Played four matches tonight. It was fun. This is my first time playing Titanfall and I can tell it's going to take awhile to get used to the movement, especially when you add in the grapple hook. I actually thought this game would play a little faster than it does, perhaps it just the maps but I find it hard to get up to full speed all that often. I play a lot of Destiny and I'm used to flying around maps via Titan Skating, I figured that's how this game would play all the time, but there tends to be a lot of dead areas where you just kind of have to hoof it until you can find another grapple point to get going again.
Playing as a Titan is a really fun and there is a fair bit of strategy involved, both in which abilities you use and where you generally want to be on the map to avoid getting ambushed by pilots. I'm guessing they have two of the more vanilla Titans in this Test given what Ive seen in the the trailers and I'm interested to see how the different abilities changes up the general ebb and flow of a match.
It was fun seeing at least one or two Gaffers in every match I played. We are one of the only Networks up and running so far. I'm calling it a night, but I should be on tomorrow morning to get a few more matches in. Good stuff, Respawn.
