Armed_Monkey Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 What will happen to the PC Warframe updates when PlayStation limitations are reached, and would you expect PC updates continue on regardless that PlayStation can't keep up with new content?

RoboDoge Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 (edited) I wouldnt bother that much, as PS4 can run for quite a time. I hardly believe that Warframe will live longer than 2 more years. Edited July 31, 2014 by RoboDoge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkkterror Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 (edited) What makes you think Warframe will ever add so much content that the PS4 can't hold it? Edited July 31, 2014 by Haldos Cleaned up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiggCMan Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 What do you mean by limitations? The only possible limitation is hard drive space. More content won't affect anything else but that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armed_Monkey Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 Hey, I'm as much "PC Master Race" as the next guy, but what makes you think Warframe will ever add so much content that the PS4 can't hold it? Or is it that we Pc users are getting the same "stuff" as Playstation... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoboDoge Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 What do you mean by limitations? The only possible limitation is hard drive space. More content won't affect anything else but that. There is limit of hardware over time. PC tends to progress and consoles are left behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiggCMan Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 There is limit of hardware over time. PC tends to progress and consoles are left behind. Yea computers get better in terms of hardware. But long running games such as Warframe don't really change in terms of hardware requirements. There will be no issues with this game on PS4 in the future.

Airwolfen Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Maybe the PC will outclass the PS version more and more overtime (only if your rig can handle it of) but but that is it. Question between pc and ps for me is. Can your PC handle wf better than the ps4. And do you like aiming with a controller. Those two are the important questions on this.

My PC is less powerful than PS4, and i am not the biggest fan of aiming with analogs. Feels weird and unnatural, but i can make it work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimm Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 ok consoles aren't left behind, a new model comes out. the differents between pc and console is console it once every few years but pc is every few seconds. warframe wont get to heavy for ps4 before ps7 comes out.

vaugahn Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Warframe is PC first console second so if that somehow happened I assume they'd just keep on updating PC like normal. It won't ever happen though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirinketsu Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 PC has NVidia PhysX .. PS4 dose not ... so that's already answered your question... Warframe looks and plays better on the PC already .. and that will never change and PC version will keep improving over the PS4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)kiddplay13 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 (edited) PS4's gonna last about as long the PS3 did ( i wish it had the PS2 life expectancy but this is good enough). So unless Warframe become a Virtual World that only support Oculus and not Morpheus there's nothing to worry about. And to the guy who said something about Planetside 2, the Devs confirmed it'll run the same as a PC on Ultra settings (his words, not mine) EDIT: How long do you expect Warframe to keep going ?

MeduSalem Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 (edited) The problem of consoles getting too limiting only occurs when DE majorly updates the Evolution Engine underneath Warframe. The Content itself is build upon the capabilities of the engine and that's what will be preventing too excessive content. The engine simply couldn't handle it. It's the question if DE will ever consider taking a major step like upgrading the engine to a full new iteration, otherwise it will stay pretty much the same for the coming years. If it stays the same Engine with only minor updates... then the consoles will be handling that just fine because by then they will exploit every bit of optimization possible. Consoles tend to offer much more room for optimization than PCs anyways because stuff like low level instruction code cycles, memory access timing and whatnot will all be researched to great extend so they can literally squeeze out the last bit of performance those rotting consoles may offer. Something normal game developers would never do for the PC because of the constant market cycle and the too varying hardware found in each computer. PC is just brute force with only shallow optimization at all. Edited July 31, 2014 by MeduSalem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiggle_Physics Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Look at eve. Its run for 11 years. You can run it on a laptop and have it look terrible, or on a gaming rig and have it look nice as hell. It holds the same for (most) any long running game.

Unless there's eventually a Warframe 2, I doubt much will change in term of requirements for Warframe as it is, not because it's crossplatform but instead that like most games, they usually are developped with the current tech in mind at the start of their development cycle. Some people mod old games to look better and all, but I doubt the goal is to slowly increases the minimum requirements. Perhaps add visual options that are automatically disabled on other platforms but doubtful the actual 'performance' of the engine will require noticeably better hardware at this point.

(PSN)kiddplay13 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 (edited) I was talking about games that look good and have been out for awhile. Long-Running gams can't have too much of a Graphic Overhaul due to some many different Rigs out there, so they slight tune it here and there as years go by and the minimum requirements gets higher. The reason i said WoW because it fits in that exact category, it's gotten a graphics overhaul and looks vastly better than when it first started.

(PSN)SUZOOKUS_MAXIMUS Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Typically on consoles the games get better over time as the developers learn all the tricks of the systems. For example some of the last games on SNES like Donkey Kong Country looked way better than the new 32 bit Playstation 1 games did in 1994 despite having inferior hardware. I would imagine that as DE gets more experience or staff resources with PS and XBOX that those versions will get better and optimized over time. They may never get as good as the PC versions though.

Cpt_Atroxium Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 (edited) The fear of playing on PC version, getting limitated in the terms of power /Graphics updates, visuals, effects. Stuff that will outrun the PS4. OP ask, if that will limit the PC version, in terms of when warframe is on its peak of amaze, we can continue to get amaze and we still do. When the PS4 cant follow the leader, what will that do to the leader? Well, I have questioned myself this, and I really hope its not the worst of what we do think. I guess, if we ever come across the day of this. The PS4 is the one behind, not PC. I really hope not they limit the PC spectrum because PS4 cant have it or can run it. But PC already has a lot that PS4 dont. So dont worry OP. And a note, just because some got a bad PC doesnt mean they cant put in a few extra sweet looking stuff for the ones with better PC. (the bad PC can also be the PS4) If you want to look at it that way. PS: PS4 will do just fine, if it can run Crysis it can run warframe with PC aspects to it for a while further. (not Physx and such but the overall visuals should be the same) -but pc will always have that little extra edge to it.
