Yeah. There's a guy on /tfg/ who was datamining the update to bring proper patch notes. There's also Relic listed as an upcoming map among a bunch of gametypes incuding Co-op Bounty Hunt (essentially Frontier Defence 2.0) and Marked for Death.

Also like five new maps.

True Turquoise · February 27, 2017, 07:38:32 AM

There's an update for it

Oh, should have updated before I left

Ingy · February 27, 2017, 10:15:19 PM

No

I exagerate. Titanfall 2 isn't actually a bad game by any stretch of the imagination, but it has plenty of design choices that I and quite a few others feel make it inferior gameplay-wise to the original, and it makes the MultiPlayer utterly unbearable to me. Most people aren't so disturbed by it though and if you aren't one of the few people who stuck with the original, you will probably find everything fine.

Furthermore Respawn is just an amazing company despite the gripes I have with TF2s design. They have given so much to players for free, avoided microtransactions even when they could have easily done so with certain mechanics in both games, and their community interaction is great. One of the devs does an adorable animation series called Titan Toons on YouTube. Several of them have channels where they upload animation samples and such, and the Official Respawn YouTube channel is currently doing a let's play of the Campaign with commentary about the game's development.

That said, if I ever find out you run A-Wall and the Devotion in the game, I find you, come to your home and dissect your kneecaps.

I just noticed how the pilot's hands are basically just sci-fi material that looks just like Mechanix gloves.

Monarch Reigns Update - May 30th

New Titan - Monarch

Quote

Monarch’s design is based on the salvaged, badly burnt remains of two Vanguard-class Titans recovered by the IMC from the Battle of Typhon. While the Vanguard-class was designed by the Militia for armed recon deep behind enemy lines, the IMC’s mandate for Monarch focused on flexibility through survival and support options, to serve many operational roles.

Although Vinson Dynamics was unable to reverse-engineer and replicate key aspects of the original Vanguard design, they brought their own R&D innovations when creating Monarch. One of these innovations is her Upgrade Core, which allows her to improve her combat abilities during a battle, based on options set by her Pilot. Monarch also has an impressive ability to draw power from enemy Titans to recharge her own shields, or the shields of her friendly Titans. Despite the IMC and Vinson Dynamics’ efforts to maintain secrecy, several shipments of early Monarch production variants invariably leaked onto the black market, allowing mercenary Pilots and independent manufacturers across the Frontier to discover her true potential.

New Prime Titans - Ronin and Tone

New/ Returning Map - Relic

Quote

et among the old wreck of the IMC carrier IMS Odyssey, Relic is a worksite where Pilots have created clever wall running routes by hanging pieces of the wreckage between buildings. The map consists of the wreck of the Odyssey in the center of the map that splits the two town areas.

Created with frontlines in mind, the gameplay is all about assaulting and controlling the center and engaging in firefights from the great viewpoints of the ship against the varied defensible positions in the Town.

Map Update - Crash Site

- Passover of collision has resulted in over 100 collision issues being sorted out and smoothed out
- 8 zipwires and new wallrun locations added to help with going F A S T

New Execution - Now You See Me

This execution uses Cloak, in keeping with tactical-themed executions we've had for Phase Shift, Stim, Grapple and Pulse Blade. Details unknown, we'll have to wait for the trailer to see it in action.

Other Stuff

- CTF Nitro current featured playlist (Instant flag caps, no Titans, no Boosts)
- Titan Brawl to return as next featured playlist
- Featured Playlist will start being used to test new balance changes before they're rolled out to the game as a whole

Trailer drops on the 25th, update next tuesday

The Future - Stuff to Come

- New/ Returning Map - War Games
- New// Returning Game Mode - Frontier Defence 2.0

- Titan Brawl to return as next featured playlist

Please put this in the standard playlist

They're rotating stuff like M4D and Titan Brawl regularly so that they don't split the already small population. Plus it keeps the game modes fresh - I'll usually hop on for a few games of Nitro, Brawl or Marked but I always go back to Attrition after a while. Rotating them means that the playlists won't run out of people.

Plus, I found that Brawl was fun but a meta quickly established - Ion, Ronin and Tone were objectively the best Titans. Legions get shut down by Ions, Scorch is too situational and relies on enemies wanting to preserve their one life for area control and Northstar just isn't effective to the same degree she is in LTS. Plus, the map design doesn't really cater to it too well.

Just Titans and just Pilots gets kind of boring. Titanfall is at its best when both are in the mix.
