Titanfall

Ich beziehe mich auf die Art und Weise, wie Respawn die bekannten Baustellen und Wünsche der Community anpackt, kommuniziert und umsetzt - ohne viel Trara.

4/10/2014 Patch Update Details

NEW FEATURES (All Platforms)

Private Match (beta) - This is the first public test of our new Private Match mode. This gives you a way to organize matches with and against your friends, for casual or tournament play. Some features are unfinished or not yet implemented, and we welcome your feedback. A few highlights:

• Private Match supports 2 to 12 players, with 1 to 6 players on each team.
• You can start a new Private Match lobby by choosing it on the main selection screen (alongside Campaign, MP, and Training). Invite your friends in or have them join you at any time.
• Choose any of the game's maps or modes (CTF, Pilot Hunter, etc.) to play in.
• Choose which team you're on.
• There is no XP gain, challenge progress, or achievement unlocking while in a Private Match. For this beta, the Last Game Summary screen will display what you would have earned in normal play outside of Private Match, but be aware that this progress will not be recorded to your lifetime total.
• For this beta, there is no concept of a "lobby leader"; any player can change game options in the lobby or start/stop the match countdown.
• All Private Match games are still played on dedicated servers via Xbox Live Cloud Compute, just like normal matches.
• New options like round time, score limits, and much more will come in future updates.

Party Colors - Your party members and their titans now show up on the mini-map with green colors, instead of the normal blue colors that other friendlies use. Their names are also drawn in green on your HUD, the obituary text, and in the pre-game lobby. This helps you figure out where your friends are and what they're up to, especially in the heat of combat.

Auto-Titan Color in Obituary - Your auto-titan's name now shows up in the obituary with the gold color that your own name does. Previously it had the same blue color as any other friendly. This makes it easier to keep tabs on how your titan is doing.

Removed Wall-hack Exploit - PC cheaters were able to modify their local configuration files to enable a sort of wall-hack cheat using legit game code. We've closed the exploit that they were using.

Menu Changes - "Play Multiplayer" is now the default (top) option on the private lobby menu, if you've completed both the IMC and Militia campaigns. It has also been renamed from "Play Classic", since the term "classic", which we used internally, proved to be confusing to some players.

Game Version on Main Menu - The main menu now displays the game's version in the bottom-left corner. Now you don't have to wonder if you really do have the latest version of the game, and we can use that to double-check things if support is helping you troubleshoot issues.

NEW FEATURES (Xbox One)

Party App Shortcut in Menus - Added a shortcut on all menus that opens the Xbox One's "Party" app by pressing Left Trigger on the controller, similar to the existing Right Trigger shortcut that invites friends. You can then press 'B' to close it when you're done, or leave it up. (This is much easier than the manual method of going to the Home screen, opening "My games & apps", selecting Apps, scrolling a few screens over to the "Party" app, and opening it.)

GAME BALANCE CHANGES

The Gooser Challenge - Based on recent feedback from fans of the game, the Gen 5 challenge requirement 'Gooser', requiring players to kill 50 ejecting pilots, will be reduced to 5 total. We had a couple of design goals for Regeneration. One was to give players a structured way to discover and experience ways of playing the game they might not have otherwise tried on their own. The second was to recognize players' mastery of various skills, going beyond just 'time played'. We went a bit too far with this challenge, especially considering the unique conditions that have to be met just to have the opportunity to get a kill on an ejecting Pilot. We understand some players have already completed the challenge, or have already earned more than the new requirement so we will be internally noting those players so we can recognize their accomplishments in a future game update.

40mm magazine capacity for default and Extended Mag – The default magazine size was making the 40mm too powerful. It is intended to be the only weapon that can take a Titan down without reloading, if used skillfully. However, 20 rounds per magazine were proving to be too high and overly tolerant of indiscriminate fire. We’ve reduced it to 12 rounds per magazine, which still allows players to take a Titan down without reloading, but helps balance it out against other Titan weapons. The extended mag has also been dropped from 25 to 16, with the same design principles applying to this change.

Titan Quad Rocket mag size change – During development, there was a time when the Quad Rocket was too powerful. We made a lot of changes to pull it back before shipping (lessened the screen shake impact, lessened the duration of the first person impact FX, lowered the magazine size, pulled the damage back, etc.) It currently can struggle against other Titan weapons and going back to the 5/6 (default/extended mag) magazine sizes helps balance the weapon and allows players to miss a few shots and still be effective. It was 4/5, now its 5/6.

Titan Quad Rocket damage vs Titan shields – It was taking too long to drop a Titans shields with the Quad Rocket (5 shots). This meant you had to reload before you could even drop an enemy Titan’s shields. This was the only Titan weapon that had this issue. We’ve now upped the damage against Titan shields so that it can drop a shield with 4 shots. Combined with the increased mag size, this damage increase effectively gives you one more volley in the mag to deal serious direct hull damage.

Titan Quad Rocket 'Rapid Fire' Mod's mag size change – We upped the magazine size for the Quad Rocket's Rapid Fire Mod to help it compete with the changes made to the extended magazine (from 5 to 6). The Rapid Fire Mod’s magazine size is going up from 16 to 18.

Amped Kraber Titan damage change – We upped the damage that the Amped Kraber Burn Card does to Titans. It is now the only significantly effective “small arms” weapon against Titans. Note that this only applies to the Amped version of the Kraber. The damage goes up from 100 to 800. We added this to give the Kraber Burn Card a little bit more character, as well as to give you something to shoot if you have a hard time hitting those little Pilots with the Kraber. So snipe away at those Titans…before they kill you!

Hardpoint Domination scoring changes – We wanted to reward and encourage players to go out and capture enemy hardpoints. As important as defending a hardpoint is, capturing them is more important and a tougher task, generally speaking. We did not want to completely remove points for defending, but attacking players were getting too little credit for their efforts. Here is a breakdown of the changes:
• Capturing a hardpoint from 150 to 250
• Assisting in capturing a hardpoint from 75 to 100
• Neutralizing a hardpoint from 50 to 150
• Assisting in neutralizing a hardpoint from 25 to 75
• Killing a player inside an enemy hardpoint from outside (nearby) from 75 to 50
• Killing a player inside an enemy hardpoint from outside (far) from 75 to 50
• Killing a player inside an enemy hardpoint from inside the hardpoint from 75 to 50
• Killing an NPC inside an enemy hardpoint from inside the hardpoint from 25 to 10
• Killing a player outside of a friendly hardpoint whilst inside of a hardpoint from 75 to 50
• Killing a player inside of a friendly hardpoint whilst inside of a hardpoint from 75 to 50
• Killing an NPC outside of a friendly hardpoint whilst inside of a hardpoint from 25 to 10
• Killing an NPC inside of a friendly hardpoint whilst inside of a hardpoint from 25 to 10
• Defending a hardpoint now goes from 75 to 25

CTF scoring changes – We wanted to make sure the big payoff in CTF came from capturing the flag. Killing the carrier and then returning the flag was worth 400 points (combined), while capturing the flag was worth 500 points in comparison. These changes are meant to reward players who capture the flag a bit more than those who kill the carrier and return the flag. Defense is still a very important aspect of CTF so we wanted to make sure to keep defending points high enough to still encourage playing defense. Here is a breakdown of the changes:
• Capturing a flag from 500 to 400
• Returning the flag from 250 to 100
• Killing the flag carrier from 150 to 100

BUG FIXES (All Platforms)

• Fixed an issue where a Titan firing ordnance would not show on the minimap correctly.
• Fixed a rare bug with Pilot health pools that would make them virtually invincible.
• Fixed rare cases where Titans could be called in through solid geometry.

BUG FIXES (PC)

• Fixed issues with Asian fonts.
• ‘-nojoy’ command-line parameter now disables gamepad input.
• All anti-aliasing modes should now properly be displayed in the video settings menu.
• Fixed graphics corruption and some GPU underutilization for SLI and Crossfire configurations.
• Fixed a crash in the options menu when toggling between Low and Medium shadows.
• Mouse buttons can now be used for voice chat in lobbies.
• Titanfall will no longer override your Windows microphone volume setting when it is launched.
• Fixed the Smart Pistol reticle so it scales properly based on the Field of View setting.
• Fixed crashes on machines with 32 or more cores.

Titanfall players will have some new maps to play with when Respawn Entertainment releases its first DLC titled Expedition sometime in May. The DLC pack will include three maps and will take place after the game's campaign.
The first map "Swampland," pictured above, includes "archaic alien technology" and features numerous trees, a good environment for players who enjoy wallrunning. The map will also include zip vines.
A second map titled "Runoff" will contain a lot of pipes and water. A third map called "Wargames" is based in a training simulator that players are familiar with in the beginning of the game.
Free content will be coming to Titanfall as well, including Wingman LTS, a special 2 vs 2 version of Last Titan Standing. Respawn will also add some new burn cards.
Other features are in development as well, like the ability to remove the HUD, suitable for players who enjoy recording game videos. A spectator mode is also in the works. Soon, users may have the option to join other gamers alike using social media hashtags. More gameplay stats, daily challenges, and titan decal customization are being explored too.
Respawn plans to implement variants of existing modes in the next few weeks and if they prove to be popular, they could become permanent modes in the future.

Spielst du noch in deinem Classic-Sandkasten?

Hab momentan nur ein Origin Spiel installiert und das ist Titanfall. Ich spiele es noch regelmäßig. Hat sich aber schon längst bezahlt gemacht und es kommen ja auch bald neue Inhalte.

Aktuell nerven mich die Regen-Herausforderungen für Gen4 (Titankills mit Railgun und Pilotenkills mit Satchel Charge). Das System an sich macht schon Sinn und ist durchdacht. Jeder Spieler muss sich zwangsläufig auch mit allen Waffen entsprechend beschäftigen - oder er bleibt einfach bei Level 50 und bekommt keinen bunten Chip.

R-101C Carbine bleibt trotzdem meine Lieblingswaffe. Geiles Ding!

Spielst du noch in deinem Classic-Sandkasten?

Ja, aber weit weniger als noch zu Beginn der Entdeckung. Der Hauptgrund ist, dass sich unsere Gruppe irgendwie aufgelöst hat. Wir waren eigentlich immer mindestens 5 Leute, gelegentlich sogar 10 und konnten gleich 2 ganze Squads stellen. Dann so ungefähr eine Woche vor NS war irgendwie keine Sau mehr da. Alle Diablo spielen oder so, keine Ahnung.

Also in der Gruppe macht es zuweilen schon echt richtig Spaß, aber wenn man nur zu zweit ist? Da kann man höchstens mal auf Shanghai und Dawnbreaker Heli fliegen und den Rest kannste eigentlich vergessen.

Anderer Grund ist für mich persönlich auch ein recht starker Fokus auf Rome 2 im Moment.

Ich würde BF4 schon echt gerne öfter spielen, aber ohne Gruppe ist es halt nicht sehr spaßig. BF4 an sich ist es also nicht was mich vom Spielen abhält, mehr die äußeren Umstände.

Hab mir ohne zu zögern die iPad Version geholt. Ich kenne die Umsetzung als App schon vom letzten Tomb Raider Spiel.

Super interessant und professionell aufbereitet. Viele ungeschönte Hintergrundinfos und spannende Einblicke in die schwierige Entwicklungsphase.

Kapitel 11 zum Probelesen. Unbedingt mal reinschauen, lohnt sich.

Neue Titanlieblingsfähigkeit: Megaschlag.



Btw xbox ahoy wieder.

Archer ist dann auch endlich mal bei Gen 2.0 angekommen.

He. Ich hatte eine längere Pause... spiel nur hin und wieder mal.
Bin gerad Gen 3 Level 20.

Bin ein bisschen mit der Railgun am verzweifeln.
Bin noch am probieren ob extended Magazin oder doch lieber Instantshot..



Meine Lieblingswaffe ist und bleibt einfach die 40mm, wahlweise mit extended Mag bzw burstfire. ^^
Aber ich brauch die blöde Railgun ja für Gen 4. xD

Bleib beim Mag und dem aufgeladenen Schuss.

Für die 50 Titan Kills Challenge am besten LTS Modus spielen, immer in Deckung bleiben und lass dein Team tanken, dann kannst du aus sicherer Entfernung einige Kills abstauben.
