There's a lot of things wrong with tone but that splash damage from his gun as a pilot has to be at the top of the list.

ronin is probably my favourite titan for pilot hunting actually. the dash plus phase plus run speed means they have a hard time running away from you and the sword is way more devastating than the fist just because of the size of the area it hits, with the shotgun for getting people who are just out of reach. running around the map killing pilots, grunts and spectres while you make your way over to attack titan fights from the side/rear is great. also worth mentioning is that arc blade does something like half of a reapers health in damage so you can quickly kill them with that plus a couple of crit shotgun shots

It's amazing to me how many pilots jump right at titans just for me to liquefy them with a punch.

gently caress tone with a rock. It's a shame pilot V pilot is dead in Australia. Would love to try it.

I love the flatline and doubletake even though every one uses the hemlock or CAR...

The Titanfall prequel is looking like it's going for slightly slower gameplay.

Yeah, it's amazing how many people think they can get away with that before they realize that Titan melee actually tracks pilots if they are jumping/grappling right in front of you like that.

With Legion regen, it's time for Scorch. It's like all the speed of Legion while requiring you to work ten times harder to win.

There's an exclusive execution where you fill the enemy titans cockpit with mountain dew to drown the pilot or something

edit that's not true but it is an exclusive execution

The execution you can get from dewritos codes is a pilot execution where you stab them in the throat with your data knife thing. It's awesome and I'm glad my one code gave me that, although the ion skin would be neat too.

It really shouldn't have a glowing orange icon with a battery above their head. It makes it too easy...and I'm on console. On a pc I imagine whipping around and lasering them is 10x easier.

Agreed it's already super easy to nail pilots that took your battery,there's no need for a hud element that makes it even easier.

Honestly though bad players are just gonna get shot no matter what and good ones (or ones using low profile) are going to get away with it most of the time. Regardless of the orange icon.

I punch battery thieves of friendly titans, then step back and waggle my gun down towards the battery to indicate they should pick it up. Then they run away and I'm like "No! I will save you, idiot!" and hop out to pick it up and run after them. Then I die trying to chase them down.

This scene may sound like comical hyperbole but it has played out so many goddamn times. :ughh:

Also when dudes give me batteries I spin around to face them and waggle my gun to say thanks. Still waiting on the thumbsup DLC...

Titanfall 2 sorely needs a quick-command wheel. Just being able to pop stuff like "[PLAYER] NEEDS HELP", or "I NEED A BATTERY".

Emotes that also work in Titans would be fantastic too.

As a pilot I keep finding really great cover after I steal a battery then I forget about the indicator and tone's splash damage

I wish you could drop the battery, or hell, toss it away, maybe even weaponize it? If you shoot the battery it should explode.

Should have an arc grenade affect on the Titan you steal it from. I mean after all you just stole it's loving battery.

Yeah. If they're on the ball with their smoke or you had a bad landing and have to scramble a bunch on them you're going to be dead before you even get off of them.

Get rid of the orange box on the HUD and get rid of low profile.

Sort of related (due to how hard it is to jump off a titan sometimes if someone uses smoke) but if there was one single thing I would like to see added to this game it's a button I could hold down to not grab anything. Pilots are such unbelievably grabby fucks. I just want a button to ensure that I won't scale the Titan that runs out of nowhere in front of me, and makes it's so I don't start parkouring all over the place if I try to jump in a window at a weird angle.

I kind of get annoyed with people saying "HEy I need a battery someone help me out", because if anyone has a battery (at least in the goon groups I play in), it gets announced. If you're yelling that you need a battery and no one has a battery on them, it's not going to happen realistically and you come across kind of like a child. Throw yourself in front of that giant robot and put your life at risk so I can have a bit more health in my giant robot!

Supporting friendly titans is cool but really calling out that you have a battery and asking who needs it is far better than calling that you need one.

Hey, an enemy titan! I'll just grab on to that! *forever clip through it*

Hey, a direction I wish to go! *forever grab on to every friendly within 50 feet*

Of course nothing beats grabbing a battery, slamming it into a friendly, and then jumping away to find out you still have the battery because net code is really hard you guys.
