Warframe: Official Thread

Is't this a F2P title? If so is it worth the download and life span? So many F2P games as of late! Cool but the leveling system and grinding could get tedious... what your experiences thus far?

I'm loving it still and I've been playing since closed beta

they update almost daily and they actually add stuff with every update most of the time.

It does start off a bit slow but if you stick with it it branches out a lot mission wise

not so much leveling as ranking. your warframe, primary weapon, secondary weapon and sword all rank individually depending on how you use them. and then dot added abilities and "buffs" there is the whole mod card/fusion system

there is a slight aspect of P2W, where you have to spend real world money on plats to in order to buy some of the really cool stuff, but it's not crippling and if you have the will and patience you can make most of it in the foundry with blueprints. but definitely one of my favourite F2P games

oh yeah, and it's pretty :D

I haven't played much yet but it was fun so far, even though I was playing by myself.
 
I'd join you guys, but I've literally only done two or three matches so far, so I might be a bit underpowered.

It's the same for me, but I've actually started a mission that I'm way underpowered in, so I think I need the help of others.
 
My EMBER Warframe was completed yesterday.

Was complimented on my Warframe's looks - needless to say, I felt uncomfortable, but played along :D

I don't mean to hijack the thread here, but I played Warframe yesterday afternoon and I found it to be really repetitive. Admittedly, I played it solo, but I didn't really see much variety in the missions. Does it get more interesting? Is it only meant to be fun by playing it with friends? How easy is it to unlock stuff without paying tons o' cash?

Some recommendations or insight would be appreciated.

Also, how big is Update 8 (I hate that it doesn't tell you the size of the remaining download :P)?

It starts off a bit repetitive but you have to stick with it. once you move on to the other planets the mission variety unfolds

There are currently 10 types of mission in Warframe. Sometimes, a second mission type and/or Secondary Objectives will randomly be included, but will not be known or made available until the first mission is completed. A list of all missions can be seen here.

with enough grinding you can buy and make almost anything that would normally cost you plats
