Titanfall: 12 Tips To Help You Survive Getting Owned Online

4. End Game

Remember when you were younger and parents or elders always used to say to you 'walk, don't run'? Well you need this sage advice in Titanfall when it comes to getting the hell out of dodge. At the end of each game, you will see the 'Victory' or 'Defeated' strap-line appear. If it is 'Victory', well done, you have earned yourself a free chance at getting some cheap kills as the enemy tries to scamper away with its tail between its legs on their little warping spaceship, head over to the extraction point and laugh as enemies attempt to scramble and escape your far superior fire power. If it is 'Defeated', you may want to consider the countdown timer before making a mad dash for the extraction point. Those pesky winners will be all over that area like flies on garbage; it is all about timing, get there too fast and you will be waiting for 20 seconds in the same spot that the entire opposition is facing €“ a sitting duck. Get there too late and you will be nothing but E.T.-esque cannon fodder, watching your parents fly away home as you are stuck on a hostile planet. It is a balancing act that affords the best players with a rich reward of points that feel genuinely earned: take your time and try to plan your exit strategy wisely, don't just panic and rush to the point, plan your moves around where the enemy is posted and unfortunately the rest is nothing but sheer luck!
