[QUOTE=ntzu;44295790]You one of those people that sprint around on ground level like its call of duty?[/QUOTE] Yeah- fuck no. It's cool for parkour, but it doesn't change the fact that there's no order to any of it. It's just a clusterfuck of buildings with loads of interiors where most serve no purpose and a layout that's pointlessly labyrinthine with no flow or direction. Just random buildings on a flat plane passed off as a map.
[QUOTE=GeneralSpecific;44295773]I guess I don't understand why this is a problem. My monitor's refresh rate is 60 mhz though. Are you talking about for monitors with higher refresh rates?[/QUOTE] 60 megahertz- that's impressive. Mine's only 144hz. Still capped to 60 fps though.
[QUOTE=Skyward;44295775]Colony is a shit map. It's like they just threw a bunch of buildings down at random and said "ITS A MAP- SHIP IT"[/QUOTE] I personally like the more chaotically designed maps, where it just seems to be random buildings. There's a lot more options and routes for wall running than there is on a map like, say, airbase. Airbase there's really only a few spots to actually wall run and gain any speed, not much cover and places to run in and out of as colony. I love just chaining wallruns together for upwards of a few minutes at a time, while just flying over top of people and shotgunning them in the top of the head and never missing a beat on my wallrun. That's much more enjoyable to me than sitting on a vantage point in a larger open map with the carbine picking people off
[QUOTE=Altimor;44295869]60 megahertz- that's impressive. Mine's only 144hz. Still capped to 60 fps though.[/QUOTE] oops, fixed. thanks. Is the problem that the frame rate is capped at 60fps and there's no way to get it higher (which benefits you but not me because of our monitors' differences) at all? Or is it that you can't get it higher and keep vsync, so screen tearing is a problem?
The B3 Wingman just seems completely overpowered. It can snipe, and it's an excellent close range weapon because a single CAR bullet lowers people's health enough for a B3 one shot. I've had great success using the CAR + B3 with the run n gun perk, I only have to stop for a moment to shoot the B3 which is great for CTF.

If you force it above 60 by enabling vsync there are issues with mouse sensitivity changing based on framerate. [editline]20th March 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=Mingebox;44295661]I couldn't tried both and couldn't tell the difference.[/QUOTE] It takes over half a second to refire the shotty, quickswitching is definitely faster (about 433ms from a recording)
Well I got around my issues earlier, downloaded it in an hour and a half or so, and after I found the solution to my issue of loading forever then getting disconnected (had to bump my texture resolution down to medium) finally got to play. I stayed up later than I wanted to but fuck, I am really happy right now. I got lucky with a really good game with some cool teammates. I love those games where you end up subtly cooperating with one random guy really well. Feels so cool. Everything in this game feels so cool. Quick question though, is it recommended to download the Beta ATI drivers with Mantle for this game? Honestly it doesn't feel like I'm getting as good performance as I was in the beta, when I had it installed (I had to uninstall it for another game), and my settings are way lower. Are there any good performance tweaks?
Am I the only one who thinks that 40mm needs a serious nerf when it comes to critical damage on titans? Right now, almost anyone who is going "try hard" on higher gen ranks, is using 40 mm. As soon as shields are down, you take down atlas in 3 or 4 crit hits... it's just not fun.
What even is a critical hit in this game? I know headshots on pilots are instant kill, but titans have crits too?
[QUOTE=Fire;44296660]What even is a critical hit in this game? I know headshots on pilots are instant kill, but titans have crits too?[/QUOTE] Rodeo attack. EDIT: nevermind titan to titan crit, no idea what causes that
[QUOTE=Altimor;44296671]Rodeo attack. EDIT: nevermind titan to titan crit, no idea what causes that[/QUOTE] Shot that BIG ASS RED area that covers 50% of the titans (expection of an Ogre). It deals 200% or 300% increased damage. 1 hit with stock 40mm cannon deals like 30 or 40% of total health to atlas, if you hit in that area... like... you hit that area all the time.
Is that why sometimes when I'm sniping with the railgun it will do an insane amount of damage for no apparent reason?
[QUOTE=Fire;44296736]Is that why sometimes when I'm sniping with the railgun it will do an insane amount of damage for no apparent reason?[/QUOTE] Yes. Crit areas only appear once the shield is down.
This obviously just proves once again that ogre is the best titan. [editline]20th March 2014[/editline] j/k can't touch my stryder swag dashin' all over the place
Fairly certain it teaches you about critical hits in the tutorial.
I don't know if the tutorial mentions it but loading screen tooltips do
The hitmarker glows red if you get a crit btw.
I've learned so many useful things tonight!.. Time to not make use of any of them because my framerate is just trash enough that my aim gets screwed up.
Honestly everyone is mad at the smart pistol but I think the most seriously unbalanced weapon in the game right now is the c.a.r. smg.. it will massacre you no matter how far you are from its wrong end, its accuracy is insane, its fire rate is insane, its damage output is insane. Once you unlock it there is little reason to use more situational weapons as it is a jack of all trades [i]and[/i] master of [i]some[/i].

You sure you're not mixing it up with the R-101C? Because that thing has far too much accuracy, damage, firerate, and range. It outdoes the sniper rifles in the game at their own job. [editline]20th March 2014[/editline] The C.A.R. ends up being more like an interesting side-grade to the R-97.

Once you get the counterweight its just [I]over[/I] for anyone in your field of view.
So, are you guys enjoying TitanFAIL? I bought a preorder for a friend of mine and he's going berserk on how retarded the game actually is, even after he participated into the beta. I'm glad I didn't buy the game.

I'm having heaps of fun, but yeah enjoy not buying it I guess.
I'm so regretting my 20ish hours and counting of fun.
I'm having fun with it, but I feel it gets a lot more generic when you're done with the campaign mode imo. [editline]20th March 2014[/editline] and go play classic multi instead

[/QUOTE]I've set everything to low and have the FPS locked to 120, barely goes under it at times, although it's an issue when tons of titans use missiles and such at the same time.

The SMGs have a shitton of recoil that bounces the sight around.
I can confirm that the gooser challenge is just evil.
I love how everyone have a different opinion about which gun is better than the others : I use the shotgun all the time and the revolver for distant targets, both are equally OP in my opinion. Yet I see people complaining about the C.A.R, the Carbine and the smart pistol all the time, I guess the game is balanced then :v:
