Anyone else feel like legions shield could really use a nerf?

Alternately alternately, I know you use Tone mostly, so start packing Pulse Echo, makes locking on to people who have shields much easier. It's also awesome for groups of titans and is a great sneak and peek strat for Tone now that she's not super overpowered.

Also, fair reminder that Tone's core should always be fired into the sky first so it can hit Legion from the top. Firing it at most titans head on will waste half the damage potential on a regular basis.

Smart Core should probably bathe the area in front of Legion with red light or something, so you can't exit a building and be instantly vaporized. Hearing a Legion firing isn't a cue because Legion are always firing all the time forever

Looks like someone datamined the execution animations for Tone Prime, Ronin Prime, and that possible new titan class. No skins yet, though.

They also were able to load up the new titan class in SP and test out the abilities and kit options.

Holy poo poo, the base Monarch execution is good. Tone Prime execution also owns.

Also the battery-stealing execution kit is going to be loving stupid. :allears:

e; Monarch is going to be either pure garbage or loving broken at launch, with that upgrade core. I think we can also look forward to a million bugs. :ohdear:

I'm definitely going to get killed a lot trying to Grand Theft Powercell other titans. Also that execution is the one you use in the campaign; Ash's half-scream right before BT smushed her is burned into my brain forever

I'm really glad I don't generally play this alone because it's a really aggressively miserable experience and I feel bad for people that do. You will literally never get in on a new game. You are just endlessly doomed to get dumped into half finished games, usually on a losing team.

I know most games will do that once but at least after that you will get into the groove of getting in on the start of a match, but not in TF2. Get ready for it to happen over and over and over.

I've been playing solo since I'm poo poo. I've never been dropped in mid-match, it's always been starting games, but Latin America servers have literally no players so I'm playing on NA servers at ~200 ping and getting completely destroyed by people slingshotting through the air, sliding out a window and popping me in the head before I even realise what's going on. v:shobon:v

I find sometimes playing in groups seems to put you against other parties more often then playing solo. Not that it doesnt happen anyways. Solo isn't that bad, it depends on who you are against. But people new to the series joining in now would have a rough time playing solo.

You might be thinking of the top. The rafters are definetly in play and they attract the worst kind of player like flies on poo poo.

Edit: Yup. Played about 25 rounds alone this weekend and didn't get in on the beginning of a single one. What a loving joke.

Being a greedy twat in Bounty Hunt with some pubs. 3299 probably my best score since the Nuke eject nerf. It's much harder to cheese everything now lol.

beanpolepeckerwood will appreciate this.

Edit: one more. Sorry for the full matches they were just Bounty Hunt goodness to the max. This is probably one of the funnest rounds of BH I've had in a long while. This one had me feeling like a god lol.

Had a few narrow escapes today. I kind of like Marked Man, but it's definitely dependent on what your teammates are doing.

I have no idea how this Ronin missed.

I think I hit every single button on my controller to get through this one.

Just about same here. Invincibility frames are a godsend for Ronin.

Hyper also snuck in a secret reload for the G2 (M1 Garand clip ping style). Not sure if there's been any confirmed secret reload animations.

I don't think I've ever gotten this reload but it's real subtle that I probably wouldn't notice.
