Prime Time #126: Vandal Reaction Poll

[Lanadra]

Also, all this talk of exclusivity, there is one little piece of exclusivity I am proud of, a skin that most likely not that many people have:

I like using this on my Braton Prime every now and then.

To be honest I don't use it at all, it breakes my fashion frame. I once recollored everything, every frame and every weapon so it fits with IAH Braton :| it wasn't worth it

Does it even exist tough? I know it once leaked and everyone had it as default skin, but I don't think it was ever released

Fashion frame supreme!

I personally don't use Braton Prime enough to tailor a color set to the IAH Braton skin, especially since I also use a color set across all frames and weapons.

wow, yeah, that's pretty rare. First time I've seen this skin in modern day warframe. Something even rarer is the nvidia skin, not sure if that's still in the game or if they retrieved it.

It's been retrieved, the only form in which the Nvidia skin was released, was as a bug, making all standard Bratons use the skin.

Safe to say, likely nobody has it.

ah, that's a shame, still, though, it then makes this probably the rarest skin on any weapon by far. I'de love to see something rarer if you have something up your sleve, I love rare collectables :P

I don't think I do, the IAH Braton skin is the rarest thing I got I think, not counting vaulted primes, that skin was only shortly available and you had to make a new account through IAHGames to get a code for it.

If they never brought the topic up in the first place and stayed with their promise that these remain exclusive we would not be here in this position at this time. You state something as exclusive and you stick with that word and NEVER consider re-introduction of it again as it was stated 5/2013

If I was of a cynical disposition I would think the main reason this was brought up was to deflect attention away from what a complete flustercluck the latest update was ;)

I think Rixty Aklato Skin might be rarer, It required you to buy plat through Rixty... shame that Rixty didn't work for me

Anyway, I think we've gone slightly offtopic

I was in the early beta, but I never recieved either weapons. Obviously I didn't get in early enough, but even though I was stillin the game super early on in the development, and still didn't receive them, I DON'T think they should return to the general populous. They are unique weapons that signify one's dedication to the game. Just because someone has something that we can't have, doesn't mean we should automatically be able to have it. Just like those who have priceless works of art or sculptures that are made by a famous artist, that doesn't mean that those works should be duplicated and made available for purchase.

The only exception I might offer is that, like how artificial duplicates of sculptures or art, they have less value, and in the game's case, worse stats, or are distinctly different from the originals.

So give console a Lato vandal and Braton vandal with different stats, works for me as long as its significantly better than the Lato.

If the main reason for not wanting the vandals to return is to show off how long you been supporting the game, DE should consider to add in the date when you started playing in a visible spot to others, like in the main profile page ingame or something. Some exclusive skin to the original owners of both guns should be more than sufficient. 

Im proud of being a Founder of this game because i have the feeling i helped this game to start and to become what it is today, not because i have some gear that others dont.

And from my experince in this game i lost some good friends/players because the fact that they could never reach my mastery rank because of those said exclusives.

This makes sense actually also because I'd like to know when I started playing.

Well, you can check that in the website profile, not the forum one, the main website account.

It used to give you number of years and months, But with new design of mainsite it only shows how many years you've played

I am pretty sure the only things that were officially declared exclusive were the founder items and the said everything except the founder items has a chance, however small, to come back.

The Vandal situation is a bit more complicated as in the forums Rebecca called those weapons exclusives, but in private Steve(or Scott, can't remember) stated something like "never say never". 

I'm 100% for them coming back, but let's say to be fair that those weapons were said to be exclusive more than not at the beginning.

They have publicly said on several devstreams that everything minus the founder stuff has a chance to come back. So no one can truly get mad at their so called "exclusives" being rereleased because they weren't really exclusive to begin with. You just had to be playing at the right time.

I totally agree and I don't even think founders' stuff should be exclusive, was just reporting the facts as at the very, very beginning Rebecca posted a faq stating Vandal weapons were not coming back; I think someone posted it here some pages ago. 

It was also in a time when Warframe could have likely lasted less than a year in Dr's mind, we all have to remember that when judging those early choices. 

That said, I'm glad they're reconsidering it now as as you said I don't think they should have been exclusive at all in the first place. 

Damage is done tho and now it wouldn't really be fair to release them again without some sort of compensation, no matter if we think it's deserved or not.
