Titanfall 2 brings most significant change in base gameplay, the Grappling Hook which goes well with the idea of making movement mush faster and rhythmic.
There is an option to swap the grappling hook for other perks like the ability to create a holographic doppelganger of yourself or a weapon that radiates sonar waves to identify enemies on the map.
Titanfall 2 is the upcoming first-person shooter video game developed by Respawn Entertainment and published by PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. As the releasing date of the game is approaching fast, speculations are piling up, Forbes mentioned.
Just like the previous version, Titanfall 2 remains to be a first-person shooter game where players have control over both the pilot and the Titans. Pre-alpha tech test of the game is now open to the public and many changes have been noticed in the game format. Although the tech test is very limited, including only two maps and three modes, an overall idea on Titanfall 2 can be derived from it.
In Titanfall 2, the developer has tried to solve the primary problem of player progression which is prevalent in Titanfall. From the tech test, it is evident that more weapons and powers will be available for customized combat experience.
Burn Cards of Titanfall have been replaced with Boosts in Titanfall 2. This new feature gives player an ability to build toward during a life. Currently, only two Boosts are available with tech test. Amped Guns boosts the damage of your weapons and Ticks are the spider bots to track enemies and blow them up.
With Titanfall 2, it is going to be tougher to take down enemy Titans on foot. In spite of riding on top of enemy Titan or shooting and beating its core, now you have to rip out its battery and jump off it immediately. If the battery has already been ripped off, you have to throw some grenades to kill it. An anti-Titan weapon, Thunderbolt is effective enough in clearing Grunts out but as an enemy attacking item it lacks power terribly.
Titanfall game series requires great patience and skill to shoot enemies especially when they can run, jump and ditch your tricks quickly. Titanfall 2 even making this task harder as you have to lead the enemies to shoot them off, Gamespot indicated.
