I just went on a 13+ Pilot kill streak with Tone. I had racked up a few kills before getting her but Tone destroyer the enemies. I was one shotting Pilots for fun with the 40mm cannon.
When this game clicks it is fantastic.

Damn GAF, the more I play the MP the more I love it. It's just so fucking good. Just started up the campaign too and it's surprisingly great. Very refreshing and well made so far.
Also got to say that the art direction in this game is really something else. I'd put it up there with CoD: Advanced Warfare as far as military sci-if goes. That's high praise from me.

Apparently not. I was wondering the same, but now you can see the actual number of players when you click find game. It's around 11k at the moment.

Ended up buying this and while I hated the tech test, the full game is brilliant. Suprised how much I'm enjoying it.

I really agree. I disliked the tech test a fair bit but the full game just works and I'm already kind of in love.

Marketing a game is a huge investment and this game isn't getting that MS marketing that it got for TF1. Expecting lower numbers even though I think this game feels more fun and satisfactory than BF/COD.
Ok, weird. I guess the default network is split up to different servers

I think it just shows the total (not for each play list)
Xbox One UK Server (if that matters?) sitting at 35k.
Thats pc. When you queue for a mode, it now shows how many people in YOUR region are in that mode
Example:
Titanfall 1 like Volume
8 - Sound Effects
Max - Dialogue Volume
6 - Music Volume
Max - Lobby Music Volume
Those with standard TV or stereo speakers, give these a try if you find it hard to hear callouts.
-----------
So here's my Loadout (Bounty Hunt):
Pilot
Stim + Gravity Star
EPG + Extra Ammo + Tactikill "Aka, Stim forever while I suck you into easy kills"
MGL + Extra Ammo + Speedloader
Power Cell
Kill Report
Titan
Legion
Overcore + Sensor Array "OP as fuck, you can get the Smart Core without needing to reload"
Dome Shield
Map Hack Boost (Soon to be Battery Back-up for extra shenanigans)
For Attrition I'll keep Map Hack and use a C.A.R. with Firestar instead
~ You can't use the 40mm the way you could before, barely take damage and kill Titans who think they have more health than they do.

So 35K in UK....
Ill assume PS4 US numbers are...twice as high?
I dont really need a high player count. I love Siege, which didnt have the highest number of players.
Im just curious.

I wonder if the matchmaking really takes Faction into account. Would picking something other than the default pit you against newbies more often?
I personally have a pretty bad connection but I'm getting almost perfect gameplay 90% of the time. Do you have packet loss? Check pingtest.net

35k is total number (not by region)

It's bad right?! I just dont get it. Really a shame. Hope it gets resolved. If not fuck this over to BF1.
Man you're lucky! Everyone i've been playing with and talking to is experiencing the same jank games. It such a shame its an amazing game. I'm sure Respawn will fix it. *fingers crossed*
Really loving the Pilot movement of this game. Slide-hopping is second nature, and my fears about the speed of this game were unfounded. Hip-firing accuracy is noticeably better, doing a lot to encourage player movement. Easy to rack-up parkour kills with a much wider choice of weapons now.

Someone above said so but Im wrong apparently

so, campaign is pretty awesome, can safely say that.
unfortunately i still hate the MP, just isn't the game i fell in love with, but that's fine.
glad others are enjoying it, but the slow movement and squishy titans just kill me.
little things like not being able to redirect your titan with a punch to get around corners, the battery game as opposed to shields, changed titan customization - all combines to create a game i just don't care for as much.
really happy for Respawn though, glad people are enjoying their game as i really love them guys and gals.

I feel like Ronin's actually more for ground units than Titans. You can certainly take Titans down with a bunch of flanking + Arc Wave, but it still always feels risky to commit with your sword core.
However, I've managed to completely wipe enemy teams with him when they're on foot, which is amazing. People don't expect the Phase Dash.

There don't seem to be any in MP. They're all over SP, though.
are you sure that it isn't YOUR movement that is slow?

I disagree

30 Pilot Kills and 200+ Attrition points.
I doubt I'll ever have a game that good again though to be honest!

I think I have to officially be done with the world of fast paced online shooters. Thought I would make it past 41 years old to be honest, but I am officially at a point I cannot fucking hang. And that is truly no fun. Dead last every single match I played. Did not depend on the mode either. One lone game I got second to last, and I think the player who got dead last was idle.
The reason I even picked it up was it was somehow a different experience when I played the beta. I could hang. I truly have no idea what happened between now and then. Perhaps Respawn tweaked the gameplay that much. Perhaps it was just dumb luck those 3 days during the beta.
Oh well, at least the SP seems decent.
Back to Battlefield, where I can hang. Wish I did not go digital.

It is; it unfortunately took longer to get going than the other platforms. It's open so it can hopefully fill up quickly over the weekend, and people not on the spreadsheet will be booted later.
Didn't you kill a whole team in that last BH game with one melee swing?
Also credit to the animators at Respawn, your phase/spin/slash stuff looked fucking awesome to watch.

lol, yes.
~900 hours in R1 on PC, i'm good, brah.
;p
like i said though, this is just my opinion, others seem to be unanimously enjoying it and that's great - nothing but happy for Respawn.
MP just ain't doing it for me personally, but the campaign has been a great romp so far.

If your gonna play the campaign do it on Master difficulty. You die very easily and you really need to take cover and keep moving.

The advocate network has 109m members. How is that possible?
So how does one get on the spreadsheet?

Did you guys get the scorch nitro bonus by redeeming a COMMs message? Thats what the EA site says to do but I have no message.
The link for it is in the second post of the OT, just quote to see it.
