Doomed thread

First for DMR

Speed is life.

Third for 3,000 players on a Thursday night.

guys rate my CTF tourny ruleset
>no grappling hook
>melee ronin only, no shooting
>no smgs
>going fast only after request

I think that's why I like Ion more than Tone
Tone is very round while Ion has more sharp edges akin to Atlas or hell even dare I say Bionicles

Same for Legion, he is more sharp than Scorch

Stryder chassis just sucks period. Looks stupidly flimsy

>Volt
>Alternator
>Devotion
>EVA

Game is 36 bucks on the xbox black friday sale

buy it? how's the player count right now?

>EVA
>SCUM

Sure. While you're at it you might as well call Ion overpowered and convince me that sprinting on the ground is fast.

high on consoles, OK on pc. as long as you dont live in australia, youll find game modes on any platform

>r201 is bullshit
lol what

Get the PC copy, we need the players.
It is not okay, 3,000 is fucking laughable.

it hovers from 3-6kish. does seem to be declining though, i dont understand why really. why do people prefer this game on console when it is so much harder to play it with a gamepad and the slow aiming.
hopefully upcomin black friday/xmas sales will help

anyone have general LTS strats/tips to share? i love this game mode but no one ever communicates so i want to be able to at least call out useful information since im only an average player at best.
every game is my team bundling together in one spot and getting flanked even as i warn them of incoming enemy flanks.

i have a shitty laptop and I'm horrible at FPS's with KB+M, sorry.

>no titans
>carbine only
>final destination

>horrible at FPS's with KB+M
how? i mean compared to a gamepad, hows that possible?

Playing only FPS games on consoles for the last 15 years.

Sorry I can't help the PC community but at least I'm helping the xbone one.

>shat all over a [RDDT] with an edgelord nick
Too bad I didn't get to mine some salt on the chat

aim gud and don't get hit, haven't lost a single game of LTS with that strategy so far

Can we all get onto the network and team up right now?

Does seeing how an enemy character model looks like affect the way u play? We should have customization to make our pilot look like however we want them to that's realistic withing the games world

post your salt screens so I/we can make a TF2 collection version of it

>shitting on people with softball for a few matches, hit some good sticks
>suddenly unable to even aim the softball, have the crosshair directly on people at a distance where curvature barely matters and still don't stick them
>switch to car and get a 4-man in 2 seconds

Softball buff when?

I don't think there's another weapon I hate getting killed by more than the Devotion.
It's just fucking cheap.

what platform? ill be playing in like an hour.

Man I got some amazing salt from a reddit but my screenshot button ingame seems to only work 20% of the time so I didn't get any of it, lil disappointed

I used to love some of the old models they had. I think bringing them back as alternate or B-side skins would be cool. Though I was never really fond of the open helmet models.

PC

What mode is the fastest for ranking up? Preferably one where my being shit won't single-handedly tank the team's chance of winning.

Attrition, just focus on grunts until you git gud

custom I'm your biggest fan boy

Yes those looked pretty dumb. Was always a big fan of this one

Hardpoints

Why Double Take is the only sniper rifle i like?

Why hardpoints?

When you concentrate on two points via attacking and defending, you can take the top of the board mostly every time. Also forces you to have direct PvP instead of playing with AI.

pls dont be greedy

The more I play the more I'm beginning to fucking hate most of these maps.
Why are there so many jagged surfaces and hard turns that fling me off of walls when I try to run on them.
Why is there always fucking shit on the ground that I can't run over.
Why are the maps so fucking closed off and barely open.

>Finally got pilot execution
Thanks friend, that made me feel better.

Neat, G3 level and I didn't know weapons/upgrades you buy with merits from before carries over. I thought I had to save up a lot of merits each time.

How nice.

I think they are fine except for that one rock canyon map where it's really inconsistent which rocks you can wallrun on and which you just bump off of. also the map layout and spawns on that one are awful.

>just get on PC to play
>3.5k players
Damn. RIP

Thanks maynr

Finally got the execution, thanks m8.

>Throw gravity shuriken
>Shoot SMR at target
>They all go inside

Fuck why is this so fun to do.

Weapon/Pilot/Titan skins should unlock universally.
What the fuck is Regeneration anyway? I just want the White skins.

Who is best Titanfu and why is it Scorch?

>guy rodeo on me
>burn the ground near me
>lean my back on it
Just warming my back BRO!

>TFW use car and neither category

lacks Devotion, try again.

There was like 13k online worldwide across all platforms last night (america time)

this is depressing

I know, isn't it great? But I guess all we can do is wait and hope price drops get advertised this Black Friday and cyber Monday

Just remember it could always be worse

Battleborn has 100 daily players nowadays

On PC? Cause I haven't seen any number close to that.

Softball or SMR?

Softball for life, but SMR might be easier to use if you aren't feeling it.

He means on all platforms combined. :/

here's a secret they don't want you to know
smr actually does huge damage against titans

>can't carry team anyways
JUST

Its really not that much harder to go fast on console, especially since hip firing is a lot better.

>no titans
>EPG only
>Colisseum

>Playing Multiplayer
>Doing okay but not great
>Start listening to music
>The FAST awakens inside me and I start bouncing around the place really fast killing everyone
>I end up not having the top score in the match but I was very close

That was fun.

I would love to have Halo Reach tier Pilot customization. (I never played past Reach so I'm not sure if it got any better).

what, really? where are you seeing these stats? xbone and ps4 population were very healthy last i heard

It got meh after pretty meh after Reach. 343 kind of messed up the feel of the armor.

>ronin consistently loses to tone and legion in melee range
I just want to use a robutt with a giant sword. Why does it have to be so garbage?

Fuck I really like Battleborn, but waiting 20 min for a match when I could be going fast isn't a competitive choice.

Have you tried listening to Rules of Nature while playing?

anyone want to team up on xbox?

Protip, double arc wave is life. It applies the same turn speed penalties as an arc grenade, so just juke around a lot and keep them paralyzed.
Works real good vs Tone, Legion requires more harassment before closing.

Holy cheeseballs, thanks for the tip, fellow Scorchbro.

Fuckin this
Asshole on my team scores 120 points the whole game and bitches during evac that we didn't win.

Are player numbers going down?

Somewhat, yes. They tend to bounce back on weekends though.

>QuilinBane
Holy fuck. That's one of the guys that used to leave the lobby as soon as I got put against him back in TF1. That's some hard core nostalgia.

frontier news network update coming tomorrow. hopefully they announce some good balance changes to fix this fucked meta

what do you do against legion when his shield is up? does that block melee too? just retreat?

Electric smoke should have it's own cooldown like ordinance and NOT be tied to core charge!

Damnit, I really loved that game. Gearbox knocked it out of the fucking park, especially with the characters/writing.

I just won a game of Bounty Hunt 4047-4045

It probably does, but his feet are exposed so the arc wave should still hit him, making him unable to track you with his shield.
Ideally don't engage until the shield expires but if you have to try not to get shot too much on approach
>arc
>maneuver behind
>when he turns around arc again
>maneuver behind
>use phase dash to escape, or execute if possible
Sword core, though it takes your invincible execution away, applies the electric slowdown on all sword hits.
The main takeaway is don't expect to win spamming melee in their faces, you have to move out of their line of fire or they'll wreck you.

Seen anything weird in the chat? I saw some guy in attrition typed

>Nice breast plate Robo-Babe

Summoning PC players to make a group

How do we buff the Mastiff?

I don't even think it's bad, but everyone else seems to.

What about a simple boost to the projectile speed?

lets go my dude

>Flatline
What's so good about this thing?

Booting up pilot

high damage, predictable recoil pattern, 0 vertical recoil headshot laserbeam

>Volt

I will. Also I'm bad.

Isn't there a group for /tfg/ already or something?
