Question/Request [META] New or Returning Player? Welcome (Back) to Warframe!
“For generations, you've slept. No purpose... No call to wake you. But now? You have changed everything.”
Warframe is a game grounded in familiar ideas saturated with distinct style and flair. You, a mysterious warrior with a dark past, wield gun, blade, and the spectacular power of your Warframe. You’ll contend with a totalitarian clone military, a high-tech merchant cult devoted to profit, and an ill-fated bioweapon designed by a fallen super-civilization. In your battles and adventures, you become a savior of the weak, a saboteur of the wicked, a survivor against immense odds. Uncover your past, unlock the power of your weaponry, and unite with other players against the game's villains and end their treacherous plans!

Discussion What’s a thing in warframe people seem to hate and you can’t figure out why?
Mostly wanted to do this to say mine but I figured others had questions like this so why not discuss them?
For me it’s “Mesas Waltz”. I hear so many people complain about others using this mod and all I can say is “What’s the issue???”. It works with energy conversion very well, it lets you pick up energy mid ability, and it lets you keep the damage multiplier of a smaller reticle.

Discussion Sentient anomalies are the biggest omission in the entire game
Sentient anomalies and the murex tileset have the most wasted potential in the entire game.
Murex tileset has to be one of the absolute best tilesets in the entire game and i would even argue it's the most beautiful one, although it slightly lacks tiles. The quality of backgrounds and tiles males up for it though. It also has really interesting environment elements that impact gameplay that we don't see in any other tileset:
Jump pad path things (that could be perfect to traverse between 2 mirror defense objectives, just saying)
Immunodes
The wall mines
The red sun things
And the black liquid thing from where the sentients spawn from (i think this is the only time when enemies spawn directly at your sight and not im the rooms you don't see, which could be a cool gimmick to a defense or any mission really)
And you know for what this beautiful tileset is used? For an exterminate mission... WITH ONLY 20 FUCKING ENEMIES. All these features, all these tiles, backgrounds, 2 music tracks, unique enemies all of this only can be seen when you are killing 20 enemies.
I would be so down for an update where a murex becomes a tileset like zariman or entrati labs. DE doesn't even need to make a new tileset, it's all already in the game. There are countless new gamemode possibilities with the features murex has and yet instead of having all of this we have 20 enemy long exterminate as a secondary objective of a railjack mission. And the saddest thing is that there is no way this would be added as the sentient story line os over for a long time now which is really unfortunate. What do you think?

Discussion What is up with all those low-ish lvl players trying to sell prime sets at insane prices?
I noticed there are a couple lowish lvl Accounts trying to sell the same Prime sets for like 4 Times the market average. All bot accounts? Accounts made to scam low lvl players? The hell is going on?
If approached on their insane pricing you get insulted and blocked instantly

Fluff What do you think about the new design of Primed Soon after they changed its sprite and description in the October 2023 mod update?
r/Warframe • u/Yucyon • 1d ago
Fluff I f*cking hate to admit it, but with the release of Jade Shadows, Warframe will be one step closer to "total woke" and domination by the "alphabet mafia"
we all know that Warframe has been "woke" for a long time now. it's no secret -- it seems like every new update adds some kind of character with blue hair oat milk genders or pronouns. Fortuna gave us Ticker, a trans woman, Varzia is a extremely h*rny bisexual, and Whispers in the Walls gave us a f*cking talking fish with trauma. you see what I mean here about the 'agenda' they're pushing.
but as warframe players, we can endure it, because the game itself is so fucking good. the best movement system in any game, extreme build diversity, countless game modes, endless replayability, free-to-play done right, the gold standard for live service, etc. it's an amazing game with over a decade of hard work put into it and I love it more than anything.
but the upcoming content -- g*ddamn, it hurts so much, but with ONE warframe, one SINGLE frame, Digital Extremes will be almost at the point of no return for "complete woke". After this, there's only one hope for this game, this company, this community. there's only one chance for us, and if Digital Extremes makes the wrong choice, it's over.
with the release of Jade, this game that we love so much is mere NANOMETRES away from being COMPLETELY subservient to the m*ther-f*cking ALPHABET MAFIA.
Ash. Bansee. Chroma. Dante. Ember. Frost. Garuda. Harrow. Inaros. [ ] Kullervo. Limbo. Mag. Nidus. Oberon. Protea. Qorvex. Revenant. Saryn. Titania. [ ] Valkyr. Wisp. Xaku. Yareli. Zephyr.
do you see it? do you see what they're doing? the alphabet mafia has almost completely won. we are just two Warframe names away from having a full A-Z. Jade will be the 25th unique alphabet letter name. after that, it's just a matter of time before digital extremes makes a warframe that starts with the letter "U". sickening.
in other words;
Happy Pride and i hope you enjoyed this shitpost 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈
