I'm pretty depressed now that the beta is over. Also suffering withdrawal symptoms. Don't think this would happen with any PS4 games.
There isn't a game that has ever been created that doesn't have someone who thinks it sucks. Not liking it is fine. I still don't understand the "too easy complaint" though, considering difficulty is 100% based on your competition. If you happen to get into a server with bad competition, then it's going to be easy. If you happen to get on a server with great competition and your team sucks it will be hard. If you are great at first person shooters you will do pretty well in any FPS against average competition. Presuming someone who is level 14 means they are good competition is part of the problem. Other players being 14 while you are lower means very little because you can get to 14 in ~5 hours. Even someone who has played for hours every day since the beta released would still be considered inexperienced compared with the same amount of play time in a game that has been out for a long time. Some interesting stuff regarding the final release that was posted on Neogaf.com and on IGN.com : Some maps will have hostile alien creature NPCs. Based on data mining it looks like 15 maps, though at least one might be part of the tutorial. The game modes they found were: Team Deathmatch Capture the Titan Capture the Flag Hardpoint Attrition Uplink Last Titan Standing Exfiltration Elimination ATDM Campaign Multiplayer http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=101030552 Also has a list of different perks, weapons ect datamined. For example the 3rd titan option besides electric smoke and vortex shield, is particle wall, which puts up a force field that you can shoot thru but absorbs enemy fire until it takes enough damage and is destroyed. Active radar pulse will be the 3rd pilot option besides stim and cloak, which is one of the burn cards available in the beta that lets you see enemies thru walls while active.
Does melee in a Titan against another Titan do anything if that enemy Titan's shield is up? I found myself in a lot of those situations where I was doing a melee attack. Also, I guess the enemy Titan has to be on the brink of exploding before a Titan melee attack will pull the enemy pilot out of the Titan and throw him to his death? I'm slowly getting better. I'm still only around Level 9. I have had some good games and not so good games. Lately, I've been trying to hop on enemy Titans as a pilot, open the back panel, and blast the circuitry. I've been stepped on a few times trying to do that. lol
What did I say about sales projections? The Xbox One will be fine, and if you're calling this over now you're even more dense than everyone already thinks you are. The Xbox One is in 13 markets, and it is $100 more at the moment. No one is surprised the the PS4 is currently outselling it in 48 markets. Now, one could argue that people thought it would outsell the PS4 in the US but I figured it would be pretty even. It is lagging behind right now, but again - it will be just fine. The Wii sold like hotcakes it's first year, and you can see just how well it ended it's reign... not well at all. As nearly ever sane person in this thread has said, it is a marathon - not a sprint. The Xbox team has several tricks up their sleeves, and you're foolish to think that they don't. Titanfall will sell consoles, period. Will it be millions? Probably not but they will get a bump. Halo will sell consoles by the boatload. What Sony do over the next 18 months has more to do with the success of the current race than what they have done in the past 18 months. If there is a shield on a Titan, don't waste your time. They may also have the perk/item/skill thingy that extends the shield time on the titan.
Best thing i've found is after my Titan is on the verge of death...when i eject out i find a rooftop and start shooting at them with my anti-titan weapon. Or if they are close enough you can camo and just wait for the titan to get close enough and jump onto his back. Getting onto a Titan from the ground is tough, you usually end up crushed or they shoot you before you can get on.
Yeah, never run at them on foot - you're dead 9 out of 10 times. Always jump from above, or get them from a window, wall run or wall hang.
so i d-loaded that F2P loadout game on steam a few have mentioned in this thread..who's playing that? pretty fun, though i suck ass at it, seriously have no idea how anyone finishes with more kills than deaths after matches. seems like if i get a kill i'm dying immediately right after or 2 sec later.
T'was me. The key to that game is maneuverability. Also move around even when you're shooting. Do your best to avoid getting hit while trying to hit the other player in the process like jumping, strafing, rolling (double-tap the direction you want to roll), and using the extra boost jump you get when you roll (after you complete the roll, hit jump and you get an extra high jump to get to a higher platform). If you have grenades, throw them at your feet so the enemy runs into them while they chase you. The most important thing of all; Know where all the health packs are. There is no BS health-regen in this game so it's best if you find a health pack as quickly as possible. It's literally a life-saver. Your friends can heal you too if they have the healing add-on for their guns.
i mean i'm doing all that...just it seems near impossible to get in a gun battle and escape with a kill and staying alive. either someone joins in and finishes ya off or whatever. yet these people finish games with 20 kills, 3 death. like how in the hell. you can't camp in the game you run into someone every 3 seconds.
Just play it some more. Study the maps and find exit points where you can battle roll + jump, escape the fight, and find health packs. Once you remember where they are, just use evasive maneuvering to get to them. You're low level so I'm assuming you haven't full equipped your guns with different mods, bullet types, etc. Try using the shield instead of the grenades so you can last a second or two longer in firefights. Melee attacks are OP so use them as soon as you get close to the enemy to finish them off quicker.
Come again? The game is super fun. I can't wait for it to come out. Mann, I used that link in this thread to pre-order it and didn't even realize that it was for a PC and not the XB1. What a fail.
I have to admit...it was a bummer not knowing the titan beta ended and trying to play getting a "no servers available" message. EWWW! TITANFALL WITHDRAWAL!!! UGH! I went over to BF4 Multiplayer for the first time. Did okay there...but I miss my titan.
You should watch streams on Twitch of players that are better than you. You're definitely making mistakes if you're dying, or perhaps your aiming may need work. The key is to be ready for that second person to jump in, or you need to kill people quickly enough that you have time to move to a new area before there is retaliation. I'll tell you one of my secrets that I don't know why everyone doesn't use. If there is a silencer/suppressor in a game, I almost always use it. If you don't show up on other people's radar when you shoot, half of your problem is gone. You do generally need to aim better, because there is almost always a slight loss of damage or range due to to the addition however.
Have you played it? A silencer won't help you here. The maps are arena-sized maps. Depending on what mode you play, you will end up running into someone within a few seconds. It's just the nature of the game, that's why evasive maneuvering is key in this game and knowing where are the health packs are. You have two guns you can use each match, so pick your main weapon's configuration that you're good with, then use the second weapon as a finisher (Rocket launcher, scatter shot shotgun, etc). Also, fire ammo seems to be OP in this game since it leaves a DOT effect on the person even if you die. I've died many times with fire even after I killed the guy seconds before. Here's a SS of one of my best matches: Spoiler
