Ularg posted:Just FYI, we still lost. Let me tell you the secret to winning bounty hunt every single time. Doesnt even require teammates that know what they are doing. Northstar with Nuke Eject. 1st round make drat sure you get your titan on grunts. Right before round 2, call it in. As the Bounty Titan is falling, shoot your cluster missile at your feet and stand in the Drop Shield. Tether the bounty titan and nuke it right away, eject right to the bank and put in the 600. You kill it in 20 seconds they dont even have time to set up a defense at the bank. Repeat the process on other Titan bounties.

Doesn't the drop shield disappear as soon as you do something more substantial than look around? Also gif or youtube please i am old and bad at imagining edit: which isn't to say that doesn't sound relatively airtight if you know where the bounty comes in vv haha, you even have a titan waiting for you afterward, that's awesome vv Inspector Hound fucked around with this message at 19:26 on Dec 23, 2016 |

It injures you if you stand in it, accelerating the process. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbcrGtnCH_U You can sort of see it work in the later stages of the game here. I stand right next to it and cluster missile myself. Then I also put myself between the bounty and the enemy fire so they hit me instead. It's all about getting yourself to the warning state so you can tether and nuke the bounty taking all that sweet cash for yourself. The bounties all have a set spawn points every round. And it works fantastic on the 1st bounty because he's always in the middle and nobody else has a titan.

I got matched with GODEMPERORTRUMPF and man I hope he doesn't show up in any more of my matches. I've noticed people being garbage poo poo heads and actually using the text chat more lately. Would hate for the game go from lovely silence to lovely gamer screaming matches.

That's pretty much they key to getting a lot of points at the beginning of bounty hunt. Just do everything in your power to kill as many grunts as you can. Don't even worry about the money although its a nice bonus if you can bank it, but that first drop is all about getting your Titan so you can dominate the upcoming bounty. It doesn't really matter which Titan. After that it evens out though and it's not going to win the whole round or anything. Bounty hunt is basically all about Titan domination. People get tunnel vision about keeping their money or stealing . The way to get a ton of points is to run around like a suicidal maniac that cares about nothing but having a Titan at all times. And the way to win is to have 5 people doing this.

This game is 50% off on Origin so I'm tempted to pick it up because it looks pretty good and reviews have been promising. What's the online community like for PC?

The PC player numbers are fine and you will never queue more than 60 seconds for a game of Attrition if you're on a decently populated datacentre.

When someone's being a dick I like to say "keep being an rear end in a top hat, drive more people out your dead game" Harsh (and sad) but it tends to make them indignant so hopefully it injects some small amount of humility into them Just for the record I love Titanfall 2. The playercount isn't great but it's enough to consistently get matches, just play it and enjoy. I kind of wish they didn't surface the numbers at all.

Am I right on this? Yes you are right. EU PC Goons hang out on the Reticulated Splines Discord (check the OP) and there is a group going most evenings for a few hours, then we take a break and some people form up again later. Sometimes we have enough people to form up 2 groups in the Discord.

I'm less concerned about winning on Bounty Hunt and more concerned with having fun on Bounty Hunt, which I tend to not. Winning and having fun are mutually exclusive, for me.

Why did they take away my precious AI on hardpoint. It was the game mode I most enjoyed hacking an army of specters on. Oh man, I took a look at my stats and I can't explain this KD spike at all:  I just don't know what happened.

RE: damaging yourself for nuclear ejection It's a good idea and I learned the hard way that unlike in T1, ejecting when you're not critical does not trigger the nuke I was very embarrassed because I managed to corner 2 Legions on Crash Site and nothing happened except they both goosed the poo poo out of me

I finally did it: I feel like I should be able to beat those other two, but looking at the ghosts they are legit faster than me on a base level. Like we're both wallrunning the first wall and it's faster. I basically have to abuse the slide hop but I don't know how to change directions mid-air while slide hopping on a controller.

What I always seem to run into are people using the cloaking device and hiding on a roof with a G2 or Hemlock with the lifesigns detector. You aren't supposed to camp in this game, jerks. Go wallrun

Your win percentage is nuts. Mine is like 54 percent. And basically it's if I'm in top 3 our team wins. If I'm not we lose.

Please ... you loving weird ninjas are basically black holes I have to avoid on the map, and when there's more than one of you on a team ... well. Failing that, if you've got tips other than "have better reflexes", links, whatever, I'd appereciate it. Jesus gently caress dude.

Have you tried going even faster?!? Just kidding, it's really to play with friends. The more people you have in your party the less likely the guy going 0 for 30 with no minion kills is on your team. We rarely roll with less than 5.
