Are there any Titanfall competitions going on? I'm genuinely interested in playing Titanfall competitively.

[QUOTE=Sam Za Nemesis;45406857]They claim it's for slower computers[/QUOTE] Audio loads faster uncompressed. There should still be an option for it though.
[QUOTE=ColossalSoft;45408592]Audio loads faster uncompressed. There should still be an option for it though.[/QUOTE] that's true but it doesn't warrant the absurd file size the difference in loading times is hilariously minimal and more likely than not it's probably because they see disk space as a cheap resource compared to CPU cycles (which is ~sort of~ true) and just went along with it I could write an essay of why this is stupid but whatever, I am having fun playing the game and I'll just have to shut out the sound of my SSD crying in agony
[QUOTE=codemaster85;45406818]i thought everyone knew you can Bhop in titanfall.[/QUOTE] There's a difference between bhoping and getting launched by a rocket
[QUOTE=ColossalSoft;45408592]Audio loads faster uncompressed. There should still be an option for it though.[/QUOTE] I'm not educated on the topic, but doesn't it cause another issue which is fairly common? the audio files get so absurdly big that the HDD becomes a bottleneck since it can't load the massive files fast enough on the fly, so it causes stuttering. the CPU may be spared, but what about the HDD speeds? putting a 50GB game on an SSD is kind of out of question for most people
[QUOTE=wulfe8857;45406301]Are there any Titanfall competitions going on? I'm genuinely interested in playing Titanfall competitively.[/QUOTE] do you play on pc? good luck. do you play on 360? good luck. do you play on xbox one? probably somewhere there is a competitive titanfall league thing.

I have to make sure that my hard drive isn't doing anything intensive when I play Titanfall because otherwise I end up with screwed up sound because I just can't load the stupid huge sound files fast enough.

Update soon (meaning free). They're adding an in-game currency (they promised no micro-transactions calm down) that you can use to buy burn card packs and Titan insignias. Also discarding burn cards has been replaced with selling them. The new DLC maps are super nice, too. And the DLC will release on July 31st. Oh also gen 1 pilots will have chips/badges next to their names.
I hope they'll address some of the issues with how the game flows. I'm not sure what it is, but it feels like the game stutters even though my FPS is always at 60FPS. it's as if I'm playing <30FPS at times, which makes the game a lot more dull to play

[QUOTE=lapsus_;45478615]How soon?[/QUOTE] I'd assume on the same day as the DLC. I can't remember, but I think they released one of the previous updates the same day as expedition too?

[QUOTE=lapsus_;45478615]How soon?[/QUOTE] It's shipping at the same time as the DLC. (just confirming what was said above)
No idea if this is true or not, but as I watched the stream Respawn held earlier, the comment section exploded with people talking about a spectator mode being confirmed. I didn't actually hear that myself, so could anyone [I]here[/I] confirm if it's true?

Just played an Attrition match wherein I ended 21-0. That, friends, is what happens when you play 3v3 in a public server.

You are A dick.
Will they at any point put teambalance in that steaming pile of shit that is 'story' mode? Because this is too much to bear for a stupid badge

Plus there are private matches if you really want to fuck around
Oh my god the Arc Cannon is as crappy as anything
I find it incredibly annoying - always die from it when I'm pilot and it chews shields
[QUOTE=lapsus_;45486435]Oh my god the Arc Cannon is as crappy as anything[/QUOTE] The shotgun is pretty bad now, at least it has a new learning curve other than point and click.
[QUOTE=FlakTheMighty;45487270]The shotgun is pretty bad now, at least it has a new learning curve other than point and click.[/QUOTE] I've found the shotgun to be a much better option than the R101 at least. Has anyone else noticed an increase in Smart Pistols lately? It's getting really annoying.
Allright, better now. I figured out I had to do it just like the raigun and steal other people's titan kills like a big ugly meanie Before that I did a LTS match where I had 2 rodeo kills and 13 Arc assists
I'd say arc is probably the best or second best titan weapon behind the 40mm. It's just so damn effective.

I worked out that probably half my deaths come from that damn thing, and I am not exaggerating
Use the double agent burn card whenever there's a smart pistol guy kicking your ass
Does that work? I thought it was for NPCs
