Will Warframe 1999 be tied to your character? Or seperate.

Wondering if I would need to start playing to be allow to play the expansion or will it be open to new players?

You need to have Whisper In The Walls completed so it definitely requires you to play and progress. They could handle it the way they did Duviri but from a lore and difficulty perspective, giving new players the option to choose 1999 just doesn't sound good. And since 1999 will also serve as an introduction to Infested Liches, certainly not.

I mean... I can think of a way for it to work as an intro to newer players, but given how everything's breaking down plot-wise, it's likely far better as a post-Whispers quest.

In short Mateo, you'll have to progress through a good portion of the game to have it available when it releases this winter. The good news though is that you have time between now and then to get it done.
