Gadzooks! I'm terrified of this little child who is going to stab me with a knife. I must wrest the knife away from his control and therefore gain the upperhand.

Northstar clearly does as visible in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ekOw-FIZXg&t=40s
Gonna check his other titan videos to see if I can see the critical spot indicator on ones like Tone or Legion.

Edit:
"good" news! Aside from Scorch, they can all target and hit weak points like they did in TF1! :v:

If you want to get really mad go watch the polygon Doom 2016 footage from release day. It's comical really, people that get paid to review video games are objectively bad at playing video games.

Is that why the campaigns are always 5 hours...because they play them on Easy or Very Easy?

The collectables are all down an alternate path that you have to wall run to get there. They just didn't know how to do it!

So guess what, the PC Vanguard Edition is cheaper because it comes with the Standard Edition of the game and not the Deluxe Edition, so I ordered it on Origin anyway. :v:

Please don't engage the troll. This is a thread for TF not for being baited into discussing whether or not titanfall is representative of the LGBT community.

And in my book, for the record, bro-titans marrying bro-pilots is A-OK with me, if not preferable!

I was literally advocating what you said - talking about TF2 instead of complaining about the critical reception of 2014's Shadow of Mordor

I voted for Gundam. :smith:

This will be my first Titanfall experience. Ever since the single-player was revealed, this game has constantly reminded me of Vanquish, for some reason. Hearing that the campaign and overall gameplay is just as tight as that won me over. So I pre-ordered last night. :woop:

Do we have a network going? We should probably get one started!

I think I'm going to blast through the SP if I can unlock it early. Biggest thing I'm looking forward to is the slide because man I am bad at air strafing as a way to chain wall runs together.

The slide is pretty much the greatest thing. I abuse the gently caress out of it. It's so satisfying to realize you are about to lose a shootout just to slide right at them and shoot them in the balls to death.

Actually the grappling hook is the greatest thing but the slide is a close second.

Brink was good and I'm glad it pushed more FPS's to experiment with more freedom of movement. I don't think we'd have Titanfall without stuff like Brink and Mirror's Edge.

It needed to cook for a few more months and died due to a lovely launch rip

It took until they released the DLC (which was free for a limited time since they knew they hosed up so bad lol) but they sorted out the vast majority of the issues the game launched with (buggy graphics/networking, maps lacked verticality and alternate routes so became choke point camp fests, higher level players had better guns etc) but the game was dead by then so nobody knew

I didn't play it that much but that game came out in a time where you really couldn't get away with charging 60 dollars for a multiplayer only game. Even now it's hard sell unless you are Blizzard or something. See: Titanfall 1
