Patch 0.6 Upgrading Your Frame and Crafting


I've seen this question come up a lot in zone chat, and also on the forum. I think it mostly stems from how different the new system is compared to the old tech tree, so I'll break it down for you.

FireFall: Introduction

A few months ago Firefall wasn't even a blip on my radar. I had somehow ended up on their mailing list, and each new email that came in was deleted by the time I got to the word MMO. In the past year I'd gone through 3 or 4 disappointing MMOs, and I wasn't ready to get bit by another generic "Fight some dragons while you level up and become the ultimate hero!" game. I was so jaded that I somehow completely missed the part where Firefall is set in the future on Earth, is an FPS/TPS, and doesn't have any levels.

Firefall markets itself as "a sci-fi MMO shooter set in a future Earth." And it includes an impressive feature list:
  • A Vast Open World - Developed on a 1/10 scale replica of Earth, the game promises to be massive.
  • 100% Free-to-Play - Most importantly: "Firefall is Free-2-Play and never Pay-2-Win.
  • Tiers, Not Levels - There is no leveling.
  • Deep Crafting - Nearly every item in the game is crafted by the players.
  • Massive Open World PvP, eSports and Arenas, Dynamic World War, and more.
