Meet the Titans in Titanfall 2

a Default titan that you can customize would be cool, obviously reducing certain abilities so you have to choose between a customized titan and a more powerful one
No I meant Titans combing with eachother. Full Mecha.

Your idea is probably more feasible.

Northstar confirmed as Pharah's favorite Titan.

Missile Barrages will never not be awesome

Legion has the ability to shift between long and short range. I can see myself using him a lot. Love heavy builds.
 
I'm on mobile data so can't watch YouTube atm where I am, are titans still tied to single primary weapons each for laid outs? Can I not fly with my choice of weapon? :(

They look cool.

I just hope they manage to tune the game before launch, the tech test still left a sour taste in my mouth. :(

They seem to be "Characters" now so they are tied to their weapons, etc. The only thing customizable from the tech test were some perks.

Well, one good map at least. Now to just import all of the TF1 maps.
 
So I think I figured out how to fix titans in Titanfall.

In my eyes, the problem with the Titans is that they're kinda underpowered against the pilots. Not on a one-on-one basis, but more in terms of being slow and lumbering huge targets against pilots who are fast and can sneak around and shit.

So I think there should be a Pilot Killer class of titan that has extreme anti-pilot capabilities. Like, vision that highlights them in the FOV and can see them through walls. And maybe a smoke-gun that can fill a room with poisonous smoke (fire?) to take out pilots who hide and pot-shot the Titan.

Like, this thing should be fucking scary for pilots. You see/hear this thing coming, and you run away fast.

Then on top of that there are other classes of titans that all kinda do the rock-paper-scissors thing against each other, but any two of whom can easily take out the Pilot Killer titan, and can take out the Pilot Killer titan by themselves if they coordinate with a pilot or two. These non-Pilot Killer classes should be more or less as vulnerable to pilots as titans currently are.

If they set things up this way, and managed to give us 12v12 combat plus bots, I think Titanfall could finally live up to its promise.

Finally Ion can Vortex Shield back some mad ordnance. Tech test only had Scorch's main gun and the little mechs missiles. Imagine sending all that shit back to those new titans.

Ion is this games Ryu yo.

Guess Legion is another heavy no dash type titan, all they show is his chaingun. Looks like he has an armored chassis??

edit: Legion should have maybe 0 dashes

made this. Not happy that my girl Tone needs to acquire lock-ons and has a lame particle wall, but w/e

LOL fuck you Respawn, pre-order for Angel City? I'm not falling for that BS.

He can change the range of his weapon which is cool.

InB4 Angel city is revealed and half of the city has been leveled, turning it into mostly open spaces.

Ahhhhh

I'm so torn, all I wanted was Titan Falls gameplay refined + some new badass Titans and some good maps...

We're 1/3... 😞 Atm. Standing by for Titanfall
reviews, lets plays, and user impressions

learn to read, it says "early access"

I'm guessing that means locking everyone out of potentially the best (and only TF1 map) in the game unless you pre-order? That's lame.

Edit:

For real, I wish Tone has something other than a Particle Railgun. TBF we will all have Electric smoke so that's fine but... I would have liked something like Tether Trap instead.

Northstar and Tone should swap. Particle Wall makes more sense with a Plasma Cannon.

Wait, isnt there one more titan? Campaign titan, Vanguard, maybe this will be the custom titan? They're still missing some titan weapons no?

Damn those Titans are fine.

I've pretty happy that BF1 and TF2 tests came out recently. It's great to see the different in those two games and what they offer. I think, regardless of what Respawn does with TF2, I'll be in there day 1, I just love it so much.

In the Campaign, you can upgrade/customise, and if you finish campaign, you can make a custom Titan for MP.

;) that would be nice

EDIT: Can anyone think of an OP combination of all of the abilities above? I can't, so why can't we customise. I'm sure we'd be able to no?
