TGDM Posted July 14, 2016 Author Share Posted July 14, 2016 Editorial update: "Analysis of Warframe Abilities: Duration and Range Base Values" Quote In Warframe, you control a character which has access to a variety of abilities which grow in strength and magnitude as you play. Your progression is marked by a notable increase in power with these abilities which can make a substantial difference in the flow of combat. The abilities differ between each class of Warframe - the powered suits which the players control - and provide combat utility, support for allies, or pure destructive power against your enemies. These abilities can be further modified using upgrade modules players can earn through gameplay as well. The focus of this article is to analyze a variety of these abilities with a primary focus on base values for Range and Duration effects and how they are used. Unlike some of the other pieces I've written in the past, this article is much more opinion oriented. The central focus of this article is to highlight issues with base duration and range on a variety of abilities and the disconnects they cause in gameplay. Warframe has grown in the past few years to have a very mobile and fast-placed combat system. A variety of new mechanics have been added to the game and there have been massive changes to the core design of the ability system in general. The result is a gap which continues to grow between various abilities as they once were when first added and what they have become as the game has grown beyond them. This article will make the case for why the Duration and Range attributes should be adjusted for a variety of abilities. Check the link for the full article!

TGDM Posted August 11, 2016 Author Share Posted August 11, 2016 Editorial update: "The Failures of Focus" Quote Focus was added to Warframe as part of The Second Dream quest included with Update 18.0 in December 2015. The cinematic quest has been highly praised by the Warframe community as an exciting first step toward unveiling the secrets of the Tenno — the player character faction — and breathing new life into the game by introducing new content and gameplay systems. Though by no means a complete source, the steamcharts.com page shows a gain of 11,900 players in the month of December. That's nearly double the amount of players which were lost in the previous month of November. This update introduced Focus - a new progression system bound to your account designed as an endgame advancement system. This article provides an analysis of the Focus system to support the claim that Focus has failed as an endgame system. This month's topic got... a bit longer than I originally anticipated. I started putting feedback together for the Focus system when it was released and kept track of all the changes made to and around it in the following months. The article provides an in-depth analysis and sources to support its claims. This article has a sister post here on the Official Forums for discussion.

TGDM Posted September 8, 2016 Author Share Posted September 8, 2016 Editorial update: "Analysis of Warframe's Updating Schedule" Quote At a time of uncertainty for the future of the company, Digital Extremes launched the Warframe Open Beta on March 18, 2013. Regarded by fans as the spiritual successor to the game Dark Sector, Warframe became a burden of love for Digital Extremes which was meant to be everything they had wanted to be in Dark Sector but could not accomplish. In an interview earlier this year at PAX East 2016, Warframe's Creative Director Steve Sinclair spoke briefly on the origins of Warframe and the struggle to find a publisher for the game. One of the publishers had essentially told him "You guys will fail. You guys will make a beautiful game and you'll never update it. You won't be able to update it." The developers were faced with rejection and grim projections of their future as they approached different publishers and yet three years later Warframe is still alive and well with a vigorous update cycle. This article provides an analysis of Warframe's Update schedule for the PC platform by visualizing the data from the past three years of updates.

Exhausted by the thousands of hours spent over the last three years, these veteran players have lost interest in the ever-unchanging Warframe as they run out of things they want to do.
