Cephalon Fragments: Warframe s Lore Easter Eggs Explained

All of the purchasable goods can be acquired by playing the game so players are never locked behind pay walls. We'll let the game speak for itself, so watch and enjoy our preview video up top. It begins with a 2 minute discussion of the game and then jumps into three different missions that highlight different maps styles, different mission and enemy types, and even three different Warframes in action playing cooperatively. For a legitimate look at how gorgeous Warframe truly is however, we recommend you watch the video in 7


In an interview belonging to the Noclip documentary series by Daniel O'Dwyer, Digital Extremes Studio Manager Sheldon Carter detailed an unexpected result that occurred when the developer introduced a small microtransaction for Kubrows, an in-game virtual pet. The studio had implemented what Carter defines as a "slot machine lever" that allowed gamers - for the price of about $0.67 - to randomize the fur pattern and fur color of their pet Kubrow. While it was only a cosmetic feature, the idea of putting something so random behind a paygate drew the ire of many of the game's fans. Still, Digital Extremes went forward with the idea - until one fan spent well over $100 on it almost immediat


Last year, Warframe came to the Nintendo Switch in a move that was so technically amazing that we’re still not quite sure how it was done. Warframe is not a light game by any means--some of the latest open-world updates can tax a mid-range PC--but it runs so smoothly on the portable system that it boggles the m


We had a lever, basically, for all intents and purposes, and we saw, you know, a guy pull the lever like 200 times. And it’s just like, ‘oh my dear god, what have we done? We’ve created a slot machine.’ And so you know, it was a couple days I think it took us to take it out - a day, day and a half. That one is a big reg

Most free-to-play online games are social apps (i.e. Facebook), MMOs (i.e. Neverwinter, Star Trek Online ) or competitive multiplayer titles ( MechWarrior Online, Tribes: Ascend ), but not many take the form of a full-on co-op game. That's just one of the many things that makes Warframe spec


While Warframe still has microtransactions, the game has been widely praised for keeping things in balance: the online environment certainly isn't 'pay to win', and purchases within the game don't come remotely as close to gambling as the infamous slot machine lever incident mentioned above. Now some 5 years after its initial release, Warframe is still getting updates from the developers as the community continues to dedicate plenty of hours into the space-based shoo


When Carter and the rest of the development staff looked at the ~$137 purchase history of a man who really, really wanted to find the perfect fur pattern for his in-game pet, they realized they had essentially created a slot machine that impulsive players would gamble away significant amounts of money on. While many studios would consider this a big win, Digital Extremes made the decision that this kind of activity wasn't healthy for the playerbase in the long run. As Carter explained, it wasn't long before the 'gambling fur randomizer' was removed from the game entir


There are three enemy factions players encounter, and they scale up, add new units (including bosses) as players progress. The game features over a dozen unique Warframe suits, each coming with different attributes, and most importantly, with entirely different sets of powers. Players equip their Warframe with a melee weapon, a primary gun and a sidearm, much a wide array of different types. Weapons can be unlocked with experience, in-game credits, real-money transactions (Platinum) or built with blueprints and acquired materi


It shows a human girl running from the villainous Grineer army. She reaches a temple, and plants flowers inside for the Tenno, who were beings that were so cool that they just decided to stop existing after they kicked everyone's ass. We then get examples of that as each of the starting frames, the sword wielding Excalibur, the electricity flinging Volt, and the magnetic and shiny helmeted Mag all wreak havoc, wiping out hundreds, perhaps thousands of soldiers. At the end of the trailer, they are seemingly woken up by lightning and injustice, and are ready to wreck another entire army, thus starting the g


The trailer was revealed at this year's Tennocon, which is essentially E3 if it was only about Warframe . The trailer is sort of a prologue to the game itself, and it helps new players get better acquainted with the world they're about to drop i


Microtransactions have been an increasingly touchy subject for gamers in the last few years, especially since Star Wars Battlefront 2 found itself in the spotlight after DICE pushed consumers too far. Game developers have been hard-pressed to find innovative ways to increase revenue earned from titles, but today's story is something else entirely: the developer of Warframe removed a microtransaction because it proved too successful. While some studios purposefully target high-spending gamers (who hold the industry nickname of "whales"), one man's click-happy purchase binge changed the philosophy of the Warframe online guide|https://warframebase.com/ crew fore
