| d21lewis said: I recently read the Game Informer review and it said one thing that I totally agree with but didn't really notice: Every battle has a noticeable beginning, middle, and end. -It kicks off with everybody dropping into battle and taking position in the battlefield and battling each other Call of Duty style. -A couple of minutes in, the Titans come into play and suddenly there's huge explosions, epic confrontations, and desperate tactics. -Finally, when one team loses there's the race to escape the battlefield while the winning team attempts to hunt the remaining survivors down. It's all pretty epic and it happens so smoothly that you feel like you just took part in something spectacular without really realizing why it felt that way. Great game. |
My brother and I were just talking about this a couple days ago while we were playing Attrition farming wins/rail gun kills for regen challenges. The phases of each match. We also had 3 phases.
Parkour - This is the start of the match when everyone picks their favorite line and parkours to their spot like crazy. I really love spawning, running out and using active pulse and just watching the lines so many people take. It's beautiful, and vastly different than CoD or BF or something where everyone spawns and pretty much follows the same line. They then rack up points until we reach the next phase.
Titans - I like when each team gets a couple around the same time, but it seems more likely than not you have one team with 3-4 Titans and the other team with very few. But then in this case the Titan team usually gets a nice big lead, but as time wears on and their Titans get worn down and the other team finally get theirs, the score gets closer and closer. Until one team wins and triggers phase three.
GET TU DA CHOPPA - I typically don't even try to make it to the ship here when I am on the losing team. I would rather pick enemies off and protect my teammates in the ship. When I win though I make a beeline for the extraction point and try to destroy the ship.
I love CTF now too, much more than I did when I wrote this review, but it seems to have different phases too.
CTF - Pilot on pilot, tried and true CTF gameplay.
Titans, Titans Everywhere - People earn their Titans and suddenly there are Titans everywhere. I play almost nothing but defense, it's funny to step outside my base and see 5 Auto-Titans sitting there.
