Those crescent gold bits on his lower arm and elbows and on his helmet stick out too much to be aesthetically pleasing to normal people. i did suggest early on that scarf should be an auxiliary but also that the umbra parts like prime parts can be toggle able with tennogen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Essentially mindless automatons or mindless beasts with little to no self-determination. That is, until the Tenno come into play. The Tenno = a merger of those Warframes with self-deterministic beings capable of conscious thought and free will, therefore choice. The controllers of the Warframes, both Primes and other mass-produced variants. The Umbra = nomadic Warframes, with their own inherent consciousness, that have no masters, that have no symbiotic relationship with anything, but rather exist on their own, and are completely self-deterministic. Either with having some form of AI present. Or instead, some form of complete consciousness transferral from a once-living being that gives them their self-deterministic nature. This is what I've been thinking. I'm glad you summarised it for me! If you look back at the old Codex entries for Rhino, it states that the frame came to life in a primitive way, destroying the lab it was being held in. Now we're unsure if this was the operator doing this, or if this is what the frames are capable of without the Operators to control them. I believe this is the first instance of proof that the Warframes have some sort of consciousness. Using this theory, it would explain why the Stalker was so stunned after seeing your operator, as a child, controlling the Warframes. Perhaps the Stalker is an autonomous Warframe. It does say he's been around for thousands of years watching the Tenno, so I guess he's had alot of time to evolve from this primitive being, into his own persona. I can see Umbra being the autonomous Warframes with no operators. And in the future, as we have balanced the scales before, we have controlled the Primes of the Orokin (Light), it makes sense for us to control the Umbra (Dark). We are the middle ground in which holds the Balance of Light and Dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are the middle ground in which holds the Balance of Light and Dark. Pretty much. Blurring the lines between good and evil seems to be a major trend nowadays in story-telling and this fits right in with the status quo. Us, the operators, essentially giving into our darker aspects somewhat, and using the abilities / benefits that gives us for what we subjectively perceive to be the good of the system. (Let's not forget that good and evil are subjective in nature, simply put, their definition depends on the subjective point of view - e.g. if Umbras are sentient, they likely see regular Primes as evil or bad due to their lack of self-determination and autonomy).

It's no different to tennogen items which can only be bought via steam, they're not pc exclusive, they're steam exclusive because you can't buy them on the pc without using steam (remember there is a standalone client for this game). Tennogen items (some of them) are available on consoles, you can buy them with platinum. It's possible that all tennogen items will reach consoles eventually. But Onyx won't be accessible there. That's the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaero Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 I wonder why originator (founder) pack in Chinaframe is still being sold. It seems it just doesn't have a time limit. This might mean there will be no Excalibur Umbra in Chinaframe. Instead, Chinese non-founder players can always purchase Excalibur Umbra Prime.

IIRC all PAs there are constantly available. But founder pack is meant to be a limited offer. This can be a hint to what our global Excal Umbra will be. How different will it be from Chinese Excal Umbra Prime. My bet is that the word "Prime" is the only difference. But if it's really like that, and we will be able to get Excal Umbra during (or after) the cinematic quest, what will Chinese non-founder players get? Nothing? It wouldn't be fair to them. And if they get a frame identical to founder-exclusive item (besides the name) it wouldn't be fair to founders. But the fact that Excal Umbra Prime is always available for purchase kinda solves the issue. You want Umbra - you buy it. You don't care - you pass.

I kind of see tennogen on console as different to tennogen on pc because of the legal requirements on pc.... while they're technically the same item you can only buy them via steam on the pc (which makes them a steam exclusive on pc) while you can use plat iirc on console.

Not gonna argue about steam/pc exclusives, I'm just saying there is a difference between Onyx and Tennogen skins/helmets, with the difference being that Onyx won't be released on consoles. Saying a tennogen skin on steam is different to tennogen skin on console is the same as saying that prime accessories on PC are different to prime accessories on consoles because you additionally get platinum on console after purchase.
