De!: Will We Ever Get A Real "urban" Setting

[Deidaku]

Fighting off grineer , infested or corpus in one of the "colonies" * populated areas....

 

because we seem to be protecting those a lot but we never see them.

 

hell we don't know how civilians look like!!

 

I hope that the hubs will be able to  give us a  glimpse of civilisation in the warframe universe.

Agreed. It would be interesting to help and cooperate with these civilians. +1

[Pizzarugi]

Technically, the closest you can get to an urban/colony setting is in Mars. If I remember correctly, the stonework in the abanadoned settlement actually belonged to one of the splintered colonies which the Grineer took over.

[vaugahn]

That would be cool.

 

Although, populated areas in shooter games are always annoying.

That must have been a while ago then, those structures look downright ancient.

Well, the Tenno have been sleeping in cryo stasis for a very very long time. Who knows what happened while they've been away.

yup agreed we need a better tileset. Can't really argue much as I am very impressed with how you can enter big ships on archwing although relatively the gameplay does get boring. a boss map with 16-30 wouldn't be bad? what do you think tennos

[nickelshark]

I would love to see a Corpus Megalopolis that has been entirely overrun by the infested. Maybe even a planetary invasion by the Corpus on a grineer Colony.

[DJ_Redwire]

I'm still holding out for a Corpus urban setting for when Neptune gets a rework. DE has been alternating between Grineer  and Corpus planets in terms of updating tilesets, so perhaps after the Grineer get the up coming underwater tileset, there might be some sort of Corpus city set in the queue. Here's to hoping anyway.

The "civilians" are just Corpus. The Grineer are a militaristic society of clones, and the Corpus buy and sell between themselves, the Grineer, and the Tenno. We aren't protecting colonies, we are restoring balance in the universe. That's why we killed the Orokin in the first place, to create balance. That is our goal, that's why we went into cryo sleep because there was balance once the Orokin were dead. The Grineer and Corpus split off from what remained of the Orokin.

[Mak_Gohae]

We are special forces sent to hit specific high priority targets. 

High priority targets that have a huge effect on the war.

I dont see the need to end up running through a space favela.

[Radford_343]

I like the idea!

 

Seeing first hand how civilian settlements actually look like would add a lot to the game. Only question would be what we are doing there. Perhaps as a hub or something similar, peaceful.

 

Or just regular missions set in a city like tileset ^-^

What does that make people like Loka? I guess you could argue maybe she's a corpus, but I kinda doubt it, same goes for hostages we rescue, who maybe could be considered tenno but maybe not. I don't think it's accurate to say everyone out there is grineer, corpus or tenno, the fact is we honestly don't know though. Apparently there haven't been other people worth fighting at least but that's all we know. Also no real evidence that grineer and corpus came from Orokin even more so, I doubt it. Whether there were more people now or not, I'm sure there was then.

I believe it states in a codex entry that the Orokin split into the Grineer and Corpus, not sure where I saw it but it was definitely in the game.

Thanks Yaer

 

sorry for the mispost

With the new Aerial melee it could be interesting to see some more vertically focused map tile-sets. If there is a specific planet that players could expect to find such features then they could be prepared to handle the change. They could bring back ziplines and other classic infiltration tools like grapnels. They could even incorporate toned down Archwing features to bridge the gap between the gameplay types.

I would love to see a Corpus city like the Citadel or Ilium from Mass Effect (even though I'm no longer a fan of the series).

 

It wouldn't be on the ground level of the city, but jumping rooftop to rooftop. Fighting through apartments,  offices, parkouring off of flying cars, Corpus advertisements and billboards everywhere.

I already imagine myself sneaking around buildings or rooftops...

An urban setting is the only place I can see stealth being a thing.

 

Either up on a roof, or wearing some sort of disguise to blend in with a crowd.

That does not matter.

 

Civilian lives are fodder.

Aaaah! This could be an excellent middle ground between the two tenno schools,really.

Exactly.

 

It also offers an in-universe explanation for stealth as well. In most stealth games you stealth because it's the only way to survive, which isn't really the case here. But in a city, you would stealth because you don't want to get civilians involved in a firefight, rather than self-preservation.
