[DE]Steve 17,213 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Tenno, My last big Dev Workshop was in June and that means time for a follow up. What did I tell you last time? Our summer plans. What we were hoping to achieve with splitting out Updates. Where are we now? What's next? What's going on? Where's the last part of the update, 'The War Within'? How much Bourbon has been consumed? You're asking me the same questions I'm asking myself. My team has been stupidly patient as we look back at Second Dream and scream 'we need to repeat that'. The pressure has been on all summer. We've had a summer of content and fixes go out, but the hype for big older brother (which we've hyped a lot) War Within just makes everything we've done feel… just less. Really I'm here to lay out October for you so you can get just excited about what's coming soon on PC. This week on PC we bring you 'The Vacuum Within'. To be fair you've been waiting longer for this than the War Within, so maybe this is the real best of the year deploy. No, we're not having 3 Mods make up Vacuum. We changed it. Vacuum is going to be passively built into every Sentinel, no Mods required. It will have a range of 5 meters which in practice looks something like this WIP (pro-Lotus skills hitting an enemy behind the locked door): https://gfycat.com/TepidSlimAmurminnow Later in October, The Corpus version of Rathuum is hitting PC. This game mode will be called 'The Index'. With it you'll get glimpse of Nef Anyo again! 'The Index' will feel a bit more classic DE in that it'll have an introduction to a new game mode with an Operation (clans rejoice), some Endless emphasis, and an event weapon! On PC, you can look forward to 'The Vacuum Within' this week. On PC, you can look forward to 'The Index' in October. On PC, you can look forward to War Within more than a month away. And for Console Tenno, The Long Shadow Tactical Alert is hopefully coming in October. An interim build before The War Within that will include the Corpus style Rathuum. Once The War Within is out our crazy 'break apart Updates' to bring you content faster will be heavily analyzed to see what it achieved. Many of our content creators appreciated us breaking things up for coverage purposes, but even that isn't enough to keep them around if the content itself didn't hit the mark. So there's a glimpse, an overview, a few paragraphs that explain what's going on here these days. It doesn't do the team's passion justice, but giving you all information is the best way for us to work together. We'll talk more on the Devstream Friday, everyone. Thanks, Steve Link to post Share on other sites
Haldos 5,696 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 No 3 mod split? Wow, that's going to make things much simpler. Thanks for the update! Really appreciate the information, Steve. Link to post Share on other sites

Vargras 17,445 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Thanks for keeping us in the loop, Steve. I'm sure a simple passive Vacuum will be appreciated by folks. I know the constant War Within delays have to be frustrating for ya. Just hang in there! Link to post Share on other sites
PsiWarp 7,928 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 (edited) I like that our Sentinels are basically space vacuums, but what about Kubrows and Kavats x) Edited October 4, 2016 by PsiWarp Link to post Share on other sites

NoggDog117 1,216 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Just now, Cyborg-Rox said: What's this "Index" you mention? My guess, Corpus Rathuum. Link to post Share on other sites
Fabpsi 5,718 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 "the vacuum within", I laughed xD Ty for the information, sounds like a nice sentinel passive about War Within: good things need time...guess it's better that way^^ Keep up the good work! Link to post Share on other sites
AEP8FlyBoy 6,438 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 (edited) *sigh* Back to Black Ops 2 for me then. The Vacuum changes look sweet, but... isn't the maximum range for Carrier's 10 meters? Not saying 5 meters isn't enough but, will Carrier's Vacuum become downgraded because of this change? If that's the case, that doesn't sound like a very good addition, at least for Carrier. Edited October 4, 2016 by AEP8FlyBoy Link to post Share on other sites
Solairris 192 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Thank you so much for continuing to keep us updated. I have more patience with you guys than any other dev team, great moves, keep it up, proud of ya. (P.S. will vacuum work for cats and dogs too? Will there be a space-Dyson attachment that we have to strap to their backs?) Link to post Share on other sites
TheVeiledScion 1,107 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 So this Index is a Corpus-style Rathuum event? Is that the Perrin Sequence quest? Link to post Share on other sites
-InV-igo95862 3,175 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Its still a nerf to Vacuum. The current one is 10-12 meters. I hope that Carrier will bring the Vacuum range to those values. Link to post Share on other sites
