Yeah Droz and Davis are cool but MY GOD they need at least triple the voicelines for them. Also, i played Scorch today on Blackwater Canal. Hoky fuuuuuuuuuuuck Scorch fucks everything to death on that map. Just light up a choke and enjoy your two or three flame cores.

Lost my first FD match earlier today because the three other titans would rather Cluster around the harvester while I'm out running around like a single mother pressing all the buttons on my keyboard in the Monarch desperately trying to not get killed by nuke titans and mobs whilst shooting and punching mortar titans.

I just finished the fantastic press Q to time travel levels. This game's campaign is really great so far Am I ready for frontier defense or are there other mechanics/important skills to learn that don't come up until later?

Also, the campaign does introduce some characters from Frontier Defense technically. Everyone should play the campaign.

It's only like 6 hours long and it's good. Might as well just wrap it up before delving into MP.

Quick question, do primary weapons level up at all during Frontier Defense or only during regular MP games?

The campaign is fantastic and teach you the basics about movement, weapons and titan kits. At this point, there should be only two big franchises, and both published by EA, Battlefield and Titanfall since Call of Duty went to absolute poo poo but I guess that the screaming 13 year old are legion and it'll keep selling millions of copies.

AI kills don't level weapons up as fast as Pilot kills would. I know that, if you're good, Anti-Titan weapons will level up stupidly quick on later waves. I've mostly been using FD to get an attachment or two for every weapon so when I switch back to MP I can at least not be using iron sights.

Black Ops 3 was a great multiplayer game and I put almost as much time into it as TF1. But then again it feels like it owed a lot of its design to TF1.

There aren't really enough Grunts and Spectres to rank up primary guns. That or they should inflate the xp massively. The thunderbolt ranks up absurdly fast in fd.

Yeah my main complaint about FD is that it goes all titans so quickly. Not that I don't love titan gameplay but I think it should be a better balance between pilot and titan. It's like one wave of grunts for 2 minutes and there aren't even that many, then bo nothing but titans for the next 20 minutes.

I tried running grenadier weapons to give me an excuse to go out in later waves as a pilot with my titan on auto, but that didn't feel terribly effective. The grenadier weapons still kinda feel like jokes and enemy titans can casually one shot you. And cold war never stops being disappointing. chumbler fucked around with this message at 19:27 on Jul 30, 2017 |

It's been mentioned like 3 times on this page but Thunderbolt is beastly in FD. I've had decent success on some maps just parking my Enhanced Auto Titan in a good spot and throwing big blue beautiful balls down a lane all wave. I think you don't get any Core meter that way, though. Maybe. I need to pay more attention to that next time to confirm/deny.

A amped SMR hitting a weak point does a lot of work and you can hit the brain dead single file titans from a decent range with it

Is it a legit strat to buy batteries between rounds to heal teammates or am I just outing myself as a noob? None of the other options look good since I spend about 90% of my time in my Titan.

Anyone tried the SMR in F_D? I tried that weapon before before patch and wasn't impressed and now it tears everything apart even titans, it deals a poo poo ton of damage and I'm using it like an assault rifle against anything that moves.

This is gonna sound like I'm being snarky but I'm not. It has always done this. One of the greatest pleasure of the smr in attrition or f_d is just throwing a clip at a group of grunts or whatever and watching them turn into a fine mist. It's still sorta poo poo at range on anything smaller than a Titan. Less rocket rifle more rocket smg.

The Stryder titans are so squishy that nuke eject feels like the right choice. Obliterate a good 6 titans crowding around the harvester no problem. Northstar can be fun with the double tethers on maps without long narrow lanes, but on poo poo like Rise piercing shot is king. When doing the Nobody Goes Anywhere strategy you want to shoot the tethers up so they separate a bit and you don't end up with five tethers in a single reaper. I am still feeling out Tone, but I assume extra tracking rockets is the prime choice. That or extra sonar ping, but I am not sure if that extends the duration. Spit out your clip marking targets, spend 8 seconds firing missiles, be a pro and 2 mark your targets to finish off with the ping.

on the other hand, seeing a reaper get hit with like 4 tethers and an arc trap always cracks me up. is there a limit to how many tethers you can have out at a time? i know that people were talking up threat optics earlier in the thread but i've been having a lot of fun as northstar with dual tether traps just running around constantly and throwing out double tethers the second it comes off cooldown, but if im gonna be hitting the cap for # of tethers i might drop it in favour of something else..

Not so sure on the Cold War but I'd have to give it a go. the softball is pretty fun, and a lot more forgiving than the cold war. if you miss a single shot from the burst of the cold war then you wont kill any grunts (im pretty sure) and you'll have to wait for it to charge and fire again, whereas the softball you can just keep popping in their general direction

So close to beating the highest difficulty in FD last night  my ion is pretty high level and I don't feel like I'm terrible but dudes are racking up wayyyy more points than me. I suppose I am more in a supportive role since ofc no one wants to run across the map to kill mortar titans and poo poo but drat

Guillermus posted:https://discord.gg/n6KxWq For Northstar, piercing shot. AI titans love to walk single file. For Ion, I prefer zero point trip wire. It's great at removing spectres the moment they spawn and seems to build meter very quickly when hitting multiple titans. It saves your energy for your more important abilities.
