Yes. Right now the player is faced with a faction called the Grineer, who's largely the first fraction you encounter in the game. So, a new player is familiar with them. In the daytime, new players will be very comfortable, learning things about the world. But at nighttime, the Eidolon comes out and that is an enemy that can only be encountered by someone that has the gear and the progression in the game to do so. We're talking hours into the game to unlock different quests to give them access to the Tenno, your operator, so that's a progression lock, more or less. This "kaiju" we call it, can't be countered by someone who hasn't progressed far enough. So it's an end game version of nighttime.

In an interview belonging to the Noclip documentary series by Daniel O'Dwyer, Digital Extremes Studio Manager Sheldon Carter detailed an unexpected result that occurred when the developer introduced a small microtransaction for Kubrows, an in-game virtual pet. The studio had implemented what Carter defines as a "slot machine lever" that allowed gamers - for the price of about $0.67 - to randomize the fur pattern and fur color of their pet Kubrow. While it was only a cosmetic feature, the idea of putting something so random behind a paygate drew the ire of many of the game's fans. Still, Digital Extremes went forward with the idea - until one fan spent well over $100 on it almost immediat

Another month means another round of freebies for PlayStation Plus subscribers.

Last year, Warframe came to the Nintendo Switch in a move that was so technically amazing that we’re still not quite sure how it was done. Warframe is not a light game by any means--some of the latest open-world updates can tax a mid-range PC--but it runs so smoothly on the portable system that it boggles the m

These games will appeal to new PlayStation 4 owners that only just got their consoles during the holiday season, although the range of software isn't as appealing as November 2018's PlayStation Plus offering. Sony also wants Warframe fans to know that they can secure the warframe strategy|https://warframebase.com/: PlayStation Plus Booster Pack III until January 15, 2019. This comes with 100 Platinum, 100,000 Credits, Quanta (a Corpus laser rifle), Quanta Obsidian Skin, 7-Day Affinity Booster, and a 7-Day Credit Booster to add further value to the PlayStation Plus members

Steep is the highlight of January 2019's PlayStation Plus games, partially because it ties into the winter season so well. Developed by Ubisoft, this is a fun snowboarding romp that allows players to carve up the slopes and even take to the skies with a wingsuit. It makes for a fun addition to anyone's PlayStation 4 libra

Developer Digital Extremes isn’t slowing down. They plan to add more space combat later this year with the Railjack expansion, remaster Jupiter’s Gas City map, as well as adding ever more Warframes and weapons for players to gobble up and mas

Zone of the Enders HD Collection and Amplitude round out what's being offered to PS3 owners through PlayStation Plus in January. The former is a complete remaster of one of the most iconic games in Konami's library, featuring giant mechs and intense battles. Meanwhile, Amplitude (which is developed by Rock Band studio Harmonix) is a single-player rhythm title that puts music at the forefront of the experience. It includes tunes from composers like Darren Korb ( Transistor ), C418 ( Minecraft ), Danny Baranowsky ( Crypt of the Necrodancer ), Insomniac Games, Freezepop, Kickstarter backers, and Harmonix’s in-house compos

When Carter and the rest of the development staff looked at the ~$137 purchase history of a man who really, really wanted to find the perfect fur pattern for his in-game pet, they realized they had essentially created a slot machine that impulsive players would gamble away significant amounts of money on. While many studios would consider this a big win, Digital Extremes made the decision that this kind of activity wasn't healthy for the playerbase in the long run. As Carter explained, it wasn't long before the 'gambling fur randomizer' was removed from the game entir
