MonsieurZero Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 (edited) I really love what was done with Captain Vor, new design, new voiceover, new animations, new battle mechanics, everything [kudos to the Devs and Design Team]. However, the special treatment that Vor received makes the rest of the Warframe bosses [at least the ones that I've battled, I have yet to defeat a few of them] seem dull in comparison, as they [iMO] lack the uniquity that Vor now wields. So, my question is this; are the rest of the bosses bound to receive a complete overhaul, something that makes them stand out -and stand over their respective race- as "bosses" Something more... profound... than a size difference, reskin or colour tweak. I believe I heard something on Livestream #10 about a boss that was three stories in height. Was this the description of a revamping of J3-Golem, a void boss, or a practical joke? The reason I'm asking is because if this was a revamping of J3-Golem, then my initial question will be answered with that fact.

I doubt DE would be such teases, in the event they get called out and raged at lol. Edited July 18, 2013 by Ronin666 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coripeta Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I heard on the Livestream #9 they will make some changes to Jackal (minor changes i think) and then Sargas ruk will be the lucky one to "reborn" (i can be wrong though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghobe Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Vor is actually the second boss to receive his revamp. The first was Lech Kril whom I'm guessing you haven't met yet. Jackal is also a pretty ok designed boss(his knockdown period and amount of health lost between phases needs tweaked still). The next boss to get a revamp is indeed the J3-Golem. They've been talking about it for quite a while. He was originally supposed to revamp into an amalgamation of all infested enemies as one, but they've apparently changed to make him a 5-6 story tall boss of which they haven't really said anything about. After Golem, Sargas Ruk is the next boss that's getting a revamp(or maybe not, but they definitely said they're looking at him. I only make note of this because they've been talking about the Golem revamp since before we even heard about Vor being changed). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lumireaver Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Golem concept art: Redesigns of all old bosses are incoming. I heard Saturn (Ruk?) is due for an overhaul soon, alongside the Golem. Ruk will probably be finished in time for the new Grineer tile-set.(speculation) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lautalocos Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 i think they will rework most bosses, if not all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalGerbil Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 vor is not the first remake of a boss. its happened a few times before. just part of the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lumireaver Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 vor is not the first remake of a boss. its happened a few times before. This too. Ambulas used to be a Corpus fellow named Arn Etina, who was a Moa for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phextsen Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Some of the bosses seem unique as they are now both in gameplay and appearance but some of them could do with being more than a palette swap appearance wise. I always assumed they where simply place holders until they could get around to making them more unique anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now THAT's a boss!!! *ahem* You are correct, I have yet to face him. Thank you knowledgeable sir, I believe my initial question has been answered. I only hope that the redesigns in the future look as amazing as him and Captain Vor. Edited July 18, 2013 by MonsieurZero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamnikPucek Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 (edited) As far as I know, most bosses are more or less placeholders right now. Some give a better idea of what to expect, others are just generic-ish more powerful mob variants. And yeah, Vor was not the first one in the "boss overhaul" project, so yeah, ultimately all bosses are intended to be a tad more complex and different from regular mobs then they are right now.

Boomstick720 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 As others have said, yes it can be assumed that all the bosses are getting a makeover. Lech Kril was the first, and IMO the best in the game right now. Vor was next, and he's probably the second best boss in the game now. I'm really looking forward to J3-Golem, cause he is basically just a toxic ancient with a pull gimmick now (Then again, most of the bosses are "standard enemy, but with this gimmick"). In all honesty, I'd love to see Nef Anyo remade over Ruk. Yeah Ruk could use a bit of work, but Nef Anyo is so forgetable and horrendously bad as a boss that I think he really needs to be looked at. Same thing could be said with Tyl Regor in a way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neKroMancer Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I think boss remake is a part of update9 effort to polish the game. Sargus Ruk and Golem are next waiting to be remade. What they did to Lech Kril was a bit Nintendo-ish, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLI-fox Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Here's hoping all the bosses get some sort of buff and new designs. I am personally waiting on a void boss, now THAT would be some scary s#1]! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
