TennoCon 2024 | Warframe: 1999 | Full 22-minute Gameplay Demo

TennoCon 2024 showcased Warframe's new era in spectacular fashion with an impressive, 22-minute gameplay demo you won't soon forget.
Warframe: 1999 is both a continuation of the Origin System's epic cinematic narrative and the start of an entirely new way to play. Featuring characters, enemies, weapons and vehicles that are both thrilling and strangely familiar, this is Warframe like you've never experienced it before.
Scheduled to launch on all platforms in Winter 2024, Warframe: 1999 begins where last year's Whispers in the Walls update left off - with the search for Albrecht Entrati. You aren't the only one looking for him, however, as the Protoframes who call themselves "The Hex" have their own scores to settle. Navigate your relationships with them via an all-new romance system, vibe to the smooth harmonies of sensational boy-band On-lyne, combat a militaristic new enemy faction, and bask in the imminent arrival of the long-awaited "Infested Lich" system known as Technocyte Coda.
1999 draws ever closer, Tenno. Don't be late.

[@RedShadowOfSaturn]

They did say "light" rework, however I feel like they said the same about Inaros and he's pretty great now. It's good to know that most of the time lately, they identify problems, fix what's needed and keep most characters as intact as possible, instead of just saying "we're reworking XYZ Frame, trashing the whole thing and potentially making it worse than before."

[@ExceedProduction]

@@RedShadowOfSaturn They're mostly outdone by flashier frames with higher numbers, so just ramping their numbers up and tacking on additional effects would already make them more competitive as a squad choice. Though I doubt they will stop at that, they'll probably reimagine them entirely.

[@RedShadowOfSaturn]

@@ExceedProduction Potentially. Players aren't into CC or squad healing as appealing choices, but...I think if they were being entirely reimagined, Rebecca would've called out them getting full reworks instead of just light reworks? In any case, I'm interested to see what changes with them. I like both of them as older school Warframes, it'd be nice if they could see some popularity in the current sandbox.

The Levarian was one of my favorite parts of Warframe, and to see it not even get a sidequest? Especially for a lore drop that big that Drusus had an assistant? I quit Warframe after that. It's not DE's fault either. I KNOW they can make good updates. Or they used to be able too, but with them being free-to-play, it's starting to fall into the same problem as all FTP games. A need to make money in order to keep going. They don't have the same creative freedom anymore when the design team can't just make a good story, they HAVE to make it encourage some kind of paywall, even if it's avoidable. 1999 looks sick, and I will absolutely play it... But my expectations are not that high. If this ends up being like New War (Which was actually a good update ngl) I'll be happy.

​@@erikirgens4260 If youre a hardcore destiny player then you straight up know youre lying? Wheres warframes raids, how about even so much as strikes? Balance passes to brint overperforminy equipment down so that nothing is trivializing the game? Warframe has been stuck in a status quo of low difficulty, low reward content with all new warframes falling into the same nuking gameplay loop for years now, like cool the story is fun but pretending as if warframe is more innovative with their gameplay loop when its been the exact same for years is disingenuous. Even the new gamemode ascension is sub par with very poor rewards and Alchemy is basically already irrelevant due to how unfun and unrewarding it is.

[@erikirgens4260]

​@@theurbanreanimator7244 Your grievances against Warframe in your comment mean nothing to me because I don't play it. But you HAVE to know that Destiny doesn't change the status quo, either... ever. Even with TFS. The story had maybe 3-5 "interactions" between "characters" in real-time cutscenes at the campfires. The map is just cut up old assets thrown around for nostalgia. The Witness "caves" or whatever we go into were just vignettes with a voiceover. You know what Destiny doesn't have? Vehicles other than sparrows. We can talk about the other vehicles, but since Destiny 1 they've been completely de-emphasized. The combat stays the same. Ghost can't die because he's a MTX item. We could never lose because the game can't end. Narrative stakes don't exist. Strikes and Raids and Dungeons are definitely a core pillar of Destiny, but if you even compare them to other games that have those items they are overshadowed. Destiny will charge you $100 for every new expansion (to include the "Season pass") for content that is a maximum of 10 missions, half of which are uneventful. TFS didn't even bother to break up the gameplay for what little variation there is in Destiny. Despite Lightfall being a disaster of a narrative, it at least tried new things on Neomuna and the missions had varying degrees of intensity and gameplay mechanics. But, yes. We never will get a new form of transportation. We will never get anywhere near the level of dialogue and interaction that we just saw in this TRAILER ALONE (there was more ANIMATED dialogue in this 20 minutes than the entirety of Destiny's expansions). And we will never get our money's worth. I've played every expansion. We should be expecting much more from Bungie for full-priced game "expansions".

Judging with Volts personality being quite quirky and nerdy, i dont think Volt would initiate the first rivalry thingy here but with Gauss on the other hand being quite cocky in his prime trailer, I think Gauss' personality in his prime trailer is quite similar to Scout from TF2. As said with Volts personality, i dont think they'll be rivals, brothers maybe who dont like each other but yea.

[@Xephyranth]

@myu3244 I can see it as a one way rivalry of sorts, while normal Gauss is faster than a combat build/all purpose Volt. But if Volt is focused on speed, he's quite a lot faster than Gauss Could be where Gauss knows Volt's potential but hates how he chooses not to go as fast as he can so the one sided rivalry is there somewhat Heck them being brothers would work with what I wrote as well haha

[@Toughbiscuit_]

[@lucasy4790]

So true, at this point it’s quite obvious Steve was seriously dragging the team. So many half polished updates, and since Reb took over we now have multiple BIG reworks including the Operator rework, Companion rework, shield update, status update and the two literal worst frames that is now much better (Inaros and Hyrdoid).

[@starchild2299]

I didn't want to say it myself, but i agree. The story has become so much more real and emotional, Jade being the latest example of that. My reaction to stalker used to be "ugh, here we go again, let's get this over with", and now i'm legit glad to see him. And i also kept my Jade default fashion, and i share Ordis's happiness when he sees her. And they knew what they were doing letting us hug the cavias, i cry every single time when i hug Tagfer. I don't think they would've taken this direction without Reb, let alone let us romance someone ourselves.

[@bookfish]

I think it helps so much that Rebecca played the game for the longest amount of time out or the old team. She also communicated the most with the players, so they know what they want. I love Steve and appreciated Scott too, but I've always felt like, they don't really play the game on the same level as the players. By this I mostly mean, that they probably had an image in their head, about what Warframe should be like, but somehow the game evolved to a completely different thing, but they refused to let that old image go. Reb feels more like, she's embracing the crazy. Also thank god for Pablo, because everything he touches turns out gold.

[@superfnliminal]

@@bookfish You can see elements of Steve and more specifically Sheldon doing this in the past. NovaUmbral has a great video on the old Relic system and it has examples in it where both Steve and Sheldon had a complete lack of understanding and empathy for what the players were struggling with when trying to get the old Prime Frames and Gear. There were some other DE employees that basically said "skill issue" to the players. Since Reb has hopped on as CD, the changes and updates have been amazing, so many QOL and tweaks. Incarnon's were Reb's idea and so were Archon shards most likely, since players were BEGGING for some form of endgame content other than Steel Path. Steve would have never given us anything past Steel Path for endgame if he was left in charge

[@superfnliminal]

@@starchild2299 I also think the story has become a lot more coherent and far better written and easier to understand. You can see this in some of The New War even though that was one of Steve's last updates. But it seemed like Reb was taking over in the process of TNW.

Nsync? Y2K? tennocyte?... What r u talking about.. So confused how 1999 is related to lore

[@DragonSoul621]

@@jidhindharanm.p9351 Nsync was a boyband from the 90's and its a joke in reference to the boyband we see in 1999. Y2K was something that caused a lot of panic in the 90s because everyone thought that all computers would brick up due to a glitch in how computers displayed the year 2000 and they thought this would destroy all electronics and end the world. In the end nothing happened, and since warframe 1999 takes place on the last day of the year 1999 the joke was that the boy band we see in the gameplay somehow caused the glitch to actually happen. Tennocyte is the name of the virus that created the infested, its also a variant of the helminth, which is the strain used to create the warframes we pilot. As to how 1999 is tied to the lore, Eternalism is your answer.

As we see that didn't work and Albrecht as he said in the whispers quest wasn't even sure if he was himself anymore or if he himself was in fact the man in the wall. I think with the man in the wall/ the void and all the time/space fuckery that comes with it going back to 1999 it somehow infected the world there and fused the 2 timelines. Last part is just speculation on my part, most likely accurate tho.. But it ties into the lore by Entrati traveling to 1999 to escape and stop the man in the wall, which obviously didn't work.

I absolutely think so. Mysterious infection called Technocyte is infesting a small eastern-European country in the near past, the local military has gone nuts trying to burn it out with a dangerous chemical called Enveron or smth (the two sound EXTREMELY similar in both games), and you're a brooding tacticool ninja with super powers. The infested is even transmitting through waves of red signals. This IS dark sector or I'm the president.
