Antoine Silvere posted:Why they are waiting so long to show off the cool multiplayer is beyond me to GET HYPE, obviously? Is it me, or are the MP changes - I'm thinking specifically about the shield cores being something you get via rodeo (only?) - seem to be making it so you cannot take a Strider and the quad rockets and just dash from everyone after shooting rockets everywhere? that was my go-to "I need an MVP this round" strategy. well that and pubbing because getting MVP with you guys around lol, no how will I ever hit gen10 again

It's easier to get a beta build for a known hardware target like consoles, but this does make me laugh:quote:Also, because the single player story has some wonderful secrets that we really want to preserve for launch, we also have to worry about leaks. Our wonderfully curious PC players have proven in the past that they will dig out anything they can, and there's a risk that they could spoil some of our single player. "hey, what's the most polite way I can say you stupid fuckers always try to spoil everything by datamining and I hate that?" Reading between the lines it does seem pretty honest: "our console builds are further along than our PC ones, we don't want to take the time to build up a PC one right now, also gently caress you for datamining come on, Optimus Primebot's noble sacrifice must stay secret until the NDAs expire" like I'm not saying that's a good thing, but at least they're admitting it

yeah they're working on poo poo until the last minute, just like approximately every other major game made ever. Unless they also lock out pre-release PC review copies - i.e. trying to hide PC performance until first day of sales - I'm not really worried about it yet.

Oh, I know you were there, I just know I was #1 But you're right in general - I'm a big fan of corner camping with a sniper rifle being something that, effectively, gets punished at every turn. Good design move from Respawn then and I want to see it continue.

Antoine Silvere posted:If by depth you mean snipers you are 100% correct! yeah don't get me wrong, BF1 is fun and good but it's still a Battlefield game which you've probably played before five times. Or put another way: Titanfall has Tone, Battlefield has ten snipers on a ridgeline at all times. Advantage Titanfall. (I'm having a lot of fun with the BF1 beta but the whole $0 thing factors in pretty heavily)

Megaman's Jockstrap posted:poo poo, they removed Scorch's ability to burn rodeoing pilots off his back with his fire shield. I can sort of see why, since TF1 you took the electric smoke or nothing. On the other hand, having to think about which titan to take based on how likely you are to get rodeoed (e.g. a fairly tight map with lots of close quarters is rodeo heaven) would've been neat.

SUNKOS posted:That's more a map design issue. The first game was well balanced so every team could have max titans out and pilots still had plenty of areas where they were safe to fight in. Titanfall 2 really opened up the maps with a lot more open space for titans and less places for pilots to hide, with the trade off being that titans could no longer regenerate shields. Personally I liked how the first game handled everything because to the average player, titans in TF2 kinda feel like glass cannons, whereas it was easier to spend the whole match in one in the first game (your shields would keep regenerating). I spent the majority of at least one gen in titanfall 1 in one titan per match, every match. Strider and quad rocket, usually, just boosting all over the map and generally being the absolute worst kind of player because I was score farming for MVPs to regenerate. Never getting shot out because you could forever disengage wasn't ideal for the health of the game, so all in all TF2's probably a better approach even if I liked being able to stay in a single titan more or less forever in 1. One of those 'small sacrifice for me, big positive for everyone' kind of changes. if you want to stay in your titan forever, Frontier Defense is the mode. Perhaps not coincidentally I've played a lot more FD than any other mp. e: burning titan drop, satchel charging yourself, then burning map hack was one hell of a pro combo at making the other team absolutely hate you, though. And definitely same on missing some TF1 maps. Psion fucked around with this message at 22:43 on Jun 21, 2020 |

sigher posted:Yeah, I've played a good amount of Frontier Defense and I don't have a single Titan maxed out, hell I don't even think my highest level Titan is half way. It's a bit too grindy. aegis rank 20 is, assuming good play, I dunno, six-seven hours each? It's like going from zero to gen 6.0 but since you can stay in your titan for 4/5 waves if you're moderately careful you can rank up pretty fast. And some maps are just made for some titans, like Rise is basically feeding every long range titan XP like no other (very late edit: 6 to 8.5 is what I've got as a spread for zero to Aegis 20, depending on Titan. Scorch is my fastest, Monarch is my slowest.) Psion fucked around with this message at 06:35 on Aug 1, 2020 |

drrockso20 posted:Unless there's a ton of those loving flying drones, Scorch is pretty useless against those things, but then so is almost every Titan or Pilot weapon, it's amazing how deadly an enemy can be not because they deal a ton of damage but simply because how hard they are to actually kill with anything Flame shield or just mashing punch ruins drone swarms. Punching is best done from the side, flame shield you just walk in front and say hello. And if you're scorch you're probably MVPing every round so just buy a couple auto turrets and call it a day. the only titan better suited to deleting drones in FD, in my opinion, is a legion burning a smart core and that's kind of a waste of an ult, but all of them can do the melee clear. Flame shield is just perfect for it though. Psion fucked around with this message at 20:57 on May 11, 2021 |
