This game might have the worst party/ lobby system I have ever seen in a game in my life.

Is there actually any way to keep playing with friends without ducking with menus?

So to those that have the 2x xp boost from the dew and doritos thing, just so you know:

:siren: It actually doubles you score in game meaning you can easily win any game with it enabled!:siren:

That's right, tf2 is a pay to win (eat/drink to win) game.

Is anyone else getting consistent crashing? I've had three crashes in three matches, usually as soon as my titan blows up.

What's your page file set to? With 16gb ram I had to change mine from 1gb to 4gb to stop it crashing.

There should be a geodesic dome made out lasers at the edge of the arenas so it looks like some crazy future blood sport and also you can wall run on them indefinitely as a way to zip around the outer edges. An idea if I was making this game

Not gonna lie, there aren't that many shooters that I play where I can have a crap first half of a match, and then go totally ham and win the entire second half.

I've been playing Tone as my Chassis and it just makes me wish they gave us Atlas Ogre and Strider titans with standard loadouts instead of "sorta but not really" versions.

Also, There is a disturbing lack of Spyglass in this game. I am Disappoint.

Tripwires are fun. I just started playing this game, and the first one I used got me a double kill. The big orange wire is easy to miss apparently.

People on PC seem to have gotten a LOT better at Titanfall than they were a few months after the original game launched. I used to be able to top the tables in most matches in the first few months of Titanfall being released. Tf2, on the other hand, sees me getting pretty much insta-killed whenever I see an enemy. I barely realise that they're on the screen at all sometimes before I'm dead.

Edit: I guess this might be the people that never stopped playing the original in the intervening years?

Oh for fucks sake, I've seen some games where one team is just making GBS threads on the other team and easily winning with more than double of the points, now this explains it.

Also, how do I claim my Doritos bullshit? I entered the codes on the site and unlocked stuff and linked my EA account and even got a Comms message about it in-game but I don't see anywhere in the game to actually claim it and none of it is unlocked.

I believe I am now no longer in the presence of nice people.


PC-wise, I'm rockin' the SMR and the Northstar Titan. The SMR feels good, in that it fires fuckin' rockets.

Northstar was recommended via some rear end in a top hat who haiku'd, and aside from not knowing how to use Traps, it's p alright. Railgun's a bit weird for me, though.

There are plenty of games where it's completely one sided without any double xp stuff

He is really good as a back line fire support. A charged shot to a titan weak point absolutely fucks up the enemy titans. I think it takes away like half the health of a Scorch.

It is time based. The AI waves get stronger as the game progresses.

Yeah don't try to shoot reapers without an anti Titan weapon. Ideally kill them when you are in a Titan and they will be cannon fodder.

Tonight my west coast region had around 600 people in the Hardpoint queue. There was only 18 in Variety though so I just stuck with Hardpoint, didn't try others.

Time to kill is absurdly short in Titanfall 2 and the maps are... weird.

Happy Hour was giving 2-5 extra marks a match and makes you level up so much faster.

The Devotion LMG is so much better than the Spitfire. Spitfire can fire for much longer but can't hit poo poo.

Tone is hilariously better than the other Titans and a team spamming sonar is almost unbeatable.

But I still don't really care because the other Titans are still so fun to dick around in.

Devotion is also very high on the 'incredibly satisfying to use' scale.
