Titanfall 2 Multiplayer Gameplay
Similar to its predecessor, Titanfall 2 is a first-person shooter game in which players can control both a pilot and their Titans – mecha-style exoskeletons. The pilot has an arsenal of abilities which enhance their efficiency during combat. These abilities include cloaking, zip-lining, and parkour – such as double-jumping and wall-running – with the aid of a jump kit.[1] These movements can be chained together in order to travel between locations quickly.[2][3] The game introduces several new gameplay mechanics: a sliding mechanic, the pulse blade, which is a throwing knife that reveals the location of any nearby enemy, the holo-pilot, a holographic pilot that mimics players' action to confuse enemies, and a grappling hook, which can be used to slingshot players to a building or an enemy it attaches to. The pilots have a large arsenal of gadgets and weapons, such as shotguns, submachine guns, pistols, and grenades to fight against enemies.[4] At close range, players can execute their opponents, and an execution animation, which shifts to a third-person perspective, will play.[5]
Titans are significantly slower than the pilots, but they have stronger firearms and are more powerful. The models from the first game were removed, and seven loadout-locked Titans are introduced: Ion, an Atlas-class Titan that uses a directed-energy arsenal. Scorch, an Ogre-class Titan that uses an area-denial incendiary weaponry. Northstar, a Stryder-class Titan that excels in long-range precision attacks, setting traps, and is the only Titan that has the ability to fly. Ronin, a Stryder-class Titan that specializes in close quarters combat, utilizing a shotgun and an enormous sword. Tone, an Atlas-class Titan that focuses on midrange combat with its target locking weapons. Legion, an Ogre-class Titan that utilizes a minigun designed for defense and controlling combat zones. Finally, Monarch (added post-release via DLC), a Vanguard-class chassis that can upgrade itself on the Fly. [6] The Titans have their own sets of move sets. For instance, they can quickly dodge to evade attacks
