Umbra Warframes (Discussion Thread)

Recommended Posts

Honestly, I watching how DE has avlided the umbra topic for a while and all steve has done is giving vague info about it, I doubt this week devstream gives any info on umbra, in fact I guess getting some info about it one ir two devstreams before release, and that if they don't decide simply throw him on any patch without previous clue.

Anyways any info on Umbras would be very appreciated, just to show how they're not stalling as many of us think they are

in all fairness they did post stating

"With the release of U18 we have more time to focus on doing a proper release of Excalibur Umbra. We will definitely provide more information on the Umbra release when we're closer to launch."

Didn't remember that, but on the other hand, to me that feels like a simple "stop asking, please" pill to pacify players. Anyways we can't do other than keep waiting, and hopefully we get umbra on 18.5 (not likely due to how close it might be) or early april in worst of cases.

yes that may be the case, the twitter post initially gave the premise of 2 months from dec 31

 

so February was the likely target date.

Define "close to launch". I've kind of lost trust in Steve's statements, considering he said that the reason Umbra wasn't released last year was because they "didn't want it to get buried underneath the other content". Hopefully Umbra will have a nice, two minutes in the spotlight on Devstream 67 instead of a three second brush off like "We need a stable system, stop asking please."

It'd be great if the permanently defined "close to launch".

you mean like the tyhpus hype incident ? were it was mentioned then never talked about again .....

 

in all honesty im ok with a "he will have his own story cinematic trailer ect and gives us teasers.

 

that would be fine then spilling all the fun surprises, but a clearer launch or progress on it is needed

 

OP update: cleaned up for ease of info access  

 

also added a new custom banner make it more..interesting

I'm of the mind that the Primes are akin to the "Royal Guard" or the public appearance of Warframes, the normal frames are akin to traditional soldiers, and the Umbra will be something akin to death squads working under the Orokin, who carry out the very dirty work which would have been extremely questionable even by the Orokin public.

Something something Morag Tong.

no

agreed. it would not be fair, and as a true alternative frame to standard Excalibur (and founder prime)

i feel it should be a quest completion based story mode

 

I.E. complete second dream

 

but have challenges and puzzles that need to be solved 

Something something Morag Tong. 

elder scrolls fan are we ?

I've never been a big fan of Typhus. But I share the utter disappointment for those who must be dying for him to be implemented into the game. Like you said; I'd be pretty happy for anything right about now, but that doesn't mean a little snippet of "He's coming SoonTM". I'm talking like a full two to three minutes of talk time in DevStream 67.

Quest? New kind of PA? Who cares, just tell us please.

Also nice banner. Gives the thread an even more official feel +10.

Yep :>

 

Stalker already has body of Excal Umbra (not whole but still), but without these "wings" on arms. I'm wondering if after Umbra update Stalker will have these "wings" or they are exclusive for Chinese Umbra. DE said our Umbra and Umbra Prime are virtually identical, so logicaly Stalker should have whole body of Umbra.

 agreed a small chat would at least reduce the steam some users have built up. or perhaps pour gas to fire....

 

also thanks , just trying to tidy up the OP

not sure why thread spam of umbra started up again. the mega thread was created to centralize these discussions 

 

also clarify the many questions routinely asked about umbra(s)

 

im not sure if they are misinformed or just not checking the OP ? 

 

weve had LONG talks on the stalker and umbra and came out with some good logic on it

What you're pointing out in this thread, which sticks to facts, are visual similarities between Stalker and Umbra Excalibur, which are quite hard to be denied.

We don't know what that means, sure, but the connection between Stalker and Umbra is clear.

What is not, instead, is Umbra having Stalker powers or other frames' power, which is sign of misinformation and just wild speculation, as a moderator pointed out in another thread.

So no one here or anywhere is saying Umbra and Stalker are not connected and for sure all th good info are here.

I myself always link your thread as the main source on the matter.

The rest is just spreading false info and claiming own speculations are facts.
