The new kit is literally useless, keep your thermal shield enhancement.

You only said ticks were annoying. No biggie.I think our exchange blew it out of proportion . Good to know where you stand, overall. You should use R1>>>>>R2>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>everything else on console as a disclaimer, lol.

Very nice. I'd be pissed if I was that guy who spawned in your way again. Talk about shit luck.
The last two players I kill in this clip are the same two players I kill through the smoke with the double spray. A failure of the games spawn system, I guess, it could have, and should have spawned them a little further back..

Boom! Bitch-slapped!
Yeah I just noticed that, I thought the time had expired. Weird indeed
Also I just tried out both the gravity star and cold war and holy shit they're both awesome.
I've never seen it in Bounty hunt, and I've played for like 2h today on and off

I like the idea of both of them but suck with both.
Trying to figure out the best use case for Smart Core. It never crits on Titans as far as I can tell, so I'd rather be aiming manually against them. I have no problem manually killing or goosing single pilots either. It's amazing at quickly killing multiple pilots in a row, but whenever I come across that situation the pilots have usually broken LOS by the time the animation finishes. So I usually end up using it when (1) the enemy Titans are ignoring me and facing the other way so I can't get a crit anyway or (2) there's a mixed battlefield with pilots running around in the same field of view as Titans and I want to kill the pilots as quickly as possible so I can get back to shooting the Titans. Smart Core is so bad against other Titans that I have a hard time using it otherwise. Maybe I need to get better at activating it preemptively before I turn the corner and see a screen full of pilots. How do you guys use Smart Core?

They're best used in Bounty Hunt and Attrition, and you don't have to use them together.
People come into this thinking it's COD and then they realize it's not. It can be scary and i agree the matchmaking is bad. Respawn has never been able to put together a decent matchmaking system.
Sentries are the worst. This should be the next nerf. The fact that sentries are just now becoming a serious problem shows you the psychology behind shooters online. People will always gravitate towards the easiest cheapest way to increase their kill count. These are things i would assume developers would have picked up on by now. Here we are 15+ years after the dawn of FPS on consoles and developers still don't know how to prevent crap like this from proliferating throughout their games.
Smart core is good for when you get to shoot with little distraction. For example, in a big titan fight where you can use or two allies for cover, you can do a lot of damage. But yeah, it's kind of insane a Legion using his core loses a straight dps fight against a Tone just mindlessly going through her rotation.
Ya, I mean, we're not even level 10 and getting matched up with Regeneration 2-5 players. They know how the gamemodes and all the mechanics work. We're just figuring it out still and it is not fun doing that when the enemy is almost holding 3 flags on Amped Hardpoint or dominating Bounty Hunt or anything.. Not to speak of then having another 2-3 clueless persons playing alone in our team against very experienced players.
The game's fun and we're enjoying it when we get a good match but the moment you can already see the stomp beginning you just want to quit.
The sentry is bad just because it kind of kills the flow of the game. There's a lot of stuff already than can do Area Denial very well and the Sentry is just a pain in the ass extra that doesn't serve anyone's interest IMO.
Any time something is introduced intro MP during a design process i always assumed basic questions were asked
- Is it rewarding?
- Can it be abused?
- Does it promote movement?
- Does it break the flow of the game?
- Is the sentry turret fun? NO
- Is the sentry turret rewarding to use? NO
- Can the sentry turret be abused? YES
- Does the sentry turret promote movement? NO
- Does the sentry turret break the flow of the game? YES
I wish the stats page gave actually useful information instead of just being a rehash of the graphics from 1. K/D with weapon equipped, accuracy, headshot accuracy, shots per kill, average kills per minute, etc. Some other metrics would actually provide information as to how you're doing.
Averaging 180ish points per Attrition game today but can't get a win. New players, please, halp

You play more you will get better. Matchmaking is fine. That's how it's always been with new shooters. Also, the best weapons are unlocked early.
Lmao.
Keep at it, fellow pilot. Like others said, our pick it up quickly. Sometimes you're gonna wind up in a stomp but you can actually learn a lot from those. What are those players using, where are they attacking from, etc. A lot of useful info comes from those killcams.
Also, I joked about it the other day, but I actually won a 6 on 1 today. I took out 3 titans and the other started backing off as our team called more. The TTK of titan play is terrific. It doesn't matter who sees who first. If I outplay you, your titan is fucking scrap.

Are all maps playable in Attrition? Nearing Level 20 and haven't seen Black Water Canal once.
Also, AI is only in Attrition and Bounty Hunt, right? Loved Hardpoint in the first game but with the missing AI and the stupid amping (why would I want to camp a flag in this game?) it's not really fun anymore.

It's definitely not on PvP on Xbox. Homestead now is though.
I have to agree. The current method is one of the very few things in video games that makes me feel a degree of motion sickness.
Going first-person > third-person > first-person sequenced boot-up windows is too jarring. I could likely handle it if my eyes were able to just keep their attention fixed centre-screen without the third-person camera-spin in the midst of it all.

OH MY GOD! Ronin text you "See you space cowboy" in the bottom when you eject! Has that always been there?

It's only a pvp issue. Maybe they should take them out of pvp instead of balancing a game around one of the least played modes
Edit: Maybe removing all boosts from pvp would be better. More of a hardcore bare-bones mode. I would probably play it more if so. Remove radar too

Yeah, but it always varies. Sometimes it's just "protocol (3)" or whatever, but every now and then, it's freaking hilarious.
Never played the first one. Got not a single kill in my first match of trial.
But I really wanted to play that trial and probably gonna end up buying the game.
Anyone on PS4 wants to play with noob? I am in Europe and gonna play for about 2 hours or more since the post. If anyone wants to join, I'd love to play with gaffers!

Playing Angel City makes me really miss Overgrowth, Nexus, and Smuggler's Cove.
Seconded. And first person executions!
I was having pretty good luck with it last night while using the EVA-8. Not sure if that was because of the new players, though.
They added this in the last patch I think.
That reminds me, I need to start abusing the fact that Legion can shoot through friendly Titans with his primary (not the power shot). I think he's the only Titan that can do this.

Holo pilot needs to learn parkour, you can't use it while wall runining ....
Sword Core is awesome but you're guaranteed to take damage with it.
