Scar.Heart Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Immortal Skins are a Texture. not a new Mesh. same amount of Development work as making a new Warframes' appearance. Ah, alright. I still think that price is a rip. But that's me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taiiat Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I still think that price is a rip. if it was just a random Mesh with no connection, i'd agree. but as a shoutout to Dark Sector, and that it ties into the game(which is more than i can say for some other things), on top of being presumingly Exclusive, i consider it reasonable.

Erusa Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Only reason you're losing the bet is because the current price tag. Any drop on the price sounds far more reasonable than what it currently is. If the original price were 100p, you'd have a good chance of being right. Personally, I'd go for it at 100p. That's only 25p more than what it costs to buy Excalibur, who comes with the reactor + WF slot. True enough, I forgot to factor in some key elements in that psychoanalysis of le market movement. (namely how a "lower price" would be much more palatable in the light of a higher one.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlayn Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 the head is diff? how so? i dont own an exca nvr seen the skin in full detail b4 I only noticed this because if you stick it on excel prime he clips. You can clearly see his horn, and head design is very different as the parts clip through everywhere. Plus the horn is actually wider going back further compared to the less wider excel horn.

MrJxt Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 (edited) Proto-Excalibur: Immortal: Was it worth the 150p? kinda, that was plat earned from trading and I have nothing else to spend it on, but I still prefer my immortal skin. Proto or Immortal? Definitely immortal imo. Edited March 27, 2014 by MrJxt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaryl Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Only thing I hate is that....I can't use alternative helmet, so no stats....Anyway I don't use Exacalibur XP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlayn Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I love this suit... I waited forever for it... now I can't change to another frame because its so awesome! Yep went ahead and put forma on glaive, and Excalibur just to have fun leveling it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrJxt Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 you could use alt helm.... There's no helm option when you have the skin equipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentMobius Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 (edited) I do think the price is a little high _however_ calling it a skin is _way_ out The work involved is: 1. New helmet mesh 2. New helmet normal map 3. New helmet diffuse map 3. New helmet specular map 4. New helmet tint map 5. New torso mesh 6. New torso normal map 7. New torso diffuse map 8. New torso specular map 9. New torso tint map 10 Torso mesh rigging. vs the immortal skin which is: 1. New torso tint map Or a helmet which is: 1. New helmet mesh 2. New helmet normal map 3. New helmet diffuse map 3. New helmet specular map 4. New helmet tint map It was a lot more work, almost as much as a new Warframe for the art dept.

If you believe it to be, so be it. I've almost raked in the amount needed to purchase it. I'm looking at essentials that I need, but everything I need cannot be bought with Platinum, and must either be found in Trade or doing another 15 rounds of 30 minute T2/T3 Survivals. Hoo-@(*()$-ray. So I'm either going to get the skin and glare at that god-awful grey part that cannot be colored, or wait for an update that puts the current unbundled Immortal Skins into a bundle. Or I'll wait for a color bundle that has metallic and whatnot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gumber007 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I bought it right when I logged in. Not looked back it a fine work of art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No seriously not being sarcastic... you should support DE more... now... HAYDEN TENNO!!!! You realize it's Hayden Tenno in the same way that Excalibur is, right? In the sense the only relation is they look the same. There is no lore or conventional logic to support that Hayden Tenno could still be alive.

Ritchel Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 for me it is expensive since i have no plats now, and i dont have an access to buy plats - personal issues i will miss this for sure.... but the fact that im not using excal always since hes all blind radial and all that makes me comfortable not buying this skin. i just dont want them to release alot of limite edition stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merlinhawk Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Looks awesome BUT... id love to use my Excal Prime Helmet on it, if it gets put on the Excal Prime.. wich sadly dosnt work cause its a new Mesh. The Immortal Skin works on Excal prime, cause its only a retexture.. maybe we can have the right helmet on it in a future patch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grulos Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Because Limited Edition. Just like card games. Card games on motorcycles. Braton Vandal and Lato Vandal were 1 credit. And they were exclusive and also limited time. Now talk about being expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(PSN)fingernageldreck Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 (edited) I love warframe but dark sector was a horrible horrible game... I bought it for 5€ back then(the cheap prices showed that it wasnt the best game available but i still gave it a try) and after 4-5 hours i gave up on this game because it was such a boring fighting system. When i tried to resell that game in some stores they laughed at me and said sorry we wont be able to sell it again. So im reeeeeally glad that DE stepped up created a really cool game, but still i would be glad if i could forget the time i spent on dark sector... Therefore im pretty sure i wont buy that skin. But to everyone who bought and like that skin, enjoy it! More skins, more difference between each player is always welcome.

Asko Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 considering this is the most comprehensively complicated Cosmetic item to date, it makes sense. Agree, but DE is celebrating anniversary so they should have offer this awsome armor for discount (80plat would be fair price)) or leave it forever on market so people can earn enough to buy it later. Its shame that souch a best armor many players wont have. Excalibur is starting frame and many people dont play with him after get any later warframe and this proto skin would make excalibur popular again.
