Yeah, I read that wrong. edited
Anyone fell like you level up too quickly? Maybe it slows down a later levels, but my first night I was level 24 after something like 28 games. And what benefit is there to prestiging?
Probably the most useful perk/gear there is actually
Really, don't. It's a waste.
For some reason I was under the impression that even suppressed, you'd show up (briefly) on the map and fade away quickly.
I guess it just makes it even more imperative to move.
LOL at the people thinking the 360 version would look the same and run the same as the XB1 version

Finally finished the campaign! Man why did they even other?
Yeah, you're right. I don't even use it myself, but I forget what else I used instead.
Melee a Titan from the front when it's in the "doomed" state (the hp bar is yellow black).
Their Titan has to be doomed and you have to punch them. You can tell because their health bar goes stripped yellow and black.
Melee when the enemy titan is doomed.

I hardly ever rip the enemy pilot out since I assume they're going to go nuclear.
It's pretty clear when they go nuclear all glowy and that sound effect.
Only one time has this happened to me, and I thought it was a glitch.

I don't know who would spend $10 on something that actually disappears once you die.
If EA fully owned Respawn I could see them trying something like that.. but thankfully they are just the publisher.
Yeah I just like having the distance I suppose.. haven't really gotten a feel for the minimum safe distance for the nuke perk. Sometimes I'll be what feels miles away and still die from it.
Even if they do, there is more than enough time to get some distance.
A big missed opportunity IMO. I feel they could have paved the ground for multiplayer-focused campaigns, but instead we got a convoluted story wrapper on top of normal multiplayer modes. I love the game, but hope they try harder with multiplayer campaign in the sequel(s).
Yeah, no need to be afraid.
Same here, but reacting and running seems to work well enough.

Is there a way to unlock the FOV or is 90 the max?
There's nothing they really could have done though. Imagine if the only way to progress through the campaign is if you won each match? How frustrating would that have been.

Just tried out the G2A4 for the first time and really like it. Love the iron sights on it.
I played a fair bit of domination today, was a lot of fun. The challenges remind me of Jetpac joyride, a very smart way to keep you pushing on for that next fix of a bar filling up.
Unlocked satchel charges, they're my new favourite now, both for protecting hard points and slapping onto titans while rodeoing. Although I wish there was a separate button to detonate them - I use the mod that gives you extra charges, but I want to drop one then switch to a weapon. But then I can't bring back the detonator without throwing another charge
Should I be using each of the weapons that unlock to show up new challenges btw?

Extra explosives or power cell?
They've already stated a bunch of times, they won't do that with burn cards.

really hope 360 version isn't 30fps :\
Yeah, she's awesome. And she used to work on X-Play with the Sess, that's where I first knew her from. She co-hosted the podcast.

Inching towards level 50 now, just a few to go. First time I'll ever have 'prestiged' in a game like this. Titanfall is crack.

Man, the GameFly deal for $47.99 doesn't work any more. Any other places to buy for less than retail at the moment?

I've never used satchel charges myself but I did see a loading screen tip that said you can detonate them by double tapping X (Xbox One).
Not sure if that's a solution to your problem though since, as I said, I've never actually used them but figured I'd share that in case it helps.
Gen5 will make you rip your hair out - "kill 50 ejecting pilots"...
I'm gen3 and have 5 of that type in total so far... (and they won't count as challenges are reset)
You can detonate them by tapping X a few times. Not sure what it is if you're on PC.
What I haven't messed with much is infinite satchel burn cards, since you can still throw more before detonating. I'm not sure if it replaces set ones or if you can seriously set up massive explosions.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH! I knew the name Abbie Heppe was familar, but I could never place it.
Aw man, that's great. Titanfall is great you guys!
How are you Gen 3 already? There aren't enough hours it the day...
She gave Metroid: Other M one of the lowest reviews at the time, and now it's one that I think most people agree with.
Acoq the sniper and you have almost as good rof and lot more damage
played 30h since monday afternoon CET. Up until now it isn't really hard. I think Gen5->6 will be the first and probably only real cockblock.
More like getting your dick cut off. Gen 4 was obnoxious but at least it was reasonable. They need to change the requirement otherwise boosting lobbies for everyone.
I like how it forces you to take a bit of a risk when you use them. You might not even get to use that fancy Amped Anti-Titan weapon if you can't get over there. If you could trigger them conditionally you could do some pretty broken stuff like waiting on popping Prosthetic Legs till you successfully grab a flag CTF or chaining together core charges on an Ogre.
That said, wrecking stuff with the Amped Anti-Titan weapons is a blast. I especially like the sidewinder with the biggest clip ever.

Yeah, on PC you double-tap E to do this. I pile them up on a hardpoint, go somewhere else, and if I see it's being taken, I quite often get a free kill.

This is the best series of events to pull off in Attrition, and the pilot must feel really stupid.

3-6 seem to have the stupid challenges and rest are decent.

Guys, if you've gotten up to Gen 5 in the first three days of this game being out, I don't think killing ejecting pilots will take that long for you.
I'm watching TheRace on twitch right now - they are trying this challenge and it seems you are correct.
I got 5 in 30h... let's assume I can double the rate if I'm trying... that's 150h for that challenge - i could level 1-50 10 times in 150h...
