TITANFALL 2 |OT| Don't Misgender Tone.

This is harsh, but hearing that Respawn divided into 2 teams after Titanfall 1 explains a lot.

I'm not sure they T2 team really got what made the first game so wonderful.
Care to expand on this? I am loving Titanfall 2 more than Titanfall 1. I loved Titanfall 1.

I wish I could swap L1 and R1. Then I could get the true Freedom Wars layout.

Every console lets you customise inputs.

I would love hair triggers though, but when I complained about the app now allowing you to swap RT and RB on Xbox everyone was like "lmao it's beta bruh, scrub". ;(

The second game is very, very good and I played the fuck out of the first one.

Consoles allow for custom controller settings.

L1/LB jump + R3/RS crouch is working out great for me.

I can really get going on the BH now. Only need to remove the thumb for melee.
 
It's perfection. Default controls are the best.

I have an easier time with default, too, I can jump and look around at the same time just fine. Putting my tactical on A feels weird as hell and you generally need more precision with that.

Edit: Oooh you claw, though, I take back my endorsement. :p

the more I play, the more I wish I was playing Titanfall 1.

Why no titan shields? Why such a low TTK?

Why slower player movement? Why remove three weapon carry?

Why remove the audio chatter? Why remove AI?

Why remove the plentiful AI animations and context sensitive dialogue? Why remove the monster set dressing?

Why are almost all noteworthy mechanics changes "remove" and not "add?"

Eh, a good number of tacticals don't require much precision. Pulse Blase, Stim, Cloak, A-Wall, and Phase Shift are pretty easy to use with a face button.

Doesn't hurt if you do it right.

True, I've just never been able to use bumper jumper that effectively, and don't like switching mid match to try it out. Guess I could use it in a private match since you can play those solo now.

I feel like my hands are too large to do that effectively without cramping up. :p

Any news on whats next for a patch/balance update?

Checked the forums today and didn't see any notices. Not sure where else they'd post info. Twitter doesn't have anything either.

- TTK is fine, once you know how to play it's easy to survive or turn on people. Many times I've escaped firefights.

- Speed is pretty much the same with slide bunny hopping.

- Would like to see three weapon carry

- Audio chatter is there - AI and teammates always chatting. What game mode you playing?

- I'm learning to like batteries because it's easier to survive for the whole match now.

So i take it there were no issues or balance problems with the first game? What would you have changed?

Titanfall 1 is still available to play.
 
Can someone tell me/show me the picture of the skins that come with the titanfall 2 doritos? They're selling singular packages at work and I'm hungry.

Hoping for something really gaudy that I can combine with nuclear ejection to live out my gremlin d.VA lifestyle
The ion one is pretty badass. It is stealth like with green accents. Called night tech or something

What kind of control setup are you PC guys using? I've been having a really tough time getting the bunny hopping rhythm down with ctrl as the crouch button. I can do it, but I'm not fluid in it at all and sometimes I end up just coming full stop as a result. I'm thinking about trying my mouse thumb button for crouch but that's my grenade button right now.

Too many critical buttons and I'm out of fingers lol.

I didnt think about the monsters for some reason, but that is a good point.
All these things are things that make me like this game much less than the first one. Yes you do die faster than the first one. The game is missing a lot of the atmosphere of the first one and CTF and is kindof shallow.

set up a macro where crouch comes out one frame after jump

my setup for XB1 Elite =

Left Paddle - slide
Right Paddle - Equipment
Left Bumper Jump

Only time my thumbs come off the sticks is to reload :)

I play on PS4 so the Scuf only has 2 paddles unfortunately. :(

If I had this on Xbox I would be utilizing all 4 paddles for sure.
