goggles2 Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 even the toughest content in the game is easily doable without rivens rivens are not an argument for p2w on top of that theres nothing stopping you from farming your own rivens ive never paid plat for a riven and i dont grind my face off at warframe but i still have 3 or 4 "god tier" rivens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omega Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 (edited) Yes, Warframe is P2W. Tennogen/FashionFrame is endgame (well, for PC users Q.Q) Edited April 20, 2018 by VengefulMaelstrom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Bojack- Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 By definition it IS. BUT You can atleast eventualy earn ingame the means to obtain stuff that is bought. FYI the deffinition is (paraphrased) : Paying real life money, ether directly or via special currency, to obtain items in game that give an advantage within the games playable mechanics that is otherwise not obtainable by those who do not pay money, or otherwise requires intense grinding and high numbers of hours of play time to aquire. A simple example is this. Take 2 new players, one who spends money on plat, one that doesnt. The one that does can easily out perform the one that doesnt by buying things like Orokin catalysts and reactors, and rushing build jobs, aswell as immediatly being able to buy items from other players on the market with that plat. The one without paying for plat, cannot. Hence by deffinition of P2W, Warframe IS Pay 2 Win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Visegrip117 Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 If I would have read this yesterday I would have answered 100% no. But today while everyone is accessing all the guns and mods and fashions that Baro has ever sold, and if you didn’t spend $20 real money, you can’t access it. I’d have to lower that percentage down some. Still not a over the top damage for cash game though, and DE has been good to the community for the most part.

This is literally a "Thank you" for supporting the game and making Tennocon happen. Baro coming back with everything he's ever sold is simply just that, a thank you for the support and a way to give those celebrating Warframe something in return when they can't be there IRL. It's also a clever way to get everyone together like a Virtual con in the relays, talking about the events on the stream and news together as well. We still have to work our asses off for the ducats lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Visegrip117 Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 I’m aware of what it is. But most thank yous don’t come with a price tag on them. But the bang is worth the buck in my opinion. I just don’t like access to in game stuff behind a Pay wall esp a wall that I’m willing to pay for but didn’t know anything about till now lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leland_Gaunt Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 (edited) It's not PTW since there is nothing to win. More like pay for convenience Edited July 7, 2018 by Leland_Gaunt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And still no "winning" to pay for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have all together is just to buy and sell their stuff to impatient people or just because you want something and don't want to wait till he brought it again. So no, Tennocon baro isn't a p2w.

Auxeus Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 There is nothing to win in a Co-op Pve game, but without buying booster i will never spend that much time max daily Focus to max my Operator into a god! And use high end builds without those rare mods to make my future mission runs like a boss. So P2W? It certainly has some feel to it and not at the same time.

(PSN)reddragonhrcro Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 It's funny to see P2W being thrown around which clearly shows that people don't understand what it really means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knight_Ex Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 I can spend money to purchase plat which allows me to purchase godlike rivens which in turn allow me to blow past other people in terms of combat prowless, aka one shotting enemies, getting through content faster, so yes in a sense warframe is totally P2W, do I care? No not really as there are no real competitive elements in the game aside from leaderboards and how much more efficiently I can kill enemies than other people.

But here's the catch, you'd still need to be the MR to use them. Gotta play before you can even pay in a way.
