New mode inbound. 6v6 pilot only mode called live fire. Based on small narrow maps with 1 min time limits to kill the other team or be in control of neutral flag at end of time limit. Best of 5 matches wins. Due feb? Patch notes inc holo pilot holigram now shows up on thermal scope and ping, can be deployed on zip lines and no longer runs over titan domes.
Aye, just played Live Fire for a good hour and really enjoyed it. Maybe even more so than the regular Pilot vs Pilot. It's all so intimate and tense. Only played Stacks though, ended up switching between EVA and CAR and won all but two games (I had good teams).
Had to take a break after the last game 'caus of the shakes. Got notified that I was the last of my team left alive vs three baddies with 10 seconds to go at 4-4, spotted the flag carrier, meleed the scrub, grabbed the flag and hung on for the win whilst bullets whizzed past my head. Was a near magical gaming moment and 'twas only as I was typing this that I realised I hadn't recorded it for posterity. *sigh*
Yeah grab flag and fall back behind team is a legit tactic. Use the grapple pilot and a wall run oist grapple, you cover huge ground. Drop a cloaked pilot sniper at the back to cover a radar pulse blade pilot toshow locations and we are all good.
i played livefire. team i was on got consistently raped i was top of leaderboard for fuck sake that's bad. decided i'm not playing this without badgers
Dont get me wrong ive been on teams that have been destroyed easily. Can be a bit frustrating but bear with it cos you can turn around a 3-0 down and win, especially on The meadow one.
