Blackwater Canal. Someone noticed right away we were fighting other goons and I just choked right off the bat and we all did terrible :lol: I think you killed me like 5 times.

If I'm thinking of the correct match, I kept camping in the tower by the bridge with my hemlock. I got executed for it :(

Haven't really posted a full game clip because Xbox only captures up to the last 5 minutes. Here's a game from last night on PS4 that I remembered to save.

Think his RL friends play on bone. That said, which console actually had the higher player pops? It was bone at release.

Mostly on Xbox because there are Goons (dare I say, close friends) on there that I've been playing with for quite sometime and I honestly the controller stick offset is a lot more comfortable for me.

Just make your own Network and adjust the happy hour to your liking. Double XP only counts for one game during the happy hour period, if you want to show solidarity just switch back to the other clan when you get your 2XP.




Also this happened the other night

Decided to mess around with random Titan load outs, then jumped into an LTS match. Didnt pay attention at the beginning of the match and only realized​ when we dropped in that I was in a Northstar, which I've played maybe a half dozen times.

That was not a good match.

Stay as far away and as invisible as possible, charge your gun, dash out, shoot, charge back behind cover. Repeat. Randomly fly up instead of popping horizontally. Win.

Goons are kind of better than your average pubbie. You just need experience but one solid goon like me can put pressure on the other team and give you support you need.

Cool, I'll have to try an intentional run with it instead of doing a panic mode "WHAT DOES THIS BUTTON DO" match.

I'm used to using Ion's laser for pilot murdering, but I couldn't hit a pilot to save my life with Northstar.

Still a long way to go but, is there any point on "regenerate" a gun? It gives a screen that displays lifetime XP but I don't think that I care for that to reset my progression on a weapon.

Weapons regen automatically and their progression never resets, even if you lose access to it after regening your pilot.

If you regen your character level at 50 you lose all your guns, just like in cod. But each gun also has levels and regenning the gun itself doesn't take away mods you've unlocked for that gun. Everything has numbers to make go up.

Also buying guns is relatively cheap so even by the first lv50 regen you should be able to have your favorite guns ready to go right off the bat.

I only "prestiged" in CoD because it gave extra loadout slots and that was the only thing I wanted. Anything useful for regen or just pure cosmetic items?

Not really, but again the various weapons and perks are pretty cheap and using the early guns again for a bit isn't a huge deal

Mostly for Gen skins, but the ability to permanently unlock weapons/abilites with credits makes regenerating relatively painless aside from having to redo a few classes.

Regenerating in this game is a whole of lot less painless than in TF1. Regen was locked away behind Regen Challenges such as specific Titan chasis executions (the bigger slower Ogre a bit of a pain to accomplish with) or prepatch 50 Gooser kills (which were a hell of a lot harder to come by with the old Titan weapons). Don't necessarily miss the regen challenges but they were a great way to break up your play style to try different loadouts, there was a regen challenge that required you to doom and destroy a Titan while rodeoing which proved to be slightly difficult because you had to stay on even after dooming until it was completely destroyed.

Been playing a lot with the Smart pistol lately and it's kind of a POS. It's awesome for clearing grunts but otherwise feels super underpowered. I also don't get why it still replaces your secondary until you die and imo you shouldn't lose it upon death since there are more powerful perk weapons that persist like the turrets. It's a shame because it's really fun to use but the TTK is abysmal. I almost always feel like I could do better with a normal gun and lose shootouts I wouldn't have lost with an smg or whatever.

Pretty hefty patch notes for tomorrow's DLC drop.

quote:

NEW CONTENT
New Map: Glitch
New Live Fire Map: Deck
New Faction: M.R.V.N.

Glitch 24/7: Get a feel for the new map by playing a variety of modes on just the Glitch map

Once one of the marked players are killed, the surviving Mark’s team is rewarded a point. After a few seconds, new Marks are chosen. First team to 10 kills wins.
Titan Brawl: Think of this as Team Deathmatch with just Titans. 5v5 mode with Titans only [no ejecting] and respawning. Each kill counts for 1 point and first team to 30 points wins. (this sounds awesome)
Iron Last Titan Standing: It's the Last Titan Standing you know and love with a few new rules. 5v5 with no ejecting and no batteries.

NEW FEATURES
Main Menu Update: We dressed things up a bit with new background videos, updates, and tiles with rad stuff we think you should check out
Increase Pilot Gen to 100
Added Live Fire mode to Private Match options
You can now choose between regular, Prime, or random for executions for Titans if you own the Prime Titan

MATCHMAKING AND NETWORK IMPROVEMENTS

Fixes to address parties occasionally getting split up
Players that join late to a party making it too large for the current playlist will now cancel matchmaking

GAME IMPROVEMENTS
The game will now remember Multiplayer as last played in Main Menu - no more accidentally selecting Single Player!
Removed sun flare for maps Colony, Exoplanet, Forwardbase Kodai
Gates, the 6/4 Faction Leader, now uses the campaign model

TITAN BALANCE
General
Titan Melee - Reduced area of effect for all Titans expect Ronin
Ronin
Fixed a bug with Sword Block not always blocking the intended amount of incoming damage

PILOT BALANCE
Arc Grenades
Arc Grenades now have only 1 charge

EVA
Now need to be closer to deal max damage
Slightly Increased spread to compensate

Reduced the near and very far damage of the Amped Devotion

Small increase to its base damage
Archer
Reduced missile tracking speed. It will still continue to track targets, but not to the extreme amount it has been since the last patch
Crosshairs
Crosshair dots no longer turn off when firing all assault rifles and SMGs
Fixed issue with the R101 where the reticle would disappear while cloaked

GAME MODE ADJUSTMENTS:

CTF
Added a 1st Half/2nd Half indicators to HUD for CTF
Fixed issue in CTF where the flag was unreturnable after being dropped by an enemy
Fixed a bug in CTF where the flag could be returned by dead players
Dropped flags will now drop more reliably in areas with low ceiling clearance

LTS
Hooked up the missing LTS VO line letting you know you’re the Last Titan Standing
Fixed an issue where players would see a black screen while waiting for players to connect. It now says “jumping to location” like other modes
Updated the player status HUD elements

MISC BUG FIXES
Fixed issue with tracking rockets missing the dropship
Fix for Scorch Nitro nose art:
Scorch and Scorch Prime now have different nose art for the “Firebrand”
Scorch Prime will keep the same “Demons” nose art

Fixed issue where the Blacksite Scorch Warpaint would not appear in first person
Fixed issue where Legion would spin and face opposite direction when performing his execution as an Auto Titan
Fixed a bug where ejecting during Legion’s Power Shot could leave you unable to melee
Fixes to 3rd person animation for some Titans
Fixed bug where a Pilot could not execute an enemy if their movement speed was reduced

PC SPECIFIC FIXES:
[PC] Fixed crash issue when switching from Crossfire to SLI
[PC] Fixed bug where top 3 player callsigns would overlap the chat box at the end of the match
