I think the Spitfire LMG is the best weapon.
Well, that's annoying. Was looking at the achievements and saw the bar close to full on the faction ones and now I just have to go in guessing.
Holy shit Kydd, that's insane.
Yup, it sucks. Doubly so since you can't just pick a faction either.

Holy shit. I always wonder how people are so damn good at fps's. I struggle to maintain a 2.0

Boom! Bitch-slapped!
Fixed for me.

Sometimes I feel like I'm in the godamn matrix when I play this game. Perpetual Super Saiyan beast mode.

Damn bro thats amazing. Here I was thinking how good I am at the game.
Yes, we were playing today and encountered some hardcore campers. The k/d dick waving contest is annoying - especially when people play super conservatively and don't go for objectives. I like to keep my own stats high, but it is nice that stat sharing isnt huge in Titanfall.

Good God. And I was getting excited because my last 10 games against players went over 2.0 recently.
Luckily they have good point giveouts for doing objectives which seems to curb it a lot.
I do seem to be noticing more people try and camp within objectives...but it really just doesn't work well here, unless it's a really good wall cling spot.

Also, going for objectives gives you crazy XP, so I'm not sure why e-peen people aren't all over it, since levels are public and k/d is not. +500 for a single flag capture? +75 every few seconds for sitting on a hardpoint? Fire up a Fast Learner card with the latter...
After this, I'm done flexing my e-penis. Earlier I posted my Xbox One stats...here are my PC stats.
I don't play this on PC as much as I do on Xbox One though.
Holy crap man... that's impressive. I'm happy if I can maintain >1.0 K
lol.Sorry if you've already answered but what loadout do you typically use?
Beaten
And what Loadout do you use?
How do you guys get such insane K
Ratios?I wish I could figure it out. This preset looks great.would someone that is using SWEETFX with this game would someone tell me how I've tried and tried. it doesn't work
Thank you kind sir, downloading the deluxe edition and saved myself $35
De nada.

My Kills as Titan are so much lower proportionately than either Meow or Kydd; I think I actually have more as a Pilot. Whoops.
I probably need to spend more time in my Titan instead of letting the AI run it. And also more time hunting Pilots rather than going toe to toe with the other robots.

There's someone who reached Gen 10 already!

Mine's pretty even, but looking at the time ratio I'm obviously a pilot far longer. Seems to work out well.

My theory is that they play people like me.
I feel accomplished if I get a kill, much less worrying about my K/D ratio.

And Gaf is mentioned they love us <3

Yeah, Gaf said to reach Gen 10 you need 80-100 hours.
I noticed now lol edited it. But congrats on the first who reached gen 10! I am level 28 now and nothing near it at all.

Extraction is always so tense, deciding when you do or don't go without getting wiped out. Always the 1 hero sacrificing themselves for the team in their Titan like the scene from Matrix Revolutions. :')

Is there a burn card that makes you not show up on radar? I watch mine pretty closely but then I get my fucking neck snapped.
Speaking of, the neck snaps in this game are brutal as hell.

Makes losing so fun to me. Never thought they could do that.
Not that I know of, but you should always be checking behind every now and then you since this is a very nonlinear game and it's trivial to circle behind someone moving predictably.

I've stopped worrying about my K/D ratio so much and just focus on helping me team win. It's way more fun that way and not as frustrating for me.
In Attrition I focus on getting Titan kills and spectres since I find that easier and I help my team with the points. One of my friends sits in places and camps, gets like 4 pilot kills and 0 deaths.
He then tries to call me out on my lower pilot K/D ratio but I consistently finish higher on the board because I wrack up the points dooming titans. Aren't titans actually worth more points than a pilot kill in attrition anyway?
Those stats are insane though!
Goddamn. I wish I was that good at the game haha.

Nice! Was chasing an 8.0 K/D before I got off a bit earlier. Will try again for it later. Good stuff.Beaten
Killing a Pilot is still pretty much worth about half your Titan's health. But still, if you do pop smoke as soon as you hear them bumbling around on top of you, they won't really do all that much damage unless they have an Amped LMG or something.

Seems like they designed it to take 80-100 hours to get to Gen 10, which seems low to me. I've put more hours than that into a lot of games, including singleplayer ones like XCOM or Football Manager. It'd be weird for the metagame to end so "early" into the game's lifespan for so many.
So guys I'm having this weird dumb ass dilemma, I'm not sure whether to stick to the xbone version or the PC version, both are good as far as I'm concern my pros and cons are:
-xbone pros: comfy sofa couch, controller, lots of people
-xbone cons: that limited FOV, as someone who grew up as PC gamer I just cant get used to this horse view angles, not even in a big tv. Visuals are OK for console but that frame drop can be annoying at times.
-pc pros: The rush is bigger, action is intense because ya know M+K, I have nice rig so I haven't notice a lot of frame rate drops
-pc cons: I'm getting old being in a PC for a lot of hours takes a toll in my back and wrist. While I still managed to have a positive KD/Ratio match balance is already a problem. Not sure how healthy the population is going to be in 6 months for now.
I would actually play both whenever I feel like it, but I want to get to 10th gen on this one.

Wow I just went 0 pilot kills, 0 titan kills and 2 grunt kills.

I'd go with the Xbox. My lower back is the same sometimes. Comfort is the most important thing to me while gaming.
I wish I had that time on my hands. Said so, no one is stopping you to keep playing after you reach 10th gen.
Also you still have 0 ejection kills, damn.
That's where I'd put my ejection kills.
IF I HAD ONE
But seriously, sometimes the hit detection can be a bit iffy.
glare pls
But anyway, like I said before...satchel + triple threat, is goddamn hilarious. Using a Strider, just dashing around dumping grenades(and cluster bombs) through windows to keep people away, popping out right to the window to lay down satchels, cap the point, and jump back in. So much fun.
And nowhere near the crazy people above, but I've been happy with my progress as somehow my ratio has been steadily going up even while I chase the objective since I thought it was going to tank when I did a regen. Despite the low TTK in the game I find that players can retain really high surviviability, if I can stay alive to my first Titan I can generally stay at 0 deaths for the majority of the match.

Same. Shame a lot of the randoms I play with seem to rush off killing people in hard point. Still, I have my minions helping me guard areas
Meh, the only people who actually post pictures of their K/D ratio here are people looking to brag. I have amazing games where I'm the top ranked player by a good margin followed immediately by a game where I can barely get one pilot kill to offset my 8 deaths. My lifetime K/D against pilots is 0.9, but hell, that ain't bad and I'm still having a great time.

PC version hooked up to your TVs using an Xbox controller? I might try mine using step streaming tomorrow - can you do that with an origin game?
