So I tried to write up some backstory to Warframe to make up for the complete lack of explanation for anything big.
[QUOTE]It is often wondered how the current state of events came to be. Under the current circumstances, this is an understandably hard question to answer. No-one knows what happened all those eons ago and no records were ever found until very recently when a Warframe recovery team made a truly enlightening discovery. Inside a decrepit void tower lay the knowledge of the Orokin, from birth until fall.
Though it is unknown how long it has been, humanity did indeed reach the stars long ago. In an event that is widely believed to have occurred at the dawn of the evolved era, an ancient branch of humanity launched somewhere between twenty and twenty-five colony vessels towards nearby star systems.
For the next several generations, this fleet would seed the far-off stars with ancient humans, who would then, in turn, go on to form a whole new empire of man. Scholars have since deduced that by this point, humanity had made peace with itself, relegating its warriors to a code of honour and efficiency; the Way of the Tenno. Eventually, this code would flood into normal society, culminating in a society free of anarchy, fallibility and negativity. From this point on, it is widely assumed that the Orokin Empire came to be.
The Orokin would then grow to become incredibly technologically advanced. Through their technology, they created a society built for those who would respect their ways and run by those who would not. But most importantly, they enforced it all with the culmination of centuries of research and perfection; the Warframe. Those who used them followed the Way of the Tenno so closely that they took the name as their own. And so, the warriors of the Orokin, The Tenno, were born.
But this blindingly golden age would not last forever. After innumerable years of peace, the workers grew tired of their unending service as slaves. In time, they would lash out, breaking down the society they were forced to maintain. The upper-class would eventually respond, splintering the Orokin into those who would remain loyal to the Orokin and those who “woke up from their forced slumber”: the Sentients. Caught in the crossfire were the Tenno, who were forced by their code to protect the Orokin and end the war.
All three sides fought for eons. Whole worlds claimed allegiance to either the loyalists or the sentients. The war would continue and worlds would fall until all that was left was Sol itself. It was here that the Tenno made one last push to strike the armies of the Orokin and end the war for good. Once the loyalists and the sentients landed on Earth, the Tenno unleashed their final solution.
This solution was the Technocyte virus. A plague designed to subdue the unkempt and unhygienic armies trampling Earth. Originally, it was a tactical success, forcing whole battalions out of action. But as time went on, the Tenno began to lose control and the virus ran rampant across the system. Eventually the Tenno were forced to leave the armies of the loyalists and the sentients to their own devices in order to combat their new self-created apocalypse. The Tenno would proceed to build vast bastions around the solar system, designed to cryogenically store thousands of innocents in the event that the Tenno failed to stem their creation.
From this point, the Orokin records stopped, but Scholars assume that the Technocyte virus forced the war to a close, at the expense of the Tenno, who lost so many of their number combating the virus that they were forced to cryo themselves instead of citizens to preserve what was left.
Meanwhile, neither the loyalists nor the sentients trusted each other, and even though they now needed to work together to fight extinction itself, both sides still put great effort into building new armies and new weapons.
The sentients, unable to source the manpower to raise a decent military, turned to cloning and began redefining the term “one man army”. Concurrently, the loyalists turned to robotics, birthing a fierce new generation of military androids.
Now, generations on, the loyalists and the sentients have changed and reformed. Over time, the sentients focused every waking moment into rebuilding an army billions-strong. They no longer had time to advance or to better themselves. And so they began to devolve. They now call themselves the Grineer, an autocratic empire hell-bent on ruling the solar system.
In contrast, the loyalists began to clamber at their old selves, taking Orokin artifacts and hastily rebuilding the old society. They would do whatever it took to reunite the Orokin, even if that meant trading with the Grineer. Soon they forgot their goals and regressed to trading purely for wealth. These merchants would become the Corpus.
Few still remember their ties to the Orokin, instead regarding them as a mystical past to be exploited. But not everyone thinks this way. An entity known only as the Lotus has begun to exploit the rekindling flames of war. Through a long-lost bastion on Mercury, the Lotus uncovered a cache of Tenno in cryostasis. Ever since then, the reawakened Tenno have been fighting for the very same values they fought for eons ago; the protection and betterment of humanity.[/QUOTE]
Apologies for the minor page stretch though.

Only a handful appear, and only once in a while.
And I beat them pretty fast.

Ok, so the upcoming clan size limit is actually kind of confusing, but I don't think they'll make it so we have to have the proper clan halls already built or members will be kicked, I think it simply has to do with reaching the next tier of clan size. Since we have more than 300 member already, we're a moon clan (the biggest tier) and we'll probably only have to build the clan halls to actually recruit more people, so I actually suggest against kicking anyone right now. We should refrain from taking any harsh actions at the moment, I'm sure that DE will give us the tools to deal the the problem soon enough.

It's to give new players a chance of joining the clan, because if we're over 300 members we have to build all the halls before we can invite people again

We'll have to build all the halls even if we're under 300 members.

We should really settle the fuck down and wait for more info, though.
So far this update has been grand. I had two Tier II void keys that some friends and I decided to use. The second one was fucking gold. We got the new parkour room, and a Forma. The first one netted us a Forma BP.
So far everything has gone better than expected.

Still doesn't explain what the infested or the lotus actually is.

Vauban Systems on Mars alert right now!

I tried to leave the Lotus about as ambiguous as she is right now (figured it would ruin her character in a similar way to explaining G-man), but I completely forgot about the infested, so I went back and added some stuff about them.
Paragraphs keep fucking up and adding an extra line though. Weird.
Is it just me, or is the new shotgun just not very good?
[QUOTE=SamPerson123;41453529]Is it just me, or is the new shotgun just not very good?[/QUOTE]
Ofcourse it blows, I mean compare it to HEK.
RockTurkey is also active.
And, remember that helmet that I had so much trouble with?

Go fuck yourself Raptor.
Isn't it sentience, not sentients? I might have misheard. I just assumed it was a form of artificial intelligence or something.
Also, barely got the last vauban part. Waiting game, woo.

That's a new room, so I've been in it maybe once. See if anyone will join in clan chat.
Oh my god, infested impedance is so broken right now.
I put it on, unupgraded, and I have enough time to type this in the middle of a wave.
I think they might have lowered their speed to 5% instead of by 5%.

Wallrun, jump and slide.
Squeeze your rhino-butt through that hole, no innuendo intended.

Stuff freeze and stun mods on your sentinel's weapon for maximum enjoyment.

Go back to the platform you came into the room on, it's where that hollow square is in the top left of your mini map. If you go back through the hallway, watch towards that hollow square and you should find a ramp leading up. It took my team ten minutes to find it, only because I used some tricky vortex-ing to get up, then found the proper way down.
I don't think they fixed the drop rate, I just finished a nightmare defense mission and got 20 neurodes and 20 Neural sensors.
eXperion17 is still active
[QUOTE=Zero_;41453691]How I am supposed to pass this?[/QUOTE]
There's a set of stairs (ramps) to the left once you enter that type of room at the bottom.
Lexi8745 still active.
I found 6 Neurodes in a row on Xini. Sobek is mine.
[QUOTE=Zero_;41453691]How I am supposed to pass this?[/QUOTE]
I went up that by chaining walljumps
So Stalker finally fucking dropped something. Too bad it was Dread which was what I killed the fucker with. At least I know he's coming after me more frequently without having to kill a boss every time he spawns, and can actually drop something.
