I play it off-and-on. I rather like their F2P model, given it's not terribly restrictive and money-grabbing. I like the gameplay variety, and the fact you can do everything from shooter gunplay to acrobatic action melee. It's hard to think of another online game where I can put headshots into enemies at extreme range, then when my weapon runs dry, break into a wallrun to close the distance, and come off the wall leaping into a sword slash of awesome.
I find there's nice variety in the warframe abilities themselves as well. The basic combat is very engaging, which is what really matters.
This isn't to say the game is without issues - there really do need to be more maps, more mission variety...but that's not really something we can blame the devs for, given that this game is only about a year old. The concept art and design stuff dates back to Dark Sector, which was over a decade ago...but they only started development on this version of the game in 2012. So all we have, they've done in about a year plus. That's pretty massive, and it speaks well as to the game's future development.
