UltimateSpinDash Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 (edited) Frost (and Nyx) came in Update 6, yet he was the second prime. People liked to ignore that fact when Nova Prime came out and everyone was rambling about how she shouldn't exist because Tenno Council (because it couldn't possibly exist during the Orokin Era, right?). Older frames have priority, but that doesn't mean that popular frames are ignored just because they are newer. And it also depends on what Mynki wants to do.

Jeetza Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Honestly I don't see why so many people care about release dates. We got a Prime frame didn't we? Does it make it any less prime because of its release date? No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingTaro Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Did I miss some announcement? If so, could you post a link? I'm not sure what you mean with the frames being released based on popularity, when all the prime frames, except for Nova, are Close Beta frames. Banshee and Saryn came with U7. With the launch of Open Beta. The only Close Beta frame that needs to be released is Trinity. The next two prime frames are going to be female. Chances are pretty high one of them is going to be Trinity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doom_Bunny Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 last few prime ie excal and frost and mag being the first prime but also coming from very beginning of warframe but now seems like Trinity and Banshee are getting forgot about when it comes to prime. Are they buried that deep in the void they're collecting dust? It feels like the next prime warframe is just by demand. I'm not fan boying over any frames in particular, just i don't really like the method of choosing primes because i feel like we are never going to get the older warframes prime until people run out of popular demand. They are not being forgotten and the order is mostly random, it's all up to DE. Popularity may have a slight affect on what DE chooses but I doubt it's any more then that. The older frames do take priority but the decision comes down to DE. If say DE wanted to do something in particular, they may release another frame like Nova prime (proves to people all frames get primed ("tenno council" was retconned some time before priming her)) The next two primes are meant to be female and if you have a look at threads that ask people "what they want the next prime to be" you'll see the names; Trinity, Saryn, Banshee, Valkyr. So even if it was by popularity the older frames would still definately get put in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdunSaveMe Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 You know, it's not really as simple as going "which one is popular? We'll make that". If they don't come up with a good enough design or have something else in mind, it won't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unknow99 Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 - Oldest first,but not necessarily. - Male/male/female/female. If both conditions are met, the next prime will be either Banshee,Trinity or Saryn. Pear iode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katinka Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Having a poll wouldn't help if you have a problem with it being based on popularity. A poll would just make sure it was based on popularity... I feel the main driving force is which frame they have come up with a cool design that they are happy with. If that is the case, I would like it to stay that way. I would rather the artists gave us a fantastic looking Prime later than a forced and uninspired Prime now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrian3k Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 You make this topic after we got Volt Prime and then Ash Prime? Neither of them is very popular and both of them have been in the game from the very beginning. Also, Frost was a mere 2 months old and iirc the single most popular frame when Frost Prime was released. /thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YashiroSora Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Well, I'm sure Trinity and Banshee are next for primes, since with the exception of Ember, every prime that came out as of current has been in a trailer, and Banshee and Trinity definitely have, in the same one even. Trailers: The Call(Jun 5 2013)- Excalibur, Frost, Nyx, Ash Open Beta (March 21,2013)- Excalibur, Mag, Rhino, Loki The Profit (Nov 8,2013)- Trinity, Volt, Banshee, Rhino The Archwing(Nov 20,2014)- Excalibur, Loki, Nova, Valkyr Primes released: -Excalibur, beginning -Frost, May 3rd, 2013 -Mag, Sept. 13, 2013 -Ember, Nov.20, 2013 -Rhino, March 27, 2014 -Loki, June 11, 2014 -Nyx, Sept 23, 2014 -Nova, December 16,2014 -Volt, March 25, 2015 -Ash, July 7, 2015 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Stinja Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Tin foil hat theory: but Nova Prima and Soma Prime, two arguably very popular items, both came out pre-christmas, and post player-dip from Destiny. So maybe they came out to boost numbers, compared to the prime items that should of been due, but would not get people back to Warframe. Ultimately everything will get primed eventually, so just wait patiently for whatever it is one wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am curious to see how significant it holds with the upcoming pair. I want Banhee Prime, but I feel as though there isn't much wiggle room with her design for adding stuff, especially when it comes to her default helmet.
