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.

He also included a secret phase-shift animation in the Effect and Cause campaign level. They talk about it in their dev-plays video http://youtube.com/watch?v=OW_nq7i9n9g?t=619

Here's an attrition game with a Goon group from last night.

Also if I'm playing solo I'm usually playing LTS with pubs. Had a game where we came back from 0 - 2. Ended up with over 100k in damage dealth.

There's also some realllly bad North Star pub gameplay in the first few minutes. It was hard to watch.

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.

Hmmm this has not been my experience. More like 1/10 matches at worst.

That's crazy. It must be server related then. I'm pretty much back to just playing in groups again anyways. it was just this weird weekend where I was a total TF2 fiend and no one was playing, so I just dumped like 10 hours of solo play in and I think I could count all of the times I didn't get dumped in the middle of a match on one hand.

I bought a copy of Doom off PSN because it was £10 and I'm playing it. Titanfall has completely spoiled me, I can see that Doom is a fun game but the fact I can't bounce all over the place like a bunny on amphetamines makes me a little sad. GOTTA GO FAST.

Just going to chime in too since I almost exclusively play solo due to my times I can actually play. I'd say 40% of my matches are in progress but almost all of those are when the match has barely started. I'd like to play with goons this weekend though.

The double jump boots solve this problem pretty well

Doom's multiplayer was actually lots of fun, it's a shame it fizzled out so fast, especially since id/Bethesda did seem to support it pretty well with updates and new modes and such.

It seems to break down to an ace on each team and everyone else is cannon fodder. Unless you randomly get matched against a party, then everyone is cannon fodder. If I do too well for a couple rounds it bumps me into a skill teir with navy SEALS who are playing for their children's lives.

People get too obsessed with killing pilots, even when they're demonstrably outclassed and hemorrhaging points by dying. There are many ways to get a good score and help your team win, one of them is to kill minions.

The matchmaking is really weird. If you do well it will keep putting you against progressively harder and harder teams or into inprogress matches that are already very lopsided until you lose. It seems once you lose one match it sets you back to zero and you get put into a match that you generally are completely over skilled in and it starts over. It sometimes feels like a nice ebb and flow but also can get boring.

I do come from the bias of comparing it to how the skill based matchmaking worked in Destiny worked last year. By comparison this system is super great and amazing.

Matchmaking is bad except when it decides that I'm the one good player on the team; losing a match has less of a sting when I have 150+ points :downs:

I was finally inspired to install Shadowplay because I have no evidence of the match on Glitch last night where I threw 2 frags one after the other and killed 5 people total :hellyeah:

e: I mean it speaks more to the other team's stupidity in clumping together in enclosed spaces than my actual skill with frags but it was still pretty :krad:

Shadowplay rules except for the times when it doesn't turn on when I launch a game and then try to record cool clips and get nothing.

Chiming in on the solo play chat, yeah it's rough and frustrating. More often than not I'm teamed up with some really bad players against a stacked team. If I'm playing solo I'm usually playing LTS because it's a little easier to carry pub teams there. The frustration is real when I see the rest of the team using AI Chip though. :downs:


Side note, is the group chat on PS4 all Goons or did it start with a few goons and over time ended up with a bunch of randoms?


Also new FNN update featuring the new Monarch Titan and the remaining prime Titans.

Also confirmed (I don't think it was ever announced but heavily rumored, data scraped) Relic from Titanfall 1 is being added.

The A-Wall one has to be the pilot kicking his opponent through the wall, accelerating him off into the distance/gibbing him against an obstacle.

I was thinking dropping it under them and it gibbing them as it pops up but then it would be weird if it disappeared? Maybe popping it up, smashing someone against the front and picking up the thing causing it to retract or something.

Holopilot has to be like making a holo or two surround them and punching them I guess? :effort:

It could be a short animation of your opponent deftly shooting down two You's that turn out to be holograms as the camera rotates to reveal the real you right behind them, then a fast neck break or pistol execution.
