The new map is intended to both reset players’ experience and expectations and allow room for evolution going forward. In a conversation with The Verge, developers said they’re looking at ways to improve the new player experience and give them a better experience for their first few times playing the game.
One of the things the team has been thinking about is how to balance the game across experienced players who have been dropping in for years and new players trying to adjust. In my time playing with some creators and media members, it felt like the map was designed to deal with some of the issues players have complained about, like constant third-partying, by adding more area combined with structures that keep sounds from echoing across open space. SMG is a weapon adding another Titanfall transfer to the game, but with the unique ability to switch between light and heavy ammunition. Versatility is a theme in the new season, as the new map Storm Point is the biggest one we’ve seen so far, with so many areas I didn’t get a chance to visit all of them. It’s a versatile bundle of tracking, stun / crowd control, and movement that is fun to play when you get it right and didn’t feel overpowered. Her tactical ability is the one I had the hardest time getting used to, as she fires an arc tether that shocks enemies and pins them to the ground temporarily, limiting their movement. She shoves a data knife into the box and pings the location of any living teammates. She’s also the first character who can take advantage of the death boxes fallen enemies leave laying around full of any stuff players have collected. While her teleportation ability is similar to what players have seen since season one with Wraith, it operates on a line of sight, and in some hands-on time, I found it a lot easier to use as a shortcut into or out of a firefight. Ash’s ultimate ability Phase Breach tears a hole in reality that you can teleport through A look at her character trailer, as well as that of a previously added legend, Horizon, will explain her backstory, but the most interesting thing about her is the abilities she adds to the battlefield. Ash is the game’s first playable character to make the jump directly from Titanfall 2, although she has made appearances in the game’s associated lore of comics and special events for several seasons and even served as an announcer for the game’s Arenas mode.Īsh is a simulacrum with a background that splits the difference between the game’s other mechanical characters, Revenant and Pathfinder. This all brings us to the Escape update, which adds a new island map and a new character on November 2nd, albeit one that players are familiar with.
