Smart pistol seems to be the only reliable way to do so due to how much the titan lurches up and down after you get out.

Or you play on a team ,and not a bunch of randoms. When you are rodeoing you are the biggest target ever.
Anyone communicating will pick you off.
Easier to take out a Titan with a locked on rocket since most of them are always at half health anyway.

It makes no sense - vsync is supposedly stuck on regardless of settings, yet there is horrible screen tearing. Is it trying to use some kind of built in adaptive vsync and it's just shit? I forced nvidia's adaptive and the game looked much better. But I'd rather not have to use it at all. This seems to be the only FPS in the universe where I'd rather have floaty mouse input than a distracting horizontal bar in the center of my screen every time I turn. Fucked either way...
I'll see how it goes with it forced off, I didn't think to try. As it is I was running with a lower than normal mouse sensitivity because the jerky, quick movements in Call of Duty 2142 make aiming a bit tougher than I'm used to from years of turtle paced Modern Military Shooters. People who hipfire and jump around definitely have a huge advantage inside buildings.

Two questions: 1) Why is Sean a mod when he cannot have a rational conversation about anything that he doesn't like? 2) Can a mod prevent him from posting in non-ps3/4 threads?
All he does it shit up the place.

I think this game is going to do fine, there's something like 13ish maps and 5 or so game modes. The action is fast, not overly so, and there is a marked difference between playing a pilot or being in a Titan. Both are pretty damn engaging, but the newness of the Titan is trumping the dexterity of the pilot so far.
I didn't see/feel any slowdown while playing on the bone. The lack of 1080p in this game is a nonstarter in that the action is so fast, you don't really feel at a loss for clarity being at 798.232938472394872p.
I think that the rodeo is too easy to pull off. There needs to be something a pilot can do that is similar to what a pilot is doing to rodeo: The pilot sees the message that he's being jacked and can pop something like chaff or an electric shock (on cool down, of course) or jump out, but be placed on the top so you can duke it out. All while the titan is running around blasting spectres.
I'll put this in the Loudout/Hawken rotation.

If you give up shield, the electrical smoke cloud destroys anyone trying to rodeo. It's also quite funny to walk into a hardpoint and pop it. Of course, not having shield sucks against other titans.
EDIT: Beef, that already exists. But you give up shield. So now that more people are catching on, you have to watch and see if the titan shields to know if you are safe.

Really glad I got to play the beta because I was really close to a pre-order on this one. I have pretty specific tastes in FPS games so take this with a grain of salt:
Games are so short I never actually get invested in an outcome.
The bots are awful and annoying. I'm always so disappointed when I'm expecting a good engagement with a live player and it ends up being some bot that just stands there and dies.
The textures are really mediocre.
Titan combat is spammy and lame.
I don't like the way the weapons 'feel'.
Lethality on Pilot vs. Pilot is WAY too high.
The maps are somehow both too large and too confined. It's bizarre.
Quickplay matchmaking is bullshit in every game ever. I want a list of games to choose from please.

Custom settings? Hell, the genre was built on user-generated maps and game modes, but that was all taken away to protect profits. You wouldn't want someone doing something crazy like using your game to make the next DOTA, Counter Strike, Team Fortress, or DayZ. They might keep buying your old game for a decade instead of your 10th iteration of the same fucking shit.
PC gamers have practically abandoned the entire genre because of how restrictive it has become. Funny enough, user content is how these fucking people GOT THEIR JOBS.
Not that anyone expected Titanfall to deviate from the COD model. Hell, I said pages ago that there would be no options beyond "choose game type" when people were saying things like "oh, mods will fix that 6v6 crap."

I'm of the opinion that that matchmaking, while facilitating casual play, stifles the growth of a healthy competitive scene.

Ah yeah, I can agree with that. I remember having regular Q3 servers and players knowing each other's general skill level.

The best way to find a bunch of level 110s is to join any server with "noobs" in the title.
Once people play enough to establish whatever SPM / k/d rating they use they do stagger the teams by rating every round at least. COD matches aren't often hilariously one sided unless a party joins. The advantage of a party is ridiculous when there are so few people in the match.
