Yea, I was on the fence about a Pro but playing I think TF2 just sold me a console. I want to experience its full console glory

Okay so...
First match impressions:
- Tone is nice. I like her.
- My team sucked (I had 2431 whereas the next best player had 800....)
- Definitely a slower game than R1, I do not like slide hopping nor do I like the double jump killing all momentum
- Lack of music is sadface
There's no lack of polish here. It's just not R1. That's okay, I guess.
I just have to use Turbo Engine on my Titan because of how slow things are usually. Which means no Nuclear fun. It doesn't feel like this should be a trade-off honestly, it feels like a restriction. I'm unsure why Atlas build Titans were given only one dash default. Turbo Engine should have just been a faster recharge instead.

And why would I want them?
Anyone happen to know when Amazon sends out their digital codes? Is it when the game releases at midnightEST or is there no set time? Dying to play this shit man.

In sp or mp too?
Yea the toggle ADS is what really gets me. What KB/M player wouldn't be able to to press both mouse buttons at the same time???? Nobody likes toggle ADS so I don't see why it's a thing in this game.

Lol yeah definitely have to play it careful. Atleast its not a cheap 1HK. Feels like it gives you just enough time to react if you get hit.

I swear I read the pro doesn't improve multiplayer games.
Yes there is.
It's been the default in this group's PC games since the first CoD, calm down.
For Hold-to-ADS on PC Mouse:
Go to key bindings, and put MOUSE2 on "Aim | Modifer" instead of the default "Toggle Aim | Modifier".
...the option to turn off toggle ADS is literally above the ADS toggle keybind. You just have to rebind it.
As for the rest of the stuff, yeah, it's a mess, but I'm used to rebinding a bunch keys for MKB anyways.
Edit: ^Yeah, what that guy said!
Yeah I think it's time I pay halo another visit.
Been a while and I loved what I played when I did.
Only thing that drive me a bit mad was the.amount of quitting with no good solution.

I really want to get this on Xbox one is the game still 720p? I was hoping they would bump the resolution from the beta.
Attrition is...
Well... I don't find myself going to certain areas of the map to kill minions like in R1. The Minions are just... there.
Goosers are much easier to pull off (gifs soon)
The new Radar does not work with Attrition modes. I don't like the Destiny-style radar at all, but it really makes Minions jarring. They're just annoying parts of the game here whereas in R1 I adored them. I think I mostly feel the same from the Tech Test, outside of the fact that I really like Tone's weapon (the 40mm).
I've only played on one of the new maps and, while it was better, it seems like there is a fundamental difference between this game and the original.
I hope to play in a team with people who know what they're doing at some point.
In a way, I kinda wish R1 campaign style made its way here. I'm jumping into the Multiplayer at launch it feels like I'm playing a mode with no direction. Perhaps it's because the servers are still not so populated yet.
The Polygon review may have been written by a dude who can't play too well, but I feel like I agree with everything in it now.
Despite this fact... This is the only Multiplayer I hope to play in the foreseeable future.
EDIT: seriously, slide-hopping should not be the only way to move fast in this game.
It looks really nice to me. Their anti-aliasing solution is top-notch

Yea I'm an idiot. I was looking for it earlier and could not find it when it was right in front of me. I saw the crouch modifier but not the aim one that was right above the toggle lol. Thanks

It's not that you can't. It's that you don't want to have to think about it when you're snap aiming.

I would try Bounty Hunt. I kind of see why they picked it for the tech test now, it feels much more focused than attrition.
As for the slide hopping thing, you don't have to use it all the time. I don't, just when I need to get to or away from something really fast! When I'm just looking for things to shoot I slow down a lot and just use the normal wall running/jumping methods.

Alright, so:
-is bounty hunt better enough to be a good attrition replacement now? Seems like they made it more active. Is it the default playlist, or are people gravitating towards TDM/Skirmish?
-tell me CTF is good. I long for a good CTF

Let me put it this way.
Attrition is not all that in this version. Bounty Hunt is better than it was in the beta.

I think Counter Read (extra smoke) is super necessary for Tone, more so than an extra dash. She really can't protect herself against Rodeo well (though it is very easy to get the battery back because of Sonar lmao)

Haven't tried CTF yet but Bounty Hunt is really great. It feels very alive - 5v5 plus grunts and then you have titans and reapers dropping. Also the Bounty system encourages people to congregate and it becomes really fun when you have these three way fights between AI titans, enemy titans and then your titans. You have to juggle your attention and manage threats and when you do it right it's very satisfying.

Somewhere around halfway through the campaign
Kinda shocked at how much I'm enjoying it. Up until a few months ago I really didn't even care that this game had a campaign for some reason. If this keeps up, I suspect the Wolfenstein The New Order + DOOM 2016 recommendation will become a modern holy trinity.
