aligatorno Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 (edited) We`ll get rid of it once they are contempt with what they've built and there are no plans of major changes to the game, focusing only on adding content instead of reworking the current one.

Hypernaut1 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Nah. PoE shows me that instead of "finishing" Warframe, they'll just roll it's sequels into this client until they don't feel like making WF anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perpetual Beta What we see now is how Warframe will continue to be until the game is no longer profitable and DE shuts the servers down. Erasing all our time, money, and effort.

I think DE could do with reviewing the Open Beta Agreement. We should be able to choose if we want to reset or not individually, and benefit from it - like Forma.

Warframe is the kind of game that benefits more from being in Beta all the time, though quality-wise Warframe could've been a full game all the way back to Update 14, when quests, player ships, and the UI rework was added.

Atleast those successfull one, not those which release one update in year If they stop creating new major updates with content and keep game only in fixing bugs state, thats the end of beta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypernaut1 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I honestly wouldn't mind starting over if they left or if accounts open on a legacy server. I wouldn't mind experiencing WF as a new player again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as your accounts never interact with eachother, e.g. never trade or send gifts or multibox, then multiple accounts are fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some games wipe out user accounts when the game leaves beta, so that everybody starts out on equal footing and so that they can get rid of excessive amounts of player wealth or special tools that were given out during the beta period to help with testing. So, in games like that, you really only want to start playing during beta testing if you're okay with your progress being deleted eventually. As a result some people only pay attention to online games once they end their beta, because at that point your progression is safe. However, Digital Extremes has already said many times that there will be no account wipes. Warframe is in beta only so far as they want to people to understand that the game is constantly evolving and changes, sometime significant changes, are always possible. The game is not "done", so overhauls of systems, items, and balance can come at any time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bouldershoulder Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Seeing how much grind it takes to get most of the stuff, especially the log-in rewards, it's not just highly unlikely, but straight out impossible they will ever reset their player base. That open-beta thing was written over 4 years ago and DE themselves said they never imagined this game will go so far. The moment they do this, they're finished. So forget about all this beta/non-beta nonsense and enjoy the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miser_able Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I wonder though, if a reset did happen, how much platinum would I get back? I know I've spent quite a bit, but after 4-ish years I've forgotten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now think how much money they'll have to refund to people who bought prime access frames,weapons and accessories with actual money. They'd go bankrupt in a split second.

(PSN)xiinic Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 i think the reason they stay in open beta is so they can make major changes. obviously they can still add content if the game was 'complete' but they wont be able to make changes like parkour 2.0 for example Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
