Titan model kits would be pretty sweet, especially if they're Gunpla-quality.

:stare: I'd so put those on a desk as decorations.

EA should throw money at LEGO and make those real, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

Doubt Lego would pick it up since Titanfall would probably be considered too violent, despite Lego's shift over the years. Get ready for Titanfall by Mega Bloks.

Clearly XIM players are actually the most skilled players because in actuality they're fighting the controls, rather than being coddled like controller players.

The game needs more executions based off tactical kit stuff.

I played a few games with Scorch last night after reading the tips here in this thread and I wrecked a whole bunch of people. I feel like he needs the dash to get out of trouble when hurling barrels at a group of titans, personally.

I definitely go for the dash option because it's so vital.

Personally as Scorch, going for executions gets me wrecked sooner than later, because it gives the enemies time to set up to burn you down afterwards, but it's so drat satisfying. Lately though, it's just started to hurt me more because the Titan self-destructs and while it's no nuke, it still takes off a chunk of health.

Yo I got a handful more BWW codes for the Ion nose art. They expire on Thursday I think. Doesn't work with prime Titan tho :(

Sure, I'll take one. Could use an excuse to take my Ion out again before I'm done with Scorch.

Edit: Thanks for the code.

It's probably a mix of buggy/unintended consequences. Just pick a loadout with stim or cloak and haul rear end out of there and within seconds your entire team will spawn on your rear end once the respawn code decides to pick a new point.

Cause it feels like an actual huge battle rather than shooting fish in a barrel, and its waves feel more organic, less Stop–Go.

And all without actually being a huge battle, like Battlefield games. Sure, BF is actually huge but literally everyone else in the game can and will shoot you dead. In Attrition, grunts and spectres aren't as immensely lethal as another player while still making it feel like it's bigger than it actually is.

I'm been trying nuke eject on Northstar and throwing down a tether before I nuke. Not much luck thus far, only one solid kill, and several where they got caught at the edge of the blast to get knocked down to doomed. Did have on hilarious kill where I melee'd someone as they were ejecting while I was falling back down from my own nuke eject. I need to figure out the tether trap some more before trying this again.

Well, that was...incredibly odd.

So I respawned in my Ronin, and right as the animation for spawning in finishes, I get crushed by a Reaper's warpfall. I did not know that could happen.

The real embarrassing one is when you aren't paying attention after barely surviving a firefight and end up getting melee'd to death by a grunt.

How about getting taken out by a spectre's exploding power pack? That you damaged.

Yeah, it's a mix of the map and using the Hemlok. If I'm using a hipfire SMG, I'll wall run a lot more than this.

While the campaign doesn't have as many, uh, static setpieces as Call of Duty, it sets you up for a lot of situations that are cool and badass and are driven by your combat prowess.

I'm definitely a fan of target optics, it makes it quite a bit easier for me to flick shot pilots and I like to combine it with double electric smoke for sniping through.

Stan Taylor posted:

BF1 for me was spawning in, spending thirty seconds running to the fight and dying from a sniper halfway across the map, with matches lasting like 20 to 30 minutes I think? I got both games at the same time and have forty hours in TiFa2 and three in BF1. Matches are ten minutes at most and essentially constant action. I've had like two or three ames where my team got poo poo on via spawn camping, and those were on one particular level with i guess a weird spawn setup.

Yeah, that's my big gripe with BF-style games in general. Conceptually I love them, big numbers of players to create the sense of being in a big battle. Only you'll tend to die a lot, and die like a bitch a lot. A lot of time you'll just get shot with no chance of shooting back or any idea where the shooter was. TF2's grunts takes the brunt of that abuse.

You only need to hold for pilot executions, not titans. And you can't execute during Sword Core.

What? Unless I'm remembering wrong, you can. You just have to use the melee button, instead of primary fire.

I tend to lack motivation to play for than the odd match or two these days, and I tend to play solo because of RL distractions pulling me away from the game. Still, may as well throw my PSN out there because my friends' schedules mean I barely get to play with them anymore: Selic_LL.

I've actually tried this a ton and never been able to pull it off, they're really aggressive with invisible walls that don't let Northstar hover anywhere another Titan can't get normally. But I would love to be proven wrong!

e: Although one time I chained flight core into nuclear eject and took out the whole drat enemy team, that felt pretty swell. If you nuclear eject while hovering as Northstar you just hang in the air, which is just another reason to run nuke on every Titan.

I've managed to do it on Complex once since I don't really play Northstar much after regenning it once. It's a fun titan but just not to my taste. Don't recall if I was just using hover or flight core, probably the latter since the other team lost.

You can totally just walk away from a nuke eject as a Scorch if you can immediately turn and can walk away. Just plain walking speed.

It's probably less than six months. People work fast on pumping out random erotica of the latest things.

Anyway. This is mostly my own experience but fighting at long-range with the L-star can be hilarious sometimes. People react as if you're also using a hitscan weapon while you can just dump enough shots and then run away/phase shift/etc. and they'll keep ducking in and out of cover and then die.
