Umbra warframes [Discussion & Appreciation][*spoilers*]


Recommended Posts

Ooh boy... I thought that my hype had been snuffed out, but then the Apostasy Prologue came out. Then give it a few months and I'm out of it again, and I move on to better pursuits such as accumulating more Warframes, then all of a sudden this trailer pops up with the hypesite...

And now... 

It's Infinity War all over again.

Both of them seem to be the same sword considering the shape.

yep just placed differently

 

wonder if they are a set like ...teshins dual nikanas?

Hopefully this will lead to confirmation of Umbra being an NPC and the new warframe being the reward for sacrifice.

Releasing a founder exclusive is a big no-no.

Umbra is exclusive to Chinese founders.

Founder items do not get re-released.

Given the storyline focuses on eidolons, having a warframe that uses their power makes the make sense.

It also wouldn't make sense that a Variant warframe comes from a quest, as this has never happened before.

Not really since they weren't around when the game was in it's starting phase. Their "founders" pack is not even time limited, it's like a prime access that's permanently there.

They still shouldn't ever go back on exclusivity, it's an extremely scummy thing for a developer to do.

DE didn't do anything scummy here, it was all agreed on with the Chinese publisher. It is exclusive to those who purchased it within the chinese region as Excalibur Umbra Prime while global is getting Excalibur Umbra as a quest reward.

guys, ignore him, hes the same guy from a couple months ago, he just doesnt now when hes lost and should be quiet

Given you don't have Umbra. Nor Excalibur Prime. And the new warframe most likely isn't Umbra. I don't see how that's a loss. 😄

"With Excalibur Prime on Founders lockdown in the Global build, we were tasked to create a version of Excalibur Prime for the China PC build...but it had to be different. Our Prime Warframes varied in Light and Dark colour schemes, so Mynki thought a dark version of Excalibur Prime would be cool. At the time, we were also working on PBR and newer cloth physics, and Umbra was an early test of that with extra shiny trim and a flowing syandana. The result was Excalibur Umbra. However...the concept for Umbra's design is not nearly as intriguing as our plans for it in the future. - Dave, Producer!"

Sounds very much like they're not intending to bring it back and instead aim to make something new. 

 

Hopefully it'll be a unique aesthetic and not copy Excal Prime so directly.
