Darkwave1098 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 (edited) I see they are sporting a kind of cleaver weapon. Don't mind me I hated their annoying sounds but man, I'll miss forcing them to shut up http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/867219838498126943/D361CF31DF3DB8DC0018E12C1E760E4D11D3A46F/ Off topic: How do you insert a picture btw?

Woonagi Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 budget cuts. as of 18/5/2013, grineer sawmen are to surrender their expensive energy wasting powered saws and must use the energy-efficient body-fuelled saws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapricaSix Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Darn, I liked the funky old sawmen, reminded me of Quake. Shame... :/ PS: you can use [ /img] tags without the space and insert the image link in between. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cursor Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Frankly this is a weird buff to the Sawmen, since now you can't hear their approach. I hope they change it back, though. The saw-hands had a lot of personality, and were actually kind of intimidating in their own way (too bad they're less dangerous than roller balls).

playgroundzombi Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 (edited) Having someone who's arm was amputated to fit a buzz-saw running after you was a lot more intimidating and morbid imo. what why is my text black Edited May 20, 2013 by playgroundzombi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madotsuki Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 "Because cleavers are the saws of the future." But seriously, what motivated DE to switch the saw to a cleaver? Now they are the most generic melee units ever. The noise from the saw was annoying, but it also made the Sawman unique by having a distinct audio warning. Their design was awesome, because having an amputated arm replaced with a BUZZSAW is much more intimidating than just a cleaver. It would be even better if they fused the saw with some designs from the cleaver and made an energy buzzsaw, like, the edge of the blades would be lit up and stuff. It just seems...$&*&*#(%&, to give the SAWman a cleaver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valiant Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 (edited) Guys, they still spawn with saws... I've been slicing and dicing them all morning. I reckon it's just a random addition to make the battlefield a bit more diverse. Edited May 20, 2013 by Naith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakontis Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 What I think happened is that during the construction of the latest patch, the Grineer Flameblades were getting the above treatment, the cleaver with the glowing edge. But somehow it wound up being the Grineer Sawmen that got the treatment instead, thus creating the confusion. That being said, I really like the new cleavers, even if they're on the wrong unit.

se05239 Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 I prefered the old circular saw. That and its audio made the Sawmen really unique.. now.. meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyre Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 The saws were a lot of personality for the grineer, it was an insight to the kind of people they were. you wont find anything like them in the other factions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This makes a lot of sense! :o Though i wonder just how careless one has to be to give a new weapon to the wrong bloody unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlIlllIO0pallaO0IlIlIlIl Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Treasury in Grineer Corps is under quite a strain. They can't afford the saws anymore, so they did away with surplus kitchen cleavers, how CLEAVER of them. cough cough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosyPigeon Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 I'm kinda glad they got rid of them, when I used to play warframe I'd have that damn saw noise ringing in my head for hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
