Expedition is now live for the Xbox 360. Downloading it now
Game has been out 3 months LMAOA fix for matchmaking? Too little, too late Respawn.
Same here, actually traded in Titanfall. Am looking forward to a price drop/sale to snag it again.Yeahhh . . . I've been out of the game for a few weeks (thanks, Watch Dogs!). Definitely coming back for this update though. "Too little, too late" definitely does not apply here!
Thanks. That's OK with GCU, but aiming for, at most, $20. Plenty to keep me occupied 'til that happens.It's $45 now at Best Buy.
As part of the crowd that bought this on Day 1, it sure as hell is too late to fix it. A lot of early adopters move on from what feels like an empty online matchplay game. It's obvious there are still plenty of folks playing it still like yourself but you'd be kidding yourself if you don't think plenty of people have also moved on from the game as well. I'm surprised it took this long to fix the matchmaking problem.Game has been out 3 months LMAO
I never knew that! Thanks for posting that, as I meant to look that up but stopped playing a while back.On another note, for anyone wondering how to wall-hang, you have to press and hold the aim button while running on a wall. Alot of ppl probably knew this, but a majority didn't, as the game never taught it
As I explained before though, it is an indication of time played. Why keep track of statistics like that if they won't be used to match opponents against one another in some fashion? A rank 11 can kill a Generation 7 Rank 15, but that Generation 7 should be much more familiar with the game, map layout, and weapon setups. That's not to say that the skill level of the players may not somehow be the same, but why not match players closer in rank against one another; it's not like there's less than 200 people playing the game and matchmaking is desperate to connect people.Rank/generation is not an indicator of skill. Anybody can reach Gen 10. It might just take more time for some. I've killed plenty of Gen 10 players and had plenty Gen 1 players kill me.
It seems to be helping a little bit.So how are the matchmaking changes? Thinking about starting this up again but I'll pass if it'll just frustrate me again.
That link explains that they would sacrifice skill matching to make full player lobbies faster, which is supported by the complaints of people on message boards. While the design is to match based around skill, tracking skill is still not flawless. Even the guy who designed True Skill for the Xbox platforms has stated this. He pointed this out when interview by Major Nelson.Because they actually do Matchmaking based on actual skill and not a number already? There was a link posted earlier that explains it all but here it is again: http://titanfallblog.com/2014/05/23/respawn-provides-an-update-on-titanfalls-matchmaking-system-ctf-returns-to-pc/
Essentially they are trying to match based on multiple things, one being skill which is different then your rank. You don't see this. Yes, somebody higher ranked may be more familiar with the game, but that would be reflected in their skill in the background.
Rank also doesn't unlock anything other than extra customization slots. Your weapon unlocks are determined by completing challenges. You could be level 50 and not have unlocks for the CAR and I could be 15 and have all of them. If you're going to match based on what items are unlocked you're opening up a completely different can of worms.
I already did... Literally, the last post...Please explain how matchmaking based on an arbitrary number would be better than based on skill besides just giving a false sense of security based on perception.
The team that made this game is made up of people who made Call of Duty games. I'm seriously amazed a sequel hasn't already been announced with a Holiday 2014 release window.By the time the MC Collection comes out I'll probably be ready to uninstall it and hope a sequel comes in the next couple years.
Well apparently respawn is working on an unannounced project with newly hired Stig Asmussen(god of war 3 creative director)to man the same post. Plus that was activision forcing them to make a title every 2 years while treyarch would make a title every other year.The team that made this game is made up of people who made Call of Duty games.

It's very luck based, imo. Just keep at it. A lot of times I'll be in the right place, at the right time, but then they camo when they eject so I don't even get the chance to kill them. Unless you're using the arc cannon, make sure you are fully reloaded before they eject. I missed so many potential gooser kills because I had to reload while trying to shoot the ejecting pilot!!!! Talk about frustrating. Luckily it's only 5 now instead of 50.... otherwise I would've just given up and stayed on Gen 5. Lol.The gooser challenge to regen 6 is seriously ing annoying.
I'm not there yet but I'm definitely not looking forward to it. I still don't have my achievement for killing ejecting pilots, nor do I have the "pull harder" one.The gooser challenge to regen 6 is seriously ing annoying.
Yeah, but I wouldn't be surprised if that could happen with this title in some way. EA still loves money too. They might find some other studio to do something with it if they think it could be the next Call of Duty type of moneymaker.Well apparently respawn is working on an unannounced project with newly hired Stig Asmussen(god of war 3 creative director)to man the same post.

All of your view hinges on Titanfall's matchmaking working correctly. If the new update finally fixes this then fantastic. Good thing it only took them months to get it to work.No, you didn't explain how it would be better other than giving a perception of being better. Again, working towards challenges, weapons that are unlocked, etc all would be reflected in skill. If I'm working towards the gooser challenge at the detriment of the game that will be reflected in my tracked skill. Personally I play to try and help my team and work on challenges to the side. So in your system I'm going to be put with players sacrificing the game just to work on challenges because I'm the same rank? That makes no sense. Not only that, but I'm an average player. I'm not great, but I hold me own. I've put a lot of time into the game though. So because I'm a higher gen player I get stuck with other players who are higher ranked rather than people who are at my skill level? No, thank you. Again, all of your argument hinges on unlocks and making people BELIEVE it is balanced. If you are a lower rank player and can get as many kills with what you have unlocked as somebody who is higher with more unlocks, then that will be reflected in your skill. If you struggle with what you have unlocked that will also be reflected.
Before the gooser challenge I had only killed one ejecting pilot and by total luck, I fired my rocket salvo and he ejected early as I was pounding him.I'm not there yet but I'm definitely not looking forward to it. I still don't have my achievement for killing ejecting pilots, nor do I have the "pull harder" one.
Really? Joining mid-game doesn't count? I hope that's true, now I can quit out without penalty. I hate joining mid-game, whether my team is winning or losing. It's 2014 and they still haven't added a multiplayer option for those of us who would prefer to wait in the lobby for a brand new game... smh...All of that information has been given out by Respawn. Yes, there is a penalty for leaving a game. If you join a game mismatch it does not count as a loss (or win).
Yes. I am also a huge Bulls fan. Gamertag: The Matt YoungAnyone need someone to play with? I don't have much friends on XB1 since my main group still has to get theirs. I'd be open to partying up with a group if anyone needs a person.
You can add me if you want I've started playing Titanfall again. Although just for the heads up I work for most of the day so I'm only on at night.
Thanks guys, I'll add you guys when I can.Yes. I am also a huge Bulls fan. Gamertag: The Matt Young
