What do you get for getting into the evacuation ship?

The incredible thrill and feeling of what it's like to be in an action movie--barely escaping doom at the last possible minute only to live to fight another day.

 

[Ozorov]

an extra merit point

Ah I see, thanks!

 

[Vincent Alexander]

an extra merit point

What I've always found odd is that you get an extra merit point for destroying the evac ship, but not for wiping the enemy team? Doesn't make much sense, unless I'm completely mis-remembering.

Exactly

I prefer phase shift to stim, but that's because I always feel the pressure to use stim well, and not waste it.

 

[TimeEffect]

Everyone should own a copy of TF2. Respawn, please, just toss out the patch notes for people to peruse over the weekend. The wait is killing us. C'mon reaper collision detection removal and execution bug fixes.

Yeah, please. This is literally all Im waiting for.

 

[Toa TAK]

Respawn should add back the title they had in the previous game "Get to the Chopper" when you get inside the evac dropship.

Honestly you should get more than the Merit point, its sooooooooo easy to blow up the evacuation ship this game. If the opponent has like 3 - 4 titans in any mode the ship is going down, match that with pilots firing as well you're as good as dead.

Even in the pilot only mode the ship goes down quickly.

Nuke Ejecting under or right next to the ship is my go-to move.

Echo what others have said in here - the turrets are far too OP for what they are

 

[dankir]

If you're a single titan in the evacuation that will certainly speed up the process, but you don't even need it anymore.

Bought on the PSN BF sale. I did my part. Stoked to hop on.

 

[Sojgat]

They're really not.

They're slow to track and only last for a minute. One melee to take it out, and then go kill the joker hanging around near it or just avoid the area temporarily.

People were bringing this up weeks ago and I've been counting the number of times I've been killed by one. I'm up to four. Every one my fault for playing carelessly.

 

[Alx]

I don't understand why people sit right next to their turret anyway (just killed one a few minutes ago, before destroying his turret). Isn't its whole point to get you free kills while you're busy doing your own business somewhere else on the map ?

 

[Zemm]

I wonder if the increase in cloak usage is because gamesager is running it pretty much 100% of the time now

 

[The Antitype]

The one [and let's be honest, probably only] time I go on a 15-kill streak in attrition, and GameDVR gives me the 'something went wrong, try again later' error. Fuck me. That was XBL showcase material.

I haven't used Phase Shift yet, and it is only because I've just about never had someone use Phase Shift on me and get out of a sticky situation. In many cases, I've been able to time an arc grenade and figure out their location as they come out, and they're just delaying their death. I'm sure there are some in here who use it better than the average joes I run into, but my observations have it looking garbage.

Phase shift is clutch for getting away. Get higher above them, around a corner, behind them or right in their face. You must not be playing decent players. Really good phase users are ghosts

 

[excaliburps]

If you're normally one of the first to drop a titan early in the match the titan battery boost in attrition and bounty hunt is the best boost out of all of them.

EDIT: what gif platform is the best? giphy only allows 10 second clips.

Yep, exactly why I use the battery boost as well.

I usually call in my Titan first in my team and just proceed to kill a ton of Pilots.

I wonder if the increase in cloak usage is because gamesager is running it pretty much 100% of the time now

Nah, I think it's mostly with people wanting to be able to move without being spotted, etc. I use it, but I do notice a lot of people use it as well. But the thing most players forget is, the tacticals all have different effectiveness depending on the map. I use Phase Shift and Stim now mostly and I love chasing down enemies with Stim.

I like Gamesager's vids, although he mostly plays Pilots vs Pilots. Possibly the best cocktail mix of gameplay for me in TF2 is the variation of gameplay and how different it is playing as a Pilot from a Titan. I enjoy both.

I'm gen4.42 and I'm still addicted to MP. People really, really need to try it to understand why a lot of people in this OT (and in GAF in general) are just loving TF2. Progression in it is also awesome. There's also one more camo, banner, etc. to unlock.

In case anyone's curious, PS4 players now at 23K! Woohoo! I know it's Black Friday and all, but this is very good news.

 

[Reckless Onion]

Pls Respawn, if you are reading this, no more maps like crash or complex.

 

[Chris1]

Black Friday seems to have helped this game out A LOT.

Currently 29K on XB1, numbers which haven't been seen since near launch at this time.

Pretty happy about it, the game didn't deserve the low sales. Hopefully people continue to buy it throughout the holiday.

 

[Radical Edward]

Echo what others have said in here - the turrets are far too OP for what they are

not even close. They are a boost if they get any weaker, no one will pick them. They aren't even difficult to kill and are ridiculously slow. Flank and punch, don't trade fire with them.

Nice. Had ps4 physical and traded to friend. Just picked up digital deluxe and it sucks waiting for it to download. How's the helmet? I wish i had the TF1 statue

 

[karma2578]

Got it in the HMV deal and played some mp tonight. So many moments, like having a pilot street shoot out at the feet of 2 titans slinging punches.. So cool

 

[Deleted member 286591]

I'm obsessed with this game. I can't stop thinking about it, when I'm not playing it I just wanna get back at it. Respawn pls.

That's a great point, they should change that.

I saw a little more than 23,000 people on PS4 just now. Hope the community continues to grow. Love this game.

 

[RobbieNick]

LOL The best "F-U" after losing to the other team. I waited for the evac ship to arrive as I was surrounded by enemy titans. I jump on a titan, yank out it's battery (dooming it) and then grapple onto the ship as it's about to warp away. Beautiful!

 

[Zemm]

Watching gamesagers stream and he's pretty good on PC with a controller, huge difference between his Xbox and PC gameplay though understandably.

 

[OdysseusVA]

Respawn duders, the FoV slide for consoles is in for sure, right? I would like to create a thread and source the tweet

 

[cooldawn]

I missed the £20 HMV deal so I ordered from my usual online retailer for £30. Expecting it early next week.

Looking forward to it.

I see a lot Overwatch and CoD players using controllers now, I think the KB&M dominance is over, pretty much parity between the 2 now (I play OW with a controller for example as its a lil bit easier)

 

[JaMarco]

You know what kit Tone needs next, an amped particle wall.

 

[lebowski4ever]

picked it up today for £20 from hmv. about theee hours in. really enjoying it. It feels so smooth.

 

[Dolobill]

Finally just finished the campaign. Wow, I didn't give the campaign enough credit. The campaign gets real cool starting around mission 5 and keeps up the pace.

 

[FStop7]

Amped particle wall that deducts points from the other team per hit.

 

[excaliburps]

Amped particle wall that deducts points from the other team per hit.

Cool but maybe sonar ping that affects the entire map as well? One Tone has now is kinda weak. :}

 

[The Last Wizard]

Every time I grab an enemy battery I can never get back to a friendly titan.

 

[megarockexe]

What is the point of the Phase Rewind boost? It's so stupid. Maybe I just don't "get" any of the phase shift moves. They're so disorienting and hard to use. You can rack up points like mad with the Smart Pistol, get more Titan defense, or wobbilly rewind 2 seconds for no reason. I don't get it.

 

[Zemm]

No way. KB&M will never lose that dominance over a controller. Like I said in my post, gamesager looks like a good player on PC, but he looks like he's using cheat mode on Xbox. The difference is day and night.

its personal preference most fo the time, some games do work a lot better on KB&M though

I love this game so much but man, making my top 10 GOTY list is going to be bruuuutal. So many amazing games this year.

 

[Sojgat]

I double dibbed and bought digital in the PS4 sale yesterday because I got sick of constantly swapping out the disc. Should've just gone digital in the first place, but I was unsure about the MP after the beta.

Edit: lol "dibbed" for fuck's sake. I need sleep.

 

[Zackat]

This one is on there easy for me. Fun, no filler campaign and great multiplayer.

only thing that is driving me crazy is no windowed fullscreen. Is there a way to force this somehow?
