Summary of large-scale updates of warframe29. 10.0
The next update we will release on PC is update 29.10.0: Corpus proxima centauri New Channel Starship. This update involves almost every part of the channel starship. In our longest developer workshop article so far, we will tell you what changes have been made and why. Dreamers, relax.
Warframe has several key advantages to help it stand the test of time in the video game world. One of these advantages is the sense of "fluency". Knife and gun are integrated together, and the task goal is clear, which can challenge reaction and consciousness. From the first time you enter the map, the task progress will flow into the joint progress, leading to the natural opening of a series of tasks and other systems.
Enter the channel starship. This technology comes from ancient warfare, and when applied today, it can bring all the battles of Warframe into orbit. We tried many different things. Although some elements do provide a unique way for the existing formula, it is not suitable for everyone, and many people complain that the number separated from the main game content is not good. We also agree with this. To quote the venerable Chinese Cy: We have something to do.
When we re-examine the channel starship in 20021year, our overall goal is to simplify these conflict points and better integrate Warframe's iconic "process". This process has been evolving for the core Warframe for many years, which is largely due to our constant rework and reproduction. From the "spin leap" to "a generation of sword sect", our road is rarely smooth. If any Tenno chooses to customize his own channel starship and name it "Theseus theseus", then you may find something.
What is a "new channel starship"? The name is incredibly simple. Further content will be expanded in the following article, with the way you interact with it as the index. But everything here may change.

What happens after you log in?
More accessible:
First of all, if you haven't built your channel starship in part of Surge, the cost of starship components and the time required to build each component have been greatly reduced (the difference in cost will be returned to those early players). To put it simply: the part of the liver has decreased.
If you want to go directly to the action link, a complete channel starship will also be provided in the store under the new channel starship category, which can be purchased with platinum. Maybe you have noticed a way-when we released the dead mecha, we didn't sell them at a white gold price. They appeared in the store many months later in the poison of Aoying. Paradoxically, as a free game, we didn't put these new items in the store. There is really no good reason for this. Players who own Platinum-whether buying or trading-have indeed made it clear that they want to have the option to buy new items. And now this option is coming. If you want to take the free route, it will be easier because you need fewer resources.
Avionics equipment to Mod:
Now let's talk about avionics. Before you leave, be sure to recheck the avionics in your fairway starship, which has been redesigned as fairway starship MOD!
Yes, avionics no longer exist. The whole system has been completely transformed, including avionics equipment has also become an ordinary Mod, so everything has been cancelled and reset. The days of upgrading the grid and praying that your host player's fairway starship has the avionics you want to use are over. In fact, you haven't even equipped anything on the Channel Starship itself. ...
Understanding "deep control";
Instead, Tenno will have a "deep control", which they will take with them to install three familiar avionics in every channel starship mission. The combat/tactical Mod will remain unchanged, but it is personalized for you and can be used when you board any channel starship. The integrated Mod will be separated like an armor mod. Personal Mod slot that is only beneficial to you personally and aura Mod that is beneficial to the channel starship and the whole team. The halo Mod of deep control will directly enter the designated halo slot, similar to the mod on your armor!
We hope to help reduce the learning curve of new players when we return to the familiar interface of installing Mod. Switching to personal Mod configuration should also make the game experience more consistent, including the setting of public matching.
In order to increase convenience, the deep control can be modified in many places: in your dry dock terminal (as before), in the new dry dock of various relay stations (accessible by fast moving), and even in your own orbiter!
The complete details about the Mod conversion of channel starship will be introduced in the update log!
Dirac core to internal core
Since avionics are now treated as ordinary Mod, Dirac core (the upgrade resource of avionics) will be transformed into an internal core to obtain a more cohesive upgrade experience. All Dirac cores spent on your cell will be repaid (that is, if your cell reaches the maximum, at most 39,000 Dirac cores can be converted into internal cores), and all existing Dirac core stocks will be converted into internal cores at the rate of 1: 1 when logging in at 29 29. 10.0.
Endogenous force 2.0
Now, enter the part of endogenous power! First of all, when you log in, you need to reset all your internal forces! Because we have changed a lot of content, we want to make sure that every player can use their internal power in new ways. This gives us the opportunity to rebuild all kinds of process branches in an all-round way, and reward the players with their investment in the process.
The following is a complete table of the current changes, from the level 1- 10 to the internal force of each category. This is probably the most uncertain part of the developer workshop, because we really want to make some changes. Nevertheless, the following is our current plan to change the internal force!
Internal force of command
The table contains all the details you have learned about the internal force, but we will also add the internal force of the command! The final version of Endogenous Force will debut in update 29. 10.0!
Once you upgrade the internal force of the command and provide space for the crew, it's time to visit Ticker in Fortuna. She can help you contact all kinds of people from all corners of the map at a suitable rental price! Their price may depend on your cooperation with some groups-some crew members will join your team at a discounted price, while others will double the price! Your group alliance determines everything. With fewer than 4 players, the crew will help maintain the normal operation of the channel starship. That is to say-if Tenno can't finish the task independently, your crew will help you! Each crew member can be permanently recruited once, but if you want to have more than three crew members, you need to buy more crew slots through the store or "terminate the contract" with one crew member. It should be noted that the internal force of the full command (10) was not available at the time of release, because we are still developing the "elite" crew function, and its core function has undergone a reproduction.
Improve their skill level and assign them specific roles before taking off, or change their tasks at any time through the tactical menu! As always, the crew will get experience points, which can be used as "ability points" to improve their talents. In addition, the remonstrated red poison skeletons can be used as the crew of the channel starship to become a defense force, because they have extremely high health, so it is difficult to be defeated.
Prepare for the last stop before departure: dry dock. Don't worry if you can't get into the clan dry dock! Open dry docks can be found on the second and third floors of each platform's relay stations (the PC version is Saturn-Kronia relay station and Pluto-Orcus relay station).
New channel starship component: hull
Although Mod has been moved to the individual player level, the components of your ship, such as shields, engines and weapons, will still depend on the settings of the host player. The update of Corpus channel starship will include some new collectible weapons and upgraded contents, but there will also be a brand-new component: hull materials. Since the changes in health and armor can no longer be applied to the channel starship itself, this component determines the health and armor of your ship.
Wreckage consumption change
When it comes to shields, engines and weapons (armaments and components), we have greatly reduced the resources needed to manufacture them from the obtained wreckage. Simply put, it reduces the liver degree.
Early player
Now let's look at the information about "early players". Whether you are a player who has "completed" the channel starship or a hard-working player who has only been working for a few hours-we have provided you with the right resource package!
Clans with dry docks:
Exclusive clan channel starship monument!

Matching pattern change
Once your course starship and deep control are set up, it's time to find the task. We took advantage of this opportunity to simplify the matching mechanism of the channel starships and better follow the rules of the main game modes. In the past, the host player needed to start the task from his own channel starship (Liset or dry dock). Now, clicking a node that does not disclose a team in the regular star map will start your own task as a host, instead of a pop-up window showing an error that you can't join the team and asking you to go to the dry dock (or the rear of the orbiter).
What will be different in the mission?
When you first set foot on the Channel Starship, you may notice some key differences.
The left and right batteries behind the cockpit no longer exist, but are replaced by the turret entrance at the top and the turret entrance at the bottom of the channel starship. This makes the 360-degree rotation more reasonable, and can improve the feeling of aiming when moving, because now by default, you aim at the direction of the channel starship.
Back in the channel starship, there used to be a large open area with several floors, the top of which was connected to the catapult of the channel starship, followed by the cargo hold. This area basically no longer exists-all the important functions of the channel starship are compressed into a smaller space to reduce the crossing time between stations.
Back in the cockpit, you choose a task node and start from the dry dock. After going to the star area, the channel starship will be lighter and more mobile than before, which not only improves the basic speed of the channel starship, but also eliminates the boost energy bar of the channel starship! The pilot can't fire during the booster flight, but now it's easier to reach the mission target quickly. We added some cooling time to the drift action to balance the removal of the booster bar, but we can still use it more frequently than before!
Open the Tactics menu, and you will find that the minimap is static now, which is the demand of most players. Crew members will also appear at the bottom of the menu, and you can observe their positions or give new orders.
Now, bullets, missiles and fighter planes are flying fast in fierce battles. You aim at a group of Corpus fighters, deploy your personal avionics skills, and then oh no! Someone has used up all the flux energy!
If this has happened to you before, please don't worry. From this update, each player will have all channel starship loads respectively. From general consumables to dome energy bombs, you only need to pay attention to your own load consumption. These consumables will also slowly replenish themselves over time, so the channel starship will always be in a full load state before leaving the dry dock. At a critical moment, creating more loads in the cargo hold will replenish all Tenno's stocks on board, so dedicated engineers can still have a significant impact on the gameplay. This is the best!
Another important change in energy management needs to be noted-as a configuration from channel starship-based avionics to player-based, combat/tactical skills will consume armor energy, and flux energy will be completely removed from the game (all avionics related to it will be converted into an internal core). This enables players with existing energy supplies to make better use of these props in the regular channel starship game, thus further integrating the two aspects of the game. Now-let's talk about reactors. They exist to bring you avionics capacity and flux capacity. These two things have been removed now, so the new function of the reactor is to provide strength, range or duration gain for the channel starship combat avionics used on the ship!
The cost and function of avionics will be rebalanced with this new energy management. Our updated instructions will explain the specific information in the future, because we are still actively adjusting the balance.
The channel starship fault/accident system has also been updated, which will not directly affect the health or shield of the channel starship!
_ The power accident will disturb your mini-map and disable the tactical menu.
_ A catastrophic accident will cause damage to all players on board until it is repaired.
_ Ice-cold accidents can now freeze the interactive elements of channel starships: driver's seat, forging factory, Archwing catapult and turret.
_ Fire accidents will cause weapons to overheat faster and cool slower.
_ All hull breakage accidents were removed.
Unified injury type
The channel starship battle inherits many familiar Warframe damage types, but they are different. Impact becomes ballistic, freezing becomes frost, and so on. We are removing the damage types of the second-tier channel starships to unify them and make the system based on what players have spent time learning: the core elements of Warframe. This means:
Ballistic = impact
Plasma = puncture
Particle = cut
Frost = freezing
Ion = electric shock
Combustion = flame
Chemistry = toxin
Node change
The current channel starship mission nodes are distributed on Earth, Saturn and Veil proxima centauri. They give players a choice, but there is no really meaningful choice. The only choice is outpost-or other nodes that drop the required equipment. then what In the final analysis, players will only play a small number of nodes, and many channel starship task nodes are ignored. We are making some changes, deleting some existing Grineer nodes and making the channel starship develop in a healthy direction. This includes deleting the Gian point. This decision is not rash, but we think it is a necessary step to improve the diversity of tasks. We basically put the advantages of Gian point (a task that can be brushed quickly and has a high experience reward) into the goal of the channel starship itself, so that the diversity of content is not just played on a node repeatedly. The joining of Corpus proxima centauri will bring many new tasks (more than "outpost"! )。 We will also add the Corpus mission to the deep space of proxima centauri.
What can I continue to play?
Corpus channel starship is coming! These flying robots and crew will greatly expand the map of proxima centauri-three new planets (Venus, Neptune and Pluto proxima centauri) will join new enemies and new points of interest. Proxima centauri will also add the most difficult Corpus channel starship mission.
We will also enrich the existing mission types and strive to further combine the experience of the channel starship with the conventional Warframe gameplay.
Some of these new mission types are already familiar to everyone-classic defense and annihilation missions occasionally become the main targets of channel starship missions. Enter the capital ship as a team and withdraw the channel starship after completing the task.
We will also add two new task types! The first one is called Aoying, and everyone who participated in the activity of "Poison of Aoying" is familiar with it-killing Sentient invaders and using commanders and dead mecha to avoid the virtual energy pulse field. These tasks no longer drop tokens, but directly drop empowerment as an alternative to night hunting.
The second is a brand-new mission type, called Outbreak, which will provide the means to destroy the capital ship. Help Central Cy use the environment from the inside to cause reactor failure, and at the same time confront the engineers who come to stop you!
For those Tenno who are keen to explore the proxima centauri area, we will also provide various other secret areas, you can explore them, and maybe you will find some new equipment. Please pay attention to the update instructions.
What will happen next?
Netherstorm and relics!
Different from our original plan, we can't release netherstorm in this update due to a lot of changes and new contents of the new channel starship. But it doesn't matter. Thematically, the real netherstorm belongs to Update 30: The Call of the Storm, which is based on netherstorm in many aspects. When netherstorm really arrives, they will provide Tenno with an opportunity to use the void relics in the channel starship mission! They will be a variety of tasks in rotation, just like the empty cracks in the ordinary star map, but they are much bigger and the storms are more violent.
Of course, the story behind netherstorm and more will be revealed soon.
Update 30: The Call of the Storm
All the work of updating 29. 10.0 is to prepare for updating 30: Call of the Storm. Update 30 will bring Sevagoth an iconic armor series mission, expose a new enemy, and more. We plan to release this update on the whole platform at the same time! Therefore, although update 29. 10.0 will log on to the PC platform first, update 30 will bring all these contents and Sevagoth to the host platform at one time.
Corpus Mystery, also known as Queenpin, is still planned to be released in an independent update in the future. Something like "Update 30.5". However, the updated version number in quotation marks may change.
Lay a better foundation for update 30 and future updates.
This is the last part of this developer workshop. Reading this means that you have officially read our longest developer workshop article so far, and it may also be the most drastic systematic change we have made to Warframe since "Update 7: Storm Messenger" eight years ago. What's going on here? Eight years later, how can we find ourselves still making "drastic systematic changes"? This is a difficult question to answer, and this developer workshop is long enough. The short answer is this:
It is difficult to make Warframe. It's harder to do Warframe well. We try-and then try more things. It constantly needs to be remade, re-examined and rebuilt. The state of the channel starship is far from perfect when it is released, but Warframe is always expected in the future. We tried a remake last year, but it wasn't deep enough. This time is indeed a fundamental change in the channel starship. And this is brand-new content. Unified content. The combination of Warframe core gameplay and channel starship. The combination of the dead mecha and Warframe core gameplay. Now everything is connected. But the most important thing is to connect Tenno who witnessed each iteration and give us understanding and feedback, telling us how to do better. Or at least, not so bad. Every Tenno conveys information to us in his own way. For 8 years, we have always believed: Tenno—-you-are our driving force. Has brought us to unprecedented heights.
Of course it is higher. What exactly is in the sacred device? How to stop the bone snail battleship?
We expect to release this update on the PC in the next week or two. Tenno-it will be updated soon! Any modification to the contents of this developer workshop will be edited in the "Modification" section below! I expect to see some feedback here-we are actively testing and expect some adjustments.
