What's the best perk for tone in FD? Most of the titans seem to have ones I can write off but all of tone's seem really good. Double sonar has been working best for me so far

Sonar ping is the one, when you get his splasher 40mm rounds it means you mark multiple targets up with each. You may not be the final hit on titans but support wise you're doing better than any other titan on the field.

That an making GBS threads out missles in the amount you can with him is always funny, it makes Northstar's core look half arsed.

I managed to lock on 5 titans at once with tone on Rise. When I used R1 it was a loving Robotech missile barrage that even made the fps drop quite a bit for an instant. It was awesome because I instantly deleted two titans and damaged the other three.

I'd rather be a climbing ape than a big titty angel.



I lined up 8 titans with a flame core today. That was a good core.

I used to dominate on regular MP though, any mode. Now I'm a weak little pissbaby with reactions like molasses and aim like a tweaker. Better than a few weeks ago, but it's amazing how bad I am after only a few months off the game. Anyone else in [BRXT] European Goonion?

Co-op and Titan Brawl came along at a good time.


I don't think I'm bad at this game by any measure, I've platted it and put in hundreds of hours in MP, but the pilot game has surpassed me at this point and many of the players/teams that I get matched against after 8pm pst are unbelievably skilled. It's just the natural progression of a game like this.


I mostly play Titan Brawl now since it's slightly less twitch and more focused on monitoring your teammates positions/cooldowns etc.

Same. I still feel like I can get by allright, sometimes I do really well, but so many people who play at night have this basic level of twitch skill that is just not something I'm ever going to be able to learn. Luckily there are plenty of ways to offset it and my titan game is allright. But I find myself losing the dumbest shootouts a lot because I can't aim at all these guys bouncing all over the place and shooting me dead in the face.

Luckily this is a game that allows me to step on them/punch them with a giant robot once in a while which is a nice condolence .

It's ultimately to make money, so you know how that goes but it's actually pretty fun. Though, it does suck when you're up against a wallet warrior who's units are just way stronger than yours and you get Steamrolled. So far that hasn't happened often to me and I'm usually up against people with similar level units. Give it a go.
