Titanfall 2 is my favourite shooter in years.
Did you play mission 5?
i just played the first two, but i liked it enough to ask him to bring over his xbone again later
Awesome.
You gonna do a review/ Verb Plays... thread? I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts on the campaign and multiplayer (if you end up trying it)
maybe
what annoys me is that the original titanfall is not available on any good platforms
The original Titanfall didn't have a singleplayer campaign. It was a series of multiplayer missions with some unique scripted events and dialogue in the background that most people never noticed because they were shooting stuff. I did make this guide around T2's release for people who never played or got the story of the first, however.

why does CMD hate this so much again?
it's pretty dope, actually
i believe marketing let it down in sales, maybe
otherwise i think the general consensus was its pretty good to anyone whose played it
>marketing >BF1 hype >cod also being space and having MWR >the original Titanfall's consensus was that it died quickly and was pretty niche >Titanfall 2 tech test getting a lukewarm reception >overall people just being tired of futuristic shooters and advanced movement >no one had any reason to expect the campaign to be anything but a generic linear military shooter Shame, because like you said, it had a lot going for it. Especially how they've handled DLC and microtransactions. But I feel like a march/ april release would have done wonders, as it would allow Angel City, Live Fire and a bunch of other stuff to be in the game on launch. And one of the two contenders for best campaign shooter of 2016, if not of recent years in general. I just think its a series doomed to eternally live in a niche market.

I know it's a pasta since the comments told me so
but never answer "playing video games" as your first hobby. Make it sound like something that reflects some productivity at first glance, like uhh... sports or some normie shit.
sports and video games are literally as productive as each other
not to the employer
unless you were applying for a job at a game dev studio
it SOUNDS better to an employer, sure, but to say it's more "productive" is just objectively wrong
If you don't see the inherent value in honing your physical abilities over pressing buttons in the dark, then you're delusional beyond the point that you can seriously qualify anything as being objective.
What about if pressing buttons in the dark is what you want to do for a living
then you're just as useless to society as a professional sports player
idk man people like cgi and animation stuff

Seen these Naru? Jupiters poles are beautiful
im more of a fan of saturns poles. the gas giants are really spectacular in the sense of how mysterious they are.
I love the hexagons on saturn's poles. In general that planetary system has a lot of mysterious shit going on.

While there's a far cry thread, is 4 good? I need video games to play on my PC that aren't from 2010
It's FC3 with a less interesting setting and villain, but more shit to do. It's basically the same gameplay-wise. So if you liked FC3, you'll like it.

Just bane my plane up fam
The only component of your personality I've noticed is when you're talking about future space-related stuff. I admire your creativity, dedication, and knowledge about that interest. I'd like to hear more about it honestly, but I don't know the extent of your patience with non-stop questions and people who are generally ignorant of these things. I have a strange paranoia about being a liability to people I admire.
Verb didn't call me space boy for nuthin'. I just like talking about space and related topics. I'm always up for a good discussion. Though I don't really do it as a course or anything, just reading on whatever I happen to be interesting. I know Naru actually studies astronomy and Winy also knows a lot about space.

Would this be more fitting as a GTA DLC than an actual game to a series which I assume takes itself seriously?
What are you actually talking about?
This game seems too memey to actually be a standalone title and not some weird DLC spinoff or a Saints Row game(?)
I feel like that was primal more than this
Considering all the Jontron memes I'm inclined to agree.
I don't think this new Farcry looks memey, but that's because I also watched the other trailers.
Ye I might end up getting it. 3 was great and 4 was decent, and this one has planes in it now.

https://forums.titanfall.com/en-us/discussion/12530/monarchs-reign-the-patch-notes/p1?new=1I'll sum up the major bits ● Ion can now only laser shot once (no double tapped anymore) and has a damage nerf, laser core is also damage nerfed ● New Pilot Kit - Titan Hunter - get a bonus 10% titan meter for killing Titans ● Volt got a buff ● R201/101 got a buff at long range ● Flatline, P2016, R-97, amped DMR ● Devotion got a nerf that "should" bring it in line with spitfire ● Tactikill isn't quite as good now ● You can now execute shielded players ● You can now get core meter from damaging shields ● You get slightly less meter for damaging health to compensate

Didn't make the cut, sheeeeeeit.
Yeah you did dude. I should clarify that the list of names in the folder I found is extensive. I haven't had the time to write all of them down. I'm usually very busy. I'm sorry however. Your folder's marked but it had nothing inside it. If it's any consolation, he was at least thinking of you.

Looks like Monarch has two executions, one triggered by using siphon that grants you an extra battery
Leaks indicate that the battery steal one is triggered if you have an upgrade with your upgrade core that allows you to do that. It's a high-level upgrade though.

According to Respawn Monarch was based on two Vanguard Class Titans recovered after the battle of Typhon, Evidently the two Chasis that BT inhabits during the game. There's just one problem with this:
Typhon FUCKING EXPLODED.
Not only that, but BT's second Chassis was annihilated when it self destructed in the middle of the planet destroying fold weapon.
So either Vanguard Class Titans are actually Precursor artifacts, or somebody in the writing department done fucked up.
The SRS guys you drop with in Trial by Fire all use Vanguards. Makes sense to me that some ARES forces would move in after that battle and extract this (based on dialogue) rare and unique technology. There's The Ark, the period where Jack is unconcious and the entirety of The Fold Weapon for them to airlift two pieces of equipment out via Phantom. I also imagine that once some of the larger rocks begin to stabilise into an orbit, salvage teams would probably go down to the site. Hell, we never see what happens to IMS Thermopylae. That could have been carrying them, utilising Vanguards that were destroyed in the initial drop on Typhon and in the initial fighting. In a completely unrelated note,me and my friend were gonna do a Militia video to release today but we delayed it for two reasons; the script I wrote was half an hour's worth of recording so we've cut it into two episodes. The other reason being we're doing a fancy Monarch Reigns episode about IMS Odyssey to release on tuesday. Also trailer today get hype

https://www.reddit.com/r/finlandConspiracy/comments/52f5ae/the_finland_conspiracy_and_all_you_need_to_know/The Finland conspiracy states that Finland is not a real country. Not only is it not a real country but there is actually no landmass there at all, and the space between Sweden and Russia is actually empty ocean.
Now I realize that this notion seems ridiculous but that is why the conspiracy works, and why people are afraid to speak out against the existence of Finland, so I would ask you to approach the evidence I put forward here with an open mind.
Finland was first created some time during the Cold War between Russia and the West. It was also around this time that environmentalism and the idea of preserving our planet was really taking off, and it is due to both of those things that two of the main players in the Finland conspiracy came to work closely with each other, Russia and Japan.
Japan-Soviet relations had always been shaky at best, but also incredibly secretive. Even as early as 1925 Japan and the Soviet Union had secret deals with each other regarding fishing rights between the two countries, with the Soviet Union giving up much of it's fishing rights to Japan with seemingly no explanation as to why.
These secretive treaties and alliances continued right up until just before the fall of the Soviet Union, Gorbachev made trips to Japan months before the fall of the Soviet Union stating the entire time how the relations between them were improving, even when Soviet relations with the rest of the world were worsening.
In fact the entire past 100 years of Japanese-Russian relations bring up many unanswered questioned.
Why at the height of WW2, were the battles between these two countries minimal despite being on opposing sides?
Why did Japan sign a peace treaty with Russia in 1941, just months before their allies, Germany, went to war with Russia?
Why were relations between Japan and Russia always good throughout the Cold War, despite the major geopolitical differences between the countries, and close geographical positions that you think would cause tensions?
The answer is simple, they shared a common secret. A common asset that worked in both of their favours. And that asset was Finland.
It's unclear when Finland was first thought up, some say it was during the Cold War, and others say it was as far back as the 1920's, but the necessity of Finland is quite simple.
Japan can fish in the region of ocean between Sweden and Russia without worry for environmental repercussions, after all, nobody's going to expect fishing regulations to be broken in a place where everyone thinks there's a landmass will they? And in return Russia get a percentage of the fish to distribute amongst their populace.
It's a simple case of fishing the Finnish Sea, transporting it across Russia, (that was the real reason for the construction of the Trans-Siberian railway by the way), and then shipping it from the Eastern Russian coast to Japan under the disguise of 'Nokia' products.
This is why Nokia is the largest 'Finnish' company, and it is also why Japan is the largest importer of Nokia products, despite the fact that very few people own Nokia phones in the country.
There are clearly some unanswered questions to this conspiracy that I'll try and address below.
1- What about Finnish people? Are they all in on the conspiracy?
A. No. People from Finland genuinely believe they're from Finland. In reality they are from small towns on either the Eastern part of Sweden, the Western part of Russia, or the Northern part of Estonia.
2- What about all of Finland's other exports other than Nokia?
A. Finland's three biggest, and three most well known areas of industry are Oil, Tech, and Software. The oil is gathered in offshore platforms where the rest of us believe the landmass of Finland is, (again the Japanese get to avoid rigging regulations in this respect), the Tech companies have already been explained above with the Nokia post, and Software companies can easily redirect their IP Address through the Finnish sea. As for other Finnish exports, well, claiming Santa comes from your country isn't a viable way to get people to believe in it.
3- What about Helsinki? That is an enormous city on the world stage.
A. Helsinki is located in Eastern Sweden. It's not like the people flying there would notice.
4- What about everywhere else in Finland? There's a lot to it and it couldn't all be made up.
A. 99% of Finland is forest. A lot of it doesn't need to be accounted for when addressing Finnish geography.
5- Why do other countries go along with it?
A. At first it was a sign of goodwill between Western Countries and the Soviet Union. A bargaining chip that could be played. But Finland has since evolved to something much more. An idealistic placeholder for what countries should aspire to. No real country could so consistently place first in Education, Healthcare, Gender Equality, Literacy Rates, National Stability, The least corrupt government in the world, Freedom of the press. It's a concept for countries and people to aspire to. But that's where the problems about Finland's existence is disputed. no country in the world can possibly be that good.
6- Why the name Finland?
A. The country was originally made for fishing. What do fish have? Fins. Thus Finland.
7- What about the Finnish language?
A. Look up the similarities between Japanese and Finnish. It may surprise you how similar they are. Which is weird considering the vast distances between them.
8- I'm Finnish and your attack on my people and culture is insulting.
A. I'm not insulting Finnish people or culture. I don't even deny that there is Finnish culture. When you have a collective of a few million people identifying as Finnish then of course a culture will be built around it. I'm simply saying that that the landmass of Finland isn't actually there. It doesn't mean there can't be a culture or identity of being Finnish however.
9- This is an enormous conspiracy to keep secret, how could nobody else of realized it?
A. Other people have realized it. But imagine the ridiculousness of the statement 'I don't believe Finland exists'. Even if we did have undeniable proof of something put in front of us we would still hold the opinion that most of our friends, family, and acquaintances hold to not disrupt social convention. It's part of the human condition.
10- What about GPS and Satellite Images?
A. It's manipulated and forged. In the parts of Estonia, Sweden, and Russia that are allocated as 'Finnish zones' the GPS locations are changed to match that of Finland. Satellite images are forged. This is how that part of the world really looks >he hasn't been finpilled yet
