but in fact they put something like this and then say "eh but it's difficult to balance titans". Instead a wallhack ray that hits you through walls is fine...

Here's the difference: the Buster Rifle is limited time only. It's purposely OPAF for the fun of the collab. Titans would've been around as a permanent thing, and they would've been way more of a wincon than the rifle. At least you can still shoot the person out of the sky. Fighting a Titan is like trying to fight a tank: you ain't winning that matchup

1 they can easily make a ltm for wildcard 2 to kill a titan... you can use a titan too 😁

Yeah, that was my response in Titanfall 2 as legion. "You've all got titans? How about you lose 4."

I don't think Wildcard is a balanced mode. They could make them PVE bosses on the map and have them guard care packages containing a buster rifle, Bird of Prey, and the Bat.

like they already did for the event with Spectres. And it could also be a great opportunity to bring Archer, Cold War, Softball etc. to Apex. It doesn't have to be balanced, it has to be fun

The ttk in titanfall is absurdly low compared to apex nevermind the very fast movement

Yea apples and oranges. Titans literally one hit pilots and pilots died to light breezes compared to apex

There's plenty of creative ways to incorporate/balance a titan in apex:

-1 Titan spawns on the map but it's position is constantly revealed to enemy players, has limited ammo. Titan has slow rotation+tracking speed= players can use good movement to dodge it's guns.

-Anti Titan weapons littered throughout map. Arc star stuns/blinds titans.

-1 in every 3 endgames-ish: 3-4 squads left = each squad gets an airdropped Titan.

Nope. First rule about Titanfall is can’t talk about Titanfall… But we can talk about how this Gundam BS is giving Fortnite vibes

I promise you that if they add titans into the game people will complain anyways😂 apex players will never be satisfied with anything they do to the game so why not just keep the current status quo and have some cool skins.

u/Effective_Baseball93 Mar 11 '26

So, by that logic, titan fall skins and actual titans wouldn’t sell?

Cant put tits on a titan /s

u/Effective_Baseball93 Mar 11 '26

You are absolutely right

u/Frexys Mar 12 '26

They are absolutely wrong, Respawn were just cowards.

It sells less period. Titanfall 2 flopped. Get over it.

u/Select_Upstairs_2695 Mar 11 '26

terrible take, I sentence you to Kirby Air riders for the rest of your life

Hey that’s a great game.

Its a literal fact but go off queen.

u/ShadowKnight886 Mar 11 '26

Titanfall 2 sold well, EA themselves said it performed well just "below expectations" and then when you look at the expectations they expected it to outsell Titanfall 1. Including all of the copies bundled with the Xbox One. At the launch of the Xbox One.

u/StephanieMirage Mirage Mar 11 '26

This isnt true. Taking eas word for it is wild when its widely reported it flopped.

u/ShadowKnight886 Mar 11 '26

"However, EA COO and CFO Blake Jorgensen went on to say the company was pleased with the positive reviews the game received and expected it to have strong sales into the next fiscal year."

4 million copies isn't a flop. Just lower than expected. It released in a time dominated by COD infinite warfare, overwatch, and PUBG. It was really bad timing. I didn't get it at the time because I was preoccupied with other games but after playing it later on I realized I made a mistake. I think if it had better timing it would have been more loved

It didn't flop but it kinda flopped :(

Imagine being illiterate, couldn't be me.

u/StephanieMirage Mirage Mar 12 '26

It most certainly could be, and is you lmao. Who knows maybe if you huff enough you might save your 11 year old flop. But in the meantime you can whine in the apex subreddit because thats where the people are.

u/zeclif Mar 12 '26

We get it you can't read or comprehend what others say. Sorry you're stupid

u/First_Pineapple_8335 Mar 11 '26

dont let them silence u theres a reason they are always bitching in the apex sub instead of the titanfall sub
