DarkRinnegan Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 As the title says "What do people think about a legacy server?" I think it would be wonderful to get to experience old warframe again. Many other games do this so do you think DE should/would/can? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valiant Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 (edited) What 'legacy' though? We've gone through numerous updates which have been very significant and you can't please everyone. Edited December 4, 2017 by Valiant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N00B731O Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 @Valiant I think OP means pre U14, with the old Starchart and other things that we used to have. Personally I would like it but it just simply wouldn't be feasible IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterc3 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 There is no point. How many people would play it? How could it be monetized? What other work should be shelved to staff this project? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This game has changed far too much to try and cater to pieces of the community or even find the right era, as it were. I do think this is a bit of rose tinted glasses thing going on here. Like people going on about the old Void being 'better' and while some pieces may have been decent, the negatives hugely outweighed them and it wasn't as great as people think.

Wind_Blade Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 No warframe is not a game that was really good before. I imagine some nostalgic are affected by the memories of the discovery of warframe or not but it would be a big waste of money for DE. At the limit propose to be able to change the theme of the interface to put it as before or at best to be able to change the system of movement when have wants but that would be the limit.

Pizzarugi Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 I've seen what "legacy" servers do. Runescape has multiple going on since the fallout with their combat overhaul which has split the community up in 3 ways. A fraction plays on legacy combat servers, a large fraction plays on the oldschool servers, and the remainder play on current. The game has since become a ghost town. As nice as it might be to play older versions of the game, but for the sake of maintaining a populated community, I have to say legacy servers would be a terrible idea. Splitting the playerbase up would be detrimental to Warframe in the long term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well personally, I wouldn't ever play on it so for me, it's still no thanks. It might be nice to reminisce over, but that's about it. I can do that with some old YouTube videos. I also highly doubt it would be populated enough to warrant it. People might play it for a couple hours/ days, but I highly doubt anyone would consistently log in and play every day for any length of time.

People liked different periods of WF, not just the one you liked. WF simply isn't that sort of game with its updates which change the gameplay in leaps and bounds.
