Mise à jour 18.5 :

 

Nouvelle Warframe: Inaros

Inaros –  Venu des sables, Inaros commande l’effrayante puissance du désert.

• DESICCATION explose les ennemis avec une vague de sable maudit, qui les aveugle et leur fait des dégâts tout en leur volant leur vitalité.
• DEVOUR  marque votre cible, la piégant dans des sables mouvants. Charger ce sort les rapprochera d’Inaros pour être dévorés. Inaros ou ses alliés peuvent activer la cible, ce qui transférera un pourcentage de sa vie et de ses boucliers.Si la cible meurt par les mains d’Inaros une ombre de sable apparaîtra pour l’assister.
• SANDSTORM transforme Inaros en une spirale tourbillonnante de sable, rassemblant les objets au sol proches et jetant les ennemis au loin. Les ennemis précédemment marqués par le deuxième sort seront drainés de leur boucliers  et de leur santé.
• SCARAB SWARM est un sort chargé, qui convertit votre vie en armure de scarabée renforcée. Déchargez le pour envoyer un nuage d’insectes vers vos ennemis. Les survivants auront leur vie drainée et octroyée aux alliés dans la zone d’effet.

Lighting Improvements

Firstly, this is a sweeping change across the entire game! Please be conscious that some areas may appear overly or underlit. We will work to fix up any rough looking spots – feel free to send screenshots are way in bug threads throughout the appropriate subforums.

With Inaros, the sands of old have been swept away from U18 Warframe leaving behind a newer, more vibrant U18.5 Warframe. In many respects, 18.5 is a remastered, more HD version of Warframe with months of technical graphical improvements and artistic relighting of many parts of the game (and more to come in subsequent updates). On top of these changes are across the board rendering performance improvements we hope you’ll enjoy, keep in mind that your particular hardware may benefit more and benefit less depending on your GPU, resolution and preferred graphics settings.

• Lighting textures have been reengineered to reduce square compression artifacts and ugly color banding. You may have seen me point this out on past Devstreams.
• All PBR materials have been recompressed with a more accurate format, new and subtle details are visible on your PBR’d Warframes, gear and in the environment.
• Reflection Probes have been built through many areas of the game, grounding PBR materials with more accurate lighting.
• Character and weapon lighting includes more accurate ‘dual specular’ lighting which means metallic surfaces are more realistic and fancy looking.
• HDR rendering has been switched to a compact 32bit format which has improved HDR rendering performance for a wide range of GPUs.
• Tonemapping has been adjusted to use more of the range of lighting content in the game, images have more detail, particularly richer in the darks.
• Motion Blur and Depth of Field have been re-engineered to run faster and look better, fast moving and defocused objects no longer appear ‘cut out’ on their silhouettes.
• Draw order optimizations have been applied to every object in the game, which improves overall performance, particularly in worst-case scenarios.
• Atmospheric fog effects are now rendering in a separate lighting pass, allowing richer particle effects at distance without being ‘erased’ by atmosphere.
• Particle lighting has been improved to more accurately represent the local lighting environment.
• Wind force modelling on many particle systems increase realism as various environmental particles now respond to explosive forces and Warframe powers – you’ve also probably seen us showcase this in our most recent Devstream.
• Bloom system has been softened and made more seated in the scene. The burnt-out look is replaced with a more subtle and gentle sci-fi glow.
• Physics collision, performance and stability have all been improved, as a long-awaited upgrade of Warframe PhysX libraries has been completed.

Interception AI Improvements

Enemies in Interception Missions have been overhauled to help improve the flow of combat over the course of the Mission.  These improvements include:

• Superior objective finding and hacking agent selection.
• Better player tracking and more intuitive movement to Squad location.
• Enemies unable to hack (such as MOAs) will no longer move to engage hacking consoles.
