Titanfall (Respawn Entertainment's new IP)

I've obviously been living in a box for the past 2 years, I've managed to completely avoid all the hype / information / everything about this game.

Just seen a couple of videos and it looks pretty damn decent, much like one hit wonder Natalie Imbruglia I'm torn - to purchase or not to purchase?!

If you get the TF + all dlc for £28 from Mexico it is worth it.
 
It's true the balancing needs to be worked better. Was on a game there with a Gen 2 and a Gen 3 pilot on the opposing side and I was the only Pilot out of the teens. We actually did OK and won a few rounds though.

Multi lock on missiles are good, if you get a hit with them all then it can do some serious damage. Along with the Plasma cannon I tend to skirt around the edges of the maps in my Stryder with a fully charged plasma cannon. If you're going 'toe to toe' with anyone the Stryder isn't the one to use!

I think that would just make it more random and chaotic. The bots add a feeling of a busy battleground without the spam.

Say there were 30 players on a server? Can you imagine having 15 Titans up at the same time? :P
 
One thing that has annoyed me so far is the lobby waiting time. Despite the waiting time, I've had several games that haven't started with an even amount of players lol :| What's the point in making us all wait 2 minutes if the games don't even start evenly.

Stryders is great for toe to toe only problem is if there any pilots around or other titans.
I like to use Quadrockets with rapid fire mod and then just the basic missile tech just have to remember to dash when the other titan fires.

Only problems I seen to run in to is titans with grenade launchers there AOE area is just to big I think and a bit OP I think the whole game needs a bit of balancing to do but then that's normally the case for any game that's new.

I was using an Atlas with rail gun last night and it does a lot of damage. I just find some open ground or stay out of the main battles and shoot in.This thing will hit anything at any range as long as you have line of sight. I imagine a Stryder using the rail gun would be epic but I only have the Atlas unlocked at the moment. Only problem with the rail is it has no AOE so any pilots or minions have to be a direct hit to do any damage or kill. I am thinking of using the rail + big punch combo if possible. I also love how you can punch mid air pilots too :p

One change I would like to see is inheritance. I think wall running pilots should inherit the speed of the wall run + jump after they land on the floor and continue running. Feels like it really breaks the fluid movement potential for the brakes to be jammed on after a combo wall run and jump.

I have to work today but should hopefully be online this afternoon. Can the OP edit original post with everyone's Origin ID? Or shall we just create one as a reply and keep adding to it? Would be cool to play with some of you guys. :)
 
thing is doesn't matter if people have prestiged its about team work.

i use rail gun on my titan and i know if i do well in my titan i can take on upto 4 at a time and live. many people don't use shield correctly or use at all . its vital.

i have the ogre knockout punch type perk on and rail gun ordinance i have the last missile perk.

as to pilot weapons the default one is still the best.
 
I would describe this game as "satisfying".

The drop never gets old at the start of games, the music, presentation, the animations of the Titans and when you get into them.

This is a proper made game.

Everything is so so simple to do, but in combination it's pretty indepth. How it should be.

The auto-noob pistol I thought would break the balance of the gameplay, but the shorter distance and lock on times make it fair game.

You know you have a quality game on your hands when you can have an auto lock pistol work fairly.

Well thought out.

Now they just need to patch out a few technical issues, but I figure they are just as much as nvidia problem at this stage.

36 page thread now, ouch!

I love the game but the match making system really seems like an afterthought. I have added a lot of people from this thread but how do we get in game together. It would be much better than playing with randoms.

I didnt like having AI at first, but they do really add to the gameplay I feel, both in atmosphere and confusion.

And pilots hide in them too! I have been killed a few times by a pilot running with the AI units for cover - I noticed too late and got spanked :p

I am sure if there is enough demand there may be additional game modes added.

Regarding 6v6 I think this might be due to XB1 hardware limitations, and also server hardware limitations. I can't see the 6v6 format really changing unless they allow for user run dedicated servers. The entire game has been designed around 6v6 play, and to be fair to Respawn I think the maps are all well balanced for that number of players. If you opened more player slots I think things would get a little excessive.

Lets face it, at present you can potentially have 12 titans in the field at once, although realistically it is more like 8 at a time. I still think that is enough. Whilst the battles are not as epic as playing Planetside 2, I think they have a really good balanced feel to them, and the chaos means no matter how good you are, you are going to die because you cant be watching and assessing 360 degrees at once. Theres always some sneaky player around to drop on your head with kick melee or pick you off with a DMR when you have no idea they are there :p
 
OK if people are interested I will use this post as an origin gamer handle post. Then if the OP comes in, they can add it to the original post on page 1. If you want your Origin ID adding to this post so we can play together, just put a single post below with your origin handle. This post might fall on its face, but I will give it a go :p lol

So folks... when you get in a Titan and you are facing down two titans, its pretty much game over isn't it?
You cant surely beat two titans...

Really all depends on skill level, their loadout, your loadout and what health / shield you all have left.

I have taken down 2 titans in a 2v1 situation. If they were better players, though, I dont think I would have had a chance.

Then you have to consider all of the other stuff going on. Are any friendly pilots or AI also attacking the Titans that you are fighting with?

I have come out of 2v1 and even 3v1 fights before now because of help by other pilots and AI.
