GR-UK writes: "It has changed us fundamentally." That's what Digital Extremes creative director Steve Sinclair had to say about the studio shifting to F2P with Warframe. GRTV spoke to the creator as the action title was shown at Gamescom, discussing the reception the game's gotten.
"It has changed us fundamentally. Fundamentally to our core," he explained. "Because we don't work for publisher anymore; we work for players.
"The reason I'm actually [at Gamescom] showing it on PS4 is because our players bought Founders packages, they supported the game, got behind it and said - 'you know what, maybe a publisher didn't believe in a space ninja game, but we sure as hell do'."
"Digital Extremes’ free sci-fi epic Warframe, a zeitgeist of online gaming, is now available for Nintendo Switch™ 2." - Digital Extremes.
Very much so, and I sure hope so. I do recall that people pointed that out for System Shock as well (I think that problem has been solved now).
I just downloaded it on my phone a few weeks ago and the framerate isn't bad if you set it to 60hz. I suspect the switch 2 version should fair better interms of performance.
It's originally a game released in 2013, obviously a lot has been changed since, but still the base code for this game was in development before at least 2011, which means that thing was probably going to run on PS3 and XB360 with a few tweaks, Digital Extremes just chose to skip into next gen... Someone would have had to majorly fuck up for the Switch 2 not to run Warframe smoothly, a game with 15 year old mid power target specs! It's a very light and optimized game by now anyway, it famously runs well on relatively old notebooks with CPU integrated graphics... Hell, even the mobile version manages to not run like ass.
That is true, so there should be no problems like you said, unless someone has messed-up really badly.
The game has received many quality of life updates since the PS4 days and receives content drops several times per year. The best part is that it is not pay to win.
It is a great way to unwind, but you will need to be active in the community to play this game. Most of the mechanics are explained by youtubers, forum posts and wiki pages.
Exactly. And nope, it was never a P2W title, and from what I understand, it will remain that way as well.
TNS: Follie is finally here and you'll have to grease the elbows a bit if you want her for free. Here's how to get Follie in Warframe.
"Digital Extremes blended two major announcements with careful brush strokes on Devstream 193: Warframe will be available for Nintendo Switch 2 (and all platforms) alongside its next major update, The Shadowgrapher, for free on Wednesday, March 25." - Digital Extremes.
