It was set in the future but that was no pew pew lasers to speak of. I hate futuristic games in fact I hate games with lasers, spaceships, alien, mutants, games set in space. I love ww2 games and modern period.
The titan mode while buggy was very enjoyable for me. It had objectives, it had tactics. And the rush you got when you beaten the two long lane corridors with nade spamers and LMG's (basically support heaven). A lot of people might of found it slower paced comaped to normal conquest due to the initial capture/protect the silo.
When the shields dropped are you going to attack or defend as the enemy team will be thinking the same strat when your titan shields dropped.
Will you your team board the titan and try to take out the core or will you hold onto missile silos and take it out that way?
Which silos do you want the titan over to give fastest response times to hold/capture.
IIRC I didn't set foot on a conquest maps until like over 400+ hours of titan. I didn;t know how to play stuff like Camp G or the other maps as I only ever played titan. In fact most of my then guildmates if they wanted to talk to me had to come on titan as I would not leave it in case I lost my spot on the server. I use to play from mid day till 6am in the morning, I breathed it, I dreamt about it I loved it.
I would never pay 50-60 quid for a reskinned game but if it was 2142 reskinned I would make an exception. I spent over 2000+ hours on the game. In the last 10 years onlytwo other games have occupied me as much 2142 and they are company of heroes and league of legends.
