DICE/EA need to add i know them adding something thats bad but any way i think that the titan should be able to re-spawn and that the shields once they go down should be able to be repaired 10% of the way no more but it will take 1min of constant repairing to get it up then it come back on-line at 10%. if the TiTan re-spawns rounds could last a long time and then we would all have a chance to destroy the titan core 4 that damed titan destructor silver badge

Are you high?

I got my titan destructor gold within.. probably 5 days of getting the game. Good for me, but that's not the point I'm trying to make.

If the titan shields could be repaired, then the match could theoretically last FOREVER. One missile does 2 damage to the titan, so... repair 10% of the titan (technically, once the shields go down, the titan is at 50 health. Every missile decreases the titan's original HP of 100 by 2.) If one could repair the shield by 10% in one minute (or at all...), well, the missiles take 2 minutes to launch.... that means that the enemy would have to hold the ENTIRE map, JUST to keep your shields down and null the work of ONE engineer. Even in that case, the missiles would have to hit in extremely close succession to bring the shields down for even a short amount of time. Keep in mind that I am only accounting for ONE engineer repairing. If one engineer can keep the entire enemy team busy pretty much indefinitely, then we have some SERIOUS balance issues. Oh, and about the titan respawn idea, well, erm, let's just say that I'm not even going to go there.


Honestly though, Fail.

Not to be an arse or anything, but there IS spell check on these forums.... too bad there isn't a grammar check of some sort...

if that was the case everyone engineer whoring the titan guns could make the round last forever.

besides the glitches in the game sometimes stops the Silo's from ever firing in that round, so the round Will last forever.

respawn would suck, engineers repairing the shields might be kinda cool, within moderation.

destroying consoles and cores is VERY easy... a trick tho, well not really a trick, just something that worked for me is to enter a titan match with less people... with a 10 person game u have 5 people to worry about so just destroy what you need to at your own leasure...

what about a commander drone like the accepter or w/e the gun drone is called that the commander can fly around the map it can only have like 10 health but it has guns on it and it can fly 900 meters away from the commander that way the commander can command from the point of view of his solderers

Or how about taking advantage of the commander's ability to zoom WAY in on his command screen........

And launch Orbital strikes.

And EMP strikes.

I've restored this post to a point that when you read it, you don't take 3 hours to decipher the goddamned things.

But the idea is still mince. Although, I've a got a little idea.

How about a commander ability, that can only be used once in a round, called Divert Power which makes the shield invincible for 1 minute. Of course, you could only use it when the shield is up.

That idea is probably mince too, but what the heck.

it would need a far longer respawn time than 1 minute, otherwise games could take vastly longer

maybe a variation on this idea, that could work, would be to make consoles reparable? and the core too, UNLESS it is completely down. as in, say the enemy have destroyed reactor console 1, and are fighting over 2, you can repair reactor console 1, which they would have to destroy again. obviously there would be little point if the core room had been breached 9 except if you have cleared the core room, of course) and if the core it partially down, have the core be repairable, but with a fairly long repair time. as in, you could prolong the destruction of the core, but not prevent it unless half the team is repairing, one more and the core can be repaired to full health, BUT if you clear the room out first, you can repair it a lot faster.i.e. say there are enemies in the core room, you would need to clear them out first to have a realistic chance of repairing the core. I'm just thinking about situations when the core has successfully been defended, albeit it has taken damage, the team being able to repair the titan, and indeed, the consoles.

Ypu haven't read my post right. You can only use the ability ONCE in a round, but the ability's effect lasts for a minute. There isn't a repawn time for the ability.

I would like Dice to add an deflectorshield at the front of the Titan so i could bounce an inverted tachyon beam from it and vaporise those silo's. Nah i'm just making some sh*t up

Agreed, jesus those rounds would last hours and hours with the right circumstances......  But I have always thought the core should be capable of being repaired by the engineer's.  I mean it is a destructable object and every other one in game is capable of being repaired, just not the core....  Perhaps though like RoosterCantrell said, with moderation, engis can only repair damage to the actual core, not just simply repairing as each missile goes in, and perhaps it takes a HELL of a long time.  Though I can see total repair point whoring starting up, still since a lot of us are generals now you dont really need to (WE NEED MORE FUCKIN RANKS BTW EA!!!).

well, I never liked titan mode anyway, no action on the ground, even less when the shields are down...  Extreme slideshow effect onboard and in the vicinity of the titan...  Rounds last for ages and 3 days........

no, not my cup of tea, and if what you suggest will ever be implemented, I have even less incentive to play titan mode

Anyway, it's piss easy to destroy 4 Titan Consoles. You just have to rush the Titan as soon as the shields go down.
Expert Titan Destruction was the first badge I aimed for when I got the game. I got it within 3-5 days of getting 2142.
And the Titan rounds last long enough as it is.

How many charges do you need per console? is one enough?
I guess shooting the consoles take to long, and wouldn't work if you go for four.
