/tfg/ - Titanfall General

First for no PC

As someone who hasn't played Titanfall 1, why should I be excited for Titanfall 2? This game has only recently popped up on my radar, and I want to know more about it.

>>152233506
one day
its ok

>>152233630
First was good. Not much content. Second looks like more content. Wew.

>>152233630
Have you played Jet Set Radio Future?

It's like CoD with Jet Set Radio Future movement. And ugly mechs. Aspies were pissed off that it didn't have much to unlock, but my beef was that it was multiplayer only.

It was pretty fun for the two weeks I played it, but vs mode gets old quick.

>>152233630
Provided they don't fuck up the movement(it's already slower than before, we're all fucked), it was literally perfect, lots of going insane speeds across maps and maintaining it by bunnyhopping and just making yourself hard to hit. Titan combat is fun, but can seem a little messy before people know how to do it correctly.

>>152233809
I am intimately familiar with JSRF. Is Titanfall's movement really that free-flowing?

>>152234883
There's no grinding on rails, but you start to see every single wall as a billboard. And yes, it's pretty damn good.

>>152233630
CoD shooting + almost (not quite, but the closest any recent FPS has come) Quake-tier movement + wallrunning + giant robots

Here's a webm I made a while back.

>>152234883
>I am intimately familiar with JSRF. Is Titanfall's movement really that free-flowing?
Not him, but it was.
You could wallrun, double jump and bunny hop to traverse the environment. The maps themselves were made with this kind of movement in mind and offered plenty of surfaces that hellped with that.
Once you found the perfect routes and learned how to combine those movement mechanics, you were able to go really fast.

>>152235109
>>152235217
It's like watching Tribes.

>>152235251
Supposedly, Titanfall 2 is a tad bit slower, but as a tradeoff, you get a grappling hook (on a short cooldown) to assist with movement.

Just gonna dump webms

Apparently, there was an entire list of grievances people had with the first game that the devs directly listened to and addressed in Titanfall 2. What exactly was addressed?

>>152235548
Single player and stuff. We've sort of figured out you can't do a lot of what you could in TF1 movement wise. There's a lot more options, but there's diminishing returns and even slowdown. Literally everyone's been complaining, so hopefully they'll remove the slowdown. Stim is the only way to get around the movement penalties, so it's pretty much going to be an autopick unless they change things.

>>152235256
I just want to say that the game feels significantly slower now. somewhat the fov, but they made it so that if you try and do more then one movement trick in a row, the game forcibly slows you down.

Why won't the beta show up on my Ps4 Store

>>152236020
Someone mentioned it was under the actual game. Not too sure though because im not ps4

>>152236020
Download it off the PS website on your PC instead then just send it to the console. PS store is a piece of shit.
also; what time does the alpha go up? I heard 9AM PST.

gurren lagann mech skins in TF2?

okay this is extremely disappointing
the thing that for me was the most fun in tf1 is just completely removed
i loved to run around as pilot rodeoing titans left and right killing them
i didn't embark once
fuck this

>>152258104
Wait you can't rodeo anymore?

>>152258332
You can, but it does a set amount of damage and then you jump off
The system in the first game was much better

>>152258332
Doesn't seem that way.
Just time you climb on a titan, you remove a power core. The second time, you drop a grenade down the hole.

>>152258417
not only that but you can't even do damage the first time
you literally just remove the battery and jump off
the second time you can do a small amount of damage

>>152258505
The battery chunks them too im pretty sure

>>152258543
it does around 1/4 hull damage

>>152258543

also i don't really like the new bounty hunter mode

You don't gain and keep momentum the same way anymore. They only way to keep it is with stim. There's slowdown if you go past like 2 "advanced" movement options (bhopping, sliding) you no longer gain speed by just touching walls.

>trying out bounty hunter
What the fuck is this mode supposed to be? The games been dragging out for ages now and I still don't get what's happening. Half of the players have left, there's no clear objective and there doesn't seem to be an end in sight. I've managed to call in my titan TWICE, which is incredibly disproportionate to the amount of killing I did compared to how fast you got your Titan in TF1, ESPECIALLY with how much longer the game is, I was expecting it to be 6v6 titans as it got into the swing of things; instead it was "search this map that's five times too big for that one enemy that's also managed to get a titan and be pestered by enemy pilots along the way".


I'm kind of at a loss here guys.

>>152260009
Maps also feel a lot more open, not many places to go fast

Holy christ playing this game on console sucks
>constant slowdowns

>have to deal with a fucking controller

>>152261159
And it somehow manages to feel much slower than even BF or CoD when you're running across those big open spaces with nothing to jump against.

>>152261243
>have to deal with a fucking controller
This is seriously a big issue for me. I can't tell if the reason I can't keep my speed and momentum up is the game, or my inability to use a controller at a fast pace.

>>152261493

Oh hey we're back.
XBone player and TF1 PCuck here.

I can't be mad at it. Like I legitimately can't be mad at the game as it is.
It feels slow at first, but I'm also trying to get a lay of the land. I played TF1 so much that I knew maps like the back of my hand, which made going fast at sanic speeds a non-issue. Here, TF2 is thrusting me into a place I've never been, with new mechanics I'm not yet familiar with.

So I stick to what I know, which makes me slow. I'll try to clumsily wallrun around a building and get shot by some fucker with an assault rifle.
Then I used my grapple, swung around a corner, and landed on top of an enemy Titan with its battery already gone. Hello grenade, meet sweet Titan booty-hole.

I figured out where I could best chain wallruns, and before I knew it I was across the map. I shot three people on the way with the good ol' CAR. I saw a guy from behind and executed him(which took a bit longer than I'd like, but it looked fucking cool).

I didn't feel as fast as I used to, and I know this game is trying to deliberately slow me down with the FOV and slowdowns if I try to get fancy, but I know I can overcome these challenges and become the fast man I used to be, killing people in a Titan that SPEWS FUCKING FIRE.

That they aren't using the movement system to their advantage, moron. You can still go fast, you just have to smarter about it because you can't just chain wallruns across the map anymore.

So they exchanged the attrition mode with the bounty hount?

>>152276547
Amped Hardpoint seems to have problems on PS4, half the time it puts me in buggy matches that start at the Epilogue, nobody gets any point, we just get to run around for a minute before the next buggy game.
And no titan mode is boring after a while.

Utterly underwhelmed and devastated because I enjoyed the first so much.

Not keen on the new percent charge for the Titan
Somehow feels like there's less customisation for your pilot and weapons because they're either the same as last time or boring
Only 8v8 is for a game mode with no fucking Titans
Unless I'm wrong about this and was just too dense to get it, you can't set what weapons or abilities your Titan gets. If you don't like the weapon, tough shit.
Lack of AI in all the game modes to make the maps feel more lively and allow you to amass a small army of Spectres or Grunts
Feel like the HUD Shows too much now especially with the objective pop ups
Hook is underhwleming
They've actually made the Pilot less mobile
I better be able to get Jeeves back

Stuck at work for another 4 hours, can you guys tell me if all the pilot weapons are available on the beta, or do you have to unlock them?
Also it feels nice to have /tfg/ back.

>>152276753
>Unless I'm wrong about this and was just too dense to get it, you can't set what weapons or abilities your Titan gets. If you don't like the weapon, tough shit.

Each Titan is "unique". You can't change its weapons or OS voice and you have a very limited choice of ways to modify their abilities.

This "character" type trend needs to fucking stop. Black Cocks 3 did it, and it sucked. Now TitanFall is going to do it in the form of Mechs instead of pilots. When will this meme end?

Games were better when there weren't special snowflake abilities thrown in all the time. When everyone was just an average soldier. Fuck this gay Earth.

Apparently, that's only if an enemy pilot lands on you and yanks out your battery. If you want your shields back, you need to get a new battery, whether you find one yourself or someone else brings you one.

>>152289074
I actually like this new mechanic. Pilots can now properly support their ally Titans

why can't we choose our player models?

XB1 if that matters

REEEEE

How do i party up with friends on xbone?

>>152292835
A couple of us had the same issue earlier. It works if you do the Network invite, but it'll only keep the group together for one match

Wasn't it mentioned somewhere that in Titanfall 1, PC players and console players had vastly different playstyles? Console players preferred to hang back and snipe at range, while PC players were about maximum movement and speed. Since this Titanfall 2 test is console-only, people have to deal with the console playstyle.

After reading some opinions here and reddit i'm starting to get really scared about playing this beta.
I played like 200+ hours on TF1 and i feel like i'm gonna be extremely biased against 2 if all i'm reading is true.

>>152295419
Fortunately for me, I have no experience with TF1, so I'll be going into TF2 blind if I decide to get it on PC.

>>152293536
If that's the case then wouldn't it be better to do a PC test release as well, even with the excuses they put out? It seems like the info they would get from it would be necessary to actually develop the game properly.

Hell, if the changes are significant enough and the devs choose to heed them, they could even delay the game if they wanted to. This is another perk in itself, since it won't share the same release date as Battlefield 1. Apparently, that was a flaw of TF1 as well, launching at the wrong time.

>>152297475
I wonder how long it will be until they label these demos as concept art and design docs.

>>152297858
>Why did they have to change this game so fucking much?

They wanted those COD people back. I knew this shit would happen with the sequel when my brother watch me play TF1 and said it was too fast.

>>152298056
Fucking EA man

Those niggers already have Battlefield to fuck up immensely but this had serious potential and I doubt they will change this much before the game launches

>>152297858
It's actually making me want to go play TF1

I wonder if the PC community is still alive on there?

>>152305178
What reviews?

so this general stays dead then?
fair enough

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBDc5IisaWQ
Note how most of those kills are longshots.

I was pretty much just blaming the stuff I didn't like on the selection of maps, modes, and weapons available on the tech test, as well as playing with a controller instead of a mouse and keyboard, but I guess no one is actually liking this? I miss parkour-ing really fast with a shotgun flanking people, but this game is pretty much just camping on windows with assault rifles, just like COD. Is there any hope it will be different on release and/or the PC version?

>>152307865

Game's out in two months, it's not going to get changed. Fuck respawn.

>>152307865
The PC playstyle may be more movement oriented than the console playstyle. That said, Respawn is getting plenty of feedback as it is just from the first day of testing.

well fuck, this beta wasn't very good at all

I guess it's back to overwatch for another 6 months

>>152308197
honestly OW and TF1 is what i'm going with

>>152308149
If it's down to number tweaking and balancing, I don't see why they can't change it, either prior to release or soon after. However, if they see this as the direction they want to take the game, meaning it's probably fucked from the core, then there's no hope.

I'll wait and see how things work out on launch. I was already worried it would be DOA with BF1 and COD being released very close to it, but now I pretty much just lost all of the hope I had on it. I wish I didn't love the first game so much.

>>152308376
A lot of the map design just feels like it's made to intentionally break up any kind of parkour flow you have, and with wide open spaces at that.

>>152308492
I agree, which is one of the things that made me worried, but there's always the chance that the two maps they put into the test are terrible. If the one they're adding next week is similar, then I guess it's fucked.

>>152293536
Why on earth would they have different playstyles? The game itself determines the playstyle, not the platform. What a retarded thing to say.

>>152309691
You try flying across maps while using a stick to aim.

For how long has the fast and mecha games general been dead?

>>152309751
I haven't noticed an issue of people sticking to range on xbone, people seem to be moving around. Sure there were sniper cloak fags in the first game but I almost always saw their glint and went around for a neck snap

I feel like the campers that everyone complains about are on the PS4 version which is full of people who think the game is another Call of Duty because they have no experience with the first, and hopefully Respawn weeds them out as the game goes on

>>152309751
Yeah I've been doing exactly that since Max Payne, what's your point?

>>152233630
You should play Titanfall 1. It's dirt cheap now, and the three DLC map packs are free.

>>152310385
Yeah it was like 8 bucks a couple of months ago but I didn't buy it, I believe they'll give it for free sometime soon.

What the fuck happened to Blisk?

>>152310816

Again, the platform does not determine the playstyle. If people are camping, it's because of the map design.

So is there a reason why my titan doesn't have a shield unless if some fuck boy hops onto my titan steals something and then I kill him and pick that up.

>>152313484
The running assumption is that an enemy player can rodeo your titan and jack your shield battery. To get shields back, you need to find a new battery, or have someone else provide you one.

You have to have a battery on your character when you enter your titan.

>>152314395
But why

>>152314498
That's how you get the shield. Don't ask me why nigga, I don't know.

>>152314589
Well no wonder the titan fights feel so shitty now

>>152314589
So wait

To get a shield

You steal a battery from an enemy Titan

Who probably doesn't have a shield himself either

>>152314782
Or you spawn with one yourself, from the sound of it.

>>152314871
No, you steal a battery, just don't put it on your titan. Batteries can either give you health back, or give you shield.

>>152323881
Honestly this.

Titanfall 1 was solid. It literally only lacked in content and matchmaking

The rest of the game was absolutely perfect though in terms of mechanics and overall speed. Its what made it great.

Now here we are with Respawn promising more content but having sacrificed the speed of what made the original fantastic. Knowing respawn's reputation, they'll listen, especially if reddit AND here is blowing up about the key problems.

I honestly think the game needs like a 5-10% increase in speed

>>152324339

So Bounty Hunt is pretty much the poor man's version of Halo's Warzone right?

>>152326997
Yes, only difference really is the fact you need to deposit money

>>152326794
Damn.

>>152322884
overall I'd like it if it did both passive and active Titanbuilding, would reward people good at the Pilot parts, but still mean even terrible people will get their Titan at least once or twice a match

also they need to bring back Titans having a shield at all times(maybe change the battery theft mechanic so it acts as a health pack for Titans instead or something)

also they need to change it so your money isn't reduced on death in Bounty Hunt mode

and lastly they need to increase the Time To Kill, it's too low currently, first game had it near perfect for this kind of game

>>152323575
>Titanfall and Xbone subreddits are calling for a Delay
I'm agreeing, heck it probably doesn't even need to be a very long delay, as most of the needed changes could probably be done relatively quickly

>>152324339
agreed

>>152326997
Attrition was definitely a better mode(although Bounty Hunt isn't bad either, just needs some adjustments), also 5v5 feels too small even with the AI grunts running around, should be 6v6 at the minimum(and would be best with a even higher player amount)

Quit bitching about the change and try adjusting to it.
I have about 500+ hours in TF1 and I welcome this new installment. Going back to TF1 without the grappling hook is going to be janky as fuck

The maps feel like they were designed with the grappling hook in mind, and yet it is not included in every build and you have to look like an anorexic robot to use it.

>>152328034
>you have to look like an anorexic robot to use it.

One of the most requested features in TF1 was a deeper customization and funnily enough, i feel like it actually went backwards in TF2.

>>152328584
I saw some screens that showed three customization "slots" for pilots, one of which was linked to gender.
Do not give up hope

I already gave up, no buy from me, at least not any time close to launch. This will surely be a pretty depressing Fall after seeing how TF2 and DR4 turned out, at least GoW 4 is looking really good.

Even a fresh titan doesn't have the shield. I've seen them with them though, so it's probably the battery thing, but it's a teamwork power up instead. Not a bad idea overall, at least there's a reason to mount allies now.

>>152331967
Yes you need a battery pack to get a shield. But it doesn't regen. It's basically just an addition to your health pool.

I'm actually liking it, but I do dislike the new titan acquisition system, 3rd person animations and the fact that you can't have sidearms and titan weapon both. The titan shield system is a bit iffy to me though when it comes to shields, but I do like being able to support and repair friendly titans. The customization options for the titans will have to be judged when I actually get to mess with more of them, but damn scorch is fun once I started messing with it a bit. The speed does feel a bit less still coming from somebody who never knew about the bunny hopping even on PC, but the hook is pretty good still.

>>152332096
I don't like it. Titans feel so much less durable now. Plus they removed one bar of dash for all titans so they could give them back as a perk, and it recharges so much slower.

Also, pilots still spawn with way too much AT ammo.

>>152332481
I keep getting into fights with other titans only to have the eject prompt literally seconds later

The fuck's the point of titans if they're going to last less than a CoD killstreak?

>>152332586
Yeah, that was another thing I hated. The bright yellow stripe doomed healthbar is so much less noticeable now, and it's too easy to kill a doomed titan.

Also, all the fucking trees you can land in after ejecting and then die from out of bounds. Map design was awful.

>tfw pc
The one thing I noticed that I really want them to change is PUT BACK THE AI.
I WANTED MORE AI, NOT LESS

>>152332164
I don't get why they put together in the same slot pistols and Anti-Titan weaponry. Infinite ammo pool for your primary I could understand, because lol if you could manage to dry up thirteen mags worth of ammo before dying or getting into a titan in TF1, but why giving you a choice between a worse pilot weapon and your only mean to hurt titans. Did they use up alll the buttons for the controllers?

That's just it, there wasn't a lack of room. They just chose to not let you have a sidearm and anti-titan weapon at the same time.

Have we figured out what the fuck Respawn was drinking yet?

>>152334018
I don't even get that. Side weapons sucked in the first one and there was no reason for switching when you were empty save if you were a sniper and needed a decent weapon in close range, but giving them a bump in usability and then putting them in the same slot with a weapon class far more useful all around is not that smart of a move.

>It's really a shame, because the first game was an utterly stupid amount of fun, but they're designing against everything that made the first game good, for the sake of the COD audience appeal.

Thoughts?

So does each Titan have its own exclusive signature weapon in addition to a variety of other weapons to choose from, or is every Scorch and Ion always going to be exactly the same forever?

>>152335068
Sure, I guess all the automatic weapons that do similar damage with decent accuracy and high RoF are a strictly worse option.

>>152335501
Yes
The play style of high tier tf1 play favors the shotgun heavily, closest you can come is a r97

>>152334164
Piss.

>>152335332
I think "exactly the same forever" was what they wanted this time around. They want to make it easier for players to know what they're taking on.

Don't know what else I expected from EADICE but I'm feeling genuinely let down by Respawn.

>>152337178
I think the problem was that even the fans of tf1 burned out fast. Personally, I attributed my own drop off of the game being too fast. It was always exciting, yet the rhythm of farming creeps and getting your titan and ejecting out felt samey. There just wasn't enough variance. I like the idea of more rigid titan loadouts, and I hope they end up balanced so that everyone isn't always using the same ones.

>>152337891
You and the People who post their Issues about the Game seem to forget that the Game will release in 2 roughly two Months.

They wont make huge Changes to the Gameplay anymore.

Give it up, Titanfall 2 will sadly be the next Battlefront.

I haven't tried the beta yet, but I found that the description for Bounty Hunter mentions something called the Remnant Fleet, what is this?
http://www.titanfall.com/en_us/multiplayer/#modes

>>152338618
The destruction of the Demeter refueling facility cut the IMC off from earth. Years later, their still fighting as the remenants of the IMC.

>>152338856
no the Militia are still called the Militia, I think this is talking about something else

>>152339530
>the militia is still the militia
And the former IMC is now the remenant. The militia were the separatists that wanted to split from earth control, and the IMC was the force that earth sent to put down the militia. Demeter was a victory for the militia.

>>152339662
shit, I messed up, still, as far as I know the IMC and the Militia are still called by their respective names in all other materials

>>152339802
What would the remenant be if not the defeated IMC? If they're neutral, the story is likely going to be two splinter factions of the militia that disagree on how to govern their sector. That gives them more room to make both sides morally grey rather than having an ebil corporation faction as default bad guys.

>>152340074
the story is about a Militia pilot stuck behind IMC lines so I doubt that the way they portray both factions will change significantly, I just wanted to know if that so called neutral faction is in game since I heard there aren't grunts and stuff now

>>152340170
As far as gameplay, the neutral faction is just grunts, spectres, and titans both teams fight over to score points. Then you can kill other players to take half their points, and you have to bank them at an objective so they can't be stolen.

How fucking hard would it be to just copy/paste TF1's gameplay and just upgrade the assets with new visuals and toss in new features/maps? That's all they had to do.

>>152321763
Blops 3 lets me go faster than TF2 so far. I wanna go fast not fucking slow because normies can't go fast.

Nobody is talking about the atrocious party system. The network mechanic is ridiculous. I enjoy the game. Using the grappling hook to slingshot and go fast is fun.

>>152341407
I was just talking to someone who complained about the exact same thing, it being "too fast".
Did they really slow it down that much?

>>152341407

I don't know how they've messed up so much. Have they not listened to the hardcore fans of the first?

This actually reminds me of a video on why more games are becoming like CoD and it's because of stupid focus groups they do and everyone they get in is a casual dudebro who says it isn't CoD and they want it to be more like CoD.

It's ruining every decent FPS series that dares to do things even slightly differently. This is one of my biggest letdowns in games in a long time because I was such a huge fan of the first. It's unlikely they're going to fix this before release but let's be honest, they don't give a fuck. They know they're going to make some $£€

>>152341753
Really? What's made it slower? Ads? Movement speed? Does the momentum not carry through jumping as well?

>>152341919
The game forces a slow on you after a few special moves so you can't chain them indefinitely. Also faster ttk means more camping because firing first has more advantage than being harder to track.

To everyone complaining about getting your Titan too slow, try finding a drop zone and kill grunts, kill just like 10, you get tons of money and you'll get your titan retarded fast. Or, kill like 10 pilots in 60 seconds, that'll do it as well.

>>152341769

The momentum is lost quicker, especially if you bunny hop twice or try to chain other movements together to maintain your speed.

>bunny hop on the ground twice and get on a wall

>slow to impulse speed immediately after the second hop

It's like their trying to force you to use the grapple because casuals don't like speeding targets.

>>152342107
As a follow up, to those complaining about speed, just slide and boost into whatever it is you want to do. They stole this mechanic from BO3 (which was prob stolen from somewhere else). Sprint+Slide+Whatever=Speed.

I mean, it doesn't fix the slowdown but it helps you get going faster.

>>152342107
They seemed to make Titans harder to get and harder to keep, which is strange considering it's called "Titanfall".
On the last legs of the first one, so many games people would quit if the other team had too many titans.

SERIOUSLY THOUGH I CANT JOIN A MUCH
IT JUST SAYS PLAYERS 10/10 AND CREATING MATCH BUT IT NEVER CREATES THE MATCH

PLEASE SEND HELP

>>152342294
>It's like their trying to force you to use the grapple
which would make sense if the grapple was both a universal ability(which it ain't), and if it weren't limited to being used twice before a ridiculously long cooldown starts

>>152342443
AU here, can't join a game either. Spoke to some lads in the lobby and they said they cant find games, too. Im gonna play Overwatch till it fixes itself.

What's your region?

ausfag as well

>>152342396
>can you
You can get close with stim or grapple, but it might not be the best way to play anymore. Though I did see a webm on v that showed some truly ridiculous pilots vs titan chain grapples.

>>152342319
I'm sure TF inspired AW which inspired BO3 which in turn inspired TF2.
I'm just really happy they added sliding. Now it's perfect.
Just had my first match, Titans are a lot harder to get but they're worth a lot more. The map felt bigger and less vertical. Stim is so much faster and I'm gonna miss the old pulse but the new one isn't too bad. Arc grenades are nerfed but that's deserved.
The HUD is absolutely everywhere.

Sydney servers are down apparently. I'm running off Hong Kong 150ms. Not too bad.

I'm gonna play Overwatch until the servers are up, but im gonna monitor the thread. Could one of you fellas be an a true blue aussie hero and let a mate know when the servers are back up?

>>152343050
>not the best way to play
I'm gonna try hard and get gud and make it the best way to play. Tf was a greay fast paced fps.

>>152343340
Sure thing m8
Thought the hong kong network isn't the worst

>>152343420
How'd you connect to that? I just turned the game off after searching for 2 hours.

>>152343351
*great

>>152343461
On xbone go back to title screen, x for data center and choose any one that isn't aus and has decent ping

>>152343351
Don't play bounty hunt then. Instead of killing grunts that spawn all over the map and fight each other, they spawn in two tiny areas and stand around waiting to be murdered. That more than anything kills the movement. Youve just got pods falling on top of each other and you almost have to sit in one spot to farm them, rather than murdering a single pod then fly on to somewhere else.

>>152343625
On the topic of grunts, I'm glad they kept them. They're great little buggers. They also seem a lot better, taking cover and stuff. Do they still comment and talk to eachother? I loved the fact that they would salute you and comment on pilots.

>friends telling me to stop playing like Sonic the Hedgehog
Keep up scrubs

I've discovered you can Go Fast still, but it requires extreme use of the grappling hook as a pendulum between titans

I hope they buff the speed a bit closer to TF1, but I'm actually excited about the campaign, so I'm already mostly sold

>>152343727
I haven't played hardpoint yet, so I don't know if they're there, but they're aren't any friendly grunts on bounty, and I don't recall any dialog from them.

>>152343980
Nooo
Please devs if you hear me, keep them in there with the conversations. It made this game stand out and it was kinda meta.

>>152344103
Sorry, can't hear you over the clinking of all these shekels.

They really need a moba lite mode.

>>152344270
For what purpose

>>152345282
Give creeps an actual purpose. I'm not looking for the paragon hard port of league, but something where you need to escort grunts so they can complete objectives would be great.

A few webms convinced me to but titanfall 1 mere moments ago. Downloading right now.

What am I in for? I sure hope the game isn't dead.

>>152337178
none of the people paid to play the game actually like the changes either.

>>152345491
buy*

>>152345515
I honestly hope this changes. I don't want it to die.

>>152345948
it could swing either way, these people have a bad habit of not hearing to their player base, but i doubt they have actually had this big of a shitstorm to deal with before either.

Really? I thought Respawn were some of the greatest devs out.

>"how shit is this"

holy shit this community thing is kind of nice
instant premades without having to all that friend stuff

>>152347163
I managed to get 32.20 after about an hour of trying
As for how anyone could get any less than that, I have no clue

>>152347372
these are the same people who ignored a lot of the suggestions from cod to mw2

>>152345491
What console or pc

>>152348967
PC

>>152350061
It is probably dead on PC, maybe more are playing because it's in the news again

Console always had more titanfall

>Console always had more titanfall

At the same time, the game couldn't be more PC oriented. You get a pretty mediocre CoD rip-off on consoles, it's on PC with the speed and all that the game is worth shit.

Movement (minus the grappling hook) is too slow

Everything feels clunky

Titans take fucking forever to get now and die in 30 seconds

Why does the Maglauncher feel like ass now

>>152352867
Just need getting used to, and Titans are just hard mode now
