Why do I hate the Volt so much lol? Can't go away from the Alt.
Depends how powershot works. Do you get two blasts for each shot or is it just a second use with its own separate power up?
the volt utterly destroys the alternator. the volt is so ridiculous it's banned from PC tourny play.
I support the way you guys are doing it. Strictly keeping everything separate. Also, any chance of Titan OS voices coming?
I want Trump and Bernie.
And that Not-Arnold, but sounds like him guy from the Campaign.
Ah, somehow I missed that. Interesting - I've always preferred the single shot.
Hmm, that's interesting. I've been having a lot of success with the Alt.
Volt is just super stable long range, I can control it way more than the Alternator
Does it have a vertical recoil pattern?
That'd be funny, but I'd settle for Russian or Japanese voice packs lol
Softball and EPG are fun as hell, but I see their value greatly diminish heavily vs highly mobile pilots on PC, is there some aim assist mojo with the softball? (I could simply be shit with it too)
2 softball shots kills a pilot easily. you just have to be above them most of the time, gotta do that top notch parkour mobility.
I take it you never saw Overwatch threads during the summer event.

I don't know, it's incredible. It may be just barely under the alternator at close range but it has literally double the range/accuracy.

Well that's the campaign done. Really good
Second best this year of its kind. Best goes to doom.
DLC news is good. Rather have game prices stay stable, free DLC and have things like skins purchasable. With how much games cost you gotta give em sone way to make money. I only dont like RNG skin boxes but this is straight up buy what you want so im cool with that.

All that guy wants to do is bitch and insult people. If he's not bitching about Cloak he's bitching about DLC or whatever. I quit this thread because of how grating it is then I decided that was the wrong move and it's better to just use the forum's ignore function.
Haven't played IW which is why I said "nearly" but Black Ops 3 this gen was absolutely fine and whilst Siege has had its share of issues, at least it actually lets me play the game so it's more than fair that I call this the worst. Also, if you give it a quick Google, you'll see it's affecting a vast amount of players but I suppose it's the typical GAF drive-by "if it's not happening to me, it's not happening at all." posting attitude.
Nice thing about this game is that its well balanced for getting slaughtered. You can respawn instantly, and still kill stuff and get titans while getting wrecked.
Some of my highest scoring games i felt like i was dying every 5 seconds, actually.
There are some rage inducing deaths (like getting killed by turrets or people cloak canping the bank) but overall its less frustrating than getting wrecked in say Halo.
Softball looks fun - I should experiment with builds.
On paper it seems better, but I guess it's best to not change what's broken. Might give it another go this weekend.

Well charges usually mean you fire it once expending one charge, then you can fire it again at a separate time expending the second charge. The first charge can recharge during that time in between the first and second charge firing. It is similar to how stuff like Phase Shift for pilots work.

EPG has a place but it really hurts when people are just camping on roof tops or long sight-line maps.

I don't mean that they're not a real, valued part of the game. But having them (or not) won't ever decide a match or leave an engagement unbalanced. If you see someone with a cool gold skin and think "oh I might want that", that's healthy. If you see them with a Super Flatline With Infinite Missiles Only $3 This Weekend Act Now, you'd throw that stupid game away.
...also, and more realistically; this being a competitive MP game, it's already a giant and ongoing challenge to balance weapons, abilities, and titans in this game. Once there's an artificial line between "stock" weapons and "paid" ones... oh god. You'll have someone screaming that the Black Diamond Kraber does less damage to titans than the SMR, and you explain that yes but it's balanced by WELL FUCK YOU I PAID MONEY FOR IT DON'T TELL ME WHY YOU BROKE IT. #_#
So. If we went crazy and offered the Glorious Amazing Tone Gold paint job for $500 today... okay, that's dumb, and Respawn what are you doing, but at least it wouldn't ever come anywhere near MP's precious ecosystem.
Totally; and I appreciate that to embarrassing Zach-Braff-ian degrees. =)

All totally fair points. I definitely agree about not letting purchases encroach on the game like we're seeing with Infinite Warfare. It's cool to see dev thoughts on the whole "cosmetics are fine" DLC conversation.
I keep thinking I'm going to burn out on the game, but then get excited to play another round even though I've sunk more time into this than anything else this year. Ready to see those patch notes.

I think everyone on this forum gets it in regards to Cosmetic Paid Micro-transactions except for a few people that want to complain about everything. Keep up the good work and thanks for the interaction.
Now just tell us when the patch notes will drop!
Titan calls you a loser for ejecting, love it.

I don't see anyone complaining about the actual paid DLC, more that you can't also use credits to buy the occasional one or two. I mean it's going to be the hardcore of the hardcore that plays the game every day building up the credits, not like they'd be giving out the cosmetics to everyone, or even the majority.

Phase shift into enemy pilot to end the game. Yea, this game is a highlight reel waiting to happen.

When do you stop unlocking items for Titans? is it level 8?
disillusion386

Yes, level 8 unlocks the last kit. All of the items after that are skins.
Can still happen with a patch. I believe this is only the DLC thats hitting next week.

Cool, thanks.
I knew that was you. Crazy GT lol

We'll buy everything. Just keep making content for this phenomenonal game.

The hardcore are also the ones more likely to support the game or want those skins
Just because they play a lot doesnt mean they should get a free skin or two when those skins are considered premium enough to cost money
I dont see any reason why they should give away paid content on top of free gameplay content and Ill never understand why it's these games that get the brunt of this criticism (see also Siege)
Meanwhile, games lile COD charge you for maps, hurt the community and playlists, and then charge for weapons and rng crates on top of that.
I played a little Siege last night for the new patch/content and my god I felt so slow compared to this game. Especially the 3 armor operators.
I had a really tough time adjusting. It is always hard for me two move between two different FPS MP games at the same time.
Everything just feels so smooth and fluid in TF2, I love it.

She is by far the easiest to get a handle on the mechanics. You have the best defensive ability and probably the best core ability as her.
Hit something three times, fire rockets to do more dps and you have a sonar pulse to locate enemies behind cover.
There's no real learning curve to Tone. Just stand and bang, with good offensive and defensive capabilities.
That's what I call an easy kill
. Tone is very easy to play with, but it takes work to fully understand how to use her and be efficient (like with all Titans).

It's dumb that you can't rodeo or damage a Titan during an execution. If you're executing a Titan it's a risk you're willing to take.
What Titan would you recommend if I want to appear as a cool guy instead of "just another Tone" out there?
