Anyone know why Swol got banned? Just realised he's not posted in a while.
I've been switching up my titans recently. I'm normally like 70% Ronin, 30% Tone. Ion is Ok actually. Can goose like a motherfucker with that hitscan 1HKO laser.
Still having trouble with survivability. Once other titans start dropping, I get taken out fast, and without nuclear eject, it takes me a while to get it back. Ronin I have like 90% uptime thanks to phase+nuke.
How can anyone enjoy playing as Tone? It must be so boring standing in the far corners of the map, hiding behind that pathetic shield. It annoys me that Respawn catered so much to players that want to camp at the edges of the map.

Who does that? The way to play Tone is aggressively, using your shield + flanking to tag as many Titans as you can with shoulder missles and eventually a Salvo Core. Not sitting around camping.
Flanking? Nah these guys go to the far reaches of the map and just sit there, it's infuriating.
I never see this... So I assume it's an attrition problem?
i would love a option to have the Titanfall 1 ost while you play MP
When I'm not using the Hamilton mixtape, this is what I do. I have the OST with Groove Music and I suspect it's also on Spotify for PS4.
Holy shit, I didn't think I'd run into anyone using Groove Music.When I'm not using the Hamilton mixtape, this is what I do. I have the OST with Groove Music and I suspect it's also on Spotify for PS4.
Respawn loves reddit more than us ;(
You say that, but it seems to me that on a per user basis you get way more attention from Rayme here than Reddit gets.
Also in terms of user base and being able to track feedback on an issue: there's no way around it, Reddit's just better at it than GAF is.
I see super high KDs never really working with super high winrates. I think there's a different way to play to game that I haven't seen.
Yeah, it's my favourite map. I almost like Complex for the same reason. lolI could play Drydock all day. It's pretty much the only [original] TF2 map that stacks up to the best TF1 maps IMO.
Angel City is still fun, but I can't remember the last time I saw anybody use anything other than a Hemlock, Devotion, G2A or Flatline on it. As such, the combat has become pretty one-note, with a lot of rotation around the roof-tops, and very little inside/outside movement in interiors - which, IMO, was a big part of what made that map so great in the original.
Eden and Exo are pretty good too.
I think super high winrates are often the result of partying up with other good players, and if you do that you'll be competing with them for kills which will drive your KDR down.
Finally dinged Gen 10.50 after about 140 hours of playtime. Final stats (PC, U.S. west coast):
Mostly attrition, mostly Ion, always phase shift, usually the EVA-8 or an SMG, usually extra battery.
I loved TF1 to death and consider it one of the best multiplayer FPS's I've ever played. That said, I've had even more fun with the sequel than I did in the original, owing to a number of improvements:
My only major complaint with TF2 is the maps, especially Crash Site and Complex being too Pilot-unfriendly (nothing new here). Everything else is a pretty minor quibble:
- Better hipfire accuracy on more weapons, making a mobile playstyle viable with more than just the CAR and EVA-8
- Shooting no longer gives away your exact position, which combines with the first point to make flanking much stronger
- Sliding
- Smart Pistol removed as a regular weapon
- TItans have character and unique playstyles (although I wish they had an extra dash by default)
- Rodeo is no longer a feast-or-famine mechanic where you either (a) have cluster or smoke and kill the pilot or (b) you straight up lose your titan or die getting out. Battery mechanic is much better IMO.
- Boosts still need some balancing work (extra battery and amped damage being way better than the rest) but they are healthier and far less swingy and than the burn cards (albeit sometimes less fun)
- Devotion is too strong but the pilot weapon balance is otherwise pretty good on PC. You see a wide variety of weapons.
- Tone's 40mm and Ion's laser shot should have a reduced hitbox vs Pilots. Tone's Salvo Core also probably needs further adjustment.
- Fun as they may be, most boosts can't compete with extra battery and amped damage.
- I miss the old menu music

When the update hits, I'll play with Xbox/PS4/PC TitanGAF if groups are going. I think I'll just take a break until then.
Crash Site is the only map that I can legit find no redeemable qualities about other than it looking nice on PS4Pro
Seriously, such fundamentally unfun/cluster of a map
Two things I like about that map.
1) Flanking at the start results in easy kills.
2) It's super easy to creep up on people in titans if you get the first fall.
That's it.
You know it! HahaJust an excuse to play Nioh.
Benchy is just bonkers

I want to see him play against GameSager or Frothy.

Yeah whenever I watch these videos the guys they are destroying are not using any of the movement mechanics. I notice it a lot in game when I have those big scoring rounds.Curious when he started going by Benchy. Never heard that name back in the TF1 days (his Origin handle is still the same as it has always been).
One thing I don't really like about a lot of these clips is that they are against players who are literally standing there doing nothing. ;

Djees these mp numbers are depressing
Also I really wanted to play but after getting thrown in crash 10* in a row I just turned it off.
