This is an excellent free to play game.

This one reminds me alot of Destiny with its differing mission locations on planets. Though each mission even if you do the same one is always different. The maps in this game use specifc locations but put them together differently each time.

In addition this game has alot of parkor moments and alot of hidden places to find and go to. If you can get there chances are there is something hidden there.

This game uses a cash shop although using it is easy its not always the best thing to do...as you still have to play. Alot of the game is unlocked by completing specifc missions and leveling up your items and you own character. The cash shop also allows you to use in game cash to get certain items like scanners and blueprints....but also lets you spend real cash to do the same thing.

Your character has what is called a mastery rank this is raised by completing tests. To unlock the ability to complete a test you again have to play the game.
Your items, warframe, weapons, sentinels, etc, all have levels as they go up levels you gain more experience thus can eventualy do a test you unlock another mastery rank.

In a way this game can be very grindy, but with each frame offering 5 differing powers and a differing look and considering you can choose whatever weapons you want it makes this game have alot of replay ability.

My only gripe is a few things....the tutorial and help stuff isnt very good....at times i didnt see what i was supposed to do next and didnt see the small text explaining my powers or how i could open certain lockers etc. In addition I literally had to look some things up on a warframe wiki or just found out after readiong some of the in game players chatting about differing things.


Also many missions seam to just all together give up on stealth....there you are sneaking around taking your time....and suddenly everything comes after you.

I tend to do things slowly....i like to ninja the missions in games...kill them all so to speak at times.....but this game sometimes forces me to run out.

Fissure missions, bounty missions and infested missions all have this global they come right at you thing.....no matter where you are.....its very annoying.

This in turn makes me miss items and hidden stuff....which is annoying and disapointing.

All in all i recommend this game.

They are continualy updating and fixing things....the newest frame called the titania is alot of fun to play.

All i need now is a cat one(cat ears and a tail on a female frame) i can already think of what it would have on it.

Sooo in conclusion....play this game....its free after all.

Well i thank you for adding that information for everyone to see.

I play many many many games. So for me...i see many similaritys in many games.

its true warframe doesnt have DLC....it instead features a robust cash shop allowing the player to purchase things to enhance their game play at a faster rate of speed.

while destiny instead of using a subscription they have dlc every so often...ie the hybrid version of the cash shop and subscription model.

i wont comment much more on destiny as this is review about warframe and not destiny.

But this game has decent developers and you don't HAVE to pay for any DLC. In Destiny, if you do not buy any DLCs, you will be stuck. EVERY SINGLE RAID IN DESTINY, is made pointless by the next one.

Thats a good question why it reminds me of Destiny. Destiny like this game is an alternate future of mankind after a mysterious disaster. In Destiny its implied its due to this giagantic machine called the Traveller but as you play it becomes noticable thats not the only reason for the disaster.

Warframes disaster is still unknown to me....all i know is that the remanents of humans had advanced enough technology to create the bio-organic warframe suits....which it seams only the waking sleepers from centuries ago can still use....I am thinking i am not far enough inthe game yet.

Both games happen centuries after a golden age.

Both games utilize a hub system to go from place to place. With a planet you select and then see all the interconnacting points which are all missions.

Like i said it reminds me of destiny.

Destiny was made by Bungie, this game wasn't, so why would you compare it to that? (Bungie says alot of bullshit to boost sales. EXAMPLE: they were having too much trouble "porting" DLCs to "last gen" consoles so that didn't release the latest DLC for PS3 and XBOX 360, which was for the purpose of PS4 and XBONE sales.)

over 1000 hours and about $250+ in this game now, there's no denying how good this game has been for me :steamhappy:
ivara (third power) + redeemer = nobody will see or hear nothing ;)
