Warframe coming to Nintendo Switch (port by Panic Button)
- Thread starter Chairmanchuck (另一个我)
- Start date
Holy shit that's awesome. I like that they are very interested in strong links between PC and switch. Being able to play on PC at home then go away and carry on with Switch would be incredible!
The bad news is that it'll never be 60fps on switch. The good news is that panic button seems confident enough to put a game on switch that doesn't have much overhead on the twin consoles.
Wolfenstein was already more or less in that case when compared to the xbox version which if I recall runs often in the 50-ish fps.
Correct, it runs on the Evolution Engine.
If cross progression actually makes it in, that would be utterly insane. Switch would also have some really solid motion control aiming possibilities. Excited to see the progress this might make.
Just announced at Tennocon.
So that's the game they were talking about announcing this month..
Nice! I was thinking only a few days ago how cool it would be if it came with Switch.
Shame I won't be able to play co-op with my best mate though, as he plays on PS4.

Can't talk about roblox cause I never played it, but I understand the appeal, but Netflix and YouTube would be great.
I will finally play this properly using my out home time.
I see no benefit to buying Panic Button. They'll make Switch ports regardless of whether Nintendo owns them and if Nintendo had a first party port studio then what precedent would that set for encouraging third parties to port their games to Switch? Would many of them expect Nintendo (Panic Button) to do it?
These guys are in a great position right now and don't need to be bought.

I don't really have an interest in these kinds of online only games (art style is a bit too teenage angsty as well imo), but it's really cool that these kinds of games are suddenly coming to a Nintendo system all the same. N64 was a long time ago.

The more I rewatch this trailer the more easier it is to tell what is pre-rendered footage, and where the gameplay footage takes over... there is a noticeable drop in frame-rate and details compared tot he more detailed pre-rendered footage which is still in a lower resolution... in fact the whole trailer is in 720p, and not even 60fps... just 720p... so you know... this game is gonna struggle.
I'll still check it out cuz it's F2P... but hopefully the game still has time to be further optimized and is not releasing in say... a month or whatever

With gyro controls I would definitely give it a try. Panic Button seems to get that gyro is important on the switch, so I'm hopeful.
Normally I would be interested in this coming Switch. But my Switch has absolutely dreadful WiFi connectivity in handheld mode, so always online games are pretty much a no go.
Nice, will try it when it comes out. Was interested with the MMO like world patch.
Aye lol, a new Sony exclusive. Your Warframe account.
Jokes aside, cross progression would be awesome. Maybe even cross play with PC/X1?

Please don't share misinformation.
MHW is absolutely a PS4 exclusive in Asia, and not because nobody would buy it elsewhere. It's literally the only multiplat Capcom game not being on X1 in japan (even Okami is on there), and the PC version would sell well in the rest of Asia (there won't be a pc version sold in asia).
Well that's really promising!
Uhm no? lol
MHW for PC is coming to China.
"Please don't share misinformation"
That is weird, the required specs should really be updated then. The game seems to require a system stronger than one that is needed to run fallout New Vegas. They need to update that as I thought Steam is going to stop officially supporting XP and Vista.
Looks fun!
What engine is it running on?
I imagine it's 60 fps on PC/PS4 and we can expect 30 fps with reduced visuals on Switch?
Hoping the resolution is decent in portable mode.

Evolution Engine. On PC there is no FPS cap.
afaik it's 100% made by Digital Extremes devs.
Just announced at Tennocon.
Hey OP, please update with this news bit:
In the trailer.
I watched this a few months ago when DE hinted at looking into a Switch version and that sold me on it.
there's also this, which is even more recent:

The old laptop is an i5 with an 840m gpu. I can't lock it to 30fps 720p.
It's not 60FPS on PS4, more like fluctuated framerate at best, low 20 at worse. Having played that on PC/PS4, the engine is not really well optimized, so don't expect miracles on Switch.
Hmmm that's concerning.
And yet they still decided it was worth it to port to Switch.
I mean ftp lives or dies based on its gameplay.
The Chinese localizations version is still a PS4 exclusive. That in of itself makes the game a de facto exclusive.
I wonder how the open world parts of the game will run on Switch.
Impressive to see them porting this though and it makes sense to me too! If they get crossplay working between PC and Switch, I might finally try this out.
From the streams I've watched, I don't think it's necessarily a game for me though. In comparison to the awesome conference demos these last few years, the actual game looks a lot more visually cluttered to me in moment to moment gameplay.

Interesting, but somewhat disappointing to hear that PS4 version is having performance issues. On PC it runs like smooth butter on high end settings, but then I run it on i5 6600K @ 4,2 and 980Ti.
There is A LOT going on in screen when doing group play as everyone is using their weapons (many have effects to them) and warframe abilities. Especially in mission types where you defend single point and all frames operate on top of each other. You learn to filter it and effect caused noise bothers less and less as you play more, but visually game is busy and cluttery during group combat for sure.
Even on PC I noticed quickly it's a game you have to bruteforce to have good framerate. Before I stopped, there was often problems on that front after each patches. Unfortunately I don't think the optimization of their engine is a priority.
No lmao
MHW will be localized and launched on WePlay, Tencent own platform for PC games in China.
Are you sure? I don't know that.
Are you from China?
Every ads I saw here in Taiwan says that the Chinese translation is PS4 exclusive.
The game requirments were leaked through WeGame platform on China
