TouFuub Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 (edited) On 3rd March, 2017 (NOT 2k18 thx @Carnage2K4), Devstream 89, DE has proposed a new Equinox Alt Helmet (See Devstream 89 Overview for the art: https://www.warframe.com/news/devstream-89-overview) As of the date of this thread posted, it's already one year since the announcement of such Alt Helmet. In fact, it's already 19 streams before Devstream 108 when it's announced. Therefore, while we patiently waiting for Venus open world and The Sacrifice quest, can we just kindly remind the developers that Equinox's Alt Helmet has been on hold for one year since its announcement?

sleepychewbacca Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 (edited) To be fair, what probably happened was DE went into full PoE preparation. Everything else that wasn't crucial ended up being pushed to the side. coughumbracough Edited March 17, 2018 by sleepychewbacca reasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xgomme Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 They already said they lost the files for this helmet. So it's almost canceled at this point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will doubt if they would care about it at this point, since there will always be 'new major projects' in the Art Team. And comparing a helmet design to major projects that involved great effort from Art Team, re-making a helmet that has a conceptual design shown already by themselves in the devstream (i.e. take the image they have posted as reference) isn't really that significant and time-consuming. But I can't be the judge here on their working efficiency, or how they will/ can work it out. Accidents do happen all the time, but it shows how much you care about it when you try to correct what has happened.

There is a lot of announced thing and the 10-20% which happens in reality the majority of the announced items pushed back or just scrapped. If you remember the weakspots then you know what I said.

The file for the helmet was corrupted, which is a pretty common occurrence for computer hardware. The artist who was modelling it pretty much had to start again from scratch, on top of his other commitments to everything else - new open world(s) likely needed lots of brand new assets too.

In fact, in Devstream 87, DE has mentioned their concept of Sentient Carrier on Lua. kylooooren, in the thread of Coming Soon: Devstream #108!, has asked about it. So there are more things to think and remember too :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it's a shame to hear that. Nothing is as important as new open worlds nowadays, it's just a cool little helmet concept that can be done again afterall. I mean if they could care about it that's cool, but I guess they are just too busy on bigger things when they could have cared about it, considering the fact that such big project as Open World concept was and should be planned before.

Scrapping up concepts and [DE]laying stuffs have been the tradition already so I can't really blame at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TouFuub Posted March 17, 2018 Author Share Posted March 17, 2018 Just for the record, info of Equinox Alt Helmet has been asked for many times in previous Coming Soon: Devstream x since Devstream 89 so it's not a rare question to ask for the status of the helmet.

Guest Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Makes me feel bad just seeing that helmet. It looks real nice compared to what Equinox has now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks real nice compared to what Equinox has now... Considering that Equinox has limited cosmetic choice (i.e. Tennogen skin and the Solstice Alt Helmet), it IS quite sad to see. Like when you compare to e.g. Atlas, Wukong or Ivara who came out later but not too late from Equinox's release (within the year when Equinox was released), they had already have their second alt helmet along with different purchasable cosmetic skins/ helmets.

First of all, no matter how carefull you are, data loss is always a possibility, for some goddamn reason 3d files are prone to corruption...

(PSN)Lei-Lei_23 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Yeah, I was really stoked about the concept on the bottom left: I mean even if they did lose the files for the helmet, I wouldn’t mind being patient to see this beauty get released Eventually(tm). All I need to hear/read is a confirmation from DE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I need to hear/read is a confirmation from DE. Well that's the problem, some things DE has mentioned before didn't really mentioned again for a long time, either got distracted by more heated topics or scrapped without much notifications, especially for those that are non-major and not as significant as some other big projects. We'll just need to hope for the best, probably they will look at it again SoonTM after those Open World projects and The Sacrifice. But at this point I really doubt it. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe they WILL look at it SoonTM, but for now, I don't really have high hope for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xgomme Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Hurry up DE, or it will belong to Tennogen Jokes aside, just tried a fast sculpt on Sculptris. But if DE really drop the concept something can be done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if DE really drop the concept something can be done Something something passion project something something solo developer. The sad thing is that it seems DE doesn't want to commit to deadlines and ETA's given the Wait Within situation. However, the lack of replies can give the feeling to anyone who wasn't there during that time the feeling like things are just being ignored. Plus the way they communicate needs a bit more work imo. Even something like, "we've noticed this issue, and work is being done" would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And since Tennogen IS a thing, DE better be quick or else. ;) (I think I'm going to refrain myself from using "SoonTM" SoonTM :P) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
