Anyone else getting a lot more dropped connections after the last update.  I'm seeing quite a few, up from about zero beforehand...

 

Haven't played since Sunday. When was the new update? Hope they get this sorted quick, i need my Titanfall fix and am very close to Gen 4. Just that damn railgun is so weak and slow!

It was the 15th I believe, with the new maps.

 

Railgun's alright if you time it well :P

 

I'm working on getting to Gen 7 - just need 16 more rodeo kills...

Don't even start with the rodeos...i have no idea how to do those. I think the requirements will prove too much for me soon.

 

As for the update, if the last one was the 15th then i didn't notice any difference in connectivity quality - for better or worse.

Rodeo kills are fairly straightforward once you get the LMG, especially with the Slammer upgrade. I think pretty much any other weapon would be worthless unless you jump on a weak one. You just have to remember to keep shooting after you doom it until it's dead or it ejects you because it's going nuclear.

I had two at the weekend for the first two games but after that no issues. I played around 15 games in total I think. Haven't had a chance to play since then.

Thanks, will remember to use the LMG, never really got into that one!

I don't think there's an issue with DLC after 2 months. MP games usually feel pretty boring long before that for me.

 

I think when it comes to Titanfall it's a bit of a smack in the face though, when it's MP only and light on content for $60 to begin with. You know you've made a mistake on your pricing when people start saying PvZ GW offers more bang for $.

 

But that's the cost of delays, porting and AAA industry for you...

Respect this opinion but disagree with it. Titanfall is far from light on content, it's pure joy for me. And it has more maps than most other shooters. I think it's a great value, already at nearly 60 hours played, which is quite impressive for me...

 

As for PvZ: GW, that sunflower really scares me.

A few details on the the next major Titanfall update from E3

 

 

Biggest change to note - two new game modes (2v2 Titan and Marked for Death), Titan burn cards, Titan customisation and finally team shuffling. 

 

Team shuffling is going to be great (something that should have been there from day one) but it means that you won't need to find a whole new team to play against every few matches.

This is great news! Shuffling indeed should have been from day one seeing as we've had this capability in gaming starting around 1994...Marked for Death hahaha let me guess the CO will be John Hatcher? Good name for a mode. And more burn cards always welcome, am addicted to those. Thinking about buying the actual set....

It could be worse - it COULD be Steven Seagal (star in a movie of that name).

 

Despite being an early snack, I'm back to enjoying Titanfall (via Game Time).  The biggest issue is that I have so many OTHER games on my plate that I wind up playing Titanfall in dribs and drabs.

Hahahaha i need to work on my humor or i don't know what...if i was referencing Seagal's character in Marked for Death then clearly i know it was Seagal...that was the whole point of the joke arrrggghhhhh! :argh:

 

But yeah, i know what you mean :ike:

 

As for Titanfall, i also can't get enough of it even though i keep telling myself over 60 hours in three months is plenty, time to put it down...but i just want to be Gen 10 :cry:

I feel your pain. I haven't been Anne to really enjoy the game since mid April. Works been busy as hell and I've had grown up things to worry about. Now that its summer I'll barely have time for games and titanfall works because of how fast it is.

Oh and I agree with too many games. Working on infamous on ps4 and watch dogs on PC. In between played hard line and destiny. By the time summer is over destiny will be available. Next month I'm moving and last of us comes out for ps4 :( with how good the game is I'm going to probably not bother playing it unless its a stupidly hot day outside.

Why do we have to be grown ups!

Hey your smart device must really like Anne as opposed to "able to" :p

 

You ask the most painful question out there, all joking aside. Why must we age? Why must all this pass? Why is life always about balancing stuff? Work, family, and trying to enjoy life...each with their own lot and problems and challenges...sometimes i just feel like locking the door and doing nothing but gaming and drinking beer, but then the rational part of me reminds the not so rational side that's hardly a sustainable lifestyle...

 

Well, let's not be too philosophical about it - just try to find time when time is to be found for games, and good luck with your new place :fun:

More reason to play - Update 4 dropping soon

 

Thanks for posting this, nice and pretty massive update. Love the ability to unlock titan classes w/o SP, which i think is a wasted mode in Titanfall. All the other changes and updates also seem good, so hopefully this is done soon.

Yep it will be interesting indeed, even if the an initial match is unbalanced the shuffling should help a great deal.

Update should be hear before the end of the month. I think there were a lot of complaints about no-one playing the SP and it meant a load of players were unable to unlock the extra Titan chassis so they needed to make changes there.

    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      By The Werewolf · Posted

      The flaw with this analysis is that this laptop has a cellphone CPU in it. In the Intel world, that would be an N150 and those are everywhere, even in low end laptops. You can get an N150 based NUC with 16GB RAM and 256GB-512GB SSD... NOT soldered in... for < $500 Canadian (around US$360). The problem is two fold: tech bloggers/writers on most tech site (like this one, ironically) overvalue Apple and apparently aren't in the same earnings class as most regular people. As a result, we get breathless articles about how everyone needs a folding phone when most people just cannot afford one... or really need one. And we get Apple used as the baseline metric regardless of whether that comparison makes any sense. If Dell or HP released a retail laptop with a cellphone motherboard, you'd be all over them for doing that - but Apple does it and it's genius. I see articles suggesting what Samsung - a company that basically started the foldable phone market and has built them for eight years - needs to do to compete with Apple's unreleased, unspecced and unseen folding phone. Sorry, no - if the Neo (really creative name there BTW - still, better than the Go, the other "creative" product name everyone's using) encourages PC makers to make cellphone laptops using lower end ARM processors, we all lose. It's a step backwards and a capitulation to the fact that semiconductor makers and computer OEMs (and tech bloggers) have totally lost the plot.

      Steam Next Fest returns with thousands of new demos to try out by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Valve has been routinely kicking off demo festivals on Steam for years now, and the second drop of 2026 has just opened its doors. It's a great opportunity for any PC gamers to find some interesting games before they release. The June edition of Steam Next Fest is a week-long digital festival including gameplay slices from a large number of indie developers, though a few major publishers are involved this time too. Interested players can use the Next Fest hub page's various sorting and filtering options to easily sort through the hordes of demos available. The top buttons offer quick access to separate and important sorting options, including "By Genre, By Theme, By Feature," with each one offering more granular settings when clicked. At the same time, the built-in Steam tags system is also available below every page to discover new games more quickly. As always, logging in will also enable Steam gamers to utilize Valve's recommendation algorithms to find game demos they might like, specifically, depending on their past play and purchase histories. This time there is even a toggle now to swap between getting a random and personalized selection as Valve collects more data on the available demos. The Charts section is where you can find the most popular demos on the platform right now, offering up the most hyped titles in a simple list. Right at the kickoff, Mistfall Hunter, Empulse, Echoes of Aincrad, Onimusha: Way of the Sword, Over the Hill, Mortal Shell II, and more are trending. Expect this list to change as the week progresses. This edition of the Steam Next Fest is slated to end on June 22 at 10 AM PT. Valve's latest event is now open, and it can be accessed by going to the dedicated hub page here.
