(PSN)drollive96 Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 It is never said when this game takes place and that has always intrigued me. i know it isn't millions of years in the future because all of the continents on earth are the same as today. but im assuming its at least 1000 years in the future given how long it would take to terra form all the planets (mars and venus seem to have breathable atmospheres and plant life). anyone have any ideas or theories?

Noioiy Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Far enough when humans get bored of the term 'human' and switch to 'Orokin'. And find so much gold that they start using it like steel in construction. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

direcyphre Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 So far in the future that... time is meaningless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deidaku Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 I read somwhere ( can't quote can't remember) it was about 2000 years into the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tain_OSkoom Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Multiple successive apocalypse scenarios kinda make the date kinda irrelevant. But for the sake of Chaos, I'll say that the Tenno live in the year 40000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Redemption_015 Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Well considering the Orokin Empire were capable of interstellar travel, creating highly intelligent machines, terraforming and hollowing out the moon (to name a few) I would say we're very far into the future.

Hemmo67 Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 the game takes place in year 9267482987183784678611381213875862178372784623541898147171641874634726 hope that clears it for you :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way of telling at all how far in the future. I thinks its fascinating how there are still influences and references to what we currently call ancient civilizations.

Depending on how much time has passed Sedna's distance from the sun can vary between 75 and 940 astronomical units. 5 minutes ago, WhiteMarker said: Where was that ever stated?

No source = never happened. And again: Why do you guys think it even takes place in the future. It could even take place in the past in a whole different universe. The names of the planets are just a coincidence, or better: It was way easier for DE to take names for the planets that already existed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its easier to just assume it is the same universe but its not like there's a lot of relevant history except for what DE has made up for future events (future in our time, past in the warframe universe). Its a non issue Edited April 27, 2016 by Plushy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And no, its better for them to actually take some time and make sure the places in their universe are modeled after the real planets and places with some degree of realism and authenticity. Speaking of discrepancies from reality, there's still the issue of Tau's sun not shining in the correct light according to one of the codex entries. Nothing a retcon can't fix, but I hope it's just a mystery hint they've planted intentionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
