Eldnacpeek Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 (edited) DE is continually trying to bring TennoGen to consoles. Simply asking is not going to make it happen. You have to consider the drastic amount of legal aspects when considering this type of distribution. The creators, Valve, and DE all receive payment from TennoGen purchases. This means in order to bring TennoGen to consoles, there has to be an agreement between DE, the creators, Valve, Sony, and Microsoft. The final two will always seem iffy in conjunction with one another. Please do not think DE doesn't want to bring TennoGen to consoles. If it can't happen, it can't happen. Unfortunate, but there's nothing you can do. If it can however, it may be a while from now. The only thing you can do is hope an agreement is made. If you're referring to PC players who don't use Steam though, that's an entirely different topic that hasn't really been elaborated upon. From what I've heard, TennoGen content creators agreed to actual currency directly to their Steam Wallet, not Platinum. If it were available for Platinum, Valve gets nothing. It simply won't work.

FrellingHazmot Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 (edited) De would definitely consider it but its not up to them since its all Steam related. It might change since they have steam consoles out now though. Edited May 13, 2016 by KWANi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)OmegAmorbis Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 I really hope it happens eventually, as some of the skins in particular are amazing looking, but no matter the outcome I at least appreciate that DE is trying as much as they are to hash something out.

Zoero Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I'm pretty sure this has been asked before a thousand times and inb4 "no", will there ever be an option to buy items from steam without having steam? Or am I forever bound to not be able to buy these since I didn't know I needed steam for extra content when I started playing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kai_Shiba Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 (edited) The Steam items in terms of the Rubedo/Phased skins are there to stay in Steam. The Tennogen items however are planned to be in-game without needing steam, though this process is going to take a looooooooooooooong time for it to happen due to Steam being a good base platform for content creators to A. Place their work in and B. Get paid directly each purchase. So don't get your hopes up. Short answer as of now, You do need steam.

I don't think it's good business practice to have two separate places to make an account where one has "benefits" over the official... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would just have to install it on the Steam platform and that's it. And they're just cosmetics, I don't see anything benefitting from each other.

Nope, you just login to your steam and launch the game from steam. I don't remember most of it, but I'm pretty sure it'll ask you if you want to link accounts.

Well you buy it ingame actually. Also, linking the accounts isn't too much, again it's your choice. There's a tab in the market for the steam items. It will only show up once you install/launch the game from steam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagPrime Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Its pretty easy to link accounts. I broke down and downloaded Steam to get the Knaita Mag skin, linked my accounts, bought the skin and haven't logged back in Steam Warframe since. Annoying that I have to jump through hoops but ultimately not a big deal for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evanescent Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I wonder if we should go on adding more and more skins to steam before this is resolved: what if DE can't? Then what happens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, it doesn't go directly to steam wallet (makes it unusable in real life, because you can't withdraw money from steam wallet) It goes directly to the bank accounts indicated by the artists.

Vlada91 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 (edited) This I can only buy with plats ( which is very good ) but unfortunately there is no such option for this.... Spoiler Why DE? Edited May 28, 2016 by Vlada91 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z3GR4M Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 Because they are user generated skins from the steam community... Thats literally it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLI7Z Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 I guess I'll pass on these ones. I don't play through Steam; I would love to buy some of them though, with platinum =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firetempest Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 The first tennogen was more like a contest. Outside of steam. Now its specifically through steam. Been like this for quite awhile now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)AngelShur Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 We need the promissed Tennogen for consoles... We're empty without. Our Fasion frames are incomplete as is at this moment. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredaven Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 I'm afraid platinum would do me as a creator little good. . Untill I can pay rent/food/catfood with DE platinum, money will have to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)N7PaladinN7 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 Oh wow sorry, I thought my post was deleted, it was more of a 'blind rage' moment, sorry kiddos. I wish DE can give us some feed back and if this is even possible rather than leave us in the dark. Be either a sad day or a blessing from every form of heaven day :D sorry again about that dumb complaint post, weird that it was moved here.

IfritKajiTora Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 (edited) I'm not sure if I should put it in general stuff, but I could not find anything that could match what I want to write. So I realy like Tennogen stuff, but I have in game a lot of platinum and I have nowhere to spend it, I mean I don't want to buy anything just to spend platinum, I just buy specific things I just want or need. Maybe there could be and option to trade in dojo TENNOGEN STUFF. So players could actually buy for example FROST TennoGen skin for 500plat or something like that. I could just write on trade that I want to buy TENNOGEN for plat, and I will give plat to guy and he will just gift me tennogen stuff, but yeah its a risk. I will give someone plat and he will jsut ignore me, and ofcourse support can't do aything to that, because that Trades are not like supposed to happen, not truly allowed. So I would just see the stuff like that, to trade with TennoGen stuff in dojo. Is this possible? That would be fantastic.
