Warframe – The New War | All Hotfixes December 2021

Introduction

Introducing the highly anticipated new quest, "The New War," where players will face a full-scale invasion by old enemies Ballas, Erra, and the advancing Sentients. Will the factions unite or crumble under the pressure? To participate in this epic battle, players must complete the prerequisite "Prelude to War" and own a Necramech and Railjack. Be prepared for several hours of gameplay, as normal Warframe activities will be temporarily suspended during the quest. Don't forget to fine-tune your loadouts, including your Fashion Frame, and crank up the audio for an immersive experience. Plus, enjoy the updated Operator voices and take advantage of the new accessibility setting, 'Hold Button for Struggle Action.' For the best visual experience, PC players can set their Graphics Mode to Enhanced, while Playstation 5 and XBOX Series X players already have this setting. Please note that the quest cannot be replayed in this update, but stay tuned for potential additions in 2022. And keep an eye out for five new weapons and booster top-ups after completing "The New War." Get ready, Tenno, the fate of the Origin System is in your hands!

NEW QUEST - THE NEW WAR

We are seasons, all of us.

Growing in the light, fading in the dark.

At once the same, yet… ever changed.

Prepare yourself, Tenno. The New War is here and no one is safe. Old enemies have returned to the Origin System… will the factions unite against Ballas, Erra, and the advancing Sentients, or will they buckle under the weight of a full-scale invasion?

Players can prepare for The New War quest in the following ways:

Prerequisites

• Have “Prelude to War” complete

  • We have renamed the former “The New War’ Codex section to “Prelude to War”, players must have this complete to participate in The New War Quest.

• Own a Necramech

  • Necramechs can be earned by playing Deimos content or bought in the Market for Platinum.

• Own a Railjack

  • A Railjack can be earned by completing the Rising Tide quest or bought in the Market for Platinum.

The New War will take several hours to complete and will prevent normal Warframe activities from taking place for the duration of the quest. Plan accordingly!

Access to your loadouts will be limited. We encourage you to not only prep your Warframe, Necramech, Operator and Railjack Loadouts but also your Fashion Frame. And as always: CRANK THAT AUDIO!!

You may notice your Operator sounds a bit different while playing The New War Quest. We hope you enjoy the updated Operator voices. Pre and Post-New War Operator voices will be the familiar ones you’re accustomed to.

Additionally, a new Accessibility setting has been added titled 'Hold Button for Struggle Action'. This allows you to choose either 'Hold' or 'Tap' when confronted with a struggle context action, where typically mashing of a button would be requested. We recommend that you put this setting to your preference before initiating The New War Quest to ensure you have the best experience. Players can turn this on in the Controls options menu at any time in the quest, just above the Archwing section.

A significant amount of effort has gone into leveraging new graphics technologies for the levels seen in The New War. For PC players we recommend that you set your Graphics Mode to Enhanced for the full experience, if your computer can handle it! (Display tab under Options). The Playstation 5 and XBOX Series X already use this setting.

***You cannot Replay The New War Quest once it has been completed in this Update. It is a potential 2022 addition. Take your time and we hope you enjoy it!

NOTE: There are 5 New Weapons Available after The New War. We will not be denoting them here for spoilers, but seek them out once you’ve done the Quest! Additionally, some Booster top ups occur at the end of The New War.

NEW WARFRAME - CALIBAN

This is Caliban, the survivor, the adaptor, and heir to the twin kingdoms of biological and Sentient life. Free him from the aberrant path he was consigned to by his creator: Erra.

*Caliban's base Blueprint can be found in the Market with his Component Blueprints acquired via new Bounty missions unlocked after the completion of the New War Quest. Caliban’s Prex Card can also be found after completion of The New War Quest at a new location.

(PASSIVE) ADAPTIVE ARMOR

Allies within Affinity range gain up to 50% resistance to the types of damage they are currently taking.

• Note that this does not stack additively with the Adaptation mod

RAZOR GYRE

Become a spinning vortex of death. Hold the Attack button (left mouse default) to accelerate the maelstrom, increasing damage or target an enemy by tapping the Attack button (left mouse default) to dash toward them. Hitting enemies inflicted with Sentient Wrath creates a destructive blast.

SENTIENT WRATH

Smash the ground sending out a radial wave of destruction. Those not killed by the initial blast are helplessly lifted into the air, where they take amplified damage for a short time.

*Sentient Wrath is Caliban’s Helminth Subsume ability.

LETHAL PROGENY

Call on Caliban's Sentient aspect to produce up to three Conculyst comrades to fight by his side, and repair his shields.

FUSION STRIKE 

Converge three streams of raw energy upon a single point, causing a massive reactive blast. The fallout from the blast will strip the armor and shields from all enemies that touch it.

**Don’t miss Caliban’s Noble & Agile Animations! Featuring our first male-presenting Warframe with a floating animation!

VENATO

Caliban’s signature scythe, forged from a limb wrenched off a fallen Eidolon centuries ago. 50% increased Melee Combo Counter Chance when wielded by Caliban.

NEUROVYRE SYANDANA

A Sentient spinal symbiote that functions as Caliban’s signature Syandana.

SPORAVYRE SUGATRA

A docile Sentient entity that can be used as a weapon decoration.

CALIBAN CRANION HELMET

A fearsome alternative helmet to give Caliban a look he has not worn since the Old War.

NEW PLAYER / EARLY PLAYER EXPERIENCE CHANGES:

GENERAL CHANGES:

• We’ve changed the “SKIP CINEMATIC” confirmation when playing Quests to a “HOLD TO CONFIRM” instead of clicking OK. This is aimed to save players (like myself) who accidentally skip cinematics from button mashing, which could heavily hinder the Quest storyline experience.

  • This change does not affect regular gameplay cinematic skipping (mission fly-in / drop-down, etc).

• Companions will now receive 100% of the Affinity from kills you make. This matches shared Affinity functionality (you receive 100%, Companion receives 100%).

• Moved the Ghoul Bounty Aya drop to the Final phase as opposed to being in a majority of the Phases.

• Updated the Operator Voice icons to better reflect their titles.

• You may have already noticed this upon login, but emails displayed on the Login screen will now always be censored, regardless of having Creator Mode enabled or not. Your email will display only the first and last two letters before the domain, with the letters in between censored as asterisks. Additionally, we have updated the login email lock icon hover text to read ‘Unlock and clear Email’ to clarify its function.

  • Creator Mode still censors your email to be all asterisk.

  • The email domain is not censored by default, so if you wish to hide your entire email, please use the Creator Mode toggle in your Gameplay settings.

• Moved the K-Drive Race objective markers down closer to the actual K-Drive instead of floating many metres above.

• Increased back away distance for Grineer Lancers finding cover, so that they can shoot for longer.

• Enemies are now more likely to throw grenades at a target in cover.

• Removed Tenet Livia, Primary Kitgun beam-based weapons, Cadus, and Volnus Prime from the Conclave.

  • These new weapons slipped into the Conclave without a proper balance pass.

• Set max instances on Mirage’s Eclipse loops so they don't multiply out of control when Hall of Mirrors is used.

• Adjusted the Grineer Rampart context action offset to prevent clipping with the mesh.

• AI cover positions have been tweaked to be more consistent.

• Brachiolysts will now take damage when disarmed instead of equipping electroprods.

• Decals on Harrow’s Condemn now uses Deferred Rendering for better performance.

• Made slight adjustments to the Spritsail Prime Chest Plate when equipped on Nidus.

• Rescue Targets are now far more unlikely to go after an AFK player over an active player.

• Juno Geminex Moas' projectiles' AOE damage now respects line-of-sight and won't deal damage through cover.

• Changed the Dojo Orokin Lab description to "Void focused research" to remove outdated Solar Rails indication.

• The Quest Codex section is now ordered based roughly on intended order of progression! The Quests you have yet to complete will remain at the top of the list for ease of access.

• Shading improvements have been made to older hair materials to add more depth!

    • Fixed ability to carry Data Masses and your Primary weapon at the same time - you should switch to your Secondary as intended now. 

• Fixed a crash that could occur when mission loading goes bad in Open Worlds.

• Fixed inability to complete the Mastery Rank 24 Test if you had a certain post-New War thing equipped.

• Fixed some black screens occurring during The New War Quest.

• Fixed inability to cycle the Profit Taker's current Shield vulnerability with the Sirocco.

• Fixed Harrow Prime not giving weapon passive bonus (additional shot in the magazine) to the Knell/Knell Prime.

• Fixed Knell Prime not displaying correctly when Dual Wielding.

• Fixed a New War Captura Scene doing unintentional damage to the Operator.

• Fixed a “table” clipping issue when skipping a cinematic in The New War Quest.

• Fixed for missing atmospheric FX in the Orb Vallis during The New War Quest.

• Fixed a floating texture in the post-New War Plains.

• Fixed a script error when using a Specter.
