TITANFALL 2 |G2.1| "Whatever The Fuck That Means"

The vibes in this thread are just awful. I wish we had a more positive OT or maybe a separate thread for constant bitching.

I love TTF2, but this is the wrong thread to express that.

Bummer.

Ok? but there's a lot of aggravating crap that needs to be hurried and adjusted. Yet, here we are in January with:

  • Sentry-turret that takes forever to destroy which can zone in on you killing you instantly
  • AR weapons with no drawbacks that pick you off in a blink of an eye from any range. Hemlok, Devotion, G2A.
  • A pilot ability that boosts weapons already OP while being bugged so you can't take it down. A-wall nonsense.
  • 1 Titan everyone seems to want to pick because it's the easiest and most powerful to use which could be fixed with one simple adjustment that has been ignored since launch. Just take away the sonar pulse painting markers already for christ sakes!
  • A Titan everyone wants to use but can't because it's shit to hit pilots with despite having no real defense of any kind. Northstar needs better pilot aim.
  • 9 maps, yes, just 9 maps and most of them felt designed for another game.
  • Matchmaking that in 100 games you may play 2 or 3 close ones that felt somewhat competitive.
  • A U.I that has a second page people seem to not know is there (the titanfall general player base suffers from some type of cognitive impairment) and sending the ONE playlist that the most die hard titanfall players care about to it's death by putting it there (CTF)

Besides the maps these other fixes could have been made already. The insistence to wait and see or small approaches to fixing some of the more glaring issues is a bit odd to me. An immediate fix to the sentry-turret could have come a long time ago. The screams of agony and anger from people in PVP dealing with turrets is both funny and disturbing. Why continue to piss people off and make them quit the game? I don't really understand it.

And how much more of this is going to be intriguing?

Walk behind it and destroy it with ONE punch. If you´re killed by the same turret twice you are an idiot.

AR weapons with no drawbacks that pick you off in a blink of an eye from any range

ARs are no match for my CAR in close quarters - Different play styles I guess.

1 Titan everyone seems to want to pick because it's the easiest and most powerful to use which could be fixed with one simple adjustment that has been ignored since launch.

I still see a great Titan variety in game.

A Titan everyone wants to use but can't because it's shit to hit pilots with despite having no real defense of any kind.

But good against other Titans...

9 maps, yes, just 9 maps and most of them felt designed for another game.

Bullshit.

Matchmaking that in 100 games you may play 2 or 3 close ones that felt somewhat competitive.

You´re carrying your team - sorry that you are good I guess?

A U.I that has a second page people seem to not know is there (the titanfall general player base suffers from some type of cognitive impairment) and sending the ONE playlist that the most die hard titanfall players care about to it's death by putting it there (CTF)

Weird assumption. I assume a lot of people simply don´t care for CTF in any game anymore.


Anyway, working on my ignore list to see if this thread might work for me.

Wow. Horrible thread indeed.
You really want me to go through what you blatantly took 0 thought into writing? Ok.

Yes, lets walk behind the gazillion sentry turrets placed in a pvp match when those turrets are now placed on choke spots and route cut off points. People should not have to spend the entire match seeking out and destroying turrets for their teammates. And you sure as hell can't count on your teammates doing it.

ARs are no match for my CAR in close quarters - Different play styles I guess.
Only that some AR's can actually kill you with no aim and only spraying (FLATLINE), or kill you like a shotgun in 1 burst (Hemlok) up close. And good luck playing hide and seek with a G2a on the outskirts of a map behind an A-wall. I also now exclusively run the CAR, and i am mobile as fuck. Majority of my deaths comes from a camper with one of the OP range weapons.

This isn't even an argument. Tone is the most used titan by a wide margin.

But good against other Titans...
But people don't want to just use Northstar in LTS.

Bullshit.
sigh, ok. i won't even bother.

without a bit of competitiveness people wont' stick around.

it was only 1 of 3 modes that survived in Titanfall 1. It's the only mode that you will regularly run into the better players that have put in the most time with the game. Plus, the other modes on the second page also suffer and have suffered.

They should allow you to get +5 score or something similar when you kill a turret. Because it seems like no one bothers to destroy it and let it kill their teammates.

This way it will make the turret a target instead of something you want to side step and will make the people who use it think more strategically or use another boost.

Would it really be that unprecedented if they just took Crash Site out of the rotation.

Or redesigned the map and saved the assets.

Or made it a 1/100 chance of getting it.

Or just took a bunch of the garbage geometry that keeps making it easy to get caught on shit.

Something.

I haven't played the game in a couple of weeks and everytime I think about playing again I think of this map and am just "nah". I reckon I've played that map at least twice as much as the 2nd highest map. It's always in rotation and you can go days without seeing some others.

Man I got invited to play with a fellow gaffer and a couple of other people that play this game way too seriously and it kinda bothered me. These are people that ONLY play with the people they deem good enough , and then go on a pub to play all while being on a mic and boasting about their 95% win rate......

What the hell is the point ? To tell yourself your awesome ? Why even play the game if you win 95 out of 100 times. I play with decent players, and get bored of the game when we win like 5 out of 6.

Also if ever play on a pub you are NEVER getting above 70%. I play bounty hunt almost exclusively and find games that ill lose while getting 3000 points.

I dunno also why do I play attrition crash site every time I try it
 
yeah you already mentioned that. maybe mention it a few more times to make sure we all know you mean it.
I was only implying that people should look past your continuous whining and enjoy the game, I did not say people should ignore YOU because I do acknowledge and agree with your concern but repeatedly saying so isn't going to make anyone but yourself feel better.

Sorry, but there is nothing that pisses me off more than those people that come in to say everything is fine and dandy while providing their superb coaching strategies on how to counter stuff that is obviously broken. As if nooooooo one at this point knows about kicking a turret from behind.

And if i come off whining it's because i'm growing impatient with the lack of update. I see first hand the population losing momentum, and not only the general population, but the people i never thought would put the game down this soon. That's worrisome.

Which system was this?

Nvm I see. I don't believe I've ever seen you on TitanGAF, are you in the other network?

Thread whining solves nothing. If you want to change the "vibes" or topic then try and do that.

This isn´t Thread whining. I´m not saying that this thread should not exist - I´m saying the tone is awful. Your post is a great example of that.

You're right

scnr ._.

Guys should I email Jay / Rayme and ask if someone can post a tiny bit in here, so the mood will calm down or is this asked too much?

I've noticed. It's typically PS4 players that hate the negative comments, and Xbox players that have something to say.

That's what happens with you ship a game that has problems the previous title didn't have :p

I'm up for PC/Xbox btw!

Btw. Here's a link for you

That's probably true (I didn't play the first Titanfall).

I don't actually hate the negative comments, but there comes a point where repeating the known issues and unbalanced/broken aspects of the game gets us nowhere. Respawn people are pretty active on GAF, and we know they check this thread. They're aware of these things so I think it's best if we just stay optimistic rather than constantly bringing the mood down in this thread.

I super agree.

The point of the hashtag is that this thread has a rule. Anyone can use it and we must all agree, as a community, to stop being negative for a bit (within reason I suppose).

We're segregated by being on different systems. Destiny OT was like 99% PS4 and if you were Xbox you'd get completely ignored.

OG Titanfall OT was a bit like a haven for MStans, so it was a lot easier to stay tight.

Borderline Son of Sam should never happen. No one should ever say a mode is full of scrub players.

So here's a cute .gif

After pretty much exclusively using Northstar for so long, it feels great to go back to Scorch. I'm no longer terrified of wandering Ronins

But you see the money an enemy is having on him (when you die I think...?)

It will deal with people who are carrying (and/or nuking) while giving the team more of an idea of "why" they are losing etc.

It'd also be more fun. In pub games, if you don't upload until the final wave it's super fun.

As a casual player of this game (play about 2-4 Attrition matches most days, slowly working my way through G2) I kinda wonder why I even follow this thread. I think unless you take this game pretty seriously these complaints don't even register. I get killed by all kinds of weapons, I see a variety of Titans, I can't even remember having a match where turrets were some kind of major issue. I still think the game is a blast.

That´s pretty much how I see it and probably why this thread is not working for me.

And that's the right way to see it.

There are issues but I think 90% of players do not notice them.
