If anything the Developers of Warframe know how to talk to their fan base.
I caught a developer sit down on YouTube and interesting enough they went over all the new changes coming to the game. Armor add ons, a giant freaking Dog like creature that will be your ally, enemies and Warframe designs being worked on submitted by their community, ....
and low and behold a ship for the players to sink time, money, and god knows how many in game resources.
Basically a flying dojo/UI meant to ground the game in lore and accessibility to new players.
A work in progress, but nevertheless Destiny might be having an influence across its genera.
Now whether you like Warframe or not, I was pretty impressed with the set up on how they engage their community compared to what Destiny has done so far.
They are showing new animations, environment, talking about how they are trying to support PS4 and PC players while their Community manager fields questions directly from their forums and twitter feeds to the guys in charge. And they answered some them using video of pre alpha builds and conceptual art.
Also they have regular sit downs with the community manager playing the game while fielding questions, playing with community, and handing out prizes. 1000 platinum and that's not something to sneer at since it's based on real money.
I gotta admit once I understood how mods worked and unlocking a Rhino this game has taken off for me. I just put a Forma on one of
my guns and now I tear through the higher spectrum enemies like lava going through butter.
I'm not telling you to play it. But dang I hope Deej and Bungie do something like this with Destiny when it launches, because that's really nice to see new content and developer participation with its community to such the degree that they do.

It sounds like they really listen to fans. Edit: Actually never mind, I forgot PC gets everything so much farther ahead of PS4
