How many of you have this? From my experience, it's a pain in the ass to get, what with:

-Your teammates going for the same pin, or perhaps the Titan Destructor badges
-Enemies defending and massacring you and your teammates when you finally get to the consoles
-Enemies making sure you don't get to the consoles in the first place
-A single console requiring a whole crapload of ammo
-Everything going on around you, i.e. making sure the round doesn't end before you blow them up

Me, I have it, thanks to an incredibly unusual round which I was only in for less than 10 minutes.

-Me, alone, on the completely deserted and undefended enemy titan. (I podded up from an APC after firing off 1 Pilum shot at an enemy tank.)
-I destroy console 2 with the Pilum. (3 shots)
-I destroy console 1 with 2 Pilum rounds and 1 or 2 Turcotte magazines.
-/me looks at top of screen and becomes anxious...our team's titan has about 10% health left and the core doors are open.
-Oh...snap. I'm out of ammo, except for my knife, 2 Turcotte magazines, and some useless items.
-Become squadleader > ask for supplies. Miraculously, I get them. (thank you commander!)
-Blow out consoles 3, then 4 with my last 6 Pilum rounds. Receive pin.
-Stock up with some more ammo, go to core (what has the enemy team been doing this whole time, anyway?), shoot off some ammo at it, then our titan is destroyed. But I still got the pin...

Do you have it? And if so, how'd you get yours?

I have 2.

First was c4, second only 1 defender (who was engi).  I killed consoles 1/3, then he showed up, so I killed him and used his engi rifle to kill 2/4.

And with the first one I got the gold titan destruction.

I have it, i had a squad of guys i usually play with help me so we all concentrated on me getting at least 3 consoles and the core at the end.  It took afew goes, but was great fun having a squad dedicated to me trying to gain my badge.  We where going for my Titan Destructor Badge Gold where u need 3 consoles and a core in a round, so i got both together.

That pin (imo) is mostly situational, when you play in the wee hours of the morning when the good squads have signedoff/disbanded and nubs are left to defend the titan like drunks trickling out of a bar at 3am.

It helps to when you are recon and the defender is support. When you kill him, take his kit, drop a supply hub and take your recon kit back... then resupply.

i think i have that 4 or 6 times, it is a pain in the arse to get then i just couldn't stop getting it, depends if ya like squad play. one recon one support, watch the enemy titan and wen its on it last shield part get ya self ready to actually get on there with ya team mate, as soon as you are both on get him to drop a supply crate in the middle, in-case he gets killed, you normally find that its best to go console 2 1st then on to 4, when thats blown leave a claymore in hallway 4 and one by hallway 4 door,(EXTRA POINTS) by that time you will have more players in the cargo bay attacking 1, this is the hard part not Tking wen ya blow ya rdx getting to 3 1st is luck.. try using no Armour as when ya get done on the titan its normally rdx or clays anyways


DOH!! thought you was on about the pin lol sorry, yer well got that too haha DUMB ARSE @ me

I got my first one with help from my mate. I was recon with C7, he was support with his ammo replenishment ability. Got on a small 16 player Titan server. No-one was defending or attacking the enemy Titan, so we had an easy time getting it, up until the end where a teammate almost got the last console before me.

Before that, I had tried many times but with no luck. Most of the time you run out of ammo or a teammate gets one of the consoles.

I got my second one last night, by complete luck. It was a largish server, and I found myself on the enemy Titan with my Clark shotgun and Pulse meter. I was going for the 15 Titan attack points you need for that silver badge. Anyway, I was completely alone on the enemy Titan, so I went for the consoles. Each one took about 30 shots from my shottie. It took me forever but I got it. No-one turned up to stop me until I was about 3 clips of ammo into blasting the core

It just goes to show, you can prepare and try as much as you like, but it's really luck that plays the definitive role in obtaining this pin.

Ya I have a couple as well. I've found the best way to get it is to play on a titan server that doesn't have alot of people on it. That sure helps. Good luck getting it on a more populated server...

Got 5, 3 were yesterday from an excellent squad.  They would setup and cover me as I deployed C7 on the Consoles and the Reactor.  All in a public game too.



Honestly people, if there's no defense on the Titan, Attack Consoles 1 and 2 before Moving onto 3&4!!!!!  That stops your team from getting bogged down in the long hallways of 1 or 2.

If there's no defense in the titan, it doesn't matter which order you take the consoles.  You're not going to get bogged down because there's no defense.

EDIT: on topic, I have a problem solver pin.  just one, mind.

I've yet to get mine. Most I've done is 3.

Ran in and blew one up with the Pilum, killed a defender and took his Voss, ran to the next and shot it apart with the Voss, killed another defender and took his RDX, blew the third up with RDX, placed my last charge on four and started shooting away with my pistol, then the enemy defenders overran me and started protecting the hallway.

Spent the rest of the round trying to get to the console long enough to drop a little more RDX but never made it.

I have two...and what a pain it was to get them, I have yet to replicate the feat.  RDX + support guy is the best way to go, if you have a small squad, since it takes him *forever* to take out the console himself.  It was a blissful day when I got that pin.

it does make a diffrence as the you destroy the less the silo guns have to do, so i always try abd get 2 b4 they swarm all over the place, but if there is no defence you have a valid point

Unfortunately you can't check this on the EA stats page, but I suggest it's around 6 pins which came along the 127 consoles and 8 cores while going for gold destruction. This numbers won't change for a while, since I'm collecting assault time now, but they (consoles of course) will increase rapidly as soon as I hit the 8,000th kill in Titan mode. (It's really annoying that you need a wait-for-the-perfect-round-"Problem Solver Pin" for the "Meritorious Titan Medal" and just a no-effort-at-all-"Explosive Efficiency Pin" for the "Meritorious Conquest Medal".)

I got veteran explosives very easy. Titan > Enemy had blown up console 1 and 3, so I defended console 2. Put some C4, became invisible to plant it, ran away - I see an enemy, "boom" I get about 7 kills Got several pins and badges that round, we even ended up winning! (they had all boarded the titan while we were guarding the silos)

I only got it once, because I was support with the Clark and there was only one defender. For the last console, I had to team kill my squad leader in order to get it.
