I know.

Alright, so Titanfall 2 is on sale my niggas. I never played 1 but I heard some good shit about it. I heard this is better than anyhting else. Last FPS I played and got bored of was BO3, currently playing Overwatch.
My question is, should I get it? Also, Deluxe or standard?
>>162682490
As far as I can tell, it's purely client-side cosmetic. I.E. even though you're sharing a dropship with others, what they see might not be what you see.

>ion counters legion
??????? lol
One thing I don't like about this game is it makes me feel like I'm being punished for certain weapons. I mainly play with the CAR because I've had it since level one so I'm most comfortable with it, but I really enjoy the Mastiff, EPG and Flatline. The problem is I can pick up Devotion, Volt or Hemlock and instantly do better with no effort on my part.
So what are Grenadier class weapons for exactly? Are they more anti titan or just for AOE or what?

Tone users confirmed to have brain damage.
>>162685441
If the legion is stupid enough to keep shooting Ion counters the hell out of it.
Ion basically counters a braindead legion, and seeing as the majority of the playerbase is stupid enough to keep shooting legion or not, it counters most legions. You'll have like 150 or more rounds just tready to fling en masse after their sheild falls.
>>162685538
How about you pick one up and see what happens?
They work against pilots and titans
>>162685441
vortex shield fampai
>>162685634
Legion main here, I feel like playing Legion is an exercise in patience. Ion/Tone shields, Ronin/Northstar dashes and Scorch firewalls are all gonna make life difficult for you because you are slow and can only fire in short bursts before having to reload again.
>>162685634
>>162685767
no
all they have to do is stop clicking
that's it
even the most brain dead players can recognize the big blue swirly circle and stop shooting
everything else in his kit outclasses her, legion is a counter to ion, not the other way around. chaingun outdpses splitter rifle, laser shot is useless against his shield, and tripwire is useless against everything, there is literally nothing you can do against a legion as long as he doesn't shoot into your vortex like a retard
Implay legion on Kodai and Homestead, everything else is ronin
>>162685634
Playing legion smart is great. Ions think they're about to wreck a shitty player, but you shoot in bursts when their shield is down. They die slow, turning vortex shield on and off like a blinker.
>>162685860
Pretty much, Legion is knowing when to go all out and when to be patient. I main it as well, off and on with ion and scorch but I have the most time in it now probably (only one I've regenerated so far but I'm pretty new) I love the thing, it's underestimated by most. Not to mention fun as hell.
>>162685941
I play*
>>162685368
Allow him to fire 3 three trackers onto you so he can fire missiles, catch the missiles and throw them back. While he shoots trackers just shoot him with your primary fire. Works like a charm.
>>162685924
You'd be fucking suprised how many people just keep shooting the thing.
Mind you I'm on console, so there's gonna be more CoD bros with brain damage on the thing. I agree though there isn't much as an Ion you
>>162685924
>laser shot is useless against legion shield
Even with the shield boost kit legion gets decimated by laser core.
And higher health/dps doesn't make legion a counter. All its abilities are focused on one weapon: the chain gun. It's all legion has. Ion can take every bullet from that gun and turn it around.
>>162686173
Shit pressed enter early, anyways I agree with you there isn't much you can do against a smart legion as an Ion, hence why I said it was a counter to a completely brain dead legion.
>>162683994
>My question is, should I get it?
Yes
>Also, Deluxe or standard?
You get the two Prime Titan skins for Ion and Scorch (new look, execution, deeper OS voice I think) and a bunch of other cosmetic shit with deluxe so it's up to you
>>162686241
>laser core
>the second easiest core to just walk away from, second only to flight core
>>162683396
Wait, what? Even dmg from behind? I need to use it more often.
>>162686054
>only one I've regenerated so far but I'm pretty new
I'm in the same boat. I usually come in first when I play LTS (except on Complex, I suck at that map for some reason).
The pattern is peep around the corner till they pop their shield, get back to reload and wait out their shield, repeat. Power shot if they get too close. Just gotta take your time and exploit EVERY opportunity to reload and never waste a single moment of unshielded shoot time.
>>162686241
laser shot is not the same thing as laser core. the whole point of cores is that they are so powerful they ignore favorability in 1v1s, they are a trump card for every titan. and unless you overextend and expose yourself like a retard, you can just walk away from laser core after taking only a little bit of damage.
>Ion can take every bullet from that gun and turn it around.
no he can't, he has limited energy pool and long startup on vortex, in real matches people don't just spray into the vortex shield forever. also means he has no energy for laser shot or 5xsplitter so as long as legion shields the return or dashes out of it ion can't do anything.
>>162686401
Got the standard.
>>162686410
>easy to walk away from
We're talking about legion here anon. You better hope you're near cover, and even then the Ion can follow you if it's close enough. If it catches you out in the open you're fucked.
Laser core's prime purpose is fucking over Ogre titans
>>162685965
This. Ions get so cocky when they come across my Legion, thinking I'm just gonna mag-dump into their Vortex Shield. The smart ones back the fuck up before their robo-pussi is prolapsed while the stupid ones just end up getting doomed by dual Close Range Powershots.
It's the Ions who don't even bother with Vortex Shield are the ones I actually worry about. They either kite me from long range with their better burst damage with Laser Shot or catch me off guard with Spliter Rifle powered shots.
>>162686671
>You better hope you're near cover
lol do you not have control over your titan or something? there is no hoping, if you are playing against an ion don't just rush out like a retard and overexpose yourself. ion also can't dash with laser core so as long as you have your dash you can escape 100% of the time.
>>162685860
>and can only fire in short bursts before having to reload again.
extra ammo m8
Even with the hidden compartment I cant go without it, its just so good
>>162686671
It is impossible to not be "near cover" in these maps. Firing the laser core, Ion gets slowed down to 25% of her base movement speed, that's 2.7 MPH. Even a crouching Ogre moves at 5 MPH, you would have to be trying really hard to not get to cover once a laser core starts warming up.
>>162686798
There are long stretches of open space on most maps retard. You have to cross them at some point and when you're halfway across with a Legion an Ion can dash into view and laser core. No possibility of getting to cover.

Blind ones too. You apparently didn't see where I typed "open spaces you have to cross".
The long, straight lanes on Dry Dock. The narrow canyons on Crash Site. There are situations where you have to move through corridors with no cover. I'm saying if an Ion catches you halfway through one of these spaces and uses laser core, your Legion won't get away in time

>>162688031
I know they're not long but they're long enough that a Legion can't get away.
I've tried to stand my ground with shield up. Laser core destroys me.
I've tried turning and sprinting the moment I see him activate his core. Laser core destroys me before I can round a corner.
I think you're underestimating how slow Legion is. I have a dash on mine and it's still not enough to get me to cover sometimes.
I'm not saying Ion trumps Legion everytime, I'm saying there are specific situations where laser core just means you're fucked.
Argue and bitch all you want. It doesn't make you right.
>>162688475
>I know they're not long but they're long enough that a Legion can't get away.
No, they aren't. It's that simple. There is nowhere in this game that you could "have" to go that you can't cross in 2 seconds in any Titan. Please, stop believing Reddit when they tell you Ion is the best Titan.
>>162687643

Holy shit. I know you're exaggerating but to believe something like this is stupidity.
Legion and Scorch are made to be slow. It's one of their main attributes, along with high health. Dealing with that shitty mobility is part of playing as them. If you don't believe there are situations where that slowness will get you killed then you're beyond help.

hi im new
explain to me why a game with mechs has sexy anime girls
what the hell is the difference between the wingman and wingman elite
>>162691820
I've never actually played with anyone from TFG. I've been invited once, but it was to play LTS, which I don't dare play because I know it's filled to the brim with Tone.
I think I'm pretty damn good at TF2, too.
>>162692145
Why wouldn't there be sexy anime girls?
>>162692157
Elite fires a projectile instead of hitscan. Always perfectly accurate, hipfire or otherwise. Higher damage and better range scaling. Doesn't one-shot when amped unlike the vanilla Wingman.
>>162692145
because this is 4chan and we sexualize anything we can

>>162694376
I have a lot of fun (and success) with the softball, but its a situational weapon. it excels on maps like complex and drydock where there are enclosed areas that the enemy will have a hard time avoiding your explosives in.
more open maps like homestead aren't suitable for softball usage (in my opinion)
>>162694669
I bought it brand new for like $30 one Friday.

Is there an SMG that isn't considered OP? I find SMG's fun but I'm tired of people complaining about my weapon choice
>>162694160
He's referring to the first type, then, and those sort of go hand in hand.
>>162695023
r-97 is the only one thats "balanced" because it takes 5 or 6 hits to kill. its still perfectly accurate though.
>>162695023
I'd say any of them but the volt are balanced
>>162694924
You're never beaten until you admit it :^)
>>162695320
>close-range Alternator braining people halfway across Kodai
>balanced
>>162695320
they're not balanced, they do too much damage for how accurate they are.
like the other guy said, alternator is "close range" and has "heavy recoil" but you can still out-snipe an actual sniper with it.
What am I supposed to do as Scorch if I encounter a Tone at medium to long range? Just run away?
It seems impossible to out poke, especially with the much slower projectile and Tone's shield
>>162694376
>>162691721
Use the ordinance expert perk, it lets you see the trajectory for the shots so you can snipe and what not, I also recommend using frags to maximize your benefit from the perk.
Also, nice job xbone tfg on that LTS match! Sorry I had to run out on yall, hopefully my scorch didn't bring us down too much
>>162695843
run away, pop in and out of cover if you can and harass with primary weapon/gas grenades/firewall, try to work in close but usually you are at a massive disadvantage sadly
>>162695023
That's no good if that bothers you.
>>162695634
>>162695715
this hasn't been my experience with the gun at all, and I use it a fair bit.
in my use of it, it's been useless outside medium range
>>162695869
softball by default has the trajectory line when aimed down sights, ordinance perk is not needed
>>162696226
Oh shit, did not know that with the softball
Alright holy shit they either need to nerf the damage or the mag size on the Devotion because that shit is absurd
>>162696428
I think they should increase the time it takes for it to wind up to full firing speed, instead of damage or mag nerfs
Playing with the Xbone TFG bois is good fun
I was just accused of hacking because I had a fucking fluke of a match where I managed to stay wallrunning and rain Cold War grenades on everyone
This is the most fun
>>162696428
it needs a damage ramp up, cause you can kill someone with the first 3 bullets
>first couple of second of wind up is shit damage
>then when its full auto it can have the rape damage
right now it just has rape damage on all shots

Also, what's with the sudden influx of loot box shit in FPS's these days? I feel like it has to do with Overwatch using that model and being really successful.

>>162697301
it definitely didnt originate with OW lol
team fortress 2 popularized it i think, and CSGO really put it over the rop
>>162697301
Greed. They want to cash in on the F2P model but not actually make their games free.
I'm so confused on what the point of rodeoing is. You either end up getting smoke screened to death, or the titan can just smear you across the floor the second you get off and take his battery back.
>>162696595
I wish I was there. Instead I'm doing manual labor outside in -10 degree weather. Fuck.
>>162697447
I know Valve has had them forever but to me it never seemed like a big deal until Overwatch happened. Now every big shooter is using crates. Granted, I'm not exactly sure how BF1 and MW Remastered implement it so I don't know if they use a key system or if it's direct buy-then-open.

Run Double Arc Wave

Shoot shotty again
Arc Wave
Phase Dash behind them(Hold Block upon re-entry if scared)
Shoot shotty
If the titan isn't dead, sword core them until they run or eject.
I'd make a flowchart for most situations but I'm lazy. This is your basic combo that works against most players. Reload your shotty whenever you can and fire it rapidly, and use your block when you need to escape or withstand a core.

>>162688325
Not only can you phase shift away from it, but you can also use sword block to lessen the damage to about three quarters of one bar if they all hit.
>>162699032
Yes
>forgot to use the discount code on scorch prime
fuck me
>>162698332
the leadwall is your primary source of anti-titan DPS if you're not in sword core mode
don't forget about shield block, if an enemy is about to use a high-damage attack against you, throw up your sword block (for example, if a tone lands three cannon rounds on you, you can be fairly sure his next attack will be a tracking missile barrage, make sure you block it)
remember that ronin is a skirmisher, not a brawler like scorch. you want to be flanking / outmaneuvering your enemy whenever possible.
a lot of ronins run with nuke eject, I used to but at this point I don't because its become very predictable and very few people fall for it any more. in its place, I use an extra dash (can never have too many)
phase dash has a variety of uses, if an enemy titan is about to hit you with a core ability, enter phase space to buy yourself some time. a good skirmishing tactic is to magdump the leadwall into your target, and then phase dash. reload the leadwall while in phase space to keep your vulnerability to a minimum
most of the ronin-specific kits are useful, but thunderstorm is my favorite. having two charges of arcwave is great
>>162699032
God that animation looks terrible. In other news I just bought the Pilot helmet and stuff from the Collectors edition for 150 bucks
>>162699273
does helmet actually fit? I know its supposed to be 1:1 but that doesnt necessary means it fits
also can you even see through the visor?
>>162699032
I feel like if Ion primes termination was in tf1, you would just grip both of their arms and laser core the cockpit until it melts then just throw the arms on the ground.

Every time I play bounty hunt I only die in the last half second of depositing, and the only reason is because half the time I choose the wrong deposit center and get fucked by a whole team when I'm going slow at the point.
I regularly pull over 2500 bucks tho so it's not a big deal clearly.
>>162700128
>Do you just have to go fast?
Yep, go fast and get high. You want as many rounds as you can to impact your target or a nearby surface. Coming in from above is your best bet, which is why it's not great on the wide-open maps

Anyone else feel like Ronin is the most snowbally titan to first-to-fall? Since he's pretty much the best pilot lawnmower in the game. I could see arguments for Tone, too, but she's good at everything so yeah
Every time I play against a first-to-fall Ronin, the next 5 minutes are just my team getting swooced 24/7 and nobody can get their titan to respond.I only play attrition by the way.
>>162699032
Wait, what's the point of Ion spinning around and shoving her butt directly in Ronin's face?
>>162701454
Nobody focuses titans in this game. There are plenty of AT weapons designed to put the hurt in titans at all ranges and no one uses them effectively unless they have literally no other choice.
If teams can focus a single Titan down in a few seconds its not a threat. We did it in 8v8 a few times, although usually the majority of the losing team (theirs) doesn't get to drop titans before we've won the match.
Those 8v8 mixtape match the xboners play are crazy, it's almost always 75-20 for score, which means less than 2 kills per enemy average, which means zero titans.

Ion, Legion or Scorch
>>162703975
Scorch
>>162703975
Legion.
Ion and Scorch are hard to get gid with, dont get me wrong, but you'll see fewer really good Legions on the field. Take advantage of that.

>>162707570
its amazing with satchel charges
shit recharges so fast, and you can have pinpoint aim for throwing them through windows or on titans
just today I've gotten a few double and triple kills by just throwing one in a window I was passing by
I just finished a game with like 3.8k ping. What the hell is going on?
>>162707570
It definitely seems more interesting than the ones currently available to me right now (fast regen, powercell)
>>162707713
>Throw both satchels onto a titan
>Take out a third of its health
As much as I love using them, the time between throwing and detonating is painfully long.
>>162706358
I don't have problems dealing with any titan in any titan (Except with decent Northstar as Scorch). It's just that if you think Ion takes any more skill to be effective than Tone for example, you are really delusional.

Stop pretending you'd do anything different.
Tone is fair and balanced. I d-don't mind seeing all the other militia pilots inside her.
>>162710675
I guess you weretoo slow
>>162710854
I like tone's design, and have her on the backburner untill the day she is nerfed to hell so I can finally play her
>>162710845
If I see a battery get stolen, I'll give it back to them, if they die or just aren't around, I'll give it to whoever I can, usually whoever has the least health.
>>162710901

There are mooks that spawn in waves and run around the map. They range from 1-5 points each depending on their type.
>>162711286
I think Reach gets a lot of unjust hate IMO. Yes, it messed up the lore, but it captured the feeling of fighting an already lost battle perfectly.
Each time a member of Noble died it felt legitimately bad (especially Jorge), right down to the last few minutes with Lone Wolf.
If it was re-written to be lore-friendly, I think it'd get a lot more love.

It hurts knowing that if the enemy team has even two people who are mildly competent, I can only slightly delay the inevitable
I just don't get the people who play this game sometimes, I mean the amount of times i've been in a match where the enemy team has 4 or 5 titans out, and my team has like 6 ready to go but I'm the only one who actually calls mine is absurd

Thanks, wilco.
>>162709415
its great amped, but the rest of the time it seems like 50/50 whether youre going to get the kill. the wind up time really hurts the weapon. if i dont kill them in the first shot, usually i cant get another shot off because of the wind up. its a fun gun, but i dont think itll ever be better than the epg or softball as long as it has that stupid windup

>>162714927
its fine except for places like australia
>>162716296
Well that's not necessarily true. You can certainty use stim/rope to go circle around the map fast but I like to use cloak to run straight up the middle and into groups of enemies so I can see whats going on right in front of me and inside buildings. Its a matter of preference towards planning out your attacks.
>>162716126
>>162715816
I mean, even 5k players sounds good. If there's only 12 people in a match population doesn't have to be that great, I just hope it doesn't mean that it'll only get worse though.

Wigman elite, I get bf3's 44 magnum vibe from that one
>>162715690
this gets asked 10 times a day. if people like you who kept asking this just bought it, the population would be much higher. its fine on pc unless you live in australia, queue times are usually not an issue unless youre playing latenight or something. if they are an issue then there is always mixtape which people seem to ignore for some reason.
either way you should go where your friends are first. if no friends, then get it on pc. playing this game with a gamepad is inherently harder.
holidays will probably bring in players for sure, but whether they stay or not is more important and who knows. i think we'll see a small increase in population

this is true, you dont need CoD kinda numbers to have active multiplayer. even when it dipped to 3k for one week a while ago, queue times were fine. maybe a little long(2-3 minutes), but still playable. and MIXTAPE. more people need to play mixtape, i dont understand why people dont. easy access to all the game modes that are underpopulated

it is, it's also much safer than G2A or Kinguin since it's simple key reseller and not key market like the latter two
don't forget about 5% off code from their facebook page
>>162716768
it blocks every type of damage. it also blocks a percentage rather than just a flat number, which can be good and bad in some cases. it turns laser and salvo core into just a few bars of damage rather than insta-kill, but a legion firing smart core(or just regular fire) and northstar can still hurt you a lot
>>162692145
Because people would rather make something that vaguely resembles the topic and masturbate to it than actually talk about the original thing.
Be thankful that it's not a tenth as bad as Pacific Rim threads.
>>162716573
I think mixtape is ignored because it used too (I think) be the first option then was moved for attrition and then moved for Angel city over on the other side of the first part of the menu.
Or at least it was originally closer to the modes, now it seems like the only things heavily populated are Angel city, Attrition and Bounty Hunt the first three on the menu.
Or I could be stupid and never noticed the low pop in Mixtape before.
Except for [tfg] brosand maybe some [F3] dudes, I've never seen anyone slidehop.
Being that slow has got to suck.
Anyone else confirm?
>>162716957
mixtape is on the first page, i forget if it was always on the first page or not. mixtape isnt really low pop, the queue times are always good except latenight where they turn from 1min to 1-3 min. it could just use more players.
if more players played it, there would be much less whining from people who say that you can only play attrition and BH.
i dunno, i just dont get those people. the answer to their problem is right there and they ignore it.

I think it always was but I think it used to be the closest to the front/the first option. I think most people just click the first option or the one under it and next too it which is why those three usually have high pops.
I also agree Mixtape isn't that bad off, and people need to realize the awnser is simple as joining it or whatever mode they want to help beef it up a bit.

I don't remember many of the older ones. Though the last few on /m/ have been (while rare) mostly robots. Or shit posting about the next movie.
Better than most Titanfall threads on there that all go on about the they're not mechs meme's despite this being the most /m/ game this year (at least made in the west)
So legions smart core aims your bullets for you? you just need to pump them out and they'll find their target?

yeah, I think you get infinite ammo too, so go wild
>>162717745
If there's a circle on the screen, big orange-red ones, then that means you have a lock, or locks, fire the fuck away and watch the kill feed when that hapens as you kill pilots with ease and whittle down titans, usually multiple, with DPS and BRRRRRRT.
>>162717697
/m/ hasn't gotten over the unfortunately worded "titans aren't mechs" because the writer was talking out of his ass about what he knew about Mechwarrior.
Also /m/ is kind of an awful place to discuss mecha at the moment. People have either cleared out or mostly shitpost over inane topics. People barely even talk about airing mecha anime, or even actively shun great shows. That board is in a bad place and the complete lack of moderation doesn't help.
But hey, at least /tfg/ is there for my vidya mecha needs.

>>162717621
You can turn around for a hop or two without losing very much momentum.
Iirc the normal slide hop doesn't work backwards, but bunny hopping without a slide work fine, hence the issue. Turning is ezpz, just strafe and face the direction you wanna go.
>>162717469

Yeah it's not in a good sort. It's still a decent enough place for news on franchises I like, and there's the odd thread I like but the lack of moderation is just insane. That said it seems that past few months the shit posting has been lessening, but that's only really a minor amount compaired to the shitfest that was earlier this year with last seasons shit wrapping up, it's likely to ramp up again soon.

Reach is the most important human controlled planet, second only to Earth. It's fall to the Covenant was a symbol of humanity's doom.
In the books the Master Chief and all other Spartan II supersoldiers are on board a ship called The Pillar of Autumn in possession of an AI called Cortana. They're orbiting Reach and about to engage warp drive to go into enemy territory when siddenly an enemy fleet warps to them and attacks Reach. The Pillar of Autumn is forced to turn back to defend the planet using the Spartan IIs.
In the game the planet is under attack by Covenant from the very beginning. Your team's mission is to deliver Cortana's AI core to the Pillar of Autumn before it leaves Reach. The ship hasn't even left the planet's surface yet.
I know it seems like a minor issue but this was back when Bungie were in charge and they promised that lore consistency was important to them.
>>162703730
They really need to sort the team order by damage not kills. Sick of getting 100k+ damage but bottom because of Ronins with 10k damage dash-dash-dash-executing everyone.
>>162720196
Are there other lore things they changed from the book to the game? I've always heard some people disliked the campaign due to this sort of thing and wanted to know about it
>>162720196
I really wish the plot of reach was revolved around some other mcguffin, instead of ignoring pre-established lore.
It absolutely nailed the feeling of being on Reach, with the battle lost from the start - just watching shit go from bad to worse and worse, as members of Noble keep on dropping...I loved it.
The teaser sums it up pretty well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3MabEog3yQ
>>162711457
>>162720447
>>162720196
The game also follows a group of Spartan IIIs, a top secret group of supersoldiers that never should have been wandering around doing random military ops. In the books every single Spartan III is accounted for, and the game doesn't give any explanation for why Noble Team exists. It shouldn't. It was clear that the writers just didn't want to use another Spartan II as the protagonist because those supersoldiers are incredibly rare. But the books had created a new kind of Spartan so they went with that, never mind the inconsistencies.
Also the reason people bitch about the campaign is probably because of how it tries to force tragedy on you. It's not like >>162711575
said. About halfway through the game your team starts dying one by one in increasingly over the top ways. It becomes a "who can have the most heroic death" competition that's so ridiculous you can't feel anything serious about it

>>162720753
>phase shift

is there any lore behind robo pilots?
[/spoiler] or that weird third arm cloak and a-wall have
>>162720923
The arm switches weapons in third person animations I think
>>162720593
But the thing is, like every other Spartan engagement, they don't lose battles. With the number of actual Spartans present at Reach, the only thing that could have happened was an overwhelming force taking the planet, and that didn't even happen. They just glassed it. That's where Spartans fail, when the fight goes from the ground to the air/space. That's where they fucked up the story for me, bumble Fucking around on reach and messing with where people are is one thing, but flying in the face of ALL the books with stuff like that is kinda stupid. The Sabres were a mistake, they made space combat look like a fair fight when it was really on a larger scale where the humans couldn't compete.
>>162720923
Simulacrums are basically dead pilots whose mind of whats left of it was placed in a fully robotic body, no idea where their brain scan comes from but I suspect its from the combat records with titans,for that third arm, I'd say its basically just a helper hand, you put your weapon in it so you can do complex tasks while shooting or something like that, I dont know really.
>>162721049
The books did space combat so well. Keyes managed to pull off one amazing manoeuvre, destroying two covenant ships, and people worshipped him as a tactical genius. That the war had been going on for 25 years and that was the first time a human ship outperformed a covenant ship reinforced the sense of doom for humanity.
>>162721221
I loved that chapter. I like that beat to beat style of storytelling that was easy to follow and fairly linear, but easily understandable. Though I admit it's been a few years and I forget what the Keyes loop looks like now.
>>162721375
Yeah Eric Nylund was a great writer. They should have got him to do all the books. Ghosts of Onyx a Fall of Reach were the highlights of the series.
>Keyes loop
As far as I remember he waited til one ship fired a homing projectile at him then he flew loops around another covenant ship until the projectile hit them. Somehow the first ship to attack also crashed into their allies while chasing Keyes' ship.

Read the books. They range in tone from action hero to Tom Clancy, all with a solid and grounded scifi feel that is very unique and they're very entertaining. Page - turners for sure.

The gameplay got pretty generic after a few games. The lore is great though.

The hate was real, the main issue was that
it was like playing against a time bomb if you came up vs. SP. You have a set time fram to kill the user and if you miss just a single shot, you were dead.
More often than not, hitting 4 shots in a row on a bhopping target was extremely hard, so you'd lose most fights vs. SPs.
I'm gonna need all your titanfus.Please.
>>162724617
>>162724705
All you had to do was break their line of sight. If I didn't think I could kill them before they locked on I'd sprint straight past them. Most smart pistol users were so focused on locking on they wouldn't even melee you when you got in range
>>162725087
Just got the Crusader camo. Too bad there isn't one for the gun too.
>>162725096
The first game didn't tell you if they had a lock either, that's one of the things than made it much stronger than it is now.
I honestly think this iteration is underpowered as a boost, but too easy to use as a load out weapon. If it only locked into grunts it's be a great secondary weapon to compliment sniper rifles and Grenadier weapons in the minion modes.
>>162726081
I honestly think SP could be a fun as hell weapon to use while not being broken.

>>162727001
give it a damage profile between the re-45 and the hammond and it sounds perfect.
>>162727394
Fine too. I just wanna have SP back but non-op. I think the perfect hipfire could make it so you at least stand a bit of a chance even if you're up against a Volt or CAR, as long as your aim is good.
But obviously, SMGs are supposed to wreck Pistols.
Would probably only be viable in Attrition and BH, unless you wannahard mode in non-AI gamemodes

Momentum for strafe jumping in source depends HEAVILY on which dire room you are facing. It's POSSIBLE to turn around for a hop or two, but you will lose momentum. There's no way to flat out backwards slide hop

is slide hopping sliding on the ground then jumping over and over again? Cause i do that shit all the time in warframe. Although its been a while, i wonder if they removed it yet.
>>162732060
It works different in TiF2.
>>162684025
Can confirm. Played with friends. We were in the same dropship. They had Sarah yelling them how good their cause is, while I work for 6-4 and Gates told the enemy team how we're gonna kick their ass.
>>162732164
ah. I should learn it too.i miss the days of warframe where to go fast you had to slide, melee with a melee weapon like dual axes, and then jump to do it all over againwith rof fire mods you literally looked like small helicopters zooming around the map
>>162732060
If you build up some speed then hold crouch, release the W key, and jump the exact instant you touch the ground, everytime you touch the ground you can conserve your momentum and continue going super fast on the ground
>>162730684
Same here mate. Maybe I just didn't notice it at first, but it's getting quite annoying now. I think it is a connection thing though.
>>162732504
It was even in the first Titanfall. I heard they don't use compressed sounds, and I that's what causes it. Also, ShadowPlay makes it even worse.
Could anyone tell me how much faster is Ronin's phaseshift cooldown when using temporal anomaly and how much does the highlander extend the sword core?
They should really include some fucking info on that shit, especially since they don't even bother to tell you the most important stuff like Turbo Engine making your dashes have a longer cooldown.
>>162732786
>Turbo Engine making your dashes have a longer cooldown.
what? i havent noticed this
>>162732841
Only on Ronin and Northstar
>>162732841
It does.
Only on Ronin and Northstar.
Makes each dash CD 8 seconds instead of 6, making it a total of 24 seconds as opposed to 12 seconds.
>>162732841
When using the turbo engine on Ronin or Northstar they get 2 seconds longer cooldown on each dash if I remember correctly, as far as I know other titans aren't affected by it.

I've been croutching, and also practicing in the campaign where you have some wide open spaces to practice in, but I croutch in midair, hop just as soon as i touch the ground, keep hopping, and keep going. Sometimes it keeps my chain going, sometimes I just lose all momentum for no reason. In the MP i can just mix it in with wall runs to keep my momentum up but that's not always an option, and the way he bunnyhops here makes it look like you could do a lot more when you can just keep your momentum up with the bunnyhopping for long periods without any wallrunning
>>162733656

Alright /tfg/ I hate bugging generals with this question, but I've checked this game out and from what I've seen the game looks pretty interesting. My issue though is that I'm not completely sold on it. I played a bit of the first one about a year back and while I enjoyed it the game seemed a bit lack luster compared to the hype surrounding it. Is this game more or less the same with a few additions or did they greatly improve on it? Am I getting enough bang for my buck? I'm not asking you guys to try and sell this game on me but I want to have the idea that I'm not wasting my time. I don't think my PC meets the requirements so I'll be picking it up forPS4

Sandstorm is pretty cool
>>162735804
TF2 is definitely an evolution on everything in TF1. Some things work differently now, but most of the changes are a direct response to player feedback from the first game, most notably the singleplayer campaign. Don't forget Respawn's refusal to employ a season pass and their promise that all gameplay DLC will be free for everyone. Titanfall 2 is most definitely one of the dark horse games of 2016; it deserves to be bigger.
>>162738119
Yes; everything you purchase with credits is permanently yours, even through regeneration.
>>162738414
If I start the game I play it not reading FAQs.

Keep in mind that the drawback isn't as large as you might think. the 12 to 24 second CD number people throw around is misleading due to the fact that they include the extra dash CD
6+6=12
vs
8+8+8=24
2 extra seconds per dash isn't too terribly much of a trade-off compared to the functionality of having a triple-dash; additionally, that third dash means that your bars are refilling more often, since you can dash twice and still have one more dash in reserve while the other two replenish.
That said, I don't think the extra dash is worth much on Ronin to begin with, since he has 2 dashes + Rift dash innately. Since he has plenty of innate mobility you can opt for other optionsby that I mean nuclear eject since the other options for that slot suck ass in comparison to turbo engine/eject
Northstar does benefit a great deal from that third dash, however, since she's so helpless if she can't easily break LoS if she gets flanked/ganged up on.
>>162743185
>BT throwing away the XO and basically going "I dont need this for your weeb ass"

god damn I love BT
>>162742506
I would've been happy with a race of sorts that ended with sticking or throwing a knife into the other pilot. Thought for sure Blisk and Cooper were going have a QTE fist fight as a final boss with how they built him up as bettah.
>>162740705
That is really nice. Well done.
Last night I solo's a Ronin and a Scorch as Northstar. I'm not sure if they were stupid or if I've been greatly underestimating her.
>>162744107
It could be both.
>>162744209
True. We were in that canal to the side in Drydock. They had to run down a pathway with next to no cover to get to me and I wasn't being stupid and forgetting to lay down tethers.
>>162744107
That's the thing with Northstar, and why so many people here (myself vocally among them) love her so much.
When she's in her niche, and can maintain spacing/zoning, she performs phenomenally and can decimate enemy titans.
The issue is that her niche is microscopic compared to how generalist all other Titans are. Scorch is almost comparable, with his emphasis on flanking/getting in close, but his reliable defensive ability (dude tether lmao) and extra health allows him to take some punishment while he gets into his zone, while NS is made entirely of wet 1-ply toilet paper.
anyone have any idea if the -threads x command works with titanfall2 and 8 core amd processors?
>>162744764
But muh Ionfu.
>>162740705
Did BT draw that? It doesn't look like his style.
>tfw you get more points by yourself than their entire team does combined
I almost felt bad about this stomp. Ion wrecks shit on Eden, just spam your tripwires into the little middle courtyard area and get infinite money, both from AI and enemy pilots will just keep running into them
>>162746168
I also only died once throughout the entire match, and when I did die I took out my killer with a cooked frag grenade as well lol
Which tactical is the cutest and why is it pulse blade?
I fucking hate homestead
every single match there's some faggot with a devotion killing me as I fast around
why does it have literally no recoil at max fire rate
why does the recoil go lower instead of higher as the fire rate increases
I wish I wasn't playing on console so I could actually aim the gooder and snipe those fags with my hammond
>>162746392
fem grapple is my waifu
>>162746437
Devotion needs it's damage to start out shit and ramp up with it's accuracy and then it wouldn't be so bad, and the weapon keeps the idea of a suppression weapon that makes you keep your head down when you hear it. As it is right now everyone just instantly kills you with it's first three shots anyway, eliminating the suppression idea
>>162718075
You actually got it printed. You fucking madman.

>>162748072
With the change to rodeo mechanics and the addition of the Devotion, it has no reason to exist. I get the feeling they put it in solely to have the full set from tf1 in the game.
>>162747546
Given that the R2 is one of the worst guns in the game without being projectile... I doubt it. A lot.
>>162748268
>Given that the R2 is one of the worst guns in the game
huh? its solid at all ranges
>>162748268
Is there even any reason to pick the r201 over the CAR?
>>162748268
>>162748373
r201 is raifu
pretty much this >>162748373
>>162748373
No, it really isn't. Honestly, after its buff, even the Flatline might be a better choice now.
>>162748394
Not really. The CAR has closer damage falloff, but that doesn't matter because the R2's greater spread and recoil make it ineffective at long range anyway.
Over the R2, the CAR has no spread, almost no recoil, a higher rate of fire, larger magazines, and a notably faster reload.

try and be in the air as much as possible and target enemies on the ground/walls, the splash damage will take care of the rest
each shot does 30 dmg regardless of direct or splash, so just spray the general area (and keep in mind all 4 have to hit to kill a full health pilot)

when i shoot the cold war i just sweep in a circle shape to make sure each shot hits
i use holo pilot to distract a-wall fuckers and the e smoke is in case they don't have their back to the wall for ez cold war kills
>>162750129
That's because they use it wrong.
If you're trying to kill at close range it's disabling, but at long range it can devastate pretty much any other titan and then shoulder shot the pilot when they eject.
>>162750028
True. It's just a jarring difference in play style and design.
>>162750129
at least laser core is accurate and doesn't throw you above cover
Is the Thunderbolt good for ANYTHING?
Does it disrupt titans like an arc grenade?
I wouldn't know because I've literally never seen anyone else using it
>>162750423
good for indirect fire on groups of titans, especially at long range
just fire it over their heads and watch your titan meter rise violently.
>>162750423
As I understand it, the Thunderbolt has radiant damage. As long as your shot is vaguely in the same area as the target, it'll do some damage.
>>162750423
Spam it down where an enemy Titan is for easy Titan meter.
>Enemy Titanfall inbound, seek cover
>Double boost away from my current location
>Enemy Titan drops right on me
>I was completely fine where I was standing
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>162750423
It's really annoying when you spam it through chokepoints that Titans are trying to fight in and through
You can build your Titan meter with it super fast since it goes through pilots and you can deal good chunks if damage to several Titans grouped up together
>>162750423
It's a beast, but you actually do a shitload more damage firing past and around titans than with direct hits. Depending on angle you get 3 or 4 ticks on a stationary titan. They also have a lot of trouble figuring out where you're shooting from since the hit registry flies past them. I've found that firing just overhead is more effective than anything else.
Miss on purpose and you'll control alleyways with it easily.
>>162750642
Holy shit this happened to me yesterday.
Also,
>Enemy titanfall detected>It's a friendly reaper
I've used the Protect the pilot callsign since I got it, but this Downtime one with the chick on it is probably the first one that makes me question to change it.
>>162750642
Kinda wish there was a subtle queue of some kind, whether visual or audio, of where a Titan is about to land.
>Warning, Hostile Titanfall Detected
Works if they call the Titan right on you, but if they call a Titan first, and then you move underneath onto its drop point, you don't get any notification whatsoever. It just doesn't really feel fair as it's a death that is completely unavoidable.
>>162720753
>>162750986
There is a very distinct sound made when a Titan is called. Just pay attention.
When is Tone getting nerfed so i can play her without you niggers and others alike chimp out about it?

>>162757667
Not sure what it's called exactly but its HP and has an amd APU instead of intel integrated graphics. Apart from a little bit of audio stuttering at the beginning of matches I run it at 60 fps on minimum settings. It actually runs better on this than my desktop.
>>162758198
What the fuck is your desktop lol
>>162758198
Woah. I'm in the laptop market myself and didn't know that would be possible. What's the specific CPU/APU whatever?
>>162758409
I built it three years ago and it has an FX 8230 processor and a radeon 7770 gpu. Not fantastic even for the time it was built, but I only have a 720p monitor so it runs most things at max settings 47 fps (this is my monitor refresh rate).
It still blows my laptop out of the water though, and Titanfall 2 is the only game I have found that runs better on the laptop. Titanfall 1 didn't do this.
wtf the alternator is kinda rapey
>>162698072
BF1 probably uses the BF4 model.
>>162759031

>>162759017
It decimates at close range but you're kinda fucked if somebody catches you in the open. It's super effective against shitters who tend to aim down sights because they're typically dead by the time that they have you in their crosshairs, though.
>>162758589
Here are the specifications. I guess this is normally $400 but I got it for $350 with a $50 printer at best buy a year ago when they were having a sale.
The audio stuttering at the beginning of matches is terrible and drops the framerate very low, but it usually clears up within 30 seconds and after that it runs perfectly.

I just use her with Enhanced AI on auto-titan during shit like Capture the flag and Hardpoint. She can even snatch kills on unsuspecting pilots too focused on farming in Attrition.
Its fucking sweet going fast, getting into my titan for a quick sonar, or getting field intel from when she fires it herself.
The game really does need more Titan shit like Titan through, fastball disembark, shield pilot mode, roam mode, etc. Maybe I'll make a more detailed post when I get off of work.

>>162762207
>rddt roper being retarded
Gee, what a surprise.
The problem with the map is how it lends itself to titanrape. If the first team who gets titans aren't retarded game they already won.
>>162758856
replace that gpu and you should have no problem getting 60 fps on medium/high settings. the FX 8xxx processors are solid. im running an FX-8350 and an radeon rx 480 and i get 60 fps at maxed settings. before i upgraded to this rx 480, i had a radeon r7 260x, a much older 2gb vram card, and i still managed 60 fps on medium settings with this cpu.
>>162762274
Just get everyone to equip arc grenades and titans can be raped easily on complex since the pilots entry points to the hallway are so close to where enemies titans would be standing
>>162762010
>>162760585
its kinda both. they say ive got tone because their helmets make a noise that gets clearer as the lock-on quality goes up. sonar is sending sound(tone:a musical or vocal sound with reference to its pitch, quality, and strength) through water to locate things

>>162768395
>>162768552
actually giving yourself a raise literally wastes money on taxes

it's a combination of her being a REALLY good pilot-killer and still being solid at titan vs. titan matchups, while also requiring less finesse than other titans (Scorch has to get in close, NS and Ronin are made of paper, Legion is a fat fuck, Ion at the very least has to play her energy minigame)
If her radar missile didn't grant 1/3 lock and if her cannon didn't have as much homing/splash, or even if her missiles had a cooldown. Her core is also the best and easiest to use (excepting maybe Smart Core on ease factor) by a country mile
>>162770076
He never gives me trouble as Ion either. Just face tank his little pea shooter then catch his lock-on missiles and throw them back in his face, or in his teammates face if he has his shield up.unless he has salvo core, then cry and die
>>162769846
no
tfg are shitters
>>162769615
They are worth recording for the salt the generate in TFG alone.
>>162770076
Ronin, Scortch and Legion are all tone counters in the right hands
>>162769846
The issue isn't really the rockets or wall, while still obviously being the best loadout overall.
What makes her insane is Salvo and the almost non-existant wind-up time.
The damage is lower than Laser or Flight Core, but what makes it so insane, is that the full-damage is dished out in less than half a second. They're tracking too, on top of all that.
Pub shitters make any Titan look bad, however if you had a Tone face off vs. any other Titan of the same skill level, the Tone would win pretty much always.
TL;DR: Tone actually is that good
>>162770430
>salt
being utterly unimpressed != salt
>>162769846
they should make her missiles velocity slower and not track as hard
you should be able to dodge them with a well timed dash, but they also shouldn't arc so hard right into the target
they need to be able to not just shoot straight into the target, curving them is neigh impossible
>>162770696
>you should be able to dodge them with a well timed dash, but they also shouldn't arc so hard right into the target
you can already do that
>>162770865
what are you on?
I use her on ps4 and they track so hard they can hit through a good dash half the time
>>162770526
>if you had a Tone face off vs. any other Titan of the same skill level, the Tone would win pretty much always.
This is what shitters actually believe.
>>162771002
nope, at least on pc
>>162771002
If you dash diagonally towards them and to the right they're not hard to avoid.
>>162770696
>be this guy
>get shit on by tone
TONE'S FUCKING BROGEN REEEEEEEEE NERF IT TO THE GROUND
>>162770526
you are retarded
>mfw when you see some tfg on the other team and you've been playing like shit all day
>>162771046
ronin would win if he got close to tone without spending any dashes and that would never happen vs good tone
scrorch - see ronin
northstar would never win under any circumstances
legion would just get kited away to infinity
ion vs tone is timing and baiting fight but tone has easier time building core
what that anon said is correct
>>162771046
This, every Titan has a reliable way to deal with Tone since it's attacks are so predictable.
Ion
>Tank 40mm, vortex lock on missiles and throw them back. Attack with splitter rifle when not using shield.
>Just dash through the shield and melt with refraction lens, leaving enough energy to grab lock-on missiles
Ronin
>Standard Ronin stuff, except time phase dashes for lock-on missiles instead of when you need to reload
Legion
>Gun shield
Scorch
>Scorch is fucked unless you can flank, but if you can flank, tone is kill
Northstar
>Keep your distance using tethers and your superior speed. fully charged crits and then relocate. Don't keep peaking from the same spot or he'll just wait to pepper you
Why the fuck can I not find the network
>>162771774
>examples vs retarded tones
on equal skill tone wins most of the time
>>162771595
Nah, most of the time it comes down to terrain if the pilots have the same skill. Tone only has the advantage in the wide open.
>>162771774
Scorch can win by abusing buildings and the gas canisters.
I think NS is just plain screwed.
>>162771962
>Tone only has the advantage in the wide open.
Explain how Tone somehow benefits more from open terrain than enclosed terrain.
>>162771951
Tone has a very blatant skill ceiling. No matter how good you are at Tone, all you can do is alternate between 40mm and lock-on missiles.
Anyone who pays attention can quite easily see your shoulder thing pop up when you're about to fire your missiles and react accordingly.
Tone is only good versus people who aren't paying attention to Tone.
>>162772260
versus?
>>162772557
I don't know, you made the claim so you should back it up
Evac thread:
>>162772654
>>162772654
>>162772260
I would imagine because enclosed terrain allows other Titans to disengage and avoid lock-on using cover, whereas in open space everything Tone throws out is going to hit
>>162772692
I am asking you which other titan you are aslking about
>It's a your team can't break 1000 episode
>When you're at your best on and off foot in days and MVP
Feels bad. But also good because of MVP.
>>162772742
exactly, how you use it to your advantage varies per titan
