If you like the wallrunning stuff in Titanfall the new glitch map is awesome

oh yeah and the new modes coming out look great too

quote:


Marked for Death: 6v6. One member of each team is Marked as targets and both teams must defend their target while trying to kill the other team’s target. 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.

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.

In the early stages you should remove all the soldiers you can from cities without pissing your cities off and put them into one army. It's a stopgap but it really helps. Also don't try to take on everyone just pick one dude to gently caress with and make sure you don't try to take that god damned island while it has a big rear end army+garrison to fight you.

edit : for rome anyways

I have owned pretty much every Total War game but I never get further than loving around in my own custom battles. I usually switch between trying to defend against a horde of the cheapest enemies using only siege weapons (trebuchets, catapults, cannons, etc) and then attacking with the conscripts against a fort. Ohh and in Empire Total War I would use the exploding rafts against the most expensive ships for the enemy.

Something must be broken in me because I can do the same type battles with small variations for hours like this.

focus on building your economy up first so you can support a lot of troops. send your agents out to discover new factions, and try to max out your trade agreements. if youre given a senate mission to take over a place or do a thing, bear in mind you dont actually have to, the only downside is you wont get the reward. try to fight as many of the battles as you can instead of auto resolving. unless youre complete poo poo at them, auto resolving will cost you a lot more men and youre never gonna get a heroic victory out of mashing that button

Yes, just like you used to be able to store hot water. It's very space-efficient for the MJ you store per tile and good as a stopgap until you get accumulators. Nuclear is a bitch though, I've had my circumfuges running for a day now and still don't have enough for fuel enrichment. My interest is mostly academic though since I run everything off the solar farms.

I spent an hour reading how to mod factorio, how a cooling tower could work in a boiler->steam generator system, doing math and mapping a preliminary a liquid piping system to cool the steam and pre-heat the water from the offshore pumps.

I'm working on mid to late game throughput problems now. Purple science is consuming most of my iron and steel. Ore isn't a problem since I have my first iron outpost set up in a field with 2.1 million units and a train running a loop. So right now I'm throwing steel furnaces and solar panels at my problems. Then it's going to be high tech science so I can get logistics turned on followed by rocket parts.

Of course this progression will be delayed by little side projects that end up taking hours. I'm pumping out express belts to upgrade transport. I don't need coal for anything but plastic now so I may convert those mining fields for liquefaction at some point. Plus the early factory parts at the top of the bus can be ripped up and replaced for space/efficiency concerns.

game can be kind of frustrating. i got the drop on some dude who was wandering around outside a building i was in. i was on the 2nd floor, had an m16 with acog and fired from a window. pumped a few rounds into him, he somehow lived as he lag slid into cover then popped right back out and instantly put like three rounds into my breadbasket. rip me
