What is everyone's go to Titan? I find myself prefering Legion right now. Might give Tone a try though.

Tone
Queen of slay
Reasons:
Lock on
Lock on rockets
Lots of lock on rockets
A shield that's up while you're firing
Tons of locking on rockets

Tone is my go to despite being a bit boring imo. Scorch is pretty cool too, but tone is just more versatile.

Player numbers on ps4 were showing 20k was really hoping to see more for such a great game
We have ONE of those games, and it's a remaster coming next week of a game from these fine folks. We have no new modern warfare games that focus on infantry combat.

Are there any extra executions you can unlock?
I wonder if they are going to change how titans are completely invulnerable to everything while they are in an execution animation. You can take Tone and shoot your sonar lock, and it won't even light up titans in the animation. Nothing affects them. In the original it was risky to go for the execution because you could get fucked up badly while ripping the pilot out. In this game there's literally zero downside. I don't understand.

Probably not because it looks cool and as both consoles have share functionality allowing anyone to pull them off with little risk is like free marketing

Yup. They can be selected in the character loadout menu.
Squad up for a few games imo. You can hold your own equipment wise compared to other people but not on experience and map layout. You can have the better set up but get stomped because the other person knows a better way to deal with you or attack you on a certain map.
It's cat and mouse as hell

Much harder than the first game. It's just brutal. Dying every 20 seconds. Everyone is so try-hard and I don't think there's any ranked matchmaking.

The MP progression system is good as fuck. Between player level, weapon levels, titan levels, and faction levels I'm almost always close to leveling something up. Not needing more than 10 of anything is way less intimidating than ranking up in CoD, checking the profile screen and seeing "10,000XP to next level" or something. Titanfall 2 is absolutely nailing the "one more match" feeling. Love it.

Does it mean I can't play with GAF if I'm not in a US data center?
Ronin is my most played but I feel like I perform better on average with Tone or Legion.
Depends on the map/mode, though. I like Northstar a lot on Homestead, Legion on complex/crash site(since everything is a tight ass hallway), stuff like that.
Good game. MP feels faster than the tech test. Having a real good time.
Still using Ion. I figure I'll use him until he's max level and then I want to try Tone. What are the max levels a titan and a gun can reach by the way?

Only played a couple of games on it, it's... okay...
Will need to try out some more, I guess. I'm not fond of natural-esque maps in this. Feels like urban structures give the most opportunity to use & abuse the mechanics.
I feel sorta locked into Tone. I love Ion, but I felt like I just wasn't having any measurable success with it. And I'm just garbage with Northstar, Scorch is just not built for Titan vs. Titan combat, and Legion (despite being undeniably badass) is just sooooo sloooooow. Wish we could use the default loadout from Campaign, but ce la vie.

How's Black Ops 3 / Halo 5 / Gears 4 doing on X1 right now? Really curious about the numbers there.
Agreed, just unlocked the perk that lets you sprint and fire, the name escapes me.. SO GOOD!

BountyHunt is so much fun. Playing with randoms though and constantly losing 
I don't like Homestead. That map is weird

you can change the datacentres
If someone invites you I think you end up into whatever data center they're in.
Honestly, it's something I wish all games had. Halo 5 was unplayable for me because it would put me (UK) in US servers to matchmake me, and it was unfair as fuck.

Wow, the campaign is really anime as fuck. They should have just took the extra step and made Jack Cooper a high school boy (or girl) who is forced to become a pilot because his father is fucking with him.
Also, I had no idea that Abbie Heppe left Respawn. I was wondering why they recast her character.

Looking at the X1 "Most Played" tab in the store(which is based off total hours played, not unique users, but still a good indicator) BLOPS 3 is right behind BF1 at number 2. Gears has been consistently in the top 5 since it came out, and Halo is at its usual spot hovering just out of the top 10. Titanfall 2 is at the bottom, wedged between Warframe and WWE 2K16. MCC is ahead of it.
At this point, Ronin. I love working with my team to take down enemy Titans, great for getting in their face and sowing chaos. Just have to be careful and smart about how you close the distance, if you even realistically can sometimes. Just fun to play. Ion is great all around, but doesn't fit my playstyle too well.

Not surprised you like Ronin, given your avatar. ;p Ill have to give him some more time, pretty much didnt use him at all in Campaign.

Fuuuuuuck time limits. Just played a game of BH against a full network, and they were ahead by a fuck ton. Then we cranked it up and really started coming back. The next wave is coming, and I know it is going to be last one. Then boom. Defeat. Fucking time limit. So the game ends with this score:
4716
4696
Respawn. Please god. Let a BH game end naturally. Why the tiny time limits. Having the opportunity to put away a full team and losing because of the time just killed my buzz for the night. What fucking nonsense.

How many people are playing the game on PC?
Premium skins pretty much. I believe they have their own sound effects, animations, etc.
