What do you think the Update will bring?

[Kiribandit]

I swear, warframe is just based off of the last anime the devs watched

[rosiebun]

the 5 leaf flower is a sakura or cherry blossom which is a japanese flower that represents etherealness which is the opposite of Eternalism. Koumei in japanese means Light or Bright, I think the Five fates may be referring to the Five Tenno Schools so I wonder if its an update having to do with the operator/drifter. Maybe we'll be getting some kind of new mechanic or mission for our operators.

[Chrisyn]

on the Speculation side of what 5 fates.. could mean.
I believe some1 on the WF-Discord said that somewhere.
it being related to the 5 Schools we have in game -> Zenurik, Madurai, Unairu etc.

[kenkaneki]

Looks like Rebecca played Ghost of Tsushima

[PL]

I think the "five fates" could be a reference to Miyamoto Musashi's "The Book of Five Rings", which is a text about combat. Remember that in Duviri, the Drifter is carrying two swords, something that Musashi advocates in the book.

[Dusk-meme]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that aforementioned spider frame.
Yeah, it might be coming up in the next update.

Might be related to the 5 focus schools..

Zhuge Liang, the legendary chinese strategist from the 3 kingdoms period, had the courtesy name 孔明 when read in Chinese it is Kong Ming, read in Japanese, it's KouMei. With the many warframes of Chinese inspiration like wukong, nezha maybe this update will be heavily referencing the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, which is surprisingly popular in Japan too, so maybe a combination?

[phobos]

The colour scheme & look of the logo & teaser image kinda reminds me of old samurai films, like The Seven Samurai and others like it. I'd love a wandering ronin appearing on the Plains for us to encounter, and maybe even duel with

[KOTHASgaming]

Hey man, just wanted to say your guides have been incredibly helpful to me as I've made my return to Warframe after a 7 year hiatus. I've been making Destiny 2 content for a couple years, but with the state it's in I've needed a new game to satisfy the grind and hopefully make content for. I've been consuming your content daily and have felt so much more comfortable getting back into this awesome game! Thank you for these videos dude.

[anarchyinc]

I just hope this update brings a big chunk of content, im at the point where ive basically ran out of shit to do...and that sucks since i love this game.

[iMonkeyLegend]

Love the content, maybe I can persuade you to keep pumping it out ;)
Also, Nezha Prime build when?

Just a little tip: if it's Japanese, "Koumei" would be pronounced "koh-mei", as the "ou" is a way of simply lengthening the long "o" sound in Japanese. This can be observed in Japanese words such as "Tokyo, " "kinou" (tomorrow), and "budou" (grape).

From the looks of Cyte-09 he looks to be more of a Marksman type of frame so that rifle hes holding is either a new weapon or a semi auto exalted weapon. My guess is you build up the incarnon meter with hits/kills or headshots then unleash a powerful slug like he did in the 1999 showcase

[JayTheOtt]

I could be grasping at threads here (pun intended), but the name "The Five Fates" immediately drew my mind to Greek mythology with the Three Fates, Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos who guide the fates of mortals. The first bringing them into life by spinning their thread, the second braiding the thread to fill out their life, and the final snipping the thread to end their life.

It could be a red hereing tho similar to the last update (which also used Greek Mythos in it's naming). In Greek Mythos, there was a race known as the Lotus-Eaters. They would eat the lotus and start to forget everything, their family, their home, thier loved ones, seeking only to continue spending their days with their fellow lotus-eaters. The quest however (at least in my interpretation) was similar only in name.

[johnpayne]

Five Fates = Five Rings? As in the lessons of Miyamoto Mushashi? If so, they would be the books of earth, water, , fire, wind, and ... Void. Moreover, the last book deals with consciousness.
So strap in folks! DE is about to takes us on a ride that will confuse us even more about kuva, transference, and the deal.

[geoffreyganoe]

They talked about that Cyte-09's weapon at Tennocon in the Art of Warframe presentation and called it a machine gun. From the description as a tactical expert I'd expect offensive and defensive buffs as a weapons platform, maybe Blast element?

[richardkholin]

KouMei is actually originates from Chinese > KongMing aka Zhuge Liang, So i think it might have the mixture between chinese and japanese design

[hartantoanggoro]

Koumei is the japanese of Zhuge Liang and I hope we got a strategist theme frame.
