also a good idea.

 

"Pssst, kid, want to buy some bundles?"

no, i haven't. But as i stated, he should "replace" (see the ""?) meaning, that you still would be able to buy stuff like now, quick and boring

 

The Hub may be an issue for this because of loading, but having an animated talking Darvo image with the marketplace commenting on your hesitation and purchases would be AWESOME.

yes, just because of his comments. Hell, they could even have a weeklong contest so that community suggests Darvo lines and like 100 best will be implemented

agreed! 

Darvo should only be in the hub when it's "Darvo Deals" time. the rest of the time there should be a Salesman-Tenno sporting a unique Salesman-Warframe selling you the things!

why turn down the opportunity to add more characters? :x

I support this idea and vote that we name him The Courier!

Well, although I agree, that someone COULD replace him but noone will ever have enough of DARVO factor

Not sayin' anyone should REPLACE Darvo, we're saying that Darvo is our Black Market guy, we go to him for specialty deals and items - the Courier would be our regular go-to merchant that the regular in-game market tab represents.

I wonder what abilities he would have. I'd go with:

 

Numb the Pain. Team armour buff, costs 25 energy (?).

Greedy Milk Slick. Causes enemies within a set radius of you to slip and fall over. While the effect lasts, they are unable to get up and instead slide around on the floor trying to get to their feet. Costs 50 energy.

Hire Mercenaries. Like Shadows of the Dead, but doesn't require you to kill anything first. Enemies scale to the level which you're currently fighting (so it won't be come useless at higher levels). Costs 75 energy.

Open the Vault. Brings out a briefcase and slams it on the ground to open it and shoot out an enormous quantity of 1 millicredit coins at high speed. It's a line of sight continuous attack (like a cross between Sound Quake and Radial Javelin) dealing 90% impact and 10% toxic damage per hit (because copper is poisonous). Costs 100 energy,
