Rise is a tight, close-quarters map in an abandoned desert reservoir, made up of towering walls, long sight lines and zip-lines for pilots to traverse while Titans fight down below. The first of the two new maps, Rise, is a remaster of an original Titanfall map and is also available to play in Frontier Defense mentioned above. New maps will be added in the future, and winning 10 matches of Frontier Defense will unlock Titanfall 1 lobby and Frontier Defense music. At launch, only five maps are playable in Frontier Defense mode - Homestead, Forwardbase Kodai, War Games, Rise and Blackwater Canal - which can all be played on Easy, Regular, Hard, Master or Insane difficulty levels. Completing Frontier Defense matches will earn you 'Aegis Ranks', a new progression system for Titans which can be used to unlock powerful upgrades that are essential for surviving higher difficulty levels. The update adds Frontier Defense, a new four player co-op horde game mode, two new maps - Rise and Township, new limited edition purchasable Weapon and Titan warpaints, as well as several new balancing fixes, which can be found in the full patch notes here.įrontier Defense tasks players with defending a harvester through five waves of increasingly difficult enemies, allowing you to spend cash earned from defeating enemies to stock up on gear from the modes Armory. Hopefully there will be Titanfall 3 someday, and I will purchase it immediately on the first day, just like I did this one.Announced last week, Titanfall 2's latest free content update is now available to download on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Origin on PC. I'm frustrated at the devs for pulling the plug on this masterpiece, so much potential is being wasted. Weapons, their recoil, sounds of your Titan getting deployed to your location from Orbit with huge BOOM, characters, voice acting, the banter between people and your Titan, movement, the exciting fall from the dropships to the frontlines of the action as a Pilot, the thunks of your Titan's footsteps - all wrapped up in a beautiful, unforgettable experience that will take you from sad to happy - and everything in between. Both has its own unique flavour, but never not fun. This mode will feel more like being a regular Pilot in the Frontier, using your masterfully built upgradable Titans whereas in the campaign, it's more like "The Chosen guy that ends the baddies" vibes. Banter between your commanders / support buddies - Droz and Davis will have you laughing and provide moral support against the massive enemy count. But once you complete it, the feeling of "F*CK YEA, we DID it!" will fill you up - especially on harder difficulties. You thought the campaign was tough? Yeah - these PvE maps will push things even harder. Grab some of your friends, upgrade your Titans in a way that is not available in the PvP, and defend various objectives against hordes of AI enemies, including buffed up Titans. Now, my fav part of the Multi - Frontier Defense Co-op. Newer players will most likely get stomped on, but hang in there Pilot! You'll learn what's what eventually, as the campaign really just gets you prepared for multi - playing against other human Pilots and their Titans require a whole different mindset and reflexes. Also there are different playable characters with their own unique skills (grappling, invisibility, static shields exc). Each Titan has different weapons, loadouts and strategies to play, there's a decent learning curve. Multiplayer is really fun as its own thing. Each chapter of campaign making you feel satisfied, in a "Oh $hit - we managed to do that!" way. You'll end up saving each others lives through numerous occasions. Not in a statistical, +1 Strength, +5 Armor, +3 Dexitery way - more like you will feel attached to the big fella, and him to you, in his own, robotic way. The amazing feats you pull off together and each baddie you slay will improve that relationship. As the bond between you and your giant partner gets stronger, you feel like you can't (don't want to) part with your companion. Once you get inside that thing, it's a whole lotta different bada$$ery that should simply be experienced by yourself, not be read through words. Obviously best part of getting better is learning the nooks and crannies of your Titan - BT 7274. As he gets better campaign wise, YOU, the player get better as well, pulling of sick wallruns, stealth manuevers, impressive shots while sliding, from air or ground. The story of Cooper, a simple yet talented soldier who wants to become a Pilot, rises to become one of the best killing machines in the Frontier. The videos, cutscenes, gameplay, dialogues - everything makes you feel like you're a bada$$ Pilot. So I thought that it was time for me to give a massive thumbs up and review it. I just keep coming back to this beauty - even after all these years. Campaign is one of the best single player experiences I've ever witnessed in my gaming career.
