Can i get some gaf impressions? I never played this but enjoyed dark sector. How is this?
The comparisons to PSO are really valid.
The game is very fluid and fast paced. If you've ever played Gunz the Duel imagine all the movements in that game minus the jank. As in, you got wall runs, knee slides, jumping front flips, falling sword stabs, and tons of movements at your disposal.
You also have a nice (but currently) small array of weapons you can unlock. Most of the weapons use Platinum (in game currency you need real money to buy) to unlock, but a few are buyable with the money you earn normally.
If you aren't willing to spend real money, then you can buy the blueprint for the weapon with game money, but then you have to go out and find the ingredients, and then wait for the weapon to finish, which could take real time days to build.
Instead of classes you have Warframes, each with their own stats and skills. You have stealth based warframes, melee focused, crowd control, support, and so on.
Weapons can have "mods" attached to them which range from elemental damage to faster reloading to more crit chance or high crit damage and so on.
My only one real complaint with the game is the repetitiveness of the missions and the environments you do them in. Most of them are just KILL EVERYTHING IN THIS HERE SHIP or GRAB THIS ITEM, THEN KILL EVERYTHING. Most of the missions take place on enemy starships, but I have played some planetary missions.
The game is only in open beta currently so hopefully once the game fully releases we'll see some more variety in the content.
All in all its a fun game, and its F2P so its a great game to pick up and play in short bursts here and there.
. I hope you check out our new trailer and stay tuned for more details throughout the summer on Warframe!
