Chef_Lu_Bu Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Would you be excited about a quadrupedal or millipedal style of legs/movement for a future warframe? Perhaps something more naga-esque or a centaur? Should all frames have 2 arms and 2 legs and one head or is there room in the future space ninja golem genre for something with a bit more in the body part department.

VectorWolf Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Yes! I want Arachne frame, and centaur frame, and frame with six arms! +1 from me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dromeos-Prime Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Considering how much work it would take to animate, model, and code in the interactions with the environment; the chances of something like that to be a thing are essentially zero.

A shiva frame, that hadn't even occurred to me. You only carry melee but you get to carry three melee? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, maybe not. I'm not the designers at DE, but Hi-Rez games does it with Smite with obviously less environment interaction but no less diversity of character.

Yes, but in smite do the characters do backflips, climb up walls, dodge and glide in the air, and most importantly do they perform highly acrobatic melee attacks? For example how in the world would a centaur or naga do the scythe, glaive and other floaty stances? There are just to many problems with this concept for it to be a thing in a game as acrobatic as Warframe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is, there are a lot shared animations, like dropping from the liset at the beginning of a mission, kneeling at the various sitting spots, playing with a kubrow, parkour, etc. They would have to kinda remake all of those.

Catacomb Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 I just thought about this, what about extra limbs that are not always there, like either they fold on his back (or anywhere), his existing limbs split into more, or are materialized only when needed (similar to Ivara's bow), that way the warframe can do most of the shared animations, and pop his extra arms or legs only during missions(combat,running and for his skills). Kind of a compromise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo3602 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Well there could be a warframe that could work similarly to Equinox except one of the two forms is non-humanoid and has different ranged and melee attacks to make up for it's inability to use weapons normally as well as only being able to hack and do other similar actions while in "human" form.

Though this would be amazing, it would bring up many problems such as: When extracting from a mission Weapon usage It would need it's very own animations just to move, jump, wall dash, slide, bullet jumping and how would it use other animations, such as limbo agile. Archwing just to name a few Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to see a Naga Esque or millipede style of frame. As for the back flips and other parkour movement issues. A frame with a millipede wouldn't at least need near as much movement like that. Instead it could have altered wall stick and climb, where it could not only hang onto walls or ceilings but move with out the risk of falling off. 37 minutes ago, Neo3602 said: Well there could be a warframe that could work similarly to Equinox except one of the two forms is non-humanoid and has different ranged and melee attacks to make up for it's inability to use weapons normally as well as only being able to hack and do other similar actions while in "human" form.

Something like "werewolf-frame" with ultimate to turn into quadruped creature with unique moveset and melee combos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lancars Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 I'd love a frame that can swap mods from 2 legs to other. Sorta like how equinox works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(PSN)FriendSharkey Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 I'd actually like to see Archwings go from wings that we wear to animalistic and space ship mecha designs independent of the Warframe. Archwings feel like their own game just waiting to happen instead of being a throw away experience for too many. Also... I hope they can get better animation on are stealth crawl. I feel like we should be gliding across the ground like mongooses, instead of the comical toilet bowl crawl we have now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
----Fenrir---- Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 I know a little bit about doing 3d animations and I very much doubt they will do this. We are talking about a truly MASSIVE amount of time and work required here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tzolkat Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 A naga frame jumping from the landing craft or a grate in the ceiling at mission start.. I don't know why but the mental image of this makes me laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps waframes should be able to resort to all fours for certain moves while crouched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
