Just curious, does anyone have an idea when the DLC will be available. I assume it will be around noon EST but that is just a guess.
Well?..they are here in California.... So I assume after they get out of Rush Hour traffic on the 5 Freeway.....go in and shoot the shit with each other and tell each other how great they all are knowing deep down individually that the game sucks......have a donut...maybe some coffee........have a meeting........and ask if everything is ready to go.......they will drop it about NOON. I just read on gamespot. They are nerfing my scorch......I guess they are lowering the duration of the flame wall? They are nerfing my AWall. I guess it can be destroyed now... Same shit happens over and over with these developers.......all the people that don't want to run around in the slow ass legion and scorch hate how strong it is.........well they love how strong it is but not when it's against them.....so they complain about it because they don't have the patience to use a slow Titan.....so they bitch and gripe.........to get what they want....
Scorch's total inferno shield with the shield kit remains the same overall duration. The base time was bumped up slightly and the shield kit was knocked down slightly. As far as I know, damage remains the same.
yes, it's the update and dlc Colony! yay! this map is awesome! i like its design, textures, details, light effects, exelent for titans and pilots i'm using the new weapon, the R101, i like it, similar to R201, easy to use, accurate, decent damage and reach, and we can change the scope/sight!
got the download on both consoles but no patches or info on them. All that was delivered was Colony, R101, new Store crap and that is all she wrote unless i am missing something. I checked the FAQ but there is nothing new added. What is going on?
there are new animations for the factions navigators i like it no, no new info inside the game, strange it doesn't matter, we have the update and the new awesome map and weapon
The wife went to stir some pots a had myself a quick game. Went to Colony right out the gate and had fun time in a familiar place. Too bad we lost.
Sounds about right. You're not missing anything DARK. Those who appear pleased with this DLC can only really be in one of two camps. Suffering from Stockholm Syndrome or propagandists for Respawn. This was the argument I was trying to make a long time ago when they first released the cosmetic store. If they know they are not getting paid for any DLC content, but they are getting paid for cosmetics, what do you think they are going to spend the most time on? I would say at least 50% of the effort of this DLC was spent on cosmetics and I think 50% is even being very kind about it. I mean think about it, besides cosmetics, what was really added? One "new" (old) map and one "new" (old) gun. I mean, we are sitting 5 months deep into this game now with a grand total of 11 maps. If this is good to anyone, then they must truly have Stockholm Syndrome and be in love with their captors who are just feeding them scraps whenever they feel like it and whenever they get around to it. Also, I'm sure all this DLC is going to do is hurt me, because I actually have been playing the game more recently, only because I noticed a couple weeks ago that I could get an Amped Hardpoint game more often than before. So, gee, just when I am becoming slightly happy with the game again, what happens? Oh lets put out a new DLC with a 24/7 lobby on a new map and suck a lot of people out of the other lobbies. Great! Thanks Respawn. No matter what I do, no matter what I try to like your game, it just seems like you do everything possible to pull the rug out from under my feet.
ensc you are totally right, but, given the situation, i think this new map is a good addition, is not enough but at least is a new map i fear that they are one map and maybe one weapon, besides the store items i don't think they care about what we write here, it's useless to keep complaining, they have more than enough feedback, all depends on them i like Colony and the R101, at least we have that, i'd like to have Fracture too and entirely new maps the devs could explain what the remaining DLC's are, so we know what to expect
I absolutely love the Colony map, but as much as I love the TF1 maps and would like to see all of them added yesterday so we would have a bigger playground, every TF1 map that gets added just reminds me of everything I don't like about TF2. After 3 years, and especially the Campaign maps (where Angel City and Colony came from), I know these maps like the back of my hand, and it just makes it glaringly obvious what a humongous downgrade TF2 is. As much as I would like to see them release all of the TF1 maps, they would actually be better served to get off of their rearends and actually create some new maps instead of cosmetics, because every TF1 map inserted just reveals TF2's weaknesses even more. I played about a half a game on Colony, which like I said is a map I love, and I just couldn't take it anymore. There are just so many things that need to be changed: -remove all the campy crap (sentries, A-walls, etc.) -get rid of the Boosts and put the burn cards back -get rid of the killstreak rewards and put the default titan timer back -improve situational awareness (and get rid of that damn BOOM white shock flash thing where every death is like you got killed by the same weapon) -make titans dumb compared to pilots as they should be (titans are given way too much time to react and the benefit of the doubt) -get rid of all the cartoony crap (phase shift, Ronin in general, Scorch in general, gravity stars, fire stars), notice I'm not saying go back to TF1 titans although I would prefer that, but I am just saying get rid of the ones that make the game appear like a goofy cartoon -get the continuity back between players you are playing with and against for game and chat, so that you are pretty much guaranteed to be playing with the same 12 players (unless someone leaves) for the next hour or two (just some players shifting sides between games) and where you can give atta boys, talk smack and maybe develop some new friendships -and make the damn satchels work the way they are supposed to (throw, trigger, BOOM!), even if still in mid-air when you trigger. If you know you hit trigger and then you hear the guy shoot, even if he gets you, he must go too. Total bullcrap the way it works now. You see, like I said, they would be better served creating new maps, because providing me a map I've seen 1000 times in the last 3 years just makes all of the stuff I hate about TF2 bubble to the surface again. Oh well, I'm going to go to the better "Colony" right now and check out the latest episode of the TV show. I'm glad I invested the time in the first season, because now the show is finally getting to where I had wished it was all along. And it's Sawyer from "Lost" and Lori from "The Walking Dead" (or Sara from "Prison Break") so how can you go wrong?
Colonys real fast this time tound, great to have it back. Aog is awful with r101, give it some time and get the other scopes. Not quite the old one but a blast from the past, and still beeeautiful. Finally the weapons have been changed for coliseum mode! And the post match animations are a nice addition too. (Have they nerfed laser shot on Ion?!?! The games were a touch laggy in places though). Get rid of the pilot sentrys please!! Pilot vs pilot on colony = rooftops full of dumbass anti-pilot free kills. Glad for colony tho, keep the maps coming. I believe a 'roadmap' will be released soon with their future dlc content.
Respawn should explain what are the next dlc's, it can save us a lot of concern, complain and false expectations this last update is 4GB, for only one map and 1 reskin of an already existng wapon? the big part of the 4Gb are store items i think so the "free DLC" are items for the store i want Fracture, new maps and a coop mode asap
I think they are: "In early April we’ll be revealing a high level roadmap of some of the things were working on for future DLC. Expect to see more maps, Prime Titans, and more…" Whether its a long term reveal or not remains to be seen.
Interesting that there are no "Patch Notes" posted which in the past they have done. This "Free" DLC should be free since it offers very little of value. Don't get me wrong I think the job they did on Colony is awesome, aesthetically, but don't lose sight that it is still just a remastered map that already existed, the R-101 is just the 201 with a scope attached and a different model number - not much there. it really feels like we are being taken advantage of in fact abused! Unless they post something very soon it could be the end of any hope for the future of the community. I have noticed that the numbers on line has continued to decline and it could get worse with this latest lackluster effort...
