Photux: Sep 3, 2012; Funny then, that such darkness gives me hope

I wonder if the game would benefit from separate balancing for PC and consoles. For instance, it seems that cloak is very strong on consoles, presumably because the strong aim-assist doesn't work on cloaked players (and maybe sitting farther from the screen makes it more difficult to see cloaked players), but on PC it feels much less useful, mostly only good for hiding from titans. If there was separate balancing, cloak could be kept the same on PC but nerfed on consoles. Of course, they'd probably want to keep differences small, just changing numbers rather than mechanics like recloaking, but it would still be helpful. Overwatch did this at one point, nerfing one character's automatic sentries on console, as doing damage without having to aim is a lot more powerful when everyone is using controllers.

As part of the Tone adjustments, Ronin's Phase Dash and Phase Reflex now removes Tone's Lock-On markers.

I bought Titanfall 2 on PS4 from Amazon and I got a physical disc, so I don't know what to tell you.

If it's PC then EA just cheaped out on pressing a disc for you. lame.

depends, i have a lot of trouble aiming from a moving titan (ive always had trouble aiming from things that are moving when im not controlling them in games though), but if youre rocking an anti titan weapon that doesnt require too much accuracy you could act as an extra gun in titan vs titan engagements i guess

I rarely go for the dropship because if they have 2-3 titans that dropship is going down. Also he has an 81% winrate so he's evacced 20% of the time, since he only has ~250 losses. The rest of the time it probably wasn't even worth it to try.

It's still unusable RNG garbage that's just as likely to miss every shot as it is to land nothing but headshots. It's a bad gun until they change the way its recoil works.

Also Cloak is now Holo tier, :lol:
