Similar to the "Reload Cancel" of the COD series, the addition of the Slide has allowed for this new reload animation cancel. Whatever weird effect the transition between slide and jump has on the reload states, the things that Respawn did to counter that simple cancel of COD now has a new workaround.

COD's cancel was easy enough since you just interrupted the animation after the "add time" where the ammo counter went up. Unlike COD where you could just forget about everything after the add time, you must complete the reload animations in Titanfall. Titanfall and T2's reload system breaks up the reload into several stages.

"reload_time" for the whole duration, and then "reload_time_late1" that occupies the last part of the whole time.
"reloadempty_time" "reloadempty_time_late1" and "reloadempty_time_late2" for obviously empty reloads.
The late1 times are roughly set to the point where you've removed the current mag and are bringing up another mag to load in. For empty reloads, the late2 to chamber a round by pulling the bolt/slide on guns.

If you were to interrupt the reload before you reached the late time, you would do the whole reload over.
If you interrupted after the late time, you'd replay the animation starting from the late time.

Whatever this "Slide Reload Jump Cancel" (SRJ Cancel?) is doing, it appears to cancel the reload animation and immediately move on to the Late1 time.
In the Flatline's case, it turns a 2.073 second total reload time into only its 0.6 second late1 time (plus the little bit it takes to perform the slidejump).
Or when empty, the 2.7 second empty reload is reduced to about 1.4 seconds.

that poor ronin, what was he thinking? do not do this. pic related is a pretty standard "rotation" that you can use when opening fights. reload and drop a smoke during the phase.
ronin isnt really a melee titan, hes more hit and run/pick your shots kinda thing. you only melee in very specific circumstances

IT BEGINS

>>167186873
>>167187129
>>167187284
it works with every gun
even stuff with segmented reloads (mastiff and softball), though you aren't going to see any real benefit in skipping one shell's loading animation; maybe for the mastiff's empty reloading into the chamber animation

>>167187256
>>167187457
we esports now

>>167187256
Why doesn't this work with certain guns?
Is it because they don't have a "reload_time_late1"?

>>167187703
>Is it because they don't have a "reload_time_late1"?
Which are the guns that do?

>>167159545
>>167187272
its definitely good but you guys are not mentioning its drawback: major energy drain. if you unload that much damage into a titan and dont kill it, or there is another enemy nearby, your entire kit is cutoff from you and you are defenseless.

>>167187872
Someone said it doesn't work with the CAR.

Is there a max regen for the factions? If so what is it? 10?

>>167187438
I'll admit my brief experience playing Ronin was pretty fun, thanks for the general advice.
I still personally think we'll get another sword Titan, the duels would be amazing.

>>167188070
100.

>>167188202
Is there anything you really get from that?
I dont use anyone but Apex but Im considering switching.

>>167188024
It does work on the CAR, it's just not as blatant as the other weapons.

>>167187703
>>167188024
Every gun has a late1 (some even a late2 on partial reloads) although some do have pretty long late1 times. It does definitely work on every gun, but some aren't going to benefit as much.

For example, the Spitfire has a 2.8 second reload and a 1.8 second late1 time. The time you cut off will be minimal. Rather, the time at the end will still be pretty long so it may not look like it worked.

The CAR's times are 1.8 and 0.82, so that's slightly less than 1 second. The animation can throw you off because the animation brings up a mag before removing the other, the cancel does definitely speed it up.

What does this even do to the Softball and the Mastiff?

>>167190764
If it does work though it would be incredibly significant because the gun doesn't have a conventional reload system. If the long animation could be shortened to the speeds seen in webms here or even just to normal weapon reload speeds that could completely change the outcome of some extended fights.

>>167188876
Here, put together all of the reload and late1 times in a pastebin.
http://pastebin.com/f3hYCfJp

The majority of weapons will cut off about one second from the total reload time. Many weapon reloads effectively are reduced to 1 second and change.
The Flatline looks to benefit the most, foillowed by the R-97.

>>167190406
The L-STAR does have a emptyreload of 6.0 and a Late1 of 4.7 seconds. You can cut off a bit if you time your last shot perfectly during the SRJ (can be a real pain in the ass since the L-STAR has a 75% chance of firing an extra shot when it overheats). Otherwise, it is fucked to its horribly slow cooldown/reload.

>>167190928
The Mastiff is one of two weapons that lacks a late time. You can't SRJ it. Every shell will take 1.03 seconds to reload.
The Softball however has a "reloadsegment_time_end" which may be a functional late time.
It's possible neither of them would benefit at all from a reload cancel.

Wingman Elite is for all intents and purposes it's own gun. It's a projectile weapon, and all its stats are different. The Wingman E is just a Wingman because iunno Respawn is lazy I guess.

time for humblebrag
I've been using grenadier weapons almost exclusively since I've picked this game up, the playstyle that goes with them makes my dick hard.

Can someone give me a quick description of gameplay for this game? Is it a lot like COD? Because I can't say I'm a fan of the more recent ones.

>>167194809
Ever since I picked up the game, I have used hitscan for maybe a grand total of an hour of playtime. I quickly graduated into the wild world of Grenadiers and never looked back.

Changed my Wingman to the Wingman E when that released, and I never play Legion, so I have essentially entirely sworn off of hitscan. I have no regrets.

Make liberal use of the aim assist mechanics. Get the enemy somewhere close to the center of your screen and sight up.

Just as you ADS, your weapon has a very strong "adspull" which pretty much locks on to enemies that are moving. Most of the time, they'll end up dead in your sights for about a half second
When your sights are on target, your recoil is also heavily reduced (the camera kick is automatically compensated for to some degree) compared to the unfiltered, harder kick that PC users have the manage manually.

nah, the pop is low but pretty stable. if you wanna help, tell your friends, make posts on whatever social media you use, etc.
also explain to the people that go "but if i buy it it may die in a month!" that they are part of the problem, and need to just buy the game if they want it. if everyone did that then the pop would be much higher.

word of mouth will keep it going. even titanfall1 is still playable today, though only attrition and maybe frontier defense. it has a strong core following, so absolute worst case scenario is you being stuck with only attrition game modes.
i think we'll see the pop rise a bit though, with upcoming DLCs and sales and stuff. doubt itll reach anywhere near 20k on pc, but maybe 6-8k, or 10k if they drop a really good dlc.

Eh. Only use Core for SHTF escape or fighting out a corner when Phase is on cool down. Don't rate it.

>Smoke
Has applications but once its gone its gone. Besides I never get rodeoed as Ronin because broadsword and leadwall are fine anti-pilot weapons.

Nuke Eject is great because you can phase into it manually and get the extra 1-2 seconds of 'shit, where's the nuke'. It fits his kit and I won't apologize for using good synergy.

How?

turbo engine makes dash regen slower on stryder chassis

turbo engine is better for burst speed, but it makes you slower for consecutive dashes.

smoke does damage titans too you know. max damage i think is around 1800, so it can be pretty useful. i run extra smoke on ronin and it has helped me secure titan kills i would have otherwise not gotten

What the fuck man, sword core is insanely powerful. Overcore helps you use it at least once and sometimes twice per titanfall

There's no way I'd trade a bit of chip damage for a 50/50 on 80%+ meter by the time I apex my eject.

look at his pose.
he looks like he was sprinting
even in death he stays fast.

speed is life, even in death

>>167204902
I wanna add in that it's not just the damage of the sword swings but it's the fast recharging dashes and ridiculously strong sword block that make the core strong. Hell it even makes Arc Waves better.

>>167204902
A single hit takes out around 80-85% of a health bar, and the arc wave does the same

Cold War is raifu

Is fun, is strong, is high altitude bombing

Amp it and it fucking destroys titans

But in the same time it tries to kill you in any way possible

>>167204902
If you flank the titans with the dashes Sword Core can be pretty effective, just try to avoid their line of sight

Leadwall suffers way too much of his limited range

>>167203505

This is a cute story you tell yourself but it's more like a sigh followed by "oh look, another faggot with nuke eject" 180 boost +10 ignored

>insta-shielding at the beginning of an engagement

I'll tell you right now, you have to quit that. Only hit your shield when you know there's burst damage coming your way. Eat the three 40mm shells and shield when the rocket burst comes. If an Ion is vortexing your shots, don't shield until you think he's going to throw them back. Because otherwise he's just going to time out your shield.

>>167205992
I love scorch; you have to remember he's a zoner. If the enemy is in a position and you don't want them there, just set that place on fire. Use the upgrade for the shield and you can pretty much decimate anything that gets close

>>167205632

There's mixup to be had. Also bodyblocking a cornered Titan.

Trust me, I don't get it by it either, and also used to think its shitter trash but it fits Ronin's kit and its FUN.

>>167205295

Yeah I use it for the dashes. Usually it sees most use getting to the drop ship to wreck the enemy teams shit.

>>167205683

Flatline is a fun and good rifle if you can handle the horizontal recoil.

I quite like the Double Take, you have to slow down a bit to use it but its a good jumpoff weapon because you can face off against 8-10 Grunts on the landing zone from where you fall.

>>167206696
FYI, the Flatline has a tendency to kick right. To maximize your recoil compensation with the Flatline:
>Crouch/slide
>Use ADS
>Fire in three-round bursts
>If you must full-auto, make a habit of pulling slightly left

Moreso than the other grenadiers, you must have the high ground with the Cold War. Once you get that, the rest should come on its own.

>>167207370

Phase lasts 2 seconds.

Unless you like to GTFO often its objectively worse. I can't understand it on Ronin at all. Northstar, maybe, because you want to put that distance down if you get jumped unexpectedly and you can maintain the distance afterwards.

It's not like the bigger playerbase matters when that just means there are that many more retards anyway.

>>167216045

As cancerous as PC players are in this general, I have to agree. TF2 is probably the best FPS in the last decade and deserves success on PC, which is objectively the best platform for the genre.

>>167216556
Hear hear

Fingers crossed they play things smart to get some kind of resurgence; far as I know the only big multiplayer shit coming out soon is For Honor, which is too different to be a competitor. Respawn just has to be smart and deploy a free weekend at an opportune time...

And the game is hurt so much by not being on Steam. I bet the average player base would be near double if the game was on steam, even if they'd still gone full retard and launched same week as BF1

>tfg - the fast general
>thread is this fucking slow

come on men and memers where you at

>>167217259
>And the game is hurt so much by not being on Steam.

Basically this. I think PC playerbase would AT LEAST double overnight.

Imagine a $20 weeklong sale after a free weekend.

TF2 is literally my first EA purchase in almost 15 years - and unsurprisingly, they're the biggest problem with the game ba-rnone.

>>167218167
Post smol and cute pilots

>>167218203
It going on steam would save the game, even without a deep sale. And it'll never happen, even though EA would end up making more in the long run. Pisses me off to no end

>>167218557
At this point it would be a blow to EA's already shitty image, they think it would show that they are giving up on their own platform

>>167218557

I think a $20 sale would net PC an average of 10k players in under a month. And while that's still less than consoles, it's MORE than enough for a good couple years of steady play on all game modes.

>>167218702

The game is for sure good enough mechanically to hook players from other shooters, hell it made me abandon BF1 because I only got that to fill the CoD hole that was left by me not falling for another micro transaction dress up party. It to a lesser extent made me chill on Overwatch too, but more because Comp is a joke on console because Top 500 is made up of 50players stacking and smurfing just clogging the leaderboard.

Tifa2 enables my lust for hard-carrying teams and F A S T twitchy shooters. It helps that I get a massive throbbing lob on every time a mech game comes about.

>>167218702
I assume you mean a $20 sale were the game on steam?

Because I feel like a $20 sale on origin wouldn't help much as people wouldn't even fucking know about it

Only found out about the current sale because I decided to buy the game last week off of a friend's rec, went to the origin store intending to pay full price, and it just happened to be on sale...

No use whining as they'll never put it on steam. I just hope that if a 3rd gets made they release it at a smarter time

>>167218919
Yeah there are definitely people who would switch to tf2 if they just give it a chance. It took me months to give tf2 a chance. I've only been playing it 3 weeks and in that time I've eased up on my other MP fixes and it got me to straight-up uninstall Overwatch

Aim it like a hitscan weapon at close/medium ranges, the rockets are pretty fast. Also splash damage.

This is also my tacticool high speed low drag class. I tend to just saturate the area they will be in and they run into it and they die and then type salt.

>>167224725
I fucking hate the smoke trail it leaves so I mostly relegate it to AT-duty with Amped Weapons while using a pistol for pilots. It is the best Grenadier weapon for dealing with titans bar none.

>>167224556
I really want to like the Cold War but the mag size and reload time are so bad, I have to run extended mag and speed reload, which means I can't go Tactikill, which means I can't go fast as often. It still takes at least one full shot to kill a single pilot, it shouldn't have less ammo than the EPG.

if you keep at it, youll get used to it like any other weapon. it took me to around weapon level 14 or so until i felt i was "good" with it. by time i regened it, it felt as natural as using a CAR.
youll learn how to mitigate the slowness of the windup and how to better aim the projectiles in time.

help me make less blurry webms

>>167229594
Go lower than 720, like 600. make sure you turn it down to 30fps

>>167229594
What are you using to make them, and what settings?

Tweak your quality setting and bitrates first. With how small pilots can appear on screen, you want stable frame rates and you also don't want to reduce resolution to where you can't see them at all.

https://wiki.installgentoo.com/index.php/WebM. That gives a few notes about what kind of things can be tweaked when converting to webm. I don't know if or what program you're using but if there's some kind of settings you can tweak before you run it, it's good to know what everything means.

>>167229637
will try cranking res down, and that's on 30fps i think

>>167229849
uhh the pipeline was OBS -> .flv -> WebM for Bakas

2000 bitrate, x264 on Medium, 1080p native downscaled to 720p and 30fps on OBS.

i didnt really touch anything on the webm converter except to clip the video and rename it. besides downscaling res even further in the converter or maybe upping bitrate in OBS, any suggestions?

>>167230350
You absolutely need increased bit rate if you want it sharper. Like the other anon said, you can probably turn resolution down at least a tad that will give you more leeway on file size for better bitrate. Try to leave most of the tweaking for the end when you use the WebM. Don't alter the source file you're converting unless you hit a dead end.

>>167230790
Should I increase bitrate in OBS then? 2500? Or even higher?

Does fast reload and extra ammo for L Star affect the timing of overheating?

figured out a way to keep crosshair elements onscreen; just remove the "adsFrac player_zoomFrac" arguments from the defaults
here's this one for the mastiff if anyone wants it http://pastebin.com/VcyT31KF

mostly gonna be using this for titan crosshairs, can finally get the wingman dot onto them now

>>167236434
yeah, faster battery replacement and more shots before overheating respectively

>>167236434
Fast Reload only speeds up the hard empty reload. It doesn't affect cooldown.

Extra Ammo increases the capacity from 35 to 40 shots, but doesn't alter anything else. The L-STAR will always regen 9 shots per second following a 0.6 second delay after releasing the trigger.

Just bought the game during sale on xbone and marathon the story mode on master difficulty. Fantastic game.
Might as well go for those 5 last achievements. Already have tf1 100% years ago

You can take the screenshot with cortana and then upload it here off your pc or phone instead of taking a picture of your tv.

>>167239164

Whack that mic on.

Hey Cortana. Take a screenshot.

It's why I have to play Tifa2 in a solo party chat so I don't have to suffer the embarrassment of saying such a cringe phrase over actual comms. God forbid I need to record a clip when I'm in a TFG stack.

>>167239149
nope
they didn't care in titanfall 1, i doubt they will now
hell, it was never even mentioned beyond one line about "people already opened the vpks" in a launch stream event, respawn very much likes to pretend they have everything 100% under control and locked down regardless of how true it is

>>167239212

What achievements you missing? I would recommend a guide for helmets, to keep track if nothing else.

>>167239164
Double tap the Xbox button in the center of your controller. Hit Y for screenshot, X for record.
