Mak_Gohae Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 From the mail we got it states that the game story began one year ago. So what about the Tenno from before? The closed beta testers ......and alpha? Where there Alpha testers? Anyway, how come all the folks from before open beta dont get any representation in the lore. We should have been the small first wave and with that group the Lotus was able to wake up the huge army that we got now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OriVerda Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Lotus is a pretty funny gal. A year later she thanks the "first" group of Tenno and still hasn't told you your history. How long does space amnesia last I wonder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mak_Gohae Posted March 27, 2014 Author Share Posted March 27, 2014 NDA Are you saying that the Lotus is hiding who she woke up? Why would she hide some Tennos waking up from others? Did this email reveal yet another of her evil plots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Letter13 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Are you saying that the Lotus is hiding who she woke up? Why would she hide some Tennos waking up from others? Did this email reveal yet another of her evil plots? No, Mak. He's saying that as far as we're concerned, as open beta testers, there were no Tenno awake before the game went open beta because of the Non-Disclosure Agreement for Alpha/Closed Beta testers. I think you're reading way, way too much into a simple "thank you for 1 year" message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(PSN)SoulRyuuX Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Maybe just me, but I think the Alpha/Beta testers would be those "First Tenno" with the "countless more have joined our fold" referring to those who joined from open beta onwards, or at least that's how I've interpreted it.

Kind of still does. I am leveling the GW now and i am about to make a video where i have Hawk Eye, i put that silence mod and see how good i can snipe. It's back, baby.

IrisDragoon Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 i think closed beta testers were tenno who were awoken by other means than the lotus... then they found her and a few weeks later she sent out a call and woke most tenno up (open beta) (this is all up in the air right now, with the little lore we have, we can say anything and it's true because of all the unknowns.)

Morec0 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 No, Mak.

Athros Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 In-game text, incl. Lotus' sayings are a lore material, but it's not always the case. In this one, it's maybe as bad as what she said about her calculated time to hack through a terminal : |*lookingbackthroughcodexentries* Yep, we really need lore. A real one.

Barbetti Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 The Lotus' message is probably more of DE addressing the player as Lotus to Tenno than actual lore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiegraf Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 (edited) The Closed Beta Tenno were the First Encounter Assault Response unit. We were the warning shot; they returned fire. Now they're getting the full brunt force of the awakened Tenno united, just like they deserve. Edited March 27, 2014 by Wiegraf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my question remains, how come we didnt get a little shout-out. What does the NDA have to do with lore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
