Oh ok

[prime lantern]

Well

I stand with bau

[tight pagoda]

I don't need her to step I need that robot arm to crush my windpipe

[prime lantern]

Of the games I play she's probably like 5th hottest women

[tight pagoda]

Here's hoping she gets a lot of screentime

[covert tree]

Wish she was an option

[prime lantern]

However it will dramatically drop once bleach rebirth of souls drops

Because my god does Kubo know how to make hot people

[prime lantern]

Shell probably be the primary antagonist

[tight pagoda]

Right now we've got

• SCALDRA
• Technocyte (less so on them because the OnLyne stuff got delayed, but undoubtedly still a big part of the update)
• The Man in the Wall / Albrecht Entrati stuff

[river burrow]

what up

[woeful patio]

This is... Rlly rlly fricking interesting. I gonna farm it .

[covert tree]

We probably will have techrot enemies scattered about like wild life

[covert tree]

Street rats

[tight pagoda]

I got Eternal Eradicate on it but honestly that's a must-have for most amps

[woeful patio]

I cant ...she is enemie... But.

[prime lantern]

Eternal Eradicate magus cloud has been my go to combo

That with a 547 makes void cascade a breeze

[woeful patio]

Eternal eradicate is one of the things i cant find anywhere

[tight pagoda]

I really ought to try an amp that doesn't have Raplak (1xx) one of these days

[tight pagoda]

Cavalero's store

[woeful patio]

Idk what else i should try to get it

[prime lantern]

Try and 547

[woeful patio]

Cavalero... Has it?...

https://tenor.com/view/mood-rage-screaming-internally-mood-scream-rage-gif-21120287

[tight pagoda]

Yep, I think all his arcanes are 10k standing each though

[prime lantern]

Should be like

Maybe 60p for an r5

[woeful patio]

Its like whem i was first trying to find the cetus wisps

[tight pagoda]

I see people buying them for like 15

[woeful patio]

And i was traveling every single inch of cetus

Then i realised they spawn near of lakes.

[tight pagoda]

Someone's selling a rank 5 for 30p

[woeful patio]

Gosh its cheap

[balmy storm]

Yeah lol

[woeful patio]

Ok 1.4.7 is now tagged on my list but . For eidolons.

I rlly like the 1.7.7

Is worthy right?.

[tight pagoda]

Yeah x4x is better for general use against a large group of enemies

[woeful patio]

If not. Im exterminating eidolons for the next weeks.

[tight pagoda]

177 is good against eidolons because of the single-target damage

[woeful patio]

Single?

I think my amp is built different... Or i messed up

[tight pagoda]

I can't remember what x7x is

But 1xx is the go-to for single target damage

and xx7 is for the crit damage

[woeful patio]

Its like... A wave

1 shoots a wave that some times deals slash???

Idk.

[tight pagoda]

I'm pretty sure 1 shoots a laser

I think this is the list people use

[woeful patio]

. . .

[tight pagoda]

So 1 (Raplak) 4 (Phahd) and 7 (Certus) are what I use

[thick jolt]

Yeah 1 is semi auto laser

[woeful patio]

OMG i messed up.

[thick jolt]

Wave might be 2

Iirc 2 is like arca plasmor

[woeful patio]

I got the 2 instead of 1

https://tenor.com/view/cry-guy-listening-to-music-crying-music-music-sad-gif-1436056687197982910

[tight pagoda]

I used to use the 111 combo. x1x (Pencha) was pretty sick, like a shotgun

[woeful patio]

I think theres not a good use for the 2

Since... I never saw a built with this thing.

[covert tree]

Are the blue ones fourtuna

[tight pagoda]

Yep

[zenith jacinth]

Your brain cells are struggling

[woeful patio]

Kinda

[prime lantern]

The final x should always be 7 it is objectively the best in slot

[covert tree]

Son of a I need to grind more

[tight pagoda]

Toroids are super annoying to get if you don't have a designated farm team imo

Sometimes it's faster to get Lazulites from Exploiter

[covert tree]

Yeah I need to start locking in on warframe I'm gonna do everything b4 sp

[tight pagoda]

That's what I use for standing, the rest I use for crafting

[woeful patio]

We need to go on fortuna???

[zenith jacinth]

What is that word

[covert tree]

Gun

[zenith jacinth]

Ever talked to little duck?

[covert tree]

Pistol

[woeful patio]

I did

[tight pagoda]

Yeah Little Duck in Fortuna sells the blue parts

[woeful patio]

The farm on this stuff is just

[tight pagoda]

You have to approach her as Operator/Drifter

[woeful patio]

Pain..

[tight pagoda]

Can't spell Warframe without War Farm

and be dyslexic

[woeful patio]

Why you need to remember me of this pain.

[zenith jacinth]

By the nine. I will never take anyone who calls a gun blicky seriously. It sounds like the name of some cartoon character

[woeful patio]

Did you forget we have a gun called plinx?

In theory a revolver..

[zenith jacinth]

And it's as pathetic as it sounds

[covert tree]

Idc

I forgot it's actual name and wanted to use a stupid name

[woeful patio]

It is... Good.

It is mid but not so trash

[zenith jacinth]

Have we used the same plinx? It barely manages to kill mid- to end of base star chart grineer

[obtuse gyro]

Plinx or tenet plinx?

[zenith jacinth]

Plinx

[gilded cedar]

Has DE said something about the new mods coming in 1999?

[tight pagoda]

They mentioned some arcanes, I think they have some invisibility buff?

Or maybe it was something to do with Nyx's abilties?

[gilded cedar]

I saw we'll get 15 mods so I'm kinda curious if it'll be like WITW mods

[tight pagoda]

Wonder if the Tommies can be modded

Maybe they'll even use K-Drive mods

[gilded cedar]

It seems closer to Kaithe than K-Drive, as it has abilities

[woeful patio]

Plinx tenet

[zenith jacinth]

See, you have the other version

[woeful patio]

Also plinx is good

[zenith jacinth]

Tenet isn't a fair comparison, all tenet weapons are good

[woeful patio]

All you need to do is know what you are building

[zenith jacinth]

A pea shooter

[gilded cedar]

N u t s

[woeful patio]

Even a pea shooter can kill a zombie

[zenith jacinth]

There are no zombies in warframe

[woeful patio]

Yea you dont get it...

[zenith jacinth]

I do, I indirectly said that there's nothing for the pea shooter to kill

[balmy storm]

Closest we have is actually the infestation

Though obviously very very different from the typical zombie formula

Could make a case for ghouls too actually

[zenith jacinth]

Ghouls aren't actually undead

[balmy storm]

They do be kinda ghoulish tho

[zenith jacinth]

Yeah but they're just sleeping in the cold below in their incubation sacs

[balmy storm]

Oh okay then

[spice wyvern]

anyone else see this face in the window? just found it in a netracell.

[nova harness]

Wait till you go outside in sanctum and look up

[spice wyvern]

oh i already know

[cinder steppe]

I'm watching Arcane. And the 6th and 7th episodes HEAVILY reminds me of the Void in Warframe. Anyone has else? Especially that "bad timeline" really reminded of the Zariman

[worn vigil]

What's the best school for the operator?

For the Zariman

[flat magnet]

New players id recommend Zenurik because energy regen is harder to come by but for vets its 100% Madurai

[worn vigil]

I have the entire storyline done

I'm mainly struggling on dealing damage

[flat magnet]

Then go for Madurai

[worn vigil]

Ok... just gotta find a lens for it then

Which I have no idea where to find one...

[worn vigil]

Where can I find a madurai lens

[flat magnet]

Bounties? Idk I haven’t really looked for them in a while

[nova harness]

Yeah all are in bounties on rotation

[worn vigil]

Time for plains of eidolon because ain't no way in HELL I'm going to deimos or Fortuna

[nova harness]

What’s wrong with Deimos and Fortuna?

[worn vigil]

Necramech and the wanted level

Also none of the bounties currently have the madurai lens

[nova harness]

All 3 have what you call a wanted level lol

[worn vigil]

It's just the 2 I have or Vazarin

[worn vigil]

How does earth have one?

[nova harness]

Grineer

[worn vigil]

That's just the enemy type, I'm talking GTA type wanted level with the corpus

[nova harness]

You can actually remove that instantly by destroying the things they place

[worn vigil]

It's where's Waldo 2.0

I got Unairu lens

[dry ruin]

LOL forgot I had changed the equipment for the warframe quest then this pop up

[worn vigil]

What quest is that?

[nova harness]

Jade Shadows

[thick jolt]

The mask is for revenant's quest

[formal grove]

considering that they changed DJ Rom's colors a bit and what Packet's eye looks like I'm wondering if On-Lyne's lich forms will be getting any other changes

[native snow]

they changed DJ-RoM?

[formal grove]

yeah, the colors are a bit different between the Tennocon reveal and the in-game model preview they gave in a stream last month

[native snow]

isnt that just the lighting or am i crazy

[covert tree]

What are the lore implications of [redacted]!?

[solemn cloud]

Oh, that's a great question! The implications are quite staggering because [redacted].

[covert tree]

Fr

[soft pumice]

What if stalker ends up in 1999 and we can romance proto stalker XD

[shell snow]

I mean we’re already doing a bit of homewrecking with Aoi and Arthur, so what’s another couple?

[simple python]

Oh yeah. Not stalker but ACOLYTES. The minibosses of sp

How are we gonna explain the acolytes in Hollvania SP?

[shell snow]

“Hey so hex, you guys know how you have more than enough problems to deal with as is? Yeah I’ve got like seven different assassins after me. They shouldn’t be your problem, but if they are then good luck.”

[zenith jacinth]

The only thing that makes stalker unique is his helmet, how could a proto stalker stand out

[solemn cloud]

Arthur's evil twin brother.

[prime raptor]

You can then romance proto Stalker and proto Jade at the same time to be in a romance triangle

[solemn cloud]

He'll have a goatee and arched eyebrows, and wear slightly more eyeliner than his twin brother, Arthur.

[balmy storm]

Stalker doesn’t need to go to 1999 for a proto stalker to exist

[balmy storm]

Only those two, though from the Line animated video it’s clear Aoi and Arthur are having issues and if I had to guess have broken up by the time of the quest.

[covert tree]

Different gear on his body and a memorable face

[soft pumice]

Who would date stalker if they could

[untold mango]

Whaaaaat? Wasnt he like, married?

[rain otter]

do you think people who's spouses died can't date again? or even do you think people that where married and now aren't can't be datable?

[tight pagoda]

Stalker dating profile would be funny

Sorren (1247)
Occupation: Bounty Hunter
Single Father looking for Vengeance a good time
Enjoys archery, hunting, scouring the universe to take revenge on a bunch of orphans killing my bosses, and long walks on the beach.

[solemn cloud]

But it wouldn't be Sorren. It would be some rando given a strain based on Stalker - assuming Albrecht could even get a sample.

[balmy storm]

Why wouldn’t he be able?
He did everything during the old war when Stalker was still in service

[still moat]

i know what i wanna see in 1999

specters of the upcoming faction members, acting as their warframe equivilants

toss out an amir specter and listen to him chattering out like an on call crew as he throws out Speeds and shocks

specters tend to be a bit too expensive to field every mission but they can be quite useful in certain situations

[solemn cloud]

Haha yeah - let us have Gemini Spectres.

Once you buy the skin, if you make a spectre with it equipped - it is applied to the spectre.

[tight pagoda]

Stalker probably ain’t that to recreate. A bit of Excalibur for the form, a bit of Nyx and Ash and the Helminth abilities for the powers

[solemn cloud]

I mean that's effectively true for any frame. I wasn't denying the ability to make it - that was literally not the point of my comment.

[tight pagoda]

I was just making a joke I apologize

[solemn cloud]

All good.

[balmy storm]

I see no issue in Albrecht getting a stalker sample just because of when he would have been able to get one, which is during the old war when stalker was still in full service to the Orokin
Sure he wasn’t mass produced but it’s not like Stalker was running around being the mysterious weirdo he is now

[solemn cloud]

But my point was that a protoframe is not the exact Warframe's human component - it's just the ingredient applied to a new recipe, in a new pot. You don't get human Sorren, you get a new frame with Stalker sauce.

[solemn cloud]

Arguing with no one. I merely went with a comment that's not said as a Fact, because it's never been factually stated that he had the sample.

No reason to be hung up on the least important part about my original comment.

[tight pagoda]

It seems like a lot of the transformation is what the Orokin cultivate and impose onto the person rather than the source body having a unique evolution. There’s 3 (now 4 with Arthur) excaliburs with nearly identical designs and abilities, I doubt that it was random chance that they all ended up being so similar

[balmy storm]

Oh yeah I doubt he has a sample, my whole point is it wouldn’t have been difficult

[desert hedge]

yeah the hex are referred to as having specific batches of (i assume) the technocyte which refers to their frame (excal, trin, etc)

[solemn cloud]

All of this was a response to someone saying effectively that a protoframe of Stalker would be Sorren (by way of a joke about home wrecking), when that's not how it works. A protoframe is not the human part of the original Warframe- it's just some rando given a cultivated strain based on a particular Warframe, like Excalibur, Mag, etc.

[tight pagoda]

Goddammit I can’t even escape him while watching Hit-Monkey

[still moat]

im given to wonder what the story missions for 1999 will be like

i imagine that the hex would not be best pleased to see warframes showing up because they'd put together pretty quick that the transformation overtaking them is definitely stemming from your future and probably cast some blame your way for it

on the other hand, the lotus eaters makes it clear that they can't send the operator, not with the signal going- which is why it's up to Drifter

will drifter even have warframes, or will it be duviri style combat until the signal's cut?

[fading current]

Loid made it pretty clear after lotus eaters ended that he’d send us back well prepared and armed

[fading current]

Inbox message:
The Visitor

Tenno,

None of us could hear the Device that was calling from the abyss of history. The Daughter of Hunhow heard it, and almost succumbed to its call. She raised her voice in song to drown it out, and that we did hear.

I should have known she was waiting for you.

You answered a call and in a way, found an answer. For me. The time is almost right to finish the Kalymos Sequence.

I will soon be able to send you to the city-state of Höllvania, in the plague year of 1999 – a most perilous time. Without your equipment, you would surely perish.

Luckily, the Vessels have a connection to Albrecht's "volunteers" that I believe I can exploit. You will not arrive unarmed, nor unarmoured.

We won't be late!

—Loid

[still moat]

hmm, okay

but yeah, showing up with warframe versions of the hex would certainly draw their attention

[zenith jacinth]

They said that the arthur excal sword clash would be where we switch to our frame

[still moat]

neat! And appropriately dramatic. I approve.

so, the romance system is between the drifter and the hex, then?

it shows arthur using the chat system in the demo but i imagine thats just introducing it

[zenith jacinth]

Yes

[still moat]

also, going over the 22 minute gameplay demo they showedm onths back

the fact we get more voice lines of cy snarking is also a bonus

[obtuse gyro]

Wont be till 2025 tho, that part of 1999 is DElayed

[still moat]

True. But the real prize of 1999 is on time:

Getting the somacord songs for the music!

[balmy storm]

we need the ability to make somachord playlists so we can loop our favorites

[zenith jacinth]

Well, you can make it not play specific songs

[balmy storm]

wait really??
how?

[zenith jacinth]

It shpuld tell you at the bottom right button prompt list

Or controller it's R2

[balmy storm]

I have been playing this game for over 5 years...

I never looked at the tips tab for somachords

lmao

[zenith jacinth]

It's very convwnient

[obtuse gyro]

Right click

[balmy storm]

yeah I finally looked at the tips lmao

[balmy storm]

I BET 😭

ty scrap and ty bau

[obtuse gyro]

Tis how I get No Gods Above Knowledge on loop all day everyday

[balmy storm]

You can have it loop specific tracks

That is one of the best songs btw

[simple python]

really? How

Right click??????

Hmn... I'll try organizing my playlist tonight. I really love the choir music they put in the game. Makes it all real ethereal.

[gusty jungle]

When come 1999??

[zenith jacinth]

Soon

[strange sentinel]

You missed it lol

Came out years ago. Almost 25

[balmy storm]

1999 was 25 years ago 😔

Remember when the chair did that thing?

And when Arthur had his sword

[zenith jacinth]

I took it

[balmy storm]

Albrecht said something something void something something indifference

the good old days

[thick jolt]

I remember

[balmy storm]

The lore has gotten so weird since then

[strange sentinel]

And then Hayden Tenno kills Albrecht and Dark Sector is canonized and solidified in Warframe's past

[balmy storm]

We still haven’t gone to tau

[balmy storm]

I loved it when they revealed hayden tenno wrote the novels and made the movie in 1999 so his timeline wouldn’t be forgotten, moving stuff

[thick jolt]

Woah woah there that's fanfiction

[balmy storm]

[zenith jacinth]

You haven't

[balmy storm]

😢

[thick jolt]

Everyone knows that hayden tenno was cloned to make an army of trauma children

[strange sentinel]

The secret Zariman lore...

[balmy storm]

I thought his DNA was used to make John Warframe??? The most powerful character in all of fiction!

[nova harness]

Nah John Prodman is stronger

[balmy storm]

Brb turning John Prodman into a protoframe so he can become John Warframe

[nova harness]

John Warframe Proto Prime

[balmy storm]

Dex Vandal Tenet Kuva Prisma Proto Umbra Prime

[undone lodge]

John would be the pioneer of a new generation, stronger thsn the previous Protoframes

The Prodframes

[fiery surge]

John Prodman

a rumored man with a prova

[dusky rover]

|| BALLAS IS INNOCENT ||

[rain otter]

You should be ashamed 😂

[dusky rover]

Nah I'm not

It’s okay to be wrong sometimes

[fringe spear]

i never helped clem

[soft pumice]

I wonder we will get an entiti outfit for your drifter at some point

[rain otter]

what do you mean?

cuz xaku's prime accessroies is that.

[night grail]

Typo of entrati probably

[rain otter]

but do you mean like Entratis like 1999 outfit?

[soft pumice]

That's a Skelton suit

[night grail]

But like I assumed like the fit of Albrecht himself

[soft pumice]

I want that hat and jacket

[night grail]

Which would go kinda crazy

[balmy storm]

No, it’s literally an entrati suit lol

[rain otter]

yeah that's the entrati like vibe and fit. if you mean albretchs 1999 outfit idk.

[fringe spear]

i just need a tagfer companion

[balmy storm]

It’s literally a tribute to the entrati family

[rain otter]

I want like Calveros outfit if we are getting NPC outifts

tbh.

[balmy storm]

I want Yonta’s

[rain otter]

also even on Albretchs outfit he does have the like Entrait like

Coin things

[nova harness]

Obols

[soft pumice]

Cereal 🥣

[balmy storm]

Interestingly I’ve seen the case that Albrecht also has his own obol design as we see a different one on the grimoire
That same design is also on Xaku Prime

I think it’s indicative of his void research tbh

[fringe spear]

sp xeku is albert Einstein

albretch

[rain otter]

SP?

[balmy storm]

What

[rain otter]

what

[nova harness]

Entrati family so rich they stuck money on doors in walls

[balmy storm]

Yeah

Average Orokin moment

[fringe spear]

so xaku is albert entrati

[balmy storm]

…
No.

That’s not what I said at all.

[rain otter]

i mean Grandama has enough money currently to buy out nef so yes.

[rain otter]

yeah nope.

[woeful patio]

does someone have pics of the new accessories for 1999?

i need to redeem about something

i know we will finally have a new glasses

i just cant find it

[simple python]

They showed it on devstream right? I think November or October

It's all tennogen. There's some butterfly glasses that look cute.

[woeful patio]

i just want to make my goth operator looks like bayonetta whem she had short hair!

Apparently yes, you get Overwatch 1 Tracer lmao.

[simple python]

Tbh I think the Glasses make the vibe. Those small, rectangular frames? Totally suit her.

But the tennogen glasses they showed were like Beat from JSR.

[balmy storm]

All of the new drifter customizations will be available for Operator as well

There’s some tennogen customizations
And some non tennogen customizations (the outfits AND some glasses)

[simple python]

TRUE. As they are trying to do. But like... all accessorization options were like that anyway.

[woeful patio]

The butterfly glasses are making my inner toughs to make elton john drifter.

[balmy storm]

we’re getting I think 5 new eyewear this update

[woeful patio]

You have pics?

[simple python]

You found the pic of it?

I thought it was only six pieces? They didn't show some of them?

[woeful patio]

No, just based on this

No, when i said butterfly glasses think...

Hmmnnnnn bug chic... who got bug chic...

Uh maybe

[still moat]

yeah, that

[simple python]

These ones. I thought they looked different. But this is tennogen made for 1999.

It is Bayonetta chic... but you'd have to make sure that it looks like bayonetta.

Or... maybe it's a Jeanne look? She's always been a bit more high fashion. It is pink too.

[woeful patio]

This is 100% elton john stuff.

[simple python]

Lmao

Anyway if you swap for a more Jeanne-esque look... you can get away with a lot more for her. Pixie cut or no...

[woeful patio]

Kinda

[simple python]

Looking at it now... I might not get it. I wanted bug eye glasses.

[woeful patio]

I give up whem i felt"yeah... That dont look like bayonetta..." Them keep the gothness

I need a better glasses

[simple python]

You need the glasses

[woeful patio]

I need the glasses.

[simple python]

You can't settle for anything other than that cute pair of full rectangular glasses. Or her 3's glasses tbh. Hopefully tennogen gets around to releasing more contemporary stuff with 1999's release.

But yeah. Those glasses are a jeanne serve.

[fading current]

I like the first and second pair here haha. More “sporty” but they’re cool.

That third pair look a little too bulky on the arms... we'll see it in-game I guess?

"HE GOT SOME FAKE JAYS!"

It's better because it's a space rig

[woeful patio]

Ooh

Nice ones.

Orokin gold plated?

[vale sorrel]

To be fair, those are unfinished in that image, they might refine them before 1999 launches

[woeful patio]

I hope we have some office glasses

[balmy storm]

We also don’t know how they’re gonna look in-game, those are just low res renders

[balmy storm]

C is the closest tbh

[sour adder]

I like

[brave echo]

I think I already shared this theory before in the decoding signal chat but I just want to reiterate it incase Im right, also 1999 predictions/possible spoiler depending: ||I think Kalymos is in someone or form sentient and more intelligent then we realize. Most sane theory is Albrecht threw old Kalymos into the void to bring them back from the dead and ended up turning them hyper intelligent (not sure if capable of speech) like what happened with the Cavia. Most insane theory is that somehow Entrati is IN the body of Kalymos hiding or trying to lay low somehow.|| Personally I'm leaning towards the former now, but wanted to get both out there

[plush swan]

Dang, I must has spawned, like, a dozen Heat Sisters and they still haven't generated with Ephemera

At this rate I'm going to get all my Tenet weapons to 60% without getting that Ephemera

[night grail]

#decoding-signal-1999-arg truly was the party of our lifetimes

[fading current]

It was such a fun channel

[west berry]

you guys think the hex are gonna start shaking in their boots when we show up with steel path builds and incarnon weapons

[solemn cloud]

Loid (and/or I think the Cavia?) insist that Albrecht felt Kalymos was too special to risk sending them into the void.

But that doesn't necessarily mean it never happened.

[brave echo]

Maybe but, but on that same token Albrecht might of already done it before to a different Kavat and maybe he was desperate enough for whatever reason

[balmy storm]

Al just liked his cat

He just thought his cat was smart

He’s just a cat dad

[brave echo]

But he IS also Orokin so I wouldn't put it past him to reenact Pet Sematary with void shenanigans, but just a theory

[balmy storm]

It def sounded like he did not void his cat though

[brave echo]

Only time and the 1999 update will tell for sure

[balmy storm]

If Kalymos starts talking then we know what’s up
Until then, she’s just a good cat

[brave echo]

TBF not all voided animals are bad. Like Bird for example

[balmy storm]

Interesting tidbit that’s somewhat but not entirely related
It seems the 1999 quest will be called “The Hex” which means it will likely focus around them and us beginning our hunt for Albrecht
We’ll be in 1999 for longer than we may have thought

[brave echo]

I like the theory that Bird 3 is just the same Bird who's been resurrected multiple times now and doesn't remember

[balmy storm]

None of them are bad

[balmy storm]

He isn’t.

Bird 1 and 2 are definitely dead

[brave echo]

But I like the theory :p

[brave echo]

At least until New Years

[balmy storm]

I do think we’ll be groundhog daying the entirety of 1999 judging by the seasons being a cycle

It’s gonna take a while to find Albrecht ig

And do whatever else we have to do

Probably help accomplish whatever it is Albrecht’s doing in 1999

Why make an elite group of Warframe soldiers?
My immediate thought is to destabilize the empire before it can occur to entirely prevent Albrecht from ever entering the void and creating/discovering Wally

[simple python]

Sir lay off the koolaid kuva.

We are NOT going to find Albrecht in that quest I can swear to you that.

[nova harness]

You can like the theory all you like it still has nothing to prove it

[simple python]

Idk if our goal is to kill or save Entrati but like... We're going to fight Walbrecht at least??? Maybe maybe not.

At least it seems our main enemy right now is still Walbrecht.

[balmy storm]

Judging by the fact the infinite capture mission is likely the kalymos one, yeahh

[balmy storm]

It’s just to find him at the moment

[brave echo]

There's something else I been thinking about two. Not really sure what to make of it but it stems from a handful of events

end of TNW, Lotus (seemingly) closes the void gate as Wally is trying to come through but acts like she didn't see (or sense) him (probably a lie)
Story wise has been more and more distant towards us since NW
End of WITW we see Wally picking apart a Lotus flower while monologuing about our now broken deal
Like I said not sure what to fully make of it but it all seems least symbolically connected somehow

[simple python]

Plus... it kinda seems like it'll be a Sanctum sitch again or Zariman Sitch again where the quest handholds us through the modes which... granted, we need to know.

[nova harness]

It’s Quincy that wants him dead Arthur admits he needs to stay alive

[balmy storm]

The deal wasn’t broken, we just haven’t paid up yet

[simple python]

But I don't think we'll see anything... happen monumentally. Then again it could be a long quest like Whispers again, and unlike Zariman.

[balmy storm]

It’s 2.5 hours long iirc

[brave echo]

Hmmmmm, not sure about that. I remember him pretty explicitly talking about "a deal that was shook" or something to that effect. We denied him the grimoire page and now he is angy

[simple python]

Oh so... New War long

[balmy storm]

Most dialogue in a quest and update I think??

[balmy storm]

No, like half that

[nova harness]

New War was 3-5 hours

[simple python]

I cleaned house on Whispers for like... 30-15 minutes.

[balmy storm]

Yes, shook
As in a shaking of hands.

[simple python]

Oh yeah New War was like a day thing.

[balmy storm]

We made a deal and have yet to pay up, he mentioned adding the page to the deal but that’s it

Yes he isn’t happy with us but he hasn’t been happy with us
We have owed him and still do, that hasn’t changed.

[brave echo]

I don't think that's what was being implied :v I think was talking about a deal that was made, but then broken or reneged on by us via previously mentioned choices

[simple python]

Lawyer up Walbrecht, The Page wasn't in the original terms.

Lmao. Anyway. See you all tomorrow or something.

[brave echo]

Wally really didn't make the fully terms and conditions of the contract clear enough TBF

So that's legitimate grounds for nullifying the agreement on our end

[balmy storm]

I strongly disagree, shook can mean many things but we literally shook his hang

This also isn’t a legal contract lol

[nova harness]

We shook his hang

[balmy storm]

We still owe him, that hasn’t changed

[nova harness]

I don’t remember any hanging

[thick jolt]

Duviri launch long maybe

[brave echo]

Yeah I'm not arguing THAT. I'm saying we pissed him off by denying him a favor, thus the "deal" is at least compromised now

[simple python]

Oh right. The Spiral. Hmn

To be honest the Spiral was like... very repetitive.

Didn't hate it, just... by Lodun's quest, I was bored.

[balmy storm]

I disagree just because we have yet to pay up, I def got the feeling he meant adding the page as a joke anyway
He knew we wouldn’t do it

[nova harness]

Him saying consider it part of our deal could’ve meant me helping you is part of the deal not the other way around

[brave echo]

I think us finding him that grimoire page WAS our opportunity to pay up

[simple python]

Oh yeah, completely.

[balmy storm]

No, it was additive
We have always owed him, we just don’t know what we have owed him
Best idea we have is our “light”

[brave echo]

So now the deal, if not being nullified is at least having its "TOS" altered, so to speak

Likely against our favor

[balmy storm]

Man in the Wall: "How about you give me the page instead, Kiddo? Consider it part of our deal."

It’s part of the deal

I don’t think the deal is invalid at all, maybe he’s a bit more mad but if he was to call the deal off we wouldn’t owe him

[brave echo]

"And yet from the deal, the wee child ran" finally found the end monoluge to re watch it and jog my memory. But I think its a pretty strong implication that we violated the terms of the agreement by explicitly defying the will or request of Wally in that situation

Its still technically ongoing, cause we still got void powers and stuff. However I wouldn't be surprised if Wally was scheming to "rewrite" the deal or "re negotiate" in some way

[nova harness]

He already has

Him adding the page to the deal literally rewrote it

[balmy storm]

I still think this doesn’t really change anything
We still owe him, that hasn’t changed

[serene valve]

When 1999 coming

[nova harness]

Probably the 12-13th

[brave echo]

Could be. Could also be something a lot more broad, IE "I give you void powers, you follow my demands as I request" like a master/servant type of dynamic just drawn out over millennia

[thick jolt]

We will know on the 12th

[balmy storm]

That was not the terms of the deal

[brave echo]

What do you think the term of the deal was?

[zenith jacinth]

It will be DElayed by a day every time someone asks

[thick jolt]

Make that 99 days

[serene valve]

Okie

[balmy storm]

We offered him our light, he accepted
He then offered a way out, we accepted.

[nova harness]

1999 days

[brave echo]

Now when you say "light" do you mean the literal hand lamp? or our metaphorical "light" ?

[balmy storm]

A simple exchange that we have yet to pay for.

[simple python]

Oro maybe

[thick jolt]

The O word!!

[balmy storm]

Our Tenno intended for it to he our literal hand lamp
He was talking about something else, if Oro proves to be real then that

[simple python]

The light of everyone's life, generally. A soul, etc. Idk why OURS but you know. It seems like that to me

[brave echo]

Our oro, mind, soul etc makes sense to me. Either to own in a literal sense OR even to just merely control us, use us as a means to spread his influence into our world

[simple python]

Both is good.

[thick jolt]

Until oro proves to be real i'll always remember albrecht scoffing at debates about oro

[balmy storm]

If I had to guess he wants it to have his own sense of self, to not need to be known to exist, to be a unique creature of his own that doesn’t have to pull from the concepts of others.

[balmy storm]

Tbh I think he was half right
It could be Kalymos had Oro
Though the Cavia seem to suggest otherwise as if Oro is real they certainly have it now

[brave echo]

Which is why I think us denying him the grimoire page is significant. Its effectively us (the servants) denying a request from Wally (our "master" if you will). Even if a violation of just a single term doesn't negate the whole contract, it is often times grounds for "fines" or "discipline" of some kind at least. Also I'm still wondering how exactly the Lotus will play into all of this

[balmy storm]

Which would mean Oro can be created which is big for Wally

[brave echo]

Also I think this is a good theory

[balmy storm]

I don’t think we’ve ever had a servant master relationship with him

[simple python]

It's only recently that he's been contacting us, since we put Rell to rest but invariably freed Walbrecht

[brave echo]

I do, even if we weren't always fully aware of it. Some like Rell were more actively trying to resist it but I think the majority of the Tenno (before the second dream) just went along their lives not even realizing the strings being pulled

[simple python]

They did not know. At all really

[balmy storm]

Yeah that was the whole point of Rell lol

[simple python]

Also it might just be us being pestered.

[balmy storm]

Wally def is seeming more and more like the trickster type

Anansi

[brave echo]

Only a couple. Rell, and the individual Tenno who made the actual handshake to begin with. Everyone else basically got pulled into the same deal without any real say. Or maybe you can some eternalism shenanigans

[simple python]

Yonta, someone very much separated from the whole Walbrecht deal, still did see "Wonda" in the reliquary drive chamber but it might just be that chamber only.maybe there's some weird funky stuff going in with that key.

[balmy storm]

Our Tenno didnt know either due to Margulis shutting all our memories of the incident out

[simple python]

I'm gonna make everyone a Wario counterpart lmao. Wotus.

Wait did someone photoshop that smiling meme onto Lotus

[balmy storm]

She was standing right next to his finger lol

[brave echo]

That seems more like a memory loss/amnesia thing that we've definitely overcome by now going by the events of TNW where we literally relive the events of the Zaramon

[simple python]

I know. Full aware of that. It might've just been the finger leeching off on her

[balmy storm]

Yeah, we know now
After we already knew about him thanks to Chains of Harrow

[brave echo]

And I don't think its a coincidence that Wally got more and more involved with us as more of our core memories came back

[balmy storm]

No Tenno but Rell knew about Wally

[balmy storm]

He also got more involved cause we took up Rell’s responsibility

[brave echo]

Well OUR Tenno (the "prime" Tenno lets say) would have before the second dream and then after Chains of Harrow. Even before at the end of War Within when Wally gives us a little reminder

[balmy storm]

Yes but we wouldn’t know it was Wally til chains, we wouldn’t even know our past with him until we relived it

My whole point is we were not aware, nobody truly was but Rell

[brave echo]

What do you think is going to happen to the Lotus?

[nova harness]

Witch time

[brave echo]

What does that mean?

[thick jolt]

Idle lines after lotus eaters when near the edge

[nova harness]

Natah/Lotus/Margulis: "I was the Daughter. I became the Mother. In time I shall be the Witch, blind once again, empty of all but wisdom."

[balmy storm]

she'll do what she's always done
guide us.

[nova harness]

You forget the years she didn’t?

[balmy storm]

her brother and ex(?) were gaslighting her

not her fault

[brave echo]

I was gonna say run away and go missing for a unspecified amount of time like a father going out for smokes and milk

[balmy storm]

like they dangled her mother's corpse in front of her lmao

[nova harness]

Her fault or not the fact remains she wasn’t guiding us

[brave echo]

Moms gonna leave us again isn't she

[nova harness]

Probably not

We already ended an arc where she left no point them doing that again

[amber terrace]

Is the ARG still doable?

[tight pagoda]

Nah the Hollvania relay’s gone and I think there was some crossover stuff there, particularly answering Arthur’s phone

[amber terrace]

Oof, I completed it(I’ve been caught up since File 05) and I was curious if it was still able to be ran through

[nova harness]

You need the mall to do the phone thing and there’s no mall to do the phone thing

[amber terrace]

Hmm… fair

I do remember seeing somewhen in #decoding-signal-1999-arg that the mall phone was put on the We End As We Began screen but I may be wrong

[supple dagger]

if you go to this website and scroll down to the bottom there will be a phone on the right of the box that says doktorentrati/com. that's how you can hang up the phone now

it'll also make the busy noise that phones make until you hang it up

[amber terrace]

Ooh 😲

Might run through it one last time before 1999

I already have the drippy glyph and the on-lyne poster(and subsequently the drippy emblem) but the ARG is just so interesting

Tbf, it is bias because the last ARG I payed attention to was the Fortuna ARG

[rain otter]

it wasn't years in game time.

[plush swan]

Hold "X" to revive:
https://www.warframe.com/media/comics/warframe1999?page=30

[nocturne kiln]

Wait, how did you get this emblem? I completed the arg and everything but I never got it

[amber terrace]

Drippy glyph from the mall, TH3GR8D3SP41R gives On-Lyne poster now, Drippy emblem when 1999 launches

[nocturne kiln]

AH

okay. you made me panic

I have the poster

[midnight rune]

Is there any documentation on the tanslation of the script used in 1999? I feel like tennotyper had a cheatsheet but for some reason when i click it it's just the modern orokin script. Does anyone happen to have that cheatsheet on hand? It'd be greatly appreciated!!

[nocturne kiln]

Yup. I was translating before school ramped up for finals

wrong one

[nocturne kiln]

Much better

Has both actually

[amber terrace]

My sincerest apologies, I don’t like making people panic

[midnight rune]

Thank you so much!! (Yeah i... just realized that the page im on has both. Somehow i overlooked the third column. XD)
I really appreciate the fact that there's a cool script in warframe. Multiple, actually. Super cool. I'm not super super deep into lore but I think implications that there are other languages in 1999, and it seems like the orokin empire wiped out a bunch of different cultures and languages... because colonialism™️
Thank you again!

[nocturne kiln]

I mean, there's in universe languages I dont have the script for that actually explains some minor things about your character. Like your player character knows old orokin Grineer but has dificulty with the more modern dialect (We understand some words as close to english as the player while we dont undertand others) while they dont know corpus at all

Then there's also the Ostron language

[midnight rune]

That's a really good point, yeah!
I was more talking about the spanish lettie speaks, but absolutely! There's definitely a bunch of different languages lore wise in modern origin system. I'm curious to see what kind of earth we'll get a glimpse into in 1999

[nocturne kiln]

Its not that the orokin erased thier cultures, its that they made each culture a different level on the class system

[nocturne kiln]

It will be a world not quite like our own

[midnight rune]

cool stuff though! Thanks again for the chart! :D

[nocturne kiln]

No problem. happy to help

I could also dm you the translations I have complete if you want a head start

[midnight rune]

Sure! Feel free :)

DE consistently uses it here

[supple dagger]

its tomorrow?

[zenith jacinth]

Depends on time zone. For me it's at 1:30am on friday

I hope I can catch it

[supple dagger]

No. I meant it's tomorrow?

Like I didn't realize it's there already

I'm not finna watch

I'm never a person to tune in to those things

First things first, treat myself to max out felarx by spending money to buy everything i need at max rank; priorities first

Then spend money on protoframe; Eleanor

[zenith jacinth]

Tone through text is difficult

[simple python]

Ah.... 7:30 pm. So that update might be Friday at least. I forgot when TGA is held.

[simple python]

Where's tori again? I just saw the tennogen splash art on the forum, figured it'd be super relevant for them.

[covert tree]

That male drifter looks homeless

[woeful patio]

I liked the glasses but this male drifter...

He looks like surviving the orokin bank fall

I kinda liked more the scaldra helmet

[simple python]

There is more scaldra items I think... these are just the items on the splash.

Coreia Ocoreia? Basically there's an entire Rusalka Tennogen Set coming too.

Not the outfit, just the head items. The Visor, Eyepatch, the Gas Mask and Cigarette Holder.

[covert tree]

I might get some of these I do need to make my drifter look nice

[tight pagoda]

These are just tennogen Accesories, there’s separate outfits

[simple python]

I did redo my drifter but... I'm gonna hold off for the update drop before I consider those glasses. It may accidentally clip on my drifter's hair.

[covert tree]

My drifter is corpus/solaris I plan on transing his gender pre 1999

[zenith jacinth]

My drifter just looks weird.
I vaguely tried to base him on myself so I guess I look weird

[nova harness]

Scrap really outing himself like that

[woeful patio]

Cigarret holder....

Yes it is a must.

Also i hope alot that the cigarrete only be exclusive to the drifter-

[tight pagoda]

Source?

[zenith jacinth]

Well it's not like anyone will ever see my drifter, I have the full reckoning accessory set equipped on him

[nova harness]

Now I wanna see this

[zenith jacinth]

Actually wait I got things mixed up, my operator was based on me when I started playing, my drifter is just the least tennobama I could make him look while still liking the face

[gilded cedar]

If Albrecht was American, would he call the Hex as The E-Team?

[nova harness]

No, and they wouldn’t be keeping that name if that’s what he called it

[gilded cedar]

You know it's a joke, right?

Just a layer issue

DO WE HAVE A CONFURMED RELESE DATE ON 1999

[shell snow]

No, but it’s today for sure

[vale sorrel]

It's today or you'll eat your hat

You fool! I don’t have a hat

[vale sorrel]

You will buy a hat to eat

Me waiting at 1999:

[vale sorrel]

Us all rn

[nocturne kiln]

Why does DE always choose the strangest grab bag of choices when approving operator cosmetics from the workshop?

Other than two of them being purple, none of these go together

[warm anvil]

wrong

[dusky rover]

Right

[rain otter]

They are 1999 coded

[nocturne kiln]

I lived through that year. People had some bad taste but usually the bad taste matched

[oblique dirge]

theyre not supposed to go together, theyre a collection not an outfit

[nocturne kiln]

....Explain every other collection in the game then

[oblique dirge]

theyre accesories, youre not supposed to equip every one at once

[amber terrace]

All I know is that I’m getting the headphones definitely and maybe the eyepiece

[real niche]

Explain the U19 update collection :v

[jagged sable]

I know it's probably not gonna be the case but i really really really really really wish that 1999 would launch the day after the game awards.

xD

[rain otter]

I mean it's gotta be soon

Like we are having a giant ramp up.

[amber terrace]

Speculation: there is a non-zero probability that 1999 could be a TGA release, similar to Empyrean

[zenith jacinth]

Gonna be DElayed by one day every time someone asks that question

[solemn cloud]

As the saying goes, the plane has to take off and we're almost out of runway.

So expect it to drop sooner than Christmas.

Too many stat holidays coming up to do it any later.

[fading current]

https://tenor.com/view/i-need-it-spongebob-spongebob-squarepants-gif-4883506

[rain otter]

Okay no one actually told you a real answer. So the answer is we will know the Release date at the game awards DE have said this. The current theory is its gonna be out very soon after the game awards cuz DE is officially like putting out all the "this update is gonna be out soon" news like the size of the update and stuff.

[jagged sable]

all we know is that it's less than 20 days til 1999 releases.

[rain otter]

20 days? Oh 31 days in December.

I mean we would assume cuz DE takes a few weeks off for the holidays it would release before Christmas or even before that week I would guess.

[simple python]

DE is on staff break Dec. 20th

[rain otter]

But also like I said DE doesn't usually give out expected update sizes and stuff if it's gonna be a while.

[jagged sable]

*less than 9 days til 1999 drops.

[simple python]

At least from what other people have told ke. They take their winter break a few days before the 25th.

[rain otter]

Yeah until like

The first of the year or something.

[simple python]

Around the third or so.

[rain otter]

I remember the dumb non drama people where mad about when we had a lotta bad faith people covering warframe going "oh well you see the put out on all the consoles before they left cuz DE is monsters you see".

[simple python]

About... roughly the same winter break that schools get.

Vin, what? Rephrase that please.

[rain otter]

Okay people this was a long time ago people actually got upset DE like takes holiday breaks.

I actually think it happened again at Zariman and Zariman actually didn't have that many bugs.

[simple python]

Oh... when Angels/New War released?

[rain otter]

Angles and then long before that it was a common "criticism".

[simple python]

I remember. New War was the December release and Angels was the February/March release?

[rain otter]

A lot of the like warframe tubers and stuff that used to "say warframe is dying" all the time are mostly gone now actually.

[rain otter]

I think they also have a break around there I don't remember exactly I remember people being dumb though. Might have been new war more.

But yeah it was a bad criticism people used to make a lot more.

That somehow DE where masterminds that like release broken updates in December so they somehow don't have to deal with them or something I never understood it.

[simple python]

I felt like the Prelude to New War was really the only dry spot I remember of my time here (in Warframe)

[rain otter]

yeah i would agree.

it's been only getting better since around deadlock tbh.

[supple dagger]

God I love this screenshot I took. Completely relatable

Nef Anyo recovered a number of Warframe components from Alad’s liquidation post New War and has been corporate espionage-ing Warframe manufacturing tolerances from Granum. Now Nef has a somewhat complete Warframe unit with a Cephalon driving it with profit being the forefront principle. Play as [Warframe] after the cephalon contacts the Tenno with this profit oriented Cephalon guiding us through giving the Corpus a thorough liquidation

I can imagine the Drifter stealing a bunch of knives from around the Zariman and playing knife darts with Ballas’ portrait

If Ballas wasn’t in charge of the Sentient/Narmer invasion and Erra was, what would’ve been Erra’s goal?

[nova harness]

Taking over the System

Difference is he would’ve failed

[amber terrace]

So what does that entail? Or was Erra’s plan so half baked that it was literally

"Bom pom pom… (sing-song) taking over the System, one sector at a time, keeping the Tenno distracted, making all their stuff mine… (normal voice) oh, I am GOOD at this."

[brave echo]

I cant believe I never thought of this before. Time to buy some knives

[jovial bison]

2 hours until Giant Bomb @ Nite hopefully we see some sneak peaks

[amber terrace]

Where is this being streamed?

[jovial bison]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUe0wlv2G_c

[amber terrace]

Not on twitch?

[jovial bison]

It says on the titlecard right there, twitch.tv/giantbomb

[amber terrace]

Ah, mb

[balmy storm]

I put spoons in his eyes and knives in his body

[zenith jacinth]

That's tuvul

[spice wyvern]

shhhh let 'em figure it out

[night grail]

Close enough

[amber terrace]

It tickles me pink to see Warframe file sizes, like DE is cutting down Xbox Series X|S from 58 GB to 45.5 GB, that’s 12.5 GB down! If this were literally any other game, with the amount of playable content in the game that Warframe has, I’m confident we’d be approaching the Terabyte range after and update like 1999

[jovial bison]

Giant bomb is live! (:

[fading current]

Imma have them live on my aux as I drive home. Off the next 2 days🙏🏻

[jovial bison]

They're live for 6h, I am pretty sure DE won't be on the entire time, just for a segment of it though

[amber terrace]

The Call is playing!

[jovial bison]

Could be a few hours until DE is on btw

[tight pagoda]

Does this have Twitch Drops?

[jovial bison]

no

[fading current]

That’s ok lol. I like to have background noise on anyway so this’ll be perfect.

[rain otter]

No it does?

@tight pagoda let me FIND IT

[jovial bison]

Real phone number? lol

[rain otter]

@jovial bison you where wrong @tight pagoda it's a Free Nyx

[jovial bison]

That's for tomorrow during the Game Awards

[rain otter]

OH

[jovial bison]

There isn't a drop for Giant Bomb

[rain otter]

I'm dumb I thought the game awards.

I'll take the L I thought where talking about the game awards.

[jovial bison]

DE will be on in less than an hour

[thick jolt]

oh yeah they did mention a pre show they would host

had forgotten about that one

[tight pagoda]

They should add this to the OnLyne fan site

Since it’s canonically made by R. Ford (or Rebecca F., can’t remember)

[tight pagoda]

It’s live!

Hang on, what happened to those Tennobaum twitch drops?

[amber terrace]

New On-Lyne song in waiting room?

[fading current]

YEPP I THINK SO

Sounded like ‘em anyway haha

Ben is late!!!! Albrecht would be so disappointed

BEN AND NEIL!!!!!

[graceful zodiac]

Oh, what is Ben wearing

[fading current]

[nova harness]

Tracksuit

[tight pagoda]

Bros got the Miles Morales original

[graceful zodiac]

Neil going real talk with those glasses on is killing me

[amber terrace]

Is that it? The panel is over?

[fading current]

Yep

See ya at TGA

[night grail]

That lockdown baby song?

[amber terrace]

I guess? Sorry, the excitement of 1999 is frying what’s left of my brain like an egg

[night grail]

After party of your lifetime?

[amber terrace]

I think?

It’s late for me and what’s left of my brain is melting out of my ears, damaging my headphones, and getting all over my shoes

[night grail]

Ben got access to the tennogen irl

[fading current]

I’m in the same boat lmao. 🫂

[versed brook]

i love spending my time pre-1999 prepping a vanity build that will be overkill

[open vault]

Main characters in anime be like

[amber terrace]

I’m waiting ever so patiently for the streetwear

The nanoinstant 1999 drops and I have to redownload it on my Xbox because DE is so good that they found a way to reduce overall file size on their largest update yet, I’m gonna get the streetwear and rock that to 1999

[zenith jacinth]

I'm waiting very impatiently for the edgy clothes

[amber terrace]

I’m torn between the goth and grunge sets

[zenith jacinth]

Both

[amber terrace]

Whichever would look best with my Drifter

[amber terrace]

I’m getting the big bundle lol 😂

[zenith jacinth]

Your drifter has witnessed a murder

[amber terrace]

?

[zenith jacinth]

The eyes

[versed brook]

I'm gonna send my girl in in the necramech outfit (just got it) but she'll probably pick up something from the time after a bit of time there

[zenith jacinth]

Look terrified

[versed brook]

You can't give an immortal void demon who spent god knows how long in a time loop normal jeans instantly she will combust

[zenith jacinth]

Not exactly immortal but yes

[versed brook]

Truly the drifter is about to experience massive culture shock

[drowsy finch]

When is 1999 is releasing?

[balmy storm]

Sometime between the game awards and the 20th

[drowsy finch]

Oki

[balmy storm]

Honestly, it’s likely a game awards release

Tune in tomorrow for the release date

[amber terrace]

Unknown. However speculation and consulting Eternalism has given us three, equally likely options.
12/12: TGA release
12/13: day after TGA release
12/18: last Wednesday before DE goes on holiday break

[balmy storm]

Big doubt they’d do the 18th, that’d be bad for everyone since DE would have what, maybe 2 days for hotfixes

If not this week then likely monday ngl

[amber terrace]

Hmm… I haven’t considered that option

[velvet meteor]

reduce file size
By fully deleting any mentions of raids😔

[amber terrace]

I’m still holding out an educated wish that Raids will be even briefly considered after 1999

[balmy storm]

Iirc they do want to do them at some point

And tbh I can def see raids coming back sometime in the future

I kinda feel like the PVPVE gamemode is maybe them testing those waters to some extent

[fading current]

Can’t believe that it’s finally the day we find out what the release date is…time sure flies!!

[balmy storm]

Honestly, it’d make sense to have a bigger squad if we’re having to fight specific bigger threats in the near(ish) future

[amber terrace]

If I were in Ms. Ford’s shoes, I’d probably want to pump the breaks on new major content drops after 1999 and focus on older content like Warframes, tilesets, mission types, the works and once DE cleans up the backlog of stuff, then DE would focus on large scale entirely new content

[balmy storm]

I can’t believe i made it through the week!

[amber terrace]

Finals?

If so, then same here

[balmy storm]

Nah, lotsa appointments

[amber terrace]

Ah, fair

[balmy storm]

I am
So tired

[amber terrace]

Valid

[fading current]

SAME haha so busy at work. Worked 57 hours this week. I’m DONE.

[balmy storm]

Oof, get some well deserved rest my friend
And then gear up for the party of your lifetime

[fading current]

Oh you know I will!!! Or try to get some rest…my hype might keep me awake

[balmy storm]

So valid

I’m not even sure I’ll be able to see when they give the release
Which if its at the game awards I won’t be able to play the quest right away
In which case best case with that maybe they push out a hotfix before i play

[fading current]

kinda hoping for Friday release cuz that’s my payday…and my wallet is ready for the market lol

[balmy storm]

You can wait a single day if it’s at the awards lol
It’d actually be less than a day tbh

[amber terrace]

When I wake up in the morning, I’m gonna listen to so much ‘Into The Void’ by Nine Inch Nails that what’s left of my brain is gonna leak out of my ears and damage my headphones

[balmy storm]

I got my Aoi shirt ready

[supple dagger]

its not gonna be released on the game award day; thats when they are annoucing the release date

[noble drift]

I am not putting it past them to announce "now" as the release date

[balmy storm]

wow
it's almost like they can announce the release date to be right there and then

[supple dagger]

my fav is eleanor

shes hot

[balmy storm]

they've done game awards releases before

they can do it again

[supple dagger]

ive never even heard of game awards

i dont watch these thigns. i rather read

its condensed

[balmy storm]

ok

dont watch it then lol

[supple dagger]

throwing attitude for what? just cause u wanna sit there for 6 hours doesnt mean i do. damn u cant carry a convo

[balmy storm]

???
all I said was don't watch it cause you don't want to

[supple dagger]

why are u telling me

[balmy storm]

it's also not a 6 hour show like what

[supple dagger]

ok,a nd u take things literally

bye

[balmy storm]

bye, enjoy the update whenever it's released

[thick jolt]

That was an interaction ever

[balmy storm]

mhm

[steady mango]

Definitelly one of the interactions ever

[covert tree]

When 1999 releases I'm gonna break down due to not having any money to spend on gemi skins

[solemn cloud]

If they cost platinum and not dollars - then just tell everyone to give you gift cards (PlayStation, visa, etc) for Christmas.

[supple dagger]

When it's Christmas if y'all wf players are lucky imma bless u with plat no cap

Depends on how I feel

[solemn cloud]

#respect

[covert tree]

That'd be very clem

Wait a min if i get arthur on Christmas it'll be arthur Christmas

[zenith jacinth]

Weren't they gonna be unlockable for free with the bundle just being like prime access basically

[supple dagger]

He said he has no money, meaning no bundle, let alone prime access

[zenith jacinth]

Can. Can you read properly? I did not say that tiv should buy prime access. At all.

[supple dagger]

I said let alone. U know what it means?

[zenith jacinth]

I said that the bundle would act like prime access, instantly giving you something you can also get for free

[supple dagger]

And I'm saying he can't buy it cause he can't even buy the skins. The bundle is more.expenaive

[supple dagger]

Nor did i

[zenith jacinth]

Bruh

[covert tree]

You can't get the gem skins for free they're cosmetic (without plat farming)

[zenith jacinth]

Reading comprehension

[supple dagger]

Sigh. I have an honors bachelor's in env studies ofc I can read

[zenith jacinth]

Free cosmetics are a thing, even for frame skins

[supple dagger]

Anyway

[covert tree]

Ik but not the Gemini skins there available for plat

That's it

[zenith jacinth]

Don't seem like it mate

[supple dagger]

Brooooooooo

[zenith jacinth]

I remember them saying that the skins would be unlockable through gameplay, maybe I'm wrong

[covert tree]

I dont think so

[zenith jacinth]

Would be unusual for DE to lock something so unique behind plat or money

[valid falcon]

Gemini will be plat skin, like deluxes

[supple dagger]

Time to throw out my horrible op

To use protoframe

Why does eleanor as a psychological person need to be so weird with her tongue

[valid falcon]

Why not

[supple dagger]

If it wasn't because of her tongue, she's kinda perfect

[zenith jacinth]

Would be nice if I liked any of the frames that the hex are, but I guess this way I don't have to worry about getting the skins

[zenith jacinth]

As a what?

[covert tree]

You don't know if you dont like cyte you've not uses him

[valid falcon]

Good for you

[zenith jacinth]

I like cyte's abilities based on what they've shown but I don't like quincy

[covert tree]

K

[supple dagger]

Psychological manipulator

[zenith jacinth]

Psychic?

[valid falcon]

My no.1 priority when 1999 releases is buying Aoi skin

[covert tree]

I want arthur I don't main excal he's just got nice buns

[zenith jacinth]

Eleanor has to use telepathy to communicate because her transformation is more advanced than the others'

[valid falcon]

Man`s got his priorities straight

[supple dagger]

Yh, psychic

[zenith jacinth]

Good reason

[covert tree]

No my priorities are gay?

[valid falcon]

[covert tree]

My want for arthur made my friend switch mains

[valid falcon]

[covert tree]

He already wanted to but it was a push he needed

[valid falcon]

From what to what did he switch to

[covert tree]

Mesa he went from sword to strap

[valid falcon]

[covert tree]

I also want amir's skin bc volt and he seems like a silly lil guy

[simple python]

Eleanor lost the ability to speak due to that tongue.

[supple dagger]

Oh damn

[simple python]

She also gained psychological powers

I feel like it was implied??? All I knew was that Eleanor cannot vocalize audibly anymore, and if she's genuinely moving her mouth to vocalize, like in the Hollvania preview, it's an animation error. Btw DE... get that fixed, please.

[supple dagger]

I don't watch their stories or cinematics or anything

[covert tree]

Why not

[simple python]

It was in the relay featured literally last month

[supple dagger]

Uninterested. I just wanna play

[covert tree]

Oh........

[zenith jacinth]

Average warframe player

[simple python]

You really can't skip out on learning the hex.

[covert tree]

I like the lore

[simple python]

That's literally what DE was saying. They want to give you a preface going into 1999.

[supple dagger]

Bro telling me like it's school

[covert tree]

Warframe is a story and gameplay game your ignoring a chunk of it I'm not trying to be rude though your choice

[supple dagger]

I do it to every game

[covert tree]

That has to get boring

[supple dagger]

No. It's less boring so I can play, for me

[covert tree]

So your not much of a story person

[zenith jacinth]

I too have more fun when I'm missing half the game

[covert tree]

What

[zenith jacinth]

✨ Sarcasm ✨

[simple python]

He's taking the piss

[covert tree]

Oh

Can't read emotion well not my fault

[supple dagger]

Yeah. I make piano music tho

[simple python]

Don't forget Devstream

Also what was that 10pm stream from warframe last night?

[valid falcon]

Giant Bomb Stream

[zenith jacinth]

Just a panel on some other stream thing

[simple python]

Ah

[zenith jacinth]

My excitement for tga has been increasing rapidly since I woke up

[simple python]

I've been playing Bayonetta to take my mind off it

[covert tree]

Same

[zenith jacinth]

Somehow the excitement is fighting with my intense tiredness likely caused by my sudden stopping of taking my antidepressants

I've been playing witcher 3 since it was on sale for just 10€

[covert tree]

I exclusively play warframe mostly with crap progress on most stuff

[zenith jacinth]

I have many games

Currently installed are 3 roguelikes, skyrim, terraria, mhrise, witcher 3, warframe...

I had more but I frogor

[covert tree]

I really need to lock in on warframe

[zenith jacinth]

If you wanna speedrun liches I'd come along, I need more kuva weapons

Or tenet

[covert tree]

Nah I need to do syndicates and sp modding

[solemn cloud]

Man, that interview with all the VAs was great. Even learned a couple lore bits - that Viktor is a crap poet, and that going into the story Arthur and Aoi had a breakup.

Downside is that means my Drifter will end up being a rebound relationship with Arthur 😅

[covert tree]

I'm gonna make sure they're nver getting back together

[solemn cloud]

Ditto.

[zenith jacinth]

I'm gonna make them involuntarily get back together by dating both of them

[covert tree]

Damn

[agile cipher]

So what are we thinking, release at TGA or next week?

[zenith jacinth]

Soon

[simple python]

Soonish

[covert tree]

It released in 1999 we just have to search for the update code

[cursive merlin]

I do expect it to be a few days until 1999 drops, but there's always that little voice in the back of my head whispering about how funny it would be if they pull it up on the big screen at the game awards with the text "available now"

[covert tree]

If that happens I'll turn blue

[robust swallow]

can anyone give me a tldr on giantbomb stream, i missed it

[covert tree]

Then watch the vod

[pseudo rock]

tldr of the vod :D?

[covert tree]

Idk I didn't watch

[tight pagoda]

Mostly a cast interview

[agile cipher]

The only new bit of lore we got was that Viktor is a “crappy poet”

Besides that it was mostly info we knew about already from the update but it gives more insight into how the actors feel about the characters

[robust swallow]

thanks

[plush swan]

The more I think about this, the less likely it seems.

Launching an update at 19:30 on a Thursday is just asking for trouble.

I'm guessing that it will launch at 10:00 next Tuesday, so they'll have the rest of the day, and the rest of the week, to fix any bugs that show up.

[cursive merlin]

I mean yeah obviously they won't launch it at the awards, there's just that funny lil voice in the back of my head saying it'd be funny

[noble bane]

what if its december 31st 23:59

would make sense with the story

[shell snow]

Nah they’ll release it yesterday for sure

[robust swallow]

they're gonna release it a little before going on vacation to not let us exploit day 1 bugs

[fading current]

They’ll be on holiday. So not likely.

[thick jolt]

That doesnt make any sense
If they release it just before going on vacation then we would get to enjoy day 1 bugs for as long as they are on vacation

[robust swallow]

that's what i'm saying, releasing it and leaving about a week to weed out major bugs

[thick jolt]

Ah then its just a disagreement on how long is "a little"

[covert tree]

No that's a dumb idea

[zenith jacinth]

That's how they usually do december releases

[tender pine]

I guess we're thinking 1999 drops next tuesday?

[agile cipher]

A lot of people think it’s dropping tonight or tomorrow, I’m on the boat of it being Monday/Tuesday as well

[tender pine]

I want it tonight

[covert tree]

I think the weekend would bee cool

[agile cipher]

I’m already going to stay up later even though I got work in the morning just in case it drops tonight

(It’s gonna be at 00:30 for me)

[tender pine]

I've been going into this week assuming it's tonight

[simple python]

Okay so... in prep for TGA, I'm gonna style my hair like Arthur... again. Work's been getting in the way of that

[plush swan]

The more I think about it, the more sense it makes.

Maybe Monday or Wednesday, but...

[fading current]

Probably tomorrow, or Wednesday. Still feels late to me but we’ll find out in 7 hours

[covert tree]

Nice

[plush swan]

Tomorrow is right before the weekend, tho'

[fading current]

Just predictions my friend ..
